Sis, racism is systemic of course, but prejudiced attacks are racist against PoC. Black people can be racist towards other PoC, and often to dark skinned black people as well, both of which Azealia has been. Systemic racism affects Latinxs, Hmong, Vietnamese, Cambodians, as well as Dalit Hindus (lower caste) and mixed…

This queen <333

Whatevs, I love her witchy hair and I wish mine was as glorious

Oh, god. This reminds me, one of my town’s prominent democratic leaders is Jewish, and she got a bunch of REALLY anti-semitic voice messages on her office and her home phones. The poor woman was scared out of her wits.

This is so awful. As someone who lives in a red state I shudder to think of what’s to come. Reading this right on the heels of the verdict of the Oklahama rape case...

For real. I’ve seen a Taylor Swift stan riding Beyonce’s nut about Becky down the post. I bet half of these folks love Joni’s Blue (Joni is my fave, but she isn’t subtle about who she’s singing about. Which is the point precisely. That this is art, and not some shitty gossipmongering thing. I wish people would keep…

The production is great, the beats are slick, the lyrics are still hilariously petty. Drake is adorable.

Oh, I think those countries had other ways of getting technological imports that do not involve racism, slavery and economic exploitation over centuries, as well as spiritual malaise and a bunch of famines. But you do you, white person. Convince yourself colonialism was good for us natives.

WOW. She was cheated on, and she released an album recounting her personal journey. In that, she openly talks about her anger towards herself and Jay, as well as about other things. And she has one line about the Other woman. That is not “bitching” maam. Creative expression is something else - it’s funny, and it’s…

Deliberately misunderstand? You said :

You seriously don’t believe “becky with the good hair” was an actual clue to the person’s identity, do you? That woman outed herself. Not excusing the stans but are you honestly blaming Beyonce for that ONE single ANONYMOUS shot at the woman her husband cheated on with? You’re gonna break your arm reaching that far lol

Bey has just as many zealous haters as she has stans. There are so many people on Jez tryna come up with the most half-assed things to hate on her.

Yeah but singing about it is not the same as “taking someone to task” - musicians sing about their life, both for release as well as for artistic purposes. It can be about both of those without also having to be about taking someone to task, which should go without saying.

There was also this part of the interview :

You do realise this is an album, right? She gets to sing about personal journeys if she wants INCLUDING the beginning of it. Shouldn’t this be obvious?

It’s pretty awesome.
