The divine female energy in here is so strong, I decided to paint my own nails for the first time in years.

[@asd-foot-lettuce94]

You’re cute! ☺️

[@msjack1226]

The way she flows back and forth between different accents is fascinating.

[@vivians.906]

Cameron Jackson I notice she does that and I wonder why

[@almetas_grandbaby]

Its a very common practice for people of color navigating several spaces. It’s called code switching.

[@brendab.508]

I talked like her, it's on purpose, like she goes between general american, hispanic and NY accent. I do except i'm from Florida, so I have a Floridian accent.

[@brendab.508]

Really? that's so interesting!

[@haute03]

Created by Cristal Yep, exactly. Like when she starts talking about anything to do with her home the Harlem accent comes out, but when she's touching on complex topics like feminism she code switches.

[@brianna1350]

She's so soft-spoken. Her voice is music 💖💘

[@davidwood9718]

[@olloworld]

she had me laughing, smiling, crying, reflecting all in 40min. this is why I luv her.

[@tuffryda]

she reminds me of my future self so much, really amazing.

[@sandrallewellyn2632]

I like how you said that

[@ramak5231]

same, seriously. love her

[@andrebennett1596]

🤔🤔🤔🤔😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@shivs96]

I could listen to her speak all day and night. What a beautiful woman.

[@Wingedlion111]

what she's doing in this world, her presence in society is so fucking beautiful. she's being real and reaching out in ways most people can't. this is what we need. the love is so important, the way she delivers herself and her messages. i love this, i love what she's doing and i love her. i hope more young girls and women can look to her and be touched even just a little

[@alienvibe4295]

she honestly needs to start a KZbin channel to reach to girls cause holy shit this was so fucking inspirational and she just was able to say everything I was feeling except didn't know how to identify with or say it I love this so much. listening it at school goodness the love I have for her ugh ❤

[@ivygmni]

You should check out her podcasts on sound cloud, they go for about 40 minutes each and they're amazing! Just search "smart girls club"

[@alienvibe4295]

Omg thank you so much!!!

[@Jeanettelovesyouh11]

A concept!!

[@hallifaxv]

so true!! you should also watch the talk she had at brown university wich is also on youtube! it´s also so amazing!!! x

[@IsabelleSayed]

princess nokia + sza + kali uchis collab

[@vivians.906]

MISSY ELLE Kali Uchis is trash

[@createddream7469]

missysayed at least sza and Jhene but y'all know it ain't never happening

[@MagdaUFalcon]

Thank you for putting this on the internet!

[@mulatababy937]

I wonder what books she reads . her wisdom and awareness is a blessing .

[@arielrodriguez7132]

wow my mother really got me so inspired

[@SereenOmer]

I would love to just sit on a couch and have a conversation with her. She's such an inspiring and beautiful human being inside and out wow

[@koatzinkamilcruz1207]

"I ain't y'all role model, but I got an obligation to y'all "

[@Msboochie2]

Koatzin Cruz The best part of the whole thing.

[@womb666]

i could listen to her talk all day

[@blackrockergurl09]

She inspires me to want to be the best version of myself!

[@desiraye4619]

This really helps me. I have gone through and felt similar things Princess Nokia said she went through. My mental health is not the best but she inspires me so much to get better

[@bonitabarbie]

Time has passed since you left this comment. I'm just finding this Princess Nokia video.. & I hope your health has improved & that your in a better more beautiful place now. Bless 🙏

[@desiraye4619]

Dick Tracey thank you🤍

[@dami7848]

you should definitely do one with SZA, once she drops her album.

[@SmileyAdventures]

damilola Ajani THANK YOU😩😩😩

[@BrinkersMad]

i second that

[@thelma6]

I love her so much. I've been coming across beautiful, spiritual energy, and I would like to thank my thoughts for that. My thoughts often wander to wanting better energy around me. I do think the universe gives you what you want/need, and affirming it within yourself allows you to notice what would usually slip past your view. Princess Nokia is one of the entities I am thankful for, and I'm so glad seeing everyone feel the same. Tbh idk why I decided to go on this little tangent. :-) point is, thank you to the beautiful souls who put this together.

[@Pheonyx_the_Phenom]

thelma martinez Thank U 4 this beautiful tangent ♡ Love & Light 2 U ☆

[@elektrikbuzzed8813]

I don’t understand how I can feel so incredibly connected to someone that I’ve never met a day in my life.

[@nxdiuh]

She is so wise! So well spoken, gentle and aware of who she is. I strive to be like her.

[@220kimberly]

How can someone hate her? Shes is beautiful inside and out! 💕 and she is right about New York.

