Will we ever see another black female artist that actually looks like a black woman?

[John Mayer]

Yeah like they are to Idris Elba, Denzel Washington, David Banner, etc.? If there is one thing a dark-skinned black male doesn't have to worry about it's female attention.

Jesse Williams is still more popular than them.


Black women love Chris Brown and August Alsina both light skinned men
and we can't forget about them light skinned dudes on Empire

I think it has more to do with the mainstreamification of black culture. in the nineties and eighties when underground black music was only popular amongst other black peeps, most female stars looked remotely like the average black woman. Now because black genres and to a certain extent black culture has become mainstream and uve got Stevens and johns going to Dr dre concerts, most female stars now have to appeal to a broader and more diverse demograph. Hence ambiguous/light skinned black women like Beyoncé and ciara are now popular. It's more of a corporate decision than a reflection of the black community.

But what happens when real life imitates art?

When we want kids that dont resemble us or put certain ladies on a pedestal depending how light she is

have you ever left usa? because its not like that in the majority of the world

Yes I have, and there's no real difference. White supremacy is global. Different countries just have different versions of the same shyt. We have different labels for mixed folks here in the west. A mixed person can check "biracial" on the census all they want, it doesn't stop them from being classified as black. This lesson has been taught throughout history, I don't know why folk haven't gotten it yet.

Beyonce, Nicki, Rihanna and Ciara dont have white parents..... they don't even have white grandparents

never speak when you don't know,

rihana has a white grandparent on her fathers side
beyonce has a white grandfather
nicki minaj also has a non black grandparent.

Then all those light skinned Habesha folk aint Ethiopian and should be expelled from Africa

You need to get your eyes checked if you think they look alike.

And those light skinned(a majority are brown skin) Abyssinian highlanders have been in Ethiopia and Eritrea for thousands of years. So stfup about us being foreigners the only reason why we are lighter than the average cushyte is because we've lived in the highlands for most of our history

 

[Kuwka_Atcha_Ratcha]

This is the box that's open by entertaining this "mixed people ain't black" bullshyt. Where's the cut off line? Ciara clearly is mixed somewhere in her family, so why couldn't she claim mixed and not black? Those questions aren't to you necessarily, just to those who buy into the "mixed ain't black" nonsense.They're still mixed tho. People like say that mixed people aren't black. You've got to be consistent bruh.

if mixed is black, then this woman is a black woman. do you see how ridiculous you sound
