Here is some social media chatter you may have missed Friday.
Tonight @OfficialHanifa debuted the Pink Label Congo Collection on IG Live. This is CREATIVITY, this is what a BLACK WOMAN can do!
Le coeur de l'Afrique | The Heart of Africa
Riddled with a painful history, the beauty of Congo is often untapped and overlooked. The gentleness, beauty,
history, poise, majesty, strength, power, and hope of the Congolese spirit inspired this collection. When creating each piece, I was reminded of the stories my mother told me of the women she knew back home in Congo. Women who suffered great loss but still, mustered every ounce of strength everyday to show up. My hope is that this collection inspires all women to stand tall in their power and like the Democratic Republic of Congo, to use their history, whether pretty or painful — to redesign their future. My country, the land of Congo, is ripe with an abundance of natural resources — the greatest of which are its people — its women.
Hanifa presents.... Pink Label Congo.
Doja, Doja, Doja...that's it!
Like clockwork, something is dug up or purposely leaked in an attempt to get a female rapper canceled after she has a huge success. This is Megan Mugshot-gate, and Lizzo Nude Photo-gate all over again.
Doja Cat allegedly likes chatting with racists, may have dropped a song making fun of police brutality
against Blacks, and may not want to be considered Black. Now, this story is still developing and I would not be surprised if a certain STAN-base is behind all these narratives. The video being shown has Doja Cat and another Black guy talking to a group of white guys. So, I am going to wait for a response from Doja Cat and for more information before addressing the actual allegations. However...
I would not be surprised if due to her feeling abandoned by her Black father if she has some resentments. Now that does not excuse her behavior...IF TRUE, but she would not be the first biracial kid to lash out against her own. Secondly, I find her personality to be very troll-ish and annoying. I could see her sitting in chats with racists and trolling her little heart out. She likes being controversial and seeks attention IMO.
DOJA-VU
Two years ago Twitter dug up a 2015 Tweet where Doja Cat called Tyler The Creator and Earl Sweatshirt "fa**ots." When asked to apologize, she defended her use of the word by saying it over and over again. I think she eventually gave an apology, but what was it worth by that time. So, people who are familiar with Doja Cat, know her as being problematic and a rebel without a cause.
Ole Girl got her tattoo finished and a new purse...
Comment, Like, Share...Thanks!
If you have something to say, please post in on Yaya-Gram AKA The Forum Area.
@Julia, we have to remember Doja Cat is half Black. She is getting treated that way. the other girl like to pretend to be Black and so she is treated like what she really is...not Black.
All I’ll say is that they’re so quick to cancel Doja but were so quick to make any and every excuse for Cardi B.
Finally, a fashion show I can actually attend! It was so damn creatively dope. Look at our people raising the bar.
Doja clearly needs help. I don't in any way agree with her action, but I do believe the only reason all of this came out is only because of who she is affiliated with.
Cardi has transitioned into an Instagram model with such ease. I pray she stays there because I no longer have the stomach to listen to her bullshit.
I fucks with Maliibu Miitch, but I haven't listened to her new song. Hopefully she starts to get the recognition she deserves.
Happy birthday, Naomi!
Latanya, I agree with not allowing stories to develop, I guess we just disagree as to what causes a story to develop. I won't censor anyone, it was just a suggestion. do you.
@yaya, hmm I can see your side, but at the same time it’s never good to let stories develop in my humble opinion. Although this is quite new. Y’all need to be careful with Jason Lee, anything to insert Nicki and her fans in any drama he will do. The barbs can be a little much, however they have become a scapegoat to continue to push a dying narrative.
