Miley Cyrus & 'Decisions': Singer Hooks Up With Borgore For Dubstep Track (VIDEO)

Guess What Miley's Doing Now
|

Miley Cyrus -- she of the new coif -- has teamed up with Israeli dubstep producer Borgore for a new song. The track, "Decisions," follows a formula familiar to fans of bro-step: spare and jingly buildups leading up to wobbly and self-destructive-sounding breakdowns that old people have been known to describe as reticent of dial-up internet.

Moving into electronic dance music (EDM) has proven a safe bet for a whole host of pop stars , from Usher to Rihanna to Paris Hilton. (Also, this dance remix of "Call Me Maybe" is promising.) And while those artists have had varying success (Rihanna: gold; Paris: dud ), they generally stuck producers who are more melody driven.

What we have here in the form of "Decisions" are Miley's backing vocals laced around a track that's neither particularly inventive nor that cathartic. In fact, her singing is so subtle that we weren't even sure this was one of her songs. Was it a publicity stunt by Borgore? After all, he did make a track with the chorus "All these b----es wanna lick my ice cream." But alas:

Then again, this song is about cake ("b----es love cake"), so we do have to give Borgore some credit for sticking to a theme. There's a remix pack available, featuring cuts by Dead Audio and Cedric Gervais, the latter of whom you may remember as the man behind "Have You Seen Molly," a song that's definitely not about drugs, according to Madonna .
