Farrah Abraham responds to criticism of debut song “Rock Bottom”
          


Teen Mom Farrah Abraham is not afraid to try new things when it comes to continuing a career after her run on the game-changing MTV show. One of the recent ventures was to record songs that will accompany her book, My Teenage Dream Ended.

She gave an early listen with the debut track “Getting Up From Rock Bottom” and the criticism of the intensely Autotuned work has come fast and fierce. Farrah recently spoke with Ology and addressed the bashing of the song.

Before we get to her response I pieced together just a small sampling of what folks were writing about the tune via the app it was published on. Soundcloud allows listeners to highlight a portion of a track and leave their own personal ruminations and opinions for the song in question.

Some of the replies to Farrah Abraham's song "Rock Bottom"

I think we get the picture. Here’s Farrah’s thoughts on the overwhelmingly negative feedback to her song.

There’s going to be lots of criticism everywhere. Most people don’t look at as therapeutic. To me, that was therapeutic. It was also another way for me to express myself. I’m an artist, I’m an entrepreneur. I love to dive in and experience new things now in a positive way. I have to say that they’ve only heard one song, but then they haven’t heard all of the songs that go with the book. It is a book track. It is not like a Kanye West soundtrack or an album. The titles of those songs match 10 of the titles in the book, and those are the most important, I would say, times in my life as a teenager, and I thought it was really cool to have the opportunity to record my book because lots of teenagers, myself included, like music sometimes over book reading. I thought it was a great way to share other emotions through music rather than just reading.

Well there you have it. If you’re interested in reading our attempt at transcribing the lyrics and details on how you can get a copy of the album you can go here.

      Ugh, just shut up already Farrah. Your time in the limelight is nearing the end so stop trying to stretch your 15 minutes of fame.

    • steph

      wow, i would be very ashamed if i was farrah, but this girl lives in her own little world.

    • Moi

      She’s an artist? Bwahhhhh No Farrah – this does not make you an artist. Not by any stretch of the imagination.

    • savannah

      Please noooo! There are 9 more “tracks” to go along with her book? Noooo!!

    • coco

      I don’t care how Farrah tries to spin this, the song was horrible. Period. Anyone with ears can hear that. I don’t care what your taste in music is, this sounds psychotic.

    • LaDy

      Maybe just keep your musical therapy to yourself next time, Farrah? Just a thought.

    • Rally

      Exactly laDy, and I think this broad’s therapy consists of getting attention and getting paid.

      I can’t wait to laugh at the other songs.

    • Nelly

      ”I’m an artist” LMFAO!

    • Katie

      The NERVE she has to call herself an artist. When there’s real artists who have worked their whole lives to be REAL artists. She’s beyond delusional.

    • Jessica

      Farrah is delusional she really thinks she is star.

    • catherine

      urgh! she is NOT an artist! an autotuned song could be done by pretty much anyone. an artist has NATURAL talent, she does not. she is just trying to stay “famous” and make money off of fans. she is trying everything to make money without having to actually work!

    • Brianna

      Farrah take your bologna sandwhiches somewhere else :)

    • Kelly

      Letting your feelings out through music? Fine, whatever makes you happy, but subjecting the rest of us to it? No thanks.

      PS: recording yourself screeching into a microphone does not make you an artist.

      Umm…a soundtrack for her book?! I have never heard of somebody making a soundtrack for their book. I wish her 15 mins of fame would hurry up and go away. She is not an artist. She is a girl who got onto a show on MTV because she got knocked up at 16.

    • rayan

      thats the worst song i have ever heard.. same beat over and over and her voice is auto tune entire song, can’t understand what she says… if her voice sucks in auto tune i would hate to hear it normally. she just needs to plug her pie hole that chick is a mess all together.

    • Phillygal

      I sing in the shower and find it therapeutic so I guess that makes me an artist too!

    • Ladylow

      I looked for her song on youtube, closed my eyes and just listen…. I started to laugh, omg FARRAH!!! Dont call yourself an artist!
      I couldnt understand what she was saying, she wasnt singing more like talking in a robotic kinda way, at the end i was like WOW. This girl is a trip.

    • OhMyGeez

      She’s a self-absorbed spoiled brat. Seeing the way she treats her parents, no wonder she’s still single.

    • whoa

      If it was “theraputic” then she wouldn’t be trying to make money off of it and milk her 15 minutes of fame. Maybe try writing it in a journal or seeing a therapist.

    • amanda

      This is the best excuse she could come up with. Dont feed us this Bull crap about helping people take the journey with you instead of reading.. no one could understand a word of it.

    • Sarah

      Narcasistic is the word that comes to mind. Her parents have allowed her to treat them horribly which has totally taught her to treat the world in the same way. She is totally unable to see her own behaviors.

    • Jenn

      Seriously Farrah, go lay down on some train tracks
