While early on, artists like like Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg used pole dancing as a \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZXc39hT8t4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">means for objectification\u003c/a>, within a decade it was socially acceptable enough for the decidedly non-edgy Enrique Iglesias to include in his video for \"\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vHJAUuicC0Q\">Dirty Dancer\u003c/a>.\" In 2013, Bruno Mars put pole dancing at the center of a love triangle in the \"\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AHDtXqjgEj4\">Gorilla\u003c/a>\" video, and, a year later, \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fk1ZO_980DI\">Ne-Yo\u003c/a> put dancers in mundane, everyday settings as a suggestion that it was something even middle-aged housewives and mousey librarians could enjoy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then came Rihanna and Beyoncé including poles in their respective videos for \"\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehcVomMexkY\">Pour It Up\u003c/a>\" and \"\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZ12_E5R3qc\">Partition\u003c/a>,\" and ideas shifted about just who pole dancing was for. Their reframing of pole dancing, from entertainment for men to empowerment for women, not only opened doors for Cardi B but others—FKA Twigs recently used it to literally elevate her contemporary artistry to new, trippy heights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YkLjqFpBh84&t=111s\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reality TV, too, has done a lot to normalize pole dancing. HBO's \u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G_String_Divas\">\u003cem>G String Divas\u003c/em>\u003c/a> started to de-stigmatize the job back in 2000, and today, \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TD-VzLfHZXQ\">\u003cem>Beyond The Pole\u003c/em>\u003c/a> shows the every day lives of professional dancers in Atlanta.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it's \u003cem>Keeping Up With The Kardashians \u003c/em>that did the most to take pole dancing mainstream. When 2007's Season 1 first showed a pole in Kris and Bruce's bedroom, it seemed risqué and over-the-top. When then-tweens Kendall and Kylie played on it—prompting Robin Antin to tell Kylie she was a \"future Pussycat Doll\"—it simultaneously caused a mountain of controversy and somehow made a pole at home seem somewhat mundane. By 2014, Kris, Kim and their friends were taking a \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Gqb7ECJnoA\">pole dancing class\u003c/a> on the show together—a relatively new form of exercise that has since boomed in popularity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The pinnacle of pole dancing's mainstream acceptance arrives September 13 with the movie \u003cem>Hustlers\u003c/em>, starring Jennifer Lopez, Constance Wu and Cardi B as a group of strip club employees banding together to \"turn the tables on their Wall Street clients.\" The movie, based on a \u003ca href=\"https://www.thecut.com/2015/12/robin-hood-strippers-scores-c-v-r.html#_ga=2.96829916.2122431926.1556836402-1366781981.1518059390\">\u003cem>New York Magazine\u003c/em> article\u003c/a> about real-life dancers who swindled their richest clients out of thousands of dollars, is something that Nicki, the dancer from San Francisco, looks forward to seeing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Pole dancing really is an art form when it's done well,\" she says. \"It is getting easier to see that dancing isn't just some seedy, taboo thing, as more women in the spotlight are embracing it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She pauses, thinks about her request for anonymity, and adds: \"When we get to the point where I can use my real name in an article like this, \u003cem>that\u003c/em> will really be something.\"\u003c/p>\n\n",

While early on, artists like like Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg used pole dancing as a \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZXc39hT8t4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">means for objectification\u003c/a>, within a decade it was socially acceptable enough for the decidedly non-edgy Enrique Iglesias to include in his video for \"\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vHJAUuicC0Q\">Dirty Dancer\u003c/a>.\" In 2013, Bruno Mars put pole dancing at the center of a love triangle in the \"\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AHDtXqjgEj4\">Gorilla\u003c/a>\" video, and, a year later, \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fk1ZO_980DI\">Ne-Yo\u003c/a> put dancers in mundane, everyday settings as a suggestion that it was something even middle-aged housewives and mousey librarians could enjoy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then came Rihanna and Beyoncé including poles in their respective videos for \"\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehcVomMexkY\">Pour It Up\u003c/a>\" and \"\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZ12_E5R3qc\">Partition\u003c/a>,\" and ideas shifted about just who pole dancing was for. Their reframing of pole dancing, from entertainment for men to empowerment for women, not only opened doors for Cardi B but others—FKA Twigs recently used it to literally elevate her contemporary artistry to new, trippy heights.