Michelle Williams Reacts To Twitter Trying to Cancel Destiny’s Child’s ‘Cater 2 U’ For Being a ‘Slavery’ Song

The “retroactive cancellation express” has pulled up to Destiny’s Child‘s door.

17 years after the peak of their ‘Destiny Fulfilled’ hit ‘Cater 2 U,’ the trio have learned the song is under scrutiny for lyrics some women deem demeaning while others suggest the Rodney Jerkins-produced track is anti-feminist and anti-progressive in its promotion of subservience.

As news of the unexpected backlash reached the desk of group member/‘Unexpected’ diva Michelle Williams, she took to Instagram to respond.

Hear her hilarious reaction inside:

The video above was lifted after swarms of social media users commented on how “problematic” a number of 90’s and 2000’s female R&B songs were.
