American Black Cross Call-To-Action
[https://youtu.be/Rp2YUtn-dPM] 09/26/17 Bravo! These are heroes saving lives. Respect - This is what REAL humanity looks like! https://americanblackcross.org/
Thank you Inga for being a significant inspiration in my own womanhood. I am grateful for your presence in the entertainment industry because I’ve never related to any other ‘famous’ person as much as I do with you. If you did not exist, I’m certain I wouldn’t be attached to any celebrity and my personal style wouldn’t be the same. Aside from your music, your entire personality is intriguing. Thank you for breaking barriers and still never folding despite you not receiving barely any credit and almost always being bashed by everyone.
The irony is I’ve seen so many new female rappers take things that you did decades ago and will rarely credit you, but will easily name the other lady you came in the game with. You’re a beautiful Black sheep. A Black Rose. Thank you for putting a voice to me feeling misunderstood during Broken Silence era, discovering the power in silence and helping me embrace my eye shape & wide smile and finding beauty in myself as a teen.
Thank you for showing the world just how gorgeous dark skinned Black women are along with Lauryn Hill and one can reign the charts at #1. You were the 1st female rapper to do that despite no one wanting to credit you for that. You had Hugh Heffner repeatedly begging you to do Playboy, which you turned down. Biggie and Jay both wanted you on their team. Pac didn’t diss you either. You made your male counterparts look good. You made them sound good. You made them complete. From Jay to Nas: “Foxy got you hot ‘cause you kept your face in her puss/ Hope you don’t think you gettin’ girls now because ya looks, negro please!” (”Ether”, 2001)
Thank you for being private and mysterious, although that is one of the many reasons people never understand why you do what you do and they may be inclined to believe rumors so easily and run with it. It’s always one side of the story told and it’s never yours. Despite Remy Ma dissing you nowadays, I do recall one of her earliest interviews saying you were her biggest inspiration to rap because you were dark skinned, beautiful and had attitude.
Thank you for destroying countless men on their own songs. I would skip straight to your parts. Like Janet Jackson, you made it a privilege for you to pop up at an Awards show/event and I always got hype, just because I knew you weren’t the type.
