i didn't have anything in mind, it's just a gesture!

but snoball is right

thought it was a ref to classic nabisco post about cocorosie

ii can vaguely remember what you're talking about?

i just spent like 10 minutes looking for it and cant find it... it was something to the effect of like "i wouldnt call cocorosie racist, id take the tactic of the psychiatrist *steeples fingers* hmm, cocorosie, you are very interested in black people, arent you"

ha yes. i looked, myself.

Actually to be completely honest I imagine a whole lot of acts have weird mental relationships with blackness / black people that are totally outside the scope of the music, so maybe it's better that Cocorosie at least kinda engage with theirs and occasionally score points for stuff like "sound good with beatboxer." Their issues here are hard to pin down, but I doubt they're more complicated than like "mild fetishization" and possibly a touch of "entranced by stereotypes."

― tornup_andhurt, Wednesday, March 28, 2007 4:51 PM (5 years ago) Bookmark Flag Post Permalink

Haha I think the only adequate approach to take here is that of Cocorosie's psychologist, who would say that while it's not prohibited for white singers to say "nigger," it is (shall we say) "very very interesting" that one would choose to put it in the song, then have to sing it to groups of people every third night for the next few years, then trade your drum loops for beatboxing from your black backing band (haha then get quoted in infamous "Kill Whitey" article), all leading up to a general chin-scratching steeple-fingered "very interesting, Cocorosie, you are very interested in black people."
