Saturday Night Live Shows How Ridiculous the Controversy Around Beyoncé's New Song Really Is
Since Beyoncé dropped her newest single, ‘Formation’, people have been engaged in debate. A lot of people have been complaining that Beyoncé’s references to Black history and culture in her song, video and Super Bowl halftime show didn’t belong in such a ‘family friendly’ broadcast like Super Bowl 50. Supporters of the song have pointed out that Beyoncé is, in fact, Black. As this Saturday Night Live sketch points out, it’s not really that shocking that a Black woman would make reference to who she is and her heritage in her music. It’s actually pretty silly to make such a big deal about it.
