I’ll always defend tinashe as a artist for the undeniable fact that she’s been so resilient after being tried by the industry so many times in her career and yet still puts out amazing art and is always confident that’s a POPSTAR

Everyone felt sad for the penguin walking alone and the monkey rejected by his mother. But this video is far more heartbreaking, yet it didn’t receive the same attention.

*sorry if my english is messy ..
This isn’t just about me !
Black artists have shaped pop culture from day one .. yet we’re the least supported in history and that has to end.
Black women don’t flop because our art isn’t good. We flop because people don’t show up for us the way they do for others POP ARTISTS, PERIODT.
Why ? Maybe because the industry benefits from our creativity but rarely invests in us, duh!
They love what we create until it’s time to actually stand behind us. That has to change, TODAY.
A lot of people don’t really know what it TAKES for independent artists like me. Support isn’t just a bonus.. it’s literally what keeps the music alive guys !
We don’t have the same machines, the same budgets, the same media exposure pushing us forward. Every step i take, every project i build like.. i do it with what i HAVE.
I advance the costs of everything : the music videos, my team’s salaries, my tours, the production of albums. I fund it all from A to Z alone. Every cent i earn goes back into building my art and paying the people who help me bring it to life !!!!
That’s the part people don’t always see. When major artists drop a project they’ve got entire infrastructures and team behind them.
When i drop something it’s me.. my fear and my faith and my money betting everything on myself again and again.
It took everything in me to build my career as a POP artist in FRANCE who doesn’t fit the perfect pop mold. I’ve been insulted, dragged, underestimated just for existing the way i am and i NEVER bent my back.
My new album MENTAL was created to introduce my art to the world especially to the US where i now live between Paris and LA.
Now.. i’m fighting to be recognized as a global artist and honestly… even when Alibi blew up last year people tried to discredit me like they said i was nobody that it wasn’t my success and that my verse didn’t matter like .. they tried to erase me from my own story like what the fuck !!?
Let me tell you something, the way the world shows up for the biggest pop stars that’s the same energy Black artists deserve too.
