Okay, after last week’s episode I really just want to set Fab’s balls on fire! but since I would get arrested for such an attempt, I will just say that he is not a real man. Not much else I can say…ready for this week’s episode. Oh Yeh, Olivia’s manager…. he’s still a bitch! Let these people talk. GROW THE FUCK UP! Okay…showtime.

Take 2 in 5, 4, 3, 2, 2, 2, #MyMicSoundsNice Check 2

So, I was soooooo shocked when I found out that this was the Finale?!!!! Didnt I JUST start dogging this show out a few weeks ago? Isn’t SOmaya still a no name wannabe? Olivia a scared cling-on who sings beautifully? Emily the main side chick to Fab? Chrissy the headstrong rich in-house wifey?

Okay, Mama Jones…..sitcho (yes, sitcho)  Frankie-looking behind back, no disrespect….let this man live his life. And did Mama Jones just say that Chrissy didn’t know how to be family “orien-tated”? Families have orientations now?

I simply LOVE Chrissy’s red shoes!!!!!!!! Her style is on point at times.

Okay… Jim needs to teach a class on how to treat your woman. This walk and hotel room is gorgeous and sexy!

And I know that I don’t know everything that is going on in their relationship…..btu from the snippet of what I see, this man is showing you the way that HE loves you. Not the way you want him to love you, but the way that he KNOWS how to love. The ONLY time you should complain is if he isn’t loving you the way you NEED to be loved. Wanting and Needing him to love you a certain way are two totally different things. Pick your battles.

Okay, I am all for a strong black woman, but Chrissy is making it hard for the rest of us. Honey, you never give a man an ultimatum. I repeat, you NEVER give a man an ultimatum!!!!! You played your hand and gave him the power when you stepped out of your role and proposed to him. If he wasnt moving at your pace….take a break and if he wants you…he will find you.  BUT I SWEAR IF I SEE YOU IN THE STREET I AM PUNCHING YOU IN THE THROAT!!!!!! Strong women dont propose to a man! WHERE FUCK DO THEY DO THAT AT?!!!!! We are strong enough to make the man come to us, and if the one we want doesnt come, move on to the next one. If he doesnt know if he wants to marry you after 6 years, then nothing you can say will make him marry you in another two if he doesnt damn well please. OH MY BLOOD IS BOILING BECAUSE OF THIS!

Ummmmm, Mashonda seems to smile every time that Emily comes and tells her that her relationship with Fab is shaky. I am not saying she is happy to hear the news, but she does have this subtle grin on her face. If I’m lying…replay the tape. Maybe it is just the way her face is, either way…a smile/smirk is on her face.

What is up with Somaya and this pleather, pink crop jacket? That jacket is so small  that it looks like her breasts are being smothered by a pack of fruity Bubbalicious bubble gum. And I wish that Somaya would stop hyping Jim Jones like that. See how yall gas people up. You were NOT gonna get mirked on television while the cameras were on. Point. Blank. Period. So please, stop testing my intelligence with your television thug act.  If he wanted to mirk you because he was a REAL thug, fuck a camera….he would be behind bars right now. End of story. So, not that we have all of this phony bullshit out of the way… NEXT! *Proceeds to buy Somaya clothes that fit her*

I am still laughing on the inside that Mama Jones is rocking a shirt that says, ” Idaho?” lmao! REALLY?!!!! She wants Chrissy to give Jim a baby? Tell that negro to marry her and she will give him a baby. That’s how I see it. So until your son is ready to make it official so that his child wont be a bastard child….you wont get a grandchild.

I need to have a sleepover at my house with my girls. I mean, damn! This sleepover should have been called Breast Fest.But I find it hilarious that Chrissy is in a onesie with the footies…lls. And wait….did Emily just say that she thought that most of Fab’s songs were about her? Which one? PLEASE LET ME KNOW so I can go back and analyze.

Wait…that’s it?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My conclusion on the entire season? Ummmm, I am just as confused now as I was when I first started watching. I want our celebs to do better for themselves. They have been allotted the opportunity to have a better life than most and they are still behaving as if they live in the projects and push a hood-rich decked-out Honda. I expect more. I feel like they are wasting what they have. Again, I say they are nothing but glorified niggers. You will only make me change my opinion when they change their behavior. Not asking them to be role models, but I am asking them to do better for themselves.  I have a feeling that they will be back for a second season. By then, I pray that these women will learn to step their self-esteems up a notch to the point where they wont have to wait on a man, cling to a group, complain about a man, and claim to be more than what they are. I pray that some things happen in the meantime. I know it wont be worth entertainment for them to improve themselves, but I do pray for them to improve.

Sincerely,

Episode 3: Hater to the Left of Them

Episode 4: Willie Lynch’s Dream

Episode 5: High School Clicks

Episode 6: Indignant Proposal

Okay, you all should already know that I am on pins and needles to write about this show. Today has proven to be a good day in the first place. First…. I freed up some space in my daily planner, watched some people act unprofessional in the wake of that decision…and then I purchased a Nook. Yes, a Nook! Forget the ignant (yes, ignant) sons of bitches in the day…the Nook took the cake. And then I hosted a poetry open mic that had the best audience ever!!! I mean, I have been blessed with the best audiences lately…but I digress.

