lol that people are surprised music videos inspire masturbation, the reddit is funny though

re that article, I can appreciate sex-positive feminist ideas but I don't see how you can isolate the feminist intention in a video from the sexist reception of it

there's been these terrible ads for protein water in Denmark over the summer, and the video reminded me of them

The last setup involves Nicki giving Drake a lap dance and walking away after presumably giving him a boner, making this Drake’s second most embarrassing public erection after Jimmy’s classroom boner in Degrassi. Drake, of all people — stripper-fetishizing emo prince Drake — is the sexual object in “Anaconda.” And with that final inversion, Nicki more or less flips the whole twerking issue onto its stomach, where it can continue to hump the ground forever.

i don't understand this at all how is sweatpants boner drake the sexual object in this video?

you'd be surprised how many women can make an object out of "if jay-z and elliott gould had a baby"

idgi either. nicki is clearly the object of drake's desire. her desire isn't even hinted it. on that score, the only inversion i see is that she retains control, commands desire without being bound by it. but yeah, maybe we're meant to understand that he's the object simply because he's hot?

Leaving the dude w an unfulfilled boner is how every lap dance ends

have you seen showgirls? some dudes achieve fulfillment

That was a great documentary

are you suggesting kyle maclachlan didn't do his own stunts

anybody got an irl example of a dude jizzing his pants during a lapdance for ums? while i don't doubt the likelihood of its existence, i got nothing for the truthers

Leaving the dude w an unfilled boner is how every lap dance ends

^ a lesson in how to remove 3 letters from a sentence and change its meaning entirely (aka: what i thought i read at first and was like wtf ew unfilled)

of all the songs to be playing during that video lmao

Drake, of all people — stripper-fetishizing emo prince Drake — is the sexual object in “Anaconda.”

is it only on ilx that drake is considered a goofy dipshit or what

is "stripper-fetishizing emo prince" really that different from goofy dipshit?

well no, i just don't know what work "of all people" is supposed to be doing

He does dp the blank-stare/chin-scratching strip-club-dude thing well.

He DPs all day.

"papiconda" jesus fuck

i think adam lambert's penis was nicknamed by his fanbase also, i wonder how many more there are

pole poll pls

the sole positive thing I can think of in connection with this song is the inevitable awards program moment when Mixalot does his thing live onstage

im more into the song now tbh, i could see a DJ using it properly

Yahhhh, dropped this at a queer party the other night and people went nuts.

^^^Shocking!

Lol yeah

From a gay male FB friend:

<i>Just watched Nicki Minaj's 'Anaconda' video. It's like a nuke dropped on the women's 'don't objectify me' movement. Nicky should just change her name to Dat Ass, as her transformation is now complete.<i/>

this did NOT blow up the crowd when played at afropunk; i saw several subgroups break out to TED talk it to death

lol at trying to picture that

i haven't seen people go nuts to anaconda, i feel like it's more a filler track in the build up to a song where the beat actually drops, good for building tension but not a release of its own

that is explicit

flies up to #2 on the hot 100 this week due to streaming - her highest charting hit ever

thank u teenage boys

they were streaming alright.

they're gonna feel pretty dumb when they learn how she flipped their gaze

i have come round to this as dj/mixshow tool (ie it sounded p fun when westwood gave it a v quick spin)

the breakdown got people pretty excited at the drake/lil wayne show in boston the other night

just drake just sit onstage with a boner while they play the end of the song?

hahhaha no this was before the BATTLE ROYALE occurred

papiconda vs weenus

papiconda vs. wheetus

Prolego dude so far the only ppl into this (vid anyway)'re teenage girls and gay men ("sample" limited to here/aatwitter, so just maybe not accurate)

they're gonna feel pretty dumb when they learn how she flipped their gaze

lol

a+

yeah i almost excelsiord that myself

you guys know that playing up to the male gaze and rejecting the male gaze are not mutually exclusive, right. the position of power that nicki does both those things from is the point. i for one love how she flips from "oh my god, look at her butt" to "stop looking at my ass" like they're both compatible! cuz she can and cuz they are.

you know that I get that you can make that argument in theory but that in practice a performer screaming "FUCK THE SKINNY BITCHES IN THE CLUB" over a cover song doesn't necessarily merit a vigorous debate of intention vs action, right?

and that arguing that nicki's objective is subverting power dynamics in a song where she is repeatedly stating that she's "on some dumb shit" is... well, maybe not disingenuous but at the least indicative of a very selective way of appreciating the work?

i mean bully to you for getting something positive out of tanaconda lex but this sounds DOA to me and it's primarily cause nicki's verses are not so good, the production is outstandingly lazy and the various young money tics throughout are maddening
it's not so much that you're wrong so much as why bother in support of something this pedestrian
