Derek blanks is a menace to society
Fbrbebdbdbd

Like his visual mind is that of a 12 year old, no shade
Ntm on black artists, Derek has great vision. We kii now but those Alter-Ego shoots they were cutting edge at the time.

nnnj

some of them are good.  this kandi one isnt. like most of what she touches.

Gilgamesh.

It's giving album cover. I'm surprised one of the edgy girls haven't tried to remake this.

Kalmyks are tribal Mongolic people who settled in Russia. It's estimated to be only 300,000 Kalmyk descendants worldwide - with only 3,000 in America.

So me finding Derek's work corny is somehow an attack on black artists in general? Where is the correlation

may not be ur intention luv

At all. I know ur a good person and all that jazz

But Derek is known for things like embodying/representing Atlanta , Black art, etc

So a girl coming for him may be seen differently by different folks.

And that goes for anyone. Not just someone who's of the Asian Caucasian persuasion.

Cuz I def lash people of all colors who try Tyler Perry . Black or not watch that mouth

Honestly I feel a good chunk of the criticism for him and a lot of things Atlanta-adjacent are boldly underlined with anti-Blackness

And yes a lot of that comes from Black folks themselves

(Not saying anyone in here was doing that today . But in general)

n

the girls are free to express their opinion of his work without all that extra BS attached. his mess is very BASIC and the alter ego thing wasn't ground-breaking by any means at the time, you just didn't see BLACK folk playing with it. which, kudos to him. however, his results were usually a MESS. and that's exactly what people pick up on. no one has to pretend he slays just because he's black just like we don't have to pretend tyler perry's work isn't absolute shit.
