The above is the instrumental version of the complete track – There’s a rap by Princess Superstar on there that’s kind of awesome in her “I am the female Eminem” way, and includes the great/terrible/hilarious “I’m gonna spit my saliva/You’re definitely the worst of all time-a/You know what definitely doesn’t feel ya?/My vagina” – but it’s not on YouTube for whatever reason. Luckily, what I really love about the song is the music, so let’s go with that. Because, listen to the way this just goes; from the drum intro to the bass-led crawl of the song, jangly guitars and handclaps, this is a marvelously funky reappropriation of all manner of small pieces of soul and r’n’b music, jumbled together into something that sounds like it could’ve come from any time from the 1960s on up before the rap is laid on top. Shawn Lee – for he is the one responsible for this – you are a great man. So great, in fact, that I’ll even forgive you for this:
