      There’s a hate campaign against her and it’s because she doesn’t identify as black. Why would she when she’s mixed? Anyways blame the hip hop industry for propping people on a pedestal for being mixed or lighter skinned over darker artists. Unless the lighter/mixed black artist is bigoted then the topic should be the industry. I’m tired of women of color getting a hate campaign especially when it’s started by fans of color. Once the white fans realize this they’ll jump all over Tyla like Jackels.

      I love how sassy and playful she is ☺️. She isn’t phased by a bunch of hating Americans who expect women to know their place and bea patriarchal version of humble lol. We need more Tylas and Chappell’s women who are unapologetically themselves and don’t let Hollywood, haters or creepy stans control who they are.

      people have been having a hate boner for Tyla since she said she wasnt black and now everything she does is overanalized to the highest degree. I also think that xenophobia plays a part in it aswell, people expect her to be a certain way because she’s South African, they expect her to be at their feet thanking them for allowing her to exist and since she’s not, theres a problem

      I know people gotta promote their art but I genuinely wish people would get off Twitter. Someone could be talking about rescuing a kitten and there will be replies like “you fucking piece of shit took the kitten to a kill shelter! now it’s gonna fuckin die, you should of just left it on the side of the road then” like damn!!! It’s so full of hate, especially towards women and female celebrities.

      I don’t understand the hate and discourse regarding this girl…so many women on tik tok saying she’s a pick me while being bullies themselves. People lost the plot.

      I have a feeling it’s her being black and not being humble enough in their eyes. People often act like certain demographics have to act humble and like they’re so grateful for a crumb.
