CHOKE

kkskskskskskkskskskdkdkdkkxkx

There's nothing to gain or capitalize off of

There's nothing trendy or IN about Africa

:dead:

CHOKE

And being Pro- anything for a mainstream artist means potentially pissing off the girls that don't feel included

I've been saying this and someone said "why does it matter if it's genuine or not"  :uhh:

I've definitely felt like she is capitalizing on this big "pro black" movement of the time by making it the theme of her music so to speak but idk if I believe she's not genuine.

so what specifically makes you look at her moves through the scope of "capitalizing" rather than using her platform to amplify voices and struggles?

Beyoncé has been capitalizing her whole career :kii:

I was gonna say... wasn't this the B-Day era?  :plzstop:

She was Latina too, didn't she make a whole album in another language

Even if it isn't genuine, I'm glad she took her time and actually researched a bit.
You can tell she went into the project with eyes wide open and was respectful. Even the producers of the lil country segments say she was eager to learn about the different cultures and what makes them unique to each other

Yea it's whatever. She's black at the end a da day, and the mess uplifts people. But she doesn't have everyone saying she's the best performer ever by not being....performative. 

ophababes.

not an answer to my question with all due respect

Hotfuzz07

I guess Steevy is more talking about the goal of penetrating the African market as he is telling it might become one of the biggest music markets in the future due to streaming.

Obviously, if she wanted to have safe hits right now she would not choose this music direction. And as people said, she incorporated African influence into her music (in small doses but still) in the past.


@ Steevy. As a French guy, I really like your Youtube videos ! They have been very informative to me and I like your sense of humor. Keep it up !
