« MUSCLE MARYS » : Le clip du nouveau single tubesque de MNEK fusionne homoérotisme et body positivisme !

L’apparence physique est un sujet PRIMORDIAL et COMPLIQUÉ. On est en effet partagé entre la soumission aux diktats sociaux et publicitaires, l’impossibilité de s’y soumettre, l’affirmation de soi et ses goûts et fantasmes. MNEK en a fait une chanson et un clip : « MUSCLE MARYS... extrait de mon nouvel album BULLDOZER !! est disponible partout dès maintenant. Cette chanson et ce clip sont très intimes et touchent à la vulnérabilité ; ils abordent des sujets comme l'image corporelle, les enjeux politiques liés au corps, le désir de se sentir "assez" et ce cheminement sans fin pour apprendre à s'aimer, quelle que soit notre morphologie. C'est une question qui m'habite depuis toujours, mais je ne savais pas vraiment comment l'exprimer en chanson... jusqu'à aujourd'hui. Je n'aurais aussi jamais, au grand jamais, imaginé apparaître torse nu dans un clip. Je tiens à remercier tous ceux qui ont participé à ce projet ; cela compte énormément pour moi et j'en suis incroyablement fier. »
Muscle Marys in my DMs
It's been very interesting
I see them out every weekend
They been begging for attention
I know I'm thicker than them
But who cares? I'm richer than them
I know what I need in a man
Oh, now I'm your type
I told you that I'm not around tonight
Size me up with your eyes
But do you care for who I am inside?
If I'm working out or staying in
I need someone to love me through thick and thin
Want me for clout, text when you're twist
You shoot your shot, but, I'm sorry, you missed
You mastered the game, so you know the score
Loving you would only make me insecure
'Causе, see, my body is mine, your body is yours
Not the only one who wants to feel adorеd for me
Adored for me
You could be more to me
But if you're only skin deep, leave me
'Cause I don't need

It's been very interesting

They been begging for attention
I know I'm thicker than them
But who cares? I'm richer than them
I know what I need in a man
And it's bigger than you
You and the crew don't get along (We do)
You stay trying to find something wrong (Me too)
And I'm still shy when the lights are on 'cause of
Everything I don't want them to see
Every bit of insecurity
You're straight out of Men's Health magazine
What'd you want with me?
I know it shouldn't be a superficial thing
But I still internalize these little things, as a baby I heard
Someone like you isn't what I deserve
So this ain't gonna work 'cause
You mastered the game (Game), so you know the score (Score)
Loving you would only make me insecure
'Cause, see, my body is mine (Mine), your body is yours (Yours)
Not the only one who wants to feel adored for me
Adored for me
You could be more to me
But if you're only skin deep, meet me
Just ignore me
If you don't adore me
You could be more to me
But if you're only skin deep, leave me
'Cause I don't need

I know I'm thicker than them
But who cares I'm richer than them
I know what I need in a man
I'm getting
Better with the skin that I'm in
Ever since I went to the gym
But sometimes in the mirror
I still see who I was back then
Pinching all my handles again
I know they're doing the same thing
Maybe I'm no different than them
