Pharrell Williams Responds to Backlash Over ‘G I R L’ Album Cover
Mega-producer Pharrell Williams is feeling the heat for neglecting to feature a black woman on the cover of his new album, titled simply “G I R L”.
The cover features Williams, 40. posing with three women — 1 Caucasian, 1 Hispanic and 1 LSLH. All four are clad in bathrobes and dark sunglasses.
Williams, who recently married a mixed race woman, said, “The woman I’m standing closest to, she is black and she’s been a friend of mine for a long time.”
I beg to differ. It is ignorant and racist to assume that people of mixed parentage are black. This is the type of backwards thinking that is reinforced by people who still believe in the archaic one drop rule.

Beyonce took home the imaginary Grammy Award for the worst hair and the worst performance of the night at the 2014 Grammys Sunday in Los Angeles. The 32-year-old mother of one opened up the 2014 Grammys with a forgettable lip sync performance of “Drunk In Love”. Her husband, the aging rapper Jay Z, couldn’t even save the performance. At times it appears the backing vocal track slowed down and sped up. Beyonce looked befuddled as she tried to keep in pace with the music. Many Twitter users questioned Beyonce’s sudden weight loss. It was rumored that Bey went on a “lemon juice diet” to prepare for last night’s performance.
