New Footage of R Kelly and Underage Girl Turned Over To Authorities

Attorney Michael Avenatti, through research and investigation, reveals that a new sextape of Robert Kelly, aka "R. Kelly" involved in sex acts with a 14 year old girl has been turned over to  Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office in Chicago.  The video was turned over to Avenatti by a "whistleblower" who is allegedly very familiar with R Kelly and the young woman in the video.


CNN has revealed that they have viewed the tape, and it does indeed appear to show R Kelly involved in sex acts with a minor, although the young woman's age could not be determined by viewing the tape. However, her genitalia were referred to as "14 years old" in the video.  In the acclaimed docu-series Surviving R Kelly, one of his alleged victims stated that Kels liked for them to state their age during sexual activity. This is apparently a turn on for the serial predator. The newly released tape is about 45 minutes long.

According to Avenatti's statement, shared via twitter, he has been doing pro bono work for clients associated with the sexually predatory acts of the singer in an effort to get justice for his victims. The video is alleged to have taken place in the 90s, making R Kelly in the age range of 20s-30s.  The young woman refers to her private parts as "14", so if she was indeed 14 years old at the time of the taping, R Kelly could be charged with sexual assault or statutory rape.



So far, luck has been on his side.  Will this third time be a charm? Will they actually be able to convict R Kelly?

What do you think? Let's talk!

Why I'm Pissed at Cardi B

Cardi and her historic Grammy win via E! news
 I AM MAD AT YOU BELCALIS MARLENIS ALMANZAR CEPHUS!

On the same day that Cardi wins a Grammy, being the first solo female to win Best Rap Album in a genre and category dominated by men, her daughter Kulture finally says "momma", and then...and then...Cardi deletes her IG. And I am pissed. Thank you, social media trolls and bullies! 

First of all, I don't know why anyone goes out of there way to go to a  person's page that they don't like just to comment all that negativity and vitriol.  If I don't like you, why would I even go to your page?  Folks go all out of their way to comment from outside a club that they can't even get in.  For whyyyyyyyy???  Cardi B has deleted her page because of social media bullying, particularly, people popping off about her Grammy win, saying that she didn't deserve it.  Well, guess what?  Millions of people thought she did.  To win in a male dominated field and category should be considered an honor, but the trolls only see that their favorite didn't win.  They are mad because she won. They are mad because Offset supported his wife on stage. They are mad at everything she does. And they bully. And they bully. And. They. Bully.

I saw one comment that said that, in reference to scenes from the rapper Blueface's song with Cardi, that "that's all she's good for...being a stripper hoe and fake rapper".  Well, let me let you in on a lil' secret...last time I checked, dudes were paying to see hoes, not listen to them.  Cardi has made millions because people love HER and her MUSIC.  These record labels, fashion execs, etc. would not put the money behind Cardi if they didn't believe in her, just like her fans do.  They believe in her, and they support her! They buy the tickets, they buy the music.  Not only is she talented, she is beloved by celebs and non-celebs alike, because unlike some others, she doesn't present herself as "untouchable".  Cardi is truly the #PeoplesChamp!

And another thing you may not know...you can actually like both Cardi and Nicki. No one told you that? Well, like...yeah, you can.  In a male dominated field, how many of you only like 1 male rapper? I love TI, Gucci, Drake, Jay Cole, and 21 Savage. The same goes for women in the industry.  You can like more than one female MC. And if you don't--fine--you don't have to disrespect the others just because they are not your fav! Let's grow up, people!

But as to why I'm pissed at Cardi...Cardi has millions of fans that love and adore her. I'm one of those fans.  I have watched her go from social media, to #LoveandHipHop, to top of the charts, to now winning one of the music industry's highest honors.  My soror is a pastor that loves her. Another is a teacher that loves her. Children love her. Celebs love her. Old people love her. I couldn't be more proud of her if she were my own child.  Yet, to see her give so much power to the haters and trolls of social media is disheartening.  It shows me that no matter how many fans and supporters love her, the haters still have more influence over her than her millions of adoring fans.   It's also disheartening to see how evil social media trolls can be, to seek out a person that does not even know they exist, just to try to degrade them and minimize their accomplishment.  It's sick, and I hope you internet trolls play with matches wearing gasoline draws, you bitches....but I digress.

