########################## 09 ####################### Rude is the debut single by Canadian reggae fusion band Magic! from their debut studio album, Dont Kill the Magic. Internationally, the song topped the charts in the United States and the United Kingdom and peaked within the top ten of the charts in Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, Denmark, the Netherlands and Sweden. The song was featured in a 2014 Nestea commercial in the Philippines. Rude was named after the reggae term rude boy and originally based on a real-life situation. The lead singer of Magic!, Nasri, had been in an unhealthy relationship with a previous girlfriend. After Nasri got in a fight with his girlfriend, the band based the song off of that headline. The couple was in a mean time when they were both being rude to each other, as Nasri says in what he describes as a dark vibe.[1] However, the concept was revised and eventually flipped so that Nasri was still dating her, and was asking her father for his blessing to propose to her. Rude was written by Nasri, Adam Messinger, Mark Pellizzer, Ben Spivak and Alex Tanas, and produced by Adam Messinger. According to the sheet music published by Sony/ATV Music Publishing at Musicnotes, Rude is a reggae fusion song set in common time with a tempo of 72 beats per minute. This song is written in the key of B♭ minor. 4Music were positive about the song, saying: One listen and youll be hooked. Some authors have drawn a connection between the lyrics of the song and interracial relationships, but most report it to be a banal tune. Time magazine named Rude the worst song of 2014, criticizing its sanitized reggae-fusion sound and lyrics.
