Sometimes you just have to laugh.

I know the words sold out get thrown around a lot. But if there's any proof of an artist "selling out to the man for the almighty dollar" it has to be Nelly Furtado. Does anyone remember when she first came out and she had some genuine music. The image of an independent woman with folky rock alternative music. Now I have seen recent promotions for her new album which is pretty much hip hop beats and she's precieved as some sex object.

Travel on over to her myspace by clicking here.
Listen to her older song "Fly Like a Bird".
Then her newest song "Promiscuous" which features Timbaland. Even the title of the song is dripping with sex appeal.

All this came to my attention when I first saw a cell phone commercial that appearently had her new song. That and I stumbled acrossed a myspace site devoted to preaching about how she had sold her soul to make a buck.

Of course at this point of the entry I feel that this post is pretty pointless and not worth my time. But why not, I've written so much already.
