Starting point is 00:00:00 Side note, y'all remember when Nikki Minaj and Miley Cyrus was beefing back in 2015? Obviously, it probably started before there. But when Nikki came out and literally went on Twitter to express her not being nominated for Video of the Year award, and then Cyrus, who was hosting the VMAs, responded by, uh, Nikki wasn't too kind. It was so funny how Nikki confronted Miley on stage, right? Because she was actually there. She was just tweeting. So she confronted Myris on stage, basically shading her and then Miley Cyrus.
Starting point is 00:00:37 It was like the typical black stereotype, right? You know, as black people in America, you get poked at for no reason. And when you respond in an aggressive manner, now you're either the angry black man or the angry black woman. Even if you're justified, that stereotype has lived and has stood the test. of time. I don't know what it is. But let somebody else. I don't want to make it a race thing, but you know, Miley is white, Nikki is black.
Starting point is 00:01:07 And I did say this was a side tangent, so I'm wrapping this up soon. But basically, when Niki confronted Miley, after Miley Cyrus basically saying that Minaj was not too kind and she didn't think that MTV has snubbed her, did she not think she was going to get some type of response from Onika Mirage? Like, come on now. The queen of rap is definitely going to have
Starting point is 00:01:29 some type of rebuttal as far as bars sent you away. So after she cut deep with those bars when she confronted Cyrus on stage of the VMAs, Miley Cyrus simply said she didn't understand why Niki Minaj was so upset. So anyways, with that being said, let's get into the reality of the situation, and that is, Miley Cyrus has put out new music. Now, what does that mean, right? what do people want to hear from moly cyrus i would say that moly cyrus of course is still one of the more talented human beings i've seen and that's not me caping i feel like that's just an obvious fact i feel like molly cyrus is one of the more talented people on the planet but maybe i'm you know maybe i'm guessing you know maybe i just saw hannah montana and to her like having a successful
Starting point is 00:02:28 pop star music career and television to transition to going to pop star having a pop star music career in real life i'm like dang drake couldn't even pull that off like he was in a wheelchair in his tv show anyways that's besides a point so molly cyrus has released a new track titled used to be young uh accompanied by a music video and of course you know with molly cyrus these all well with most pop singers most of their tracks as far as singles are reflective and this track is distributed under Columbia Records, a division of Sony. So she's under Sony.
Starting point is 00:03:08 That's interesting. So Molly Cyrus mentioned that the song is about honoring her past. Of course, you know, a bunch of stuff that makes it more sentimental than it actually is. And then the music video, of course, has certain qualities that leads you to believe they definitely put some thought into it. Because at some time, at some point in covering hip hop, I realize that artists just do not care about music videos. I just walk around, have some girls, some money, and then basically that's the whole video. So I do appreciate how pop stars, like Amali Stars, takes time to craft and meticulously go about their process of making a quality, heavy music video.
Starting point is 00:03:52 so anyways um the track used to be young comes with a a revamped version of her disney plus special now available to be streamed on hulu i swear it's not an ad i'm just i'm fine this out in real time so hey myly size has some type of disney special available on hulu which is weird does disney own hulu hasn't even work anyways uh moiley myley's album endless summer vacation was released in March and then used to be young it's her first single since then I'm trying to figure out ah okay I see what I see what I said I see what she's going for so basically because of her hit songs like flowers and river now she's at the point of her career where she's so successful she's starting to reflect on her young career and her older career not to call Molly
Starting point is 00:04:57 Syri's old but you know actually I will look it up but I feel like that's like disrespectful so we just gonna say that she's not as old as she you know somebody might think but of course i have to go to her discography because why not because we got to figure out if she's been active oh she did like i said well an endless summer vacation she was active and then dang she's put out a lot of albums my least been around since 2007 man you've longevity ain't even the word but um so yeah i would say this is her a single in 2023 because she put out an album endless summer vacation in its entirety this year when this come out august 18th 2023 which was uh 46 minutes and 32 seconds long when uh talking about her album and of course like i said flowers and river was a standouts if i go to her profile let me see
Starting point is 00:06:00 yeah flowers and jaded seems to be her top song from that album so anyways um pretty successful since still pretty successful supremely successful and that's why we're on that side tangent because her and niki was not on my bingo card of of famous people i think would have beef but at the end of day i need to know is that molly cyrus has a new single out title used to be young and supposedly she has some type of special on disney plus So Hulu, one of those. And so if you want to watch that, if you're a huge Miley Cyrus superfan and want to watch that,
