Over the past couple days, we’ve received several dispatches from Ogle Moles alerting us to an amazing new music video released by Moore rapper Alison Richardson. She goes by the very original and unique stage name Barbie Doll.
Do yourself a favor and watch the video after the jump. The track is called “Barbie World.” The song and video includes numerous references to the Oklahoma City metro, and does a great job depicting the hard-knock life faced by blonde girls from Moore who cruise around in Mustangs.
Check it out:
See what I mean? That’s amazing. She may be the most gifted and talented student to graduate from Westmoore since Bibi Jones!
Anyway, this is usually the part of the article where we make fun of the monstrosity we just watched and crack a few jokes. We’re still going to do that, but since we really really really really want Barbie Doll to become a viral, international success story, I’m going to offer up some constructive criticism and advice to help guide her career…
1. Choose a different name.
I’m not a copyright attorney who specializes in copyright law, but unfortunately, I don’t think Alison can use or profit from the name Barbie Doll. I learned this the hard way when Hasbro sent me and Lorne Fultonberg a cease and desist for using the rap aliases Teddy Ruxpin and Grubby. Although they both accurately describe our looks and personalities, you can’t profit off the name because the toy company owns the copyright. I’d suggest a different name like Koby Teeth or Westmoore Azalea.

2. Stay away from your old high school
I’m sure Alison’s proud of her Westmoore roots, but now that she’s 21, maybe it’s time to move on from the high school days. The last thing she wants to become is David Wooderson from Dazed and Confused. Instead, I’d suggest she shoot future music videos at Rose State, OCCC or whatever junior college she’ll find herself attending in five years.

3. Collaborate with Lawton rapper Knuckles…
It’s been awhile since we’ve heard anything from our Lawton homeboy Knuckles. According to the Ogle Mole Network, he’s been hard at work on a new rap opera called Catfish Twerkin’.
I’m not sure if Barbie Doll would wear “Cowboy Boot And Shorts” but I think they could come up with a cool collaboration that brings together the blossoming rap scenes of Moore and Lawton.

4. Constantly send your music to Kevin Durant
This will show that you’re a real Thunder fan.

5. Find a new squad
As I mentioned, the video does an excellent job capturing Moore life. For example, what group of 20-something Moore residents hasn’t pre-drank vodka in a pink-lit apartment before going out to the Okie Tonk Cafe for a night of binge drinking? That being said, Alison’s friends come across as rude and boring. Rappers need a squad that people want to join, not avoid.

6. Work with Zero in a TLO Diss Track
One of the greatest moments in TLO history occurred when Okie Boy Goon “Zero” released a diss track about TLO and our former contributor Spencer Hicks. If Barbie Doll really wants to get famous, she should do the same thing.

So, what do you think? Good advice, huh? We wish Barbie Doll the best of luck in her future rap career. Please share this article and let’s see if we can make her go viral. You can follow her on Facebook here.
I wonder if somebody signed her yearbook, “Bet you won’t wear that busted red dress and sing that song we wrote in study hall outside the cafeteria someday!” Just a few years later,
Barbie showed them. Barbie showed them all.
Nice talent! Wuz she born with that talent, or did she have a surgeon install it?
WESTMOORE!!!!!
We’ll next see her on Video Vigilante.
RAP BATTLE WE’D LIKE TO SEE:
BARBIE DOLL VS TESS TEAGUE!
GOTDAYUM Them lyrics be trippin………this bitch destined to be burger flippen!
I hope she didn’t pay anyone to do this for her (I mean money—-see comment above regarding the video vigilante)
Tess. Teague.

To be fair, Westmoore is the best Moore.
The best Moore? Is that like jumbo shrimp?
Prawns
Yes!!! But damn, did she really have to point out where she went to school? I’m embarrassed considering some of my classmates, such as Jamey Wright…
She’s definitely proof that the terrorists won. But more importantly, I want to know the over/under on how many future baby daddies she will have by the time she turns 25.
If she’s 21… Hmm. In order to get some folks to take the under, I’m going with 1.5.
Maybe she’ll wash her car before the next video
Brother. She’s not nearly as cute as she thinks she is. Her voice is annoying. And hopefully she doesn’t take credit for the rhymes. They’re embarrassing.
Oh dear god, please make it stop. And use a real studio next time, with a producer who can mix your vocals properly.
To be fair, there is no best Moore. To partly paraphrase a past Lost Ogle thread, they are cool in a Hobby Lobby, CMT, lake party, bedazzled jean, female backward spiked hair kind of way.
As an unfortunate resident of Norman (barely!) I long for the day that Moore annexes Norman by just the tiniest bit…. sigh.
It’s all a matter of perspective. With the exception of this “video”. It’s horrible from all angles.
😁 lol 😂
That was rough to listen to.
+1000
And to think she hails from the same high school as former senator Ralph Shortey… What a legacy, Westmoore High School
Well when I saw Westmoore and Barbie Doll, I had a flashback to 1998 singing Aqua in the locker pit. WESTMOORE IS THE BEST MOORE!
Where are the fake gold chains with large dollar signs to go along with her bundles?
Kids stay away from the pipe.
