That's what pisses them off. She got away & lived her life FNF(f**k n****a free) whats sad is the same men who villify the man who gave tina a kidney justify the man who abused and traumatized her …
So it’s okay if a black woman suffers from abuse but godforbid if she finds true love and happiness with another man even if he is white? FQ you very much and happiest go to hell you hotep!
and we know cotdamn well it’s The same people who told us to be nice about Jim brown it’s truly crazy
Woke up to see that the discourse has already turned on Tina Turner and truly I hope people have the same energy for excavating the community that let Ike get away with it for nearly 2 decades. And the people performing on songs with lines like “eat the cake Anna Mae”
The fact that Tina Turner lived to tell her story is extraordinary. That she lived to die of old age is incredible. So many Black women do not survive the domestic violence that is too often sanctioned and accepted by people who look the other way
Nobody is perfect. Absolutely no one. And also there’s what she said *forty years ago* and then there’s what she did for Black folks simply by surviving and making her fierce, vibrant thriving public. Let’s not act like that’s nothing.
The thing about surviving domestic violence is that there is rarely any kind of transformative justice from the community that sanctioned it. We survivors live with that betrayal forever.
Let Tina Turner rest in peace And stop shitetalking about her
ps: If you are experiencing domestic violence, please know that there are people of all kinds who want to help. And it’s never too late to start over.

I don't blame Monica for being mad at Beyoncé. That Monica Lewinsky line will forever be cringe af (in Partition). As well as Jay-Z saying "I'm Ike Turner" and the "eat the cake Anna Mae" line from Drunk in Love.
Like wtf. Beyoncé's biggest inspiration is Tina Turner so why would she approve that line. That's what makes it even more weird. She literally met Tina Turner. She and Jay should have gotten more heat for those lines
AND Jay's artist (Rihanna) was beat up by Chris Brown. So just even more insensitive and tacky comparing himself to Ike.
(and Nicki too for the Rosa Parks and Malcolm X's daughter lines). And her line about Oprah:
But Nicki has always loved tearing black women down.

Right ear and right side of my cheek warm, holding my face in my hand feels loving, soothing
Woke up earlier with ease
New schedule aye
Love
“Eat the cake Anna Mae”
Prone to distractions & tangents
Once a person starts communicating in super heady terms I stop listening/reading unless I’m very passionate about the topic
Simplify often
There are parts of right now that I dreamed early this year
Fire in the hearth, fire on the stove, fire from a lighter. Man made fire. Fire from two sticks, a trailblazing wildfire. A mind ablaze, a fiery heart, a spirited soul. Flame.
Some of it’s literal, some of it’s figurative, all of it is what you make it
Inspired
Sirens, reminded of how there were firemen at the top of the mountain
That open and airy mental feeling that comes from connecting with someone that you understand and that understands you
We all have our own paths. No one can walk ours for us but it’s nice when people choose to walk with us
Keep going

