Just that really, I'm undecided. I think it depends on what mood I'm in.
On one hand she's only using language that male rappers have been using for decades and it is liberating that a woman can express herself in an obviously sexual way and why not?
On the other some of the lyrics are absolutely mad
'swipe your nose like a credit card'
'touch that little dangly thing that swings at the back on my throat' 😂

What do you think?

Why do we want to compare ourselves or act like men?? I think it's vulgar coming from a male or female. Plus it sounds shit

It’s disgusting

I'm kind of gutted that all the kids in year 8 including my dd are doing the wap dance at break time!

Didn't they do this 'behaving like male slags is girl power' shit in the nineties. Boring.

It would be refreshing to see a woman not singing about men and keeping their clothes on for a change.

I think it's really crass tbh but I'm not offended by it, just don't see the point in it.

What I thought was hilarious was when she said that Kylie Jenner was in the video because "it's important to show that you don't need to be talented to have money and be successful" lol... ouch 😂 that's not verbatim but it was along those lines. Really made me laugh.

Why did you resurrect this thread with such an empty comment? For what purpose?
