And they are too quick to judge. The second lady commenting on the video can't even talk and fumbled over her words repeatedly. I'm offended that she called it out as something to not be artistic. It is obvious she judged before watching and analyzing the whole video. Erykah Badu did not set out to arouse anyone. If anything, she set out to wake someone up from their American Dream Nightmare. How could you not see the importance or concept behind that video? Half of the people working at FOX and on that specific story probably don't know sh_t about Erykah except for that video. "They are quick to assassinate what they do not understand..." I got so upset listening to them talk negative about my girl Badu. Just like the first critic said, I could see if she was sitting on the statue with her legs separate, but she wasn't. She did what everyone else was afraid to do. So many people are stuck in the box and brainwashed to think that they have to live a certain and always go by the rules. Erykah clearly defied them and I give her much kudos for that. Of course, I don't have the guts to do that but I respect her all the way and I respect her even more for making this video. "Kelly" even had the nerve to say "when you involve children with a crime like this, you cross the line". I'm pretty sure there were plenty of children over in Iraq or Afghanistan when Bush was bombing several areas in that vicinity. Get real. This is just a music video, an art form, a spontneous act. She even went under her Twitter account stating that she didn't know children were going to be around and that she hopes they weren't traumatized. Erykah, I know you meant well as all us other artists do, so keep doing your thing mama. I'll probably have more to say later on, but til' then.. Peace
I stopped watching FOX News a long time ago. Need an explanation?
