Perhaps I don't have morals, I still have taste.. And I praise her for not caring about the SJW and just singing what she likes. Don't get me wrong, I don't support R Kelly or his actions, but I'll still listen to his songs if I want to and if I like them and so should she if she want to. supporting a rapist, how classy of you.

StuckInMyMind 5,930 Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Probably not the wisest move however, I’m sure her intentions weren’t to piss anyone off. She likes a song and sang along to it, who cares? If Gaga killed a puppy would you stop listening to her music? No I know it’s not a comparison, just trying to make a point before yall biyatches come for me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol this is exactly what I mean and exactly what I'm angry about, liking a song of someone doens't mean you like them. You should not forbid yourself to listening to a song, just for the sake of the artist. And yes, I would love to see R. Kelly in jail, but let me pls listen to DWUW ft. R. Kelly, thanks. This culture in 2018, it's really scary.. everything is instantly an insult or wrong and everyone is so sensitive. We need DarkGa with Bops so we can rule the industry again and learn the other popgirls how to snatch 'em wigs to ultimate baldness!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you not feel horrible while listening to his music knowing that he’s singing about his own sex life with underage girls? Listening to his music only shows him that what he’s doing is acceptable but if you’re ok with all of that then that’s on you. Tbh while I haven't been listening to his music, or DWUW, music isn't always about politics and social justice. There are so so SO many other songs, popular songs, with questionable topics, sung by questionable artists. By continuing to cancel every problematic thing we can find, we're sort of backtracking on progress, and opening the censorship can of worms. Like, sorry, but Ignition is a great song. And I have memories of being in middle school and going to dances and singing this with my friends. And you honestly don't know who he's singing about, it could have been his wife. DWUW is a great song as well, and literally has zero reference or relation to pedophilia or rape. Yeah, her timing was ****. But not everything tied to him has to be about supporting God awful, twisted things. We keep setting parameters for ourselves, and boxing each other into these accountability pens, and we're really not progressing. It's about how YOU live your life and the choices you make, not about getting our rocks off on feeling better because we aren't streaming R. Kelly anymore. Like...really? It's his choice if he wants to continue to listen, and tbh it doesn't make him a bad person. It's the same argument as people dragging Gaga for a scandal she had zero relation to, and forcing her to apologize for working with him five years ago. This isn't about the person streaming a song, or Lady Gaga, or any other person who had relation to him. It's about R. Kelly and what he did. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This culture in 2018, it's really scary.. everything is instantly an insult or wrong and everyone is so sensitive. It's not about being sensetive. It's about your values and morals. By listening to R Kelly (for instance), you're giving money to someone who did a multitude of disgusting and illegal things. You may like his music, but by listening to it, you're basically letting him have a proseperous and sucessful life. You're supporting him, but because you're having a good tine doing it, you think it's fine. Also consider the fact that his money and power are the reason why he can do what he does. He's a rich, famous man with a huge ego, and that's why he hasn't gone to jail. That's why he does what he does. Partly, of course. And if you think that you're just one person or that your stream doesn't matter, think about the fact that you aren't the only one with that mentality. The majority of people who listen to him, at this point, probably think their engagement in his music isn't significant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the funny thing is that I've never listened to a song from him except DWUW (which I really like but I can't even stream that one anymore), I don't even know other songs from him, but my point was that I understand why someone would still listen to his music even after what he's done. So it's not me who's supporting him, outside DWUW I never stream him, but I can't stream DWUW right now, so I'm not giving him money or supporting him. But I understand if people do. Tbh, if Gaga would do the most impossible thing on earth, I would still listen to her songs... no shame. Even if she did the worst thing imaginable, I would still listen to her songs. Those songs are attached to me and are a part of me, no-one can take that away. Perhaps some people feel the same about the music from R. Kelly, I understand them fully why they would still listen to his music.

monketsharona 89,877 Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Is she stupid or... ?? the way she says 'Ignition... R. Kelly' just feels provocative. Just my opinion Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would upload a video on IG singing to R. Kelly's verse on DWUW.. you know why?? Cuz I love the song I'm not like: September 18: "Omg, I love this song soooo much" January 19: "Uwghhh, I hate this song... uwghh R. Kelly" My taste doesn't change based on what someone has done, music is a form of art and I really don't care what the artist has done. I enjoy the music and the form of art, Gaga is a different situation because she also inspires me in life, but idc what other artists do.. as long as they make good bops. That's why I can also listen to Azaelia Banks. I understand What you are trying to say but the thing is, you are not a public figure (if so I’m sorry) Any way she has a lot of fans, many younger female fans, so this can come off really ignorant. Like she doesn’t support the victims. I’m not saying that celebs have to be perfect and always be a role model, but she could’ve easily avoided this. Why would you risk the controversy just so you can post a Instagram story of you singing along What you want Lady Gaga🥂 What you want with Christina🥂 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Girl ive been listening to all his greatest hits lately, doesn't mean anything. Besides, it's people's business, stop trying to control what people can or cannot listen/watch But she is stupid for posting that right now after the docu, she shouldve kept it to herself so it's obvious she did it for the attention why else would she do that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oriane 22,357 Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 You can still like an artist's work, no matter who they are or what they did in real life. I am a cinema lover myself and I can still like movies by Roman Polanski and Bryan Singer. And even though I'm usually not a fan of Hitchcock and Kubrick's work, deciding not to give their movies a chance just because of the type of men they were would mean missing a whole part of the history of cinema, and the impact these movies have had on many others.
