Thoughts on Brooke Valentine's D-Girl
By: Jason Cunningham (8-2-2006)
A couple of months ago, I heard a song by singer Brooke
Valentine that alarmed me. The title of the song is D-Girl. After listening to
the single, I paused for a second. I could not believe that Brooke Valentine
made a song about being a dope girl.
Some people are going to think that I am being hard on a
female. No, I am just shocked that someone with Brooke Valentine's talent would
waste a good beat on a song with a ridiculous message. A lot of hip-hop records
may talk about drug use, but when did someone decide that being a dope girl is
something worthy. A dope girl profits from man selling drugs, while
families become broken, children become addicted, and the employment rate goes
up, as a result of these drugs infecting our communities.
Unlike movies, some people really believe their favorite
music artists are speaking to him or her through their music. It would be wise
if more people see these artists as actors. Nevertheless, the song D-Girl
is going to be a mega-hit. In my opinion, it has a beat made by Pimp C that is a
classic. The singing by Brooke Valentine is amazing. However, I wished she had
used these vocals on another topic. The video tells the story of the song, and
she has never looked better. If you never seen Brooke Valentine before, she is a
vision of beauty.
I do believe in the First Amendment. So, I am not calling
for boycott of Brooke Valentine. This is America, even if I disagree with the
message of the song. Censorship will not rid our communities of dope girls!
