rihannabiggestfan Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 (edited) Princess Nokia: "I started as a person a couple years ago, when making [my album] Metallic Butterfly. I started rediscovering and discovering things about myself, and this world, that really make sense. First and foremost, I’ve always identified as afro-indigenous. It was a big part of my identity growing up, and the people who raised me wanted to reinforce it. My foster mother, despite my feelings I have about her, was a very proud black, afro-indigenous, Puerto Rican woman." umm... how are people saying she's not black? oh, is it the "foster" part Edited January 11 by rihannabiggestfan Link to post Share on other sites
onapearl Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 3 minutes ago, Selena Gomez said: Not her trying to say she's not racist because she dated rappers as if all rappers are black and Eminem, G-Eazy, MKG and others don't exist. G-Eazy is literally one of the rappers she dated. I actually dk what other rappers she has dated. Maybe A$AP Rocky? Link to post Share on other sites

stjosephprey4us Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Princess Nokia has Afro Indigenous roots. Whether or not she identifies as black she’s still a woman of color. So replace “Ariana steals from black women” with “Ariana steals from women of color” and you’ve still got a match Satisfied? Link to post Share on other sites

Sugden Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 i mean arianas tan situation is messy but she never said "look i have non white friends and dated rappers, look how i'm not conservative guys" like thats just on another level os mess Link to post Share on other sites
Pop Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 the way she can't realize that racial injustice is NOT about her. for her, it's all about how she's portrayed vs how she really is in her mind. the endless victimization about her image being tarnished... paragraphs and paragraphs of tears and excuses... but not for ONE second did she look outwards and focus that passion to help black people. i love lana's music, but her behavior has been extremely narcissistic as of late. I think the acclaim she got with NFR got to her head a little Link to post Share on other sites

SickLove Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 She either didn't learn from the whole "question for the culture" fiasco from last year OR she learned the wrong sentiment from it which is that this is a way for her to get her name trending and is now attempting to use this as promo. Either ****ing way she needs to give her main social media account over to PR people and keep this kinda **** on her finsta only her friends have access to. This is honestly so embarrassing.

Sawk Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 She needs to just stop commenting on certain things for her own sake. She has all the right to speak her mind, but the energy should go into the music and not the IG posts. Link to post Share on other sites
