As a strong black woman, I'm kind of pissed that we lost all those talented female lyricists and R&B singers who got Thanos snapped out of existence in the late 90s because they didn't want to sell sex. It makes me want to slap a bitch for calling it "empowerment"...

At least my inner black woman is angry af because of that.

The music industry is garbage, pure garbage. Sony and Universal execs have a special place in hell.

Yes, the music industry is predatory as shit. Most of the "stars", unless they negotiate their contracts the right way and become actual legends, end up in debt or suicided.
