A video that fetishes black womens features and bodies. I was actually shocked and saddened to see that. Didnt think that taylor was as culturally deftone as that video showed. Her comments yesterday back it up


Wait.

Are you saying taylor's video was fetishizing black women? Or are you saying that it shocked and saddened you that a Nikki's video fetishizing black bodies was not as popular as taylor's?

Ed sheehan, great artist. Like his work. Another guy that sings r&b vocals and gets hits on pop radio, and the cross over appeal, that r&b singers of color cant get it (they get stuck on the urban/adult contemporary stations).

Im all over the place #teamnikki

When she stood up to Apple, she was lauded by most of the music industry for her heroism

Also, you hilariously said your daughter couldn't watch minaj's video or rap the lyrics til she was out of the house

Part of tay's appeal is that kids and parents both like her music and they can listen to it together

I'd really like to hear him say something positive about minaj that would make me like her

Also still waiting on a link to academic studies

Her arse looks like she really wants two hams from the store but she's all out of EBT money.

Simple,

Children need to toughen up. Our society as a whole has failed children by enabling them not disciplining them.

Just my personal opinion but I only hate one of the rip pics and that's the extraordinarily dark lips.

That's the problem. We shouldn't have to rely on others to be children's role models or heroes.

Toughen up and embrace the suck

Yeah thats a relevant example. Its noted that r&b singers of color have been suffering in terms of airplay for the past 5-10 years. Part of it is a lack of talent (80s and 90s r&b show a boom in talent and creativity), and record execus desires to have white artist fulfill crossover appeal that black artist struggle to do. Basically, get a white guy/girl to sing r&b songs dressed up as pop and then package it to all platforms. Itll get spins on all platforms. We are seeing it with sam smith, ariana grande, etc.

Pharrell may have had one of the best years of any artist ever last year. He was the lead, a feature, or a producer on like every hit song of 2014.

Pharrell probably got more airplay last year than every prior year of his life combined.
