The aftermath of a national tragedy knows no bounds, especially as far as pop culture is concerned. Multiple television programs were cancelled or delayed, and now it seems the pop charts have been shaken up as a result as well. “Die Young,” the seemingly inescapable single from Ke$ha, has been pulled from numerous stations across the country following the massacre in Newtown, CT last week.

This track is a straight-up dance song, with Christina’s undeniable vocals ripping through the beat, but I’m not sure pop fans will necessarily be wowed. Decide for yourself, after the jump.
We have not seen a lyric sheet for “Your Body” as of yet, but what the hell does it mean …

WATCH: Dave Chappelle’s First (Real) Interview In Five Years

Hopefully this is a sign of Chappelle’s rumored return to the mainstream. We’re sure it will never …