[@Boheluvchannel]

When you hear her perform, it's insane. She truly in incredible.

[@ErrickJackson]

You guys never fail to shed light on such incredible, innovative, thoughtful people. Thank you for this!

[@brianawilliams2762]

This was so powerful. Wow. Great way to start my day.

[@noodlewhale]

I had a really shitty day and this turned it all around. thank you. you have a beautiful soul.

[@ebonie1297]

I love her, she's relates to ppl so much even if ppl may not like her music you can't not love that personality and attitude

[@JIZGotEM]

This makes my heart warm

[@elizamora8744]

Actually the Spanish not only fantasized the native women in Central America they first wiped us out with disease and war in the end we had a low population by the time we were enslaved and then Spanish started to take indigenous women as wives are mistresses but mainly just rapping so it's not as different as she thinks but overall I love this interview

[@dontaskdontworry]

She’s so eloquent and graceful. Really wish I liked her music...

[@falontozer4799]

she’s not talked about enough. inspiring, intelligent, real, and overall a queen. my idol.

[@christinemav7862]

Her voice is so soothing

[@redluv123]

I come back to this time and time again. Sometimes just to calm myself into sleep at night. The world is horrible, men are predatory and mostly just driven by sexual self satisfaction. With all this disturbance, listening to this interview comforts me. Destiny is my superhero, my big sister in my head, she makes me feel like I am not alone and that I can survive and hopefully one day thrive in this world. Thank you for conducting this. The interviewer is super duper awesome too ❤️💗💜💙💛

[@aryawilliams1347]

I definitely agree about the New York favor thing. Growing up in New York gives you a kind of toughness that you can find no where else

[@liveforyouonly]

holy shit this interview is so underrated. she is so well spoken and well read, her knowledge spans from her culture, to spirituality, to feminism, to racism, etc etc.

[@gabrielareinoso999]

Princess Nokia feeling and loving her Taino indigenous roots!!! Esa es!!! Greetings from Cañaris Indigenous women from Ecuador!!!

[@dakoduh]

[@infinityrose_xoxo]

[@MoniquePolden]

[@jamstahjam]

[@nnillc8899]

[@Oceanagal95]

[@shaunicaballero5024]

[@tahzaebrown9743]

[@mayusoma]

I love her a lot of people won’t naturally accept people for who they are.

[@heidianderson2865]

Such a smart young woman my 23year old daughter sent this to me I listened to it on the way to work hearing her touch on certain subjects like puerto ricans and skin color and being abused we are taught not to speak about these things your told what happens at home stays at home.

[@kathrinenarducci7911]

[@tessaqg589]

She really inspires me to speak up and share my light with the world.

[@meaghanharris5980]

one of the most important voices out there right now. always inspiring.

[@sarahmoodle6076]

This was AMAZING!

[@cesaruribe3699]

I love her but actually the first part of the new world to be conquered by the Spaniards was quisqueya which is modern day Dominican Republic/Haiti

[@asd-foot-lettuce94]

cesar uribe Yep! It would be more accurate in her case to say, “among the first.” Good for you! Because of your comment, I had to actually do my research! Education is so important, esp. for people whose history has been stripped from them.

[@lauramartinez8373]

Your awesome Nokia ✊🏽Awho

[@nanettesandiford9736]

Definitely from the same tribe 💗 I can't get enough of this woman! What a true role model...

[@bri3449]

She's so beautiful and I love her

[@leonielawson6774]

so relateable...her knowledge makes her an attractive soul.

[@brownsuger25brown64]

[@pyslocke24]

Her energy is everything. ❤️❤️❤️ Her vulnerability

[@xarocha]

legit the realest thx thx thx

[@naimah2511]

she reminds me of myself so much, i just resonate with sis

[@bonitabarbie]

I need this today 🙏❤ When she spoke on certain subjects I want to cry. She knows how to word a situation so perfectly. I felt like it was me again at that age going through it. Stuff I try to push down or hide that I've been through. Never forget though because those are the things that have made me who I am today.. the mother the friend the sister the lover the artist the protector the hustler. Every circumstance that tried to break me built me. 100🌻

[@sarahcraig7713]

What a beautiful well spoken woman. I absolutly love her musiq. I find strength in her words. One love

[@Happyticcer]

Beautiful interview. Namaste.

[@kimberleychoudhury3358]

Mama Princess , I love you and your whole thing. This was so beautiful to watch I cried at the end...as a poor brown girl who has been through a lot of similar abuse you just give me so much inspiration and love.Kisses from a lil sister from Rio, Brasil.
