Amara La Negra On Cardi B, LHH:MIA Reunion + Hardships Being Afro-Latina

[@OB9913]

So ironic some of these ppl criticizing her saying she’s “too dark, tanning, not light enough or faking her Spanish accent” aren’t even Hispanic. Please educate yourselves.

[@TheComedyChord]

she offends them b/c she proves that their thought of DR women are wrong. lol

[@gillianlandry283]

As much as Black people in the US decry racism, they are just as ignorant towards other Black people from other countries!

[@katiab8865]

I know exactly what Tamara and the other dude are talking about. I was raised i NYC and Lived there more then 27 years, but I few year ago, I moved to California. Often time people get surprised when they hear me speak Spanish but what I HATE the most is when come to me to congratulate me on who well I speak the language.

From one woman to another, I love how much of an activist she is but that she is still super feminine in how she carries herself. Beautiful hair and makeup, sparkly red nails, not afraid to smile, stylish...More girls and women need to look up to her for inspiration. I hope she makes it on a worldwide level! Wishing her all the best!

[@kaofounder]

Martin Rosario That was the third time that Charlamagne had spoken to an Afro-latina ON FILM about what it means to be afro latina. Don't let him sell you that story that he didn't know. He's made a decision, be it conscious or subconscious, that their struggle is not important enough to acknowledge.

The whole "advancing the race" thing goes on in PR, too. It drives me up a wall to hear and correct people. I'm so glad she's shedding a light on this.

[@symonelopez-mondy8946]

Miss Raquel I'm shocked to hear Puerto Rican say this. my family is from Bayamon,puerto rico and they have never cared about color. most of my family are morenos. this is so shocking to hear. is this in other parts of Puerto Rico? I've never heard of advancing the race so I'm so shocked.

[@tianaprince-nalwanga4375]

Miss Raquel Ugandans do it too and it’s in Africa! We got a Rwandese president and he’s from a tribe is light skin and he promotes them more and now he brought in the Chinese, Japanese, Germans, white Americans and now we got people telling their kids to marry for lighter skin. Eg my son, black but with a polish dad, I see a Ugandan girl who’s got a Japanese dad therefore she’s got less African features so I make them marry each other to ‘make pretty kids’.

Wow, I had never heard of this girl, she's amazing. Stunningly beautiful and intelligent. Can we replace Cardi B with this girl, she's the type of woman young girls can actually look up to.

[@treyjones4020]

John Crimmins no, she is half naked in her videos, she ain't no role model. I like Cardi's flow, I haven't even heard one verse from her. I that I hear about is Colorism problems in Spanish America. We don't live in Spanish America.

[@dawn8058]

Umm have you seen her videos when all she does is act like a sea toy and even made up her own ass shaking dance clearly you don't know anything about her or her career. A role model for young girls to look up too I think not when she's moaning simulating sex and constantly half naked shaking her body as if that's all she is worth . Please do your research people if you are not familiar with someone.

[@jlcrimm1]

Hey Troy and Dawn.... it's 2018, sex is not a bad thing, being sexy is not a bad thing, if it is all you have to offer - then that makes you someone who won't last for long. Cardi B is provoking beef with gang members, constantly picking fights with people online and on her absurd reality TV show; her music is filled with violence, threats, materialism, and pure ignorance. That is a whole lot of negative energy being pumped out through the airwaves to our youth. Amara showing some booty makes her a bad role model??? Nah, y'all just unhappy people, probably mad because this young woman is far more beautiful inside and out than yourselves.

[@treyjones4020]

John Crimmins maybe she should go into the strip club then. Cardi will pay the tax to the gang and then move on. It is rap, it is supposed to be full of drama. All we here about with this fraud is Colorism in Latino land which alludes to the notion that she doesn't care about Colorism in America. If she has a problem in Hispanic America with Colorism, then she should go there and protest. There are many real Dominicans that are rich and famous baseball players, why don't they put some money behind the movement. Don't complain to AAs, just star a KZbin tv channel.

[@dawn8058]

