kidfresh832 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I really like the visuals and colors. Bey looks really good here, very creative how they used her in video. I listen to this album all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeJoe Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Nope. I don't see this song going anywhere. Looks like Beyonce didn't even interact with the group. I'm guessing she filmed her part somewhere else and they pieced it all together 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquaria Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Is this going to cause a cultural appropriation uproar? But Beyoncé looks STUNNING in that big flower crown getup with the dark lips and bushy eyebrows yes LÁWD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Beyoncé looks STUNNING in that big flower crown getup with the dark lips and bushy eyebrows yes LÁWD.It already did on Twitter . I mean the 4 white guys were playing Holi and no one said anything to them but let the Black girl don some henna (which has roots in many countries) and a traditional Indian dress (even though she's worn similar before and has praised Indian culture since 2003) and all hell breaks loose. Plus they actually filmed in it India and had actual Indian people in it. The video showcased the beauty of India and I have no problem with it (since that's my culture too). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It did kind of seem like the culture was used as an accessory/costume... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquaria Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Ok I'm officially obsessed with this song, but only because of Beyoncé and Beyoncé in the video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bu. Posted February 3, 2016 Author Share Posted February 3, 2016 (edited) What's Holi? It did kind of seem like the culture was used as an accessory/costume... Holi is a Hindu religious festivalReally? I don't think it is. I'm not offended anyway. I'm happy my culture was chosen and portrayed so beautifully tbh. It's a change from the "all brown people are terrorists" tripe that has dumbed people down in the last 15 years.Ok I'm officially obsessed with this song, but only because of Beyoncé and Beyoncé in the video. The video is gorgeous Edited February 3, 2016 by Dammn Bu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