Okay… too much excitement going on in the course of my day to recap you, so you will have to click the links above. Let’s get to the goods!

Take 2 in 5, 4, 3, 2, 2, 2, #Proposal

So, I must confess in my rather sober state….Chrissy is slowly growing on me. But dont repeat it. This is between you and I…okay.

DAMN!!!!! Mama Jones’ face just hit the floor with that proposal. If I could film Nancy’s face…. I would sell it on eBay. Awwwwwww but Jim said yeh!!!! Awwww, my heart goes out to him and Chrissy. He is such a man’s man. And yes…. I agree with Chrissy, “what the fuck does ‘I’m witchu’ mean?” Jimmy… you didn’t say yes you will marry her. But I disagree with Chrissy, I will wait for my guy to propose to me. I’ll never propose to a guy.

And why is it that Nancy is punking everyone? How come no one can hold her back? She weighs all of 2 nuts sacks and a crack pipe…but no one can control or block her? LMAO!!! That was just funny to watch. And Nancy, with all due respect…parents arent always told, they are sometimes surprised like everyone else. And the only time the parents are told is if the son is asking for the daughter’s hand in marriage. This is unconventional, hence the unconventional method of not telling the parent.

LMAO! Jimmy said “I’m still here. My clothes are still upstairs” lmao! I like the way he thinks. He put Chrissy’s complaining in perspective. And then…. CHRISSY!!!!! Chrissy, boo, don’t give a man an ultimatum. YOU proposed to HIM!!! If he would have said no in front of everyone you would have been hurt and embarrassed.  So he saved face and then you need to wait and give him time to accept what you placed on his table. Dont rush it now.

Now….First off, last time we heard Somaya’s song, it wasnt finished…and now she somehow found the money to do a video? Who is funding this? Not to be all up in her purse straps like that, but is she still sleeping in the loft above the studio? And wow… Emily just can’t get enough of the drama…. I would have stayed away from Somaya. Point. Blank. Period. And yeh, this whole entire going on the internet to start a beef. Be the bigger woman, take the higher road and let the shit be. I hate simple-minded females who wont accept that they were wrong, and they get a whole bunch of other simple minded females to back them up. Grow up!!!!! That’s about a stupid as people writing subliminal Facebook statuses about people they  are mad about…lol. When you are right, you live with that. You let the hater shit roll off your back and you keep it going. Only basic bitches harbor on that stuff. It is quite comical if you ask me. But…..I digress.

And JIM AND THIS NEW SONG…… PRICELESS!!! This song about Chrissy is amazing!!! And the way that Jim confesses his love on National TV…. I continue to applaud him for being a man. I can not say that enough.

Wow!!! Fabolous didn’t even want to be in the family portrait with them just because the cameras were going to be around. And I am not going to talk about anyone’s kid…but her son is in need of a time out. And Fab didn’t even pick up the phone when she called? Wow….. I want to sympathize with her because her home life isn’t the prettiest…or at least that is how it is portrayed…but I have a problem with women who just wont get up and leave. Not to compare, but I will….Jim kisses, loves, and confesses his love for Chrissy in damn near EVERY episode of this show. His boys may pick on him, Olivia may joke, but that doesn’t make Jim any less of a man. Hell, it makes him sexy as hell and a model for what real men should do when they are in love. So, if Fab loves Emily… why can’t he step out into the light and claim his family? I really have a problem with this Skeletor looking motherfucker right now. I will send prayers of strength out to Emily, because no one deserves to be treated like that. She better start raising her Kelly Pitts emergency funds.

Okay, so I know that Rich is upset….but for a man to go off on a woman for ANY reason….you are not a man. Again….Rich, with your trying to be hard as hell bullshit….let it go. You are feeding into this. The fact that you are getting upset about a no name wanna be rapper is proving that she has the power to get under your skin. POW! She wins!!! Grow the fuck up. Again, this mess drives me nuts. Punk asses! Yeh… I said it, let the shit go. And I’m done.

Episode 5: High School Clicks

Okay, so I am sitting here with my diva @Shinin_Light and I am introducing her to this show… yes, I can’t watch this by myself. I would love to hear what she has to say about this. Comedy is in my near future.

Take 2 in 5, 4, 3, 2, 2, 2,2 #MyMicSoundsNice check 2

Oh Lord…..Jim Jones can’t take care of the dog, House? Dont Mike Vic the dog!!!. And yeh… House is a huge ass dog. Ewwwwwww! House pooped inside of the store and Jim didn’t clean it up. Yuck!! Chrissy, you are a better woman than I could ever be on that on. I would have told him to clean his poo up. *bad taste in my mouth*

I love how Oliva tested my intelligence and thought that she had to define “listening party”. Ok, so she said that it is for the purpose of getting to know the “real” Olivia. I am glad that something is going to let us get to know her…. because so far all I have seen is who Olivia can morph into whenever a new crew comes around. And like her manager Rich said….”Wal-Mart is accepting apps”….should she not know how to stay out of mess and focus more on her music.

