18516, good question
Posted by AminaMoonBeam, Wed Jan-31-01 09:38 AM
beacuse I look at this video and say damn... these sistahs got some beautiful bone structure, posture etc but when I see a video like Dnager, for example, Im like damn this sistah is exploiting herself....
the first explanation I can think of is the packaging, the artist, things like that...
the sistahs in Bilals video arent portaying strippers or shaking they ass or northing for the most part but if you look at it I think the same delima exists
I mean shit I shake my ass all the time to be perfectly honest with you... Im a dancer and most times Im rockin something thats tight and premotes flexability... so I wonder why I can admire the sistah in one vidoe who isnt half but Completely naked and at the same time condemn the others in simular situations...
I guess lyrical content would have to be considered as well... interesting though because we know not of teh conditions situations and positions that these women are in so we cant really gain understanding of motive... maybe some of them just auditioned for the wrong video

but still a good question
