WHAT HAPPENED TO TEAIRRA MARI ? - THE FALL OF A PRINCESS.. 👑

• Take Me Out

[@Princessdollamanda]

She should’ve gotten a chance to grow into her artistry and they basically said F her. She had potential and she had stage presence, she just needed more artist development

[@iconicallyiconic]

Agreed 🩷

[@Princessdollamanda]

@@stacyr4768 what does her attitude have to do with her being dropped from the label ? How many white/other artists have terrible attitudes in their GROWN age and their fans still support them and labels push them continuously ? and we have PROOF they’re rude and nasty… for instance how rude Cardi B is. even if she did have an “attitude” she was 17 not a grown woman and she was dealing with a lot, it’s like yall will make any and every excuse for people of other races but when it comes to black women/teens they have to be perfect

[@Princessdollamanda]

@@material-cheshirekhatter2413 BECAUSE I DID! I know y’all have this rabid obsession with Ms. Cardi and believe she can do no wrong and that is EXACTLY MY POINT! it’s acceptable for the Hispanic light skin girl to be a low class di r t bag and make colorist derogatory comments about black women and y’all jump to her defense but black women have one time to mess and y’all projection of self ha t3 is shown HEAVILY with how much disdain y’all have for them. People compare and contrast all the time. It’s been done since the beginning of time what makes you think that your girl is so special that she can’t be compared to anyone ? 😂😂😂😂😂😂

I always have a soft spot for Tierra Marie. She should have been so much bigger and deserved way more success. Love N Hip Hop should have been her stepping stone for a comeback. Unfortunately between toxic men/relationship and alcoholism it didnt happen.

[@milaakajau861]

Also No Daddy is a song that I can't believe they thought was a good idea to release 😒 and think parents would purchase that album. why wasn't Rihanna singing about the struggles she faced in her upbringing ? but Teairra had to sing about having no father around? and I love Rihanna down . but I don't like the image they pushed onto Teairra as if she was some wild girl is absurd if you listen to Rih's MOTS album and Teairra's Album they both have songs called "Lala" however Rihanna's is an upbeat sound even though the songs are singing something similar, but Rihanna's is more age appropriate- and she isn't singing about s e x all throughout the album

[@iamashleyyvette]

Agreed!

[@positivelypinky]

Teairra was promoted as fast and Rihanna was promoted as the girl next door, virginal. Unfortunate, I love both.

[@TDior.]

And her debut charted higher than Rihanna’s !!!

[@TrinaRayne]

I always say this, but Teairra Mari was beyond her time. Not too many female R&B singers were as raw as Teairra, when it came to lyrics. Rhianna came out at a perfect time, especially since Pop music was such a huge genre at the time as well. If Teairra would’ve came out in the late 2010’s or early 2020’s I’m sure she would’ve had a bigger career. Teairra Mari doesn’t get her flowers, since I felt like she paved a way for a lot of current R&B girlies.

[@mindyourmanners3784]

I feel like there was some underlying colorism with why she wasn't marketed the way Rihanna was, like why did Teairra have to sing about having " No Daddy "? 🙄 I loved the album, but that song was so stereotypical that it turned a lot of people off from album like you said. Why couldn't she have multiple dance hits and songs that weren't about $3x. I agree with you on her having a ballad that would've been PERFECT for her especially since she had the vocals for it

[@DabsDans]

She was marketed as the around the way hood chick... the song was to grab girls in her sit

[@milaakajau861]

Agreed and the fact that she didn't want to sing those songs and wanted something different explains a lot especially considering the songs she sung after she was dropped from the label, just because someone comes from the hood doesn't mean they want to sing about it all the time and that is what artistry is about but they often put black artist in a box

[@mindyourmanners3784]

@@missmack2328 Rihanna and Teairra Mari are the same complexion and have THE SAME EYE color ??🤔🤔 So green and brown eyes are the same now ?? and Rihanna also tans she is LIGHT SKIN and Teairra is BROWN SKIN. you might want to get your eyes checked and a color test because never was brown and green the same eediot gyal 😂😂😂😂you want to be delusional and dismiss how the industry moves then fine but please state facts

[@leiiib]

I didn’t know her grandmother was a background singer for Aretha Franklin 😲. Thank you for doing your research when making these videos and not just reading from Wikipedia like a lot of these other KZbinrs Teairra could sing and had the full package and the song “ No Daddy “ was just a no no because of the lyrics and the image that was pushed onto her it was almost like Rihanna could be the carefree young teen while Teairra was forced to take on the hood girl image because of where she was from and she didn’t want to sing about that as she said

[@nicolesherman8974]

She’s actually really talented. I really wished she had a steady career. I’m still annoyed at the way Princess treated her in Love and Hip Hop about her yeast infection. That was elementary of her to do all that 😕.

[@iconicallyiconic]

Disgusting behavior. I hated that she was on there 😩

[@GameLover-pz5zc]

I think Princess did that because Teairra came there being messy at Ray-J's birthday party, asking for her stuff at the middle of the event. I don't agree with trying to embarass someone, just saying.

