i fuckingggg lovee thisssssssss i watched it over and over againnnRatchet Girl Anthem
I enjoyed this way too much. Watched it over & over & over again, I think I know all of the words. And the dark skin one is one fine chocolate fella!
LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO IM FUCKIN DYIN AT THEY FACIAL EXPRESSSIONS!! HAHAAHHAHAAHAHAHAHHA
crying.
The tears just streaming out of my face!! “Oh i get it your hair is a jungle…” xD
But why do I have a soror who talks like the one who did the rapping (in the locs)” she even makes those exact faces. I was dying though this entire thing. LOL
is it bad that I cringe when i hear a chick talking like this?
I ain’t gon act like I don’t have fam that sounds like this, #doe. I won’t. I can’t even………………man, listen……………………
This gives me all kinds of feelings…..
- They are adorable and cute and talented and are part of my if this up north metro shit don’t work I’m taking my but down south.
- I am #teamratchet and what!!
- The word finna gives me all sorts of literary glee . ALL SORTS OF do you understand the COMPLEXITY there in
I’M SAYING DOE. like, the ONLY reason folks might look at this as worthless in any way is cause of racism, classism, and anti-blackness in general. like, this is an incredibly nuanced performance complete with its own internal logic, aesthetic, and humor. and i could just literally sit here and trace SO much of this DIRECTLY back to africa - like, theatre that is commentary on one’s community AND is entertainment? that is an AFRICANISM. straight up.
Cani go in on it’s use of a three part greek structure , chorus and chorale , consistent and personalizing narrative, inflection , repetition, musicality, satire as both affection and criticism , establishing links tooth black comedic tradition AND new age cultural media desemination and tehlinguistics alone….
SEE WHAT YOU DO TO ME
