I don't see why people are upset. White people went to Africa for very malicious things, but I can also imagine they used different parts in the continent to use as backdrops for movies.

This reminds me of the rage people got when it was revealed that Resident Evil 5 would be based out of Africa and that it was wrong that Africans would be seen and shot as zombies. Like Africans would have some immunity to the virus because we want to preserve feelings.

This is really a non-story.

You want to know what grinds my gears about the video? The dude running out at the end acting like he still wants a thing with her. You have a new lady, go finish sucking face with her.

Does that mean white people shouldn't go on safaris?

If the same video was done with clothing styles of now, would people still care?
 
All art is propaganda, despite the wailings of the "purists".

The video is problematic and will get a lot of views, but in the end she never had my money or support anyway. Hell, it's not even the first problematic swfit video.

But no way will I get hyper defensive at those challenging it. Critique helps art grow.
 
First they say Lana's a fake. Then they call Swift a fake.

Fame is a fickle thing, yo.

I love both of their music.

But The Queen is better. All hail Lana.
 
Saw Mariah Carey was referenced here. I don't know anything about pop music, but I do know this, this was the only 2015 thing involving Mariah Carey that you need.

Dance, monkey, dance.

This is on a completely different level.
