Feminist anthem

This song has been widely recognized as a feminist anthem. There is a difference between "self-empowerment anthem", "feminist anthem" and a song that "includes themes of female empowerment". For instance, Hollaback Girl is in the category of songs with feminist themes but is it the same as Fall in line? Clearly not. Fall in Line doesn't just 'include themes', the whole lyrics from the first line to end is directly about feminism. All of the reliable music sources described the song with this word. Here are some sources:

  1. Billboard (magazine): [1]
  2. USA Today: [2]
  3. Grammy Award: [3]
  4. HelloGiggles: [4]

@Cornerstonepicker: No. It is not WP:SYNT The conclusion IS explicitly stated by the source. Billboard, Rolling Stone and all of other reliable music sources used the exact word 'feminist anthem' to describe the song. What original research?? CerberaOdollam (talk) 11:01, 20 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
