“I feel like I still have to represent the [black] community,” Tinashe continued. “That has been what has been my struggle... There is a Beyoncé, there is a Rihanna, there is Zendaya, there is a Jourdan Dunn. There is a black girl in all of these positions and we don’t need another one. It’s just kind of ridiculous because there are like a hundred blonde, white actresses and leading ladies. There are a hundred rappers that all virtually look the same, sound the same, and dress the same and no one cares. But for some reason, when it comes to young women, they want to pit them against each other... There can’t be five black girls winning. It’s weird.”
Of course. It's how people are on all of these forums and all too. Polls Tinashe vs. this person...and just downplaying other artists' work and talents.
Yep. It pains me seeing Mehgan, Ariana, Taylor or any white girl at any given moment being able to succeed so easily when Tinashe, FKA, even Zendaya fail to breakthrough with so much creativity and talent.
