It is quite the rarity when I actually enjoy having a song stuck in my head. Normally, ear worms like Rebecca Black's "Friday" and Justin Bieber's "Baby" irritate me to no end, but Keri Hilson's "Pretty Girl Rock" is a tune I could endlessly replay in my mind. The number is catchy and a bit self-indulgent, with an elaborate video to match.
In this tribute montage, Hilson appears dressed as prominent African-American performers throughout the decades. Not only does the singer imitate modern singers like Janet Jackson and T-Boz of the popular 90s girl group, but Hilson also pays homage to the ground-breaking black performers of the early 20th century like Josephine Baker and Dorothy Dandridge.
After the series of impersonations arrives in the 21st century, Hilson finishes the song in a simple white t-shirt and jeans, showcasing this songstress as a true "pretty girl."
Readers what song is stuck in your heads today?
