I’m a black girl who also grew up in predominantly white environment and I say nah. I think more and more black people who grew up that way use this as an excuse to absolve them of their problematic shit and once again nah.

Yeah. I’m with you. I think its a general problem, in this gen, in that everything is RAW and REAL, but there seems to be a lack of earnestness and humility

Same. It’s bad, but if after it she’s like wow. White Supremacy is crazy and allowed me to act like a crazy asshole, then I don’t think I mind it.

There is a criticism about Key and Peele and Blackish and Dear White People, that had been floating around, and it’s something to the affect of its media by black people about black people FOR white people. And its a criticism I never fully understood until I listened to this 2 Dope Queens podcast. I did not even…

I mean these are horrible but does she go beyond this, does she truly examine it and herself and see that she felt this way due to white supremacy, and talk about how she moved beyond that because this is ugly but at the same time it’s kinda real. If I’m being honest, I recognize parts of my old self in the Jamirah…

This whole article is why this time last year I made a vow to stop hanging out with broke people, and when I tell you that shit CHANGED my life. Guuuuurlll.

Also I will say that I think a lot of these new people have no aspirations to stay in the game that long anyway. I know alot of young black artists, who are using hip hop and music as a jumping off point to do other things, (film, writing, directing, photography, etc) Because those fields are still so closed off to…

 Who the fuck decides they want to make a folksy album and calls up Timbaland, Danja, and Pharrell? And I think that Timbo and Pharrell are some of the greatest producers in music history regardless of genre, but their lane isn’t “making white people move with guitars.”

prior to 1965, America was a white country, a country for European people

You are truly the most annoying person. From your weird gross homo/biphobia on the bi sexual article to this fun silly little joke. Just go sit somewhere that isn’t here.

Honesty, only if Ryan or Ava do it. They are the only people who I think would understand the gravity and the importance of her and what that would me to black girls particularly what she means for dark skin girls. 

YES! Also that picture at the BET awards where Solange is sitting next to beyonce and Solo is giving her the hardest side eye.

When they all went out to dinner together. I was like

Honestly. Whenever Kim is brought up over there. Always.

This gif is perfect cause I’m for real the dude in the suit jacket.
