How many times will we call your name Mr Raymond?? Always treating the UK like bread 😭. If I catch you and your skates in this London again without a microphone in your hand!!?
Interesting that Breonna Taylor’s death and the attempted murder of Meg Thee Stallion have both been memeified. It’s as if violence against Black women isn’t taken seriously 🙃🌚
Bisan basically said she’s bed ridden & quite literally dying. Motaz said he’s given up on life & is waiting for his turn to be martyred & we’re here doing should I/shouldn’t or crying about whataboutism
Serena Williams. An actual “boss babe” just told the world not 2 days ago she doesn’t want to give up tennis but she has to for the sake of expanding her family. Even said she knows she wouldn’t have to if she was a man. Tell us again how motherhood is soft life 😂 pls.
Sorry to say but the only correct answer is Nicki Minaj. She spun Kanye West so badly on “New Body” Kanye refused to release the track AND went on a spree of having it removed from TikTok for MONTHS 💀💀
Sorry I’m not blaming Faye. Millie saw a kiss and look she trusted him anyway and it backfired. Kaz saw a kiss and she was right. Abi saw a kiss and it was also correct. HOW WAS FAYE TO KNOW.

Hello. Hi. In exactly one month it will be two years since Grenfell happened. This is your reminder that even after 23months this government refuses to hold those responsible, accountable for the deaths of 72 (a lie) men, women and children.
Disabled residents of Milford Towers are trapped on the SEVENTH FLOOR without lift access.
✊🏿We took our fight to
@LewishamCouncil
to demand that every resident has as safe place to call home.

documentary here:
Whitney hates that she considers her friend in the small things and it’s not reciprocated. Whit didn’t put Ty and Ella down out of loyalty and her people didn’t do the same. It’s not about the shower, it’s not the game, it’s the principle
#LoveIsland
Sọ̀rọ̀ sókè is actually a motto. Calling out BS in systems, yes, but also for yourself. Speak up when you want something, speak up when your personal boundaries are being disrespected, speak up (and louder) when people try to silence you. An ACTUAL motto
#EndSARS
Rest in Peace to all the victims of SARS. The names we know, don’t know. From last year, afterwards and from the decades before 🖤🕊 You and your loved ones truly deserved better.
Wedding that was supposed to start at 11am... neither bride, nor groom, or even bridesmaids are dressed. Venue isn’t set up. Guests are here. If I scrim
Jackie Aina is disgusting for that. Her and her fellow Nigerian American celebs were digitally flogged to speak up... constantly using Nigerianess for profit but mute when your own need you. Nasty. The lot of them.
“I’m just glad a Black man got away with killing a white woman for once. It felt like a win.” As a woman, saying that out loud… you don’t think you’re tapped?
I don’t like how Richard Okorogheye’s mum is being made to feel like her English (which is perfectly fine pls) or her accent are the reasons why the police are finding it hard to locate her son. What kind of BS is that
I really need people to stop wishing “black features” on Meghan Markle’s and Prince Harry’s baby as if it’s some type of “punishment” for the royal family.
Sidenote guys. Whatever you do, never fly WizzAir. It’s better to not fly at all than to fly with them. Infact. Have you tried swimming to your destination? Give that a go instead.
Summer is dumb. Because she knows Indiyah & Dami are top two couple & probably not two either. So does she think she’d come in & we’d allow her to stay in for long?? Like she didn’t think this through. She is not smelling that 50k and now neither is Dami 💀 h8 2 c it
#LoveIsland
My friend’s wife just gave birth to their 4th child and at the naming ceremony he just gave her a new Audi and a trip to Dubai. 5* stay. Pamper package included.
People died. A whole generation of Nigerians FOREVER traumatised just so Jackie Aina could sell a candle you know. There is no insult deep enough I could say right now. I am fucking spun 😂
Got headhunted for a company and one of the perks is team events… apparently, recently they all went to a Millwall FC game… as a Black South Londoner my dear that is not selling your company to me at ALLLL 😭
All the money in the world doesn’t make that life soft. Many find it rewarding, many also regret having kids. But one thing both sides will agree on is that motherhood is not soft life. Pls!!
I just know the person that came up with that term is livid at how you pipo use it.
Grenfell was really 4 years ago today. I hope peace NEVER locates those that had a hand in killing all those people, delaying justice & mistreating survivors.
Carly the farming lady has raised almost £30,000 in just a few hours. Whoever salted her land so she couldn’t help people again I hope the rest of their life is filled with a series of unfortunate events. For the wickedry they intended, joy must never locate them in this life.
1) Jason can be easily poisoned. Just hoovering up anything anyhow.
2) Kanaan is bare cheeky. Very chatty for someone that can’t cook
3) LATEEF >>>>>>>>>>>>
There was that show about rich Asians on Netflix and from time to time my body shakes when I remember that the husband let his wife get flogged & disrespected for YEARS by his family for not getting pregnant even though he knew he was the infertile one.
I actually miss MTV Base days. We don’t appreciate music videos the way we used to 😭 these days I will watch a music video once or twice then it’s back to Spotify. MTV Base had us learning choreo and waiting 40 minutes hoping to catch music videos/songs we loved
No because Sh*’C*rri was liking tweets saying Sh3lly-Ann looked like Lil Wayne & was egging on Black Americans to be xenophobic towards Jamaicans. All of a sudden it’s “y’all were hating on her for no reason”. Forgiving & forgetting is fine o but let’s not rewrite history TODAY
Hello hi Christians. People die every day. As in every second of every hour of every day. Death is the one thing in this life that is guaranteed.
There isn’t a significant increase in death around Halloween. If anything it’s more around Christmas. Find empathy. Locate shame.
They’re gonna whack Tiwa and she’s going to deserve it I’m afraid. She has to pay for her crimes. How can you take a song from an album called Black Is King and sing it to the white one whose family scattered our lives omgosh 💀 get her again. Get hah for me!
That woman that tweeted she gave birth to 3 kids in 3 years and breastfed all of them ontop of doing 50,000 other things because she’s strong has been haunting me all day. God (and I cannot stress this enough) forbid.
Love Is Blind UK won’t work in the same way because you’d (generally) be able to tell the difference between a white man from Bermondsey and a Black man from Peckham. Londoners have too many give aways so it would be fun if it was a mixed UK bag of contestants
I wanted authentic stories that children of African AND Afro-Caribbean heritage in the diaspora could relate to & read in their mother tongues so I wrote a book:
“There’s Rice At Home” 🍚 ➡️🏠
Available on Amazon, Barnes & Nobles, Waterstones & them man!
#TheresRiceAtHome
If it’s not Monzo asking you to get an overdraft, it’s Experian telling you you’re eligible for new credit cards, or PayPal inviting you to try PayPal credit.
The lot of them are wicked.
Rebecca Ikumelo should be home with her children prepping for Christmas. She wanted to end the year on a high like the rest of you but because of shitty security, dumb ass police & wreckless behaviour from people who couldn’t fucking behave, she was robbed of that & her life.
Brutal murder travels around the world my son David Dances to honor and pay tribute to George and His Family and all Acts of Racism and Discrimination that happen on a daily basis in America.

