celebrate male sensitivity on the hook-filled “boys poop too” by party rock quartet baby baby
Let’s say you’re a beloved party rock band and you want to write a song about the toxic masculinity that forbids men from showing emotion, you’re probably going to call that song “Boys Poop Too.” You just are. Probably a lot could be said about the meta fact that Baby Baby hides their most emotionally honest song behind a joke title in service of dissecting the same patriarchal impulse that drives them to hide self-same emotions, but more importantly: the song fucking rules. It matches one of their best hooks to a passionate performance from frontman Fontez Brooks and the band at their tightest. Emotional honesty has never been more joyful.
The band explains:
“Boys Poop Too is metaphor for the idea that men are emotion creatures. This song personifies sensitivity. Imagine a world where men didn’t try and “play it cool” in the dating scene. A world where men say things like “Hold my hand as you look me in my eyes.” Well this world exists in this song.”
