My local radio station (owned by Bauer media) is driving the bloody song, we turn the radio off every time.
I went through a reaction video to hear it, I didn't even finish watching it, she was a bit too gushy for my liking, The Honest Vocal Coach.Twice this week i’ve been subjected to Boyz on radio 1. The line “makes me feel like a baddie” makes me die inside. I’m the same age as Jesy.
No, this line takes the biscuit for meTwice this week i’ve been subjected to Boyz on radio 1. The line “makes me feel like a baddie” makes me die inside. I’m the same age as Jesy.
The ultimate karma which will eat her upI'll be interested to see how Jesy's aesthetic changes as the PR machine churns. They're very much working on a victim narrative for her, and she's been savvy enough in the past to ensure she looks white for that narrative.
Blackfish when there's something to sell, but always have a vulnerable white girl victim for the reaction. They even lucked out and had a black woman to be the aggressor towards Leigh Anne, bloody hell.
Once the PR is washed away and they've run out of "feuds" to keep her in the press, I can't see Jesy making it last. Without being able to lean on Little Mix, either as part of them or using arguments with them for headlines, I just can't see her holding public attention. Kind of entertaining, that. She left the group to ensure she was the centre of attention, but can't hold that attention without using them.
I could've sworn she put up a post yesterday (I think it was a clip from the music vid?) where she/her team finally acknowledged it in the caption. It seems to be deleted now.So Jesy has posted on IG stories she's no.2 in the Big Top 40 but nothing about the official charts She's trying to make it look like she's done better than she actually has. I don't think she's happy at all with her chart position.
I genuinely can’t make out 80% of what is being “sung” on this track? Just me?
Ariana Grande has definitely had her share of criticism for black fishing or attempting to look racially amibigious. At times her skin has been a bit too deep, and there have been some discussions on how she treats black culture particularly with 7 Rings (she was accused of stealing another black rapper’s flow, but I’m not sure how valid those claims are anyway).
Something Zach Campbell said in the video where he discussed Jesy I agreed with - if you’re talented enough, people will let it slide. Ariana Grande is a fantastic singer. Miley Cyrus, too, is a fantastic singer. With people who aren’t as undeniably talented (in my opinion), you’re less likely to forgive, because what are they offering? What is Rita Ora offering? What is Jesy offering? That doesn’t just apply to blackfishing and singers, it applies to just about any talented person and whatever wrong to awful thing they do. Just one example - Chris Brown. But I could really go on. Ariana Grande was called out for it, and rightly so. She’s more talented so the public can move past it quicker. Jesy simply is not.
(For the record, I’ve always thought that Ariana was trying to look more southern Italian - she is partially, and southern Italians can tan deeply, but Ariana Grande isn’t one of them! She’s since toned down the tan, as she should.)
It's hilariously pathetic that she's branded herself as the UK BaddieI put on a random playlist on Spotify this morning and Bad Boyz was on it. It instantly makes me cringe with the start “UK Baddie”. I thought that was only on the video for some reason. How did she listen to that and think it sounds good. Pathetic for her age.
