Lady GaGa shot the video for Chilln' in Boston yesterday with Wale.

 

Did like this song but it wore off pretty fast. Although any new GaGa is good :wub:

LOL is those the dogs from the Poker Face vid just btw? This is a great tune, should be pretty huge in the US if they release it there.

That's a bit of a coop for dear old "Wale" isn't it? The girl featured on his song just so happens to be the biggest female superstar in the world right now :lol: Lucky.
She looks stunning but I really don't like the song. He's not even a good rapper and her part is terrible and not even catchy.
Awful song btw. So unlike the sort of stuff GaGa should be doing.

Lol yes, I've woken up and realised what a pile of $h!te the song is :heehee: He did well to get her when he did. Agreed she doesnt really need to do stuff like this now. People should be begging to feature with GaGa now :wub:

I actually love this song.. Wale isn't too bad, he reminds me a lot of Kanye West.

The song does lack a little originality though, sounds like an exact clone of MIA's Diplo remix of Paper Planes, when I first heard this I actually thought it was MIA and not GaGa :lol: If it is a single in the US could be pretty huge I reckon

not digging the video. they just used the same scene for gaga. she shot others. boring boring video. i really love her vocals, its catchy
• Wale Says Lady Gaga Brings ‘Bad Girl’ Vibe To ‘Chillin’ ‘

When Wale announced the release of his single “Chillin’ ” in April, it was met with a few raised eyebrows. The D.C. MC had enlisted Lady Gaga for the track, and many wondered how the performance-art, dance-pop princess would fit in Wale’s world of go-go and clever flows. They also wondered if it were just an attempt to garner some notoriety for the up-and-coming rapper standing alongside the hugely popular Gaga.

 

Once the song was released, others wondered why he hadn’t just grabbed M.I.A for the hook; Gaga’s “Chillin’ ” chorus sounds eerily similar to M.I.A.’s world-traveled flow. When MTV News caught up with Wale on the video set for “Chillin’,” he said his goal was to go against the status quo of what a hip-hop track should sound like.

 

“Diddy, Kanye and Jay are always the first ones to do something, and I like to think of myself as the first person of the new class to kind of step out of the box,” Wale said. “It’s 2009 now. Jay-Z is doing sold-out arenas with Kelly Clarkson. It’s world music now. I want ‘Chillin’ ‘ to be a celebration of that.”

 

Wale had been campaigning since November to get Lady Gaga on a track, because he felt she embodied the song’s party-record feel.

 

“If music was a high school, I feel like I’ll be the dude on the football team, and it would be like, ‘OK, Gaga’s having a party!’ And you know all the bad girls are going to be out there.”

 

Gaga told MTV News on the video set that Mark Ronson, Wale’s mentor, originally sent her the record. “I really wanted to sit down with Wale before I wrote the hook,” she recalled. “Because to me, it’s really lame when people send you tracks, and they’re like, ‘All right, Gaga, throw your vocals on it.’ This is Wale’s record. It’s not my record.”

 

Gaga said Wale sounds like he’s been rapping for years. His hip-hop braggadocio seems to have rubbed off on her as well. Her portion of the song — which includes the lines “Lookin’ at, lookin’ at, lookin’ at me/ Eyes on me like honey on bees” — is completely narcissistic, she admitted, but in a really positive way. “It’s one of those songs, one of those tracks and one of those videos that you can’t stop listening to,” she said.

 

Despite the catchiness of the song and their apparent chemistry on set, Wale recognized that some people still won’t get it. Breaking down barriers in music isn’t an easy thing, he said, but that won’t stop him from trying: “If Jay-Z can work with Coldplay, then Wale should be able to work with Gaga.”

It's grown off me hugely and flopped hugely in the US. I can't stand it. So contradictive I am I know :lol: The intro is all I love about it, beyond that it's absolutely intolerable. Wale sounds as if he's trying his best to kill the song as much as he can. Awfull. GaGa's atleast realized Kanye West is her league and Wale was just a complete waste of time :rolleyes:
