I’ve been on the fence… Should I post Natural Hair inspired videos weekly? Let me know if you enjoy watching…
This week’s natural hair inspiration is Ms. Janelle Monae: “Tightrope (Wondamix)” (feat. B.o.B, Lupe Fiasco). I watched a clip for the making the video, and Janelle Monae said something along the lines…
We have to keep our balance in it all
Not getting to high off accolades and praises
And not to low of opinions and critics
This is the tight rope
Push that movement
This is what you say to the people who try to oppress you
You tip on it
You tip on it
to stay balance
I preach a lot about individuality, and daring to be yourself, but dang it, Ms. Monae is the poster child of individuality! Her comments above also show she is a genius! The more I listen to her music, the more inspired I become…
Excerpt from Rap-up.com
She hopes her original look will inspire other women to embrace their individuality. “I’m trying to open doors for girls who look like myself and have been told they can’t sing about this or that.”
