Hoyeon Jung, Squid Game star, reveals in a recent interview to Vogue Korea that lately she’s been obsessed with Vybz Kartel’s music.
“I just think it’s something the world needs right now, whenever I listen him I scream GAZA! Free Addi.”
Hey beautiful Black people in Ontario, I would like to share some Black-owned hair suppliers/stores. Some are online and some are curb-side.
Encouraging spending money in the Black Community ❤️🖤💚

I have Trini friends, so does that mean I can’t mock Trini culture?
Anywho, this goes beyond his visit to Jamaica, and his sheer ignorant comments and things he uses for entertainment :)

have an estimated worth of $5 billion and contain the largest clear-cut diamond in the world. Known as "The Great Star of Africa” the diamond was mined in South Africa back in 1905.
The glitz and glamour of Canada and US starts and ends on social media.
Anyone in the UK and EU would be sacrificing a lot to relocate to this hell-hole.
So much opportunities for Black ppl in UK & EU in compared to Canada and the US.

Does anyone have a good graphic designer who can turn around work quickly?
I have an urgent request that I need to do by Monday.
No, this can't be done via Canva!
Now Dwayne Hines, isn't it funny that you were looking for a refund from Air Canada within 30 days when they cancelled plane tickets and didn't offer services... & you didn't shy away from CBC to expose them

Patwa is a language not just “broken down English”
Further, you are in no position to tell Jamaicans how we should feel about this ignorant yute coming to JA & behaving like he has no behaviour.
And his behaviour isn’t limited to his travels to Jamaica.
Umm we have the same ancestors but the thing is l dead ass don't give a flying fuck about YOU & how often u go to JA babes. I said what I said no Jamaican is going to feel some way about an American talking broken down English and celebrating their culture you're just miserable
… look how you ended up? Posting dumb questions on Twitter.
It can have adverse effects on the development of your baby, even their endocannabinoid system is underdeveloped.
Stop having children if you intend to expose them to harm b/c of selfishness and lack of self control
You these battles have really made me realize that people really don’t know music.
They don’t know artistes’ catalogues & can’t pair artistes! I don’t understand why they don’t just let people with sense chat.
Please don’t tell people if they are Caribbean because that’s not something you control… it’s based on nationality, ethnicity and/or culture 🙂
not whether i stay at resort or not tbh
Heard about this, so passing on the word!

Jamaicans, especially yawdies, just operate differently.

The wait is finally over... I have been able to work together with some community partners and sponsors to put together -
KANNASTE (Cannabis-friendly 🍃) Kemetic yoga and meditation session in Toronto targeting Black, Indigenous, & People of Colour 😁
So, the one Black radio station we had in Toronto is gone... are we going to still have a platform for Black-centric conversations (Grapevine)?
I have so many questions about this merger/shift.
Toronto culture has been infiltrated and is a whole fkn mess.
Start gatekeeping
When did youtube views matter when artistes dem ah clash/war? Who gives a fuck if Skeng has more views than Masicka. Masicka is a better artiste and that’s facts
You lot need help… trying to justify the use of molly to combat his “performance anxiety” - something he has never disclosed & assumption you are making up!
Let’s call a spade, a spade… Molly is a harmful drug, and this isn’t okay.
He needs help, not encouragement.
The issue is that by giving people more money doesn’t solve the issue.
The issue is solved if we place caps & controls on housing, food, energy & commodities.
The cost of living is going to skyrocket post-minimum wage increase and then that’s when we will really start crying
$45k a year is $22.5 per Hour.
Ontario's minimum wage will be going up to $15.60 in October roughly $31k a year.
The median individual income was $52,524 for Ontario.
And you cant afford to live in Toronto if you make less than 80k.
This is not sustainable.
a lot of these local [Black] influencers (esp. in Toronto) only support their friends & then say they support the Black community... bye.
another convo for another day. 😴
I never thought of myself as a Black woman in STEM, despite having two science degrees… but being asked to speak at these events to inspire kids has me emotional.
I really be doing shit 😭
Pop-up vaccination clinic at the Jamaican Canadian Association on May 8th & 9th.
Bring ID.
Toronto is a sanctuary city, so if you’re undocumented you can still get a vaccine!
Reaching out to the Black Canadian community ❤️🤗🌸
