The Optics Of This Rihanna Vogue Cover

[WIA20XX]

Now this image here? A statue in Senegal supposedly celebrating African Family?

This is clearly offensive depiction of Black Man, Woman, and Child!!!

As historian said at the time...

“This woman [in the statue], she is completely subjugated to man. It’s the man making the decisions. It’s the man as protector, and that doesn’t fit with the African reality,” said historian Penda Mbow.

If you try to apply your own set of ethics and principles to Hollywood you'll forever be outraged and insulted. Don't expect a traditional photo in the mold of Malcolm, his wife and their family on the cover of Time when you open up a Vogue magazine.


Do your best to instill the values you consider to be important in your children and live a life reflecting those values daily.


Rhianna was just performing pregnant, 50 million feet in the air signing "Come here rude boy, is you big enough" and "All I see is dollar signs"...


...What do you expect a cover with her and ASAP to look like?

 

[Brandsdale]

they are rich.

who cares.

 

[Roid Jones]

Why don't you ask that black man why he went along with the picture?

 

[010101]

the fact is their family won*

 

[Gloxina]

That was my thing. No one said shyt about a whole as black billionaire family on the cover of Vouge. Just about how ASAP was not front and center. Which woulda been dumb considering the story is about her.

Cats really showing that they'd rather see the ship sink than let a woman make more money or get more shine than them. It's insecure and bytch made.

Leather vest and pants

Lenny kravitz look

 

[Xcenai]

what a cute lesbian couple

Its crazy how after Chris Brown and Rihanna had that altercation its like she cant lose ..... but as soon as Chris gets some momentum they sweep his leg.
Asap Rocky is a simp in my book

Its like when fat depressed bytches look at SI magazines and say those pictures harm fat ppl. You aren't the auidence. It wasn't made for tou consumption. If you want to see manly men being manly, don't seek covers of fashion magazines made by women and gay men for women and gay men.

If you don't understand the power of a image, then we can't go any further.. Don't even attempt to. And this is coming from someone who agrees with what you're saying.

 

[Warren Peace]

it’s her magazine issue.

part of being a man is knowing when to let your lady shine.

 

[Xyrax]

I swear men become more and more obsessed with this salon, neck rolling bullshyt as the days go by smh

shyt zesty as hell. nikkas obsessing over a Vogue cover...

Men are doing this.

 

[RennisDeynolds]

This looks like, “I'm carrying the family / leading the household”

They could of easy been side by side or both holding the baby & Rihanna looking up at the camera and Asap looking at the baby.

You think Rocky is leading any households . Man foh

Yall always mad af about something "emasculating" meanwhile rocky happy with his baby and lady having a beach day
