Happy Black History Month 💖 11/21/22 Update: Check out this playlist of my favorite songs from Fatou’s solo mixtape and the K-Pop group she’s in, BLACKSWAN open.spotify.com/playlist/5bM6QI9kZD83VWr1stXht8?si=VWDjtU48QvOGXELKs0hCNQ ••• Check out Fatou’s solo feature here: th-cam.com/video/-O0TnkCNoTA/w-d-xo.html And listen to her group’s title single here: th-cam.com/video/NnW22WrN7g0/w-d-xo.html
As a Korean, I think it is very good that the number of non-Asian idol members is increasing in K-pop. However, it is very unfortunate that Fatou's company is not a very powerful company.🤔
@@Sarah-kv3qsut her home language in Senegal (Wolof) specifically was what she spoke and she has to learn English when her parents moved to Belgium according to the video. I’m Senegal French is the official language but the majority of the population may not speak it. Just because English and French is spoken in the contient of Africa, it doesn’t mean it’s spoken in the region she’s from anyone else for that matter. They Spanish, English and French in the continent of North America but one wouldn’t expect a person speaks either of these if they’re from the U.S. Africa is an entire continent you know lol so you’re comment sounds kind of uninformed. It’s impressive that she speaks 3 languages because we know dor sure she has to take time to learn English as a child. I’m not sure about the French since the video doesn’t touch on that, French is spoken in both Senegal and Belgium countries so it’s not surprising she’s familiar with it.
@@Sarah-kv3qs I think they only see those as European languages and what they meant to say was what was her native language or specific language that she spoke that originated in Africa
I'm so proud of her and so happy I can see myself in her. Although I'm a male, I love seeing someone represent us in spaces where we don't have much representation.
Omg I love Fatou, I'm from Brazil so some would say Leya should be my fav, but I'm black and when I saw Fatou for the first time I littarly cried because I was so proud, I was we finally made guys, I know rania had Alex and I loved her and rania, but this time I there was a girl with my skin color in the industry I love for over 15 years, I wish Fatou the best an all the support keep slaying girl make us proud what you already did❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💪🏾
It's crazy to me. Because she's amazing. Learning all these things at a fast pace when she didn't initially speak the language. The courage as a black Woman. Givin that kpop is MAJORLY inspired by black culture and music. Yet when a black person actually pulls up it's a problem? And the countless writers that write kpop music for our favs. Their names are almost never mentioned. Ppl act like these idols some who barley speak English are just out here singing and rapping in AAVE. Ppl just refuse to acknowledge these things it baffles me
Kpop is a manufactured genre, hardly different from your iPhone and Samsung galaxy's, so the majority of kpop fans are people that don't mind manufactured music, so you won't get through to them :(
This is the danger of appropriation...it's very different from appreciation. When a culture is appropriated it is, in short, stolen. Taken the American musical genres of Rock n' Roll and Country...two genres created by black Americans but have, through targeted appropriation, pretty much erased the creators from the genres today.
@@auroraseyets8516 same with Latin culture(salsa, bachata, etc)All started by African slaves and no major black Latin artist benefitting. That’s why I feel guilty even listening to kpop
People want to be like us but don't want to be us. Its sad, that we have so much culture and gifts in the arts to give but the prejudices won't stop because people are taught this, not born with prejudice.
Don't get me started on that shit when they tell a band mate how dark they look because one of them is 1 shade darker or got hit by the sun a bit that day.
@@NoctLightCloud because of her race, ethnicity and nationality. They're all different, so she has fans from different countries. And she's so beautiful
Honestly, Fatou makes me so happy. She's the kind of person who makes me feel like anything is possible, especially as a black girl. She's so talented, nice and charismatic. She's a role model for me. I hope for nothing but great things for Blackswan, they've worked so hard, they deserve all the recognition and love. All the members are hard-working women who want to make their dreams come true, and we should support them. Even though they just came out of a scandal, everyone moved on and we should too, we shouldn't send hate towards anyone. Even if you haven't forgiven Leia, it will do nothing but harm the group to send hate towards her. Focus on supporting the other members. Let's just send love and support towards them.
Fatou is so cute omg, I love the way she speaks, she has a Korean intonation while speaking french 😭😭🤍 as a french person this makes me love her even more
@@samsaarid2530 Ne me faites pas dire ce que je n'ai pas dit. Oui elle s'exprime comme une coréenne, je parle ici de son intonation et même de sa gestuelle non pas de sa prononciation :)
@@samsaarid2530 Elle parle comme un coréen qui a un assez bon niveau en français. C’est mignon. PS: Bien que je m’attendais à ce qu’elle n’ait pas vraiment d’accent ou du moins qu’elle ait un accent belge puisqu’elle a grandit en Belgique (si j’ai bien compris..).
Exactly 💯 and I love her statement when she said people like to bring black people down and we won't go down never ,we never down and we would never be and dat on period bruh no cap 🧢bruh on God mehn🤑..black people are magical we strong, we beautiful and we don't give up #neversaynever# no giv up in our dictionary mehn
Her self-love and encouragement is key! She internalizes the good and externalizes the negative. It’s a powerful gift! She seems like such an amazing person!!!
