I agree that we’re generally too far gone in this for various reasons, But people been complaining about the content of rap for men and women since C Delores Tucker
I think that since trap music became the dominant rap meta, nuance and balance has been removed from the music by nature of how matter of fact and basic the songwriting is; “other sides” to the lifestyle arent being covered in the music
Where is yung miami song bout being stranded in a strange city wearing the same leggings for days taking “bird baths” in fast food restaurants and truck stops lol why glamorize one side of a lifestyle to these jits without telling the whole story, But a sparse jail bar every now and then aside u could say the same about a rick ross or whoever, certainly
I don’t think artists should be obligated to have to dig into their traumas for fans or the sake of music, she’s simply making a song about a reality she’s experiencing and those with an inability to discern gotta look in the mirror lmao

I mean thats acceptable for fully grown people but its plenty of people under 16-18 who consume this type of s***
Of course the next thing is “thats the parents fault” but these artists themselves know that not everyones parents are fit lol or give a f*** at all or especially nowadays given the financial climate and prices of everything, just work all the time to not be able to super monitor them. But fair enough that thats not necessarily the artists problem, but people also look for roundabout deflections to not acknowledge all this s*** has trickle down effect, Word to NBA JaBoy last chance as a Portland TrailBlazer lmao or all the kids walking around with Shiestys rn

unfortunately this situation built upon just more of the millennial vs gen z/gender war bullshit and not an actual serious discussion taking place so we can’t even get to the youth when both sides of the argument are being dishonest

Respectfully bro to me that leans towards another deflection although again i generally feel like the culture is too far gone lowkey anyways lol reactions like this (not specifically you but reactions to this convo in general) kinda show that
It’s really only women calling her out or at least what started this convo so idk what you mean by gender war, Charleston white and dee-1 do this to the men. and Yung Miami 32/1994 she’d be considered a millennial with keri, no? And not gen z

is it a deflection tho or do they not like the artist at the center of the hit song? we have to start calling it what it is…I bet all these women were calling themselves Savages when Meg was running around with Bey in Renaissance era…all of a sudden now there’s a difference? It’s a disingenuous conversation and everyone deflecting to appear as if they have always cared because it’s Young Miami or Sexyy Red
And Miami 3 years older than me, she’s closer to the actual reality of what’s happening outside than Keri is at 43 which is why I said that. s***, actually, many women in Keri’s age range going through divorces RIGHT NOW and back outside so they way off if they think this isn’t somewhat normal behavior nowadays. It’s just more of the old vs young to go along with the gender wars s*** that’s been happening all decade
I agree with this only on the occasions if we stop praising the male rappers who constantly push degeneracy (iykyk)
Even then, niggas will always love them toxic f***boy melodic lean raps
Can you imagine how crazy the backlash for Freak Like Me was in the 90s
That song crazy. Slaps though

Yeah this nothing new.
They s***ted on adina. They s***ted on lil kim when she first came out.
This conservatism attitude when it comes to black femininity is so old it’s the reason why NAACP (they forever some hoes for this) decided to put Rosa Parks as the posterchild for the bus sittins instead of Claudette Colvin because (even though she legit did it first at 15) she was also both unmarried and pregnant so it wouldnt be a “good look.”
Respectability politics been a historical thorn in our side forever @op
People only want positive uplifting music even if it avoids the dark reality?
I mean realistically it should be boycott because Yung Miami was aware and possibly involved in that weirdo Diddy s***. Not because it's "harmful" or whatever.
"Harmful" hip-hop music from women have often gotten big in the summer. Simply put, it gets the people going
just listened to spend dat, this s*** is ass wtf
this woman has bragged about getting peed on not sure wut you were expectin
They’re right. I understand wanting to have fun and turn up but there has to be a balance. Song is terrible too.
Keri hilson is such a hating ass hoe always has been too
she a fine one tho
What are we grilling on the 4th
When a man releases a song with a similar message, no one gives a flying f***. Let her live
They hating bc she made a hit!
India Arie, she’s never been on that wave, she was woke before it was cool, all love to her, but the rest of these women probably lived that exact life! Just dressed in a fancier dress. But because Yung Miami wants to sing and rap about it, and was associated with Diddy, they’re starting a dialogue? Man f*** off!
The rest of these women probably lived that life? What a crazy borderline racist assumption. I really hope you not black.
Why are yall in the thread acting like this song is the first song to get this type of criticism? There are plenty of people tat criticize s*** like Sexyy Red and s*** like that, plenty of people the criticize “harmful” male rap lol are yall under a rock or something? You can like the song or not care about what people are suggesting or whatever but at least make assessments rooted in reality.
Send it to the club and radio DJs NOW!!!
https://twitter.com/KollegeKidd/status/2072581478421078325perfect response if Miami sees this, just keep it pushing!

Long winded way to say “I love and support this song and it’s message”
KTT vs real feminists