Okay, so, you [Chrissy] have been with Jim Jones for 6 years, but your man has not proposed to you so you feel like you have to step up? That man is one of the manliest(sp) men I know….and you will take that role away from him? And I mean, really, Chrissy… you sat there and you listened to Olivia as to what to do about this? This is the same bitch that lied about dating another man? Oh Lord… please don’t ever let me be that desperate enough to ever feel like I have to ask a man to marry me. *Sigh* I am not the biggest Chrissy fan, but my inner feminist is screaming “Bitch, you better not”. THIS is why men say you better not talk to your single friends about shit. Even @shinin_light just said that Chrissy went to Olivia because she knew that she would say what she wanted to hear, and that was a yes. Sad…lol. Please don’t go through with it.

*Takes a drink of my alcohol*  I had to drink to watch this week. *@shinin_light pours Moscato*

First off… Chrissy can’t keep her balance….lol. Second,this is funny as shit! But really? You are thinking of performing a burlesque routine in front of Jim Jones’ FAMILY?!!!! And then you picked out the ring too? Wow….. this ring is gorgeous. But of course the jeweler would tell her that “men need a push to get things done”. Girl, he just wants your money, all $12K of it.

Now, Olivia, honey… really? I can’t even comment on this. You are holding grudges over bullshit. THIS is why it appears that you don’t have any friends. Just hear the girl [Emily] out and then tell her to not do it again. I mean, didn’t you JUST make it into this click? But at least you can sing…because you can sing yourself all the way to the bank….but you need to let all of the negativity go. Take it from me, your personality will preceed you. Now, if your boob falls out of that halter dress… I am posting that pic. lol. Oh snap… Tocora was in the audience. Cool.

Ummmm.. Olivia, you said “funest”? Really? Hmmmm… Hooked on Stupid, worked for me.

And I thought that my breasts were huge…but I think Chrissy may have me beat! lol. You better work it for the Big Titty Committee, diva!!!!

WOW!!!! Was Chrissy really thinking of dancing in just the lace outfit? I am glad that she is going against doing the burlesque side of it. Yeh, diva… YOU deserve better….fuck Jim… you deserve to be taken seriously…lol. But you also deserve a man who will not hesitate for one second when it comes to asking you to marry him. I know I clown you out in all of my blogs, but I seriously want every woman to stand their ground and never have to propose to a man. Remember, men so what they want to do while women do what they must. If he hasnt done it… he wasnt ready; end of story. *Sigh* I have so much to say on that, but wont. Just know that every time a woman proposes to a man, a hoodrat gets its cheese.

LMAO!!! Mama Jones is a trip! And the way that Olivia tried to shut her up with the wine . But wow… .I hate how they cut off the proposal. Did Jim say yes? What is going on!!! Okay… I didnt get to clown on this episode as hard as I would like. In the famous words of Hancock, “I’ve been drinking, bitch” hahahaha. But I am proud of Chrissy for sticking to her guns and doing it in a classy manner. That much I do approve of. But Lawd knows that I cant wait til next week. Hmmmm…..And Scene.

Episode 4: Willie Lynch’s Dream

Wowzers! Did Swizz Beats and Alicia Keys approve their photos being shown on this show? Wowzers. I mean , I understand the significance of it being there…but come on. Get approval.

Adriene…hmmmmm…chick on Fab’s label? Fab has a label? You learn something new every day…lol. Wow, Emily…honey. Wait.. Fab’s name is John.. or did she say Sean? I need to do my research. I mean, really? Honey… if your man can’t claim you, no matter his career… then he doesn’t care about you. Jim claims Chrissy and that shit is sexy as fuck! This erotic poem Emily is about to do in Chrissy’s closet better not suck!! Y’all know that I am a poet!

*Blank Stare*

Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! But if your sex game is as horrible as how you read/wrote that poem, then I see why Fab doesn’t claim you. lmao!

Wow, I am feeling Olivia’s song December and since that is my birth month, I was going to clown her, and clown her HARD if it came across horrible. Wow… I may have to Google some old Olivia songs, because I don’t remember her having pipes like that. But at least I don’t have to jump on her like I did Somaya. EXACTLY! Just like the manager said…..no one knew that she could sing. And yes, I take my fidora off for her. Brava, diva! If you find a group of positive people around you who will hold you up and will not put you in stupidity and you will shine.  Boo, I’m not gonna call you stupid, but I can say that you are not acting smart.

WOW!!! Mashonda‘s house looks horrible!!! Wow! It looks like Hurricane Katrina made a house call and stayed for a while. I mean, does she still stay there? And yeh, how could Swizz let the mother of his child, and possibly the child, stay in a place like this? Ewww. But what I don’t like is that when someone’s life goes horrible, they try to tell everyone else that it wont last for them. No,honey… it didn’t work for you. But you can tell people how to prepare and learn from your mistakes, but you don’t indirectly tell them that they will wind up where you are. I feel horrible for Mashonda, but I still want Emily to sit her ass down.

Okay, speaking of Emily…DAMN @ HER ASS!!! Her ass has its own zip code! Okay, JEALOUS!!! But what I am NOT jealous of is her inability for her to think for her self and seeing a set-up coming. damn this bitch bothers me.

