There is this notion that after dealing with one two many Black f*ckboys--I specify because they do come in all colors-- Black women are turning to men of other races, specifically White men. So, when images of Rihanna kissing a lighter complected man surfaced, the assumption was that she had moved on to men of a lighter hue. After all, Rihanna's dating history includes the CEO of F*ckboy Inc., Chris Brown.
But despite that irrefutable fact, Black men were none too pleased about the new development.
Rihanna couldn’t handle a strong black king ....

This is so outlandish, I can't tell if this is sarcasm or not. But if this man is serious, with this logic, in what degree of brokenness do we find the Black woman's self esteem?Rihanna choosing to date a non black man is detrimental to young black men across the world. She singlehandedly ruined their self-esteem.

Has there been any conclusive evidence that any of her Black love interests have been faithful? I mean, these fools were--and likely still are-- truly pressed. Yet, they want to call Black women bitter when we express our grievances, annoyances or whatever, seeing Black man after famous Black man choose White women. The hypocrisy is real as hell. Thankfully,though the uprising of hoteps who took issue with this new partnering were swiftly checked by the Black women who didn't have time for the bullsh*t.Rihanna don't appreciate faithful black men? Smdh

Rihanna has NEVER publicly or behind closed doors attack or belittle Black men while only uplifting white men. Sit down. https://t.co/ww7CkumIbn

And while I'm sure it doesn't matter to these sect of butt hurt Black men, it is interesting to note that Rihanna's new boy toy is not White. According to the Daily Mail, Jameel is the deputy president and vice chairman of Abdul Latif Jameel, a family business and one of the biggest companies in the world. The company owns distribution rights for Toyota cars in Saudi Arabia and has amassed a fortune of $1.5 Billion, a fortune that Jameel is set to inherit. Last year, around the same time Rihanna and Drake seemed to be rekindling something, Jameel was seen canoodling with Naomi Campbell...but nothing definitive like these pictures with Rihanna. Either way, after this little bit of news broke, that was cause for celebration."Rihanna’s new lover is Saudi businessman Hassan Jameel. His family own one of the biggest companies in the world."
