''Your skin is not only dark, it shines and it tells your story'' DAMN BEYONCÉ
Hollar! like mine.
FYI!!! BEYONCÉ IS MIXED!!!
Víctor Ramírez I felt that 👸🏿
@@BrothasAbroad Beyonce is not mixed her mother is Haitian and her dad is African American, Beyonce is just light-skinned black😑
Brothas Abroad Travel if you say Beyoncé is mixed then literally almost every black person on the planet is too. Cause almost all of us have another race mixed in us
I'm white, but this song made me shead a tear bc black girls are so powerful and beautiful. Nothing but love to all of you, ladies.
Thank you Marta. You are beautiful too.
Thank you..
Thank you! ❤️
So kind of you babe✨ we rock girls✨⭐
Missy Elliott w
At first I loved the lyrics cause I'm Indian and was wondering if I could keep this song. Then when I watched the music video, I realized there were Indian girls in the MV too and I honestly cried cause I'm so honored to share this song with my other beautiful brown skin sisters.
I’m Indian too ❤️
I’m Bengali
Brown is Brown it includes all women across the world. 💛
Bye LMAO
Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter
When I was a kid, I really hated my skin color, it was horrible, I felt horrible just by my skin, my lips my nose, Beyonce was a important part of my life, seeing her was a miracle for me, my own family and "firends" from school make me feel ugly and hate my skin too
I love my skin so much now, thank u Queen B
Just an FYI ur stunning
YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL! you are the elegant .
As a West Africa, I will never understand why there's so much hate towards blacks in the U.S (I am assuming you're American).
To the extend that there has to be a song about our skin color to cheer us up.
Skin tone doesn't mean anything in human body
You were born with your skin tone for a reason. Don’t ever change it...
Shaquille Oatmeal ikr tell Michael Jackson that but I agree
@@scorpioqt1530 Michael had Vitiligo,do some research.
ArcticDamaged Michael Jackson had a skin disorder
What is the reason that you were born with your skin tone?
ArcticDamaged you dumb af if you actually took the time to research what you were saying you’d know he had A skin disorder and used makeup to even his shade out
Blue ivy and Beyoncé just told me my skin was like pearls.......you can’t tell me shit for the rest of the year

"Melanin too dark to throw her shade". Periodt
This song does not apply to me in the slightest, but i always have it on repeat. African American woman are some of the most beautiful women in the world and im so happy this song was made to remind them of that. Much love to all of you 🥰
Wizkid- Essence 🔥
I started crying after hearing this song. I haven’t heard a song that empowers brown skin girls since India Arie. This is such a beautiful song. I also love the line “ Melanin too dark to throw her shade “.!
Yesss!👏👏👏
Listen to sauti sol- melanin
You should listen to a song called melanin by sauti sol ♥️♥️
TheLeah2344 same as a brown skin girl we don’t get a lot of songs like this

As a black women in america, this song always brings tears to my eyes.
Your skin color is so beautiful so you will be proud!! 😍😍😍 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I know is a dificult situation in north america... be strong girl.. se fuerte chica 💪🏻 estamos con ustedes.
same but still proud of being black, girl we're another level 👸🏽
I WANT TO BE BLACK SO BAD THEY ARE SO PRETTY
Gacha Jacky you are beautiful the way you are everyone is beautiful don’t be ashame or your race 💕💕💕💕
Wizkid's voice is so soothing.
I’m technically “light skin” but my whole family comes in different shades of brown. This song makes me almost impatient to teach my brown daughters how to love their skin and show them how much I do🖤
You’re still brown we come in a variety of shades so this song still applies to you ❣️
"your skin it's not only dark it shines and tells your story" ALWAYS gets to me 🥺💙💙💙💙

Are you saying there's no self empowerment songs in recent times? Cause saying that would make you both ignorant and unaware.
@@murphy3807 What I meant, is that music like this isn't really made in this generation. I know there are some others, but im talking about this song in particular.
Siah - fr, I’m light skin but I don’t get y ppl don’t get with the browns skins they’re so beautiful 💯
@@siah-1510 "music like this isn't really made" what I'm trying to say is that you're wrong. You won't find what you're not searching for. So many artists have poured sweat and blood into their art only to have people like you tell them they dont exist. Just because you don't see it or hear it, doesn't mean it's not there.
@@murphy3807 ok
I’m a brown skin woman with dark brown babies. This song has so much meaning. I play it for my babies daily.
My mother always hated her skin, cause she was the only brown girl in her class, or in her friend group. I keep on telling her, her skin is a beautiful brown sugar. And I told her to listen to this song and she did and she cried. She loves this song. Her and other brown skin girls are so beautiful! I love y’all, and have a good day/night! 🖤✊🏽✨

It is unbelievable. But, people will still find something negative over a uplifting song.