Hmmm.. Power of the P , I would probably need to hear this entire show in order to get a better feel of it. But I really do want a T-Shirt.  Umm…okay, as a poet, I give EMily applause for getting on stage and performing. I will have to listen to it again to do more than just applaud the effort. I don’t like the bitch THAT much.

Okay, so Chrissy & Somaya are cool now? And now…..I spoke too soon. Olivia , honey….I don’t remember you ever fighting anyone in your G-Unit days. And you need to make up your mind about how you feel about G-Unit. Because last episode you jokes on them and now you are holding them down because you want to be a thug. I dont get it. Just be Olivia. Stop running to G-Unit when it suffices, and stop clinging to Jim when it pleases. It makes you look like the 2nd string cool kid who no one really claims but you always manage to be around.

Ummm… can someone please teach Chrissy how to sit like a lady b/c she is one jump away from having a Brittany Spears/Paris Hilton flash moment.   But I am all ready to BUST Olivia in her face now. I mean, really Olivia? Stop running. You are such a thug…stand there and have it out and if it pops off, then it pops off.  But that is just my opinion.

But…. I will be watching next week.

Episode 1: Should’ve Called It Rap

Episode 2: Basketball Jump-offs Set to Music

Episode 3: Hater to the Left of Them

So… I have to give applause where applause is due… last week’s episode was very entertaining. Coonish, but entertaining. Who wants to be rich if you are still surrounded by glorified hoodrats and insecure chicks? I’m just saying. Nothing about these women scream classy, refined, intelligent, and they may very well be all of these things, but we don’t see it. And I know, the television company picks and chooses what they want to show, but if this ignorance wasnt presented to the cameras then it would not be there.  Yes, you have more money than me, and yes, you get to go places that I currently can’t go… but in all honesty, I’d rather stay my happy ass here than to have to deal with that foolishness. To what level of coon is one willing to reach in order to put money in their pocket?

I have to admit, I didn’t know who ANY of these women were ( with the exception of Mashonda and Olivia) before this damn show. I wouldn’t even be watching the show if I didn’t think that I could poke fun at high-priced niggas. I’d rather be watching the History Channel or watching another medical mystery be revealed on the Discovery Channel; something, anything, that would keep my brain cells active. I just need our people to do better. I need for Chrissy to stop jumping the gun and know her place, and it isn’t in 79% of the places where she thinks it is. I need Olivia to get better friends and stop becoming apart of these clicks; first G-Unit and now this? I need for Emily to….ugh… I can’t stand weak women….just get some self-esteem. I need for Somaya to get a hearing aid, listen to her music and be real with herself. Honey…unless I am deaf…you cant rap.  Now, having said all of that. There is SOMETHING that all of these women are good at. I want them to cultivate that instead of head snaps, yo mama jokes, and ass flashing. Okay….enough of my rant.

Take 2 in 5, 4, 3, 2, 2, 2, #MyMicSoundsNice , Check 2

As I watch this fight go on, all I can see is Somaya’s interview snippets and think “this is how Nicki Minaj would look if she gained weight.” I mean wow… how fucked up to be stuck on a boat when you are arguing with someone. And THEN Olivia has to go out and pass gossip on to Chrissy. I mean, saying that Dip Set is your fam…..REWIND!!! Didn’t the first episode showcase Chrissy saying that she JUST met Olivia? Now two episodes later they are your FAM? Come on now! I’m calling your ass out! Jim Jones is as much of your fam as Reavis is your man.

And it just irks my fucking nerves to see Emily playing all hard. But again, I guess you have to bring your miserable ass company when your home isn’t up to parr.

WAIT FOR IT!!!!!!! JIM!!!! Okay, so who is the dude with the blurred out face? I mean really….this shit is straight staged!!! Jim knew that the cameras would be there. He knew that shit and went to look hard. If the cameras weren’t gonna be there then it would have been some “let that nigga talk” tip. And Olivia needs to keep G-Unit out of her mouth, because I don’t even want to switch over to Twitter to see what 50Cent is about to say about her after that comment. *Ugh* Rich niggas. This aint nothing but Willie Lynch’s masturbation theme music. Yes, I said it. Dance, niggas, dance!! Show the world that you get in your feelings because someone said you make way less than what you make. If it isn’t true, let the nigga talk, get your game up and then hit Forbes top 10. Get ya game up, go buy the nigga a car, free of charge, and tell them to take that to the bank …or how about you be an adult and just let the nigga talk!!! I am really getting upset at this high school bullshit!

MESSAGE: Jim, I KNOW you have more common sense than what you have displayed here. Who is Maurice to you? NOBODY!!! I didn’t know the nigga existed until this show. Do you REALLY think that people were going to take his word over what we “think” we know of you? We own your albums! We watch your videos! We see your live performance! We flock the clubs for your appearances!! Is this NOT enough to show you that if ten thousand of us show up with $1 that you at LEAST made that, but since clubs cost $20 on average to get in and sometimes $60 to $100 when a celeb shows up, then common fucking sense would tell you that you make MORE than $10k in an hour?!!!!! So you risked your career all in the name of your hood credit, your street rep all over a no-named oompaloompa?! Come on! Be a man!! Fuck all this hood shit! You put in all this hard work to get OUT of the hood, to live a better life and to provide for your family. Why the fuck are you bringing the hood along with you?! You DO NOT owe the hood, Jim!!!!! So from me to you, grow the fuck up! And if you want to come find me… come find me and we can talk… put 50 on it… you wont Maurice me, that much I know. I just need you to do better! I pray that you do better!

