entitled Bow Down which Lyrics include ***BOW DOWN BITCHES***
Bow Down was received with relatively Mixed views and some are questioning Beyonce
validity as a female role model having many to view Beyonce` as a complete hypocrite.
Where here for Malikai blogspot members to hear his views on Beyonce.
MALIKAI: I see nothing wrong with Beyonce song Bow Down .Beyonce recently did a full Documentary Beyonce, "Life is but a Dream" Talking about how she wants freedom to express herself fully whether Good ,Bad,Happy,Sad.Beyonce was talking about how being commercially successful limits her creative voice.
I speak my own mind I never worry about Pleasing others
because then you start living according to how others want you to live instead of how you want to
live.That's almost like a form of Slavery lol.
Alot of Women take it as she is degrading Women by Cursing and calling women Bitches
because she did previous songs that is against that mentality .When people generalize that specifically it should make you realise that Beyonce is basically right the world puts limits on her expression and more so on a Black entertainer . Thats why Hip Hop as a Art form is so slow to grow because once you say one song and it may be the theme of violence you cant turn and do a song about Love which is bullshit ....No One person living is 100 % perfect ,100% Good ,so why must a Artist be one way just because you seen them in that one way 1st.
Its as if Black entertainer's Recieve the Most Scrutiny and have to be placed in a box of limitation even by our own people.I believe Beyonce is more of a role model for not being everyones
yes'm Boss or Yes man . I think women overall are tired of just being on way to please men and even other women as well as Black entertainers as a whole. I guarantee you if Lady Gaga did Bow Down Bitches she would get Praise but since Beyonce isnt that they find the smallest opening to knock her off the role model table . By doing this you leave the role model table filled with people who shouldnt be role models in the 1st place.
Q: But does that contradict everything Speaking as a role model but being vulgar?
Malikai: Yes , but its not bad because LIFE IS A CONTRADICTION. Beyonce didnt say all women
are bad and are bitches its a specifically for those who need to bow down and quite frankly some bitches do need to bow down lol.
Why are we so sensitive to what people say? What happened to freedom of speech ? And Why is freedom of speech ok for those who have nothing to say ?
Women ,Black People,Gays,you name it
go through way more difficult struggles everyday. To let words from someone who wasnt making a general statement in the 1st place is dirt off the shoulders...no pun intended.
The time needs to come where people can say a word and understand the context in which its used more than the word itself and not make it a Social and philosophical issue lol
No matter how much you try to stop it people will always use Racial and Gender Slurs .At the end of the day you must know you are more powerful and valuable than a word.
