A Detroit charter school teacher, once named “teacher of the month,” claimed she was fired because a parent complained over her rap career — later filming a music video with her students to announce her forced departure.
Domonique Brown, who performs under the pseudonym Drippin Honey, was a US history teacher at Taylor Preparatory High School in metro Detroit before she was fired earlier this month, she revealed on social media.
“Recently, I was forced to leave my position due to me being a Rapper,” Brown posted on Instagram. “A single parent’s disapproval led to my dismissal.”
Brown revealed the parent’s complaint was submitted anonymously in October, after she released her song “Drippin 101,” resulting in several months of meetings with school administrators.
“The first meeting was with my dean and my principal and they were just telling me, ‘Hey, a parent said that they’ve seen your social media, and that you’re a bad influence because you’re a rapper,'” Brown told WJBK.
She continued to meet with the officials amid the parent’s complaints and Brown had to choose between her day job or rap career.
“Five months later, meetings after meetings defending my involvement in the music industry I was asked to erase all my content that’s when I knew I HAVE TO BET ON MYSELF CUZ NOBODY WILL IF I DONT.”

Not the kind of gal I’d be taking home to meet Mom.
Let her rap. She is up there with Mozart.
I'm beginning to see the problem.
Sounds important. </sarcasm>
It’s their culture. Not our problem.
No need to guess what species she is.
Got kicked out of school
That just isn’t cool.
The old dean is a fool
and the principal’s cruel
Said I broke their damn rule
made up by some tool.
Teacher of the month maybe in a school someone should unchoose.
Like the advice
“You may have chosen the wrong fast food place if the picture of the employee of the month has a row of numbers under the face.”
Elephant seal? No, they can’t twerk.
Teacher of The Month.
There are a lot of illiterate people who hold teaching positions.
Stupid dipshit idiot teacher is more like it.
Another aspiring wrapper!

She would fit right in with the Detroit PUBLIC Schools.
I often wonder how long a white man would be placed in Fakebook jail if he merely posted the lyrics of most rap “songs”.
