This Lavon filter
what an insult to her legacy. disgusting
xmmmmmmmmmmmm are they serious

Mary J Blige should've played Nina.
It slays to me... :uhh:

U saw the movie? no one's talking about the pic itself. Why tf is she in black face when they could have gotten a darker skinned woman to do it? stop being a contrarian for a second and wake up
I remember even India.Arie calm
self fumed the fuck owt when the news broke
even if this is good it will never be looked at the right way because how they casted her and fixed her look to play the part.

Wow
This poster just drives home the fact that this is movie will probably be despicable
they really put her in black face wtf..
She should've declined :uhh:

My grandmother used to watch a show called "Any day now" and it was
on lifetime :dead:

imagined if Lauryn hill wasnt lost in the world and continued to grow as an actress
this couldve been her break out role mess
India.Arie could have done it with a little coaching I'm sure.

Wtf does this mean
A lot of young people don't know who Nina Is. Hell she went under a lot of older people's noses also. Tbh. They know the song "I put a spell on you" if they heard it. It's been used a Lot in movies, TV shows, etc. But not much has ever been referenced to her the artist. I haven't seen anything talked about her myself. I just so happened to stumble across her music when I was in the 9th grade (23 now).
That documentary & this movie are the only big things that have really shed light on her for this current generation.

Ommmffff Yeeesss Vonc!!! One of my former professors put us on this. Nina was probably one of the first to really speak out against social injustice in her music. I think this was around the time James Meredith got beat up by some white people.

Nina just had this essence that I don't believe Zoe has even an ounce of. Idk, like someone really in touch with their blackness should've gotten this role. Hopefully she proves everyone wrong.
