Featured on her album “Climb”, the lyrically and musically powerful anthem paints the message of black women protecting themselves and uplifting each other. The single comes at a time when womanhood has been celebrated more than ever with movements such as #MeToo which bring attention to sexual harassment in the entertainment industry and workplace. On the other spectrum, black women specifically have been glorified more than ever with movies such as “Black Panther” which showcase the all black female cast as strong, intellectual and brave. These advancements are a sign that being a black woman is no longer considered as a crutch but a blessing and the song “Black Woman” only adds to that triumph.