Ummmmmm did he just call Chrissy his WIFE? Really? If that is your wife, WIFE her. And I need Olivia to put on a bra. Saggy titties aint cute. Just like Olivia sitting there trying to talk all hard and talk up Jim Jones. Chrissy… You can come find me and we can talk this shit out too. I am @_2Deep_ on Twitter…just let me know when you want to talk. I TOO can upgrade you if you would get your mind right. Honey….there is more to this life than this foolishness that you are displaying on this screen. People are laughing AT you and Jim and not with you.  You want to know why? Men of power don’t have to go do the dirty work….they let it roll or have goons who do it for them.

I feel like I am preaching to a deaf choir.

And now this bitchass Maurice is trying to make Somaya feel bad. Stupid, YOU were the one who said that Jim Jones only made $10k a year.  If YOU didn’t say that then Jim wouldn’t have to come and hem you up! So YOU, yes, YOU MAURICE….you need to learn how to keep your mouth closed.

DAAAAAAAAAAAAMN!!! XO!!!!! Where is this negro from? Does he have a brother? Hot damn!!! Yummy!!! From his voice, to his look, to his height, to his….damn!! *sigh* Too bad I gave up on dudes. But if I ever came back…. I would be out in Cali looking for XO…lmo. These are just jokes! But, in all honesty….this side of Somaya, with XO, is a side of her brand that she needs to work with further. It is a softer side that the rap industry is missing. All of the females that come in feel they must compete with the dudes, and yes…they do ( kind of)….but there needs to be some feminine energy there as well. 

Okay, sooooooo XO is from The Game’s record label? So, she went from Jim Jones’ goons to 50Cent’s flunky? Wowzers! But I really do love his voice, I just think that his lyrical content could come a littler harder. But, for the snippet that I saw…. it may work.

Now, next week’s episode. SMH. I have too much to say to write it in this one. Just know that I will be here writing next week!

And Scene

Episode 2: Basketball Jump-offs Set to Music

Before I begin….what is up with Chrissy’s airbrushed armpits in this pic above? I just had to point that out.

Okay, so if you havent checked out my blog from last week (Episode 2) then you missed the confrontation that came from an anonymous blogger who called me everything but a child of God. LMAO! COMEDY!!!!! Therefore, I want to make sure that I hit every aspect of this episode to the best of my ability. I want to get the same reaction as I did last week. It will let me know that my game is up to parr if I get hated on!!!

Take 2 in 5, 4, 3, 2, 2, 2, 2, #MyMicSoundsNice Check 2

Okay, fresh back from Busboys and Poets, my diva Eboni “That Hoe” “Male Bashing” “Click, Not Clit” “Interior Decorated Pussy Having” Hogan is here with me and I cant wait to hear what she has to say about this show. Eboni said, “Boom that’s my bio!” Oh my word…. I’m not going to sleep any time soon. I love this girl; she’s off the chain! [Yeh, inside joke…..you had to be at her performance to know the joke. Hope you guys show up to her feature tomorrow!]

Sooooo, why did Chrissy & Emily just tag team Olivia?  Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaait! Did Emily just say, “If I’m in the club aint no one on Fab’s hip.”? Ummmmm what about the red carpet? lmao! What about a premiere? What about a magazine? What about Google? lmao! Okay… I had to go there.

And all of these bitches up in the club pretending to support Somaya is HORRIBLE!!! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaait (<~My new phrase for this episode) What the fuck is wrong with Somaya & what is she smoking?! I think her delusions are better than Blue Magic if she said that her song did well in the venue. lmao!!!!!

Eboni: Her words were like 5 beats BEHIND the beat.  (2Deep: Nothing is funnier, than listening to Eboni say “come on , honey, catch up.”)

Again, WHY is Emily all up in someone else’s business when your home aint straight? I’m not going off of tabloids, I am going off of her crying on Mashonda‘s shoulder in Episode 1. Waaaaaaaaaait!!! Did Olivia just called Emily out? She just said on National TV “No one knows who Emily is.” lmao!!! Didnt I say that already? hahahahahaha. At least I was Googleable before this show.

Wow…. soooo yes, Somaya does need practice, but Chrissy got to Jim. OUCH!!!! Ummmm Somaya, honey… yes, Jim is pussy whooped!

Okay, so how did Somaya get in contact with Emily? This is soooo set up. I’m so lost. We couldn’t find her on Google but you can find her to talk to her over dinner? Ummmmm…yeh, Did I mention that even in my not knowing her personally… I don’t care too much for Emily. Liiiiiiiike, did Emily just really say that Somaya’s brand isn’t hot? And had the nerve to say she is keeping it real? Emily didn’t tell Somaya that while it was just the two of them. And yeh, the manager is dumb as shit, with Olivia sitting there, why would you talk shit about Jim? I cant believe he said that Jim only gets paid $10k a year. LMAO!!!!! Well, at least all of that $10k g on a gym membership. WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIT! Did Chrissy just call the manager Tattoo from Fantasy Island?!!! LMAO!!! I am gonna pee on myself.

