Its so puritan to only want art with perfect morals

Art should reflect the human experience not be a moral standard to live our lives by. Let the girls be messy!

The wild thing for me is that this conversation doesn’t happen for any male artist like ever

Renee’s whole platform is how she’s not perfect, she’s messy, etc. it’s authentic to her and we love authenticity 👏

Rihana had the song unfaithful, the Backstreet Boys had the song The Call. Shaggy had it wasn’t me. Also I think getting a cheater POV in a song is interestingz

I agree w kendahl I think, I wanna know the bad guy’s perspective too (wish they weren’t gaining the money for it though lol)

I'm pro the cheater and the cheated on making music about it unless it like very literally names someone. That's a bridge too far.

I think the problem is the flattening of the moral curve on this. People have unrealistic expectations of each other to be wholly perfect that they don’t maintain for themselves

Even Taylor Swift has songs about being unfaithful or fantasizing about being unfaithful. It's not that deep. we dont know these ppl

Rebekah Blake :
I think that what’s hard is that a man can release a song like this and people would eat that shit up. I think we can discuss that she did this bad thing and also understand that we don’t understand the nuances that lead to that scenario. At the end of the day, the song is a bop.

One of Rihanna's best songs is about cheating. Like, I feel bad for the person that was cheated on, but it wasn't me, like I couldn't care less.

I think it’s great to get both perspectives in different medias. Hard to listen as the person who got cheated on, but hearing both sides is always interesting. Tea.

i think the people cheated who the song is about can be upset. and is a little "meh" or "tacky" yeah, but not world ending enough for me to be super upset

if someone cheated on me and released I Can't Have You Around Me Anymore -- people would have to pry me off the bathroom floor

I think you also need the context of the whole album - Reneé was also cheated on, and in addition has songs about knowing these feelings are bad and not wanting to act upon them - and in the context of YLTWY, she’s quoting the other person, not herself

Robyn’s Call Your Girlfriend threw me off so much the first time I heard it and then I became obsessed haha

Kevin Redfern :
r&b and pop has always been riddled with "cheating" songs, damn Usher made a whole album about it.
my only thing is if you wanna make that music accept everything that it comes with, people wanna play both sides. nah you're the "bad guy" now. artist like Brent faiyaz, weekend, future...they make that music an acceptable that role

Alexa :
People hate when people have shades of grey. I listen to her songs and love them for sharing her true experiences even if it makes her the bad guy. I definitely also think “oof, I would never date someone who talks about cheating like this” but that doesn’t mean she is an awful bad person.

I love that all of the comments are full paragraphs! I don't think the song celebrates cheating. So in that sense I think it's okay. kind of like Jordyn touched on, if the song was I'm a cheater and it was so good and now my life is better, that would definitely be in poor taste

I agree with Kendahl, art is about the human experience, and human experience isn’t all good beautiful perfect all the time

I think people are too worked up about her talking about this when we have no idea what else went on in these relationships.
