Looks like 2012 is the year of not giving a eff, because everyone is doing the most. Noted singer/songwriter Brian McKnight has been under twitter attack since Monday, when he released a snippet of his latest song, “If Your Ready to Learn”. Why is everyone tripping or LOL’ing you ask? Well in the song he sings to a women, saying “let me show you how your p*ssy works, since you didn’t bring it to me first”. He then went on twitter defending his decision to record the song and even admitted that he will be finishing it and releasing it in an upcoming ‘adult mixtape’. Check out the video below to listen to the song and also look at some of his responses on twitter. He really tried it!
ROFL!!
( SPOTTED ON: MISS JIA & TWITTER )
I agree with brian,people are getting sensitive over the wrong the shit,people should be outraged over zimmerman getting out on bail,not over brian mcknight singing about pussy,people are so damn stupid with no common sense,that im really starting to question us as human beings right now seriously.
Fresh87 – I hear you loud and clear and agree; however, think about a young man singing that to your daughter… He put out good music in the past w/out getting as vulgar. He doesn’t have to bring a hook like that to stay relevant – he had me at One Last Cry.
@jessica..if a young man was singing a song like this to my daughter i wouldn’t feel no kind of way,cause as parent i would explain stuff like this to my daughter before hand,so when a guy does sing a song like this to her,she would know not to take the guy seriously and laugh in his face,i don’t blame brian cause it’s not his job to raise other people kids,it’s the parents job,there are way worst song’s out there than really need to checked,not this,trust me you’r daughter is gonna listen to some rihanna,lady gaga,etc before she get to some brian mcknight,the man has been making good song for 25 years,and when he does a parody song people wanna be sensitive? people worry about the wrong shit.
Huh? The man said he could make a woman squirt! Lmao! If that ain’t the epitome of freaky shyt, then I don’t know what is. How you almost 50yrs old talking bout making women squirt and teach you about about a p*$$y? This negro done lost his mind.
Fresh87 I can’t believe you’d fix ur fingers to type that. You should teach ur daughter that a man should be respectful and loving – not using pornographic imagery to describe love making. What in the hell is wrong with the music industry?
Over hyping!! The song sounds like all his other songs except for the word Pussycat!
He needs to get lil Wayne on that shit get rid of that lame ass beat and then we talking.
He needs to tell men how a vagina works not a woman cos men still to this day fumble around not knowing what the hell to do..
@ London-I partly agree with you; men don’t know their way around a woman’s secret garden. He better know how to do some thangs if he’s putting it out there like that.
@Fresh87-YES the music industry has gotten crazy as hell; BUT that still doesn’t make it right for ANYONE let alone Brian to put this out there like that. Does he have children/girls? IF so I wonder what he would say about her listening to this song or a young man, oops let me rephrase that, a young boy because a real young and old man don’t want no parts of this song. IF you know what you are doing, you can say it with a subtle message and the song will still be just as powerful. Yeah maybe I am sensitive; I like for a man to RESPECT me. So if you like it like this then don’t be surprised when you get disrespected and treated like a tramp. I like it freaky; but you don’t need to speak on it…let your actions speak for you PRIVATELY. Oh and to answer your question, people are outraged over Zimmerman and have given support; THIS is something new.
YUP I agree! This stupid generation of parents and kids I swear
After watching, I understand the concept a little better; however, he could have used a different word for the hook. Much of today’s music is not what I listen to or appreciate, although there are a few. Mr. McKnight – I respect you, but would not like this song released; even on an adult mixtape. Can you imagine a little girl/boy singing this song out in the streets? They can barely read on grade level – some of them. If this is where the music industry is going, it’s not pretty. Creativity and responsibility go hand in hand. Thank you.
I think the song is inappropriate too but can people stop using the what about the kids argument. You know damn well kids have no clue who brian mcknight is lol. Even I forgot this guy existed.
