Um…don’t hate me but I kind of love this song…and it appears that I’m not the only one. Entertainment Weekly named “Drank” by Girlicious as one of THE songs to download on the just released soundtrack to MTV’s trash-tastic reality show Jersey Shore and I quite agree.
I’ve always had a soft spot for Girlicious (Nichole Cordova, Natalie Mejia and Chrystina Sayers), ever since watching the CW reality series (with about 10 other people TOTAL) where girls competed to be THE next pop group under the watchful eye of creator Robin Antin (The Pussycat Dolls, Paradiso Girls). Sure, they’ve never released an album here in the U.S., (opting instead to target Canada) but they left me with a lasting impression. “Like Me” was a great song. No, nothing ground breaking, but a decent slice of urban-influenced pop music. “Stupid Sh*%” was…well…stupid but still fun. And “Baby Doll,” it was cute. Girlicious are were cute. After losing Tiffanie Anderson for whatever reason, the girls forged ahead, left Geffen, signed with Universal Canada and released two new singles, “Over You” and “Maniac,” neither of which made much of an impression on the Canadian charts.
NOW – with the release of “Drank,” it appears that they’re SKANKING things up a notch and I LOVE it. “Drank” is no more genius than their previous efforts but that’s not LIKE…what you were expecting…was it? HELLO! It’s the Jersey Shore soundtrack! I hope to GOD there’s going to be a video for this one.
