That's really scary attaching sex/sexuality to class(especially if you don't pay attention to how these upper crusts be movin). It's the green light for lunatics to not step up when a woman goes through something.

Rainy Feathers

I bet them critics are grown ass aunties too. They need to go compete with women their own age.

Rainy Feathers

only 14 mins in and YEEEEUP every point.

emil

the link between “purity” and class has me reflecting. thank you for sharing, Kenya 🙏🏽

Shaquan Harris

PLEASEEE im so sick of adults acting like teenagers. GROW.UP. you are embarrassing get a grip.

Mai

As millie bobbie brown said, "for some reason people refuse to grow up with me"

Alexandria U

MONIQUE DID WHAT 😭😭😭😭

Taylor Haynes

This season of Abbott was SOOOO good! Like it was funny before but the writers and actors/actresses have definitely clicked this season and found their synergy.

Taylor Haynes

“Black monkey comedy” skdksksj i mean in so many words yeah. It’s fuck Jess for me especially after she made fun of Megan’s assault!

Mariah L.

Black people (all people but it makes me weep when my ppl do it) treat her with so much disdain and disgust it’s actually infuriating. They just look at her as something completely subhuman and repulsive, it’s strange.

Mariah L.

Absolutely!!

Mariah L.

that’s exactly what it is adult teenagers 😭😭😭

Taylor Haynes

It be soooooo weird when everyone turns into Puritans but also everyone got porn addictions, I’m confused

Taylor Haynes

Yes! Also the people going on and on about “I’m 27 but I would be DEVASTATED to have a baby rn as a teen mom” like yes this was cute to say at 22 maybe but it gets to a point

Mariah L.

The adult teenagers discourse is so real too. To address your point I will say my Gen X mom was one that always had us around my grandmother (I think that’s more of a communal black thing tho) but people need to cut the cord fr. You’re so right about the fact that it didn’t start with Gen Z either. I blame part of it on the “am I adulting yet” - “explain it to me like I’m 5” millennial trend which I myself have struggled with getting out of

Mariah L.

I have been on record for standing ten toes down in defense of Monique (not with the bonnet and belittling her son shit tho) but I’m sorry this was tacky. I’m not even mad at her still talking about it and holding him accountable cause it’s always fuck Tyler Perry for me. But her making the whole thing about herself in light of a funeral is just uncouth I’m sorry idk. And her husband sucks.

Mariah L.

Why do braiders always be the ones to throw on the shittiest shows 😭 mine had me watching The Family Business like I need us to have TASTE. (Hypocritical tho cause I watch my share of garbage too)

Mariah L.

I’m absolutely obsessed with Abbott Elementary to the point where I watch the Lego clips and reaction videos on YouTube. 🤭 I fully agree that Janelle James and Chris Perfetti should have their names engraved on an Emmy pronto! Also, I feel the need to mention that I love seeing Tariq pop up in any episode!

carly gill

Kenya i know you probably don’t like to rehash something you already have talked about but, we saw the pop pantheon guy say it but now i just heard a guest on the new york times podcast ‘Popcast’ say arguably gaga made beyonce weird with telephone and im not even sure where they would even be getting that idea from. Especially given what visuals and music beyonce was putting out at that time

loveme4me

Every conversation happening these days has me in so much confusion, the way people act about sex is so strange. It’s natural. People are having sex. And people having sex and not having sex still don’t know enough about sex so why is everyone acting so odd about it. You watching a movie or show with a couple that you enjoy, why the hell wouldn’t you want to see them have sex? What really gets me is people who act strange about sex understand there’s a significance to sex, but then act as if there is no significance to seeing people in tv and movies have sex. Sex changes the dynamics of relationships. If you watch a show with two friends and all of a sudden these two friends have sex, that changes the entire dynamic of their relationship, it’s not useless. When you watch two people date on screen and they have sex, that ignites something, either good great or bad. Like wtf who the hell doesn’t know that????? Marriage, sex, relationships. All the conversations we’re having surrounding these topics these days are so useless. Nothing productive coming out of it at all.