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/YkLjqFpBh84'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/YkLjqFpBh84'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>Reality TV, too, has done a lot to normalize pole dancing. HBO's \u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G_String_Divas\">\u003cem>G String Divas\u003c/em>\u003c/a> started to de-stigmatize the job back in 2000, and today, \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TD-VzLfHZXQ\">\u003cem>Beyond The Pole\u003c/em>\u003c/a> shows the every day lives of professional dancers in Atlanta.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it's \u003cem>Keeping Up With The Kardashians \u003c/em>that did the most to take pole dancing mainstream. When 2007's Season 1 first showed a pole in Kris and Bruce's bedroom, it seemed risqué and over-the-top. When then-tweens Kendall and Kylie played on it—prompting Robin Antin to tell Kylie she was a \"future Pussycat Doll\"—it simultaneously caused a mountain of controversy and somehow made a pole at home seem somewhat mundane. By 2014, Kris, Kim and their friends were taking a \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Gqb7ECJnoA\">pole dancing class\u003c/a> on the show together—a relatively new form of exercise that has since boomed in popularity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The pinnacle of pole dancing's mainstream acceptance arrives September 13 with the movie \u003cem>Hustlers\u003c/em>, starring Jennifer Lopez, Constance Wu and Cardi B as a group of strip club employees banding together to \"turn the tables on their Wall Street clients.\" The movie, based on a \u003ca href=\"https://www.thecut.com/2015/12/robin-hood-strippers-scores-c-v-r.html#_ga=2.96829916.2122431926.1556836402-1366781981.1518059390\">\u003cem>New York Magazine\u003c/em> article\u003c/a> about real-life dancers who swindled their richest clients out of thousands of dollars, is something that Nicki, the dancer from San Francisco, looks forward to seeing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Pole dancing really is an art form when it's done well,\" she says. \"It is getting easier to see that dancing isn't just some seedy, taboo thing, as more women in the spotlight are embracing it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The film both documents the performance and sheds light on the eight months of work—four months of putting together the run of show and learning the choreography, followed by four months rehearsals—that led up to her headlining slot at Coachella in 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the two-hour film, extended sections of the performance are intercut with behind-the-scenes clips of Beyoncé conceptualizing the show alongside the 200-plus artists—dancers, musicians, creative directors, technical staff—who helped make it possible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As momentous as the performance was in real time, and in the days that followed, its shadow has only lengthened in the year since. As the first black woman to headline Coachella—probably America's most-visible music festival—Beyoncé set out to make a deliberate statement about black beauty, culture and fortitude. From the orchestral sampling of Southern greats like C-Murder and Juvenile to the incorporation of classic marching band fight songs, the detail woven into the performance, much of it native to the culture of historically black colleges and universities—HBCUs—was a celebration that now doubles, in the document of it, as an introduction to that culture's traditions: the big football game, the drumline battles, the homecoming concert, the steppers, the dancing dolls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To do so authentically, Beyoncé's creative team enlisted the help of marching band members from across the country to kick up the flavor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I wanted a black orchestra,\" Bey says in the film (and in an interlude on \u003cem>Homecoming: The Live Album\u003c/em>). \"I wanted the steppers. I needed different characters, I didn't want us all doing the same thing. And the amount of swag is just limitless. Like, the things that these young people can do with their bodies and the music they can play. The drum rolls and the haircuts and the bodies... it's just not right. It's just so much damn swag.\" Beyoncé commends the insurmountable passion and charisma of her band, calling the young performers \"the heartbeat of the show.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To find her black orchestra, Beyoncé and her team enlisted the services of \u003ca href=\"https://www.drumlinelive.com/\">DRUMLine Live\u003c/a>, and sought out black musicians on an individual basis. Over the weeks and months of rehearsal leading up to the show, she trusted the instincts of her assembled band to incorporate their swag in ways that were most natural to their college experiences.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At NPR Music, the home of the \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/series/tiny-desk-concerts/\">Tiny Desk\u003c/a>, we know that any good lead vocalist is only as good as their support. NPR Music spoke to members of Beyoncé's commends, the insurmountable passion and charisma of her band, calling the band—some of them Tiny Desk Concert alums—about their road to Beychella, the view from the bleachers and the two-fold legacy they're now part of.