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

[Yehuda]

She's a mullato to me. I could mistaken her as a Moroccan

Somehow light skin women saying they were picked on for being too light or light skin is valid around here, but if it's the other way around. It's a problem

I mean, she might have got picked on as a child for being light skinned, but then again, WHO doesn't get picked on as a child?

I'm sure the boys stopped bullying her once she got into puberty

My sisters are darker than me, they said they used to get laughed at in elementary school

Listen to the underground, then you will find them. Of course you won't find many in mainstream because they are trying to cater to a certain audience.

No, it's nothing so specific. It's like how you can generally tell if a black person is directly from Africa vs. a black American. Does that make sense?

At those pretending that Tinashe doesn't look biracial you all need to quit it.

Her body is, , but she is clearly the product of at least one white parent. Trying to pretend otherwise is

I get what you're saying...and I use to think that...until I met a few Nigerians who looked like my uncles LOL.

Blacks are extremely diverse in Africa...sure...most AA's don't look like Sundanese Dinka Tribesman....but many of us do look exactly like some of the folks in West Africa.

The darker singers happen sing better.

Only Light Skins holding it down were Candi Staton and Martha Walsh, and Im sure they had two black parents.

I see you separating American blacks from the rest.

I know this recent gen sucks but lets not act like we didnt buck hard against white supremacy throughout our history.

I'm saying that American blacks and blacks who suffered through colonialism (which is almost all of us) got the most damaging and violent forms of white supremacy. I'm not separating anyone. No one is better than the other.

It's 2015 and the way technology is today u can go get the prettiest non singing red bone with long curly hair and have her lip singing over tracks and market her looks more than her skills..

Music today on the commercial level is a joke....

 

[marcuz]

But that was the plan. Make these women the new version of black women. Black woman 2.0.

oh shut the fukk up. yall dont have a leg to stand on anymore. BW promote IR couplings harder than any BM. yall have begun contributing to all these biracials being born

Look at the demographics of a Beyonce concert. Almost all cacs and nonblacks. All these lighter skinned artists with mainstream success achieved it by having a large cac fanbase, this is why many of them are silent or indifferent towards Black issues because they don't want to mess up their money.

I disagree, most black artist usually have a large black fan before the white fan base comes in. You think white people were fkin with Destiny's Child like that? All those white people came after they had a strong hold of their large black fan base.

You are extremely dense.

Let's be obtuse and act like those girls don't have high percentages of white DNA. This all different colors shtick is silly and disingenuous. A huge portion of those "different" colors are due to white admixture.
