Review of Essence's song - Slide

My feelings for Essence still hasn't changed even though it's been long since I last watched any of her videos or listened to her songs, which is about five or six years ago or there about. But what is this, I don't even know who to blame, whether Clarence the director or Essence. The video looked too scattered jo like an amateur's job.

I'm sure very soon now they'll say that's the effect they were looking for, or that it is a spoof or something. Don't even let me start with the song lyrics.

I can use it as incantation because she was literally saying the same thing over and over again.

Don't get me wrong oh, the video is okay generally speaking, but from an old timer like Essence I expected better, and that's without adding the fact that our music/video industry has gone hay-wire in an awesome way.

The lyrics shifts from telling people to slide to the left, then to the right, then to the floor, then stop. Then she instructs us to keep our body's moving, then we shouldn't stop, we shouldn't stop, we shouldn't stop, then maybe when she's tired, she now instructs us to stop.

Then she continues giving instructions to bring it down, bring it down. If this was a soundtrack to an exercise video work out she is releasing, I could have related with it.

On a less related note sha, I think she's still got her looks. She looks really good in the video, sexy shape and facially good. But what can I say, with the exercise song she released, let me even buy the album and listen to the other songs there.