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>These interviews have been edited and condensed for clarity. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003ch3>Ari O'Neal, guitarist, 25,\u003cbr>\nUniversity of Maryland\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_111232\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 304px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-111232\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2019/04/Screen-Shot-2019-04-22-at-12.15.59-PM.png\" alt=\"Tayo Kuku Jr. /Courtesy of the artist\" width=\"304\" height=\"306\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2019/04/Screen-Shot-2019-04-22-at-12.15.59-PM.png 304w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2019/04/Screen-Shot-2019-04-22-at-12.15.59-PM-160x161.png 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 304px) 100vw, 304px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tayo Kuku Jr. /Courtesy of the artist\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On getting the call\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It was on my birthday—December 11, 2017—and I was flown out the very next morning at 6 o'clock and I had rehearsal that same day. I literally got off the plane, went to the hotel room, dropped my stuff off and the car was already waiting outside for us to go. I was looking at all these women that I had seen in her concerts before and I was like, 'Oh my God. Do they know me? 'Cause these are like legends right here.

And then, to see afterwards how many people could relate, I was thinking, 'Man, I guess I should've expected that,' because so many people relate to this culture. To see all the positive feedback made me feel so good. It really reminded me how deep we are out here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There's a prayer that I will always say before I perform:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\u003cem>\"God, give me the strength to hold around your heart the strength to hold us up, allow us to feel blessed, embody and make us a great show.

And Bey was talking to her creative team and when we started playing, she just looked up and was like, 'I like that, I love that. Can we add it to the show?'

I've been doing this since 5th grade, you know, so once you learn the show, it becomes part of you, it becomes second nature. The actual movements were pretty much easier than what we did on the field, so it just took repetition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The hard part was learning that much music. Bey, she has albums for days, it was over 40 songs and there's no break. So, learning the cuts and hits with each song, that took time to get the muscle memory. And then Beyoncé, she always starts on her right, but in the band world, you start on the left side, rock to the left. So, with Beyoncé, we had to switch it up, everything right foot first, every time. That was a big adjustment.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On the feeling onstage\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The first weekend, the anticipation was super high—we got there early and just waited all day to perform. That first walk over to the stage, the energy was through the roof, people screaming, smiling ear to ear to ear. And then onstage, even before the music, when it was all blacked out, you could hear us on stage, being loud obnoxious and crunk, when I tell you everyone was excited... It was wild! And then once you see the sea of people, that took energy to a whole 'nother level.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I was \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/Bh4BPHphauR/\">higher up on the bleachers\u003c/a>, so I could see what I felt like was all the way back. My first experience seeing something that big, with that many people, was Barack Obama's first inauguration [in 2009], that's the last time I saw that many people in one place.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong> On why this performance has lingered in the minds of the public\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think it's important because, like she said in the documentary, she always wanted to attend a HBCU. Growing up in Texas, seeing the tradition and not being able to be part of the tradition, I think she felt she had an obligation to show the world black people are beautiful, and that HBCUs are a unique factor to the education system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think it opened the eyes to a lot of individuals who may have not known what HBCUs are or what they're about and the culture they have. That's a lot of knowledge that was put on to people. If we didn't have them, when they first started, we wouldn't be here because, you know, back in the day, those were the only colleges black people could attend because of segregation. It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience that everyone should try to do if they can.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I know it touched so many people, from Michelle Obama to someone across the world who might be inspired to go to a HBCU because of Beyoncé and the window she opened. This moved the culture forward, and it showed that black is still beautiful and we need to take our place and be present at times like these, even when that's not an easy thing to do.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">\u003cem>Copyright 2019 NPR.

