“Imma make sure these light skin niggas never ever come back in style” - Kanye West-Kardashian, 2003

Just off the top of my head when you think about the top musicians/actors/athletes most of them at darker.

Like think of the top black actors male and female you get…

Idris Elba
Samuel jackson
Angela basset
Denzel
Lupita Nyongo
The nigga from get out
Michael B Jordan
Chadwick (RIP)
Regina king

And that’s just off the top of my head

"Calm down ya light skin"

I think the privilege lies in the fact that you can be less talented and successful as a lighter skin actor, more than a dark skin actor

Cheekbone fetish

It's good that he changed it tho

Pop smoke in hello

I like my b****es redbone, ass fat, Jell-O
Lightskin, yellow, iced out, hello

Pop smoke in element

I like dark skins, love her melanin

Notice how he didn't go out of his way to berate anyone or to pit women against eachother

You're a clown for dragging a late man into this btw

time to start naming folks lol

Niggas are idiots

New lyrics dont even make sense but good for him ig

I thought this debate was silly to you
Mr. Let's not argue about who has more slave master blood

Ask yourself why as black men we put lighter women on a pedistal and lighter women are much more desirable. Like lets be real with ourselves and have that conversation. Its crazy because real dark niggas know what colorism is because that s*** used to be mad blatant when we were young. But s*** changed when we realized we were desirable and in style then niggas lost they minds lol. Preference is one thing but lets not act like we aren’t conditioned to treat darker women worse. Pathetic niggas itt tbh.

I made that post cause it sounded woke not because I thought it through

😂😂😂

First of all, me mentioning that song has the slightest to do with the defamation of Pop Smoke and I actually thought more about A Boogie's feature on that song seeing as it's a bit more blatant about the fact.

Second, I think you're overanalyzing the lyrics a lot mentioning the "pitting" of ppl against each other. Like I'm not excusing him per se, but you're putting it in a light as if the guy was probably not just saying s*** in the studio lol. I mean they're so many lines just like that and there will probably continue to be. Think of Tyler's "French!" for an example.

Real

Fr man could've said something as basic as

I got me a tall girl fetish, woah
That made my short b**** jealous, woah

Heightism

im sure twitter has already tried to cancel kendrick for this...

s

if I hear colorism one more time...

Heightism isn't rooted in white supremacy but nice try, 🤡

I was right

He's using tweets from randoms to try and debunk systemic racism, okay sir

colorism

Now go cry on the coli about it
