First song pitched
[edit]The first song pitched by RedZone was "Pop Culture Whore". It even says so at the bottom of the page that it referenced! It was not vandalism on my behalf. If you bothered to read the source then you might have realised that I was right.

- I apologize. I did look at the source, but didn't read it all the way through or even search for "Pop Culture Whore". Sorry. --AmaltheaTalk 14:35, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
Madonna's Rap
[edit]Isn't it correct that Madonna's rap portion of the song ("Come on Britney...") contains a sample from another song? I am sure I heard the exact same melody in another song at a bar recently... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.86.47.63 (talk) 05:48, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
- I guess you mean D.A.N.C.E. by Justice. It sounds very similar to this song. --84.113.33.181 (talk) 13:19, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
R&B
[edit]I think the song has an R&B and Alternative Hip-Hop feel to it. Shouldn't they be in the genre section? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.16.161.191 (talk) 17:56, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
Genre
[edit]I agree with this. It's an urban song influenced by R&B and hip-hop, the composition section even lists it as an R&B song with hip-hop and funk influences. The genre should be changed to Urban, Hip-Hop and/or R&B or they should be added there. --User5482 (talk) 07:02, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
Orphaned references in Me Against the Music
[edit]I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Me Against the Music's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
