A Brief Note: Power and Art and Renewal

I am contemplating the timeliness of Kanye's new song "Power"...not so much in terms of what it means to him as an individual artist/being but how the shift it speaks to represents the dawning of a new era of art and creative thinking and living. Power is being redefined as it tries to recover from all it has destroyed. Meanwhile, the artists and creators of the world are being empowered to make the growing pains of all of this transitioning a little more bearable for us all. Oh the irony...exciting stuff, no?!?!? I suppose it's why I have been suffering from insomnia all summer...the good kind...the kind that keeps me up...where I create and breathe in others' creations and...dream about them all day long...

Speaking of dreams...

Beyonce on the Desperate Housewife (w/ Grammy's to boot)

"Why Don't You Love Me" - Beyoncé from Beyoncé on Vimeo.

Is this another installment of B's brand of scantily clad, 21st century feminism?
Are we to be empowered by this display?
Not hating at all...this is a genuine question...
What are your thoughts?
I will share mine at length once I have lived with it a little longer. As for now, I think I am living for this video! This is of course minus my cultural critique hat as I simply tap into my inner drag queen. YE$ MS. BBBBBBBBBBB! LOL!