I’m full grown and don’t wanna hear any song singing about pu$$y squirting… If he hasn’t sung songs like this in 25 years,why start now? Oh, I know, to sell records.. He forgot about his fanbase..What happened to bowing out gracefully..,play Vegas or something. He played himself. Somethings need to be toned down.. And by no means I’m I a prude, I just see too much f#ckery going on and it’s considered the norm.
LOL! IT WAS SO FUNNY TO HEAR HIM SING THAT LINE!
@JESSICA…..he must have to do this to stay relevant or he wouldn’t be doing it. smh……….
If he ain’t been relevant in all this time; he will never be again. He needs to stay in his lane; THIS will not be good for him. He sounds like an old FOOL.
Keith Sweat was about the go this route with his last album. He was saying some mess you hear from these baby singers.. They can’t forget the people that have grown with them,too busy trying to be popular with the watered down generation.
GO TO WORLDSTARHIPHOP AND SEE THE EPISODE OF ‘MARIN’ WHEN BRIAN MCKNIGHT WAS ON THERE SINGING TO GINA… WITH THESE NEW X-RATED LYRICS!! LOL!! I’M DONE!! THIS IS TOO FUNNY!!
*MARTIN*
ROFL! that Martin video was hilarious.
THAT’S ONE OF THE FUNNIEST VIDEOS I’VE SEEN ON THE NET EVER! LOL!
Please provide the link haha…i want to laugh
@CHUCK…just go directly to http://www.worldstarhiphop.com
(SCROLL DOWN YOU’LL SEE IT, IT WAS POSTED YESTERDAY)
I am no goody 2 shoe BUT this is just too much and from him!
sorry Brian but no matter how you try to sing or explain it, the chorus is just dead wrong.
It was kinda funny, but weird. It’s like Luther Vandross singing missy elliot’s pusscat song. lol I still wouldn’t make an issue out of it. You can kinda tell he was just screwing around.
I’m like OMG. but hey it’s for grown folks. I dont like the “p” word so it’s a bit much for me…. I get it though… Ha
People should be upset about GMO crops, poisonous fluoride in toothpaste, a socialist society, and let me stop because I can go on and on.
A socialist society really? That’s why the income disparity is so large right bc we’re in a socialist society -_-
Gloria who says people are not? Why do people assume that just because someone goes hard on one issue that they have forgotten about all the rest? Right now; we are talking about Brian’s issue.
Why isn’t the fact that this song is a complete PARODY and is Brian’s personally subversive, overall comment about the deplorable state of today’s “R&B” being recognized here, people?? Obviously he wasn’t going to seriously release this song. Smh…the uproar this has created goes to show not only how society is highly hypocritical – b/c ppl WILL accept such deplorable lyrics from Lil’ Wayne, Trey Songz, etc., but it’s not critical nor analytical enough to realize when b.s. is being shoved at them. Smh… I interpret his video to pose a question to society about how/why we’ve let music be degraded to a state it is in now where sex, promiscuity, and genitalia are glorified lyrically instead of substantive lyrics and true musicianship. Sheesh!!
Thank You!!! I was thinking the same rassclatt thing!!!
If it was any oh dem lot it would go to number 1 but cos it’s an older man you lot want to hype up!! Calm the rass down!!
COSIGNING LIKE CRAZY!!! if it was anyone else this would be an anthem by now… smh at all the overnight socially lyrically conscious people who are more concerned with this than the music and artists that young people actually listen to
You can not compare Lil Wayne or Trey Songz with Brain McKnight.. are you serious?? Brain McKnight is old enough to be their father. Trey and Wayne came out the gate singing about sex so it’s expected by their fans. I’m not saying to boycott or go crazy, but someone has to be an adult sometimes. He didn’t have to go this route to prove anything,rather it’s serious or not. If you are passionate about your craft,you only need to prove it to yourself. He did this for attention.
@Indigo-Cosign. I’m sick of folk bring other lame artist into the mix; THEY ARE WRONG TOO in my book.
@LEESHALU-No, Brian said this was a PARODY; believe me if he could get away with it he would’ve released it. IF society weren’t in such an uproar over it; he would’ve taken that as a sign to release. That’s what they do, put it out there and if it doesn’t do well then it’s a “syke”…get outta here with that…you can’t tell me anything.
at MINDRIGHT ….EXACTLY!
