Sexy Bitch

Lately I have been interested in examining the ways in which masculinity influences pop culture, especially the music industry. Many of today’s popular songs contain lyrics that promote masculinity while degrading women. Ironically some artists even go as far as to acknowledge the demeaning quality of their lyrics. Consider the following set of lyrics from David Guetta’s song “Sexy Bitch” and the accompanying music video.  
 
Sexy Bitch by David Guetta (Featuring Akon)

Yes i can see her
Cause every girl in here wanna be her
 
Oh she's a diva, feel the same and i wanna meet her
 
They say she low down
It's just a rumor and i don't believe em
They say she needs to slow down
The baddest thing around town
 
She's nothing like a girl you've ever seen before
Nothing you can compare to your neighborhood hoe
I'm trying to find the words to describe this girl
Without being disrespectful
 
The way that booty moving i can't take no more
I have to stop what i'm doing so i can put on my clothes
I'm trying to find the words to describe this girl
Without being disrespectful
 
Damn girl
 
a sexy bitch, a sexy bitch, a sexy bitch
damn girl
a sexy bitch, a sexy bitch, a sexy bitch
Damn girl yes i can see her
 
Cause every girl in here wanna be her
 
Oh she's a diva, feel the same and i wanna meet her
 
They say she low down
It's just a rumor and i don't believe em'
They say she needs to slow down
The baddest thing around town
 
She's nothing like a girl you've ever seen before
Nothing you can compare to your neighborhood
I'm trying to find the words to describe this girl
Without being disrespectful
 
The way that booty moving i can't take no more
I have to stop what i'm doing so i can put on my clothes
I'm trying to find the words to describe this girl
Without being disrespectful
 
a sexy bitch, a sexy bitch, a sexy bitch
damn girl
a sexy bitch, a sexy bitch, a sexy bitch
Damn girl
a sexy bitch, a sexy bitch, a sexy bitch
damn girl
a sexy bitch, a sexy bitch, a sexy bitch
Damn girl, a sexy bitch, damn girl
