They had the NERVE to comment on Trey Songz too
Tracks like Freek’n You, while still “subtle” .. cracked open that Pandora’s Box of the lyrics getting more blunt.
The IRONYAnother thread about this shytevery few months there's a thread debating this topic regarding the word...y'all weirdly obsessed with this shyt.
I don't think a lot of folks could make it through the day without some reason to use it
Why the need to curse on this record??

Trash in, trash out
The mentality of the people will dictate the trajectory of our culture in all mediums
When we do better, R&B / hip hop will do better
far as the subject of cussin goes, i'm not a tenderdikk about it as much as some people, I think it can be very effective in the right situations.
However I hate excessive use of cuss words where they literally say some variation of "fuk" or "shyt" every 3-5 words. Makes you look like an unintelligent try hard.
Got some younger gen-z, late millennial women in my family, and their personalities are exhaustively toxic. They are completely enamored of shallow, Twitter echo chamber psycho-babble and this City Girls , pan-sexual hoe is life thot persona. They drink more than fish, cuss more than a sailor, and smoke more than a chimney and are completely not self-aware of their own obnoxiousness. They have no respect for our elders either. Completely uncouth women.
The late teen early 20's young buls in fam love being in some reckless, me against the world, talk shyt and drop the addy and slide shyt, and my eldest sibling house got shot up behind that shyt. These gen z MF love taunting the wolves and courting death on a regular basis, like they think its a respawn in this bytch.
this is not some "vocal minority", this is an increasingly pervasive attitude among us black youth,
the lines have been blurred when it comes to the question of art and life. Which is imitating the other?

I'm back sukkasssss
I agree. I too am tired of the excessive profanity. I also don't understand how you can refer to your previous/current love interests as hoes, bytches, niccas, etc. It's not romantic at all. It's why I don't listen to much rap anymore.
How much of this currently is to be blamed on the Black female consumer and Black female creators?
Black female artist and female artist in general are getting increasingly more vulgar and explicit in R and B. And In Rap with misandric/Anti-male content.
I guess it gets justified as "turning the tables" or "we can do it too", "doing away with respectability" or "having sexual agency" but to me it is less sexy or artful than the music that came back in the day.
They went TOO far and they know it. On social media some are women are commented on how it is getting out of hand but they low-key created the current crisis in R & B through demand.

It's getting so bad I am reaching for a podcast where I would have reached for music streaming.

So Feenin’ and Freek’N You are in the same realm of Forever My Lady and Stay?Complete crock of bullshyt
Y’all arguing how vulgarity has always been apart of music but users that can read know this is about the bluntness of the lyrics.
It has been increasingly vulgar though over time and there is a definite spectrum. The 80 to 90s pushing the envelope is not as extreme as the current situation.
