Jorja Smith latest song, Beautiful Little Fools, is filled with sultry feels and feminist wander that speaks to every young women and adolescent girl. Inspired after watching the Great Gatsby at sixteen Jorja wrote these words that questions the state of womanhood. Beautiful Little Fools will have you feeling again, with a heated new wave of feminism.
The nineteen year old singer poetically breaks down the plight of our generation and past generations as well and that addresses this period in Women History. She looks at womanhood and what our role in society is, and highlights how common for it is for us to fall into societal traps of beauty and standards. We loose our grip of reality and therefore ourselves.
Jorja sings that we are becoming a beautiful little Hollywood perception. Do you agree? The end of her song seems to believe so, but what do you think? This certainly raises questions about what it is that we are teaching our girls. What they should find important. But I argue that we are more than just beautiful little fools, we have so much more to contribute, and we aren't just born to be adored. Still the nature of this song and its lyrics are very thought provoking. Check it out for yourself.