John Crimmins wow , very funny, you sound extremely ignorant as obviously you are. I don't know what you are not that I care to know a thing about an angry troll, I Personally am half Hispanic and have lived in NYC my entire life, and worked in the best clubs . I have also in the past bartededed and waitresses in what you would call the more upscale gentleman's clubs as well because why would i care I know who I am, and my morals and limits I have NEVER danced , I was also always asked to join the "fashion industry " and participate while being compensated in music videos , which I also turned down because of my standards and morality as I've stated just making sure you're following because your comment made you sound a little bitter and disillusioned and obviously ignorant anyway, so everything about your comment made me laugh actually thanks, myself and another commentator where trying to tell you about her since you which look completely Caucasian I cannot tell nor do I care but what I'm saying is you probably know and whish you had another clue Into Dominican culture besides maybe screwing one of their hookers lol on how sexually perverse it is not in a "sexy" way as you were "assuming " because you know you make an ass of yourself when you assume"! and just like the saying you were! COMPLETELY wrong on EVERYTHING. Deal with it.I left the club business behind, Thank God because I wanted to get closer to him I don't knock it though as long as it's done with standards and morality ,and it was only bartending and cocktailing anyway but I saw and felt the difference and even at what were videos and fashion events I saw and felt nothing "sexy" its called RAUNCHY and cheap and how much is this girl gonna do type of vibe in that industry alot....so you like an angry ignorant keyboard warrior you decided to guess about my looks, education ,whole career and background from behind a screen you sound like a genius! Wow , and another thing my mother's first language was Spanish as well (I am bilingual also, you probably dont even know or even understand sny of her songs lmao) and was sent on an airplane at age 6 thrown into the American school system and speaks perfect, eloquent Spanish and English with no accent AT ALL in either language and has dual citizenship . And as far as ever wearing and shaking my ass as she has and like I said u obviously are a pig and have no class to even know and decipher what sexiness and trashiness is because I never even showed that much bartending in a strip club than she does in her videos ! Lmaoo again, it was just tight all black outfits for me some girls choose to show more, with booty shorts , me I didn't have too! Get a clue and some knowledge you obviously have neither don't bother to respond you are blatantly the one angry ,clueless, ignorant, and could NEVER tell me about a business I've lived and a culture I am lmaooool blocked hahaha wow what a tard! Go read or travel and learn something .Cono, que tipico ignorante! Jajaja

[@Ss-mr5pj]

She is an East African beauty 👍🏾

[@silentguru8596]

Thats why i love my Dominican women 🇩🇴✊ i love Amara La Negra

[@bluephoenix9160]

Leo Rosado why?

[@jzc3rd]

Great interview with a smart beautiful woman ...Because that mess on the other station was pitiful.

[@happy123495]

james crump shes telling me the truth i was denied a job because the interviewer said that i was to dark to be so smart, and with my features i should be servicing people bringing in male contractors.

[@jzc3rd]

Mrs Kitten that is the other persons problem never yours!!...think about it did dark skin brothas and sistas start this nonsense...NO THEY DIDN'T!!!!...I don't doubt her...this society is wicked

[@poetz153]

A mess.

[@kristensmith909]

I wish I had a Barbie doll that looked like her when I was growing up she's gorgeous 😍😍😍

[@PrezentEnt]

Amara i agree with you , you make the Dominican Community proud . I'm promoting what you stand for myself.

[@bpavilion8994]

She's pretty. I don't know who she is but I saw her and clicked because I don't see someone who looks like her too often. I kinda miss seeing black people, I'm tired of these light skinned people... Need more shades, especially dark shades.

[@mbm9907]

Amara is one of the most beautiful women I’ve seen in a while, like a Miss Universe contestant,.

[@Msboochie2]

Yes Amara! Talk about it.

[@utubemoi]

They were more prepared than the BFC for sure. They knew about her background...

[@aliseinwonderland6232]

utubemoi agreed... & Ebro was asking similar questions to Ctg, just less tone deaf. They were also askin y does she feel she struggled when she managed to break through in the Latin market - Ctg asked the same thing ... Amara was also articulating these issues much clearer in this interview better . Alot of BFC mistake was that they kept referencing American market when Amara was specifically addressing Latin American market and their lack of Dark skin representation.

[@Casanova966]

Beautiful Black Queen.

[@GunStreets-ct1kj]

Ebro stay mentioning Charlemagne lmfao. But he said the real.

[@martinrosario4018]

GunStreets he needs it for ratings lol

[@adriafurse1836]

Word

[@Buyis]

Ebro just keeping it real. Lmao he aint scared of punkass Charlemagne

[@greenlight3156]

Charlemagne is Bleaching his Skin that's why he try to bring Her down in that interview Hot97 took this *W*

[@GarageStudio7]

*She is actually impacting the world much more than she knows;* I hope she continues to be a voice of truth! 🌌👏

[@NattyTurnaOfficial]

Laura Styles does not know that there are black people in Mexico? They just started getting counted on the census a few years ago. I am not surprised, because my friend who was born and raised in Mexico learned about black Mexicans from me.

[@GunStreets-ct1kj]

Lupita nyongo is mexican too(nationality wise), a lot of people dont know that

[@Joker200084]

mexico is weird....i saw a video a while ago with a mexican man walking around a fair and the mexicans didn't even know they were native to that land. you could see it in their face. THEY DON'T KNOW THAT IS THERE LAND...they thought they were from spain...and these were the mestizos..not the actual white mexicans. History WASHED!

[@Joker200084]

Home and don't even know it...

[@NattyTurnaOfficial]

Strictly Hip Hop nah she is Mexican. She is from L.A.

[@RbibiRodriguez]

GunStreets FYI Lupita is not of Mexican origin she is no mestizos like me or Amara or laura stylze or DJ K....she is of KENYAN parentage her fathee was a diplomat for Mexico she was born there! She dont have the same bloodline like us we are mixed like the AFRO American people.