Shout out to Wizkid...You made Nigeria and Africa proud. Thanks to Beyonce for giving African artistes the opportunity to shine.

She add to the shine. They have being shinning since ages. Imagine if we leave it to their hands. Anyway, we know winners like winners.

@@devangel007 hmmm... what part of Europe does racism not exist. Oh you live in Turkey? Interesting. Well just for your basic info it is well known that the racism in Europe is better hidden than the racism in America but it still EXISTS. Ask a black friend to tell you the truth or for "in your face" overt racial bigotry simply watch a soccer/football game where the black player is so good that the crowd starts throwing bananas and making money noises at him for some strange reason.
@@JamieBleu where do i say that i live in turkey? And where do i deny the fact that racism doesn't exist in europe? Yes ppl in europe are racist such as ppl everywhere in this planet but it is not that harsh as it is in the usa. The us takes this racism shit to a whole new level. This is what i wrote and said. READ b4 u clap back at me.

@Joelle meaning Jehovah is God you're a colorist and hate dark skin girls.
Joelle meaning Jehovah is God Your stupid get out.
Ya be proud
Everyone is proud the way they are irrelevant to say your colour tbh no one asked u fool
This song brings the love my inner child lacked for herself. Being the darkest out of all my siblings I often hated myself for not being light. But looking back at old photos of my ancestors they were all dark brown or if not even darker than I am. And I like to see myself now as a reflection of those in my lineage who have come way before me. They live on in and with me. ✨💜

Thank you to black women for starting to love their skin and standing up for themselves ♥️ it really set an example for the rest of us POC girls to start appreciating and feeling comfortable in ours too. Seeing y’all embrace your beauty really helped the rest of us understand ours too so thank you

The fact that this song didn’t blow up shows how people really feel.
Fr and its Beyonce so you know it's a race issue
@@destineejones1560 lol yep. But at least it got 24 million views
i was thinking the same
But this song did blow up to those that mattered! My young nieces and nephews sing this son all of the time.
It blew up here in Nigeria
“Nothing can tear us apart!”
I’ll never trade you for anybody else….my favorite part of the song. It means so much.
Every time I listen to this song I tear up. 💔 Growing up, my best friend was a very dark-skinned black girl. When we played outside she would only play with me in the shade. I asked her why and she told me she hated her skin tone and didn’t want to get darker. When we became teens, she would always talk about how she wanted my hair, she wanted my skin tone. But I’m not kidding when I tell you that she was beautiful enough to be a model. I tried to tell her for years that she was beautiful but it never got through to her... the voice of the media, the voice of people who were racist and colorist towards her, even the voice of her own family was louder than mine and she truly never believed that she was beautiful.
I hate that so many black women are taught to hate themselves from a young age. I hate all of the racism and colorism in the world. Sometimes it all feels overwhelming and impossible to get rid of. I just hope if you are reading this you know that you are BEAUTIFUL, you are WORTHY, you are NOT a mistake. You do not need to change anything about yourself. The things others try to change about you are the special qualities that set you apart and help to “tell your story.” ❤️
Black women are not taught to hate themselves. I am sure you heard that from social media. I love the shade because the sun is too hot. When it is cold I love to feel the sun on my dark skin. If you really are interest in different cultures, don’t watch the news or be on social media, all lies. Black/Brown people love the skin they are in, at most the ones I know. The media mostly portrayed by someone not black paint a different picture. Much love to you😊
Also, we are all created in God’s image. God created me and whoever hates me insults the God(Jesus) who created me😊
@@jayd524 girl you cant speak for everyone. Black girls are always shown light women and it can develop deep insecurities. Black men are already victims to self hatred

Ur skin is not only dark it shines and it tells ur story . black/brown is beautiful
I remember being young and oh so mad at the fact that I had brown skin, brown eyes and black hair. Every single pet name was related to my skin color but now that I'm older I can finally be at peace with who I am.
I normally wear my braids in to school as its easier to cope with but I took them out and went natural to school. You have no idea how many confused looks, rude comments, questions and queries I had gotten from my peers. My friends said and I quote "Girl, you would look way nicer with straight hair like me." and " Daisy has similar hair to yours just it's not ass messy and big". My mum picked me up from school and this song played. I cried. I cried full tears and I couldn't stop. So thank you for this song as it helped me realise that my hair, my skin, my eyes and my body are something to be proud of and I have no need to change it.
fab family That is beautiful no one should have to go through that and you are a beautiful black girl you gotta own your looks God made you a queen 👑

🥺🥺Thank you for the song. I am a brown skin girl who has been struggling with her self confidence, insecurities since the teenage. Here in India Black is not considered beautiful, we get to hear taunts on our dusky complexion which are really heartwrenching.
This song is really powerful and I could feel the words. I just hope black women know that they are queens but they need to work with black kings and let us stop letting the enemy make us enemies to each other. Black Kings to Black Queens both acting their part. Let us build our families back with morals and love.

