The current it girl of music has been called out for her so
called “provocative” dance moves. She is currently dealing with bullets from
feminist groups who accuse her of polluting the mind of young girls with her
performance persona
Babes Wodumo has the most played song on radio and people
have caught on feelings. Feminists called her out for her dance moves on Wololo
claiming that she is not being a good role model to young girls and that she is
insinuating that for a woman to be successful she has to flash her body to men
and that the likes of Babes draw back women’s struggle for emancipation. At least
some people have come to Babes rescue saying that woman have every right to be
sexual agents and not worry about the gaze of men, the most important thing is
how it makes her feel
.
It is expected that when you become a sensation you will
always have people firing at you, we just hope Babes gracefully dodges every
bullet and do her cause clearly people like what she is doing. If it was just
about the body then the song wouldn’t have been a radio hit, that means her fans
appreciate her art and are not just lusting.
As far as the comparison between her and the legendary
Lebo Mathosa goes, we say she still has a long way to go, we have discovered she’s
got the moves but now she has to show us the voice and the balls.Remember Lebo did things that were taboo in society at the
time and she fully committed to her craft and never apologized for it. But we
do hopes Babes takes us all the way to earn her spot amongst the legendary.
