‘Ask the Boss Bitch’

Hip-hop MC Priceless Diamonds describes herself as a “boss bitch” who grew up boosting clothes and turning the occasional trick. She’s no angel, but she’s got advice. So listen up, y’all.

My ass is whiter than a new pair of Jordans. Suggestions, please!

Go down to Westport where all them tanning booths are. You won’t get skin cancer as long as you slather down with that stuff they give you. They have to have a tan line in the summer. Here in the Midwest we don’t have no beaches, so the tanning salons in the Midwest get a lot of business. The new “in” thing is to have a tan line. I see even black girls doing it, just for the line.

You can go down to the Ozarks and lie in the sun. I didn’t even know about Party Cove until they was yelling that all over America. When I go out of state and say where I’m from, it took other people to tell me about it. “Yeah, Party Cove!”

A lot of people are doing the spray-on shit. I don’t like it though. You lying on someone’s pillow and you wake up and the pillow is all orange. Don’t start sweating in the middle of the night or orange is going to be all over the bed, you know? Then you wake up like, what is this shit?
Who uses meth?

Black people don’t really use meth. It’s a European drug. All I’ve ever heard is it’s supposed to be the new rich man’s high. It used to be cocaine, but I guess that sizzled out. From what I heard the shit’ll have you up three, four days at a time, puts big craters in your face.

I don’t knock nobody, you know, but that just ain’t my type of high. Young people don’t need to be trying it. Old people are already set in their ways, so that’s on them.
