The image above shows that it was rated R, so not a family movie. IDK, that kinda makes it worse in a way? If it were PG then there wouldn’t be any nudity. And a PG movie could be intended for actual teenagers. A rated R movie is primarily for an 18+ audience, so these girls were definitely being marketed to the adult male gaze.
ETA: I saw this decades ago when I was way too young and don’t recall if there was actually nudity.




I’m a huge rap fan and this is 100% correct.
Although, not for the reasons you listed. Having a huge hit that leans heavily on an obvious sample of an older hit song isn’t necessarily awful. But the guy writes corny shit, is a terrible rapper and is just not very talented. He built an empire off of surrounding himself with amazingly talented people and exploiting them in the worst possible ways.
