My first exposure to Owens was on an episode of The Rubin Report (ew ew) where she debated Blair White (also ew) and refused to acknowledge Blair as a woman, actually calling her a "grown man" and insisting that it's not an attack, it's a fact. So honestly, fuck all these people - Kanye included. He was NEVER the musical genius y'all claimed him to be, just in touch about what's going on outside the mainstream. Done. End. No return, thank you.
I only listened to the album once this morning but I kind of have to agree. I just prefer Nightride or Aquarius. And isn't this the official "label let me release it" album? Maybe they should just let her do her the way she wants.
Also, I'm just so done with Offset that I can't even really enjoy No Drama (which is one of the better songs).
Okay, so the songs aren't bad and I get that Chun-Li is a fictional character (who is STILL Chinese) but I'm just like....this is the same woman who was calling out NYFW hard for appropriating black culture right? Which is still true but um...girl???
"The Morning" will always be my favourite weekend song but I also need to complain about "King of the Fall". That whole video is shot in my original Toronto neighbourhood (Yay! Parkdale!) so I should like it but that fucking line "I make all of them swallow" really grosses me out. Make, Abel? Really? You know, you could have saved the song for me if you said "LET" instead of "Make". I'm sorry but such a creep...
