Following up on the heels of her luminous solo debut single, “What You Waiting For”, Gwen Stefani teams up with multi- platinum rapper Eve for the second outing from Gwen’s debut, Love. Angel. Music. Baby. “Rich Girl” hosts a vivid rhythm (thanks to producer Dr. Dre), with an infectious, undeniable bridge, and chorus guaranteed to have listeners singing/dancing along.
More pop and less rocking than “What You Waiting For”, “Rich Girls” blends pop, and hip hop with a modest splash of dancehall. Gwen flows through the verses singing what she would do if she were a “wealthy girl”, with Eve throwing in a charismatic chant, and rap.
While jaded music fans may be turned off by the simplistic, unsophisticated lyrical content of the song; lovers of pop, and dance music will find plenty to love about this sparkly gem. This millennium may have finally found its quintessential “Material Girl” song. Who is Quinton Link? Hey! I'm 21 years old, 6'0, weigh 165, brown hair, brown eyes... ehh... wrong site! (haha)
I'm just your typical 'average Joe' from the lovely state of North Carolina. I have a huge passion for music. I love listening to music of all kinds (favorites are R&B, Hip Hop, Pop, and Rock/Alternative) and not scared to sing out tunes anywhere. (Mostly when I'm home alone though!)
Along with being a music fanatic, I'm also a huge sports fan. I like to watch and play: Basketball, Tennis, and Football. When I'm not on the job, (Dry Cleaners) l love to: write, read, play the occassional video game, and being around the people I care about. (Family, and friends)
Even though it usually doesn't show through my writing; (unless I'm doing an opinion column or something along those lines) I have a very sarcastic sense of humor, and love cracking jokes regularly.
