Hypnotico

"Hypnotico" is a song recorded by American entertainer Jennifer Lopez for her seventh studio album Love?

"Hypnotico" was written by RedOne, Lady Gaga, Aliaune "Akon" Thiam, Claude Kelly and Tami Chynn.

Akon and RedOne flew Gaga and Kelly to Los Angeles to write songs for Chynn's second studio album Prima Donna.

From that CD of tracks he wrote songs for Leona Lewis ("Forgive Me"), Whitney Houston ("Like I Never Left", "I Got You") and Michael Jackson ("Hold My Hand").

[1] Chynn recorded "Hypnotico" in early 2008 at a studio in Atlanta, Georgia with Akon and RedOne producing, as part of her 13-track Prima Donna project initially intended for release in August 2008.

[11] Categorized as a "synth-heavy record",[12] the dancehall-tinged[2] track also contains handclaps and "boy-toying," with syllables and a "boricua shoutout",[13] all running at 119 bpm.

[12] "They love me for my body / I'm original sexy," sings Lopez over the "bombastic bassline" before the chanting chorus kicks in: "All the boys are lovin' when we do our thing / We just some silly heartbreakers tonight".

[14] He wrote that it "has some great breaks", a "serious electro key line", and he thought the repetitive bassline would be good for dancing.

[17] Allison Stewart from The Washington Post further expanded on this view, stating that "without the slightest hint of noblesse oblige" to Gaga, "Hypnotico" is a synthy, "burbly slip" of a song.

In addition, he concluded that "The thump that rides the song's undercurrent of ethereal echoes and a group chant of the chorus is a pretty solid reminder that this is most definitely a Gaga jam, which quickly gained J.

[20] Shane Phoenix of Hot Spots gave a positive review of the song, stating that "the girls are going to love the lyrics.

It brings total sex appeal and groove that starts the hips swinging and is so meant to break the set into a dark drive and into sensual exploration of a grind close contact dance rhythm".

"[8] Emily Exton of Popdust agreed, adding that "you'd be silly not to think" that the song's chorus will become a dance-floor chant among "slightly intoxicated females (and males) in bars across America this summer".

[15] She additionally wrote that it was "impossible to get [the song] out of your head after more than one listen" although becoming "increasingly monotonous over nearly three and half minutes"[15] Digital Spy's Robert Copsey roughly expanded on this view, stating that "Hypnotico" is not anything "we haven't heard before," although elaborating that it is worthy of a standalone release.
