"Naughty Naughty" is the second single of American recording artist Porcelain Black's debut album, Mannequin Factory.[3] Naughty Naughty was released on iTunes Store's on October 24, 2011 in Sweden, followed by a release on December 13, 2011 in the United States.[4] The songs release came about following online complaints by Black's fans on Twitter. The song's producer RedOne originally leaked the song onto his official YouTube channel, which was followed by an ability to stream the song in its entirety on Black's official website. An EP containing three remixes of "Naughty Naughty" was released on through iTunes on February 21, 2012.[5]
"Naughty Naughty" was accompanied by an online viral music video labeled "Unofficial Music Video" following its release, with promises from Black to shoot an official music video in the near future. "Naughty Naughty" debuted at number 46 on Billboard's Hot Dance Club Songs, peaking at number six after several weeks, outperforming Black's lead single and becoming her most successful single at the time. Critics gave the song mixed reviews, comparing the artistry to that of Britney Spears and Lady Gaga.
Background and release[edit]
"Naughty Naughty", the follow-up to Black's debut single "This Is What Rock n' Roll Looks Like", features writing by Porcelain Black, herself, Nadir "RedOne" Khayat, who also produced the track, and additional writing from Bilal Hajji. Originally titled "LaaDeeDaaDee," the song was set to sample the 1985 song "La Di Da Di" performed by Doug E. Fresh and MC Ricky D.[6] For unknown reasons, the sample was excluded for the track's official release, renamed "Naughty Naughty".
Following the cries of impatient fans on Twitter, RedOne leaked the single on his official YouTube channel on September 18, 2011.[7] After confirming the song as the next single, "Naughty Naughty" was available for stream on Black's official website, and allowed fans to download a remix to the song by Mr. Mig Elektro-Fi for free.[8][9] The song was released officially on the Swedish iTunes Store on October 24, 2011,[10] and was released onto the American iTunes Store December 13, 2011.[11] Following the song's original release, the 'Naughty Naughty' remix EP was released digitally on February 21, 2012 under the 2101 imprint of Universal Republic Records.[12] The EP features three electro-dance remixes from DJ R3hab, Mr. Mig, and DJ Kue.[13] The song was additionally released with an extended version, remixed by producer RedOne.[13]
Composition[edit]
"Naughty Naughty" plays up the bad-girl image of the middle finger-waving singer from 8 Mile in Detroit.[14] "Naughty Naughty' gives straight attitude and rock & roll grunge with lyrics like 'Definitely kissing a stranger/ then leave his ass later, you know/ Can't help that I'm attracted to danger/ You can't be my savior, uh oh.' [15] Lyrically, Black acknowledges that she’s not as scary as she may seem as she sings "Definitely not an angel / But I’m not that evil, you know."[14]
"Naughty Naughty" was compared as more mainstream dance-pop and danceable than her previous material.[14] Instrumentally, the song features RedOne setting the track stomping; synths subside only briefly, and the percussion never lets up.[16] Asaph of PopDust noted a striking similarity between Black's intense vocals and the synthesized electric guitar used in the song, forming enough "grit" to scrape out a cross between a scream, choking and an extended glottal stop by the song's bridge.[16] Vocally, Black sings about being naughty, in a quick and graceful manor; when she sings about losing control, the reverb's meticulous and the Auto-Tune sleek and flawless.[16]
Reception[edit]
Critical reception[edit]
"Naughty Naughty" garnered mixed reviews from critics, most of whom commented on the song's ability to "look like rock and roll," referencing her debut single. Scott Shelter of Pop Crush gave the song a positive review, noting Black's rough exterior and how it compares to the song's lyrics which acknowledge that "she’s not as scary as she may seem".[14] Shelter went on to say the single was a step forward from "This Is What Rock n' Roll Looks Like", Black's first single, complimenting the song as "mainstream dance-pop" and "totally danceable", later ending his review by awarding the song three-and-a-half stars out of five.[14]
Describing the song as an edgy underground rock anthem, The Prophet Blog reviewed the song as a rejected Born This Way (2011) submission which was traded in for a song like “Judas”.[17] Although a negative review, The Prophet Blog went on to say that the song is bad, "in a semi-good way", referencing the songs catchy lyrics "Naughty Naughty Naughty we like to party / I know you hate it coz we flirt with everybody! Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh!"[17] Katherine St Asaph of PopDust agreed with the Lady Gaga comparison originally reviewed by The Prophet Blog, stating that the song does not look like rock 'n' roll before rating the song two-out-of-five "lightning bolts".[16]
Chart performance[edit]
Two weeks prior to the single's official release, "Naughty Naughty" debuted on Billboard's Hot Dance Club Songs at number forty-two.[18] The following week, the song jumped thirteen spots to number thirty-one and peaked at number six after eleven weeks, dropping to number eight at twelve weeks.[18][19][20]
Music video[edit]
Following the song's release, Black release an "Unofficial Music Video" on December 15, 2011.[21] The video is shot entirely in black and white and was filmed during a show at The Factory in Los Angeles.[21] With the release of the unofficial video, Black made a statement that the official video would be shot in the months following.[21] As of June 2013, no word on the song's official music video has been released.
