Mediaocre Song of the Week: "I'm Hot" by Angelina Pivarnick







Angelina Pivarnick, an ex-cast member of Jersey Shore has decided that being a Reality TV star is just not enough, especially with the abuse from the other members and having a "good" voice, making her want to expand to other entertainment markets, like music. The self-proclaimed singer and rapper released "I'm Hot", featuring Andy Stein after her leave from the show.

Pivarnick's vocals should be commended, just like Rebecca Black's. You can clearly tell that these two are musical "geniuses", especially with their strong and meaningful lyrics. Apparently the message that everyone wants to get across is that no matter how old you are, whether you be thirteen or twenty-two, everyone wants to party and hang out with friends. A great dream right there. At least our eyes are saved since there is no music video; I cannot say anything about our ears though.

Also apparently Pivarnick is "so hot, I'm like an ice cream cone with a cherry on top" but when were ice cream cones hot? I guess in Jersey they have hot ice cream.

Mediaocre Song of the Week: Please, Turn it Down



Kim Kardashian has now joined in with the many reality stars who have dabbled in the art of singing. Her new single "Jam(Turn it Up)" premiered on On Air with Ryan Seacrest on March 2, 2011 and was also premiered on itunes that day.
The song is completely pointless. Kim, although not the best of singers anyway, has no emotion in singing the song at all, or at least it seems to be that way. Also, the lyrics are the same as many other pop songs of this era, about partying, and asking the DJ to turn the music up. There is nothing distinguishing Kim from any other pop start except for her voice. I also have no clue as to why there is gibberish in the beginning and sometimes throughout the song.
There is also one thing i noticed. Kim strangely sounds like Hillary Duff when she was 16 years old on her album "Metamorphosis". Hillary Duff was good, but only for her age. Kim being 30 years old should amount to be just a little more than 16, especially with all of the mention of alcohol in the song.
The one part i do admire about this song, is that proceeds are going to the St Jude Children's Research Hospital. As much as i am not a fan of this song, I do have respect for Kim, especially knowing where the proceeds are going.

Mediaocre Song of the Week: More Like Friday Night Nightmare



Rebecca Black, a thirteen year old “singer”, became an overnight sensation thanks to social media outlets like Facebook, Twitter, and Tumblr. Black’s song “Friday” took the internet by storm for better or for worse. She even gain recognition by being dubbed the next Justin Bieber, which I cannot say is entirely great, but fame is fame.
Black was able to show off her “impressive” vocals with the strong use of auto-tune but what peeved me the most, besides the horrendous singing, was the music video. Who lets thirteen year-olds drive cars? I do not know which state you live in but I am pretty sure that is illegal, especially without parental supervision.
Black may have became an overnight sensation but if you cannot decide which seat to sit in, how about you stick to studying and stay off the road.
