Well, now! Amanda Seales rocked the BET Social Awards stage on Sunday with a fiery poem packed with #BlackGirlMagic that you have to hear.

The BET Social Awards aired Sunday night, and its first annual telecast focused on the best and worst in social media that made an impact over the past year. Well, our girl, actress and melanin-proud sister Amanda Seales, certainly made an impact in 2017. Looking cute in a black jumpsuit, the Cali girl did not come to the show to play.

If you followed Seales on social media last year, then you’re fully aware of the many clap-backs she had to dish out to people who, frankly, deserved it.

The Insecure star gave a lesson to men who required unconditional love from their partners, something that the 36-year-old said, “…your girl didn’t birth you. There shouldn’t be an unconditional exchange. The exchange is fair when it’s conditional and you have control of those conditions.”

And for those that didn’t hear in the back, she further explained that this message was particularly for men who treated their women no better than an empty Flamin’ Hots bag.

“To expect someone to love you regardless of how you treat them or yourself or other people is not only ridiculous and self-centered, it’s actually irrational. That’s the unconditional love you expect from ya mama, but guess what? Ya mama ain’t suckin’ your dick.”

And this, ladies, is why Amanda Seales is one of the greatest instruments to happen to social media. So, bringing her unfiltered, passionate common sense to BET’s main stage was a no-brainer. Seales got on that stage and delivered a poem that was an ode to all things #BlackGirlMagic. Describing us as girls who pat weaves to setting up business launches, our Melanin Superhero gave us Black girls just another reason why it’s so damn awesome to be us.
