Welcome back- I hope everyone had a good Labor Day weekend. Don't forget to throw out all your white tees, preferably in favor of more seasonally appropriate attire. Today's featured song is the highest-charting non-promotional track off David Guetta's brand-new Nothing But the Beat album. I don't seriously believe this song will make a lasting impression on the charts, but it's certainly the most interesting song I could find for today, mostly because of what it contains: an Auto-Tuned, singing Nicki Minaj.
Minaj has, to this point, spent her career mostly just rapping, and doing it quite well. But she has found her greatest chart success to this point on songs like "Moment 4 Life" and "Super Bass" where she sings at times, especially on the chorus. So naturally, a song like this raises the question of whether this is a true change in approach for Nicki, or just a one-time aberration. Her true fans will definitely hope that's not the case, but people who like hearing songs like this probably won't care too much. Either way, it's a pretty sonically pleasing switch-up.