victoria

i’m also tired of “adult teenagers” like no you’re 30 grow up!

sadgalkaja

Can adults be adults again.. like.. You are so real for that conversation because man am I tired of adults afraid of growing up, it’s getting weird out here & it’s making media like shows/movies & music weird about what adult content is. Let’s be grown here. These women are PERFORMING. I highly doubt they are this “sexed up” in private with family & friends or on their personal time. we see the performance they put on & this is what they give us. I think people are so online they think this small portion we see of them is how they must be at all times of the day. It’s the same as when Britney came into her VMA “I’m a slave 4 u” or madonna kiss— it’s a performance, these women are being show women as they should be. The peanut gallery has such a hard time with it because they wish they had this confidence or bravery to be able to do what you want with this choice . They couldn’t handle the hate these women get. It is honestly so easy to say what you WOULDNT do bc I’m sure if they were in these women’s positions, they’d sing a different tune.

Reyhan

The girls are forgetting that one of sabrina’s first semi-hit on the scene was “all because i liked a boy.” She learned the lesson very early that no matter what she does, they’ll call her a slut anyways so her persona now is like a f*ck you and i say good for her!! 😌

taylor

i’m def one of the girlies that had a sexual liberation phase in college that has permanently damaged my relationship w sex. talking about it def makes me uncomfortable so i just turn it off lmaooo. it’s not anybody else’s job to make me feel better about the decisions i made.

joi

She also said she doesn’t get why people think she’s horny and sexed up all the time just because she isn’t shy about sex 😭 part of it is really because people have subconscious religious trauma and aren’t having sex themselves. She does normal risquè things for her age

Indi

Beauty in Black is a soap opera… if you look it from that angle you can swallow it

Dejavu

considering the fact that Sabrina's sex positions only last about five seconds during her 90 MINUTE CONCERTS, it's bizarre that they've gotten THIS MUCH attention??? she simulated the Eiffel tower while performing in Paris! it's a silly pun, so laugh!!! I also fully agree about Sabrina and Sexyy Red (as a fan of both). Sab gets painted as innocent based on her vintage pinup aesthetic and subtle, *wink wink* delivery while Sexyy gets criticized more regularly bc she's more bold w/ it (and also racism), but both women get hit w/ slut shaming just the same. it's different flavors of misogyny at the end of the day

jade smith

As always, incredibly grateful for this entertainment 😭🔥

Peter

Like you said the prudishness that happens online is a result of people having an overinflated sense of self online, because some of the same people complaining this being too sexual are the same ones that would say ‘till the room stinks’ or lusting after whoever.

Nyongbella

You're the second online personality I've heard say that Sexyy Red and Sabrina Carpenter are very similar and I'm happy people are starting to recognize that

Ronnisha Wilson

Beauty in black is not fucking good lol I watch it with my bestie and it’s more of a silly guilty pleasure like tubi movie nights lmao

Indi

Yep because look how they treated Chloe Bailey

Abisola

Random but could you do the get to know my booktaste tag my mynameismarines(YouTube) i think we have similar taste and im always searching for recs

Christina Oghagbon

exactly, sexyy red quoted a tweet about sabrina and people were being so weird towards her about it. and acting like sabrina would be corrupted or smth by her

Dairus Wilson

Can you link them? I'm so curious

Alexis

When it comes to these types of conversations I genuinely feel like people are either horny or jealous (men and women alike) and theres a sense of frustration about not knowing what to do with that, so instead they feign intellectualism that just doesn’t exist or just barely does. Its like have the conversations you want to have but don’t be disingenuous.

Abisola

It’s harder to fuck someone when your momma is down the hall!

