Kate Perry. Pop as sugar can be.
It's not considered novel when all you do is to dress your old dolls with new rags. That's how I feel with Katy Perry's California Gurls featuring Snoop Dogg. Not that I don't like Katy Perry... she seems well-intentioned enough and happy to be what she is - something hard to find in an easy-to-change-who-you-are-in-the-name-of-fame world.
Snoop Dogg is the same as always... unimaginative and boring, although lovingly familiar in a good way.
All and all it's a popular tune with the same old beats and tricks meant to move an audience easily... It's colorful, silly and will dumb you as you listen to it - scientifically proved- among other things.
Now what do you think?
