Three of the top tiers of women in the music industry joined together for a collaboration on Charlie\u2019s Angels<\/em> soundtrack single \u201cDon\u2019t Call Me Angel.\u201d In the much-awaited single, Ariana Grande, Miley Cyrus, and Lana Del Rey intertwined their separate genres of music to bring an anthem for independent women\u2014  except, it is not so much of an \u201canthem,\u201d but rather a convoluted cacophony trying to make sense of itself. The song has simply fallen short of its overhyped and expected success. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The trio released their song and music video after days of teasing on social media, when the clock struck midnight on Friday, September 13th. The concept behind the song was to showcase three women of different design and personalities uniting together to show that men hold no control over them. It holds the essence of the movie Charlie\u2019s Angels<\/em> in both the song and video, yet there\u2019s something that just isn\u2019t right. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each of these artists holds the capability of producing quality content; but when it came to producing their most recent song, the combination of their differing vocal styles didn\u2019t mingle well with each other. Each artist’s verse sounds like clips and distorted pieces from different songs being mixed together. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The four-octave range of Ariana Grande\u2019s voice followed by Lana del Rey\u2019s soft and \u201cdream pop\u201d music has the song following two separate singing styles that don\u2019t mesh. The video is the exact representation of the mess that this song really is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The three women present themselves in the music video as the stereotypical\u201cVictoria’s Secret\u201d models, each on a mission showing their different approaches to espionage\u2013 neither flowing with the other. Ariana takes the diplomatic approach, while Miley is seen in a bloody brawl, and Lana is left mesmerizing her own collection of weapons. The deliberation and presentation of the video made fans even more confused. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three of Hollywood\u2019s most famous women came together to produce a disarray and underwhelming song that leaves many wanting more.
