Kaleena from Dirty Money released a diss to the whole industry back in the early 2000s when she wasn't in the industry yet. She was told by labels that she was too ugly to be a singer and that she needed to stick to song writing.

She dissed Beyoncé, Mariah, Monica, Brandy, Lil Kim, JLO and more.




Here's the song: http://soundcloud.com/adropofreality/kaleena-smacked-up

Interview she did:

“I kind of started off as a solo artist, and I was doing that for a very
long time. And you know, just coming up against obstacles; they was like,
you know, ‘you too black,’ or ‘you’re not marketable.’ Whatever they came
up with in their minds to say that I wasn’t artist material, you know. I
just said I’m going to be a businesswoman, and I’m going to be like the
Missy Elliotts, and the R. Kellys, and the Keith Sweats. I’m going to
write for other artists, and they’re not going to have no other choice but
to hear me, and to buy my music, and to respect me as an artist.

That was complexion wise. It was complexion, and you know something, it’s
a difference between chocolate and brown and peanut butter and even
Snicker bar, you know what I’m saying. Chocolate is something different,
you know. And so the way they made it seem was, you black as night girl;
you crispy, burnt black, and that’s just not marketable right now. And it
wasn’t at the time to be totally honest with you."

And she's still not going to be recognized at her local McDonalds.

She dragged everybody who's lighter than her because the label told her she was too dark.
