Emerging Nigerian singer, DonCarta, is making waves in the entertainment industry not only for his music but for a recent statement he made regarding the type of women who, in his opinion, deserve all the love and financial rewards.
In a candid Twitter revelation, DonCarter professed his admiration for natural beauty and melanin-rich skin, stating that Nigerian women who embrace their natural complexion without resorting to skin bleaching deserve to receive credit alerts – a phrase commonly used to denote financial transactions or monetary rewards.
“It’s all about melanin,” the singer emphasized, firmly advocating for dark melanin skin over any other skin color. This bold declaration has ignited a lively debate on social media and among netizens who have varying opinions on the matter.
The reactions to Don Carter’s statement have been swift and diverse. Some netizens have praised the singer for celebrating the beauty of natural, unaltered skin.
However, others have argued that beauty is subjective and that promoting one type of beauty over another can perpetuate harmful beauty ideals.

Naturally light-skinned individuals should not be judged for their skin tone.

Someone will appreciate you for who you are, not just your skin tone.

Those born with lighter skin may not share your sentiment.

The confusion between skin color and melanin is real. Being naturally light-skinned doesn’t mean you lack melanin; you’re still black.

We shouldn’t assume that everyone who’s light-skinned has bleached their skin.
