I see some people hating on the subject matter, but isnt it an artist responsibility to depict different aspects of society and culture. Even though shes speaking about materialism, she did it with class and style. Its a real part of the game. Shes not advocating the lifestyle, shes framing the state of mind that some of the women in the industry have. Beat is banging.... What more could you ask for?

The fact that she can relate because she was told this same things about making it in the industry. She felt in the beginning of her career that she too had to sell herself not just off talent but her looks.

    This song is so sad and true at the same time. Props to Jazmine for writing from anothers perspective. This is how girls are raised instead of being taught to work hard and get something for themselves. They think why should I work when I can just get a man to give it to me? What happens when they get old? what are they gonna fall back on? oh thats right the DIAMONDS the accumulated.

      You know what, she may be underrated, but God has blessed her with the ability to get her music and artistry across without her having to sell her soul to the industry and with that, people who do, loose their integrity and their spirit for their artistry. She's good where she is and she'll realize it one day, as I recalls when she said several years ago she was getting out of the industry. She never said why, but it was because the industry is a dark place and in particularly when it comes to real artist like her...a woman who is not about oversexualizing herself just to get video and radio play. The only one's who get that type of fame is those who sold their souls for it....and i'm inclined to believe that Jazmine has not and will not do that.

And for those of you who think that's she condones having fake ass, tits, slutty clothes, tons of make up, and 30 inch Brazilian weave SHE IS NOT. She is exposing those women who feel like it's ok to use their looks to get men to pay for their lavish lifestyles instead of working hard for what they want. The song is created to sound like these women talking about what they do to be "kept". Listen to it!!!

      Don't be foolish. Given the image that she projects (including the rest of the tracks on the album), do you not detect the sarcasm of the lyrics? When I first heard it, I cringed at the fact that many wouldn't interpret it properly without explanation. She's relying on young folks to think more critically and be able to recognize irony.
      Watch a few of the the interviews on here that she's done about the content of the album.

    • @jusjoshandthemic
      @jusjoshandthemic 9 лет назад +9

      "Don't be foolish" Who is that directed to? Last time I checked, having a different lens on a song/interpreting it differently than you (in your brain, the "correct" way) does not equal someone being foolish. Actually, no. I do not detect sarcasm from this. I don't think the song is as snobby/blindly judgemental as you are being. I think the song has more dignity than that. To me, the song is personification. She's jumping into the skin, head, heart, and experience of someone who has lived a life similar to this song. Not judging them but for the duration of the song, being them. Listen to Skin Head by Patricia Smith. A personification poem. This reminds me of that approach.

    I love this. It's obviously a critique of this logic, of justifying your own objectification and criticizing people who don't "hustle" for material things. BUT at the same time, the subdued nature of the instrumental and of her vocals makes me feel it can also be a recognition of the labor that goes into maintaining one's feeling of self-worth and living up to expectations... Almost like dirge lamenting the broke chick's subjugation to this lifestyle.

    I love music that inspires thought! Part of me wants to feel superior to the woman in the song, but another part of me can't deny that she sounds like she's enjoying a pretty lush life. I mean I can't deny that flying in a G5 sounds pretty amazing.
    It's a different type of hustle for sure, but this woman is very aware of the nature of the game, while acknowledging the frail nature of her arrangement, since as she says "it's new chicks popping up everyday" wanting to take her place.
    This piece is true brilliance...

    What makes this song even funnier to me is, Jazmine sang about these girls life better than they did. Remember when every video chick, urban model, reality show girl was dropping songs bragging about this. A real singer/artist captured their frame of mind better than they did, and put a message behind it. I hope this song does reach it's intended target, to open their eyes. Especially about their way of thinking.

As women our values and self value are going down everyday I mean what I hear is a woman whose career is who to impress so she can get by and she has convinced herself other women are jealous of the lifestyle she has acquired by looks. I feel the mascara symbolizes the tears because these materialistic things do not make her genuinely happy she is clearly unhappy but has to maintain her appearance because she's been groomed by society to think thats what matters most, GO HEAD MISS JAZMINE!
