The tyler the creators, cynthia erivos, the doja cats, the toby oniyitan/uncle tobys (monaleao’s mgr) and the antiBlack American pipeline.
Why is it so often that we see so many melanated first-gen immigrants in the entertainment industry have such disparaging, anti-Black American tweets? What’s this pipeline of this being such a pattern with so many Black first-gen individuals?
In 2025, the whole “it’s the white media” is played out in excusing the behavior of believing the stereotypes and then acting out on said stereotypes when coming here. With Michael Jackson, Tina Turner, Michael Jordan, Whitney Houston, Beyoncé, Denzel Washington, Angela Bassett, Dr King, Malcolm X, Toni Morrison, Oprah, Angela Davis and Soul Train, The Cosby Show, A Different World, The Jeffersons, Moesha, Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and a slew of other positive media of us is shown all across the globe that represents us, then that can no longer be the default. And in general, y’all are waaay too young to be having such 1960s views of Black Americans like that.Yall are not grandparents…yall barely 30 having a modern day Jim Crow brain. What’s the deal?!
….going into this…
The Tyler the Creators and the Rorys in both the industry and outside of it…Tyler is the “black friend” Rory speaks about. And Rory is the friend of the Tylers.
“I was too white for the Black kids and I was too Black for the white kids.” “Black girls didn’t like me because I was a nerd.”
No, the Black kids didn’t mess with you because you hated them! And the Black girls absolutely saw you as a cornball because you were antiBlack! You had internalized Black hate and it oozed out of you and they picked up on that and they wanted nothing to do with you. But clearly the white kids magnetized to you and you felt more camaraderie with them because yall shared one thing: antiBlackness.
Of course you flocked to them because they gleefully tolerated you within their circle because they also knew you had internalized hatred for your own people that would work to their racist benefit.
And let’s get one thing straight — that tolerance is not acceptance or respect. They put up with you because you, as a Black person, psychologically absolves them of their racism because you’re Black. YOU are their cognitive dissonance. And then it can go even deeper with Black people who are immigrants to our country (also like Monaleo’s mgr. since we’re talking about the music industry) holding such antiBlack American views and how that appeases and coddles white racists. White people like this don’t see themselves as racists and antiBlack because a Tyler is the exception—the exception of “see, I listen to Tyler, I can’t be racist because he’s Black”, “my best friend is Black.”
The Tylers of the world Seeking the white gaze while actively leaching off of Black American culture is a pipeline that is a pattern that almost 100% happens way too often. More directly when it’s so targeted and directed to Black American women (is something else).
AND when Black people like this mentally have this trans-racial idea of themselves, then they now view themselves as “the good/different Black” person versus “those Blacks” that racists white people categorize.
The “I was too white for the Black kids and I was too Black for the white kids.” “Black girls didn’t like me because I was a nerd” All fits with Tyler the Creator.
these statements are wash, rinse and repeat when in actuality, you held antiBlack views and sentiments as a Black person against other Black people and that’s why no Black person wanted to mess with you. That self-hatred is felt and discerned and those other Black kids steered far away from you because of it. You not getting befriended by Black people had absolutely nothing to do with your personality or being introverted, alternative or “different”. You didn’t like the people within your own community and that energy is like repellant.
And to the rorys…this is such an ugly acceptance from some of my people that the monster like Rory just feeds and festers and grows from us allowing it that they know they won’t have any type of negative impact. The rorys can come later and date a Black woman and have mixed race kids and they’ll be fine even with their tweets disparaging Black women. These are the Thomas Jefferson descendants.
The inner circles and fanbases that are shared between the Tylers and Dojas and the Rorys speak volumes.