Cardi, I'm mad at you because you let their hate blind you to your fans love! Fuck 'em! Fuck 'em upside the wall with high heel shoes on!  I know it's hard, but for all the hatred, you have a whole planet that loves and supports you.  #BardiGang...forever!

Come back, Cardi!

Zimmerman and My "0" Fux Given

Yep. Title says it all. I can give "0" fux about George Zimmerman.

If I saw his azz on fire on the side of the road, and it started to rain, I'd build a shed to protect the fire, just to make sure it still burned.

I loathe George Zimmerman.

Although the Bible tells me to love my brother man, it does not mean that I have to like him.  And this bastard is anything but likable.

Let's get this straight--I'm not here to debate whether Zimmerman was justified in shooting Trayvon.  He wasn't, the jury decided that he was, and that is that.  We can't change that outcome.  Yet, not even the fact that he shot this young man, someone's son, and to this day, shows no real remorse, is not absolutely mind boggling to me.  What blows my scalp, what makes me effing hot, what makes me want to drive over his azz in the old '02 Dodge Stratus I used to drive, is the fact that this man can be so cold and calculating in his efforts to sell the gun that was responsible for killing a young man. Someone's son.  A child. Trayvon Martin.

Let's take justification off of the table, because that's the first thing that his supporters will yell. "He was justified! It's his gun, he can do what he wants!" Yes, that's true! ALL of that is true.  But we're not talking about technicalities. We are talking about something that is all too lacking, not just in George Zimmerman, but in society as a whole: We're talking just common DAMN decency.  What happened to common decency? What happened to compassion?  As a human being, the fact that Zimmerman took a life with that gun, a life that belonged to a young man, who had not even begun to live his life, that fact alone should be enough to make Zimmerman despise himself.  Zimmerman committed a murder, made a joke of the justice system, and with his careless, most times violent, and callous acts of abuse and intimidation, continues to make a mockery of not only that same system, but of the life that Sabrina and Tracy gave to Trayvon. This young man had a family that loved him, just like Zimmerman, but for some reason, none of that matters to Zimmerman. How does he think that they feel, watching him parade around, a pseudo-celebrity, peddling the gun the took the life of their son? My heart aches for them, and you would think that George would have a some compassion for them, even if just a little.

The media has made Zimmerman a celebrity of sorts, and although notorious, he is using that platform for all the worth he can drain from it.  My prayer is that this same social media that he uses as a platform to elevate his violent, racist antics, is the same social media that will soon expose the world to his downfall. He's a p***y of the highest pedigree. A straight effing coward.

If Zimmerman were to lose his life at someone else's hand, would he want for the weapon to be flaunted as a trophy and a blatant slap in the face to his family?  I'm willing to bid on that weapon, and I pray that I am alive to see the day. I'm not praying for his extinction, but know that I'm not NOT praying for it, either. Hell, I'm still a work in progress, so just pray for me.

FUX George Zimmerman, and the pony he rode in on.
B.A.N!!!!!!!!

#KattWilliams vs Grown 7th Grade Man-Child (Full Video)

By now, I know everyone has seen the #KattWilliams memes floating around of him getting into a physical altercation with a reported 15 year old 7th grader, and coming out on the losing end of the stick.  Another "L" for Katt Williams, right? This year surely isn't starting off great for the legendary comic.

However, this morning, I awoke to find the full video of the altercation.  It shows what appears to be a friendly game of soccer, with Katt Williams playing with the kids, then culminating with a fight between Katt and said 7th grader.

