If Riri went to Guyana she would get a Queens treatment, very bizarre she's never publicly gone.

Yes. Guyanese Lodge.

Guyanese will always hate on others who did better for themselves. At the end of day, we are pathetic crabs in a barrel. We won't ever support one of ours. We never have a good word to say in support of another - dragging down others is our expertise. Love being a Guyanese 🇬🇾

Gracious goodness me oh my, she literally gets cooler with age, man.

She’s promoting a product and forcing the accent lmao

u/ElizaB89 6d ago

Isn't her Mother Guyanese.

u/No-Type7964 6d ago

Exactly. Anyone with an ear would hear and know that’s not a Guyanese accent.

Bajan accent!

u/Royal-South-6154 4d ago

She was born and raised in Barbados. She did a decent job for someone who speaks Bajan. She isn't expected to sound like a Guyanese residing in Guyana. Once you move away, you'll sound different no matter how much you try. Completely normal.

Just another capitalist

I get the sentiment she's self-made. You know her first accountants ripped her off right LOL

It’s just marketing to promote her brand. Silly Guyanese will go crazy over it. Did Rihanna ever travel to Guyana, even once since she was a star? No so don’t tell me about her clearly imitated trini/bajan accent she trying to pass off as Guyanese.

u/mistaharsh 6d ago

Her mother is Guyanese. She doesn't have to. "Imitate" anything

u/No-Type7964 6d ago

Do you live in Guyana? That’s not a Guyanese accent. It started off as a strong Trinidadian accent with Guyanese words at the end.

u/PalmBeanz 6d ago

She grew up in Barbados, then lived in the US for umpteenth years. WHY should she be required to have a Guyanese accent? Make that make sense.

u/No-Type7964 6d ago

Learn to read. No one said she needs an accent. I said the accent she was trying to pass off as Guyanese is clearly Trinidadian/barbadian. Not even close to Guyanese.

u/Kitchen_Body3215 5d ago

Not Trini 😂

u/No-Type7964 5d ago

Definitely not Guyanese.

u/RiversVictory 4d ago

Dat is not a Trini accent attol

u/RiversVictory 4d ago

That’s not Trini accent boii

u/No-Type7964 4d ago

Well it’s certainly not Guyanese

u/Alternative_Mind_313 5d ago

Doesn’t really make sense her consumer demographics aren’t even in the Caribbean they’re in Europe and the US she doesn’t really need to market herself to Guyana I’m pretty sure it was just a bit of fun on live.

u/Kitchen_Body3215 5d ago

The market in Guyana isn't big enough for her to care 🤷

u/Actual_Win4457 6d ago

Wasn’t she also talking shit about Guyana/ese people?

10

u/Depths75 6d ago

Ok and? She's half Guyanese. I stay getting other African Americans together on their bullshiet. No love lost.

u/throwawayyimscared1 6d ago

I’m Guyanese and I talk shit

17

u/SlowButAlsoNot 6d ago

This is the way. You can have some pride and still point out the issues in a community. We shit stinks too

u/No-Type7964 6d ago

Yep. Now it’s time to sell shit and she preppin the Guyanese people for nice wood.
