YONCE BISH!
Last night she did another surprise drop, similar to her album that caused a massive heart attack across the globe, with her new video "Formation".
Beyonce's video is the epitome of Pro-Black, Black Feminism, Protection of Black Childhood, Unapologetic Black Woman, Black Girl Magic, and Social Awareness.
Beyonce address Katrina, police brutality, the beauty of black female naturalness, attacking that "illuminati mess", and being black and so so so proud of it that she declares she got "hot sauce in her bag, swag!".
Yonce goes further by stating that the woman, if you please her right, you might get rewarded with a treat: Red Lobster.
Damn, Yonce strikes again and hits hard with this video.
Just look at the plethora of natural black female hair! Beyonce rips apart the paparazzi and haters who often go after Blue Ivy's natural tresses stating "I like my baby hair with baby hair and afro." So yes, all you haters can take several seats in the corner. Beyonce loves that natural hair, she loves her child being natural and the way she is supposed to be; a care free black child not held down by your ridiculous european standards of beauty.
The singer goes in again, reclaiming and proud of black features. "I like my negro nose with Jackson 5 nostril".
Did I mention, she dresses like the next Supreme, oh so ready to snatch the wigs and edges off of every hater, internalized racist holding, nay sayer, and fool who doesn't believe in black women or black lives matter?
Go in deeper Beyonce, deeper for all the people who continue looking down on black women.
"Okay ladies, let's get in formation"!
Symbolism is in abundance in this video:
Beyonce drowning on a cop car
A black boy dancing in a hoodie in front of a police squad
The police putting their hands up
Black women in natural hair styles
Black women sitting in positions of power and elegance
Natural hair styles period
Blue Ivy and other black girls standing proud with their natural hair
Little black girls playing and running about
New Orleans and the culture
"Stop Shooting Us" spray painted on a wall
"Illuminati mess"- debunk the myth if you are black and successful, it just gotta be supernatural mess involved
Beyonce has taken her stance, she isn't as Django described that "exceptional nigga" or that "1 in a million negro". No, Beyonce is not shedding her blackness to be accepted by the media or society. Beyonce is black, and she ain't gonna apologize.
Yes, Yonce.
You're helping us reclaim the word negro.
You just made a black anthem, and it is so right. It is everything we black women need right now in music. And I'm so here for it.
However, I can't help but sit and wait. Waiting for the same people who talked negative about our natural hair, our blackness, and black people in general to start hopping around on the bandwagon saying "I like my negro nose, my afro, I carry hot sauce in my bag" and so on. I literally am sitting waiting for Kylie Jenner to make an appointment for "negro nose" cause obviously her big lips are soooo on trend and desirable now, but are gross on black women for the centuries we have had them.
Also, the people who don't like the song or video. That's cause Beyonce has directly pointed out black women, she literally is singing to us. To the visuals, the lyrics, the images, it is all to us.
Don't forget though: Beyonce will be PERFORMING at the Super Bowl Half Time.
I'm eager to see her say "negro nose" and all the other hot button lyrics live among an audience that is so mainstream is hurts.
You can watch the video here: Formation Video (for some reason it is not posted on YouTube yet)
Gotta admit though, kinda cold Miss Yonce dropped this bomb while Rihanna's Anti is still so fresh. Sorry Rih, but Beyonce had to do it!
Yonce straight Queenin.
What do you think about the video?
XoXo, Razz
