Danity Kane continue to set women's rights back deacdes with new video

But it's quite a catchy kind of socio-political backpedal, isn't it?

That was the video for "Bad Girls", the new Danity Kane single that isn't anywhere near the brilliance of "Damaged" (but frankly, friends, what is). Yes, we have deep seeded problems with Danity Kane, one of which being their total inability to make a video that doesn't make us want to keel over and die, but with the stale state of pop music at the moment, we're saddened to say we'll take what we can get. At least they didn't make a sudden turn as heart surgeons in this promo.

:(

On another note, of all the decent R&B acts at the moment, why the hell would Missy choose to make her comeback writhing in a tracksuit with Danity Motherfucking Kane? We know the velvet glove of Puff Daddy reaches far and wide across the land of hip hop, but couldn't she have at least hooked up with Rihanna? Fuck, Ms. Kelly? ANYBODY? Missy, you embarrass us, you embarrass yourself. We like your hair though.

All this does is make us miss Aaliyah more than we already do. EVERY DAY IS A STRUGGLE.

:( x everything in the world squared.

Now seems a good a time as any to say that we've never really given a shit about Danity Kane

...but "Damaged", despite clearly being avoided by DN staffers for several months, has definitely grown on us. Be it the 20 Fingers-style vocal edits (and you can never really go wrong with 20 Fingers-style vocals edits), the drum pattern lifted pretty much without reserve from "Maneater" or the fact that the song is firmly setting back feminism by decades with the most RI-DI-CU-LOUS lyrics of the year ("Oh hello, Mr. Handsome and Strong Gentleman. Being a LADY, you see, I am incapable of joy or satisfaction without having one of you big, strapping gents around to poke my hoo-ha with your muscle-stick. Mind having a go while I writhe around in a dress inspired by my male stylists bedsheets etc etc") but we just danced around our bedrooms to it, three times. Of course, like all American girl group songs, the track catches the fast train to Snoozeville after about 2:30 minutes, the "My H-E-A-R-T is D-A-M-A-G-E-D" bringing the last lyrical LOL before some lame ass rapper lays down some boring spoken word bits (because you know, there has to be a dude on it for people to take it seriously) but the fact of the matter is "Damaged" catchy as hell, and did we mention the vocal edits? Amazing.

So yeah, we like "Damaged" by Danity Kane.

Here is "Damaged" by Danity Kane.
