Why can only black people have negro noses? What if a white person wants to have an Afro and Jackson 5 nostrils? Its racist if you say they can't! Let them celebrate! Its not like they've been calling stereotypical black features ugly for decades or anything! #AllFeaturesMatter #WhiteGirlsGetInFormationToo #MusicIsForAll #EveryoneCanRelateToEverything
It all comes down to intent. I'm white and I personally don't feel comfortable singing the word "negro" so I don't but if I see someone bopping to the song in the club and chanting along I don't feel like it's coming from a place of malintent.
But I think we are losing sight of what really matters here and that is the fact that this is devastatingly hilarious

Flat out. I had to go to YouTube and hunt down the full covers from some of those Twitter clips. The **** is GOLDEN.
I took the liberty of altering some of the lyrics so my fellow white people can cover the song without any backlash.

Y'all haters corny with that Illuminati mess
Paparazzi, catch my fly, and my cocky fresh
I'm so reckless when I rock my Chanel dress (stylish)
I'm so possessive so I rock his Piguet watches

You mix that Mayo with that cheddar make a Louisville cheesehead
I like my baby heir with baby hair and bowl cuts
I like my cracker nose with them Beatles' nostrils
Born wit' all this money, yeah they never take the privilege out me
I got a milk jug in my bag, swag
Oh yeah, baby, oh yeah I, ohhhhh, oh, yes, I like that
I did not come to play with you hoes, haha
I came to Britney, bitch
I like potatoes and garden peas, bitch
Oh, yes, you best believe it
This was honestly so hard to do, I'm no song writer
I don't get it.... Everyone says they want equality for blacks, whites, all races, yet a white guy covers a song embracing black culture and gets bashed for it. So do you want equality or no?
I'm all for Formation and the message it sends, but if anyone other then a black person wants to embrace the message it sends, they're not allowed to? That makes the whole purpose invalid. Nothing's ever going to change if people look at it like that.
Don't twist my words to try and prove a point.
NICKI MINAJ is a black female rapper who raps about being gangster. Is that too hard to understand?
The fact that Nicki calls herself a gangster has nothing to do with her being black. It isn't even remotely the same as singing about having a negro nose. It isn't that hard to understand.
What does it matter? Nicki is telling HER story in the song. So does Beyonce.
The difference is, Nicki is rapping about being a gangster, but she just so happens to be black as well. Beyoncé is black and made a song about being black. One isn't exclusive to blacks while the other is
