Yes, this video essay is from a white dude, who is probably American AND straight, but I thought it was worth sharing

those lyrics…. yikes.

I know she has a whole shtick being ~different or whatever, but I do wonder what the fuck she’s seen in her childhood that she can so easily defend her pedophile brother, collaborate with rapists, MARRY & have a child with a rapist, and write out those lyrics. WHY is this is normal for her?

[screamingintune]

I have always thought she was at the very least socialized into having awful values if not victimized herself. You don't just casually decide abusers are okay people usually. Her lyrics have raised flags before her behavior did

I know that Nicki saw her mom being physically abused but I wonder if she experienced it herself. And then proceeded to get into relationships with abusers. I can't remember her ever bringing up sexual abuse but if she didn't experience (and I hope she didn't) something was normalized for her.

One thing people seem to leave out of her weird constant association with pedophiles/rapists, is that her alter-ego 'Roman' is called 'Roman Zolanski' in full... a clear reference to Roman Polanski.

serious yikes she is just THE WORST

[kawaiiairbender]

I got into a Barb about this and they were arguing down that the two were not related. Bc Nicki had a lyric that they didn't have anything to worry each other.

I felt like that 'what's not clicking' clip/meme

It's not even a good alter-ego name! I assume it's meant to be wink-wink inflammatory, but yikes.

*sits butt firmly into chair eating popcorn for this comment thread * 💁🏾‍♂️🪑🍿🍷

Did y’all see that barb that flew from LA to Phoenix AZ and showed up at a Cardi/Dua Lipa stans house all over Stan beef, trespassed on the family’s property and got the cops called on him last night?

You better don't, sir!

This took a long time to put together, okay! Engage.

I know you have opinionSAHH!

Also, no! Got a link to that? 😆

[richyrich909]

Someone made a thread. Barbz are psychopaths. Also homeboy posting his house was also a choice, but far less maniacle lol.

Dude... whyyyyy?!

The cringe. I couldn't take much.

I was like, "oh okay. This twink-y kid is doing his thing."

It got worse! Why was (redacted) unable to breathe (we know) and reading a script off to the side? And very poorly.

Is THIS what Twitter/X is?!
