BLACK HAIR-STORY: Embracing the power and beauty of Black women's hair this Black History Month, with Lil Kim , Mary J Blige , Nivea & JT of the City Girls. [ Eras from 1995-2023 ] #NotTheBAYANG !
For centuries, our hair has been an undeniable symbol of resilience, creativity, and self-expression. From ancient times to modern-day, it's been our crown, our canvas, our statement.
Yet, the journey to celebrate our natural hair hasn't always been easy. Despite the rich history of using wigs, weaves, and elaborate hairstyles as editorial expressions, and beauty tactics for everyday life we still face backlash for embracing our true selves.
JT, of the City Girls was the most recent topic of discussion just last year for her experimental “ MOWALOLA X BEATS BY DRE “ headphones y2k inspired campaign look. Social media warriors called her names and insulted her existence for telling a story with the look she was in…
People have always hated black women’s hair. Let's reclaim our narrative, honor our roots, and celebrate every strand as a testament to our strength and beauty. — [ x ]

DID YOU KNOW: Foxy Brown was almost on the roster for a Spring tour with Aaliyah in '97.
#OnThisDay MTV NEWS publishes an article (about the current ’97 Spring Break concert - that spanned from Saturday, March 1, 1997 - Friday, April 25, 1997). In their article, dated 4/7/97, they mentioned that Aaliyah planned a Spring tour with Foxy Brown and AZ Yet.
Unfortunately, nothing ever materialized from this, and the tour never happened due to scheduling conflicts from each artist. Instead, Aaliyah would tour that Summer with Dru Hill, Ginuwine, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, and Mary J. Blige (Per a separate article from MTV about a '97 Summer tour).

If I'm going to be the best in what I do, I have to study what I'm doing, I have to see what I'm doing. I have to see it, I have to hear it. I'm just starting to appreciate myself - not starting, but appreciating myself in a way where I can look at myself back in a movie or listen to myself as much as I do now.
- Mary J. Blige

#OnThisDay OCTOBER 4TH - 5TH 1995 | URBAN AID 4 LIFE LAUNCHES:
When Eric Lynn Wright, known professionally as Eazy-E, passed away after being diagnosed with AIDS March of 1995, the butch/he-man world of hip-hop dismissed AIDS as an only “gay disease” and rap moguls started to consider raising money for AIDS research and education. An event called the Urban Aid 4 Lifebeat was started and filled the Madison Square Garden arena Thursday night (10/5/95) for five (5) hours of hip-hop and rhythm-and-blues.
Leading rappers from New York and New Jersey – the Wu-Tang Clan, Naughty by Nature, Run-D.M.C., the Notorious B.I.G., Craig Mack, Junior M.A.F.I.A., Fat Joe da Gangsta, Salt-n-Pepa – alongside male and female crooners including Jodeci, Mary J. Blige and Brandy.
Alongside the Notorious B.I.G. were Craig Mack (performing a major summer hit, “Flava in Ya Ear”), Junior M.A.F.I.A. and female crooners including Faith, Aaliyah and the three-woman group Total, who sang, “Can’t you see what you do to me?”