The limitless swag.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fans of \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/artists/19230778/beyonce\">Beyoncé \u003c/a>are reliving the pinnacle performance of her career once again with \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/04/17/714248612/beyonce-surprise-drops-live-coachella-album-netflix-doc-now-streaming\">\u003cem>Homecoming\u003c/em>\u003c/a>, the concert documentary released on Netflix last week. The film both documents the performance and sheds light on the eight months of work—four months of putting together the run of show and learning the choreography, followed by four months rehearsals—that led up to her headlining slot at Coachella in 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the two-hour film, extended sections of the performance are intercut with behind-the-scenes clips of Beyoncé conceptualizing the show alongside the 200-plus artists—dancers, musicians, creative directors, technical staff—who helped make it possible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As momentous as the performance was in real time, and in the days that followed, its shadow has only lengthened in the year since. As the first black woman to headline Coachella—probably America's most-visible music festival—Beyoncé set out to make a deliberate statement about black beauty, culture and fortitude. From the orchestral sampling of Southern greats like C-Murder and Juvenile to the incorporation of classic marching band fight songs, the detail woven into the performance, much of it native to the culture of historically black colleges and universities—HBCUs—was a celebration that now doubles, in the document of it, as an introduction to that culture's traditions: the big football game, the drumline battles, the homecoming concert, the steppers, the dancing dolls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To do so authentically, Beyoncé's creative team enlisted the help of marching band members from across the country to kick up the flavor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The actual movements were pretty much easier than what we did on the field, so it just took repetition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The hard part was learning that much music. Bey, she has albums for days, it was over 40 songs and there's no break. So, learning the cuts and hits with each song, that took time to get the muscle memory. And then Beyoncé, she always starts on her right, but in the band world, you start on the left side, rock to the left. So, with Beyoncé, we had to switch it up, everything right foot first, every time. That was a big adjustment.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On the feeling onstage\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The first weekend, the anticipation was super high—we got there early and just waited all day to perform. That first walk over to the stage, the energy was through the roof, people screaming, smiling ear to ear to ear. And then onstage, even before the music, when it was all blacked out, you could hear us on stage, being loud obnoxious and crunk, when I tell you everyone was excited... It was wild! And then once you see the sea of people, that took energy to a whole 'nother level.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I was \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/Bh4BPHphauR/\">higher up on the bleachers\u003c/a>, so I could see what I felt like was all the way back. My first experience seeing something that big, with that many people, was Barack Obama's first inauguration [in 2009], that's the last time I saw that many people in one place.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong> On why this performance has lingered in the minds of the public\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think it's important because, like she said in the documentary, she always wanted to attend a HBCU. Growing up in Texas, seeing the tradition and not being able to be part of the tradition, I think she felt she had an obligation to show the world black people are beautiful, and that HBCUs are a unique factor to the education system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think it opened the eyes to a lot of individuals who may have not known what HBCUs are or what they're about and the culture they have. That's a lot of knowledge that was put on to people. If we didn't have them, when they first started, we wouldn't be here because, you know, back in the day, those were the only colleges black people could attend because of segregation. It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience that everyone should try to do if they can.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

On April 17, 2019 (you can go ahead and flake on your friends now), the streaming giant is bringing us to the front row and behind the scenes of Queen Bey's revolutionary Coachella performance, which went down in history last year as the first time a woman of color headlined the festival. It also went down in history as the first time millions of people simultaneously decided they just had to have a yellow sorority hoodie.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This all-access pass of a documentary—titled \u003cem>Homecoming\u003c/em>— promises to be an \"in-depth look from creative concept to cultural movement.\" Anyone who remembers Beyoncé's 2013 HBO documentary, \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaykVWfJejA\">\u003cem>Life Is But A Dream\u003c/em>\u003c/a>, knows how impressive and riveting it is to watch Beyonce at work, indulging all her Virgo perfectionist tendencies (how else do you think every \"t\" gets crossed and every \"i\" dotted?). But there's something \u003cem>Homecoming\u003c/em> has that \u003cem>Life Is But A Dream\u003c/em> doesn't: Blue Ivy showing her mom and a bevy of dancers how to perfect the art of the hair flip.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