Watch the video for yourself:


I still don't think that Katt should have allowed himself to get into a physical altercation with this kid.  It isn't a good look for his career, and he has the potential to face criminal and/or civil liability.  Instead of telling the young man to "come on", Katt should have told him to sit his bad ass down somewhere, and got another adult involved.  Still, I have questions. So, riddle me this :

1.  Why is this little boy 15 years old and in the 7TH GRADE? He's not a teen; he's a man-child.

2.  I'm sure others saw this crowd accumulating around Katt and this young man, so why were there no other adults trying to keep this altercation from occurring? Why did no adults try to defuse the situation, or at least, get control of the aforementioned man-child?

3.  Who raised this young man? Why did he feel comfortable mouthing off to a grown man? This boy has no respect for adults, obviously.

I'm not co-signing what Katt did, but watching the whole video definitely makes his actions understandable.

Amber, Kim, and Beyonce--Not Classism, Just Realism



 Recently, Amber Rose came under fire from the Beyhive, and many others as well, for making a very faulty, misleading comparison between herself and her sisterwife Kim, and Beyonce.  Now, I'm not a STAN for anyone (but my girl Fantasia), so I don't have anything to gain from bashing any of these ladies, and I won't.  However, I think there are some things that should be pointed out. Amber's reasoning as to why she and Kim are "slut-shamed", and not Beyonce, makes no sense. I can make my case in 3 simple points:


 1.  Beyonce IS OFTEN criticized for being overly-sexual. From her costumes to her dance to her song topics, she is considered by many to NOT be a role model for young girls. This nullifies Amber's position that only her and Kim are criticized for being sexual, and Beyonce isn't. It's just not true. 


2. Amber mentions that it's her and Kim's past that continue to cause them to be "slut-shamed" (I hate that word. I really do.). I wholeheartedly, passionately, shaking-my-head-til-I-get-a-damn-migraine disagree.  Both Kim and Amber continue to bring the remnants of their past into their present, and I suppose that has more to do with their characterizations than just what they did in the past.  What I respect about Amber is that she doesn't give a damn, though.  She owns it.  But if you "own" it, don't turn around and say "but don't call me that!", when that's exactly how you continue to
portray yourself in the media.


3. Referring to point #2, when Beyonce is not on stage performing, she presents herself in a very respectable manner--she presents as a MOTHER.  She understands that even though she is a grown ass woman, and has EVERY right to dress as she pleases, the ramifications of her actions exceed her lifetime. They will eventually seep into the life of her child.  So she acts like a mother, and dresses like one.  When was the last time you saw Beyonce post a "thirst-trap" to social media? Beyonce feels just as empowered clothed as she does performing on stage. Has nothing to do with her talent. Has EVERYTHING to do with how she carries herself.

I used to be a hoe, and if someone called me a "hoe", what was I to do? It was the truth.  My thing is, if that's what you want, do it. Own it.  But don't expect people to stop calling you on it.  It is what it is.  I'm all for #WomensEmpowerment and #WomensRights. I'm also for keeping it real, and I'm just being real.

Katt and Kevin--Ain't No #Illuminati, Bih!

via Sandra Rose
Update 3/7/2016:  Katt Williams Gets Jumped at a Beanie Sigel show in Philadelphia  (Yall, Katt has some serious issues going on.  Instead of blaming the "Illuminati", it's time to face the fact that Katt needs help, and until he is able to get the help that he needs, he will continue on this roller coaster of erratic behavior, which may eventually lead to him being seriously hurt or even killed.)

Original Post

 I haven't blogged in a minute, but then came Katt! Katt Williams, that is!

Katt has been in the news lately because of some very inflammatory things that he said about Kevin Hart during a recent comedy performance. Katt insinuated that Kevin's success was due to performing sexual acts (oral and/or anal) for "industry people", and that he was a puppet for the same.  Now, as far as anyone knows, this attack was unprovoked and came completely out of left field.  If this was just for publicity on behalf of Katt Williams to boost show attendance, or whatever the reason may be, remains to be seen. Now, Katt's allegedly apologized (I haven't seen the video), and been arrested, and of course, it's being blamed on the "Illuminati"! However, I think there is a little something else going on, and AIN'T IT AIN'T NO ILLUMINATI, BIH!

