back in 89,
madonna had everyone losing their minds with the “like a prayer” video.
she was burning crosses,
kissing a black saint in a church,
and talking about giving head to Jesus in the song.
she was nearly cancelled for that video.
it was so bad,
she had the pope trying to send his goons for her.
madonna has made an iconic career off being controversial.
it has worked for her up until now:
i don’t know what this is.
many pop stars try to be as controversial as madonna.
madonna was/is an unapologetic bitch.
they all want to push the envelope but pull back when it gets too hot.
it seems lil nas x is trying to be the madonna of gen z.
he surely doesn’t give a damn.
in his newest video,
he is taking on the role as Jesus in “J Christ“…
i can hear the emails being drafted,
think pieces being constructed,
and the chants with the pitchforks.
the song is cute.
is it a grower?
if i could heat it again or not.
i thought the video was better than the song.
i tend to like rebellious shit especially when it comes to church.
ya’ll already know i love God but i can’t deal with his “people”.
some church folks can be a bunch of contradicting morons.
they all want to have a moral compass when it suits them,
especially these randoms who would explode walking in a church.
i peeped kai cenat going off on lil nas x with his moral compass.
hmm.
Did they ever come to a conclusion about that alleged rape case in Kai’s house with his friend back in 2023?
you know,
the one where kai was protecting his friend from the alleged victim.
i wanna know if she got a settlement or if that pineapple is in jail yet.
( x see that in a past entry here )
anyhoo…
when it comes to lil nas x,
i’m not shocked at his era antics.
at this point,
his whole career of causing controversy as the 80s queen before him.
he might just be the madonna of his generation in that aspect.
lowkey: i’m awaiting his witty comebacks to those who got something to say/font.
He doesn’t up the ante
This is the same concept as the video with the Devil one of the dancers even had on the devil shoes from a Couple years ago
There’s no artistic growth it could easily be a cardi b song and she had the same issue
They use the same formula that a lot of people use nowadays:
Tease controversy to trend and spend the week arguing wit critics
Then drop a video with celebrity cameos to go top 10
We’re in the age of viral. There’s no double entendres just blatant shock value
I’m sorry, but Lil Nas X is no Madonna. You can say what you want but at the end of the day, Madonna had the certified hits to back up her shenanigans. Not to go off on a Madonna rant, but I do believe in giving credit where credit is due; Madonna has 12 # 1 hits on Billboard and she did at a time when her competition was Micheal Jackson, Prince, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, and Janet Jackson, and to even go further these artists achieved their #1’s by and large with only them on the tracks they didn’t have a whole bunch of features, no disrespect to Drake or Rhianna I love them but I’m just keeping it real.
Lil Nas X just doesn’t have the hits behind him to back up his antics. I said years ago that I thought Lil Nas X was attractive, with a nice body and some potential under his belt but that coming out was going to hamper him in more ways than one. Instead of leading with his talent, he decided to lead with his sexuality and honestly, the community has been propping him up as some sort of inclusive diversity project. There is pent-up aggression and animosity towards heterosexuals, the church, hypocrisy, etc. and I get it but all of this constant trolling is just not it.
I will certainly agree that Madonna did garner hits and kept up with legendary competition. Her antics against the church were stank and still are stank.
Nas X is irritating, tiresome and redundant, in my opinion. All of his trolling tricks are out the bag. He is going to make the Lord really angry, if he keeps on playing.
It would be interesting to see the reaction of the gay goons if a straight rapper had a video with crosses and wax replicas of prominent gay figures being nailed alive. Or burned alive in ovens or ushered inside of showers to be gassed and exterminated?
Madonna has no class and never had any. She is a dusty scrub from Michigan. Surrounding yourself with stylists and iconic fashion pieces are accoutrements of wealth, but not breeding. Or good manners.
Nas is dusty, and needy. Successful thus far????! Negro rich, yes! Disrespectful, hell yes. Just go spend the money, suck a few dicks and go away.
Attention whore personified.
I can’t!!! Just sad
