Good Morning.

“You can’t spend two decades referring to other men’s daughters as bitches and hoes, and then somehow decide that your own daughter is going to be exempt from the game. You, my brother, have given nearly every inch of your creative productivity toward murdering your daughter’s self and public image before she was even born. In other words, you brought Blue Ivy Carter into a world where most of your biggest fans will look at her and refer to her not as daddy’s little princess, but instead as a dirty little bitch. In fact, they will even get paid for it.”

- Dr. Boyce Watkins regarding Jay-Z’s decision to stop using the word “bitch” after the birth of his daughter.

[EDIT: Jay-Z never said it. It was merely attributed to him.

And the more's the pity. The former would have at least been an entrée into making amends.

But no. Business as usual.]

I wish I could say something that would add to this, but seriously how is that going to make a difference. Jay-Z made a name for himself talking and acting like he did. Now since what he has done and was doing could impact him, its different. People are stupid...and it burns...

That they are, and that it Does. :\

What astonishes me, given his attitudes towards women, is that one ever agreed to breed with him. And Beyonce, no less, who is pretty fucking righteous.

I know, right? I was pretty sure she had her shit together, but...