Oh, have you looked in the mirror lately? (Lately)
Wish you could trade eyes with me (Because)
There's complexities in complexion
But your skin, it glow like diamonds
Dig me like the earth, you be giving birth
Took everything in life, baby, know your worth
I love everything about you, from your nappy curls
To every single curve, your body natural
Same skin that was broken be the same skin takin' over
Most things out of focus, view
But when you're in the room, they notice you (Notice you)
'Cause you're beautiful
Yeah, you're beautiful
Them men, them gon' fall in love with you and all of your glory
Your skin is not only dark, it shines and it tells your story
Keep dancin', they can't control you
They watchin', they all adore you

Very beautiful song! 😭😭
I agree, I think people, in Africa, are upset with her over the album even prior to it's release.
Utbr01 how come??
@@franciscastar334 Idky, at least I don't understand THEIR reasons completely.
There's a video out here on yt with a message from Africa to Beyoncé basically saying thanks but no thanks to Black Is King.
Their complaints ranged from a belief she like many many others were simply exploiting Africa for her own profit and wondered if and how Africa would benefit?
Something about (misinformation I think) the fact she doesn't visit or bring her major tours to Africa, but obviously she did visit several places in Africa to complete this project.
Some disapproved of the images used to represent Africa. Thinking they did not accurately reflect the modern way in which African people live today, just wearing jeans or business suits or other designer clothes, and stylish hair, even weaves and accessories & are active social media users, they seemed to feel-- just based on the trailer,--once again they were portrayed from ages ago as a step above savagery, wearing loin cloths , living in tribes in forests and such or something out of Black Panther.
IMO Africa doesn't have a good image or reputation around the world , basically known for war, corruption and poverty and disease, the origins of humanity and AIDS, ALWAYS with a hand out for help, getting loans from the WHO and China and not paying back, FGM, stolen girls, etc... and Beyonce was trying to help provide positive I images about our Roots, this generation of Africans didn't seem to see it that way.
The conversation thread showed a mix of support for Beyonce from African Americans and support from other Africans who agreed with blasting her.
A disconnect in feelings was revealed with several AA trying to convey their teaching or lack thereof, about their own heritage in Africa and mainly negative stereotypes and bringing it current day to the murder of George Floyd and the resistance to the first black/Indian woman being nominated to vice president of the United States of a major party, to all the cop Murders and growing anti black sentiment in America, even historically from African people.
This discourse seemed to demonstrate a need for less judgement and More of these understanding conversations.
That was More detailed than I planned to respond but that's the gist of it.
"Same skin that was broken be the same skin taking over" Great song but its something about that line man...gets me every time.
Artise Bonner same that line is probably my favourite

So nostalgic for me. Miss this era of R&B and hiphop music so much! Memorable fun times as a young adult in my 30s. 😶🌫️🍾🥴
Y'all don't know wizkid? Nobody is appreciating his vocals, he killed this jam, blue ivy has an amazing voice too, and mama Bey is a goddess
Naahhh, y will u say that na??? Check d comments one more time. Wizkid 4 life! Naija 4ever!😍
First time hearing him, he has a commanding voice.
@@jonnicalweek7103 he's kinda the biggest artist from Africa, I think he's very famous in the UK.
@@jonnicalweek7103 you have never heard one dance,,
Right!🇱🇷🇱🇷👏🏾
This song makes me cry everytime i hear it. "Melanin too dark to throw her shade" and "but your skin it glow like diamonds" Thank you so much for this song, Beyonce, we needed this. Your skin is not only dark, it shines and it tells your story 😭😍
My favorite lyrics
I’m white and i cry every time I hear this song, i just wish this song would be released much earlier bcs I have the feeling that so many black girls needed it. I love ya all and I’m proud that my best friend is such a beautiful Girl with a skin that glows like diamonds ❤️

Song that makes you smile 😁
Okay, I’m black and the lyrics are touching. But can we take a moment to talk about how good the song is from a musical standpoint? It’s soooo catchy. Harmonies are brilliant! Beyoncé’s lower register is sooo underrated! 🤩🤩🤩
its my fave
Dear future wife, This song will be a lullaby for my future daughter... It's like an affirmation for coloured queens🍯
Jevaughne Hutchinson yes please
Much RESPECT👑💗🔥😘😍
💗
❤
I am white and this song is a lullaby for my baby girl. I hope my baby girl will be proud who she is just like B and all of us want for all white and brown girls.
To all my dark sisters out there. This song hits differently for us doesn’t it❤️👸🏿
Yessir 💅🏿
Yass

