To consider these lyrics borderline racist?

[CherryPeakerr]

I follow a YouTuber who makes lots of music videos. She has a song about leonardo dicaprio and says -

He can whip me every night like Django...

Racist? Or just ignorant?

No doubt you will report me for that but it was worth the deletion.

Not my circus. You're obviously a bit NQR.

So she's a white woman dressed as a black slave? Can't see how that is much different to blackface.

@FlossyMooToo "beat me on the bottom with a woman's weekly" is one of my all time favourite lines EVER.

Sorry OP as you were!

She's absolutely fascinating to watch to be honest. She recently called out a wrestler for being a fuckboy to her and cancelling their date and then the whole WWE fan base went crazy.

Or you could just look up jazz guitarist Django Rheinhart.......

Yeah, it is racist. Particularly if she's dressed up as a slave.

I'm guessing Madonna had a black Jesus inheritance video as most people believe Jesus was black or middle eastern. Not quite sure what it's got to do with this though.

I'm pretty sure most people would think that the use of the word 'ho' by anyone of any race is sexist.

Oh, and telling people to 'fuck off' and 'go cry to Mumsnet HQ' is a bit much really. Try and remember that there are real people behind these posts and talk to them as you would do face to face. If you would talk to people like that face to face then maybe find some help to deal with the negative emotions which lead to these angry feelings.

Yes its racist OP

Yeah, that is really not ok. A lot of music pushes the envelope, but that is horrible.

Trisha Paytas is a fucking abomination! There's rumours flying about that she might be doing CBB...

I can't believe so many earlier posts thought it wasn't
Clearly a lack of critical thinking.

Stop following her perhaps? She sounds plain weird.

Oh wow, yes of course it's racist!

I assume you're stirring the pot, Flossy, but I'm going to respond anyway. Why on earth would the Victoria Wood comparison be relevant? Slavery was (and remains) representative of the systematic torture and oppression of a massive chunk of humanity. Hostess trolleys and trashy magazines have no such comparable associations, as far as I know.

You seriously can't see why reducing the whipping of slaves into a sexy fantasy is more offensive than a comedic sketch poking fun at mild 1980's middle-England kink?

PS, OP, Yabu. There's nothing 'borderline' about it.

Well thanks, guys. Now I've checked this person out on YouTube, you should see the shit that's on my Recommended list.

I'm confused, op. How long have you been following her? The uproar about this video and lyrics happened about 2 years ago. I have no idea why she is "famous" and I'm surprised that this particular video has offended you yet seemingly nothing else she's done has? She started her "career" as a professional troll and continues to be controversial with pretty much everything she says and does. Why are you following her and giving her views?

Also, what is a fuckboy? I'm still fairly young but I've never heard that.
