"LEMONADE" MUSIC VIDEO CONTROVERSY
Danity Kane dropped their new music video featuring Tyga for “Lemonade” earlier this week on MTV, followed by the upload to many streaming services. Altogether, the video received a whopping six million views in just twenty-four hours collectively between each service it was uploaded to. However, critics and the media have been firing shots at the newly pronounced trio for their use of children and vulgar language in the new video. In one scene, a little African-American girl who is resembling Dawn in the group is approached by an African-American boy who resembles Tyga. In that scene, she drops the “f”-bomb and the “s”-word, while throwing lemonade in his face, which was handed to her by Dawn. Although she still shows her man some love, Aubrey O’Day, who we all know loves her black candy, comments: “Aw, that’s so cute!” encouraging the little girl for her actions. Meanwhile, the two White girls resembling Aubrey and Shannon have not said a single vulgar word in the entire video, and neither does Tyga in his verse. Has Danity Kane pushed it a bit too far with their new video? That’s what many think apparently, take a look at these...

You would think that Danity Kane was keeping it classy and cute, bashing controversial-thirsty artists, when really they are the criminals themselves. By getting their only child to curse in the video be a black girl is truly disgraceful, and Aubrey's black-wannabe act never quits. I think they just might be the ones that are looking thirsty.

Danity Kane has caused upset feelings to many people in the black community with Aubrey O’Day’s over-the-top black act and “Lemonade” video. With Tyga supporting the notion of this video, along with Revolution Records and The Stereotypes playing roles in directing it - it comes as another piece of evidence to how corrupted and ridiculed the music industry can be.

Don’t watch Danity Kane’s new video. It’s absolutely ridiculous how the only child cursing just happens to be black and Dawn is pushing for it. I honestly don’t get it.

On top of these three notorious sources in Pop Culture and News Reports, many other individuals have questioned the same thing. We definitely expect the three lovely ladies to respond to this soon… especially Aubrey.