I am really inspired by her, and from now on I will be fatou's fan..I don't care if I'm brown I will keep on reaching for my dreams no matter what, coz if Fatou can do it than I can do it....Thank You Fatou💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Wow! I'm literally all smiles seeing this! ☺️ I'm proud to know that an African is making us proud in a setting that initially used to seem impossible 👌 Big ups to Fatou 👍
Omg I found someone who wants to be a black kpop idol to! Me aswell me and my friends are doing dance covers and everything I'm really determined to do it and I hope I do
What a beautiful and incredible black woman. Unbelievably gifted and talented. Continued Blessings to you. I’m 62 years old and enjoyed this tremendously.
It’s not about talent, it’s all about motivation, determination, and the way one learns a language. She learned Korean the smart way, but there’s no doubt that she’s very talented. And she’s soooo beautiful!!
Wow, a multilingual, talented, intelligent, well-articulate and supremely capable woman who has pursued her dreams and has found success and fame! ❤❤❤ I wish I knew her name before. Thank you, TH-cam algorithm. She is my new hero.
Omg, you should do a series out of this, telling how each one of the members got into kpop, and how they made to debut in BS, im really interested on Youngheun's history since she was part of a pre-debut group but never made to debut and there is almost no info of that group. ♥ (Sorry if my english is not perfect and Happy BHM 💞)
Why is it taking so much time for her to be famous???I’m getting frustrated bc she has everything she needs to blow up. She’s pretty and talented. What’s wrong?
2 main reasons I can think of: 1) her company is useless and is not doing a good job of promoting her group. 2) Dark skinned Black women usually do not find much success in the Korean entertainment industry. The Black people who usually get famous there are dark skinned Black men. The few Black women who become popular there usually have very light skin and are mixed. The dark skinned mixed girls don’t get attention. This is not too surprising as discrimination against dark skin in Korea is alive and well, people like to lie and say it doesn’t apply to Black people but it does. They accept the darker Black men because of fetishization and perceived masculinity. Fatou has almost 1 million followers on TikTok and about 400k on Instagram, so she is internet famous to a certain extent. But she and her company will have to work 50 times harder to be popular where she is, sadly the company is already slacking.
Wow, she’s so beautiful and I love how she went after her dream and is is not letting racism/criticism/hatred stop her, but instead is focusing on the good! I wish her so much happiness and success! ❤❤❤❤
Listen to this Beautiful Black Queen speak! They like to bring black people down especially black women, every thing you do the goggles 🥽 are on. But we are not going down, never! Fatou we love you and we will always be here supporting you and lifting you up higher than they could ever imagine. Beyond the stars 🌟! Keep shining like the most precious diamond 💎 you are. ❤️💕💕💕💕
fatou! je te trouve très courageuse et persévérante d'exercer ta passion dans un pays où la discrimination est tellement encré ! que dieu te garde et te donne la force et le courage dans les moments difficiles ! ❤👍💯
I really hope they don't pull a Bonnie Bennet on her and do her hairstyles justice. I'm really happy they let her Rock the natural afro hairstyle she recently had. I was so happy. Because we as black girls are beautiful too and our natural hair needs to be embraced like everyone else. It can be styled in beautiful ways too like everyone else. I'm glad their embracing her beauty too
Growing up Blasian in the US, I can certainly relate. The thing is, you started very young and that has it advantages. I learned early that I might be the Black Sheep in my family, but I also had strength and purpose. I did translations for my older family members, looked after cousins who visited from afar and I was the family hand bringing in a 25 pound bag of rice up 2 flights of stairs for great grandma. I found the silver lining in my clouds early. Because of it, I no longer "fear" where I travel or whom I help. I work in the medical field and translating Chinese in the mother tongue and an indigenous language often brings a surprise to others. However, I "focus" on the pluses of serving my community and the heartfelt responses from those lives I have saved and prolonged. I do try to maintain balance though. I remind myself that negative comments are often some issue of the person internally and just walk away. To create balance, I also make sure to love myself well so that I also become a martyr. Being a pioneer and a pillar in your community is never easy, but as you know...the pluses outweigh the negatives. Just keep going and making those with West African heritage proud of you!
Happy Black History Month 💖

I'm really proud of fatou
She is going to modernize K-pop and help give K-pop a new transition. I hope people of Korea are welcoming of the young people and change.
Also @dojacat - please collaborate with black swan for exposure holy snap that would be wicked ❤
I’m happy Fatou is getting more attention, that’s what I like to see!💙
She is beautiful and I like this group very talented young ladies

Outside of Nicki, Fatou is the only female rapper I'm interested in currently.
Yes
(Also this is the son of the account owner, the guy in the profile picture is not saying that)
Nicki Minaj is a terrible music artist to follow she's married to a ped0 and she's disrespected historical black icons like Malcolm X
This video has made me so happy and I am so happy that you were the one to make it Adeola.
Glad it brought you happiness!! 🥰♥️
Her talent is outrageous, her journey,dedication & that beauty! She deserves it all 👏
Fatou is so cute omg, I love the way she speaks, she has a Korean intonation while speaking french 😭😭🤍 as a french person this makes me love her even more