HAHAHAHAH Chrissy just said that “the only thing you would have had to stop her from doing is bleeding.: Maurice is so funny.  But BABY!!!!! Next week!

Next Week:  So, apparently the fight between all of these bitches is enough to survive two episodes. And HONEY!!!!!! I just cant wait to see Jim Jones pull Maurice out in the street and embarrass a grown ass man on National TV. But….isnt this enough for Maurice to press charges? Just wondering. But yeh… I think I have my homegirl Eboni hooked on this show now…….so sad she has to go back to Chicago and wont be here to critique with me next week. At least it is getting juicy! And Scene!!!!

Love and Hip Hop: Basketball Jump-offs Set To Music

In Take 2: Film/TV Reviews on 22 March 2011 at 10:31 am

Episode 1: Should’ve Called It Rap

        So, after watching last week’s premiere episode, I quickly came to the conclusion that this was merely Basketball Wives set to music. Can’t you see it. Mashonda is just a hip hop version of Shaunie O’Neal, Fabolous‘ woman is nothing more than a weaker version of Jennifer, and Olivia is Royce (no offense), just meaning that they are the only one’s who have something going for themselves besides being known as a male star’s arm trophy. Somaya is Tammy for lack of character equivalency, and the only thing that Chrissy has over Gloria and Evelyn is that she has her man and he claims her in public…lmao! Put a couple of bitches, hoes, and an 808 drop in there and you’ve got yourself an episode of Love & Hip Hop.

        Now don’t get me wrong, I’m sure these are struggles that are very hard to go through. But fuck me if I’m wrong, you put your business on NATIONAL television for the world to see, knowing that you would get judged. Well, all rise. The Honorable 2Deep presiding. LMAO! Whatever you THOUGHT was going to come from letting cameras in your life wasnt going to end at the cashing of checks.

       And was I the only one who can’t listen to Fab’s music any more after seeing how he treats his woman? Girl.. whatever your name is… move on. The nigger can’t spell fabulous correctly any way. You don’t want your baby growing up illiterate like his dumb ass daddy, do you? *ugh* I just got a bad taste in my mouth after writing that recap. But… the DVR is set to record just in case I don’t make it back home in time after this production meeting.  So….

Take 2 in 5, 4, 3, 2, 2, 2, #MyMicSoundsNice ….Check 1

        Okay, judging by this intro…Chrissy is insecure. Has she not figured out that she is the ugly bitch in her crew? Not saying that she is ugly, because who am I to judge….but out of her crew…she’s the ugly bitch. Of course, I would be angry too.

        OUCH!!!! Is her girl calling Olivia out?! Wait… is that Fabolous’ girl snitching on someone else’s relationship? Soooo wow!!!! Olivia just got busted on NATIONAL TV for lying about still dating football player Revis….smh!!!!But dont you just HATE it when bitches who don’t have things going on straight in their own house they have to jump out and act all hard. I mean, where is this bitch’s voice when Fab is walking the red carpet without her ass? Why is she not moving out of the house that she and Fab live in and be on her own? Why not check Fab while you’re crying on Mashonda‘s shoulder and then acting hard for this football player just because you buy his clothes. Damn, I can’t even remember her name. Let me Google “Fab’s bitch” and see what comes up…..shit, nothing. See what I mean. And judging by  the RUMORS circulating the net, you aint the woman with the ring on her hand in all of Fab’s new pics…..see how you should learn how to prioritize your mess!

        Damn! Okay… I know I hate to talk about someone’s mother…. but doesn’t Mama Jones look Like Frankie? Man down!!! Okay, well at least those are her teeth….I think. Wait! Chrissy doesn’t have money or access to Jim, Jimmy, or Jumbo’s money…hahahah. Funny. So she is already telling us that she is not taking care of her own finances. Jim could pull a Fab and ignore you and what will you do then?  Ugh…. watching this relationship between Mama Jones and Chrissy is making me uncomfortable. *ugh!

        Okay… Somaya turned down the panty shot….but then she got into a swimsuit and hot pants up her ass. Okay boo… bullet wounds and big booties are in this season, havent you heard? Dudes don’t care about your bullet wound…lol. Okay, I shouldnt joke like that. But I am happy that she stuck to her guns. Even though there are pics on the net that show way more than what she chose to show because the cameras are around. I’m lost. Is she a reformed hoe now? Is there a reformed pimp in heaven getting his wings? I love how video hoes get self-esteem when shit is being recorded. Girl, you better go make that money and not let that money make you!

        HOLD UP!!! Why is Chrissy making comments on Somaya’s music. Why are you letting this bitch up in your business, Jim? As a person just watching the show… Chrissy talks that shit in places where she can get away with shit.. I bet you $50 she wont pull that get buck shit in D.C. or Montgomery, Alabama. I know 5 chicks off the top of my head who would shut that trick down. I hate short bitches with Napolean complexes who talk all this mess.Speaking of mess… this autotuned bullshit of Somaya’s….smh. Okay, maybe I need to hear the full song but didn’t 50 already do a song about riding a bus and will his girl be there for him? Out of all the things that happen in this world, why are we repeating motifs?

