OK ok, I listened to WAP and of course @benshapiro is completely correct about it, and also, if that is your idea of sexy you need to listen to something with an ounce of actual, human sexuality instead of something that sounds like it was written by an AI sex robot.
Brings to mind this excellent line from Camille Paglia: “Bare flesh is suffering serious overexposure. Wholesale blurring of the line between private & public is ultimately antithetical to eroticism. When everything is seen and known, there is no titillating taboo to transgress.”
Congrats to Cardi B, WAP, and modern culture for making what once launched a thousand ships completely boring.
Also, LOL at the people who think it’s fine to get people fired for slightly heretical opinions but cry about mild criticism of a song.
