well what's TINASHE problem?
Cause everyone wants to funk her including the byatches
Just goes to show how stupid labels are,and the fact they don't actually know females.
Being too pretty,and even worst,too pretty AND lightskin can hurt you in RNB.
It's a fine line between women finding you attractive and wanting to be you.
Vs women hating you,and both women and men thinking "she think she the shyt,shes overated,and only got where she's at because she's pretty and lightskin".
The thin line is whether or not women relate to your story,and find you relateable as a person,or got to watch you come from the bottom and really grind.
Keyshia Cole=relateable red bone,Tinashe is not a relateable redbone to black women at large,through her music or personality.Women ain't just rooting for any ol pretty lightskin chick.Why?because alot of the times "shes overated,and only got where she's at because she's pretty and lightskin" is very accurate more times than not.
But its a shame for the lightskin women who that is not the case for. But the labels created this problem for women in the industry. Its almost like being a white rapper,you had to go through a little more to prove yourself to the fans that mattered{black male fans}. Not sure why labels think black men are important as a demographic in female rnb or hiphop though,explains the horrible talent pool over the years in both,as image became more important.