         Okay.. so who with money drinks champagne in plastic cups, out the trunk of a Benz, in front of a house? Yes, that screams classy as a motherfucker right there!!!! So it is official, she is just the Alcoholic Anonymous version of Frankie. Got it! Glad that was clarified. Is that a full pig? I think my inner Muslim just told me not to eat pig ever again.

***Sidebar: Who is that fine ass buff dude at Jim’s Birthday party?!

        Aww… Jim Jones is dropping tears!!!! OKAY! HE GETS MAD PROPS!!! I just LOVE how Jim Jones shows active affection for Chrissy and her crazy ass! lol. THAT is a man… *standing ovation* Man…see groupies…see how sexy he just got by showing his woman love and letting her in and letting the world know how much he loves her. Wait.. did this girl’s dress almost catch on fire…lol. That was hilarious.  Okay. Jim gets mad love from me on this episode. That is all I have to say about that.

       Conclusion: Chrissy needs to get slapped, Olivia needs to stop lying on professional dick, Fab’s secret bitch needs a life, and Somaya needs to go back to Cali. Okay… that is all. I will be watching again next week. This show is like a train wreck…or Bobbie Christina without adult supervision, you know you’re suppose to help but that aint your kid…lmao!

Love and Hip Hop ~ Should’ve Called It Rap

In Take 2: Film/TV Reviews on 15 March 2011 at 12:38 am

        Okay… so for weeks I have seen commercials for Love & Hip Hop and I never really paid attention. But something told me that i needed to set the DVR right now and get ready! I’m not gonna even try to speculate as to what I will see…. I’m just prepared for some coonery. That is all. 

        P.S. Judging by the commercial, they shouldnt have called this Hip Hop…it should have been named merely Love & Rap. One day people will stop confusing the two. I am actually in my feelings about the foolishness I see in the previews. That is all.

Take 2 in 5, 4, 3, 2, 2, 2, My Mic Sounds Nice!

        Damn… I was on the phone with  my production company diva and straight up missed the beginning of the show, so now I have to watch something else while the DVR records so I can give you my first response to the show. tick tock tick tock

Take 2, Literally!!!!

        Just the intro of all of these videos full of hoes, and cameos by the tricks of Flavor of Love already make me hate this show. I mean, really….arent we already Famous Male Jump-off-ed out? This is nothing more than Basketball Wives set to music. Yes, we get it….famous black males who represent an urban background have NO respect , whatsoever, for the black females in their life. We’ve seen it before; Housewives of Atlanta, Basketball Wives, The Game, Flavor of Love, I Love New York, BET, UPN, the evening news…..how many shows can we possibly have before the world gets that HOUSTON, we have a problem. Didnt Jim Jones kill enough people with the kool-aid once before….I’m not drinking it this time. I’m calling a spade a spade and a nigger a nigger… this is foolishness!  And who is this Quiet Storm sounding chick that is doing the intro? Ugh! Okay… Lord….. please don’t cause me to treat this like Let’s Stay Together.

        Okay, soooooo Chrissy just said that she has only known Olivia for a few weeks? Umm… set up for a reality show is a tad bit too obvious with that conversation. And then she had enough nerve to say thats “my homie”….bitch, you deserve to have troubles because you get friends too quickly. So, Chrissy is supposedly with Jim Jones…..never heard of her.

        Okay, so Emily is Fabolous‘ girlfriend and baby’s mother…..and you just admitted that your man doesn’t claim you? Ummm…. yeh. I’m so confused. I know there is an image to uphold but baby a real man doesn’t give a damn about the world when it is him and his girl/family. Even Jay-Z once said “give my heart to a woman, never happen….” *in my Chris Brown voice* Look at me now…lol. Okay, not if the rumors of him and B divorcing… but you catch my drift. A man will lay down the game for the person he really loves.

        And why is Chrissy in the club with that tacky red ass bra on?!! And let your man do his job bitch. You’ve been there for 6 years… you aint going anywhere… you are too comfortable. okay, I shouldnt have called her a bitch… but bitch, please. You know that is how your man makes his money…so leave him alone.

        Okay… who is this rapper, Somaya?  Has anyone heard of her? Or is this a promotion for her. If that snippet is what we have to look forward too, then she better share a studio apartment with Olivia…. WAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT! Is this girl sleeping in a bed in a hole in the fucking ceiling?! LMAO!!!! I was so just joking when I typed that line and then I looked up! lmao!!!!! Oh hell… baby!….lol AAAAAAAnd she plays the violin? Ummm… did she just say Jim was scoping her out? Chrissy is gonna put her foot all up in that ass!!!

Olivia is stirring up some shit with Emily & Fabolous. LMAO!!! Chrissy said “chewing with the next one…lol.

