(ambient jungle noises)

(gasps loudly) Is this...

(squealing and chuckling) Yes! Queen!

Oh, is this "Anaconda"?

I really hope this is the fart parody.

(laughing) No, this is not happening.

So this is happening.

I'm censoring this for myself.

- ♪ Unless you got buns, hon ♪ - Mm-mm.

♪ Boy toy named Troy ♪

My name is in this though-- "a boy toy named Troy."

Me and all my friends, when we saw this,

we were just like, "Whaaat?"

♪ ...palace, bought me Alexander McQueen ♪

I have no idea what to think about this.

♪ Real, real, real ♪

Bananas on a turntable, 'cause that makes so much sense.

People always talk about this video.

I've been trying to avoid watching it for a reason.

Oh my god. I don't feel comfortable watching this with anyone

except myself.

♪ By the way, what he say? ♪

♪ He can tell I ain't missing no meals ♪

♪ Come through and [bleep] 'em in my automobile ♪

Ew, stop! Why are you-- this is-- no!

(sarcastically) Wow, that was such subtle

advertisement placement.

♪ My anaconda don't... ♪

(sings along) ♪ My anaconda don't want none ♪

- ♪ Unless you got buns, hon ♪ - (school bell rings)

Mom, I'm censoring myself.

- (mouths along) - ♪ Look at her butt ♪

It's not her real butt. No one's butt can be that big.

I never made it this far into the video, so...

- (chuckles) - ♪ Look at her butt ♪

- ♪ Look at, look at, look at ♪ - This song is great.

♪ This dude named Michael ♪

Yeah, this is totally how people work out.

♪ ...bigger than a tower, I ain't talking about Eiffel's ♪

See, kids shouldn't be hearing that one lyric right there.

Apparently I'm working out wrong, because apparently

you're supposed to wear less clothes when you work out.

Ever since this video came out, the world has been changed.

Like, this is all anyone talks about.

♪ Look at her butt ♪

- (mouths along) - ♪ My anaconda don't... ♪

♪ My anaconda don't... ♪ It's so catchy though.

- ♪ ...don't want none ♪ - Ew.

Wait, was that the guy who sang, "I like big butts"?

This is different than Kids React. I was watching Frozen things.

Now I'm watching Nicki Minaj butt-naked.

- ♪ Yeah ♪ - Oh, Drake.

(Minaj laughs maniacally)

What was that?

- (imitates laughter) - ♪ This one is for my bitches ♪

♪ With a fat ass in the [bleep] club ♪

I don't even know why this part is even necessary.

Some people have The Rolling Stones and The Beatles.

We have "Anaconda" and Nicki Minaj.

♪ [bleep] you if you skinny bitches, what? Kyuh! ♪

I'm a skinny bitch.

♪ I got a big fat ass (echoing) ♪

It's pretty well known, Nicki. You don't need to tell us.

I should have brought holy water today.

(laughing) Oh my god.

Ew, too much ass. Stop. (chuckles)

Drake, have you no shame?

I'm overwhelmed. I'm overwhelmed.

That brought me a lot of joy right there, heh-heh-heh.

Was it absolutely necessary? You couldn't find anything else?

Butts became so big this year.

Like, literally.

♪ (punk rock music) ♪

(Finebros) So what do you think of Nicki Minaj's new song

- and music video? - I can't lie. It's very catchy.

It's amazing... for obvious reasons.

I will say I enjoyed it a little bit.

It's a thing that most people my age that are guys would like.

There's only one word that can describe that video truly,

and that is "booty."

So much booty.

It's gross. Like, it's all just ass.

I think it's portraying women in a really sexist way.

It sounds like every other pop song out there,

except for Sir Mix-a-Lot. I like him a lot.

At least it goes with the song. It's not just something random.

It actually correlates with what the song is about.

- (Finebros) What is this song about? - Butts?

An anaconda isn't a snake. (cracking up) That's all I know,

and I don't want to really say it.

"My [bleep] don't want it unless you got a booty."

No one's going to find you sexually appealing

if you do not have a big butt.

Maybe it's a feminist song about women being in power.

(Finebros) We have some lyrics that we'd love for you

- to read for us. - Fantastic. Let's do it.

(gasps)

"This dude named Michael used to ride motorcycles."

(laughing) This next line.

"[Bleep] bigger than a tower..." I highly doubt that.

"I ain't talkin' about Eiffel's."

"Real country..." blank, blank.

"Real country ass--" I'm not gonna--

I don't feel comfortable saying that word.

"...let me play with his rifle." (laughs) Oh my god.

"Now that bang bang bang.

I let him hit it 'cause he slang cocaine."

Always a great life choice when the reason

you're sleeping with someone is because they're a drug dealer.

"He toss my salad like his name Romaine."

