I am going to disagree with you on this. I love the song and that picture is of a man on the left holding the hand of a woman on the right.The bodies are shaped differently, the body on the right has muscles...masculine looking and the arm on the right is more slender, the hand appears smaller and more feminine, look at the wrist. All only IMO of course.[attachment=0:ijmsdxht]HMH.jpg[/attachment:ijmsdxht]
Ok SD, that's very valid. But what about the other points? Hand holding, male-male duet about hand holding and the innuendo it triggers, the track itself compared to other snippets we've heard recently and in the past, Sony's decision to put out this one first... you get the idea.Also nyonyo, I am NOT insinuating that the lyrics are meant to be homosexual.... I'm pointing out that it's so easy to be twisted that way, perhaps way too easy considering what's at stake for Sony, why select this track?
Thursday, April 19, 2007Akon goes a'rapin! Akon totally grinded the crap out of the girl (who is rumoured to be 14) in the photo above. And by "grinded the crap out of" i mean practically R'd her with his clothes on. Take a look:Apparently this went down in Trinidad, where Akon told the audience that he was having a dance-off contest and that they could win a trip to Africa. By "trip to Africa", Akon obviously meant he'd put his African wang all up in them, because that's all this "winner" got. There was no contest, there was no trip to Africa, Akon just wanted to get his grind on. Dang, Akon - I hope you at least bought that poor girl a pizza when you were finished tossing her around like a raped rag doll.Source via DlistedPosted by Amber at 7:55 AM Labels: Akon, dance-offs, girl #1, going a'rapin, lies 8 comments: Anne said...

I just did a feature over on Highbrid Nation with video on how the guy basically molests women on stage at his concerts while his cheesy music plays in the background. I can't stand him. I don't even understand his popularity right now. April 19, 2007 11:36:00 AM EST candini said... the video is gone now and i can't see it. boo. April 19, 2007 4:42:00 PM EST Anonymous said... Ew, I hate Akon. All he does is sing about sex, he's not creative at all. And was he even BORN in Africa? Jeeeeeeeeeeez.And even though I hate Akon, (he's soooooooo ugly too) it really was that girl's fault. Sure, he shouldn't have been doing that to those girls, but those girls should have known from his music that he's a total perv. Also, that girl's dad shouldn't be mad at Akon, he should be pissed at his daughter for wearing THAT OUTFIT and going into a club. Obviously something bad was going to happen to her if she was wearing that and going to an Akon concert in a club. Seriously.

Snoopy I was starting to think I was alone in this. I'm glad you noticed too. It was also an immediate connection I made, and I have never thought of MJ as gay! Not that I would care, I've just never gotten a vibe in that direction to have a preconceived notion from. But the gay audience is minute, really super tiny. Considering gays make up ~10% of the population, and certainly not all gay people like the same music, so we're talking a small cross section of 10% of the population? I don't think market targeting makes much sense here either, but it's an interesting thought.
I think our narrow mindedness makes us think of homosexual overtones. Music is not all about sex, at least Michael's music isn't. Michael mostly spoke about healing the world, and to me this song is just about that.
