Shave Em Dry
I’m not even a TOTAL old, but I’m definitely above the age-bracket that most pop/R&B songs are geared towards. One Direction, Justin Bieber, and whoever-the-hell Lil Twist is all make music that is kinda unbearable to my 25+ year old eardrums. But at the same time, I don’t really understand the hate around songs that are “too sexual” or “inappropriate.”
Sex is natural, and awesome, and a beautiful part of life and should be sung about! Maybe not like this, but still.
And if you think that singing about booty is a new thing, THINK AGAIN – and check out this raunchy song by Lucille Bogan, called Shave Em Dry. And no, Lucille isn’t an up and coming collaborator with Chris Brown – she WAS a singer in the 1920s.
But she gives Rihanna and her song “S&M” a run for her money!

Unfortunately, this is the only one I can find… maybe you can hunt one down. Thanks for commenting :)

What a great song! Problem is, that the record is very old and no sound enhancement has been done to it. Could you please send me a copy of the complete lyrics? Or, you could send me a copy of the file. I know a studio in NYC that does amazing work in sound restoration.
