Dear darkskinned women, rally around artists like this young lady. We have the power to change the narrative by putting our coins behind women who represent us. Don't wait for the mainstream to push people like her...companies recognize how and what you spend your money on. When you support her, they notice
emjay it’s a video she uploaded just talking about how she wasn’t happy with how her Disney career or her career in general was going and all the foul and disrespectful things that happened during those times. If you want to watch it just look up her name and I’m sure it’ll show her most recent video. I hope I helped :)
agust,d creator I agree 1000000% I wish society didn’t make them feel that way I guess being in a New Yorker and growing up a mixed Latina with only black friends and Hispanic friends and Jewish and Asian everything was such a melting pot I don’t think any of us noticed anyone’s race or color that’s real talk but love the song so gorgeous
Here after seeing her live stream about her struggle with disney. The emotion in this song and video is just too real. This is the black woman national anthem for Gen z and i don't want to hear otherwise thank you. we got you and we love you coco, keep eating for us!!!
I've been following coco since she was a little girl. I feel her and I see how's shes hurting. She's so underrated and the industry is so cutthroat. It's easy to make it as a different race or color. She has so much to offer the world but they only want to see black women rachet or wild and doing some off the wall shit to rise to the top. You'll make it coco I promise. #cocojones #coco #viral #POSITIVEVIBES
Yes she is amazing!! I cried to this song because it’s exactly what a dark skin woman goes through in corporate America too. As a whole we all endure. It takes a lot of strength to keep going. But we must! You got this and you inspire me to keep going too!
I know what this song is about colorism about other people that don't like black and there trying to bring down most of of us black women down but we are fighting and praying for peace and we already have value because we love our skin and that goes for anybody
If that is the case then that is so sad, it hurts me. In my eyes Coco has always been a radiant, beautiful, dark skinned, young lady. She's too young to be so weighed down in this way, feeling so defeated
Tracy Williams i love her skin complexion she has always been gorgeous to me god doesn’t see a skin color so why should we heck i wish my skin was darker I absolutely adore all shades of melanin
This line did it for me: “Am I just too much to handle? No, I’m just too much to stop.” When you question yourself unnecessarily and your soul has to remind you who you are... 👌🏽#Genius
Her experience is from her Disney days following the Let it Shine movie in 2012. She was supposed to get more than that show, but they just threw all the plans involving her away. U should go watch her vid abt what rly happened from abt a couple of weeks ago.
I'm not black but i'm a woman and listening to this song makes me feel something deeper than any cheesy love song could, point blank period. The standards in society on women and especially women of color are fucking crazy. It's like you have to be absolutely perfect and still get blamed or cheated on. Her voice makes my soul shake. This song should be everywhere.
@@laurenmobo5280 they put "poc" to make THEMSELVES feel comfortable. They need to now when a racist looks at me (a blk person) im not a "poc" im not even afro-american i am blk point blank. They will never understand tho so its no need in explanin
It’s so upsetting that we, as black women, can’t even be happy with doing what we truly love because there’s always that lingering question in the back of our heads (are they gonna work with me because I’m dark skin?) They look straight pass our talent, drive and work ethic like it’s nothing. But keep pushing and showing these people what you about. The opportunity of a lifetime will come along and we gone see you blow up Coco. ❤️
This makes me cry because it shows the struggle and it makes me sad that black women have to go through this every day. Doubting themselves. Thinking that have to be somebody else. My first can I comment I didn't understand what this was about but as I replayed the song I got it and no your melanin is not offensive. It's beautiful. Keep on Shining
Just mad the movie wasn't exactly like the book. How you have the boy go in the car for a brush, instead of to console the young lady? Seems dumb! But yes this sing was great!
Coco Jones, V Bozeman, and Danielle Brooke need a song together! Empowering black woman is what we need more of in today’s society. Too many people disrespecting, discouraging, and unappreciative towards black woman.
yaaaassssss!!!!! add Savannah Cristina to that song too!!!! all these ladies are underrated and way better as artist than more than half these main stream artists out now.
EXTREMELY UNDERRATED due to COLORISM.... Name at least 10 dark skinned female artist being pushed by the industry... Now name 10 light skinned or white female artists .... which list is easier?? Not accidental!! One of the reasons people were so excited about Normani... another underrated dark skin sister
She's so beautiful. Reminds me of Jennifer Hudson in the face. I'm so glad she's still making music...her voice has been on 10 since she was a child. Hope she keeps pushing.
I love the instrumentals of this piece that Coco wrote, because this captures how she's just wanting to allow us to witness her being a grown woman. The only comentart that I have as someone who has been a fan of hers since she was still on her Disney day's her instrumentalist technique is riviting, and if I ever had the chance to work with her. I would give her the best of my personal stories for her vocalism, because of how detrimental it is for her to come from as a female.
Truth be told, if this girl was a light skin or mixed she would've been a big thing out here, its so sad that she's been slept on! This young lady is very talented and beautiful but she's so underrated! Its ugly truth that dark skinned women struggles real had to make it in this industry!

