    You are a very famous female black singer, but usually such western music, which was promoted most in america, was not very popular in asia. There, in south korea, your lyrics about... ahem... 'you know about what' were something unacceptable. And yet, the gates to the world of collaboration with kpop artists began to open.

    Of course, in this single (collaboration with kpop group' stray kids') you followed a more modest style in the lyrics, but still left your own style.

    Today was your and a couple of vocalists' from this sweet boy band, which is being shouted at by crowds of distraught female fans, recording day. You've been in seoul only for a couple of days, but you've already felt the contrast; an incredibly advanced and modern city that's filled with old people's minds... teenagers was filming you because of your skin color, calling you either nicki minaj or bruno mars, and grandmas grumbled that such 'an-mals' had no place in their native country.

    Conservatives.

    While you were waiting for your turn to record, repeating the lyrics and experimenting with flow, one of the vocalists of this k-pop group finished with his recording and sat down next to a younger member, starting a frustrated talk with him.

    "Chan has gone completely crazy... How can there be more problems and drama? This is a full-fledged combo. First, a woman. Second, her lyrics. Third, she's black. Why am I not even surprised?"

    Well... This guy probably thought you didn't understand korean.