Lyrics taken from genius
crazy in love:
Young Hov, y'all know when the flow is loco
Young B and the R-O-C, uh-oh
O.G. Big Homie, the one and only
Stick bony, but the pockets is fat like Tony Soprano
The ROC handle like Van Exel
I shake phonies, man, you can't get next to
The genuine article, I do not sing, though
I sling, though, if anything, I bling, yo
A star like Ringo, war like a Green Beret
You crazy? Bring your whole set
JAY-Z in the Range, crazy and deranged
They can't figure him out, they like, "Hey, is he insane?"
Yes, sir, I'm cut from a different cloth
My texture is the best fur, chinchilla
I've been iller than chain smokers
How you think I got the name Hova?
I been realer, the game's over
Fall back, Young
Ever since I made the change over to platinum
The game's been a wrap, one
deja vu:
I used to run base like Juan Pierre
Now I run the bass hi-hat and the snare
I used to bag girls like Birkin Bags
Now I bag B (Boy, you hurtin' that)
Brooklyn Bay where they birthed me at
Now I be everywhere, the nerve of rap
The audacity to have me with them curtains back
Me and B, she about to sting, stand back
….(two verses in this one)….
Yes, Hova's flow so unusual
Baby girl, you should already know
It's H-O, light up the dro
'Cause you gon' need help tryna study my bounce
Flow, blow, what's the difference?
One you take in vein while the other you sniffin'
It's still dope, po-po try to convict him
Thats a no-go, my dough keep the scales tippin'
Like 4-4s
Like I'm from the H-O-U-S-T-O-N
Blow wind, so Chicago of him
Is he the best ever? That's the argu-a-ment
I don't make the list, don't be mad at me
I just make the hits like a factory
I'm just one to one, nuttin' after me
No déjà vu, just me and my (Oh)
upgrade u:
I be's the d-boy who infiltrated all the corporate dudes
They call shots, I call audibles
Jacob the jeweler, baubles
Lorraine Schwartz oughta do
It's big ballin', baby, when I'm courtin' you (Woo)
I'm talkin' spy bags and fly pads
And rooms at the Bloomberg and rumors
You on the verge of a new merge
'Cause that rock on your finger's like a tumor
You can't fit your hand in your new purse
It's humorous to me, they watchin' and we just yachtin'
Island-hoppin' off the Amalfi coast, mafioso
"Hov, baby, you ever seen Saturn?"
"No, not the car, but everywhere we are"
You sure to see stars, this is high-level
Not eye-level, my bezel courtesy of Audemars
I order yours tomorrow, now look at the time I saved you
Mama, let me upgrade you
drunk in love:
That D'USSÉ is the shit, if I do say so myself
If I do say so myself, if I do say so myself
Hold up, stumble all in the house, time to back up all of that mouth
That you had all in the car, talkin' 'bout you the baddest bitch thus far
Talkin' 'bout you be reppin' that Third, I wanna see all the shit that I heard
Know I sling Clint Eastwood, hope you can handle this curve, uh
Foreplay in a foyer, fucked up my Warhol
Slid the panties right to the side, ain't got the time to take drawers off
On sight
Catch a charge, I might
Beat the box up like Mike in '97, I bite
I'm Ike Turner, turn up, baby, no, I don't play
"Now eat the cake, Anna Mae," said, "Eat the cake, Anna Mae"
I'm nice
For y'all to reach these heights
You gon' need G3, 4, 5, 6 flights
Sleep tight
We sex again in the mornin'
Your breasteses is my breakfast, we goin' in
that’s how you like it:
I know you heard I'm a gangsta
They say, "Stay away from them gangstas"
They never change up or pull they pants up
Well, baby girl, put ya foot down
Don't let 'em push you around
You know what you like
Baby thug, you know wrong from right
And you done felt wrong before
This can't be what it feel like
And they don't really know what you feel like, for instance
They don't know the difference between real life
And the music videos and the raggedy magazines
They have it **** badder than he seems
All they see is my baggy jeans, my attitude
I ain't mad at you, it's just my glide
Way I wear my hat to the side
The way I lean real low when I ride
That's why in my mind
They like my walk
My accent from New York
My way of thinking is slightly off
They like the way he floss
Leave the block on a bike, he come back in a Porsche
But of course
But most of all, they like my honesty
Integrity, my loyalty
Young Hova and the letter B
How you like that, huh?

Incoming Text for @zoesaldana and @rosariodawson : Hey, Zoe & Rosario! I want to show you a number that will explain why I'm heartless with you two and refuse to sit with you. Why am I rejecting you? This is the answer: "$400 billion in AUM (assets under management)." And you wonder why I'm so heartless with you. You are disrespectful and you want to open the door to the white oppressors so they can steal all this wealth from Black and Latino people. You might think what you are doing is cool, but it is a crime against humanity. You two are lucky you are not getting shot for being two treacherous bitches. I hope this helps you see clearly who you're fucking with. I'm not a punk, and if you ever come to me with that disrespect, you better come with guns because I will shoot on sight like "THE FUCK DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?"--😂 ’Eat the cake, Anna Mae.’😂. I'm a freedom fighter, not a punk from the entertainment world. I have $400 billion, and I don't tolerate disrespect. You should consider yourselves lucky that I'm rejecting you; that's the only way you avoid my bullets. I don't tolerate disrespect. So it's better you stay where you are and I stay as far away from you as possible. That way, no one gets shot and everyone is happy. I'm a very dangerous man, never forget that. And Christina Santini is young and soft right now, but she will grow up to become even more dangerous than me. In the year 2044, she will scare everyone in her path. People will say things like, "Who is this person? This is not Christina. Do you remember when she used to be very soft? Now she scares everyone with her armed forces."

