"Body Count" Is My New Feminist Anthem From Jessie Reyez, Normani and Kehlani




Jessie Reyez gifted the world with "Body Count" on May 4, yet she's re-gifting the track with a woman-only remix days soon after her incredible VMAs performance on the PUSH Artist Stage. Right now, with Normani and Kehlani hopping on the track, its feminist message is stronger than ever.


The theme of "Body Count" is explicitly clear: no one should be judged by how several people they are or have been intimate with. Our bodies, our choice, and as Jessie sings in both the original and the remix, "We gon' love who we wanna love."


Normani necessitates respect for girls on her verse, instantly giving fans a rallying cry they'll habitually attribute to Normani (2018).


But "Body Count" is just as much about independence as it is about sexual liberation, with Normani suggesting that just because you're hooking up, that doesn't mean you have to date -- and fans felt that, too.


Jessie's most iconic line on the original "Body Count" was undoubtedly "I dodge d*ck on the day-to-day and Kehlani brings a new perspective to the lyric as an out queer artist. Fans were GAGGED that she went there, however we stan.


Kehlani also tears apart the senseless expectation that boys should have high body counts while a woman's should be low, which fans applauded on Twitter.


Most critical, it's so refreshing to be able to see three confident ladies come with each other with one cohesive, empowering message. Jessie, Normani and Kehlani celebrated the release with each other with the most uplifting messages, making "Body Count" a feminist anthem all-around.
