Lyfe Jennings Defends His ‘Slave’ Song, Says It’s Just Sex Talk
If it was Lyfe Jennings intent to get attention to his new song “Slave” he’s definitely done a good job!
The R&B singer spoke with TMZ about the controversial lyrics in the song which include, “Got your ass hoppin’ like a frog / Got your legs shakin’ like two wet dogs / This ain’t the part we fall in love / This is the part we kiss and f**k.” Then he explicitly mentions slaves, saying … “I’m gon’ beat it like a slave / So you don’t run away / Got the whips and chains / Call me master.”
Some folks say the song saying it mocks “decades of exploitation of black bodies against their will.” It’s a bit much for me, but you can listen for yourself…
