"The Surprise Around Cardi B’s Intelligence & Awareness Is Racist" - AFROPUNK

[Blankthawtz]

Regardless of how you feel about Cardi B's supposed intelligence, this sounds pretty st0rmfr0nt-ish.
I love it when topics like these are discussed, since it inevitably leads to a couple people exposing themselves.

People assume you gotta be an idiot to sell those products to your people

You’d be surprised (or not) how many religious women truly think like this. It’s why I can’t stand them. Hypocrites.

They are not religious; those are just people who happen to go to church on Sunday.

 

[I Really Mean It]

Maybe their shock at what's, at best, a basic grasp of the political issues dominating the airwaves is because she's a former stripper whose music is superficial

Firstly, someone being unable to articulate their thoughts well does not necessarily make them "unintelligent". The quote below is dangerously close to how WS exaggerate and mock how black people speak (See: "We Wuz Kangz and shieet")

"umm... I THINK WHAT... umm.... THE PRESIDENT BE DOIN IS....umm...STOOPID AND shyt NOMSAYIN..." - Smart Cardi B

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

She was a stripper. Thats how smart she is. She had literally nothing to offer society except her body

Stripping for money... She actually was attending community college at one point... and if I’m not mistaken, she went to a private performing arts school..... you could tell by her skits before she blew that she was quick with it

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

Now that she has money, why is she still promoting a slutty lifestyle through her music and videos?

If she's truly intelligent, why not use your spotlight to highlight worthy causes or do something that dims that light of whoredoms from off of you?

I think she does actually....

also, dont expect any real articles from afropunk

This is pretty much the bottom line

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

Err, I know people who came from similar backgrounds to Cardi B, who went on to become professionals. Your background doesn’t define the path you choose in life.

The fukk it does

The only thing i'll concede is that Cardi may possess street awareness or charisma, but if the discussion is about socio-political topics then people are reaching. The person that wrote that article created an issue out of thin air.
