Meeting #9

Keri Hilson's The Way you love me vs. Raheem's Devaughn's She's Single

Keri Hilson
The Way You Love Me


 Raheem Devaughn
She's Single

After viewing both of these videos you could wonder how people reacted to them. With Keri Hilson's video where she is acting out of character and has written this explicit song even though she admits to knowing her audience are girls, yet she also stated in the same interview that this song isn't for girls. We're not too sure where Keri is going with this one. Then we get to Raheem Devaughn's video which alot of people had no problem with. Raheem Devaughn's reasoning behind the video was to show that women are on the same level as men now, and just as men have been going out and cheating for some time now, women can do the same thing.

Comments made:
- I used to view Keri Hilson as someone who never went to that level and I was proud of her for that but now she's right along with all the rest of the artists that put their bodies' out there.
- Why would Keri ever do something like this if she knows who her audience is and clearly they're going to buy this album that includes the song even if a couple of the words are changed, the idea behind it is still the same.
- Its crazy that Keri Hilson can put something like this out and get so much heat about it yet when Raheem Devaughn puts out a porno, he gets a slap on the back for it
- The whole issue on the double standard