(bursts out laughing)

(cracking up) "He toss my salad like his name is Romaine."

That's disgusting!

That one's clever, okay? I will give Nicki Minaj

or whoever her writers are that one.

It'd be nice if they were this clever with a positive message.

My church isn't gonna be happy about this. (cracks up)

(Finebros) A lot of women and younger girls

not only like her music but also are inspired by her story,

because she's this famous female rapper who came from nothing.

Is it okay for her to make a video like this

when she has that kind of influence on people?

Yes.

Just because people look up to you

doesn't mean that you should have to censor yourself

to be what people think that you need to be.

She's always been like that,

so why would you "controversial" about that now?

From coming from nothing to being this big--

Like, she's one of the biggest rappers in the world,

and she's a girl.

Showing herself as this character,

I don't think it'd be good in the long run.

It's not an okay song to put on the radio,

'cause she's talking about really explicit things.

Even though they might blur things out,

kids are still gonna watch the music video.

What are girls gonna think when they see this

if they want to aspire to be a rapper in the industry?

That they have to be naked

and make songs just about twerking to be successful?

(Finebros) What do you think it does to society

when so many female celebrities do things like this,

when males are rarely portrayed that way?

Yeah. It's-- oh. Ooh.

Ouch, that hit a nerve.

It kinda bothers in a sense to think,

why haven't I thought about this?

For me, it's normal now,

which also says something about our society, that it is normal

for a 14-year-old girl to see Nicki Minaj do that

and be like, "Oh, that's normal."

It just makes it even more okay for everybody else

to bring in girls and do that kind of stuff.

I can't even think of a woman

who has ever not taken off her clothes to become more famous.

Magazine covers, you see women in their bikinis.

And then you see men in suits, fully clothed.

And it's-- what is going on here?

How many boobs do you see in movies?

But how many [bleep] do you see? Like, none.

The only time you see a penis on Game of Thrones

is when they're about to die, and you see boobs all the time.

Is that fair? No.

Is it preferred? Maybe.

There are glimmers of hope here and there

where they have a strong female protagonist.

And it's really interesting.

I don't know if you guys heard of The Legend of Korra.

It's, like, a great show.

(Finebros) The flip-side to some of this controversy

is people claim that this video is a form of feminism.

What?

(Finebros) It's empowerment.

They're flaunting 'cause they want to,

and they can do what they want. What is your thoughts on that?

It makes sense. Like, I can't say that that's wrong.

I just don't think that way was the right way to show that.

From a guy's perspective,

it just looks like you're trying to get attention.

It's a yes-and-no question.

She's putting herself out there in ways

to expose herself the way she wants to,

and she's expressing herself. But at the same time she's not,

because she's oversexualized and she's objectified.

It's empowering, but it's objectifying. Pick one.

(Finebros) The term "rape culture" has been used

to describe our society, saying that we don't even realize

that we're surrounded with the objectification of women

across society, including the media,

which some say leads to the mistreatment of women.

It's so true. Like, I hate it.

I've done some research about ads and media

oversexualizing women, and it's all very subconscious.

We do have those preconceptions about women,

because it's what we get as an influence when we're young.

Men think it's just normal to have sex.

How about you teach young men and boys

to learn how to respect women?

I almost feel like it is because of these music videos

and culture that shows how these women have no clothes on.

And it just makes men feel like they're entitled to that body,

because they see it all the time.

The guys in my grade are, like--

a lot of the times when they have a relationship,

they always, like, be like, "Send nudes.

Send nudes 'cause you have to, 'cause I'm your boyfriend."

When they see something like that,

they're probably gonna be like, "Oh, if Drake can do that,

then I can ask for some girl to do it too,

because I'm just like Drake."

We allow it to be mainstream because we tend to like it so much,

I mean, especially when it comes to this close-to-nudity.

We're allowing it to the extent that it makes it so okay,

when it shouldn't be as okay as it is.

(Finebros) So back to the video itself,

some people think all this controversy is a big overreaction,

because the video is just fun

- and it's supposed to be a funny song. - It makes sense.

I'll be honest, the first time I heard it,

I was hysterically laughing.

I feel like people just overreact over nothing.

I guess, but I think there are better ways

she could've maybe gone about it.

I feel like if she didn't give the lap dance,

it would be kind of that sort of idea.

All the other times, there was no guys, right?

In the music video, it was all girls?

They're just thinking, "Oh, this is fun. I'm getting views.

This is becoming more popular. Awesome."

But they're not really realizing

that guys are still treating women as objects.

(Finebros) So finally, all this being said, yes or no--

is this video appropriate or not for Nicki Minaj to have made?

No.

I think it was appropriate.

(chuckling) No.

No.

For her, yeah, why not?

- No. - No.

I don't think that it would be correct to tell her
