600 Million. The numbers in this case speak for themselves.

really nothing else to say.

you can still be worth a lot of money and still lack quality
McDonald's pull in billions but they're defo not the definition of fine cuisine

not arguing perceived quality

Just referring to numbers and how they relate to how much Tyler Perry is loved and adored any many

But is still subject to criticism and conversation.

Bruno ain't getting a free pass from me . Bdbdbdbdbbd

i thought the gorls were being a little harsh on him at first when that whole appropriation thing came up

yall know for the most part i feel if someone is genuinely influenced by the culture why cant they dabble in it a lil. i can hear genuine influence when i listen to bruno mars - down to that "ahhh hooooo" adlib in finesse that was slim from 112 DOWNE. super small things like that ...that most people won't really notice....lets me know how DEEPLY influenced someone is. the intricate teas. and he has them.

but other parts of the album were  like ok i get why the gorls were tugging

the whole "i got all the shalequas waiting on for me" line in one song made me side eye him.   

then that song talking about relaxing with a perm and mess....
"u got tah relax it!"



at that point i was like ok. ur not black luv stop this.
there has to be a line somewhere

but he is so fucking talented. versace on the floor is fuckin amazing
just those two things really made me side eye him

Bruno is a very good performer and showman in general but the music never did it for me

Aside from a few singles

I'm sorry but BruNO is so terrible to me

His music is so generic and predictable.... which is a shame because he's really talented (good singer, good producer, multi-instrumentalist, etc). He needs to switch up the formula because that retro! throwback! mess he's been doing for the past 10 years is late.

not a Nicki stan

Bruno >

I like Bruno, he usually has solid albums.

He can be a little corny, but he's never come off as a culture vulture to me.

I feel like the people who don't like him or think he's cultural appropriating are mad he does black genres of music and has more success with it then black artists do, which I can understand.

Not really his fault though.

thats exactly it
like here he is with Anderson Paak, getting that song to #1
meanwhile the music on Anderson's last album w/Bran & Smokey Robinson etc couldnt even get on the Hot 100

If Tyler can get called to the carpet for his presentation of Black culture , Bruno def ain't off limits for me.

Wont coddle him but valid points made

[JCJ]

Outside of Black twitter, Bruno is LOVED.

the Black aunties, uncles and legends adore him....along with the rest of the world.

well the same goes for Tyler Perry and that doesn't stop people here from questioning him

sffsfs

am not holding my tongue for someone who's not even Black at all

but glad to see HE gets backup when needed from the stans

n

Not you comparing a damn Tyler Perry to Bruno
