The far more interesting verses have a Europop lilt that redeems the incoherencies which I won’t deign to call gaucheries. This one is an especially mediocre addition to the catalog– it constantly approaches cleverness but can’t seem to achieve it.Īlfred Soto: It’s hard to think this horny nerd fascinated me half a decade ago, yet here he is, slathering his falsetto over a song about an activity I would not recommend in fall 2020, even should your state move to Stage Two re-opening.

Jacob Sujin Kuppermann: Jason Derulo makes pop songs that sound like hornier variations on the ersatz pop songs they put in family movies. Anyway, this song may be trash but it is MY TRASH which is why I cannot give it the it so rightfully deserves. (Is it a sample I forgot? Who’s singing it?) This song is just “Talk Dirty,” complete with obnoxious hook, but Derulo decided to take the tackiness down a few levels. And yet, I cannot help but love this unapologetically terrible song that will mostly be remembered by people googling that “ta-ta-ta-ta” bit.

In between his incredible earnestness for Cats, the fact that he just makes the damn song over and over again, his unashamed horniness, his lyrics that toe the line between good taste and tackiness, and “Ja-soooooon Derulo”, the man is practically laughable and a walking cliché. Katie Gill: I just can’t hate Jason Derulo. Roasting a Jason Derulo song for being asinine is like roasting the sky for being blue. Oliver Maier: One of the most flagrant bids for TikTok success since that other Jason Derulo single that came out this year and almost totally forgettable bar the stuff it cribs from “ Attention” and “ La La La.” I’m not losing sleep over it. Thomas Inskeep: This inexplicably popular, smug C-list-at-best singer has never made a good record, and this one, which features the appalling lyric “I bet you taste expensive,” is no fucking exception.
