I was just listening to "church" the other day. You heard that new SZA shit?
 
Some of it is okay, but a good share of it is what Jim Goad accurately describes as "urban mating songs".

There are too many to mention, so I’ll indict the entire genre. You know what I’m talking about. I don’t want to get too offensive or stereotypical here, but we both know what I’m talking about. I love black music more than the average white guy, but Urban Mating Songs are where I draw the line and begin to segregate myself. Smooth, silky slow jams. Whiny male eunuch barnyard goats bleating a surfeit of “shawty” references to the latest electronically programmed drum beats. Dumb girls gurgling dumb lyrics about their dumb boyfriends. I’m working on highly secret sonic technology that will render anyone who willingly chooses to listen to this music sterile. It has to be done.
