Today, more than ever, entertainer Keticia ‘TC’ Chatman, is encouraging everyone to embrace their beauty.

The dancer, actor, emcee, and television show host want everyone to ‘show off your melanin’ at her birthday party.

Chatman is closing out her 20s and enters her 30s on January 20. So, what better way to ring it in than with her now-tradition ‘Show Off Your Melanin’ bash?

Known for her grand celebrations, TC is pulling out all the stops to make this one the best yet.

Patrons who are familiar with Chatman’s style of events, may know it’s more than just a party — it’s a celebration of culture, self-love, and ‘the skin you’re in’.

‘This will be my final year of my 20s which has been about me learning and figuring out [who] I am. It's a milestone that symbolizes maturity, stability and approaching life with greater intention’, she told Loop News.

Chatman’s ‘Melanin’ event takes place today at the National Stadium Car Park and will be a showcase of deejays Banka x Poppi, DJ Pickit x DJ Slapweh, and DJ Unit.

In her 30th year, Chatman hopes to ‘be healthy, travel more, invest and try new experiences’.

‘Melanin’ is supported by Rum-Bar Rum Cream, tickets are going fast, and you can grab yours at Fierce by Dre (Mall Plaza), Loud Fashion (Bargain Mall), Minis Fashion (York Plaza), City Flames (Portmore), and Stephen Fashion (East Queen Street, Downtown). If you choose, tickets are also available online at eventrra.org.

This event is not just about partying; it’s a celebration of self-love, culture, and empowerment. ‘I think if you should choose to change your color it should be because you want not because you have been told your natural color is [unacceptable],’ she added, urging patrons to come dressed to impress and ready to revel in the celebration of melanin magic.
