I pointed out that the accusations of egocentrism or self centeredness are usually not levied equally on White artists and that I believe it&rsquo;s part of an overall narrative of &ldquo;bringing down people a notch&rdquo;, or &ldquo;putting them in their places&rdquo;. It was an intuitive observation and not one based on any kind of objective measurement. Today, I ran the searches in the screen capture above and lo and behold, look at the results. I am aware these are still not scientific proofs of anything (google algorithms are secret and I cannot vouch that all results are 100% accurate) but yet, it is quite telling that the word ego seems to be\u00a0disproportionally\u00a0associated to Black women. The over the top amount of results for Rihanna also seems quite telling and I cannot dissociate these results from the overall way media has treated her so far.<\/p>\n<p>Now, I am aware I am not conclusively proving anything here, but I do believe this is an interesting angle in the way media treats Women of Color and which attributes get associated with their success.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday I was peeved by what I perceived to be an over\u00a0emphasis\u00a0in media on the egos of Artists of Color.
