Bebe Rexha: I Was Told I Couldn't Sing Hip Hop Cause I'm a White Girl

[codymonster 8,595]

She's a talented girl. People are overlooking her because she's a white, pretty girl. But she's written a handful of hit songs for big artists, and can sing better than most of them.

Watch out for her guys, she's legit got mad talent.

what does this comment have ANYTHINGGGGG to do with people discriminating against Bebe for her race in the genre of music she feels comfortable in?

nothing.

we are discussing the discrimination against bebe right now. 

Don't make it about something that it's not.

 

We DOOO care about the oppression of the black community, however we can also acknowledge the issue at hand.

She does have talent. I actually find her very frustrating because she never fully utilizes or executes the talent she has...

So because we are talking about a white girls problems, we don't care about black people..?  Talk like that is why there is so much fighting to do with race; we don't have to compare everything to race. Just because someone has some issues, doesn't mean they are discredited because someone else has worse ones. We all have struggles and we all have to pay attention to and be sympathetic towards ALL PEOPLE

Completely agree! You hear her acoustic stuff and she kills it, and then she comes out with basic auto tuned songs like "I Got You" and I'm like "Why Bebeeeeee"

She could be a very interesting hip-pop artist, but her work doesn't push any boundaries, shows limited creativity, and not much depth. She doesn't put enough of who she is into the work. I wish she'd change and was hoping Part II would push the envelope a bit more...but doesn't seem like it. Looks like it'll end up being a retread of Part I that had some potential (Atmosphere, Small Doses) wedged into bland cuts like FFF and Bad Bitch...
