Those were the last WORDS of EL DEBARGE in his revealing INTERVIEW in the new issue of Ebony magazine.

So my question is, is LIGHT SKIN BACK IN STYLE OR IT NEVER LEFT?

In mainstream media it never left.

In urban appeal it never actually left but lost some of its special desirability which imo made a return recently.

Saw him the other day on VH1 Soul...looks kinda sweet if you know what i mean.

YAWN!!! He must have been watching Music and Lyrics and thinking about a comeback. This is just a desperate attempt to create controversy with the light skinned vrs dark skinned BS

I NEVER LEFT.

LIKE THE GOOD Soldier that I am, I STEPPED to the SIDE to ALLOW MY DARK SKIN BROTHAS to get some much deserved shine.

Everyone knows that LIGHT SKIN NEGROES are the MOVERS and SHAKERS of the BLACK COMMUNITY, but sometimes they have to step back and let the other members of the rainbow coalition in the Black community get their shine on as well.

That said ; what do you think of El DEBARGE's comment?

I heard is when he first came out that lightskin guys became in for like a second. lol.

Dark skin men been appealing to women since before the slave days...nowadays all the dark skin men seem taken and is the red ones single...so if they seem in, maybe it's cause they are all that's available. Women on the dark ones like sand on beach! Some black women still don't like men darker than them though...

And opposites tend to attract. I often see the reddest girl with the blackest man. And red guys tend to be mobbed by jet black women.

White men will faster like a jet black girl than a black man will.

I think overall it works out long as the person is not ghetto. Then their options are limited if they are female.

i liked him from since i was small yes.. him and prince.. lol.

UThe only time dark skin men have ever been in style was during the thug life/PANTS FALLING OFF MY ASS era of the 90's.

Outside of that, the HIERARCHY of the BLACK COMMUNITY, THE LIGHT SKIN NEGRO, has always reign SUPREME.

If you do not believe me, I can give you a HISTORICAL Chronology to SUPPORT MY CLAIM.

so between a light skinned negro and a light skinned mixed race man.. who would trump who.. since we on de subject?
