First, the site update. You probably noticed that instead of just a link, I left a video embedded in this post-- a function of Blogger I'd never thought to use until now. I'm going to play around with that until it works well and looks good. Any input is appreciated.

And now for the song. The latest release from David Guetta (I think he's trying for some awards or something, with this many singles...), featuring Nicki Minaj. I'm torn on this song-- I love 80% of it, and I'm only "meh" about the other 20%, which happens to be the part where Ms. Minaj is rapping. When she sings, she's pretty decent. For what it's worth, I could see her being mistaken for sounding like Rihanna in the chorus (starts 0:54),  and it's quite excellent. At 2:46, she loses me until about 3:01. I suspect it will eventually grow on me, but I think the song would have been just fine without that break in it. In all fairness, I'm probably still baised against Nicki Minaj because of her latest release, "Stupid Hoe," which I do not like, and frankly find rather annoying. Given time, I would write out a long, reasoned argument on why this song is objectively bad as opposed to me just subjectively disliking it, and I might, but for the moment, I'll let it go.
