who actually did the music for this

Who did the music? Is it just fed through autotune only? Then surely someone added the beat. Love to know if anyone can help here. IBE (talk) 20:46, 14 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Article is incomplete, doesn't summarize the video or explain why it went viral

I haven't seen the video. Reading this article, I have no idea what was in the video or what made it go viral. Would a kind talk page watcher be willing to add this info to the article somewhere? –Novem Linguae (talk) 02:36, 29 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I think nobody can explain why something goes "viral." As for summarizing the video, someone or some people (probably named in the credits for the original video) took her news interview after she escaped a fire, added a beat and auto-tuned her voice to make it sound like a rap. It was well done and rather amusing, but I prefer the Greta Thunberg death metal version of "How Dare You," which deserves an article if this video does. Anyway, someone could look up the person or persons who performed this feat and add it to the article. I ain't got time for that. Edit: The section "Critical Analysis" says "Charles E. Williams, writing for the Huffington Post, opined that the humor evoked by Sweet Brown's interview should stay within the confines of the black community, linking it to the "code-switching" phenomenon W. E. B. Du Bois spoke of.[7]" W. E. B. DuBois is not mentioned in the article on Code-switching, so some improvement is needed somewhere. Wastrel Way (talk) Eric

Thanks. I'm still on the edge of my seat here, wondering why it's called "Ain't nobody got time for that". Does she say it in the video? Is she referring to something in particular? Would all be good stuff for someone to cite and explain in the article. –Novem Linguae (talk) 07:59, 28 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
