Hmmmmm, so the white band that has shown the upmost respect and love for Blues and American black music ever makes a song about the horrors of slavery and the disgusting mindset of slave owners? They must be endorsing slavery then!
… Some people really can´t read, cant they? Brown sugar is not only a fuckin awesome song, but it´s also (quite clearly) a song mocking and denouncing slavery. The Stones (and a lot of musicians, ehem, G´N´R for example) have made a lot of songs making fun of people that are bigoted or dumb (Miss You, One In A Million) and the fact that some people interpret those songs as supporting sexism, racism or any similar bigotry is dumbfounding. Oh and Bitch is also very good. – FantanoClone May 20 2023
