When I think jerking, I think about the New Boyz and their smash hit “You’re a Jerk.” Since that dropped people have been trying to keep the jerk moment alive by making their own jerking music. Now there is one female artist making her name as a jerk-er: Keke Palmer. Palmer isn’t new to the entertainment industry. She became famous with her performance in the 2006 film Akeelah and the Bee and currently stars in the Nickelodeon sitcom True Jackson, VP.
Palmer is promoting her new jerking song title “Super Jerkin.” She keeps the jerking tradition of heavy bass in her song but the one thing that sets this song apart from the rest is the autotune. From looks of her YouTube comments, her song is making it’s way into peoples ears fairly quickly.
How do you like this autotune jerk song?
I'm sorry Kanye, but "COMPUTER BEGAL" by Lambo is the best video of ALL TIME!.... all time

I wish I could have been a fly on the corner of Sedgwick and Cedar in the late 70’s. I can see it now: chilling, in my B-Boy stance, watching Kool Herc spinning vinyl, while the birth pains of the new born baby named hip-hop blast through Herc’s parents’ speakers. I wish I could have been there It would have been an amazing opportunity to be that fly, don’t get me wrong- I’m fly, sitting there for hip-hop’s umbilical cord being cut, just so I could ask the crowd: “are all of yall some followers?”
