Anyway, here is the music video. I like the sharp contrasts created by the use of black and white.
Some like the song with the exception of the rapping parts. I would like the rapping far better if the lyrics were less lazy and actually made sense. They also don't really seem to have anything to do with the rest of the song, which makes me wonder why they were included. I prefer Dizzee's lines to Big Sean's. I actually kind of like Dizzee's part. Big Sean's lines make absolutely no sense at all. Jessie's lyrics are fine. I suppose overall, it would have been better to have left out Big Sean and Dizzee.
Here's a section of Big Sean's lyrics (the lyrics are highlighted in orange and my comments are highlighted in green), as an example of how irrelevant they are:
Today I woke up feeling like the mayor Random.
I spent 'bout an hour looking in the mirror Vain.
As I should, as much as I've been through Feeling sorry for himself.
It's a wonder I look this d**n good Vain again.
I'll probably make it out [of] any situation that you try to put me into This is actually one of the main themes in Jessie's music.
If I swim with the piranhas it's guaranteed that Imma probably have a fish dinner Random, vain, and irrelevant.
So those are pretty much my thoughts on one of Jessie J's more recent songs. Once again, I can't wait for her second album to come out!
