Mystic
|
Her mother
is White, her father was Black (From BET.com).
This Oakland native has paid her dues for 11 years in the rap game,
but it's only recently with her debut, "Cuts
for Luck and Scars for Freedom," that the world has taken
notice of this underground gem. Mystic says her identity has never
been in question. Her Census form reads Black. And thats
by her own definite choice.I come from a time when there wasnt
a option if you were part Black you were Black, Mystic
says. I dont have any issues with it. I do understand
why people want to identify with all the different parts of them
but [the Census] is a very serious issue when it comes to funding
and things like that.
