tb to when Soul went on Sway to promote DWTW as an album that brought awareness and empowerment to women, while simultaneously maintaining that when he referred to women as bitches, he was doing so without malice– and therefore they should find no reason to take offense. and the other women at the radio station were visibly uncomfortable with this rationalization. like bro ur a PoC, how do u not get how hypocritical/tone deaf that is?
also i havent heard DWTW in years but i dont remember it being v female empowering. frankly i dont remember it having a cogent message of any sort.
