Reposted from @yung.yemi: Django Jane... - #regrann As I take a break from writing a proposal from my next presentation, my sugar dumpling sends me this...

Versace, Versace S/S 2020 😍

The conversation that @ebonyjanice and I are having in the DMs personified. You good? #hiphopculture

Reposted from @styleandvibes - Rest in Power to di Original Jamaican Don Dada Louie Rankin! His impact on the culture for his iconic roles in #Belly and #Shottas will be forever cemented in history. Don til the end! Our condolences to his loved ones #louierankin #Original #dancehall #jamaicanactors - #regrann

Last week, I presented @janellemonae as a #scyborg (not an android) and explained how #dirtycomputer is a #decolonialproject based off of #lapaperson's #athirduniversityispossible. There are strong parallels between the third uni and #dirtycomputer. Then I showed how dc was a blueprint for bringing women of #hiphop into conversation, such as #cindycampbell as a business entrepreneur. It's about #representation, little girls who grow up on hip-hop dont know there is more to the game and if they only see one type of woman, they think that's it. To prevent the #erasure of the #nevermind its important to represent the nuances. By doing so, you remember our names like #djangojane; allows for #selfacceptance and #ilikethat. I also big up the #electricladies like @iammarthadiaz @dearsommer @ebonyjanice @syreetagates and myself who #takeabyte out of digital and physical spaces to preserve the culture that will inform the future. #hiphop

My childhood friend posted this the other day and got me thinking...NATIVE New Yawkers, what are your thoughts?

Happy birthday to one of my heartbeats, motivators and inspirations. You can't say you know me if you dont know her. #8 #lowkeylegend

The other day, I was told that a young lady I know was disrespected and it got to her. Someone called her "incompetent." I went to go look for her, but she was gone. I finally saw her today and I reminded her of her greatness and what she is accomplishing because she was definitely ready to feed into the "incompetent" narrative. I wasn't having it. She knows her stuff, but things happen. Moreover, the person's anger and ignorance had nothing to do with her. People in these toxic ass spaces never hesitate to release their venom...I got the antidote though.
