I think I live in a dream world. No. Crying is a sign of horror which is a true experience. We live in terror. Finding out the irrational part of soul which is irrational itself because it refers to god’s existence, but we like to think it is there stating human depth and spirit, moral virtue, happy person with faith, theoretical activity, what is that, thinking there is more to it, to this, than what we see, ideal life, immoral ideal life making us scared.
Artist is the art.
After having watched several of her videos the experience was numbing.
If she was a boy.
To analyze music videos of this day, what kind of purpose they serve is clear and at the same time culture of music videos hold an irritating simplicity of necessity. I have been studying Beyoncé’s musical artistry and thinking how should I study them, her pieces of art. What to make out of this block other than what has been said before. Videos which do not represent originality nor does her style travel far from mainstream, but they are recognizable and style of hers is particular. That little bit pops out, but only a little bit popping out. She has her dance moves which label her and make her mark. She has her dancers as do many pop singers. They follow her in the back. Something old and something of her own, but not alone. Most she is familiar via her body which is well in front, in the middle. In focus are her curves. They seem to be the main subject and at core of femininity. Her body is praised and it is seen as emancipation and empowerment of womanhood to walk the way she walks. Self-consciously walking straight ahead. Movement is her weapon. A modern woman moves and is active. Her self-assurance is the one feature which makes her noticed and admired among women. She works in a field where women do not have curves other than plastic breasts and in fashion where lank body is a norm.
Yes she has things to say and she says them in music industry’s factory ways. Most powerful videos of hers are those where her sexual expression is not the main issue. Empowerment is a curious conscious choice. To empower oneself from being inferior one needs to build self-esteem and imagine a path for oneself on which one can stand and walk on with certain pride. Take that path without hesitation, it is yours, one’s own way. Which choice everyone must make on their own, which is empowerment via growth, knowledge of self via growing up.
Are music videos about growing up and growing with. Very little is emphasized on mental and emotional growth, which is ironical since the most music made deals with feelings and people’s emotional life.
How the Bey issue is addressed and how feminism is discussed. Do you think her power is in her thighs, is it in her voice, her beauty, her gender, her African-American heritage and in her dance.
”Both through song and visuals, we see Beyoncé toasting up all sorts of caviar dreams and champagne wishes, including the following:”

