If you're a dark skinned female music artist, you won't sell albums in America

[Zero]

Spoiler: Pick is big as hell

Granted they don't outsell the beyonces and the Rihanna's but both have been in the game since they were teens

High definition aint for everybody

nikkas are color struck more than ever....its sad, i blame rap and these white chicks and mixed chicks they put in videos

 

[Buzzed Lightyear]

Lauryn Hill?

 

[Azik]

 

[Remote]

1 album?

 

[Fade Runner 2049]

Serious question because I don't follow r and b, do the darker chicks u have in mind sing up to date current pop shyt or that old school sing your heart out shyt? Cause nobody tryna hear that nowadays

1 album?

That's all she dropped.

She didn't stop selling, she went crazy

If she dropped a good album today, she'd sell

 

[Big Blue]

Mary J. Blige? Is she considered dark skinned?
OP should get negged for forgetting Janet.

She can't ride off the Fugees because that shtick has passed.
So has that doo-wop shyt from her solo album.

So short of writing lines for Kanye (she wrote most of All Falls Down), I don't know if she'll duplicate it.

You're right.
I forgot about Mary J.

 

[Colicat]

Ledisi

 

[Kenny West]

Dunno why but her eyes lookin really creepy....almost demonic even

On topic though...isn't that one girl Syven a dark skin artist? She's doing well I think.

She ain't. Shorty can't get a release date with a Chris breezy cosign. Her debut album is in limbo. It's a shame cuz she's mad purty to me. Same with brandy.

Jennifer Hudson never did anything for me. She could really sing, had talent but I never liked her music.

Nobody is selling in 2015 as they did back then.

Your thread has been easily debunked.

Though your sentiment is correct. Mainstream America doesn't like dark skin.
