Me'shell "She been to Cuba..."

In "Pocketbook" by Me'Shell N'degeocello she says "She been to Cuba and she don't watch TV". I was just watching a special on Cuba on the Discovery channel and I was wondering if this statement means she's pro Cuban government?

I think it was meant to show the girl she's singing about is enlightened and very modern same what fickle/trendy west coast thinking, it was meant to be kind of funny.
although at the start of "hot night" on the same album the girl talking says something like "I use to be part of the communist party" so maybe your right.

Actually she is talking about the girl in the song - her girlfriend(ex) off and on: Rebeecca -- But I would like to think the girl in the song she was speaking of was me. batting eyes lol

Well in the beginning of "Hot Night", I believe the woman speaking is Angela Davis.
