If it were that easy and if being a writer was the only qualifier for wanting to take back a record, you would hear more instances of that sort of thing happening. Regardless, you would think that lightskin privilege, if it truly is as effective and guaranteed as people like to frame it as, would have created at least some kind of halt in that process.

lol no.

Idk people hated on light skin rappers (mainly drake I guess) HARD in the early 2010s.

That’s when Vine/tumblr had all the light skin dude memes

She makes great music

thought i was going crazy reading the title and then seeing posts about “if she was ugly”

Drake did nothing for her career. Yall CLB niggas delusional fr fr.

First album was really good. Last album flopped.

she need to put that privilege to work like drizzy

wow..

You didnt even know her before jorja interlude lmao

?

It’s a little worse but still kinda overblown

i mean surely she's not hanging on to Drake by any means, it's been years and she still has listeners and supporters. but More Life certainly was an introduction to a wider audience. that's not even a question lol

Yeah no denying black light skin men are ostracized for being light skin in mainstream media cause light skin = feminine but you’ll still see a good amount of mainstream success within music when it comes to light skin men. Now film? Not so much the case

Music is a reflection of society so a light skin man still has some desirability that makes up for the ostracizing a little bit (an advantage again not seen in film as film isn’t truly a reflection of society in as literal of a way as music). Even then, the huge lightskin male artists besides Drake are either uber-masculine rappers like Ice Cube or s***symbol singers

But how many huge black female artists are there? Not many

anyway On My Mind is an eternal bop and she will always have that at least

She living off of sexy af privilege….but she’s actually vocally very talented. Wish her music was more creative overall but she def has some good songs in her catalogue.

She’s super hot though.

Blue Lights came out in 2016 and was and still is one of her most well known songs.

You're just wrong.

Also nobody listens to Jorja interlude like that.

Same niggas that think Drake put Wizkid on.

Crazy to think that Drake wasn't the only person paying attention to the UK scene pre-2017

i think you're incorrect. i think niggas in the know would make that distinction.

the words you used were "did nothing for her career." it's not a big deal to say more life and jorja's involvement with drake introduced her to a wider audience. that's simple logic and not a slight to jorja at all.
