Can’t stop listening to it to be honest😅
Let me quote @TheJodieeXO : "So, I'll break this down "There's a ghost in my body and he is a lyricist" "Oh Mia Padre, There's a ghost in my body" They are taking a shot at Ghostwriters in the industry. Alot of artist's today will use Ghostwriters who will produce or write music and get a massive fraction whilst the artist gets a small amount for performing it. They also use their song as a way to demonstrate this. In today's industry, you could make the most meaningful song but cover it with Electro or dance and bam... It's a worldwide hit and people miss the actual meaning. So, they did the same by making this fun, quirky pop track that you miss the actual meaning behind the song.
"What's your IPI? Where's the A&R? Girl, call Universal, you're about to be a star"
IPI is a digital barcode that a A&R team recieve when content is made. It determines how much royalty the Producer, Writer, Artist and Label will receive. In most cases, again, the producer and label receive the most whilst the songwriter and artist receive hardly anything. They take a shot at Universal Music group as they are known to take MASSIVE chunks from artists and also not give their artist's any creative control over their music or sound. It's sarcasm. You'll become a star and be rich, but it'll come at a price, basically! You'll have no freedom to write your own songs but you'll be rich. It's a very clever lyric.
"Zero dot zero zero three Give me two years, and your dinner will be free" Most streaming sites will pay a artist 0.003 in revenue every stream. This lyric actually hits so hard. All they could afford is cheap champagne and after two years, they'd finally make a small profit. Unless you're a massive artist pulling in millions of plays each month, you will hardly see a profit from your song and will have to wait a few years before you can just about afford a meal. It's a strong message to display just how much the industry and streaming sites do not value the work or content of hard working artists.
This is why she then says "At least it pays to be funny". Comedians make more money than hard working songwriters and artists!! Let that sink in.
In the second half of the video, they dress up as men delivering the song to a board of record executives. This is because men's work is often listened to more and released whilst women's hard work goes unnoticed or unfavoured.
You then see them get arrested for impersonation and taken to prison. This is because they are trying to display the message, it would be so much easier to be a man in the industry than be a woman. VERY CLEVER what they did there. This song is ART. It's not even a song at this point. It deserves recognition for how amazing it is. It's such a fun, quirky song with such a deep and powerful message. "
If I could add to that. Edgar Allan Poe was the first author who tried to live from his art. He was short on money all of his life.
👏👏👍
Wow.. Thank you so much for this explanation! It really takes the song to another level. We can’t wait to watch t again, knowing what we now know. Thank you
And the add on about Edgar allen poe is such a good point.
0.003 is also about (slightly more than) the average Roblox game dev makes per play, maybe quite standard across creative industries these days?
@@benjaminr6343 Interesting! Is Roblox games a big thing? Never heard of it before, but checked it out now.
It’s actually a really clever song criticising the modern music industry. And it’s also GOOD!
Thank you for the comment. Agree! It’s so GOOD

Sorry to ask this question but is one of you blind? I just thought about that because of the dark glasses. I am not meant to offend you two or anything I am just curious that's all.
Haha no worries! None of us is blind, just shy😅
This is a total rip off (both parts of the song and the entire video) from a\ a MacDonald's advert.
Do you have a link to this McDonalds advert?
