Princess Nokia: Tomboy

In the music video for “Tomboy,” Princess Nokia (the raw, progressive sound project fronted by New York native and one-time Calvin Klein model Destiny Frasqueri) shouts “My little titties and my fat belly!” over and over while slurping up cereal next to her abuelita (in front of all of her childhood photos) and flashing cars on an overpass. It’s a badass anthem that laughingly warps “norms” and the traditional male gaze. Princess Nokia’s infectious confidence has us hugging our awkward selves a lot harder.
