What kind of comparison is that lmao

The point is if you dont like the art, turn the art off. You cant change the artist so dont reach for his paintbrush

I knew he wasn’t gonna be a superstar but his career arc ever since his first couple albums has been so disappointing

Ne-Yo made Year of The Gentleman and the world said f*** that, I want music that calls women hoes and s***s.

yes, he made Because Of You
toxic af for me smh, i remember crying listening to it in 8th grade or sum smfh

women aren't the only ones who could restrict themselves. I don't want to watch a nigga twerk. Let alone twerk on Satan. Guess which video I've never watched...bc I honestly couldn't even tell you the song name.

We talk casually about the industry and how the women be the tastemakers for the s*** we makin’

Yeezy, Ne-Yo, the remix ayo
I think it's time to hit 'em with the Mase flow
My, uh, she was gettin' the best of me
But ooh, child, you my destiny
And I know it's especially
Hard with all these girls just testing me (c'mon)
Uh, and you gon' question me
If she even stand next to me
But you should laugh, 'cause you my better half
And these girls just fighting over the rest of me (c'mon)
Right now it feels so crazy
I know she just some lady
And my outfit is just so 80s
Not to mention McLaren Mercedes
And the 26 in-inch rim whee-eels
Look so good with your 6-inch heels
Fly sh- that you be on
Gucci on, Lanvin, Louboutin
Now we high as the way we cruising on
High like I, like Mercury
Why do I mention the solar system?
'Cause, you in my soul and system
And we gon' take her home with this one
I got something that you gon' like
You got something that I can't fight
We got something that we both gon' ride
And I know this much is true
Baby, you have become my addiction
I'm so strung out on you
I can barely move but I like it
And it's all because of you (all because of you)
And it's all because of you (all because of you)
And it's all because of you (all because of you)
And it's all because-
Never get enough
She's the sweetest d***
Think of it every second, I can't get nothing done
Only concern is the next time, I'm gonna get me some
Know I should stay away from, 'cause it's no good for me
I try and try but my obsession won't let me leave
I got a problem and I don't know what to do about it
Even if I did, I don't know if I would quit but I doubt it
I'm taken by the thought of it, and I know this much is true
Baby, you have become my addiction
I'm so strung out on you (so strung out on you)
I can barely move but I like it
And it's all because of you (all because of you)
And it's all because of you (all because of you)
And it's all because of you (all because of you)
And it's all because-
Never get enough (never get enough)
She's the sweetest d***
Ain't no doubt (no doubt)
So strung out (strung out)
Ain't no doubt (there's ain't no doubt, oh)
So strung out (hey)
Over you (you), over you (you), over you
Because of you
And it's all because of you
Never get enough
She's the sweetest d***

No mention of the word b****, hoe, or s***.

NeYo might be right with this topic

This is a reach fam

No the point is even if the people who are offended by it do turn it off, it’s not going to move the needle any for the industry (particularly in hip hop) or larger society most likely.

I don’t think he’s saying “just don’t listen to it if you don’t like it” which seems to be what you’re saying. He’s saying “if people weren’t shaking their ass to it, people would stop making music like this” which is a large oversimplification.

So yeah, they can choose to not listen, but they aren’t changing anything. His insinuation is that it will. But it’s not that simple, it’s a broad statement that sounds logical, but anyone who thinks about it for more than 10 seconds knows it’s not cut and dry. Hence the job comparison.

People say use the same logic for minimum wage and low paying jobs “just go get a better job” or “learn a new skill that’s marketable” or “go to college” but it’s not that black and white.
