10 more songs that Forever 21 should never ever play in their stores

Because don't be so thick(e).

Forever 21, the line of clothing stores favoured by many teenage girls, has attracted plenty of attention the past few days after Gurmit Singh's 17-year-old daughter, Gabrielle, wrote an open letter on tumblr slamming an outlet in Somerset 313@Orchard for playing misogynistic songs.

The retailer has since apologised and it was reported in The Straits Times today:

A manager at Sharaf Retail, which markets Forever 21 in Singapore, told The Straits Times the store's music is chosen by the brand's head office in the United States, but did not elaborate.

Channel News Asia also reported that the songs came from a staff's personal playlist.

Now, before you get into more trouble, Forever 21, here are 10 more offensive songs that you should not play in your stores in Singapore.

1. Blurred Lines by Robin Thicke

OK now he was close, tried to domesticate you

But you're an animal, baby it's in your nature

Just let me liberate you

Because it's the obvious choice. According to BBC, about 20 student university student unions banned this song, saying that it promoted "date rape culture".

2. Do What U Want by Lady Gaga

You can't have my heart
And you won't use my mind but
Do what you want (with my body)
Do what you want with my body

Because one should have more self respect.

3. Gold Digger by Kayne West

She take my money when I'm in need
Yeah she's a trifling friend indeed
Oh she's a gold digger way over town
That digs on me

Because generalising sucks, Kayne.

4. Love Game by Eminem

I told that b****

I'm a sucker for love, you're a sucker for d***

Because sucking should remain on straws.

5. Smack My Bitch Up by Prodigy

Change my pitch up, smack my bitch up.

Because self explanatory.

6. Figured You Out by Nickelback

I like your pants around your feet

And I like the dirt that's on your knees

And I like the way you still say please

While you're looking up at me

You're like my favourite damn disease

Because this song is also like a disease.

7. Better Than Revenge by Taylor Swift

She's not a saint

And she's not what you think

She's an actress, whoa

She's better known

For the things that she does

On the mattress, whoa

Because you are not a saint too.

8. Girl I Know by Avenged Sevenfold

Another thing about this girl I know

She's more comfortable down on her knees

Went to school, got a job, and then she shot into hell

All 'cause she's born to please, yeah

Because no one is comfortable on their knees.

9. Ur So Gay by Katy Perry

You’re so gay and you don’t even like boys

Because it's not your problem who we like?

10. Big Pimpin' by Jay Z

You know I - thug em, f*** em, love em, leave em

Cause I don't f***in need em

Take em out the hood, keep em lookin good

But I don't f***in feed em

Because pimpin' is illegal.
