India Arie is getting dragged for her critique of Megan Thee Stallion and Janelle Monae.
India took to Instagram to give her two cents, ranting, “The issue is what is CONTEXT. Humanity does EVERYTHING. But does EVERYTHING BELONG IN A STAGE. No. Is everything for KIDS? No. Is everything for EVERY BODY? NO. So when we as a culture make something like this mainstream, it shows a lack of discretion and discernment. To those in the comments who laugh at anyone who wants these things for our culture, you certainly have that right. Just as many folks have the right to want our MAINSTREAM international export — our music — to show us in a respectful light. I’d like to go on the record as saying: this won’t age well and that is my issue. I LOVE Janelle and Meg all the way, I love us all — and I don’t like this moment. Don’t bother debating me, lol, I don’t care and I DO this. For 25 years I’ve done THIS. Read [and] ponder or don’t.”
