HOT OR NOT: SHONTELLE - “LICKY”

Monday, October 26, 2009


♫ Shontelle - Licky
ALTERNATE LINK

Check out the new first single from Barbadian singer/songwriter Shontelle, “Licky,” from her sophomore album of the same title.

Shontelle first made her splash into the scene last year, with her mildly popular hit, “T-Shirt,” from her debut album, Shontelligence. On her sophomore project, Shontelle has decided to change the direction a little. She declared, “I’m going much edgier. There is a rock chick waiting to come out of me.”

no sense of direction whatsoever. she claims she wants to be edgier and rockier (ie. swagger jack Riri) and then she comes out with a song that sounds EXACTLY like Britney’s song “3″. NEXT PLEASE

XOXOXO

This is a cover. The original song was a dance hit for ‘Princess Superstar’ here in Europe last year. Check it on youtube.

Monday, October 26, 2009 /

Yeah, Grohimna..as soon as I heard the “L I LICKY C K LICKY Y” I thought she had stolen the song! Are you sure its a cover and not just sampling it/stolen? Because the only exact similarity is the ” L I LICKY C K LICKY (phrase)”

L-I- Licky… WHAT?! Lick this and taste that…

WHO exactly is this music MEANT for?!

Is it the same as watching sick nasty evil videos of adults getting kids to dance and wine-up they waist and sexualising EVERYTHING? Is it the same as Lil Wayne and Kelis exploiting kids sexualising ‘Lolipop’ and ‘Milkshake’ to bring a sexual message? And this song has no thought and NO SHAME!

NASTY.

If ya gonna do that, at least make the song good.

Right so Rihanna probably wants her to go down the whole ‘disturbia’-'good girls gone bad’ route
Okiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiie
Sometimes I look at Rihanna and all I see is a front like shes trying oh so hard to maintain this fashion icon-new beyonce-edgy thing

Brittany Spears just sent me a text….she wants her sound back.

Monday, October 26, 2009 /

man she’s a cute chick, but they have to figure out what she’s gonna do musically..As a consumer..I dont get it..in this climate you have to buy into the artist and they just haven’t figured out how to make her believable to SOMEBODY..ANYBODY..

the song grabs a piece from female DJ, Princess Superstar’s song Licky..it’s a good idea but the overall production and songwriting seems a bit old..

This song is so annoying .. I’m probably going to have it stuck in my head for the rest of the day now ..

And her song “T-Shirt” isn’t that bad. Hated it at first but it definitely grew on me .. they used to play it allll the time on Flow 93.5 (Toronto).

yo Brian you the biggest fool ever on earth. first cause you posting some crappy quality here, that’s not even a decent high quality mp3 and second cause you posting so much wrong infos all the time regarding the producers/songwriters and when I hit you up in a friendly manner so you can correct it, you can’t even hit me back. not that I need a fucking answer from you, but at least change it. I swear I am going to start hate your homo ass with a huge passion!!!

I thought that it was DAWN from Danity Kane with a new hair color! She’s ugly! What I can’t stand about this chick is that she was in LAW SCHOOL but dropped out because she got offered a record contract! What a f**king big mistake! Why would you just quit school like that? She should have finished first before signing a deal. This song is nasty and just stupid. I’m sure she’s talking about licking and sucking on a man’s you know what. I’m tired of these sexually explicit lyrics from these “singers.” I know that people on here are going to think, why are people comparing her to Rihanna, but the truth is, she, like many other new female singers, go “edgier” because of people like Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Beyonce, even Britney Spears. It’s a shame. They’re supposed to be the epitome of a superstar. It’s all about image, “fierce” style, sex appeal, catchy lyrics… everything that a SINGER shouldn’t consist of.

Anyway, she, like many new singers, is obviously trying to hard and I’m not sure if people will feed into this.

Obviously there are alot of Bajans/caribbean people posting on this post.

Yall are haters. Who the fuk wadnt drop out of school if they had the once in a life time chance to sign a major singing deal. You guys have no clue. And of course she is still trying to find her sound/image…she is a new artist and sometimes it takes time. Not eryone is perfectly manufactored like Lady GAGA.

26.

brand new

Monday, October 26, 2009 /

This song sucks and her other sound was just fine. She just needed more promotion. People are dumb and will buy anything so you can just walk out there with a potato sack on and people will think you are original. With enough promotion people can easily be brainwashed into thinking you are original ie LADY GAGA. I hope Shontelle goes back to her old image and gets herself some more promotion.

Monday, October 26, 2009 /

I think Shontelle needs to return to her old mediocre sound. At least, its was not completely dreadful like this mess. This sounds like some Britney Spears reject, and no one but Britney can sing shit like this and make it hot.

