The internet has a way of ruining things, and this week, it's the "Electric Slide."
For days, people have been locked in a debate about whether the song "Electric Boogie" is about vibrators. Someone approached Bunny Wailer, the man who wrote the song, about it, and he confirmed that it is indeed about self-pleasure, according to Aazios.
"I'm surprised it took people this long to figure out," Wailer allegedly told the person.
The source said Wailer wrote the song after an ex told him she didn't need him anymore because she had a toy.
This news has left a lot people shook.
Going over Cha Cha Slide and Cupid Shuffle lyrics because I missed the memo that the Electric Slide is about a vibrator and everything is a lie. pic.twitter.com/RW6f7W8QSC

The writer of "The Electric Slide" song has confirmed it's about a vibrator, now it makes sense why women love dancing it to it at weddings while the men stand there not knowing what to do.

So, Joe Jackson died. The man who told on C Murder lied. And, the electric slide is about a vibrator!?
