The bi society.
Recently sandwiched between Yung Joe's "It's Goin' Down" and Nelly Furtado's "Promiscuous" on Billboard's top R&B/Hip Hop Singles Sales chart was an equally racy romp, "She Bi," by rapper Ice Mizzle.Aided no doubt by its salacious title and frisky video, which features sexually adventurous women jockeying for space on Mizzle's lap, "She Bi" is the newest addition to a growing pop music trend: the straight male fascination with switch-hitting ladies.
The roots of these odes can be traced to Living Color's succinctly titled "Bi," with lyrics such as "My lover told me, well, that she's bi..../ She said baby, baby, don't you cry/ 'Cause the one I am with, you've been seeing on the side."
JC Chasez carried the torch with "Some Girls (Dance With Women)," proclaiming a profound desire to "get in with" those girls who "dance with women, knowing that it gives them attention."
