Does anyone else find Akon's "Smack That" a little creepy and disturbing

He sounds so sad and desparate, especially with his high, Michael Jackson-esque voice and the dark minor melody, and the lyric "Smack that, til' you get sore" would probably sound gross in any song. The prison associations don't help either.

I find it worse with just the sound though.

The video also features a cameo from that guy that's in like every skinemax movie ever.

Yeah, "And plus I got a pal"

Eminem's in every skinemax movie ever? I wouldn't put it above him.

Ha.

I mean the dude playing the cop, obv. Does anyone know that guy's name? He really performs that bit with undue brio for a music video walk-on.

Anyways...."Kick it like Tae Bo" makes me wish I could uninvent the simile.

Yeah, that is just one of the most terrible lyrics EVER

Eric Roberts is in Skinemax movies? I've only seen him in the Mr. Brightside video before:

Or is there another cop towards the end played by Randy Spears or something? I only watched the first couple minutes and got bored.

I forgot that he was in Best of the Best though. I used to love that movie.

And how can s/he let Akon "smack that ass all on the floor"? Will he pick him/her up and slam his/her bottom repeatedly on the floor? I hope this person is light, and I don't understand why it would be fun to do.

Come to think of it, Shadow/Gallardo/TaeBo might be the worst rhyming lyrics ever.

― A-ron Hubbard (Hurting), Wednesday, 18 October 2006 12:57 (twenty years ago)

It's gross and retarded but not creepy really. Eminem sounds like a guy who's been drinking since noon doing Eminem kareoke.

― Eppy (Eppy), Wednesday, 18 October 2006 13:24 (twenty years ago)

Oh, like Eminem hasn't been a self-parody for several years running.

― Rodney is a group! (R. J. Greene), Wednesday, 18 October 2006 13:31 (twenty years ago)

Yeah but before he just sounded lazy. Now he sounds busted.

― Eppy (Eppy), Wednesday, 18 October 2006 13:41 (twenty years ago)

at least he still has role models like you setting a good example for him, em might still pull through!
