Keke Wyatt

Keke Wyatt caught up with Essence.com to promote her new album “Ghetto Rose”. In the interview she talks about race, her mom’s use of the N word and sympathizing with black folks.

On Identifying With Black Women

I am a woman. I ain’t like Tiger Woods. The truth is I’m 25 percent Black. I claim to be Black, Native American and White. I’m all of it. If you ask me, “What are you?” I’m going to say, “I’m a woman.” I stand up for all women. I don’t care if you’re Black, White, Chinese, whatever. But I don’t know what my mama put on my birth certificate..

On Her Stand For Black People

I’m not all Black, but I definitely stand up for the Black people. They’ve had it rough, they can’t help the fact that they’re skin is dark, or that their nose is a lil’ wider or that the curls in their hair might be tighter. I don’t think that it’s fair for people who look like me—the light skin, pointy nose and pretty hair—to think that dark-complected people are any less than them.

OMG... Seriously? Is she serious? Especially in America. What's the rule there? There is a one drop blood rule there, so no matter what her ratio is.. she needs to recognize her "blackness", and not consider herself "the other", besides... why is she singing "black music" if she aint black? .. Why did Esscence Magazine interview anyways?

HER NAME IS KEKE!! For crying out loud! KEKE!!
