Kiely Williams' "Date rape anthem"

http://clutchmagonline.com/newsgossi...s-spectacular/

Kiely Williams (former "Cheetah Girls" star and member of the girl group 3LW) recorded this song and video, clearly glorifying blacked-out sex. After being criticized, she released this youtube video...

...basically saying that not all songs need to have positive messages.

Then she contradicted herself in a written statement (link above) claiming "I wrote 'Spectacular' and made the video to bring attention to a serious women's health and safety issue. Don't shoot the messenger."

I'm sad to see a young woman, particularly one with a fan-base of little girls and tweens, so desperate to be seen as grown and sexy that she's willing to sing "Last I remember I was face down/Ass up, clothes off, broke off, dozed off/ Even though I'm not sure of his name/ He could get it again if he wanted"
and "What he did to me last night felt so good/ I must have been on drugs/ I hope he used a rubber/ Or I'mma be in trouble." SMH
