So apparently this is very much intentional. Black creators on TikTok have indeed gone on strike. And whether people realize it or not, this is the result.

If your head isn’t in the ground, you know that Black creativity is often rebranded with a white face. That Black people tend to come up with the dances to these popular songs. But you wouldn’t know that based on who actually gains something from it. Wanting credit, actually getting it? Gets you labeled entitled or mean and is like pulling teeth.

And don’t even get me started on the way Black people on TikTok are swept under the rug or how these “not” racist fans get their panties in a bunch when people point out their white faves culpability in the mess.

But anyway, Black TikTok apparently noticed this trend of appropriation and theft and got fed up. So some of them banded together and promised not to create a dance to Thot Shit.

We’ll see where this goes but I’m proud that they’re standing up for themselves. Enough is enough. Black TikTok creatives are the backbone of that app. Credit and support them.
