Pandora’s Box Has Been Opened! 🤣

In regards of Beyonce, queen of hip Hop in R Amp B, she has recently taken out a lyric that was considered offensive to some or offensive enough to where she just felt, out of respect and solidarity to the many leagues of fans that she has, she took the lyric out. And almost in rapid succession after this, there have been other grievances people have been filing towards Beyonce, and one of those in particular is Monica Lewinsky. Now, you may be looking at just thinking, who?

Where do we draw the line in art? #lewinsky #beyonce https://s.swell.life/STDRk2aLb6QLcA1

I clearly understand that politicians, you could say politicians are performers and entertainers, right? So I get it. If it was somebody who was a real artist, now that's something totally different. But since Beyonce, she's an entertainer and performer, I understand. But somebody there are some artists and entertainers out there and it's it gets a little like, wait a minute, what is going on here? What happens? But since Beyonce, she is just an entertainer and performer

@OmegaStrange thank you for your response. 🤝

And in the world of r, amp, b and singing, it is very commonplace to have songs written for you and you then have a trusted member or team of members that can help you write songs, to speak to an authenticity with you and to top the charts, hopefully. But it's a little bit different. Now technically she is an artist in many disciplines of artistry, with her also dabbling and acting

Yo, what is up, brother? What is up? So, you know, your Beyonce is technically an artist. And since she's an artist, I do feel like this will hinder her ability to to express herself. So she may have to bring it down, maybe bring it down to a different level. But I do want to ask you this. What if this was JayZ? Can you see him removing the lyric?

In some ways they're meant for each other because they're sort of opposites of the same coin, but they also sort of have the same mindset when it comes to running the business. This

And now when you watch Peter Pan, even on Disney Plus, a black screen pops up with words. It's a paragraph that basically says, we know this was wrong. We know we art up. But you know what? We're not going to delete it because we need to show people that this was wrong and that we need to change and be better in the future. So they acknowledge that it's wrong, but they didn't change it because it is an art and music artist

Even in kids cartoons, they had a lot of gay jokes, gay bashing jokes, if you were so to say. But yeah, monica Lewinsky, that's funny. Yeah, I mean, she was a grown woman, she was taken advantage of, but at the same time, yeah, she's an icon, probably in dubious ways that she wishes she never was, but such is line art

I actually just downloaded this app and this was my first time being on here. I thought it was pretty cool, you know, I thought it might be neat to start a podcast, but I just like to talk about a bunch of random stuff so a podcast wouldn't be appropriate. Besides, I refactor. Who has the time? Nobody got time for that anyway. That made me think of when you were talking about acting like it doesn't exist. Did you know?

Different things are appropriate for different times. So as times change things, they become inappropriate. But if it's already happened, then what's the sense in going back to Noah's site 2020? My bad. At. I made a mistake. Move on

@Mama_G gone head gurrrl! 🤣🤣

It has some racial scenes in there. I haven't seen the film. I probably will never see it, but it's like steeped in controversy because of that. But people still regard it as an iconic classic. I don't know. It's weird. And as you said, with the paragraph and subtitles explaining the insensitivity of it, but still to keep it there. And they're actually kind of owning it in a different way
