well, i don't think anyone necessarily has to like fiddy if they like the sugababes. but it's the nature of the criticism which irks me: it seems to ready to castigate the performers and consumers of 'urban' music in terms of racially/socially loaded stereotypes ('chav music', 'thugs' blah blah blah). and it's the fact that so many of them seem to use the word 'urban' with no hint of irony, or of how very wrong it is, which is an alarm sign as well.
'my humps' is an atrocity. but i think i secretly like it, but just can't admit it to myself yet.
