Real Talk Tuesdays: Kelly Rowland

DateTuesday, April 5, 2011 at 8:55AM

Our local Hip-Hop/R&B station, HOT 105.5, plays absolute garbage.  All the boring, ridiculous ringtone top 40 crap.  Music for pea-brains and 9 year olds.  The ONLY time I tune into that station is between noon and 1pm for DJ Mondo's throwback mix.  If I'm out and about during those hours I'll flip over, listening for tunes that I've forgotten about.  Yesterday I hopped in the car just as the throwback mix was ending so the first tune I heard (unfortunately) was "Motivation" by Kelly Rowland featuring Lil Wayne.  Ugh.  Here's the first verse:

 

Oh lover, don’t you dare slow down
Go longer, you can last more rounds
Push harder, your almost there now
So go lover, make my mother proud

 

"Make my MOTHER proud"???   Yikes.