@truthfullyspeaking - shontelle FINISHED law school just so you know she is intelligent and if you don’t like her music - DON”T FUCKING LISTEN - I like it I listen - no need to start insulting the girl - on top of that she’s growing as an artist as every artist who came before her had to grow so either watch the process while it happens or go hate on someone else

35.

neon

Monday, October 26, 2009 /

hate it and i’m mad that everyone wants to be “rockish” now. first riri now her, people who know NOTHING about rock, its history or its impact yet want to jump on the bandwagon b/c they think edgy equals cool

@meme education comes first and i think it’s sad that you think it’s ok to forgo your education in order to be a star (which isn’t easy anyway)- she had better chances at becoming a lawyer, learning, and making money but now she’s reduced to an industry puppet that most people won’t respect and makes cra**y music

i’m predicting that livvi franc will do better than her since “i’m that chick” was doing really well.

I agree with #34 if you dont like it dont buy it!!!!

Shontelle is AMAZING!!!! LOVE HER!!!!

I hope there is still some reggae/soca/dancehall inspired things on her album!

Why is everyone so bothered that she didnt finish college……SO WHAT!!, she had one semester left to finish, if you were offered a record deal you know you would take it!! She can go back to school anytime!

STOP HATING ON EVERYONE!

the lyrics are stupid but i like the beat. i don’t get why she’d wanna change it up…she should stick with r&b. why does nobody wanna do pure r&b anymore? it can sell if you do it right.

Monday, October 26, 2009 /

First of all I am a Barbadian. We are called Barbadians and use the term Bajan as a slang version so please stop calling people ignorant for saying Barbadian. That is the correct word….if you don’t know just shup up ok #46 and only us Bajans really use that term.

Second of all Shontelle did not go to Law School or finish Law School. She has a Bachelors degree with a double major of Political Science and Law. Its not the same thing. That degree does not even qualify you to attend Law School in the Caribbean. Again, if you don’t know just shut up.

Hey why don’t you artistes from the Caribbean do some music from where you are from? Just saying…

I’m just wondering why is it that all these NEW Caribbean artistes have to do the same type of songs everybody else is doing?

Wouldn’t it be different if you all were to use more of the island rhythms/style/slang in your music and give this pop/r&b music a different SOUND…?

Just asking?

@music lover, I think the reason why most caribbean people don’t do the music like soca, calypso, and reggae, is because if you look at the history, a few have tried this route, but its just not lucrative in mainstream america. How many Americans would really buy a strictly reggae or calypso album? Most of the caribbean artist, have to water down their sound or change it to appeal to the american audience. For example Sean Paul, The kind of Music Sean paul markets to America, is totally different from his usual hardcore dancehall sound, also Shaggy too. They had to infuse the music with a little pop and R and B to make it work. Many Caribbean People prefer the original Sean Paul sound, as well as the Hardcore Shaggy, So they necessarily would not pick up the americanized version of Sean Paul’s, music, but the strictly Jamaican one. Also for Shontelle, I personally think she sounds better singing her dancehall and Soca tinged songs, but when she did that song with Beenie man, how many americans even heard it. Look at Kevin Lyttle with his hot soca hit Turn me On, after that, you haven’t heard anything else about him in America, but he is still back home in St. Vincent making hits, but that type of music for some reason would not get played on the American Airwaves. In the Caribbean, however all types of Music is played, that is why Caribbean Artists sometimes venture into other sounds.

OMG @ Mari #62. You sure ur not Shontelle, cuz i swear u made that so clear. People dont understand that caribbean artist CAN NOT go to America and make caribbean music and think its gonna sell. People hate on rihanna but homegirl making that paper, thats what you have to do to appeal to the masses. Caribbean people are so ignorant….they hate on Sean Paul, Rihanna and bascially anyone caribbean artist who ventue out into other music.

what the hell. I <3 her song battlefied. But what is this nonense. & at @ 64MEME you couldn’t anymore wrong. Sean Paul is doing great over here. In the UK. His doing very well all over Europe. Fine was in top ten and Press it up is at least 5 or something. It’s working it way up. His always been popular with blazin, gimme the light etc.

He didn’t have to water down his accent either! or change his look. haha.. cough

Fair enough rihanna didn’t want to be obscure. But her dialect is more American now. When you look at her the average joe wouldn’t know she is Carribean/Bajan. whatever it is.

Shontelle is confused, she just gonna sell her soul like rihanna did. This has got Womanizer all over it. I actually liked battlefied, pieces and t shirt. smh

@67 I don’t agree with Meme that caribbean people are hating on caribbean artist who change their style. Some people from the caribbean get it and some don’t. I personally know what it is these artists are doing, its marketing themselves to a wider audience. I do agree with meme when she says that caribbean artist would not sell as well if they release the sound out of the caribbean in its pure form. Although you say sean paul is selling well in the Uk, his music is still not in its original dancehall form that made him a big time artist in jamaica. Listen back to tunes like deport dem and so on his classics, and you will know that the songs that you are hearing from sean paul now, is not what caribbean people are used to, they like the dancehall hardcore sean paul, and he knows that, thats why when he put out a song for the caribbean market it sounds nothing like the ones released stateside. I don’t think rihanna water down her accent, its still there, but she trys to speak so others will understand what she is saying. If she goes back to barbados, I’am sure she can speak pure bajan back home. Also even sean paul in an interview with Wendy Williams say that he trys to speak so others can understand him better in America, but when around his Yardie folks, he put on the pure jamaican undiluted grammer.
