CeeLo Green calls Nicki desperate, slams Cardi & Megan

CeeLo Green is sharing his unsolicited opinions on a few of the top-charting women in the rap game: Cardi B, Megan Thee Stallion and Nicki Minaj.

During a recent interview published in Far Out magazine on Sunday (Aug. 9), the Atlanta native spoke on artists sexualizing themselves in their music, stating that there should be a "time and a place" for "adult content" in music. He also called these sorts of songs "shameless" and said they lack morality.

"A lot of music today is very unfortunate and disappointing on a personal and moral level," he opined. "There was once a time when we were savvy enough to code certain things. We could express to those it was meant for with the style of language we used. But now music is shameless, it is sheer savagery."

The Goodie Mob member then name-drops Cardi and Megan, questioning the price they'll ultimately have to pay as a result of them producing sexually suggestive music. "Attention is also a drug and competition is around,” CeeLo says. “Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion, they are all more or less doing similar salacious gesturing to kinda get into position. I get it, the independent woman and being in control, the divine femininity and sexual expression. I get it all.” He inquires that "it comes at what cost?".

CeeLo went on to weigh in on Nicki Minaj's platform and influence, calling her position as a role model ineffective. "You have the ‘Heads of State,’ like Nicki Minaj or someone who is up there in accolade: success, visibility, a platform to influence," he adds. "Nicki could be effective in so many other constructive ways, but it feels desperate."

Why are people always up and arms only when women do explicit sexual songs? There's songs about what  a man wants to do with his dick coming out every minute but no one talks about them like they're the end of morality and civilization. 

Not him equating female sexuality with savagery basically animals gaga6

the fact that its 2020 and people are STILL uncomfortable with women being sexual is the exact same reason why it still needs to be pushed

Sounds like he's addicted to it since he felt the need to tear down three black women. Why is it that whenever a man expresses himself sexually no one says anything but whenever a woman does it, they get up in arms? Can y'all fuck off and leave women alone please? It's so weird cause if female artists suddenly stop expressing themselves sexually and started wearing less revealing clothing, they'd get called uptight, boring and they'd need to "loosen" up a bit

Spoiler

The song and video weren't even that raunchy and revealing.rip4  I've seen and heard far worse from both male and female artists.

1) he was being interviewed, so obviously there was someone asking his opinion, and caring for it, for any of you saying 'who cares' 

2) he has a point about blatant adult content rather than artist lyrical content, being provocative and not crass

3) he didn't lie about Nicki's role model status

 

The real question here is what interviewer felt like he needed to ask ceelo these opinions and to push this narrative with him, given his shady history with women. While he doesn't say anything particularly out of order, it does feel wrong coming from him
