It's a well known fact that just about every woman on this planet has been or will be cat-called, multiple times, within her lifetime. It ain't pretty and it's actually quite embarrassingly-unsolicited. These songs are perfect responses to any cat-calling experience. Shut-em-down with these tunes... And you'll be sure to turn heads this time.
1. "No Scrub" - TLC
If you don't wanna let them down easy, be blunt about it. TLC has been shutting down cat-callers with this one since 1999. And they have no mercy--but why should we?
2. "No" - Meghan Trainor
Just say "NO," even if you have to be a little flamboyant about it. Trainor's got you covered... on a confident note. She's definitely not subtle but neither are cat-callers, hmm?
3. "I Don't Need a Man" - The Pussycat Dolls
Turn down those unwanted, so called "compliments," with your establishment as an independent woman. Kudos for feminism.
4. "Kitty Kat" - Empress Of
Question them. Make them feel uncomfortable with their own words with this pretty melody.
5. "Catcall" - Jamie Kilstein and The Agenda
"Hey baby, [insert sexually explicit comment here]." ---make them see things from your point of view with this acoustic-genius.
6. "Hey Mami" - Sylvan Esso
This deep melody speaks beautifully against cat-calling.
7. "Fuck You" - Lily Allen
If you feel harassed, disrespected, and fed up with the cat calling... this song gets the point across.
8. "Single Ladies" - Beyoncé
Thrive in your independence and kick em' to the curb.
9. "Paper Gangster" - Lady GaGa
Call them out... as GaGa says we "don't need no Paper Gangsters."
10. "Up Out My Face" - Mariah Carey Ft. Nicki Minaj
Need we say more than this?
11. "Take a Hint" - Victorious Cast
Nothing says "I'm not interested" like a girl who wants you to take the hint--and bombastically sings about it.
12. "Alejandro" - Lady GaGa
His name may not be Alejandro, but GaGa wants him to know it was over before it started. Thanks, but, no thanks.
