Confetti, People Suck © ConfettiUp-and-coming pop band Confetti shines on their incredibly clever, truthful, tongue-in-cheek single, “People Suck.”

Sometimes the best new songs don’t come from established artists.  That’s the case with “People Suck,” the debut single by newcomers Confetti.  Jumping right in, the band serves an intro that foreshadows and infectious, tongue-in-cheek styled record.  Ultimately, the intro ends something like this:

“I hate people, I hate people ‘cause people suck, man / People suck and they keep on fucking sucking.”

That’s true.  After setting the tone, Confetti serves up the centerpiece of the record, the chorus.  It’s not only fun but it also gives the audience the chance to put their fists in the air and drop the bomb (or flip the bird).

“People suck, people suck, people suck… / They say what goes around comes back around / But sometimes, you get fucked / ‘Cause people suck, people suck, people suck.”

The backdrop is a mix between pop, rock, and old-school hip-hop (over a dusty beat).  Perfect fuel for the fire.  The thing is, that the band remains relatively even keel, but the cleverness, hilarity, and truth of the lyrics pack a punch.  For good measure, throughout the course of the verses, some colorful, salty language is thrown in.

“If you walking too slow, get out the way (Get out the way) / If you smell like BO, it’s not okay (Take a shower) / I got another parking ticket, I mean, are you fucking kidding? / Better get that stupid shit out of my face, man.”

Final Thoughts

From first world problems, to taking a shot at Donald Trump (“And Hillary sucks too”), “People Sucks” is nothing short of awesome.  Confetti has got next.
