Okay, there comes a time in a man’s life when he needs to put his foot down and speak his true thoughts. He must raise a fist in the air and staunchly defend that which he holds so true. He must take up arms, be it in this case at the keyboard of his computer, to speak out boldly, and hold fast to his ideals. So I am going to take this time to express my honest feelings regarding Paris Hilton’s return to music as of today. The hotel heiress, who doubles as a resident Ibiza DJ, a title which used to hold an air of prestige, has dropped her lead single from her upcoming sophomore album; a pop-saturated, floozy track that is covered in glitter and serves as the perfect way to make anyone’s ears bleed relentlessly.
Okay, that was mean. Really though the single titled, “Good Time” is your typical 2013 electro-pop, party primed, bouncy dance track. It showcases Paris’ unparalleled skills as one of today’s most cutting edge lyricists, as she sensually rolls around in sequins and sings about how many fucks she doesn’t give, and party rocking and what have you. The pop element is then exponentially multiplied as Afrojack is listed as producer, shockingly, and Lil’ Wayne lends a hand too, dropping the most typical Tunechi verse over Afrojack’s club-ready tune. The track also comes accompanied by a frivolous video of splashing around in pools, glowsticks, vodka and smoke cannons, with Birdman nodding in approval to what is sure to be a coming party anthem. It is art; in its most pure and beautiful form. With Afrojack ready to put out anything that the kids will bop to, and Lil’ Wayne’s YMCMB record imprint hosting the release of Paris Hilton’s upcoming second studio album, the three come together on this track to deeply sadden many people, alluding to an intersection of pop, hip-hop and dance music that makes me fearful for the world my children will one day live in.
A part of me almost wishes that Paris would just take a page out of Miley’s book and find more entertaining ways to absolutely mortify her father. Part of me truly hopes Paris can find a better way to impose a skewed sense of pop culture upon impressionable teens and parents who will simply shake their heads in utter disappointment. But why my beloved dance music, Paris? Why?
Okay, that too was mean. But honestly, I can already hear this track all over the radio and I can already sense the onslaught of over stimulation this track will receive. I’m prepared to accept it, I hope you are too. Who knows, it might even grow on me with time. But until then, I find this is the best way to share my vehement opinion and stand in the defense of dance music. Maybe this is just a hiccup, and after this Paris Hilton will unceremoniously disappear into irrelevance, maybe this is the next big thing. We shall see.

It's all about the money these days. This is sad. For all parties involved.
WHY?????
FTSHIT!
i cringed at the autotune in the first chorus… "but thats ok cause your wiiiittth me".. everyone involved in the production of this track should be embarrassed.
She sounds exactly like the girl that sang "I'm a Barbie Girl"
actually, I would say she looks more like the girl who sang barbie girl…
Jon Moore Not gonna lie, if you remove the lyrics, and auto-tune, the beat is pretty good.
Lene Nystrom?
Wow, I don't know what to say other than this is a embaressment to this production crew. Paris Hilton isn't a singer, she's a nuisance in this video. Way to go team on this one. You just got kicked in the balls.
Someone needs to sit Afrojack down and have a serious talk with him.
When lyrics are about absolutely nothing and written in one afternoon goodluck convincing me your not simply trying to milk the scene. all you pop stars better realise your days are numbered. We dont need your shitty vocals and we never have. Boo woo afro jack for selling out!!
This one is on Afrojack. We knew she was a vapid, talentless zero before this. No forgiveness, I will not buy anymore Afrojack tracks. Let's make this guy fade away.
afrojack got layed, that's why…
I hope with all my heart and soul that this, and the people involved, die in a fire.
well there goes EDM.
aaaaand its gone
They tried to push this Euro sound to the Uk for years it didn't happen, then the European borders opened and now you can't escape this shit in any Uk club. Our clubs used to be great. I blame Guetta for the whole crossover thing. Fuck you Guetta
I am betting money he's screwing her again.
This is worse than Rebecca Black and Friday. Afrojack just sold his soul and is now dead to me.
That is the worst music made to date. And this is another confirmation to anyone that still believes Lil Wayne is talented, that he's not.
Afrojack already sold his soul when he started working with dick heads like Pitbull, no news here!
I love you so much. Your words are snappy! My boyfriend has to "adjust" every time she's on the tele or what-not. I'm a DJ and a musician. This unholy trinity makes me ill.
