I am a huge fan of Basquiat and I've read many books about him. Never once did I get the impression he was anticapitalist. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgy 6,918 Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 a little rant here, but what i don't understand is why y'all stay mute when a white celebrity does a luxury partnership (ahem, gaga and tudor watches), but pop off with essays and dissertations about capitalism when it's a black celebrity. don't get me wrong, i'm not trying to bootlick in any way and i'm very much eat the rich as the next person, but i'd ask you to reexamine your feelings of why you feel threatened seeing black people occupy a space that is predominately occupied by white people in the first place and what that says about what "place" you think black people belong in.

Joaco95 1,631 Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 i get the diamond thing BUT they are not the owners of the painting and Tiffany's Co. already stated that the painting will be exposed in their store + the painting was already shown in some magazine photoshoot Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LilMonst3r 5,545 Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Tbh i thought they would be more mad at how horrible the shoot was. Beyonce has had better looks, I really dont know much of the history of the diamond so I cant speak on that yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you mean? If anything gaga gets dragged for her partnerships/ads a hell of a lot more than any other artist. Not everything has to be racist lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
