Michelle Williams Responds to Backlash for Destiny's Child Song 'Cater 2 U'

17 years after the Destiny’s Child song “Cater 2 U” was released, there are people calling for the song to be canceled.

The song is currently a trending topic on Twitter and people say that it should be reclassified as a “slave” song. Some of the lyrics in the song are: “My life would be purposeless without you,” “Whatever your desire, I’ll supply ya,” “When you come home late, tap me on my shoulder, I’ll roll over,” and “Baby, I heard you, I’m here to serve you.”

This isn’t the first time that Michelle has addressed backlash against the song, but this time, she decided to take a comedic approach to her response.

Michelle took to Instagram and used a cartoon filter to turn into a character named Merleen.

“My name is Merleen and I heard that y’all wanna cancel the song ‘Cater2U’ by Destiny’s Child? Oh honey, you didn’t discern who you were catering to and you gave your little pearls to swine, don’t be mad at Destiny’s Child!” she said in the clip.

The caption for the post said, “I know it was all jokes but Merleen still wants to add her commentary!!”
