Brown Skin Girl is still the most talked about song from Beyonce’s album, which featured Wizkid, Beyonce’s 7-year-old daughter, Blue Ivy Carter, and Guyanese rapper, Saint Jhn.
The album, which dropped on Friday, also features Tiwa Savage, Yemi Alade, Tekno, Mr Eazi and Burna Boy alongside Ghana’s Shatta Wale and South Africa’s Busiswa.
‘Brown Skin Girl’ has been tagged as an empowering song which praises brown-skinned women across the globe and has inspired others to embrace their own skin for all of its richness and beauty.
The hashtag #BrownSkinGirlChallenge launched over the weekend went viral with women especially in Nigeria uploading photos of themselves praising themselves for being ‘brown’.
Many jumped on the trend on Twitter to show off sunkissed selfies.
