@AMENHOOKER Her talking about this now doesn't change the fact that it should be discussed. This is a dumb thought that people shouldn't talk about it because ''it's hot right now''.
The message of the song was strong and the PUBLIC saw that. There's nothing else to discuss here, it needed to be done.
It's not a joke. Why is it unlisted? Why doesn't she want it to be seen if it's so important to her?
It's unlisted only because of TIDAL. She obviously want people to see it there and download the song (some of my friends looked for a link on youtube for days).
The average suburban white person is completely fine with black people and black culture, but only to a certain extent. Any more and it's uncomfortable for them. Which is why Beyst fully embracing it and shoving it down ur throats is 1. why it isn't just trend-hopping and 2. how her message will get heard.
It's like Madonna and homos in the early 90s. Ppl thought it was filthy but over time they were like lol whatever. And it made her a legend. She's obviously ruined that rep since but that's cuz of other things.