If Premier Gaou is a break up song then pls I don’t wanna hear anything about Last Last being played at weddings ever again. Clearly we are all unserious people
Rest In Peace to all who were killed at Lekki Tollgate 3 months ago today and to all those killed in the weeks following - the ones whose names we know and don’t know. To those who were injured, traumatised, lost loved ones you’re forever on my mind ♥️
#EndSARS
I’m glad Mo Farah got to tell his own story, on his own terms & in his own time. What a cross to bear at such a young age & for so many years.
I’m also thankful he had a supportive teacher in Mr Watkinson.
Happy February! In Yorùbá the month of February is known as the month of profit in our homes. Money, fertility if you so desire, all of that. May all forms of profit that we desire locate our homes this month! 🙏🏾
To say Meghan Markle “looks like most of the people in the commonwealth” is so tapped of David Olusoga to say the least.
THAT is a white passing mixed woman and has been all her life until 6 years ago. She does not look like Boluwatife, Tafadzwa or Priyanka. Get lost.
Someone mentioned Azryah’s name in the BkChat space yesterday and I legit forgot she was even on there. The way she distanced herself from that kitchenette?? 💀💀 She was truly Molly Mae’s blueprint!
I get that homeless shelters need to run.. but charging people who don’t have anywhere to live or any income, £17+ a night is ridiculous. Like. Is there no other way because that is wayward.
ipaper is wicked cuz they did this headline & hid the article behind a paywall. His son has ADHD & was failing abysmally in public school. The only place that could take care of him as needed was that private school. The same school also clocked the kid has dyslexia & dysgraphia
Between Joe Jonas, Ashton & Mila and now Jonathan Majors, it’s clear Hollywood’s PR folx are also on strike. These are some of the dumbest PR moves ever no way seasoned people in that industry planned this?? If they did, I’m proper insulted that they think we are that dumb 💀
