♫ HOT OR NOT: HOLLYWEERD - “MONKEY”

♫ Hollyweerd - Monkey

Let me reintroduce you to Hollyweerd. Back in January, we featured them in our artist spotlight section, and they got a swelling response from readers, other blogs and even some label executives.

So, they felt is was time to give the public another taste of what they’ve been grinding on. “Monkey” is that just that - a wild, loose animal, all over the place, a lot different than their previous track, “Have You Ever Made Love To A Weerdo?” But the group is still going strong and working on their debut, banging out cuts with a few different producers.

I think its hot. Kinda puts you in the mind of N.E.R.D or Gym Class Heros. Im definitely going to keep an eye on them. What happened to the dude signed to Timbaland?

*****I’M NOT FEELING THIS SONG AT ALL.

I LOVED “HAVE YOU EVER MADE LOVE TO A WEERDO?”, BUT THIS ONE SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING I’VE HEARD B4, LIKE SOMEONE SAID ABOVE, N.E.R.D. OR SOMETHING.

I LIKED “WEERDO” BECAUSE IT WAS DIFFERENT, BUT HOT AS HELL.

BUT THIS ONE IS KINDA GARBAGE. SOMETHING I DON’T EVEN WANT TO LISTEN TO TWICE.

GET BACK TO THE “WEERDO” SOUND AND FEEL.*****

Such Magnificence

I love, Love, LOVE me some Hollyweerd…I need them to come out with an album, like ASAP.

I really like Hollyweerd, I listen to “HAVE YOU EVER MADE LOVE TO A WEERDO?” almost on a daily basis, but this new song sounds a little too much like N.E.R.D. or something Seeing Sounds, which I love. But I’m sure Hollyweerd wants to be considered pioneers of something new and innovative. But maybe it will grow on me, but I’m a fan of the sound nonetheless. Keep the music comming!!! Hope ya’ll are blessed with all the success in the world!!!

I WAS ABOUT TO DIS THIS BEFORE LISTENING TO THE WHOLE THING, BUT AFTER GIVING THEM A CHANCE…

THAT HOOK, NAH I’M NOT FEELIN IT AT ALL. THEY NEED TO COME AGAIN W/ THAT PART, BUT THE REST OF THE SONG IS NOT BAD, THEY SHOULD’VE STAYED W/ THE OTHER BEAT THEY SWITCH IT W/…

IMMA STICK W/ N.E.R.D.

let's not lie

i’m at the library so i can’t hear it but i’m liking the comparisons to nerd and gnarls barkely. gym class heroes on the other hand suck. nothing they do sounds different or refreshing. i really hope you guys were off about the gch comparisons

This is how you can tell ish ain’t real. Why does this WHOLE track sound like they were trying TOO HARD??? If you weren’t trying too hard, then the message and the song would have came across but it didn’t. It seriously sounds like a bunch of ADHD kids let loose in the music room. I’ve read rave reviews about “Weirdo” so I’m open to that but if they keep sounding like a wack rip-off of Fatty Koo (remember them?) w/o the R&B tip… its a “NO GO” for me! Sorry if you think I’m a hater but this ish sucks MAJOR.
