The Fuck?

samieguuuurl:

Nicki Minaj’s rendition of “I Feel Pretty” makes me want to gouge my eyes out and then tare my ears off.

And the fuck is she doing now? DUDE…just stick to singing…you can’t rap…

You wouldn’t know what I’m talking about unless you’re watching the Grammy’s this very second. If you wanna know I suggest you turn on your TV or google it…but then again I don’t exactly recommend it…

Dear God why does everyone love her music?

I don’t really listen to her music as it’s mostly outside of my genre interest, but let me tell you why I love Nicki as an artist and as a human being. Because of this:

“When I started making those weird voices, a lot of people told me how whack it was,” she says, naming a few label higher-ups who warned her against straying too far from tradition. “‘What the fuck are you doing?’ they’d say. ‘Why do you sound like that? That doesn’t sound sexy to me.’ And then I started saying, ‘Oh, that’s not sexy to you? Good. I’m going to do it more. Maybe I don’t want to be sexy to you today.” For the first time since entering the room, Minaj loses her cool. Her voice goes up an octave, words run together in breathless exasperation, her lips purse, and she ever-so-slightly rolls her neck to suggest the quiet storm often obscured beneath the placid face of a wide-eyed princess.”

Watch this and tell me that this is not a voice that we NEED in the top tier of social media aimed at young people.

“When I am assertive, I’m a bitch. When a man is assertive, he’s a boss. He bossed up. No negative connotation behind ‘bossed up.’ But lots of negative connotation behind being a bitch. Donald Trump can say, ‘You’re fired.’ Let Martha Stewart run her company the same way and be the same way. [People will say] ‘F—-ing old evil bitch!’ But Donald Trump, he gets to hang out with young bitches and have 50 different wives and just be cool. ‘Oh, Donald, we love you, Donald Trump!’”

“When you’re a girl, you have to be everything. You have to be dope at what you do but you have to be super sweet and you have to be sexy and you have to be this, you have to be that, and you have to be nice,” she says. “It’s like, ‘I can’t be all those things at once. I’m a human being.’ “

Oh and also steampunk with transhumanist themes.
