Hips, Usher, No Apologies

Enrique Iglesias released Dirty Dancer featuring Usher with absolutely no pretense of artistic intent, which is genuinely fine—the song doesn’t need it. The video is the point: bodies moving in ways that render the title the least subtle in recent pop memory. Usher sounds like he showed up to collect a fee and still outperforms everyone else in the room. I’ve watched it more times than is strictly defensible and I’m not going to pretend otherwise.
