about

I've got a story to tell... Hypocritical Freddie is a short story with a simple and impactful message about having double standards. It was actually inspired by a meme that I saw on Instagram about guys who wouldn't date a porn star but would paradoxically sit wanking over porn. The single is produced by Rosko with co production from myself.

After recently having an issue with an uncleared sample on a song I released back in 2013 I chose not to use the sample that Rosko originally had on the production. Instead I opted for real instrumentation that not only kept the essence of the bluesy sample that Rosko had originally used - it transcended it with the guitar parts being soulfully played by Thomas Rickerby that dance beautifully with Gergő Bille's trumpet parts. 

 I toyed with making the song longer into a more traditional arrangement but decided against it leaving the song as short, sweet and impactful as I could.

lyrics

Look
Meet Freddie, Freddie’s not impartial to a strip club
He’s also not impartial to getting his little dick sucked
But Freddie’s got a family two daughters and a wife
But they don’t like him very much see he’s never home at night
He inverted commas works late at the office
Spending all his money on his seedy little frolics
And who knows when his marriage became so dishonest
I’m astonished they’re still married quite frankly if I’m honest
Meet Lisa, she leaves work in her Cinderella slippers
And a handbag full of cash from these overzealous tippers
Lisa’s from a broken home funding her own uni fees
Her friend Sarah thinks it is absolute lunacy
She makes so much money from dancing with her boobies free
And wants a piece of that so says introduce me please
So Sarah gets a job at the strip club stripping
Freddie’s at the strip club with his cash out tipping
And then out the corner of his beady little eyes
He sees his daughter Sarah twerking for some guys
Oh that’s it Freddie loses his shit
Sarah gets embarrassed and covers up her tits
She says fuck you dad you’re a fucking hypocrite
Don’t be like Freddie don’t be a hypocrite
