Kate Nash Warns Women Against Being Used for Sex
- Posted on Mar 2nd 2010 1:00PM by Emily Tan
With songs like 'Foundations' and 'D---head' on her 2008 debut, 'Made of Bricks,' Kate Nash doesn't mince words. To that end, Nash certainly doesn't hold back on her untitled sophomore album with 'Mansion Song,' a track advising females not to resort to sex just to get ahead."It's basically about people selling themselves short, and that's a really sad thing -- seeing girls just be used and seen as a joke," Nash tells Spinner. "It makes me feel sad to think that some girls use sex as a way in, and as a way to make themselves feel better."
After seeing a group of girls "being passed around at a festival," Nash said she feverishly started writing out the lyrics on her phone. "It was like a real release of anger, aggression and rage really," she says. "I wrote it on my phone like -- it was a text, and it just came out like I threw it up or something."
'Mansion' begins with a 90-second rant. "I can get f---ed like the best of men," she says during the monologue. "Like the best of men, like the worst of pain inflicted on a young girl again, impressed by a guitar hero. He's the top scorer and you're the zero. You're out of your league."
While Nash talks about not giving it all away so quickly, she's fine with women doing things because they want to as opposed to feeling the need to do so. "If they want to do those things, they should do them because they already feel good," she says. "Don't see it as a way to make yourself feel better like it shouldn't be a selling point."
Nash's as-yet-untitled new album will drop on April 20.