What you want from me What you need me to be, yeah
I still think her and Jennifer Hudson are related lol 😂 It wouldn’t be a bad thing and neither would a collaboration I would love to see that That would be 🔥🔥🔥🔥😍🔥😍
For me being a darkskin female this hit home for pointing out colorism even though it doesn't really say it you really have to listen to understand it. Love this song👏👏. Coco Jones looks beautiful 😍😍😍
elle a quelque chose de sérieux... une force avec laquelle il faut compter... j'ai quelque chose en elle quand je l'ai vue pour la première fois... Amen
I love this!!!! This is that raw side of her that no one has ever seen. She has a gigantic amount of talent, but it’s so shaded in this bullshit they call music now!! Keep doing your thing girl!!!!!
The Anonymous Black Kid hello! I saw you on instagram when you made that statement about the lovelyti bonnet picture and I totally agree. Also I agree with your statement rn
The Anonymous Black Kid because she hasn’t been making music like that 👌🏾 she can sing don’t get me wrong , but if she would put out more songs then maybe ppl would notice her a lot more💯 because I’m not gonna lie I literally forgot about her 💀 until I listened to this^
"what you want from me, what you need me to be" - This song is more than melanin/skin color. This is about society's standards and how people try to make us fit into boxes. We are turned into little characters who are pulled here and there, our selves forgotten in the process. Thank you for singing such a beautiful song with honest and raw lyrics! Thank you. I really needed to hear this.
I just finished watching her “What Really Happened” video & this song just makes so much more sense. More power to you, Queen. I’m going on a Coco binge. ❤️
It's a shame that women of color have to struggle this hard when it comes to doing what they love. SMH, don't stop bbg! Keep doing what you're doing! If they won't give you the attention that you deserve, then you better take it on your own. Just don't do what many others have done and sell out. You have my respect and God's hand will guide you as long as you keep him close. Whew girl... your future is brighter than you think, but it's all up to you to determine how bright it becomes in the end. 💞
I don’t think it has to do with “woman of color.” It’s all colors who struggle with becoming mainstream. Besides that I gotta or agree! It’s a shame people with this amount of talent are still being held behind. Meanwhile we have people mainstream like Selena Gomez that can’t sing at all
Coco you are talented and God gave you this gift for a reason one day you will make it big God willing just keep God in your life and this song was very powerful I cried keep doing what makes you happy and surround yourself with the people you love
it's makiyah right but i feel like if you gain the world then youll lose your soul keep god in everything you do because he is what matters especially in times we are living in rn the world has gotten so far from god and end times is approaching as long as shes making money and shes able to support herself and her family then she shouldn’t care what the world thinks
"Is my Melanin offensive?". I felt it👐🏾🤞🏾

It is from experience
Her experience is from her Disney days following the Let it Shine movie in 2012. She was supposed to get more than that show, but they just threw all the plans involving her away. U should go watch her vid abt what rly happened from abt a couple of weeks ago.

I've always got a Jennifer Hudson vibe from her idk y
She looks like Jennifer
Cause they look alike lol
Pamela Simon right like coco her daughter this song is so deep
I'm getting Jasmine Sullivan myself.
I'm not black but i'm a woman and listening to this song makes me feel something deeper than any cheesy love song could, point blank period.

