This shit is bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S ! Yes, after 8 long years of waiting, Miss Gwen Stefani is back in the game! But before you start going all craycray, I need to get this off my chest first : Gwen always used to be so innovative and groundbraking, so I must admit I was kind of disappointed when I heard her new single "Baby, Don't Lie". I hate to say it, but it's true :( The track starts off good, with a reggae influenced cool bass line and some hand claps, but then it just turns into an ordinary midtempo pop song. And even though it was written by Ryan Tedder (one of my faves in the bizz), it doesn't pack that typical Stefani punch I was expecting. UPDATE : it didn't take long for Gwenny to serve us with the music video as well! Watch her get all Popart Psychedelic below. Andy Warhol would be proud! |
