nnuendo? More like full-on sexual vibes! Welcome to After Dark 🕛 🌃, a column featuring songs that are best suited for nighttime, specifically, the bedroom. Many of the records featured here raise eyebrows, as well as the temperature! These After Dark tunes focus on the universal three-letter word: SEX. The dark records gracing After Dark are old and new alike, with all genres of music welcome. On the 18th edition of After Dark (2022), we explore the naughty, risqué, & sexual vibes behind, 🎵 “Candy Licker” by 🎙 Marvin Sease.Theme & Lyrics ✍
“Let me lick you up, let me lick you down / Turn baby and let me lick you all around.” Damn! the late 🎙 Marvin Sease was incredibly risqué and unapologetic, particularly for his time. He never achieved widespread commercial success, but his music is compelling and memorable, nonetheless. Honestly, when you can incorporate oral sex – cunnilingus – into a record, you’re ‘doing’ something. Furthermore, you’re DEFINITELY committed to that After Dark 🕛 🌃 s#!t we live for.
Throughout the funky but filthy, 10-minute-long 🎵 “Candy Licker,” Marvin Sease makes it clear that her pleasure is the modus operandi. He argues too many men are only concerned with their own pleasure and don’t care that she receives pleasure too. That’s why, he asserts, “I will lick you till you cum, I’m not lying girl / I just wanna be, eight days a week, your candy licker girl.” Furthermore, Sease takes on this conscience-free persona, Jodi, who will go to any lengths to get the licking done! Sure, them other guys “Don’t give a damn whether you cum /… But I’m Jodi, baby / I will lick you up, lick you down…” Woo!
Final Thoughts 💭
Well, it should come as no surprise that women enjoyed 🎵 “Candy Licker.” Again, Sease makes the pleasure all about them and not himself. That said, he seems to embrace and enjoy it. Even with music trending more explicitly these days, “Candy Licker” still raises eyebrows with its openness regarding oral.