[@igetit7470]

I love EBRO...THIS GUY IS UNDERRATED

[@Shattisbaddis]

you are so right aside from sway he's one of the most cultured radio host out there, he can interview people from all walks of life and know something about their culture. I love when he does interviews with Dancehall artist it seems natural and informative.

[@jh8567]

Fact

[@ertfgghhhh]

The problem is that yall need to take african american and latin american history

[@megabugginout]

I getit Real unbiased dude.

[@TheMrretro5]

She so damn fine 😍

[@realtalkyafeelmah]

Her Nails are life!

[@xoxo_ann]

She is very well-spoken and confident. A perfect example of how hardships can make you a stronger, self-aware person. I admire her patience and hard work both as an artist and even more as an activist. Thank you for educating people like me who are so unaware.

[@mariah-1993]

Wow her skin just glows I love it

[@keezemojito1278]

She's mad pretty aint gon lie

[@amberdavis7199]

Beautiful intelligent and inspiring woman loved this interview!!!

[@Lordpraisethe]

Shes so brave. 😊

[@londonbell3088]

Dear God I ❤ this woman. I hope she is part of the change needed in the Latin Culture when it comes to race acceptance. This was an amazing interview. Hats off to Hot 97.

[@uinise5307]

Love that y'all are super open and understanding and just like respectful of what Amagra voicing her voice! Love Y'all!!

[@dahmarie98]

Some of these comments really make me ashamed to be African American,the ignorance in these comments from people who look just like Amara are blasphemous. Then y'all wonder why black people from other countries look down on us. Why are we always the first to put our own people down?

[@dahmarie98]

Micheal Johnson All this I know but that wasn't my point. I'm talking about the African Americans in these comments who are saying she needs to stop "complaining",they're not sure how to take her seriously,she sounds uneducated & are just oblivious to the struggles she's gone through and still going through.

[@dahmarie98]

As a dark skin black female I'm very aware that others stereotype African Americans. I go through it all the time, that just wasn't the point of my comment at all. But thanks for your input.

[@ourtruth216]

I see nuthn but love what comments are you reading?? 🤔🤔🤔🤔

[@d.joseph98]

dahmarie B what comments are you reading?????? I see nothing but love. Girl STOP

[@meoy0521]

Hot 97 showed so much respect love them for this. Treated her like a Queen ❤️

[@michelleamatulle6378]

She’s awesome. And I love that she rises above all the b.s. with trying to get women to fight each other instead of love each other. F that noise! ✊🏾

[@IAmPlaysWithSquirrel]

Much, much better than the BC interview. This was actually insightful and I got to learn more about Amara here than I ever did. But I hope she stops doing interviews for the time being until she has some new music to promote. I just don’t want her to be overexposed. And major side eye at Ebro for claiming that Asians love black people. No, they do not. 😒

[@KellieAlston]

What a thought-provoking discussion! I truly enjoyed the exchange of ideas. I am hopeful that the conversation ensues and that change happens, swiftly.

[@Got.It.All.S580]

Amara 😍😍😍😍💅🏽💃🏽🙌🏾

[@dtorresion]

That Miami accent is music to my ears

[@bluephoenix9160]

Gian Rodrig 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@vanessabarzola9890]

I visited Dominican Republic years ago, Amara was walking down Santo Domingo downtown with some friends at that time she was already famous in her country. Let me tell you I thought she wasn't even real she was that pretty in person! I have to confess that I also thought that she was painting herself because her skin is so perfect, her character demands attention when you see her! Glad, to see that she is on her way to the top!

[@annsyyajones9968]

That's why my sister that's right.

[@marinadominicanaperez3655]

[@Love25648]

[@Love25648]

She doesn't look East African or Fulani either lmfao. She just looks like an black woman.

[@rondie8404]

[@jah3415]

my new news in the industry are amara & juju!

[@MizAlexandria]

Amara is so absolutely stunning I cannot imagine how anyone couldn’t be intrigued

[@denoeavila]

I couldn't more in tune with what has been said on this interview so well spoken. I was born and raised in Spain and racism isolation has been constant but I considered myself Spanish.It is not hard to understand that there are black in South America or whatever place might be, if you look back to history, is pure logic as 1+1=2! Migrations are part of human history. In fact, I have Haitian roots and as my mom says we are all connected, still she recognises Haiti as Africa but in a different location. Leaving Spain helped me to be in contact with my race in all empowering levels.... being able to walk on the street and not feeling staring eyes is the most enjoyable feeling. I love Amara's music can't stop listening What a bam bam, keep reaching high to make us all proud! It is great to see artists like Choc Quib Town, Ibeyi, Iza, Bomba Estereo.... besides Afro-Americans cause I feel there still areas that need to catch up on representation/ showing mix influences!!

[@Luis860_]

Esa es una dominicana bellaaaa i duraaa q estaaa 😘💯💯💯💯
