Has anyone heard the new R.Kelly song "Sex in the Kitchen"? I was listening to the radio on the way home from work and the song was making its debut on the airwaves. The D.J. asked people to call in and say what they thought about it. I did not hear a single negative comment.
Now, despite everything, I think that R. Kelly is a very talented singer/songwriter/composer. This new song has a very catchy tune. But I really think it's time for him to pull the plug on songs like "Sex in the Kitchen". For those who may not have heard it, here's a snippet of the chorus:
"Sex in the kitchen/over by the stove/put you on the counter by the butter rolls"
The gist of the song is about how sexy a woman can be while she's doing something as simple as preparing dinner. Applaud that man. He's right. Women don't have to be dressed to the 9s to be sexy. BUT, I don't appreciate his visual.
You see, my personal belief is that some things are better left to the imagination. There's no need to make a song about it. I guess if we live long enough, someone will make an entire album by bringing a microphone into the bedroom (or kitchen, as it were), put the sounds over a nice beat, and call it the new hotness.
If people want to get it on in the kitchen, the garage, or in an airplane...more power to them. But don't give us the play-by-play, and then put it to a soft, sensual beat. Next thing you know, I'll be simming (that's humming and singing) a song like "Sex in the Kitchen" at all kinds of inappropriate moments.
I distinctly remember feeling the same way about the song he did with B.I.G. back in the day called "I'm f-----g you tonight". I mean really.....MUST we be so crass?
