Andy Grammer — “Honey, I’m Good” (2014)
Andy my dear, we dare you to talk to a young woman these days and try to call her “honey” while you do it. We get that it was meant to be endearing, but you may lose your head if you try that kind of thing in 2021. Let’s not even get started on the contents of the song itself. Grammar wants to pick someone up, but resists the urge. Women everywhere, rejoice! You’ve been spared from hearing him sing this song all night.
Willow Smith — “Whip My Hair” (2010)
Who can forget when Will and Jada’s youngest sprung onto the scene in 2010 with a song so catchy that it even made its way onto Saturday Night Live. “Whip My Hair” might not have been a lyrically genius track, but it sure showcased just how much talent there is in the Pinket Smith household. Willow repeats that she’s “whipping her hair back and forth” in the song, and these days it’s a powerful statement about empowerment, especially in the black lives matter movement.
