“It’s yo birthday so I know you want to ri-i-ide out…” Ah, bring on Midnight Heat 🕛 🔥! Wait – it is not usually hot at midnight! Well, it is steaming hot 🥵 at midnight when it comes to this naughty, innuendo and sex-laden column featuring songs intended for nighttime. Yeah, we are talking about that after dark, bedroom boom $hi†, ya dig? These unapologetic records often raises both eyebrows and temperature alike. Woo! In the 71st edition of Midnight Heat (2023), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind, 🎵Birthday Sexby 🎙 Jeremih.

Jeremih, Jeremih [📷: Def Jam]“You say you want passion / I think you found it / Get ready for action / Don’t be astounded.” Passion? Action? Yup, sounds S-E-X-U-A-L 😈. R&B artist 🎙 Jeremih continues singing, “We switching positions / You feel surrounded / Just tell me where you want / Your gift, girl.” Switching positions is definitely sexual. Another key highlight from those lyrics is gift 🎁.  That is because this 2009 highlight from his self-titled album is called 🎵 “Birthday Sex”, and the gift 🎁 he is giving is, bomb sex. See the chorus:

“Don’t need candles or cake, just need yo body to make, ooh

Birthday sex 

Birthday sex.” 

Bitmoji ImageOoh-wee! Jeremih peaked (😜) at no. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 with “Birthday Sex,” one of four top-10 hits. A multiplatinum single, “Birthday Sex” propelled 💿 Jeremih to platinum certification itself. A prime example of where sex sells, this is an infectious, sensual joint.  Everyone (or almost everyone) enjoys sex, so, a song about sex on a special day is freaking fantastic 😈! “We grindin’ with passion ‘cause it’s yo birthday” says it all! Also, if we’re being technical, it’s an inexpensive gift 🤷🏾‍♂️… Sure, “Say you wanted flowers on the bed / But you got me and hours on the bed.” A more fun experience, right? All told, 🎵 “Birthday Sex”, a contemporary, freaky birthday song for the ages, speaks for itself. Jeremih, 🎼 ✍ Mick Schultz (who 🎛 produces), and Keith James wrote a good one 💪.
