When she first came on the US music scene, oddly enough on SNL the same night as Sarah Palin, I really liked her. Nice, smokey voice, very humble persona, she knew what she was and where she came from. I guess her voice hasn’t changed but her subject matter has and she’s no longer humble. She dove right into US political controversy on the side of the left, very surprising from someone who credited her initial, meteoric rise to having been on SNL when Sarah Palin was. She’s lost me, I don’t care what she does.
That’s not to say that I’m a fan of Beyoncé at all. She’s even worse, but less disappointing because she never was all that sympathetic as far as I’m concerned.
Let the fools wrestle with themselves over who and what is racist, that’s fine. Pigs wrestle in slop, it’s just what they do.
Kinda like “let the dead bury their own dead”.