🕊️ RIP to a bold and creative survivor. 🎶 Now can we PLEASE stop using her abuse as a joke with the oft quipped " Eat the cake, Anna Mae" line? She didn't deserve that living and definitely doesn't deserve that while passed away. I always wondered how she felt about various mediums using that line in their "jokes" and references.

You're runnin' around
You know better daddy
I can't stand it
Got cancer sick
What's it like to live with me here every fucking day?
This chaos is killing me
They didn’t live long lives but they lived meaningful lives
The feather at your feet
And we both know, you loved the taste of my world
But you ran back to your corner
Where you trip over your lines
Look left, look right, no room to hide
On the boundary, baby
Pickin' up their knick-knacks when they can't see straight
hear the drummer get wicked
ways to blaze your brain and train ya
Just as well could be undercover
Backstabbed
Sad to say I got sold down the river
Still some quiver when I deliver
Lies, scandalizin', basing, traits of hatin', celebrating with Satan?
Caught in the race against time, the pit and the pendulum
How to fight the power, cannot run and hide
“…but it shouldn't be suicide.”
When I get mad, I put it down on a pad, huh
Dropping a bomb, brain game, intellectual Vietnam
Move as a team, never move alone
But welcome to the Terrordome
“You gotta make me come.”
Something’s wrong, something is not quite right
Jupiter(expansion my dudes)
Secret societies
"Your feet are finally on the ground," he said
(Stood with those girls before)
(The hair in pairs it just got nasty)
(And now those girls are gone)
It's the most alone you felt
I'm glad I could help
But it may be the constellation that shows us where we are
And we lay, nocturnal
(Speculate what we feel)
Never give away what you always wanted.
I've been drinking, I've been drinking, I get filthy when that liquor get into me
Feeling like an animal with these cameras all in my grill
“How the hell did this shit happen?"
If you scared, call that reverend
gangster wife
I wanna see all that shit that I heard
On sight, catch a charge I might
Now eat the cake, Anna Mae
There are no boundaries on what I can feel. LOOK AT YOUR WORLD IT TEACHES ME NOTHING. As a woman I was taught to be hungry. Women are well acquainted with thirst. Yeah we could Eat just about anything. We'd even eat your hate up like love. (These are kathleeen Hanna’s caps, not mine)
And I'm screaming at my brother on a cell phone
I'm saying nothing in the past or future Ever will feel like today
Now I'm hunched over a typewriter
I guess you'd call that paintin' in a cave
And now my ashtray's overflowing
I'm still staring at a clean white page
I'll fight like hell, to hide that I'm givin' up
Confessions from the cab, a habit that I got from dad
We protect our little fictions like it's all we are.
Mix blood with me
What part of you don't get to have me do you not understand
The October fields
Such a secret
And who would believe it
She's such a seeker & no one believed her
The Jean Genie loves chimney stacks
Keeps all your dead hair for making up underwear
I can't help it. I'm still in love with you. (6:15 song of the day, but also 3:14/14 which feels symbolic )
I'm rich: Rich, rich, rich(6:15 song of the day)
The walls are always speakin'
Let me change my words; show me where it hurts.
I long to see the morning light color in your face so dreamily
So don't you go and say goodbye, and don't you ever leave
But there’s got to be an opening somewhere here in front of me through This maze of ugliness and greed
This place is always such a mess
I think her death, it must be killing me
Now the drugs don’t work they just make you worse
Just let me know and I’ll sing in your ear again
I read you should never leave a fight unresolved
“See what I'm saying?
I don't know, I just don't feel right, y'all, I don't know
I'm having flashbacks, feeling bugged out
Smoking mad cigarettes and shit
Nah, I don't wanna go in... I don't want the clank
I don't wanna go in the hospital
It's, yeah, don't... I just feel like I'm lost In my own reality like, nah... know what I mean?”
Needn’t guess I’ll confess
Super logical this, super logical that
Yeah crazy, lurkin in the shadows
With that 22 automatic rap you pack, what?
You ain't hittin' with that wack shit you kickin'
Straight from the beginning, of the game
All the way to the ninth inning, I bring the pain
If I could be more like you, I would but I can't and I'm glad about that
“What if someone had asked Picasso not to be sad?There would be no blue period.”
