A while back Miley Cyrus was criticized for her comments about Hip Hop music, saying she’s over hearing music that asks girls to “come sit on my D!ck, suck on my C0ck.” She said this in reference to her favourite song at the time being Kendrick Lamar’s “Humble” and how she loved the context of him rapping about natural women showing their stretch marks. After her comments went live to the media, people were quick to throw her shade and claim she doesn’t know what she’s talking about, which resulted in a lengthy Instagram post of her clarifying what she meant.
“To be clear I respect ALL artists who speak their truth and appreciate ALL genres of music (country , pop , alternative …. but in this particular interview I was asked about rap),” she captioned her post. “I have always and will continue to love and celebrate hip hop as I’ve collaborated with some of the very best!”
The 24-year-old has now stepped back in the Hip Hop lane when she paid a visit to The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon. As Jimmy always does, he came up with a unique game that followed taking a well-known song and pairing it with a genre that’s almost opposite, making the guest (Miley) have to remix the song in that particular genre.
At first, Miley got R. Kelly’s “Ignition” with the genre Bluegrass, so she basically sang the whole song in a hillbilly manner. Her next hit was Cardi B’s “Bodak Yellow,” a timely track, with the genre Pop. Miley seemed ready to go the second it came on, bouncing on her chair waiting for the lyrics to drop. She delivered a bit of a soulful cover of the song, feeling it hard as she proceeded to stand up and go deep into it. Jimmy got up and joined her taking the role as hypeman in the background.