If Trey Songz was singing the same song, people would be all over it. To be honest, I don’t really wanna hear Brian McNight saying the “p” word either. Its as if he is trying to stay relevant or appeal to the younger generation by making more sex influenced music, but we are use to him making romantic, sensual music, not overtly sex music, if it was an artist like R.Kelly if would be different because we’re use to his rauchiness and over sexed music, but not Brian. He actually does sound good singing the song though, lol.
Hahahaha! I love it! Brian McKnight’s voice is so smooth! The words make it funny! It’s about being provocative like… “N***s in Paris” hahaha! Gooooo B!
I’m sorry, but Brian this is a fail. I see you are trying to keep up with the young crowd with this, but leave this to Trey Songz please. These words coming from just don’t sound right at all. You have been sappy for way to long to be trying to do a song like this. And the music isn’t even sexy. It sounds like it it belongs to one of your lovey dovey songs. It’s actually rather disturbing :-/
The was song was a parody.chill
I think it’s funny! I was like wtf!!!!!!!!!! LMAO!!!!!!!!
I’m not feeling it….sounds like a song for a comedy scrip….LMAO! It’s weird something this vulgar is coming from Brian Mcknight, since he’s a veteran in smooth R&B. Leave the nastiness to the youngins and R Kelly. He even looks crazy singing it.
SMH–No words. Lord,please we need you now……………
There is never this much negative feedback on more perverted songs by Lil Wayne and others which is exactly Brian’s point. Wake up people. Don’t miss the message…this is a parody.
I lost all my respect for Brian and for him to sit there and try to justify it. He’s trying so hard to be relevant. I hope he doesn’t have kids. We got Mary p*ssy popping for some chicken in a tortilla and now this..smh. What happened to real RnB.
Well..hot damn Brian!! He really want to show you how that p*ssy works uhh? lolllll…I’ll love MB!!
Again, another artist that we are complaining about but who has us hooked watching his video, listening to his lyrics and spreading his name across the net!! HE WINS!! His mission was accomplished in my book! lol
I see that the Parody part went over some people’s head….welp lol
please don’t take this video seriously y’all, come on…
I think whats got everybody tripping is the fact that it’s Brian McKnight!! They can’t believe that it’s the man who gave us “One Last Cry” or “Back at One”. It’s not the words to song it’s the artist behind the song. People jammed to Uncle Luke—Doo Doo Brown, Akinyele—Put It in Your Mouth and Wayne’s Pussy Monster…all which are graphic and explicit material of “the pussy”. Hell even Trey Songz and R.Kelly could have gotten away w/ singing this hook! For 25 yrs Brian has made his fans comfortable and this new song got everybody on edge.
this song didn’t become a “parody” until all the blacklash he received. Brian aint fooling no one! He was so serious about this song until he seen how people reacted; then he pulled the “it was a joke card.” He truely TRIED IT! (added by Mobile using Mippin)
Are you serious? 25 years of him writing/singing love ballads,and now he all of sudden he want’s to change his style? use common sense,the man was clearly joking,if the man was serious he would of did this a long time ago lol
@FRESH87….so i guess he’s joking about the upcoming mixtape too huh? come on!
@ STOP LYING-I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU. Had it not been an uproar over it; he would’ve released. BUT some people can be told ANYTHING and they will believe it…LOL WOW.
@MACK..yes because it’s a mixtape,not an album.
Why can’t he sing a freaky song? I ask, what is in your ipod now? Bet there is some vulgar song by another artist. Someone asked why a 42 year old man would be singing those lyrics, cause a 20 something dont know how to do what he can do to a woman-lol. Plus, he sounds so good singing those lines compared to the no talents whom we except these types of songs from. Ya kids already singing vulgar stuff from the songs you have in your ipod. I say release it!
