Twitter trolls are no match for Baby Tate.
On Tuesday (January 4), Baby Tate destroyed users on the platform for manufacturing the extremely false narrative that she would be a bigger star if she looked different.
It all started with a single hot take tweet from user @MuvaMack who wrote her opinion that Baby Tate would be more successful as an artist if she was a light-skinned black woman.
“Baby Tate would be further If her skin was lighter truth be told,” the user wrote in the tweet. “Because the talent is undeniable!!!”
Rather than directly responding to the tone-deaf tweet at first, Baby Tate utilized Kanye West’s infamous lyrics from Twista’s anthemic “Slow Jamz” hit in a TikTok mocking the user’s comments.
“Idk I think I look terrible lightskint,” she wrote in the tweet.
However, after the initial tweet, the flood gates opened giving way to a torrent of negative takes about colorism and soon Baby Tate found herself defending both her ethnic identity and thwarting body-shaming counter-narratives.
At one point, one used even claimed Iggy Azealia, who is white, is more successful than Baby Tate, and also compared her to Tinashe — which the 25-year-old rapper wrote off.
“We not making this a me vs Tinashe thing don’t be a weirdo,” she bagan.
“U wanna know why I am (in your eyes) ‘not as successful’ as the lightskinned ppl you think I should be more successful than,” Baby Tate wrote in a separate tweet. “I’ve been an independent artist for the past 7 years. Not because I’m BROWN without a BBL.”
Baby Tate eventually fell back on her “Pedi” ways and used the moment to plug her upcoming project, which will be her major-label debut on Warner Records.
“My upcoming double mixtape is going to be my MOST SUCCESSFUL PROJECT YET,” she wrote. “Let’s go @warnerrecords [Smiling face with horns emoji].”
Just days into 2022, Baby Tate is already picking up where she left off last year, by taking to task social media body shamers who are critical of her physique.
Back in October, she actually earned the recognition of Rihanna and a subsequent opportunity to become an ambassador for the Barbadian singer’s Fenty brand after social media trolls flooded Baby Tate’s timeline with negative remarks following her AfroPunk performance.

Maybe it’s because us as a society have been force fed artist like Cardi B, Saweety, Mulatto, and other dumb talentless artist who do nothing but put down men, and are an absolute plague on standards. Because none of those bitches could even manage a fast food joint. But they labels pump them with plastic surgery and Hollywood magic as well as FORCE feed these garbage songs in terms of quality, intelligence and topic down our throats with no break.
I still can’t wait for the Megan the Liar shit to crumbled on her world. At the point her label made so much off Torey Lanez destruction when it back fires they will distance and drop her and so will her endorsements. Torey will be fine in a few years and hasn’t lost much momentum since.
Hollywood and the agenda of the weirdos there are ruining music and culture. But they enjoy turning your kids into brainless future prostitutes, gangbangers and drug dealers so go ahead and keep acting like it’s all fine.
IDC about content tbh cause Nicki can talk that shit all day and at least it has the bars to match.
Rest of these bitches are churned out label plants with nothing beneficial to add to our world.
This new women movement won’t last forever
you know there is something wrong with what we call art in the music business and thus referring to people who make music as artists when you get to the top with that record deal and become the next cardi b your creativity and life along side it is so shallow. i wouldn’t bother reaching the top as long as you have a fan base and you can make music that people really want to listen to and make a bit of money i would leave it at that. otherwise sell your soul.
Megan and cardi and all these nasty thots makin that anti male shit and talking bout takin money from men. That pussy is all they got they all talentless hoz
Milenials and gen z call it body shaming. Everyone 40 and up calls it having an OPINION. Stop wasting energy worrying about other peoples opinions and save that energy to do something positive for yourself.
Who?