Marketing plus PR equal success. Story solutions, coverage and narrative of divas and making the world a better place for themselves. Times of moral crisis: Explicit contents, sexuality for sale and how it adds up with feminism. What does feminism represent for a pop star and for the music industry?
Impenetrable secret, what a lie
Please remain seated, please remain silent. Please button up a black dress, respectable quiet nod. Requested in my emotional every moment, so little is revealed. I cannot. His face of answers and accusations. Warnings between every hair of his dark beard. Destroy the evidence and the past.
Broke a barrier I thought had dissolved itself. Lightly given generally optimistic bulletin, his echo repeated the same. His absolute cannot be disturbed. The effort of rising a demanding bank has worn me out
and I am not half way the pile of corpses. The ones who really do not speak are those who are alive.
Shutting down, shutting up, shutting off, shutting in, shutting closing.
Indecent openness must not be heard,
a threat to reveal us all, the root of ours. So it does not exist as we do not say it?
Disbelief towards such fate. Unapproved, unsolved, unwanted, cannot be done. I refuse.
Go Beyond it. (no judgmental tone, do not judge, who is the judge) Part of those who entertain us.
Powerful over whom and for whom? How does power manifest itself by women, via women, via visibility and what is the stage women can be powerful on? What is female power and do women have it in the end? Do women make decisions and decide for their work? Who is the weak in this image of making it? Who is stepped over in this business driven world as it is struggle for survival? Women have battled with those who have power over them, who have justified their power with god’s word. That woman is not capable of taking care of herself, making decisions not even over her own life. The repetitious mantra of having control and power over one’s body, life, work and art is rightful, but it is still a mantra if women do not take the stand. World is changing fast, women gain their rights by putting up a fight. There is no other way. The opposition is bigoted patriarchy and religious tradition, God’s word.
How are we affected? How are we made numb?
Part of entertainer’s job is to entertain. The more it gets noticed the more political it is. The more people listen the more there is reason to put out a message to be heard. To share is political act, to act for all the oppressed couldn’t be more needed. The more people do not pay attention the more they have to be shaken and woken up.
How does entertainment shake the world other than making sexual advancements, opening a blouse, taking it off and showing genitalia. Nothing out of the ordinary. We have seen it. The most ordinary landscape on the scene. Do they who create this visual spectacle for us speak for free sex, for prostitution and sex trade, sexual expression and what it is to be a woman? Is that freedom to be able to show skin, sexual freedom to be taken over and had? Beyoncé showing her buttocks in her show becomes a hit in YouTube. It does not make the society more approving towards sexual expression. Our obsession over sex could still not be more obvious. A matter talked over in talk shows and by journalists. It is a funny topic. Scenery is exactly from a red light district as her dancers wear the same behind showing accessories, posterior-revealing lingerie. It is the latest superstar fashion on stage. Or is it? Position as standing back against the audience, bending one’s back and looking the crowd, gazing behind one’s shoulders and singing holding the microphone. This saying by me sounds I disapprove. I disapprove the cliché, I dislike the ongoing similarity and unwillingness of pushing any envelope. That envelope has been opened and seen. Lack of any kind of self-criticism nor effort to do differently. Is that power, to be a wanted body? Is that showing the world how to be wanted. To portray women on platter singing about relationships, having sex, breaking up and being a strong independent woman.
”Ms Winhoffer says Beyonce’s body yesterday represents a marked change from her more muscular shape of last year. ’We can see a major change in her body from previous years. She represents female empowerment and embodies it on stage, her body is lean and elongated but most importantly, feminine.’She was able to keep her V shape while maintaining her rear, keeping it plump and lifted.’She says this new silhouette is the holy grail for a female client.”

Gully cradles none
A place of lonely struggle one might think. One can learn how to picture it. How one stands, what is there, the treasure to be found. Is solitude accepted, how far is it my own and a struggle, a part that belongs to everybody. And when the fight ends, it is not in death, but in understanding what one can do and become.

uhh baby yes harder (is this a woman?).
Give it to me baby nice and slow (is this a woman too?).
Yes harder, but be nice and slow.
That requires talent to do hard and be nice simultaneously. Niceness is of course the outcome of sex, self-evidently pleasurable. To be hard and nice is a lovely contradiction and combination what comes to having sex. It is like bringing up children, be firm but loving. Know what you are doing and what is wanted of you. Funny is how these pornographic clichés work. They must work, because they are used quite much. Horny is a state of mind of the contemporary world.
Level of arousal and intoxication of an upcoming orgasm is a state of overwhelming simplicity of sudden feel good.
Niceness and slowness, coming. What a disgusting image of drooling. A self-centred pleasure hunt. Where there is a cunt. Give it to me. What do I get in return? Is it a give and take? A sexist power play where there is something for someone’s self only. Good time for me, only, but you must get something out of it too. Yea, sure I want exactly the same thing as you, and I want to give everything to you, because we are the same mind, we want the same pleasure. In mutual understanding I provide your ecstasy.

Same old same old?
It seems we are making a world of less. The contradiction is that there is plenty of everything for all. Why not share it? In world of less we are and have more and more. Less of what? Welfare? Love? Means? Possibilities? What do we have less than before and when is before? Yesterday? Did we not have enough in the first place? Isn’t it a basic human trouble, to be inadequate and lacking? It is a strange puzzle to organize, the amount of how much is good enough, and I don’t get the bottom of it. We do not get the bottom of it. Maybe there is no bottom, of course, it is a bottomless world partly unknown, seemingly full, people seemingly adventurous and deep in their thinking.
But we like the surface of things which reflect security and calm, peace and prosperity. Somehow there are no solutions that fit all and those things that change the world are making variety scarce and marginal. As it has been always. Strong eat the weak.
