"Bang Bang" by Jessie J, Ariana Grande, and Nicki Minaj

Another short post today. My son loved this song when he was younger - he liked to dance to it. It had a good beat and, let's face it, a toddler's idea of dancing is just jumping up and down really fast. Which is pretty fun in its own right. Besides - this three-way collab is fire emoji.

Sure she got a body like an hourglass
But I can give it to you all the time
Sure she got a booty like a Cadillac
But I can send you into overdrive (oh)
You've been waiting for that
Step on up, swing your bat
You see anybody could be bad to you
You need a good girl to blow your mind, yeah

The story behind this song is pretty simple. As if you can't tell from the hella dirty lyrics (in particular, Nicki Minaj's super suggestive rap bridge), it's about three girls vying for the attention of a guy. This song is 100x funnier if you imagine the guy they're singing about is the hot barista at Starbucks and he has no idea the girls he's serving are having naughty fantasies about him over their lattes and frappucinos. That's my alternate music video idea for "Bang Bang." Somebody needs to make that happen. I need a good laugh.
