    • To me they not appreciated enough. People try to push the redbones down our throats. That’s the media and Willie Lynch trying to separate us. In the end we all black.

        • Exactly. Blacks gotta stick together. No matter what shade we are. We’re the only race that disrespects each other on public forums. lol.

  1. Really like Azealia’s music but can’t tell if she’s saying this stuff for attention or if she’s being serious. All women are beautiful, so it might be her own insecurities coming out.

    • Yea I concurr. She’s only 1/2right on a lot of comments and when she’s wrong and you call her out on it. Uht oh! Your an enemey then

  2. just speak on why nobody fuckin with you and stop tryin to think all women are in the same boat with you with your ugly attitude, man body and wack techno dance raps. Bitch be gone!!!!!!

  3. She speaking the truth! I know out here in la some light skin blacks like to refer to sistas that’s a darker shade as the darks and the phrase “the darks are mad” is constantly used. Now sometimes we as a people can be quite sensitive because of years of put downs, but sometimes all it takes is a good convo getting to know one another and we are cool. I mean I sometimes catch flack for having a white bm till folk get to talking to me and see I’m bout my people. Some cats think if they with a Asian or white girl from a so called good neighborhood, they feel they are now better than all black people, now to me that is a huge mistake and those are the types that will be shieldswhen shit pop off. Who I had a child with does not make me better, it just means I had a kid with a woman that happened to be white, but I Damn sure ain’t riding with that side, and I will always give my sistas their just due especially one’s that are considered chocolate yell

    • Dude you talkin out your ass here, all boils down to self esteem. If you mad nobody checkin for you, then you make up excuses to justify it. Sometimes you gotta just admit some chicks are attractive and some are more attractive than others. I could care less what colour they are, that LA thing is all in your mind. If you’re easy on the eye, you’re easy on the eye, fuck banks and wat she thinks, I’ll pick iggy over her ugly dark skinned ass any day, and you can tell her I said it!

      • Nuff respect, “but” she has a point she’sjust 1/2 right is all.anyone who knows their own history knows that this has been an issue within our culture for some time. “But” that comment should havebeen “some” and not “all”

  4. She does have a point. Personally I love dark skin women(I mean the pure dark skin) but most guys love when the opposite sex is light skinned. However, I don’t take her seriously on most things. She’s going on and on about everything and then is posing for playboy. I am sure she will use the overused excuse of showing empowerment, but I am not buying it.

  5. Blanket generalizations ……. yea …. those always go over well ……. smh …. her maladaptive behavior is making Kanye look sane af! lol

  6. nah guys ain’t getting at you because of your personality, not your skin colour. crazy chick=hit it n dip!

  7. i’ll empathize with the plight of dark women when women empathize with the plight of short men

  8. This girl need to shut up, bc i love me a chocolate women…make music..what happened artists used to just, make music

  9. Her thoughts do have validity..Black women in general tend to get a raw deal.. Darker women are considered “Less desirable” in many instances. I understand allot of people on this forum will say I like women of all colors and that’s dope. But that logic doesn’t apply across all races, and there have been studies to prove it.. It even happens with children where they’ll hand them baby dolls and the darker ones are considered “ugly”.. If you wanna talk about the media, or fashion just as a entry level barometer..Next time you go into a make up store with your girl just try to find make up that would be suitable for darker women from major designers…You wont… Small things like that are just a miniscule tip of the ice berg that darker women tend to have problems with.. Just my two cents though

  10. Don’t understand her rant! Dark skinned Black women are the most beautiful women in the world. This girl must have low esteem. Stay off social media with your simply untrue rants. Make music and shut up!

  11. free Rodney Reed convicted of murder in Texas falsely to be put to death march 5th and as far as azealia fuck that bitch the blacker the berry you know the rest the juice nigga the juice is always sweet

  12. That’s not true! I think she is in love with ccontroversy & attention more than anything. Which is funny…especially when you post “your” thoughts with a passage like “I don’tcare what anyone says! We “few” Good Black men get fed up with”your bullshyet” as well

  13. The fact that you have to recommend porn as the lane to find dark skinned Black women is demoralizing, degrading, and more evidence of their marginalization.
    Two, light skinned Black women, Hispanic women, white women, and others all have stretch marks. That ain’t a dark skinned thing. Kim Eternity is beautiful.

  14. I find it ironic that the black girl trying to be white constantly complains about the white girl trying to be black. Lol. I dnt speak for all ppl but i dnt dislike her cuz she’s black, but because she’s wack..

  15. It has nothing to do with darker women not getting love.dark skin girls are equally sexy. What we not fucking with is chicks with boy bodies always tweeting more then putting out hits. Can u say insecure?

  16. I thnk ppl despise her because she is wack, not cuz shes black. She seems to b a very insecure bitter person. N i dnt understand y she’s so angry at iggy for “acting black”, when this bitch tries so hard to “be white” that its sad. How ironic.
