Make Your Own Date Rape Jam For Only $2.99
Have you always wanted to blame your casual sexual encounters on the Goose, but the words just never came out right? Put another way: Do you have a bunch of date-rapey sentiments to unload upon the general public, but don’t want to have to use your recognizable, human voice? The “I Am T-Pain” iPhone application is here to help.
According to Pitchfork’s review of T-Pain’s new democratization of the Auto-Tune, the function “can make anyone’s voice sound like that of a sex-addicted robot. I just tried it; it works.” T-Pain has plenty of sketchy drunk sex jams to choose from, but the sketchiest is his lasting contribution to Jamie Foxx’s Blame It (On the Alcohol). Give your $2.99 to T-Pain, and let’s review:
Date Rape Anthems: Reader-Submitted Edition
Blame it on Jamie Foxx. Since I began outing popular date rape songs, the nominations for “rapey” tracks have been pouring in. At this point, I’m having a hard time finding a song that’s not secretly about acquaintance rape. Below, your picks.
Date Rape Anthem: The Music For Misanthropes blog suggests 50 Cent featuring Justin Timberlake’s “She Wants It.”
Relevant Lyrics:
She she, she want it, I want to give it to her
She know that, it’s right here for her
I want to, see you break it down
I’m ballin’, throwing money aroundShe work it girl, she work the pole
She break it down, she take it low
She fine as hell, she about the dough
She doing her thing out on the floor
Why It’s So Rapey: Hmm, how does 50 Cent know “she want it”? Oh yeah, she’s a stripper. Who flirts with you for money. Not the same thing, 50.
Top Five Date Rape Anthems
Date rape has been getting some pretty heavy rotation on the airwaves since Jamie Foxx’s latest single, “Blame It (On the Alcohol),” dropped. The song details Foxx’s pursuit of an increasingly drunk lady in da club, and features T. Pain, who chimes in on his vocoder: “Couple more shots you open up like a book.” If you want to know what it’s like to be double-date-raped by a movie star and a dude who speaks only through a vocoder, this song is for you.
But Foxx and Pain aren’t the first to make raping someone you know into record gold. Below, five of the most notable date rape anthems in recording history.
Date Rape Anthem: Jamie Foxx’s “Blame It (On the Alcohol),” in which Foxx attempts to fuck a woman who “says she usually don’t” but that he knows is “frontin” because “she don’t wanna seem like she’s easy.” (But she is). Foxx knows she’s ready to admit she wants it when “she spilled some drink on me / And now I’m knowin’ she tipsy.” My neighbor has this song as her ringtone.
