Who says white people CAN'T sing the song? Stop trying to be a victim. If you're going to sing it, do it right and leave out "I love my negro nose with Jackson 5 nostrils" because that isn't for you and you don't have one. And actually have a nice singing voice if you're going to post it online for the masses to critique you. Simple.

Gurl bye. People can sing whatever lyrics they want even if it doesn't apply to them.

No, I'm going to sing along to all the words and bop along with the track. You might as well tell everyone with flat asses they have to miss out the words about having a big booty when singing along to "Anaconda". That's just stupid.

And you'll have to deal with the reactions from those around you when you do.

Most people won't be idiots and will be too busy singing along to a SONG. Think about the nonsense you are spouting.

Of course they can, doesn't mean they should.

Given this logic, SL should have NEVER been released.

With this theory a man can't sing a song by a woman if it makes reference about let's say a female body part?

I'm white and latino and I sing each and every Formation lyrics, who gon check me, boo?

This whole "this song is just for US!! it's not FOR YOU!!!!!" mentality surrounding that song is so pathetic/weird

That said, these covers are kinda tragic.

You obviously has some issues you need to work out if you have a problem with someone singing songs when the lyrics doesn't apply to them. I'm praying you never watched any singing competition shows because...

You people are annoying, focused more on divisiveness than using this moment to impose our standards of beauty on the mainstream.

A white women singing "I love my baby heir with baby hair and afros" >>>>>
Cause they're embracing it. When they encounter it, they won't jump to disgusting, racial conclusions.

Woah. I'm all for white people saying they love their negro nose. It subconsciously changes their perception on it.

I think that's part of the reason Beyonce pushed this song so heavily.

Exactly, the song is sooo specific but so unviersal at the same time. I mean Bey sings "Bama" with so much proud and confidence it's like "I don't care what people see bad about me, I AM proud of who I am and where I came from".

Music is very transcending. Stans should be impressed that Bey released such a pro-black song that white people want to sing and dance to as well. The meaning isn't lost. Some of y'all are dramatic as hell.

!!!!!!

the fact that white people love the song regardless is a VICTORY for the very point the song was made yet the SJW want this extreme segregation idgi

Precisely. I'd rather white people singing about positive affirmations of black beauty standards than not singing anything.

Like, this is a good thing, I dunno why ya'll tripping...

Nothing nonsensical about telling a white person to not say they have a "negro nose with jackson 5 nostrils"

I don't know any men that do, besides gay men.

And you probably have some African roots since you have Latino in you. Do you!

This reminds me of the white lady singing Work horribly lmao. I mean, it's always been"cool" to be Black (unless you're black) so White people doing these types of things don't bother me. But at least sound good