Since the idea of the "Illuminati" was introduced to a generation that is, to say the least, gullible and willing to believe anything, anytime an entertainer has unprecedented success or unforeseen failure, you have folks that are quick to exclaim "it's the Illuminati!" or "it's the industry coming after him". Really, people? My personal opinion is that anyone that believes that the "Illuminati" is responsible for an entertainers successes or failures does not believe in, or respect, a little thing called "personal accountability".  Now, I'm not naive. Do I believe that there are cliques of individuals that have money and power that are movers and shakers in the industry, and have the power to make or break careers? Yes. I also believe that we are accountable for our actions, and that choices we make influence the path that our lives may take, whether that be positive or negative. Folks say that Jay Z is "Illuminati". So, the fact that he was grinding at 17, even opening local NY shows for BIGGIE SMALLS, has nothing to do with it, huh? Jennifer Hudson sacrificed her family for fame--what about the fact that she was singing on a cruise ship, paying dues, way before American Idol? But it's all due the "Illuminati", huh? The fact that many people work hard to get where they are just has nothing to do with it. Oh, ok.

Let's look at the logic of whether or not Katt Williams is under attack by the "Illuminati".  Katt Williams is known for the antics that we have seen in the tabloids and blogs this week.  If you do the research, you will see that Katt's violent outbursts and unpredictable behavior is almost cyclical.  Katt has periods where he is "way up", followed by periods where he is "waaaaay down". During these periods, his behavior is unpredictable and erratic.  It's during these times, when we have seen him doing well, that he (to us), suddenly begins to have violent outbreaks and starts going to jail. I'm no psychiatrist, but Katt does exhibit the behaviors of a person with bipolar disorder. Do you know how many mugshots Katt has? Look it up. He even talked about his issues on the Arsenio Hall Show. So, for one to say that he is going through these issues because he attacked Kevin Hart and is now under attack, makes no sense at all. This has been Katt's M.O. for YEARS! It has been reported by someone that claimed to be a friend of Katt's, that Katt Williams has mental issues, and that during times when he is not taking his medications, or not taking them correctly, that we start to see this strange behavior from Katt Williams. It makes PERFECT sense. Mental illness is real, and nothing to be ashamed of.  Katt's attack on Kevin was likely due to these same issues. So was his subsequent arrest.

Let's look at this again, LOGICALLY! If Katt Williams is under attack from the "Illuminati" because he attacked Kevin Hart, then why is Mike Eppes having one of the most successful years of his career? Mike, in several radio interviews, with "hateration" dripping from his tongue, came out and publicly bashed Kevin, on more than one occasion.  So...what...the "Illuminati" doesn't like Mike enough to give him a second thought, but they'd rather come after Katt? If Kevin was a "puppet" for the industry, as Katt called him, wouldn't Mike be under attack to? Yet, he has a new movie and several tv projects coming out this year.  Go figure, huh?

All I'm saying is, folks, let's use some common sense. Yall blaming everything on the "Illuminati"...well, I ain't calling you stupid, but you do have some "stupidish characteristics". I'm just saying. Yall making my damn head hurt. Let's just pray for Katt.  He's one of my favorite entertainers, and I would love to see him reach his true comic genius potential. Forget this "Illuminati" BS and #PrayForKatt. (P.S. The "Illuminati" yall need to be worried about is spelled "T-R-U-M-P". So get out and vote!)

Amina, Tara, & Peter (Chapter One Hundred Fifty Million)

Ok. Let me just say this. This will be the LAST time that I post about the highly dysfunctional, three-way relationship that is #LHHNY's Amina, Tara, and Peter. To be honest, the back and forth between all of them is starting to wear on my nerves, and well...I. Just. Can't.