Sara

I think quarantine triggered or exacerbated so much of that regression you’re talking about. It’s festered for half a decade. You’re not supposed to spend that much time with your parents (online learning/financial hardship/elder care). The isolation in general deprived young people the opportunity to explore things on their own, and if they had any confidence built up, the isolation squashed the belief that they could or should. (Plz don’t think I’m saying “people should not have quarantined as long as they did”)

Sara

Sabrina Carpenter literally blew up cuz she was raunchy with her Nonsense outros, why would she run away from that? she was slowing gaining tractions before then, and then the drivers license stuff gave her more eyes and then she made people chuckle with every new city… it was never serious. I’ve always seen her act as a curation for the girly pops and the gays…

Sara

i think at some point women need to acknowledge they’re just as obsessed with tearing down other women as men are cus the crazy thing is they do this to the girlies that aren’t overtly sexual either, ppl like to forget but they were calling taylor swift a slut in 2013 for dating two ppl in the same year and dating their man crush Monday and her image has never been overtly sexual, every few years or so when certain female celebrities gets popular for whatever reason, the internet decides they should be hated for those reasons, and the main two are always they’re being annoying and being too sexual and this has been happening since the birth of popism lol society will always hate women having their own autonomy and shame them for having autonomy

ceeitrus

I'm 25 and yep many are grown teenagers. I never relate when they say I still feel like a teen/18, not me. Teen me and current me are not the same

KRYSTAL

The algorithm did the BIG one when they put Kenya on our feeds. The fact that Kenya has built a Patreon community who tune in faithfully and religiously just to see and hear her talk about anything is crazy in the best way possible.

Dynasty Andrews

My theory is that Sabrina gets away with being hypersexual because she’s a white pop artist. Pop music is hypersexual, but it isn’t done in the same way that female rap is. In pop music it’s more implied and innuendos, but in female rap it’s a lot more raunchy and explicit. I said in an earlier comment that a black female pop artist wouldn’t receive the same treatment that Sabrina is getting when she does her Juno poses every concert or when she did her nonsense outros for her last tour. Can you imagine if Sexy Red did her own version of nonsense outros??

Dynasty Andrews

Sabrina Carpenter goes relatively unscathed for being hypersexual because 1. She’s a white woman and 2. she’s makes pop music. If a black female pop artist did something similar to Sabrina’s Juno poses or her Nonsense outros the outrage and distaste would be astronomical.

Dynasty Andrews

23:45 - that is a different song but the point still stands and it has caused me to reevaluate how I’ve looked at Sexxy Red’s trajectory. The come ride on me (or come right on me) line is from Bed Chem. The song where she does the positions and stuff is Juno (which tbf, has the lyric “I’m so fuckin’ horny”)

Riffy

The titles never disappoint, my lawd 😂😭

Vic

If you want to read more about Sabrina, here are two articles that went viral: https://jadehurley.substack.com/p/your-fave-is-selling-a-pedophilic?utm_campaign=posts-open-in-app&triedRedirect=true https://finalgirldigital.substack.com/p/whos-afraid-of-sabrina-carpenter?utm_campaign=posts-open-in-app&triedRedirect=true I loved when you talk about how celebrities lean into what makes them attracted, especially the women. I understand the criticism that she relies too much on her short height and her youthful face. Yes, she wouldn't have this criticism if she was tall and mature looking, because she wouldn't be able to access this specific market. Similar to Sexxy Red, she would he criticized for something else. The lolita photoshoot and "I'm full grown but I look like a nína" were bad looks. But jealousy over male attention is playing a huge part in the response. People need to learn pop history. Sex is one of the best song topics besides love. When most singers choose a topic besides those two, the public ignores it! Moral of the Story : Choice feminism was a mistake and we need to reconnect feminism with politics.

jade smith

If you ever make that Adult Teenagers video, I have so many links to articles from 2017 and 2019 that talked about the beginning of the sex decline we're in, specifically all the factors that led to it. Now on 2025 we're really seeing the negative results of the sex decline.

jade smith

Sabrina has said in an interview that the hyper sexual persona she gives off is just that — a stage persona! I’m pretty sure it’s geared towards young women who want to have fun and feel those vibes in her songs and concerts.

