It’s funny, because now he’s trying to garner female support (ala album cover, etc) to sell the album. Since he’s dropped like 3 or 4 songs so far, I guess that’s not going too well.
Nelly aint do shit wrong…he didn’t perpetuate anything thats not true..whatchu want him to do?…Strippers doo exist don’t they….Im sure he’s gone to a strip club..all he did was make a video of it..and put it on at adult hours…If you got a problem with that..then you need to take a look in the mirror and have a talk with the ladies that made that video possible
Nelly clearly isn’t a stereotypical rapper who cannot formulate an intelligent conversation…..an argument that should’ve started when the video came out only came into fruition when comments were made by CNN, FoxNews and BET (can’t stand the propaganda on that damn station)….his rebuttal was so correct that it threw her whole argument out of whack…..Nelly gets a golf clap strictly because he is an intelligent black male who refuses to take the burden of adults who should be responsible for themselves upon himself…..
I totally agree with Nelly on this one. I’m not a fan of most rap today, but I think Nelly’s video is a scapegoat for the bigger issue. I totally agree that Leukemia is a FAR BIGGER PROBLEM than a rap video, but I think some sistas have to blame themselves for some of the problem. In this era of “I want a thug”, not saying that Cornell Haynes is a thug but “Nelly” does portray the bad boy image. I think women (black women especially) shouldn’t be surprised if “Nelly”, the local bad boy, the local drug dealer, or the local gang banger if they are misogynist. Women the song came out in ‘03 and guess who was the number 1 artist that year – you guess it the baddest boy of them all “50 Cent”. I will not believe that only men brought the 50 cent album. And I’m willing to bet my paycheck that some women from Spelman brought the album also.
Black women you need to Smartenup
P.S. Black women make a bigger statement by going to buy the new Common Album (How many Spelman girls have the new Lil Wayne)
I’m a woman and I never saw the big deal with his video. No one needs to be talking about disrespecting women in that video because if they had any amount of self respect, they wouldn’t have done the dam video. A woman can’t be disrespected when she’s a knowing willing paticipant. It isn’t like he filmed them without their knowledge. They were probably strippers who do this every night for a living. They got paid for it, so who the f*ck cares? Obviously they didn’t see anything wrong or they wouldn’t have done the video. This video was YEARS ago. I’m going to need women to let it go already!
I think the what Nelly doesn’t seem to understand is somethings don’t need to be put on VIDEO!. Yes there are strip clubs we all (adults) know this. He didn’t need to visualize this for us we know its out there. There are things in rap, hip-hop, and the club that weren’t made for mass consumption. Its kinda of like grown folk humor; you get it I get it but its not for the kids. This is a metaphor because by kids I mean the greater society outside of hip-hop, and the club scene, they weren’t made to see everything we do and I think thats what Nell doesn’t get!