LMAO that was hilarious!! C’mon now so just because he’s a certain age he’s supposed to stay singing love songs and whatnot?? I say, if he wants to sing about the “p” word…then let him…I don’t have a problem with it, it’s music. As far as the children are concerned, the PARENTS are supposed to teach them right from wrong, and what a freakin double standard as well–ya’ll saying he shouldn’t make songs like that but you can have Rihanna, Weezy, and any other artist sing the same thing and not get the same reaction?? CHILE PLEASE!!!
This is pretty gross. It’s kind of like if someone wrote a song about the birth of their child (like Jay Z did), and started getting really descriptive about all of the disgusting details that nobody wants to hear about. It’s lustful and disrespectful.
Still sounds like a love song and the word does not fit in the hook well. He aint the “R”. Sounds lame and like he is trying too hard. I like Brian, but that was whack and he needs to go bk and try again. Funny to hear him sing that though.
uh, folks? This is the same guy who sold over 22 million and had Christmas albums that done better than Jay-Z albums. Do your research. His career on a terrible day has outlived the careers of many.
Trey sings about it and you swoon. A man twice his age with 4 times the musical talent and sexual experience sings about it and you’re confused. Go read a book!
Yes, give me a break! The brainwashing that this generation has succumbed to is unbelievable!
Oh, this is a hilarious “parody” but Cedric the Entertainers,skit that was clearly a parody, was called coonery? HA! I wish more people thought for themselves,the world would be a much better place.
Won’t ya’ll shut up and start over go listen to his old songs, the REAL music. Leave this song for the kids. I think he should do a song with Beyonce and it would end all that. lol
WOW from the responses on this thread; I can see why society is the way it is. SO becuase the Lil Waynes and Trey Songzs sing these songs and are popular by the youngins; it should be alright for Brian to release this song. Well he can; but it won’t sell…because it doesn’t sound right coming from him.
The responses are sad… There are alot of misguided, angry folks out hear with this “I don’t give a f#ck,as long as it has bling,bling” mentality.
*here
He is telling the TRUTH!!!
Yall need to kill the noise…if Jay Z or Beyonce would have sang it, it would have been hot!
FOH!!!
Listen to Jay Z’s verse on TALK that TALK with Rihanna!!1
Yeah………….I thought so!
Brian McKnight carry on please! Dummies worrying about the wrong stuff
???
Check out this parody of B McKnight’s “Let me show you how your pussy works” titled Dr Brian McKnight – OBGYN
http://youtu.be/uSo3njFre0Q
If it was all a parody, why is he still recording the song and putting it on his mixtape? Granted, he could have made a great point about music today if it had been, but this is not the case. Reading is fundamental
uhh,cause maybe the whole mixtape is a parody!
Yeah, ok. We will see. Now if he comes out with this mixtape of adult songs with this particular song on it than youre argument is all mute
And all these ppl using the “if trey/kelly can do it, so can i” argument are missing the point. They are all wrong for doing it, its just that trey/kelly and others have been consistently vulgar and fans have seen that as their norm. Brian can not expect this gimmick to be taken seriously because his brand is not that norm.
This is something P Diddy would like, Take That; Take That:( Lol… Brain this song should personal with one you love, I’m just saying…
a lot of grown ___ women never had an orgasm…teach em brian LOL
A song can not teach a woman how to have an orgasm… If that’s the case,”Strokin” and “Kandy Licker” would have been done that..
those 2 songs u mentioned say nothing about teaching!…i suggest u listen 2 tweet’s masterbation song “oops” btw… a LOTTT of women DON’T think they can squirt & MANY don’t have orgasms!!!
O! bye the way look for BET, To bane this one..
Really, I think you have too much time on your hands. This is so disrespectfull to all women of any age. There is no way i want to a man tell me how to work my p#@@y. What can you tell me or show me. For a man to have sons i bet if you had a daughter you would not be making this kind of music.
You can call it what you want.. I am use to hearing the sexy ballads by Brian..And was totally shocked by this.. I am a mother of a six yr old. And it is hard enough trying to seperate the good from the not so good music with all the explict lyrics.. i mean the last thing you want is your child going to school singing songs like this and then getting a call from their school stating they where saying explict stuff.. You seem to have a whole lot on your hands and do not have to worry about if you kids would even say stuff out in public like this cause why cause they are adults…But us folks that have younger kids well that is different.. I say leave it alone and stay with making ballad songs.
lmaooooooooo!