[@milaakajau861]

She has such clarity in her voice and enunciates perfectly I loved Teairra Mari and thought she was going to be huge especially after the Destiny's Child tribute but I feel like real authentic talent was slowly fading out and they were bringing in people who just had a certain look and real music was going out of style

[@pr3ttyyrickyy91]

One thing! Teairra Mari ALWAYS COULD SING!!! Wish she had the chance the chance to grow! I always liked the song she released while she was doing love & hip-hop too

[@kcfmsh]

She had SO much potential, i went to her first album signing at the virgin megastore back in the day and she was so beautiful and just had that rising star quality. I wish the industry really gave her a fair shot.

[@kammyr4082]

Rihanna didnt have the push from the label like TM. Tierra was more popular during their beginning stages. Rihanna had to use the money made from pon de replay to pay for her own song SOS. Rihanna had WORK ETHIC! She didnt stop working honestly. Thats why we got an album every single year from her up until 2013...

[@leiiib]

Rihanna released an album every year because she wanted out of her contract and to be off the label which is why she hasn’t released much music since then because she hated having to release an album back to back, she was extremely exhausted. She is indeed a hard worker, but again Rihanna was given different songs and no Teairra was more popular with the label not the audience because of the songs they gave her ( which is literally stated in the video ) she wanted to sing love songs and dance but they forced the hood girl image on her because of where she came from. Unlike today parents watched the music their kids listened to and weren’t going to purchase an album with a young girl singing about S3 x and a Dr IG de@l!ng bf or having no father around … songs written by of course … men

[@leiiib]

@@tamyrah9124 Exactly! I agree with all of this, as someone who loves Rih and purchased every album , went to concerts, tours etc.When she first came on the scene the first 2 albums went gold and back then that was considered a flop, she was given multiple chances to show she had star potential and given the songs ( which play a major part ), image push through media, magazines, commercials, movie cameos (Bring It On) etc. to become the Rihanna we have today. I don’t know why some people act oblivious to those facts

[@fan7708]

I don’t think Tierra would’ve been as popular as Rihanna tho. But she definitely deserved a chance and would’ve been a good R&B act for the late 2000’s.

[@iamashleyyvette]

I was 17 when Teairra Mari debuted…same age as her. I feel like I grew up with her at the same time that she was going through so much. She was and still is that girl! So as someone who was around when she first debuted…they should’ve released ‘PHONE BOOTH’ as the second single. They played the song in Atlanta and myself and other teen girls were feeling it. They messed up. They wanted her to go Pop automatically but they should’ve taken the R&B route FIRST. She would’ve been a younger Keyshia Cole. No Daddy was great but it should’ve been the THIRD single. Phone Booth was perfect for older teen girls. Monica had a song called Street Symphony at the age of 16 in the NINETIES. Phone Booth would’ve been fine. Sponsor was such a good song and I remember when she was dropping videos and songs she did a remix to ‘Daddy,s Home’ that was great. I was in college at this time. This is when she was working with Rico Love. I also think she was set up on Love and Hip Hop. After that show her image was NEVER the same. She probably should’ve just joined the love and hip hop New York cast like she was originally supposed to. But…I will say in the early blog days it was reported that she was a party girl. I think it just caught up with her. I’m still rooting for her.

[@himynameiscat1795]

In my opinion she trusted and befriended the wrong people ( Ray J, Princess and Cisco) and she dated the wrong men. Black women need to be more strategic with who they date because it has more negative consequences compared to white women who date wrong. She should’ve followed the Eve route

[@mindyourmanners3784]

There was no JB around at the time and even if she were to be signed to Island Def Jam her going on tour with JB at the age of 21 with a 15 year old would not make sense because of the different crowds and music that was catered to different age groups

[@marlenaganache]

She really could’ve popped! All she needed was better writers to cultivate her sound, more promotion, and support from her label. Rihanna had all the above. The label gave her time to develop in her sound, style, and really grow into a star.

[@RapNB2011]

Not really. Def Jam was about to drop Rih after her A Girl Like Me album failed to meet their expectations sales wises. Rih was the one funding the GGGB album with her own budget. If anything it just shows that sometimes you have to get sh*t done on your own and no rely on labels to do that for you, if you believe in your career.

Now I am about to go blast this album lol A video to Act Right would've been the perfect r&b follow up, it could've had someone like Omarion or Mario as her love interest and a winter love story. What you said about teens being forced to grow up is so true it's like they don't care that they're in their developmental years and want to push adulthood onto them while also not wanting people who are of age to be in the industry it's so weird

She's talented. She can sing she performs well. I think it's a blessing in disguise that she got dropped because most artists are destroyed by the labels. It seems that they picked Rihanna because she's exotic. They should've allowed Teairra to grow and they should've promoted her more. It's funny that Rihanna was considered as appropriate for kids but she's provocative now. That's not a problem but Teairra deserved better.

I disagree. It was due to beyonce and Jay z that tearra failed. Beyonce saw T as competition and cut her down before she could really pop. She thought Rihanna would fail hence why she told LA to push her instead. She's in the long list of black female singers done dirty by those two. It'll all come out in time.
