Summary

Beyoncé's latest album has been praised by the New York Times as “black queer bravado,” but the song “Heated” landed Queen B in hot water with cancel culture. The lyrics to the song contain the word “spaz,” a word that we learned is an “ableist slur” among the disabled community. Disabled people believe words matter and want to hold people to standards. Jason asks why the black community doesn’t hold artists like Beyoncé to account when they use lyrics that denigrate themselves. “We’re the only group with absolutely no standard. The entire rap music industry is built on the N-word. It is used repeatedly in nearly every successful commercial rap song. Rappers brag about killing n******, raping n******, robbing n******, dissing n******. No one cares. Beyoncé uses the N-word in 'Heated.' No one cares.” "Fearless" contributor Delano Squires joins the conversation to examine the impact of popular culture on communities and shares his thoughts on TericaStar, a Florida A&M coed who celebrated receiving her master’s degree by posing nude on campus. Delano explains how “junkiepox” has infested a generation. Shemeka Michelle stops in to answer the question of the day: What is "black queer bravado"? Plus, she helps us make sense of the “Swim Thick” pool parties targeting plus-sized women. Finally, Skip Bayless was critical of LeBron James after the NBA’s top star failed to acknowledge the passing of legend Bill Russell on social media. Jason shares the truth about Russell and why he believes LeBron remains silent on the matter.Bey  ​​Today's Sponsor: You spoke and we listened, so The Blaze patriotic sock packs are back again!

According to the New York Times, Beyoncé's new album, Renaissance, has black queer bravado.

0:10.0

What it no longer has is the word spaz. Disable people don't like the word spaz. Spaz is bad. Black queer bravado is good.

That's the world we live in now. The first word spoken on Beyoncé's album are please mother efforts.

She repeats the phrase over and over again adding, ain't stopping me. Mophos ain't stopping Beyoncé.

And neither are black people. Beyoncé is enjoying her right to denigrate embarrassed and trash black people.

Welcome to Fearless with Jason Whitlock. I am Jason Whitlock, your host. Happy Tuesday to you and yours.

1:14.0

Hopefully on this Tuesday you have black queer bravado as well. I'm wishing you black queer bravado.

1:22.0

Anyway, we have a fantastic show playing for you today. Delano Squires, Professor D. The Smartus Man on the show will be here shortly to help me talk about Beyoncé and black queer bravado and other things.

1:34.0

She's going to help me make it make sense of Beyoncé but also more importantly, you guys have ever heard of an event called Swim Thick.

1:46.0

Swim Thick. That's SWIM Thick. It's an event that I guess has gone on in Houston for about eight years. I think they've taken the event to Atlanta.

1:58.0

It's a lot of fat people in a pool. Swim Thick. I'm going to have Shemika Michelle make it make sense.

2:08.0

And then I'm going to end today's show by dangerously commenting on the passing of Bill Russell. You don't want to miss the ending of this show.

2:18.0

All right, but as we like to do here, we'll start with a fire. You know what, before I mention the fire, before I get to the fire, I'd like for you guys on youtube.com slash Jason Whitlock to hit that subscription button, hit those likes, get the likes up.

2:38.0

Also, I'd like for you on a scale of nine to 10 if you're punching to the chat. How good do I look on a scale of nine to 10 right now? How good do I look right now?

2:50.0

It's got to be at least a nine and a half. But anyway, let's get to this fire start. I've had a little fun. If you're listening on Apple, give me that fire start review. You guys, you know, you owe it to me. All right.

3:02.0

Let's get this party started. The first word spoken on Beyonce's new album, or please mother efforts. She repeats the phrase over and over again, adding ain't stopping me. Please mother efforts ain't stopping me. Renaissance.

3:18.0

Her seven studio album is explicitly crude and profane. A New York Times reviewer described the 40 year old singers 16 song collection as steeped in black queer bravado.

3:34.0

Wesley Morris, the Pulitzer Prize winning reviewer, never defined black queer bravado. The readers left to assume that queer bravado is as endemic to black people as full lips wide noses, nappy hair, and obscene music.

3:52.0

Beyonce, the so-called heir to a wreath of Franklin's title as the queen of soul, has more in common with Cardi B and Megan the Stauyan than the icon who demanded RESP-ECT respect.

4:08.0

Beyonce symbolizes the catastrophic descent of black culture and America's indifference to its fall. Renaissance is controversial for its use of the word, Spass. Not the Phil spewed by a middle aged married mother of three.

4:25.0

Expectations have fallen so low for American black people that no one expects Beyonce to mature or make music that up lips black folk. No, our only expectation is that she contains her penchant for degeneracy and integration to black people.