SAY THAT AGAIN
This song literally makes the little girl in me cry so much healing ❤️🩹 goes on when listening to brown skinned girl different layers
Black girls are beautiful their powerful and they have a voice their queens and they are champions this is not only for black girls but everyone who did not know
Way beautiful than asian girls, right?
@@mirabelmadrigal89literally who said that 😂😂
Beyonce told me she loves my body and my skin color dont even bother trying to insult me
Period.
XD
AND, no one really talks about this, but if we all bled to death, we would ALL have the same blood. O, and we would be dead, no matter what are skin color is. (I have like 3 friends and have never been kissed yet and I’m 21.) (isn’t THAT interesting) I also want Michael B. Jordan’s children. Please pray for me. Ok bye, I’m really not this weird in person. 😂 I’m only weird on the Internet. Maybe...
MOOD FOR 2019 AND FOREVER
you suck

Evergreen P 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿. Wizkid all the way
I'm here for wizzy
Count me in.. Wizkid all day everyday..
All the way
@Joe Ann No hate comments plz.. Let's be happy and celebrate black excellence together
This song is so moving. If America hadn’t been threatened by the African culture that was involuntarily brought here, we could have grown as a nation celebrating it. A French immigrant chef I admire mentioned in his autobiography how much poorer we are as a nation for it. We’re missing out on something beautiful and have only ourselves to blame for it.
I cry every time I listen to this song 🥺
I’m a guy and yesss 🙏🏽
This song is amazing!! As a white girl to see how the beautiful black culture is progressing more and more and breaking barriers is so beautiful to see... its time for all of you beautiful brown skin girls to shine!!! The way it’s supposed to be!!! 👸🏿👸🏾👸🏽 your skin... your hair... your beautiful African curves are beautiful and don’t let anyone tell you different!!! 👸🏿👸🏽👸🏾
Thanks girl
paula b you’re welcome queen 👸🏿
AGREE X 1 MILLION!!!!!! THIS SONG MAKES ME CRY FOR ALL MY BROWN SKIN SISTERS WHO NEVER HAD AN ANTHEM LIKE THIS. YOUR TIME TO SHINE.
🥰🥰🥰
nimol xo you wish you could be one... 😂😂😂 yo skin don’t look like pearls 😂
I'm Indonesian and i have a dark skin, 15 yo me embarrassed with my own skin so, i used a lot of product to made my skin more brighter but now, im proud of it!
Sweetheart love your skin like never before,,, Am glad you now know its worth😘
If GOD wanted you any lighter he would've made it happen.
Go burn that crap!you are beautiful in all your melanin😍
You are beautiful. Don't try to change. I am Caribbean. In our family we are different shades. My eldest sister is dark skinned, looks Indian, and thick stranded hair. Gets it from her father. She is beautiful at 60yrs.
Embrace your beauty. 💞
I'm Indonesian too and I'm glad I found ur comment❤
I'm a young 12 year old girl and I'm south African,so just hearing this song is so inspiring,bc I used to wish that I was white,but now I'm proud to be south African and black 💕💕💕
Blue ivy’s voice is beautiful❤️
@Tia💞 - ɢᴇᴛᴛɪɴɢ ʀᴇᴀᴅʏ ғᴏ what?😂
"Your skin is not only dark, it shines and it tells your story." This really helped my because sometimes I think I'm not good enough and ppl say black kids can't learn. It really hurt for all of us but someday we have to take those hard days. This song inspired me so much I cannot stop listening to it. Whenever I have a bad day I listen to this!!
You never let others tell you what you can’t do. Not only can you learn, when you do, you create .... amazingly!!! Be unapologetic and shine. Prove them all wrong. They tell you negative things because they judge you based off of what Hollywood promotes. They don’t pour Into you because know what comes with you being full. Create your path and conquer when the roads are blocked. Never stop fighting, never stop being great!
Never let anyone else degrade your beauty you the original person on the planet everybody else is a carbon copy of us we are gods first men and women and remember hue man means color man so to be a human you have to have melanin remember
john John Please tell me you don’t believe in the out of Africa theory. That is a lie and has never been proven. Yes we are God’s first people. But them white people came from cave dwellers, Neanderthals and we Africans didn’t create them ugly things. We are God’s chosen people and will always be. God will bring us back to our land. The Bible says so!!!!
Love you girl♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
You are BEAUTIFUL.... YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL.... DON'T YOU DARE THINK YOU ARE NOT BEAUTIFUL😘😘😘😘😘😘
