>“OMG” feels unmistakably like an endgame. In keeping with Will.iam’s >mission to destroy/subvert pop music from within, it is the product of >two men mad with the furtive knowledge that the public will embrace >anything they release, no matter how transparently ridiculous and >insulting it might be. And releasing a single called “OMG” with >Will.i.am is as insulting and ridiculous as you can get.

>Usher and Will.i.am broadcast their contempt for everyone and >everything with their dispirited delivery of couplets like “Honey got >a booty like pow pow pow / Honey’s got some boobies like wow oh wow.” >These are grown men that wrote that song, men with families and homes >and mortgages, men who command respect in their communities through >virtue of their money and power alone. These professional musicians >have a powerful forum to communicate their ideas. Instead, they chose >to write the lyric “Honey got some boobies like wow oh wow.”