Lawd…Now ppl are doing covers! LOL

Hahahaaaaaa
Im mad because its so gross, he’s not know for that you can’t sing back at one then turn around and sing show me how your pussy works
I feel sorry for Brian Mcknight. He is trying to get publicity, and it worked, but the wrong kind. The sad part is that he has children. He is too talented to stoop this low with his music.
brian mcknight??are you having a mid life crisis?
boyyyyyyyyyyyyy shieeeeeeeet, LOOK dont listen to them brian u know keep it Xrated for the grown folks, the ones that r mad r just haters n single
First of all, Kids now-a-days know A LOT about sex, so that comment about what if little boys and girls hear this is bullshit! I’m pretty sure they’ve heard about what he’s singing about and more from people either in their home or out on the streets! Second, I feel like if he wanted to do something like this, it should’ve been along time ago, so that people would somewhat get used to him singing about sex. For him to do it now, no one really respects it, because that’s what their used to from him. Third, he still has an amazing voice, so I feel if he wants to do an ADULT mixtape, by any means go for it! The fact that it says ADULT MIXTAPE means that its ONLY for the ADULTS! not the kids!! So if someone’s child listens to the whole mixtape or even a couple of songs, then that’s on them. Having someone sing about making a girl squirt and actually seeing a girl squirt either from experience or watching porn is the same thing! And there are a bunch of kids that watch porn, so IF they do decide to listen to his mixtape, it’s nothing they haven’t seen before! That’s just my opinion!
I think it is funny as hell, so over it…I mean it is what it is, HE SOUNDS GOOD!!! hahahaha, that is a mess tho, hahahahahahahahahahaha
I wish all y’all judgemental mofos would chill. I bet everyone who has something negative to say weren’t following him the day he asked the fans for suggestions and then came back with the song. I’ve been a fan since 1992 when the first album was on cassette tape. What does his age have to do with anything? So men aged 42 shouldn’t have good freaky sex? GTFOH!! I can’t stand all y’all negative ass people who hide behind your twitter handles and say all kinda shit that is hurtful.if you don’t like his music or him…..don’t listen to it, don’t buy it and don’t follow him.
What is the difference between him, usher, or trey songz singing about sex? His age? Thats irrelevant. I actually like it and it will be going on my ipod. #BOOM
why cant he say, let me show u how your body works….stupid.
Sooooo…..we are listening and witnessing the beginning of the end of his career. Perhaps he should forward it to Trey Songs, Chris Brown or Miguel.
I am against artists being pressured to put themselves in a box because it stifles their creativity. But this situation isn’t about creativity. It’s about using a cheap, tacky marketing move to draw attention. These lyrics are just straight nasty and vulgar. I am a fan of Brian McKnight and I think it’s sad that he has reduced himself to this level. The reason myself and others are disappointed is because Brian has always carried himself with class and dignity. He has been like a modern day Nat King Cole to us. Can you imagine Nat King Cole pulling some mess like this? Hell no! Because he had standards. We just thought Brian did too. Oh well…
he was very horny at the time & prob watching porn!!! LOLOLOL
Brian has been making women wet for 25 years. Now he’s doing a song about it. Someone shows a little humor and people give up on them and thing its the end of the world.
Isn’t one of the lyrics something like “teach you how your pussy works” or something? Boy, boo. You can’t satisfy anyone if you think you’re the expert of their body. GTFOH w/ that.
Ladies and gentlemen, lets be serious. This song is going on an adult album and some songs, pictures, and videos should be left for the grown and sexy. I have two daughters and it all depends on how you raise your child. I do see your argument that you would not want any young boys singing these verses to your young daughters; however, the truth is the hip hop industry has targeted the younger generation and some of those song are offensive and degrading. This song is of a sexual nature that should be appreciated by men and women.
