In the autumn of 2010, Rebecca entered the studio to record a song and then uploaded it to You Tube on February 10 in 2011. This song received not so much attention until March 11. It became the hot topic in Twitter and the song surpassed 100 million views on April 13. During the past four weeks, the digital single has sold 159,000 copies.

 

Have you ever thought about a song that tells the daily activities like getting up, going downstairs or having food and meeting others? Well, that’s Rebecca Black’s song, Friday. With simple lyrics¹ and melody, she just acted according to the MV. Rather crude and simple. Especially she also counted from Monday to Sunday.

 

Besides, there are also rap elements in it, the rappers are black and to a large extent, emphasizes the girl’s cute side. Do you feel a little familiar after I introduced you a lot about this song? Will this song remind you of Picnic, Above the Moon etc? International Diving Tune², huh? It sounds some similarities between them.

 

Then the song causes a heated debate. Rebecca is prized as “a gifted singer with special style” and even predicated by some media that she is going to lead a revolution in music. However, she also faced more harsh criticism as well. Time scolded her song “the worst”.

 

“I was rather disappointed, they knew nothing about me, but they are so harsh to me, I’m just 13.” Rebecca said so in the interview about the criticism. She even decided³ to cancel her singing career.” I cried all the time, I have really do nothing wrong. ” But she said she had to face all these and try to be strong to pursed her dream.

 

Now the girl is making her debut⁴ record. It’s said that she composed many songs and to prove that she is capable in this field. She expressed that she wouldn’t change for she is just a girl at 13 who loves singing without pursing anything. Maybe we can form our own opinion after listening to her songs .
