NME on Cardi B's 'WAP': It's feminism in that's two women singing about whatever they want to
Share
NME published an interesting (and funny) text about expectations and freedom, inspired by Russell Brand's video on Cardi B's 'WAP' where he suggests "that Cardi and Megan aren’t feminist because they’re trying to emulate a masculine trope of being brash about sex and sexuality, rather than carving out their own". But - "why does it even have to be feminist? It is, by the way, in that it’s two women singing about whatever the fuck they want to, and not hurting anyone" NME writer says, adding "maybe Cardi B just thought about writing about sexual desire, having great sex and being turned on and made – let’s face it – an absolute banger. Part of equality is not always having to fight the cause. Remember: you can just enjoy things".
