"Don't call me, after the robbery, and say 'how you feelin’? You wanna know how I'm feelin? Come by the house."
"I’m so tired of Black women feeling that when our men get rich, they’re going to leave them for a woman of a different race. It wasn’t funny when Kanye said [on ‘Gold Digger’], ‘When he get on, he’ll leave your a** for a white girl’ — and Kanye happens to be with a white girl now. It wasn’t funny when he said it; it was the f***ing truth.”
“I think he’s a racist, misogynist pig. This is a stain on me. My femininity feels stained. I feel stained as a woman, I feel mishandled, I feel mistreated, I feel dirty. I feel very f**king low.”
“That’s above my pay grade, so to speak. I can’t make those kind of decisions."
"Because it's important to me. I saw people from my community growing up in Compton. They were there one day, and not there the next day."
"Did your ignorant a** listen to the whole interview? And that's what I hate about my people, Black people, we just take whatever and run with it."
"Watch myself? I'm The Real. No, I'm joking."
“But when it's powerful, timing is everything, and for me the Freddie Gray thing was the one that tipped me off. It was like something just exploded. It was like [snaps] now was the time. Enough is enough.”
“It’s the way the travesties are handled, because of course in any society you’re going to have legal mishaps. It’s almost as though no one even considers the thought of accountability. It’s almost like, ‘Yeah, what are you gonna expect? Of course he’s gonna get off. It’s a Black guy and a cop.’ It’s just complete disregard for basic human rights.”
"I didn't think he was saying those things about me. But he says those comments about a lot of women — really derogatory things. Someone who is that simplistic to judge things off of surface is not someone I want running my country."
“And that's why a stylist, for me, is just a waste of money. It would take away from my creative side. And the most important thing about fashion is being creative and being able to have your own ideas.”