One thing that has struck a nerve with me, though, is the statement that Peter made on the last episode (I believe). He took all the blame for the hurt that he has inflicted on Tara and Amina. Even though Peter does shoulder most of the blame for this situation in which he most certainly is the common denominator, cheating and impregnating another woman while married, there is someone else that should shoulder as much blame as him, and that is Tara.

We go so hard on Amina. Although Amina has accepted much more abhorrent, disgusting behavior from Peter than I ever could, I almost can see Amina's...I don't want to say "logic"...let's just say "motivation", for allowing herself to become pregnant by Peter (even though she aborted THIS child, it is widely reported that she is pregnant again). We may call her "stupid", but what we have to understand is that at the end of the day, this is her HUSBAND. Not her "sided***", not her "bae", this is her husband. Biblically, loving, supporting, and PROCREATING with her husband is what she is supposed to do. Amina married Peter because she LOVED him, and she is trying to make her marriage work. Now, I know that by now, I would have left Peter, or slit his damn throat, whichever came first, but I still understand that she loves her husband. That's her motivation. But that damn Tara...

Tara pretends to be this super confident, strong black woman, but nothing, and I mean NADA--none of her actions personify this independent sister that she wants for us to see. Tara is the key, the "tie that binds", mind you, that keeps this whole mess going. Let me break this down for you young sistas (older, like Tara, if you don't know already): In a relationship, a man is only going to do what a woman allows him to do. If Tara wasn't welcoming Peter with open arms, willing to spread her legs at his beck and call, then she wouldn't be a single mother of almost 3. When I was going thru it with one of my boyfriends, when he wanted to see his son, he came and picked him up; if my son wanted to see him, I took him to his dad. You can't sit around under me...we don't have to be around each other for you to be a father to your son. That's how you handle that. Peter didn't just fall in the p****; Tara threw him a rope and pulled him in! You can't move into the same building with your kids' father, knowing you still have feelings for him, but claiming it's for the kids. No, bitch, it's for YOU! Do you think I would have moved into an apartment building with my children's father, and he's married to another woman? Hell no! Tara did it because she still wants Peter. Eh, Tara, if you like it I love it, but you're still a damn fool!

 Tara had the nerve to tell Amina that Amina wants her life and that's why she allowed herself to become pregnant. Now, damn, Tara. She wants YOUR life? Really? And what life is that? Peter has children with four other women, so...what life are you speaking of? The life of a single mother? Not hard to get that. The life of a woman that KNOWINGLY gets pregnant by another woman's husband, thinking she's proving a point, but only making herself look ridiculous? The life of a woman that that was Peter's girlfriend for 13 years, but couldn't get a ring? What life does she want, Tara? Enlighten me, because I am seriously confused. Amina slept with, and became pregnant by her husband, because that's what most wives do. If she's using a baby to hold on to Peter, what's your excuse? Isn't that why you waited until you were 18 weeks to reveal...Peter couldn't ask for an abortion then, and you know that he would. No, Amina's not thirsty, but you're dying of dehydration! And when did the wife have to start asking for permission from the sidechick to get pregnant by her own husband? I don't see why Tara doesn't see the logic in this.

But what's funny is...Tara has the nerve to act indignant. As if she really has a place to be mad in this situation. There wouldn't BE a situation if it weren't for Tara. I almost sympathize with her, though. You have to be a sad person, devoid of self-worth, to compete for a trophy that isn't worth winning. She's a beautiful, smart woman, and hopefully reality will set in, because this... Tara could have shut this sh** down a long time ago, if she loved herself more that she loved Peter. If she were really "doing this for the kids", then she wouldn't be in this baseline, ghetto relationship that is her, Amina, and Peter. I could go on, but long story short, I'm sick and damn tired of seeing this bullsh** that is these three. Can #LHHNY come up with another story line for these three...please?

They say love is blind...they didn't say it was deaf, dumb, and retarded, too. *sigh*
