Behind The Music: K-Fed's "Popozao"
Never has a song inspired such ridicule so quickly! I can barely keep up with all the Internet musings on Kevin Federline's "PopoZão". When we premiered the MP3, you weren't impressed. The title is apparently Portuguese slang for "luscious ass"/"bring your ass" though Tian points out that in Mandarin "po po" means "mother-in-law" and "zao" means "in a mess." Funny.
1. MTV News RAW Overdrive shows us Britney's babydaddy keeping it real in the studio.
2. Video quickly finds its way onto YouTube...
3. Krazy K-Fed footage becomes the new "Lazy Sunday" for Web satirists.
Kevin from G4TV wrote us about his parody...
If you liked the video of K-Fed rocking out to "PopoZão" in his recording studio, you just might like Attack of the Show's parody that aired yesterday.Nice job, Kev. But you've opened the floodgates. Got Popo-parody? Post it in the comments, yo yo.We literally conceived the idea this morning at 10:00am and had it ready for the live show by 3:00pm. It was an insane turnaround time, but we pulled it off and we're all very proud of the parody.
I hope you and your viewers enjoy it!
UPDATE: James Lipton reads the lyrics on Conan O'Brien.

from Billlboard.com, a review:
PopoZão
KEVIN FEDERLINE
Producer(s): Disco D.
Genre: POP
Label: (download)
Oops, he did it. Kevin Federline releases a rap single, even without the support of a record label. It is only natural that Britney's private dancer wants to do more than carry the purse with the family chihuahua during paparazzi-driven shopping sprees. Released exclusively via Yahoo Music Unlimited, this dance-centric hip-hop rhyme tries to emulate D4L's goofy smash "Laffy Taffy," but K-Fed's faux rap is a flowless mess. While he deserves credit for the cryptic title (Portuguese for "hot ass"), his rhymes are torturous ("I wanna see ya kitty and a little bit of titty"), and his faint voice lacks coolness and confidence as he hollers for more Brazilian booty. A monument to mediocrity.

Oh, boy. What an arsehole. The fact that this trailer-trash dumbass is on the national radar in any way says a lot about how far America has fallen. Paris Hilton is like Eleanor Roosevelt compared to this fucktard.

A few years ago MTV released a game for playstation, I don't remember what it was called but you were able to make your own music. The song he put together sounds like something that game would be capable of producing. What a chump.

I don't mind it. I don't see myself buying th CD or even taking it for free, but it seems appropriate as background music at Forever 21.

How about the way he keeps waving his hands over the mixing board, but clearly has no idea what any of the knobs actually do?

Hilarious. Attack of the show? gonna have to start watching that, never heard of it before. It probably took them a little longer then ten minutes to make "Cottage Cheese Thighs" but it was just as good if not better than Federline's.
I don't care just get me a siren!

Wow. Britney can have him.
G4 are not comedy writers. They're computer geeks and computer geeks seldom make me laugh. I remember when I was into video games and how painful it was to watch X-Play. Terribly unfunny.
Besides, the original is funny enough.

how does he sleep at night with this on his conscience.

It's probably a bad sign when K-Fed himself can't keep a straight face while listening to whatever that was supposed to be.
Or is that facial expression part of his "moves?"

The most amazing thing about Popozao is that there's only one verse. What a lazy bastard! The rest of the song just repeats the stupid "hook" over and over. And the hook is "Po-Po-Po-Po-Popozao, Popozao." Try a little harder, dude!
Is there a whole album or is Popozao going to be K-Fed's sole claim to greatness?

This song is so stupid and wasn't his first sang supposed to "start it". And why does he keep writing this stuff if dosen't even have a single or album. I don't really like Spears but i can't help but feel sorry for her.

Please don't buy his cd just for the William Hung crappy factor, at least Hung seams like a good guy, don't encourage K-douche.
