nnuendo? More like full-on sexual vibes! Welcome to After Dark , a column featuring songs that are best suited for nighttime, specifically, the bedroom.  Like Controversial Tunes , the records featured here raise eyebrows.  The difference between the songs of CONTROVERSY and DARK? These songs specifically focus on the universal topic of S-E-X. The dark records gracing After Dark are old and new alike, with all genres of music welcome.  On the 5^th edition of After Dark, we explore the naughty, risqué & utterly sexual vibes behind, “Fuck Around” by Tink.

Theme & Lyrics

“Boy, you look good in whatever you wear / I like them tattoos on your face,” Tink asserts, continuing, “Boy, when you pull me and grab on my neck / That’s that lil’ shit that be havin’ me wet.” Holy moly! That’s that AFTER DARK shit that we love! The rapper/singer is totally digging this man judging by those lyrics.  He has exactly what she wants on “Fuck Around,” which appears on her 2020 album, Hopeless Romantic. Would it be inappropriate to say that she’s not fucking around when it comes to loving (and making love to) him?

“You’re everything that I want
You been a hundred from the start
Hit the gas, boy you movin’ fast
But you know you’re good in my arms (Oh, yeah).”

Tink is hopelessly in love! To her, this dude is it – the Sugar. Honey. Iced. Tea! “None of these bitches is gon’ understand [him],” but, “[He’s] everything that [I] want.” That’s right – say that girl! The chorus sums up the dedication perfectly, which, unsurprisingly, involves NOT “fuck[ing] around”:

“I’ll be there for you when you had a long day
Type of love, make me wanna go and tat your name
Promise I won’t fuck around, promise I won’t fuck around.”

Final Thoughts  

Take out the bad language and maybe, just maybe, “Fuck Around” isn’t as worthy for After Dark.  Luckily, for us, the edge, the sheer dedication, and of course, sex, solidify the songs spot on this midnight, adults only affair.