Alexandra March

the sabrina haters love to uplift olivia to shame sabrine bc she's not "catering to the male gaze" and 1) all pop stars are catering to men to some extent, expect if they're lesbian 2) olivia wrote most of her songs when she was a teenager, so of course her image + songs will be less s*xual, duh! what are we doing here?? 😭

Nini

I think the cultural shift of "adult teenagers " is also shaped by the tenuous nature of the economy, wages being stagnated and unable to move out of you're parents house, means that you're kinda forced to delay the onset of how adulthood is traditionally defined. (That's not to say that you should follow the parameters of traditional adulthood, as a queer lesbian I believe that adulthood is how you define it) but it's something that peaked a thought when Kenya was talking about adult teenagers .

honeybee

Kenya do you watch severance? Season 2 just finished airing it's so good, I'm interested what you'd think of it. Also, are you watching the new yellowjackets? I haven't watched in weeks it's kind of been a stale season but maybe I need to keep watching idk

Ray

Congrats to Sabrina! This level of criticism means you're on your way to the big leagues. I had this same feeling when Ariana was getting ripped to shreds when 7 rings came out (though a lot of that criticism was warranted). I knew we were going down this route when they started obsessively calling her "female gaze" and contrasting her with Sydney Sweeney "male gaze". You just like Sabrina and don't feel threatened by her, but you dislike Sydney and feel threatened by her. This happened to Sydney when women were angry calling her ugly and outraged why men didn't agree.

jade smith

Kenya they dragged me months ago on threads when I called sabriana haters low life losers

Alexis

I would LOVE a longer video about sexyy red and black peoples reactions to her

Jjjjj

My mother and grandmother stayed very close to each other and we basically lived in a multigenerational home 😂 but we the kind of black that lives in a town where every one is family. I PERSONALLY go see them on holidays and i only live a town over 🤷🏾‍♀️. They aggy.

Mycah

This!!! And right after we can cover the adult teenager theory.

Jessica Davis

Yeah, I'm gonna need that next video about sabrina carpenter's and sexyy red's stage presence's being the same, STAT. Cuz you're soooooooo right omg

Alexandria U

Ok literally how could Lizzo make those songs and be like “oh this is the best song in the world. This is so fresh. Oh my god I did my big one”. Her last 2 songs are just fine…

diego

I’m so sick of peope screaming and peeing over a Wizards of Waverly Place reboot and shit like that like WHO GAF ?!?!!

diego

Kenya get out my house because I'm rewatching Abbott Elementary too😭 I really hope Abbott gets back to winning awards like the first season because this season has really entertained me. The ringworm episode is probably one of my favorites. Some of the rhetoric I've seen around Sabrina the past few days has baffled me immensely😭 So many people need to have conversations with themselves about sex/sexuality and why they feel the need for other grown ass adults to be the exact the same way or they're a harlot.

Kayla Sanders

Chris Perfetti (Jacob on Abbott Elementary) is such a great actor. He has amazing acting range.

Bendu

Lizzo is simultaneously annoying and people are hard on her. My personal issue has always been that if they’re going to hate anyway, be interesting? Do interesting music? But I think I fully accepted who Lizzo was musically when About Damn Time happened. Like yeah, it’s cute. It’s meant to be radio hit. That’s fine. Go head.

Eric

Kenya you’re genuinely so wise. I feel so lucky that I found your YouTube channel by chance years ago

Jjjjj

Mm millenials and genz? I don’t know I always loved songs about sex and think it’s normal but also idk who cares

Sarah Uwagbai

K@ny3 being an og stunt queen is so true!!

christian

My issue isn’t with Lizzo as a performer. My issue is what happened with that lawsuit? Also, her choice in legal representation…

C

KENYA AND SABRINA MY FAVS

sienna

My girl met Janet Jackson as well Sabrina your on a roll!
