Lex P & Drea Nicole are ringing in the New Year on the Pour Minds podcast with none other than the social media sensation-turned-business mogul, Supa Cent! This episode is packed with a mix of personal stories, real talk, and humor as the three women dive into topics that will keep listeners laughing and reflecting. From Supa’s journey to becoming an entrepreneurial powerhouse to the complexities of modern dating and cultural conversations, it’s an episode you won’t want to miss.
Supa Cent, whose name has become synonymous with hustle and authenticity, shares how she transformed her early days as a social media storyteller into a successful business empire. What started as casual “Story Time” videos on her social media soon evolved into one of the most recognized names in the business world. Supa admits she never set out to be an influencer; instead, she just shared relatable stories that resonated with her audience. Little did she know that her candid and unapologetic storytelling would lay the foundation for her empire.
During the conversation, Supa touches on her ongoing social media presence, recounting how her accounts would often get deleted due to the explicit nature of her posts. “Wasam Super,” as her name originated from New Orleans, became a symbol of resilience, as she kept adding “Super” to her usernames whenever one account would get wiped out.
The episode dives deep into Supa’s personal life, where she discusses her engagement and how her relationship has evolved over time. At nearly 37, Supa shares how her partner feels like her perfect match and how they’ve both grown together, even attending couples’ counseling. The hosts also discuss Supa’s past relationships, including her three-month relationship with a white man, which taught her valuable lessons about what she desires in a partner.
The conversation takes a candid turn as they explore the concept of “spinning the block”—returning to old relationships—and how dating preferences change over time. Supa reflects on how her dating standards have evolved and how certain relationships have served as essential learning experiences. They also discuss how race plays a role in relationships, with Supa recalling her experiences dating across racial lines and how those experiences shaped her current views on love and relationships.
The trio doesn’t shy away from cultural discussions, particularly when it comes to fashion and how certain trends are perceived depending on who’s wearing them. Supa and the hosts delve into the controversy surrounding fashion collaborations, including Dolce & Gabbana’s partnership with Skims, and how black women’s fashion choices are often unfairly labeled as “ghetto,” while similar looks worn by others are celebrated.
Supa speaks candidly about the pressure to stay true to her style while acknowledging that, often, black culture sets trends that others eventually profit from. The group also discusses the hot topic of wearing bonnets in public, with varying opinions on when and where it’s acceptable. This humorous yet insightful conversation touches on broader issues of social expectations, authenticity, and how fashion choices are often unfairly scrutinized.
As the conversation turns towards the topic of “ghetto” fashion, the group humorously debates whether behaviors like wearing pajamas or bonnets in public should be judged as “ghetto,” and why these labels are often applied to people of color. The hosts explore how such behaviors transcend race, noting that everyone has a bit of “ghetto” in them, whether it’s walking around barefoot or wearing socks in hotel lobbies.
The episode also includes a deep dive into the hosts’ reflections on personal insecurities, including height and how society perceives femininity and masculinity. They laugh about being compared to celebrities and wrestle with how social media shapes public opinion of their personalities. Despite their online personas, Supa and the hosts reveal they’re much more reserved in person, offering a refreshing glimpse into their authentic selves and much more.
