"No" is a song by American singer-songwriter Meghan Trainor from her second major-label studio album Thank You (2016). Ricky Reed produced the song and wrote it with Trainor and Jacob Kasher Hindlin; Epic Records released it as the album's lead single on March 4, 2016. A dance-pop song inspired by 1990s music and R&B, "No" has lyrics about sexual consent and women's empowerment which encourage them to reject unwanted advances from men. Music critics praised "No" as a showcase of Trainor's confident and mature side, and deemed it an improvement from the lyrics on earlier Trainor songs. The song reached the top 10 on charts in various countries, including at number three in the United States, and earned multi-platinum certifications in Australia, Canada, and Poland. Critics compared its music video, which features Trainor performing choreography in a warehouse, to the visuals of various 1990s female artists and praised her evolution in it. Trainor performed the song on television shows such as the iHeartRadio Music Awards and The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and her concert tours. (Full article...)
