#NewMusic: Hazel, AKA RHOP’s Monique Samuels Releases “Drag Queens”

If you didn’t know, Real Housewives of Potomac’s Monique Samuels was a rapper, and she brought those skills back out. Samuels, aka Hazel, put pen to paper, and created “Drag Queens,” a creative play on words.

Samuels’ song turns a negative into a positive, and who she is as a person. The negative was Samuels’s RHOP altercation with Candiace Dillard. That situation will play out on the current situation of RHOP. Samuels says that she learned more about herself with the altercation, from a mental and persona standpoint.

“I was born ready but I’m never done, Try on ten looks just to find right one/ Melanin pop bright like the sun, Sun kissed and you wish to compare hun/ Be careful what you wish don’t you dare hun, Tried to warn you see the message wasn’t clear hun/ I am a woman of my word cuz I’m fair hun, Give you what you ask for cuz I care hun/ Now you feel me now you see me, Exaggerate the eyes feelin really pretty/ Jeff on the beat sippin so I’m litty, Call my crew tell ‘em meet if you ain’t busy/ Now they trippin but they will miss me, Diamonds drippin nails done lookin real glitzy/ Long legs long hair lookin real prissy, We at the spot now it’s time to get real tipsy”
