Shakira

posted by Travis

Never thought I’d be posting Shakira but whatever… “She Wolf” has taken over my life. Best Top 40 pop song of 09, whatever you say. Who knew she’d end up making hipster disco but good move. Not sure if the cheesiness of this video is on purpose or a fortunate misstep but loving it either way.

Still, no one does Charo better than Charo:

    Shakira has really strange dance moves. Flexability? A++. I can't make an honest opinion of this song because I feel I'm biased due to the fact that there's an MTV logo in the corner. Call me a baby back bitch. Autotune sucks.

    john hill of santigold is responsible for this….just heard it in the grocery store in bedstuy and it was magic. i mean, shakira is a total dork, right? perfect for the hipster world.

    I just (& only now) found out that Bravery's Sam Endicott co-wrote this song.. And I'm like omg (or wtf it depends).

    Now I listen to this song with a different ear…

    song would be 10x better if she'd have done it in spanish, and the mix wasnt centered around how strong her voice is. thats how you can always tell mainstream electro from the non.

      she did its called "LOBA"

  • Neil

    She did do it in spanish. Look for "La Loba".

    AMEN. I have been so addicted to this song. I find her awkward dancing so endearing, and the non-awkward dancing almost gave me a boner. Almost.

    I dunno how Shakira is gonna code this song in Spanish, where "la loba" means the tackiest girl around. Well she is not that far from there. At least this video made me laugh.

    I DONT know why everyone just thinks shakira is like some beyonce or britney spears and just shows up at the recording studio and drops her voice on a track.. she has co-production credits and all of her songs ever since she first came out.. not alot of artist posses the creativity that she has.. call me crazy but she really is a musical genius in spanish and one day her english stuff will come close to her spanish language material.

    it took me a while to like it but now im completely loving it. there's nothing wrong with some mainstream – if it's good it's good! who cares.
