Abstract

Noveliss’s track ‘Fear of a Black Mermaid’ was released on his Vagabond EP in November 2022, responding to a social media furore about the casting of Black performer Halle Bailey as the lead in Disney’s live action remake of its 1989 film The Little Mermaid. A self-produced music video for the song was also released in January 2023. The lyrics, music track and music video are reproduced in Shima as significant contributions to debates around racism, racial stereotypes and popular culture triggered by the film.

害怕黑美人鱼

诺维里斯的歌曲《害怕黑美人鱼》于2022年11月在他的Vagabond EP中发行，以回应社交媒体对黑人演员哈利·贝利在迪士尼翻拍1989年电影《小美人鱼》的真人版中担任女主角的愤怒。这首歌的自制音乐视频也于2023年1月发布。在《岛》中，歌词、歌曲和mv都被复制，这对电影引发的关于种族主义、种族刻板印象和流行文化的辩论做出了重大贡献。
