MEM 3,112 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 The iconic last minute of the DWUW performance at the AMAs though, if only locals understood... RIP Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Notthebling 1,898 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 I am shocked that she went THIS HARD. We all knew she went through rough stuff, but I’m starting to wonder how dark is was during BTW to ARTPOP... like it almost sounds like the raping occured during those days. It breaks my heart, and it makes me so sad that we still to this day don’t know much about what happened. I knew DWUW came from a dark place but never fully understood how much of a psychological defense it was for her to release the song. It hurts me to know she was at the time releasing while being in a bad state of mind. oh gaga i wish i could hug you Dat - doo - deet - doe. Dat - doo - deet - doe, dat - doo - deet - doe. Baby let's get high, John Wayne Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quartz 12,396 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Am I the only one shook that we won't have the official copy of the original song available to us soon?! I admire her and all that but THE R KELLY VERSION WILL DISAPPEAR FROM THE FACE OF THE EARTH. It's my favorite version of the song I am freaking out. It's such a masterpiece. The commentary of three artists working on a project (Terry included) who are publicly crucified for their controversies. It's the ultimate FU. Now it's gone. Again, I'm glad with her statement. It's the removal of her art that I'm freaking out about. Inside, we are really made the same. 🕊 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I am hearing about the allegations against R Kelly is absolutely horrifying and indefensible. Asa victim of sexual assault myself, I made both the song and video at a dark time in my life, my intention was to create something extremely defiant and provocative because I was angry and still hadn't processed the trauma that had occurred in my own life. The song is called "Do What U Want (With My Body)", I think it's clear how explicitly twisted my thinking was at the time. If I could go back and have a talk with my younger self I'd tell her to go through the therapy I have since then, so that I could understand the confused post-traumatic state that I was in- or if therapy was not available to me or anyone in my situation-to seek help, and speak as openly and honestly as possible about what we've been through. I can't go back, but I can go forward and continue to support women, men, and people of all sexual identities, and of all races, who are victims of sexual assault. I have demonstrated my stance on this issue and others many times throughout my career. I share this not to make excuses for myself, but to explain. Til it happens to you, you don't know how it feels. But I do know how I feel now. I intend to remove this song off of iTunes and other streaming platforms and will not be working with him again. I'm sorry, both for my poor judgment when I was young, and for not speaking out sooner. I love you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Thomason 963 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 I always thought R Kelly's verse instilled the wrong message for the song. Although the song was called Do What U Want (with my body) it was implied to be sexual but actually meant something else entirely. If you listen to the solo version/ xtina version, the song just doesn't seem sexually charged anymore to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taide 5,789 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Not her removing the best song in ARTPOP. And not her commenting about this situation just because people preassured her to. **** I hate this age we're living, blaming women on everything that men do wrong.
