Rico Love says his new single doesn't attack women but is a PSA for women who rely on acceptance from social media and money to be happy.
According to MTV, singer-songwriter Rico Love's new single "Be Like" isn't just a play on the catchy memes. The singer says several female sites refused to showcase the single due to his comments on women that crave lavish lifestyles.
"I had an issue because there were a few female blog sites where I wanted to premiere the record on," he said. "I feel like the song is anti-b****, pro-women. They didn't want to put it, they didn't want to post it."
On the song, Rico says lyrics like, "F*** you tryin to do? You ain't from DC/But you had the million man march up inside of you/Word to them rubbers in yo trash can...Damn! These bitches be like/Poke my ass out and that's 150 likes/Rocked 150 mics"
He continues to defend the song and hopes that it will help start a conversation about social media.
"I don't mind getting a conversation going and starting a dialogue," he said. "I know what I intend to say and I'm not pulling back any punches. I mean what I say."
