  • Never Live It Down: Tinashe has said she did not feel completely accepted by the black community as a biracial woman. Many people from the black community took offense to this and interpreted her to be blaming the black community for her lack of success in the music industry. Tinashe responded to the online criticism that people had misconstrued what she said and that her comments were about her personal upbringing and not her career. Despite clearing up these misconceptions, many people continue to accuse her of being a "colorist" and hate her for things she never did.
