K-Pop Hostage Situation

Driving with Tiny is like being held hostage by a minuscule K-pop terrorist. Coming home from a medical appointment in Rochester this evening, I got:

“P-Pop Mama. P-Pop.”

I really don’t like K-Pop so I tried a variety of music on her. Kendrick Lamar?

“P-Pop Mama. P-Pop.”

Kids favorites like The Wheels on the Bus?

“P-Pop Mama. P-Pop.”

We settled on Cardi B for a little while but then it started again, more insistently:

“P-POP MAMA. P-POP.”

Siiiiiiigh.

Ani Difranco?

“P-POP MAMA. P-POP. P-POP!!”

Siiiiiiiiiiiigh.

There’s no negotiating in this hostage situation. K-Pop it is. Only the girl bands. And only select songs. Again and again and again.

The kid’s got some major staying power, I’ll give her that. And lungs!

Tiny dancing to her “P-Pop” this summer. She’s an addict. We need a recovery program in this house!
