Buying into the gimmic is fine, I'm simply pointing out that it is a gimmic, and further, that it is working. People that want to believe the song is popular because of the vocals or the rest of the lyrics are fooling themselves, at least in my opinion. Oh, I totally agree with this. Nonetheless, I think the song is brilliant, because while others release crap and try to pass it off as talent and it works, he's implying that you don't even have to feign talent for crap to be a hit. However, it being clever like that is not the reason why it is a hit -- you are right when you say it's a hit because it's a gimmic.

For now it's a guilty pleasure of mine.

For me to make a judgment on this guy i'd actually have to hear another song and considering that other songs titles on his album are "turnin' me off" then they probably show just how mediocre his music is. Anyways he is a one hit wonder for sure now considering that "I Love Them Hos" did bad everywhere.