For me being a darkskin female this hit home for pointing out colorism even though it doesn't really say it you really have to listen to understand it. Love this song👏👏. Coco Jones looks beautiful 😍😍😍
elle a quelque chose de sérieux... une force avec laquelle il faut compter... j'ai quelque chose en elle quand je l'ai vue pour la première fois... Amen
I love this!!!! This is that raw side of her that no one has ever seen. She has a gigantic amount of talent, but it’s so shaded in this bullshit they call music now!! Keep doing your thing girl!!!!!
Brianna Thompson 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 right
This with headphones 🤯❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😭
It's dope.. it's on repeat dude
It's amazing. Doing exactly that now.
Chills!
Nixxie Nae IKR it’s beautiful
Why y'all not supporting her like yall are Cardi B? She should hav ed way more views!
The Anonymous Black Kid hello! I saw you on instagram when you made that statement about the lovelyti bonnet picture and I totally agree. Also I agree with your statement rn
@@therandomotaku8783 lol thanks
The Anonymous Black Kid factsssssss
I was thinking the same thing!! She is so talented and people not even recognizing her for her talent😩
The Anonymous Black Kid because she hasn’t been making music like that 👌🏾 she can sing don’t get me wrong , but if she would put out more songs then maybe ppl would notice her a lot more💯 because I’m not gonna lie I literally forgot about her 💀 until I listened to this^
We love you Coco. God’s timing ⏱️ is perfect ❤
UNDERRATED AF!!!!
"what you want from me, what you need me to be" - This song is more than melanin/skin color. This is about society's standards and how people try to make us fit into boxes. We are turned into little characters who are pulled here and there, our selves forgotten in the process.
Thank you for singing such a beautiful song with honest and raw lyrics! Thank you. I really needed to hear this.
I just came across this song & I am floored. Man she sang down on this song🙌🏾🙌🏾
I completely agree. I watched the whole video in awe and when it went off I literally said Damn out loud and nothing else.
I just finished watching her “What Really Happened” video & this song just makes so much more sense. More power to you, Queen. I’m going on a Coco binge. ❤️
This is the type of music I need in my life
This song is beautiful it deserves more recognition 😩😩😩😩
girl, if you don't drop an ep or an album already. THE WORLD IS READY TO HEAR YOU
Omgosh ICU brought me here but I love you for this one
It's a shame that women of color have to struggle this hard when it comes to doing what they love. SMH, don't stop bbg! Keep doing what you're doing! If they won't give you the attention that you deserve, then you better take it on your own. Just don't do what many others have done and sell out. You have my respect and God's hand will guide you as long as you keep him close. Whew girl... your future is brighter than you think, but it's all up to you to determine how bright it becomes in the end. 💞

I don’t think it has to do with “woman of color.” It’s all colors who struggle with becoming mainstream. Besides that I gotta or agree! It’s a shame people with this amount of talent are still being held behind. Meanwhile we have people mainstream like Selena Gomez that can’t sing at all
"What you want from me, what you need do you need me to be" these lyrics hit me hard as hell 🖤❤💋
I don't care what anyone says, hear me out, YOU ARE SLEPT ON PERIOD.
Jayla Anderson YES MA’AM!!!
Jayla Anderson I wish
She's gorgeous. That voice matches her beauty, and the scar actually makes her look more exotic.
This song makes me feel good about my melanin thank you
I need her jasmine and Jennifer on a track yesterday!
Yes the music and vibes they will give.
They ain't ready for it
Coco you are talented and God gave you this gift for a reason one day you will make it big God willing just keep God in your life and this song was very powerful I cried keep doing what makes you happy and surround yourself with the people you love
it's makiyah right but i feel like if you gain the world then youll lose your soul keep god in everything you do because he is what matters especially in times we are living in rn the world has gotten so far from god and end times is approaching as long as shes making money and shes able to support herself and her family then she shouldn’t care what the world thinks
This song is so addictive.
This cured my depression
SHOOK ETH 💜
Mine just started

She’s like a mini Jennifer Hudson 😍
