Collaborations exposes your brand to new audiences. Look at the success of Beyonce & Nicki Minaj’s “Flawless”, or Jay Z & Kanye West’s “Watch the Throne”. Still not convinced look at the Nordstrom and Topshop collab? Each brand has been given the opportunity to be opened up to a different demographic. Webster defines a collaboration as a joint intellectual effort, made by many powers working together. It’s no wonder why so many companies over the years have participated in this strategy.

    It’s been 10 years since the last Missy Elliott album, and her return to the public eye with “WTF (Where They From)” is an unexpectedly huge breath of fresh air. Pharrell Williams’ production fits Elliott perfectly - it’s always shifting, dangerous, tasteful, plastic, colorful. Descending bass hits trigger indecipherable samples and airhorns; Elliott’s flow on top is memorable as she lingers on the last word of a line, “The dance that you doing is dumbbbbb, how they do it where you from?” The lyrics themselves are scathing and convicted, a middle finger to the Miley Cyrus-led wave of cultural appropriation as well as a justification of her own return. “Ugh, I’m so far ahead of y’all,” she mentions among a barrage of memorable lines.…

    I find that there are many times when I am being incongruent with who I should be and who I am. Beyoncé Knowles has a song titled Flawless and in it, the lyrics speak of the incongruency society has for woman by stating: “We teach girls to shrink themselves, to make themselves smaller. We say to girls, ‘you can have ambition, but not too much. You should aim to be successful, but not too successful, otherwise you will threaten man’ […] we raise girls to see each other as competitors, not for jobs or for accomplishments, but for the attention of men”. Women are perceived as bitches and should not be assertive is what I believe her song lyrics address a prominent phenomenon in our society.…

    Beyonce Knowles sparked controversy with the release of her self-titled album as it features a song that focuses on feminism, “***Flawless”. The song includes a section of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's TED Talk, “We Should All Be Feminists”, in which she talks about the differences in the social structure of a woman's and a man's life. While men are taught they can do or be anything, women must make choices in life “always keeping in mind that marriage is the most important”. Beyonce's mention of feminism throughout the album caused discussion around the issues of gender equality but unfortunately the topic is not treated as seriously as it used to be. While women have gained rights over the last century that has made them more equal to men, invisible restrains in both the workplace and in everyday life still limit women from reaching complete equality.…

    From paint spreading on a canvas, to bright lights shinning on a stage, women have equally shined in the limelight. When thinking lyrics that scream feminist, think Beyoncé; she has made it clear in all her songs that “girls run the world”, and should run this world. “We raise girls to see each other as competitors…Not for jobs or for accomplishments,….Which I think can be a good thing… But for the attention of men” directly out of her song called Flawless, Beyoncé shows how women are being brainwashed as kids, they don't even get to better them self’s, instead women do things for the attention of men.…
