Stuff like "Friday" are only redeemed by awesome parodies like Brock's dub.
Internet, provide me an example for Cher Lloyd. As for haters?

Autotune is "in" apparently. When did crap become "in" again? But yeah, your example proves she actually has chops.MiracleOfSound said:
I cannot stand Autotune - argh - I hate it! The sound it makes on peoples' voices makes me want to puke out my ears.Redlin5 said:
Good thing we have musicians left who also know what's crap! XDMiracleOfSound said:
[sub]I'm okay for now, I spent the afternoon at the local Jazz festival listening to my dad play with his group. Nothing beats live music![/sub]
Wow, the "Everybody's Russian" bit caught me by surprise!Redlin5 said:
I managed to last in the OPs video until she started using the tune to "Darlin' Clementine". It's terribly written, soullessly generic pop garbage, so it'll have about 10 million views by the end of the week and make millions of dollars.
If I could go back in time, I think I would destroy autotune the day it was conceived. Of course, I'd be putting thousands of singers out of a job, but somebody has to be evil dammit....
Depends on the context in which it's used. For a more recent example lets look at the Brony fandom that's sweeping the internet like the Borg sweep through a sector of space.LobsterFeng said:
If you've ever dove into one of the threads that pop up you'll immediately notice the two sides of the inevitable argument that pops up regardless of original topic. (usually said original topic is "What's with the MLP craze?" in my experience) There's the fans and the non-fans; each side breaking down into various sub-groups from there. We're talking about haters though so that falls under a sub-group of the non-fans.
I'm talking about the ones who won't even give the show a chance, won't listen to the arguments of the fans, or go so far as to insult the fans for liking the show. We of course see this particular sub-group no matter what division of fans and non-fans you are talking about. These are the haters and they indeed will do nothing more than hate. We've all been a hater at some point or another in our lives; arguably the most recent occurrence would be the outcry over the Twilight fandom from the nerd community. Many had no prior experience with the series and simply by outward appearances and word of mouth refused to even consider giving it a chance. (I'd be inclined to say they were right after sitting through the first film)
Regardless though this is the hater referenced in the phrase "haters gonna hate" and by accepted definition of the phrase amongst the general populous it is meant to serve as an acceptable response to those whom any form of attempted reasoning would have no discernible effect on. Thus it can be safely assumed that whomever uses the phrase understands it's meaning, whether that be subconsciously or consciously at the time of use.
This does not account for, however, the fact that some people are stupid and/or asshats. Thus leading to use of the phrase in situations where it is completely inappropriate to use. For instance in a discussion over the objective qualities of the three Transformer films. Should the phrase be used in a conversation such as that then not only does it make no sense but it is safe to assume the one who used it does not wish to admit they do not possess the knowledge or critical thinking skills necessary to discuss the objective qualities of the films at length; regardless of their personal opinion.
She just reminds me of Nicki Minaj and, while I hate everything about her music, I don't hate her. Likewise, I don't hate this broad. Just hate the way she sounds.
Oh Jesus. Well, uh. I'm going to pretend that I didn't click play and just skip to the topic of haters.
Honestly, I think most of the value of the phrase "haters gonna hate" comes from when it is used ironically, particularly if it's used while trolling. As in:
"Dude. Tom. Stop looking at my screen. Not cool."
"Haters gonna hate."
When it's used seriously, though . . . while I agree that the actual concept behind the phrase is worthy of appreciation, I have yet to see someone use it like that. Usually, it's the "ignore a well-reasoned argument" usage.

Why the hell are you posting a thread about a shitty video to a shitty artist? The only reason 'Friday' became a hit was because of the hate and the internet. If people left it to die, she would have never gotten the money and 'fame.' Please don't create threads about bad artists, you're essentially funnelling more money to her. She,like many others, knows that hate is going to come her way. Along side with lot's of money.

"Haters" make millions and millions of dollars for the people they "hate". Both Justin Bieber and Rebecca Black are tremendous examples of this.Flying Dagger said:
So they aren't really haters are they? They're more like lovers.
I just know I'm going to regret listening to this...

...I'll be damned, that actually wasn't bad. It's not what I'd call good music, but it's not bad. I'd call this standard pop music, on par with just about everything else in the genre these days. I'm sorry, but how are you even comparing this to RB? It's not nearly as bad.
Music is fine, decent beat, fairly intelligent lyrics, and she's not a vegetable in front of the camera. Not something I'd want in my Ipod, but it's just fine for a pop lover, I'd imagine. My only complaint is that she looks like a hippy half the time.
Honestly, things like these (Friday, My Jeans, Swagger Jagger), they're basically like Vanity published Fanfiction, only they cost more money. And really, there's nothing wrong with that. The only problem is that, unlike vanity publishing, which you generally only print enough to show friends and family and are awfully hard to get published professionally, MUSIC videos get distributed worldwide, for fucking free. Some of it's good, most of it's shit. And not everyone shares your tastes. So honestly, showing the whole world your amateur attempt at music? Not the smartest idea if you don't want it criticized, and harshly.
Throw a stick of dynamite, expect an explosion.

Honestly, that is no where near as bad as "Friday"
Just kind of obnoxious. Just not my cup of horrible music.
EDIT: Did I really get ninja'd that bad? Ouch.
