the lack of black pop stars is a systemic issue it’s not about black audiences being nit picky that’s such a silly conclusion to reach
white people hate on each other too (have you seen the reddit snark pages?) so it’s not that
the labels just aren’t investing in black talent
you guys thinking that stan twitter is why there’s no ~black pop girls~ and not just racist music labels who don’t see black artists as worthy of the investment fries me
i am sorry but it’s weird how white artists/pop girls are the only ones doing numbers right now.. i can’t think of one black pop girl doing huge numbers today
bro you don't have to be the voice of all people or a diplomat or a monk or even represent all victims of SA to simply.....not associate with chris brown my god 😭
The actress Gillian Anderson tried to call attention to the real genocide happening in Sudan, and was immediately attacked by progressives who are angry that her first (and likely only) priority isn't Gaza.
ive seen black ppl say they don’t support palestine because palestine never showed support for black ppl and so black ppl should focus on themselves but then they don’t speak about sudan at all don’t mention nothing about anything black ppl across the globe are facing
Black people do not OWE Palestinians nor any other communities support! The world was sleep during our 400 year genocide... if a they CHOOSE to support, its they OPTION. Thats it man.
unfortunately, a lot of y’all won’t take Chris Brown’s abusive behavior seriously until he beats a woman to death. bc y’all think a “true victim” is a dead one.
Since some of you still say that namjoon and hoseok “just went to a concert” in my comments, then let’s talk about what they actually did.
RM and j-hope went to Chris Brown’s concert, happily shared stories enjoying the show, tagged him to their millions of followers and publicly described meeting the other co-artist as an honour (do your research on him, too).
They also praised a performance that, in my opinion, was vulgar and degrading towards women on stage.
They gave that association a huge platform. And shortly afterwards, Chris Brown felt comfortable enough to enter an ARMY’s tiktok comments and called her a “hoe”.
BTS doesn’t only have adult fans. There are minors, girls and boys who look up to them. Have you stopped to think about what message this sends to those kids?
That’s more than simply being in a crowd listening to music. They chose to attend, chose to publicly share the positive experience and chose to amplify it to millions of people.
And no, they’re not perfect. Artists can make mistakes. What has hurt their fans most is what came after: the dismissive, defensive attitude, the manipulation, the lack of acknowledgement and the impression that they were the ones being wronged rather than addressing why their fans were hurt in the first place.
So please stop reducing all of that to “they just went to a concert.” That’s not the whole story and you know it.
Why do we act like Black men are the only people in the Black community to be stereotyped as violent?
Black women are too.
That's why every time we discuss domestic violence, the conversation shifts to scenarios where men are justified in hitting a woman back.
this one too. read the comment section and quotes and tell me BTS are the only ones to get heat for associating with this monster. step out of your armytwt bubble for once in your life. this isn't a novel thing
Black liberals will defend Black politicians no matter what, even when they are dead ass wrong. It’s like y’all are literally incapable of holding these people accountable for anything.
