“Milk wasted!!! Sho cute!❤️”

“Omg she is adorable 😍😍”

“Awwww how cute😍”

“Head full of hair ♥️ new life is so beautiful”

One fan mentioned how Rue’s tongue pic is giving them rapper Megan Thee Stallion vibes, as Megan is famously known for using that signature facial expression. “I heard Megan say “Ahh” 👅 😩 she’s beautiful though💕,” the person wrote.

Rue isn’t a stranger to making headlines since she’s been making them before she was born. The infant made her first appearance after her mama announced to the world that she was expecting back in June. The singer shared a music video titled “Wake Up Love” featuring her baby bump, Iman, and their 5-year-old daughter Junie.

Following the announcement, baby Rue made a surprising entrance to the world less than three months later on Sept 6, a day after her mama’s baby shower celebration. On the day of the newborn’s arrival, both parents welcomed their little “explorer” with open arms as they shared a loving Instagram post.

“We love you Rue, welcome baby girl @babyruerose 😢😍🌹❤️

Our newest edition entered the world in the water and came out looking around and ready to explore! A healthy child. A little sister. Another daughter. Black love wins….again. Welcome babygirl…we love you! 🌹 @babyruerose”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