        OH SHIT… Mashonda…..*leans in* She actually looks beautiful. I mean, I would have put a little more Olive Oil to cut down on that frizz. And I mean… really…Emily showing this side of her relationship with Fab actually makes him look bad. Do guys know that them saying they have a girl brings them more attention and that the thirsty bitches come up out of the woodwork even harder!!! UGH!!!! I’m not even a Fabo fan like that but now all he’s gonna get are hoodrats. All of the real women are looking at him like another dog right now… I can put money on it. Nigga, it is OKAY to have a woman who you claim. It actually makes you look like a man, don’t turn Emily into Cassie! She deserves to walk the red carpet with you and not just the bitch that creeps in your bedroom after hours!

NOW DO YOU SEE WHY I SAID THEY SHOULD CALL THIS RAP AND NOT HIP HOP!!!! There is isnt conscience!

        Ummmm did she (Chrissy) just admit to drinking and driving? I mean she was already talking and driving at the same time…laws being broken all over the place.

        WTF is Somaya doing in this onesie!!! LMAO!!! Chrissy said she thought it had “snaps in the crotch” lmao!!! This girl needs a stylist. Hey, maybe Emily can help her since her man isn’t claiming her. WHat? I’m just repeating fact.

       I mean, really…really…you (Chrissy) will get into Jimmy’s money like that because you are insecure!!!! I don’t care… at least Jim called you and told you that he was in the studio w/ Somaya. Hell… ask Emily, I bet you Fab doesn’t do that…. *UGH~

        Okay….show ended, too much to recap on what the previews allude to for the rest of the season, but they sparked my attention and I shall be watching. THANK YOU GHETTO RICH PEOPLE!!!! I can tell that Chrissy is going to get on my fucking nerves the most. I guess that she doesn’t know that now people may not want to fuck with Jim because she is a loose cannon… again…*ugh*

Sincerely,

200 Men Said….Let a Man be a Man

In 200 Men Said.... on 8 March 2011 at 12:02 am

        So, recently I wrote 2 blogs An Independent Woman’s Place [<~Click Here] and [Click Here~>] Deuces Dos & Donts, and the answers that I got back from them had a lot in common; Let the Man be a Man. WTF!? I have no clue what that means. I am just being honest. People say it all the time, but is there a Wikipedia page about letting a man be a man? Is it different in different cultures? Should the woman go by her culture or learn what that means in her man’s culture? Can you upgrade it? Find it on Amazon? WHAT!!!? You can’t come at me all ambiguous and what not. Didnt you tell me that one of the things that women need to do is to communicate EXACTLY what we are thinking because you can’t read our minds? Guess what…this doesn’t mean what you think it means. So, what does it REALLY mean to “let a man be a man”?

        Okay…I’m a big girl, I can admit when I need help. So, I needed help trying to figure out what this meant. Because in all honesty, in woman code, this translates to “Shut up woman and fix me some food”. You might as well call me a bitch and put me in geisha make-up. The phrase almost implies that a woman has the power to stop you from being a man, which then suggests the question of “why should I be with you if I can stop you from being a man?”. No, don’t shoot the messenger… I’m just saying…this phrase is looking a little swiss cheese-ish to me.

        Well, when I hear it I speculate that he means that he needs to be in control at that moment, or that I have stepped on his manhood a little too much. That is all I can do….. speculate. But… I also think that there are several different ways to let a man be a man, and each one is a sign of how much of a man the woman is dealing with. For instance, my godmother has this way of politely saying my godfather’s name that will shut the sentence down and change the topic. She was letting him be the man, in my opinion, but not embarrassing him nor letting him embarrass himself. He still got to maintain his pride. I have never , and I mean NEVER seen her raise her voice at him. Now what goes on in the privacy of that bedroom when you hear her call his name politely down the hall….that is on them. I am sure they have had disagreements… I have never seen it. The one thing that I have caught by accident is when my dad left his wallet at home after she reminded him to get it, he didn’t. So we’re at the restaurant and he is entertaining friends and family and the check comes. My mother knew what was about to happen, and I saw her playing around in her purse and then she slipped her credit card under the table and into his lap under his hand without missing a beat. THAT was letting my father remain a man so that he could place the card on the table and pay the bill. But, in letting him be a man, she had to be a woman to see what was needed and assist him. I have a STRONG feeling that guys around my age don’t see that as the definition of Letting a Man be a Man. So I asked them.

I asked my 200 Men…..

On my last question I saw pretty much the same response. What does “let the man be the man” mean to you and what should a woman do, or not do, to let the “man be the man”? 

        And since I never read the comments until I come back through to edit the formatting of the post…. I have no clue what you are about to read. The 200 Men Said….

  • Danny P: All of this isn’t this complicated. When it’s right, the two involved in the relationship are who they are and the couple is still one. All this [means is] let [it] be [the way in] which [it] is… if [letting] the person be who they are is [them being a ] cheating fool or something… well uh duh
  • Allen Ozark:   ??? not sure.
  •  Nigi “Pistol Star” Pu Yi: Its means, let the man think he’s in control even if you’re in control. Also, all duties that are designed for a man…let him do them even if you’re better. Eventually, if he’s a real man he’ll admit that you’re better at whatever and come to you for assistance, and rightfully so. [2Deep: This man never ceases to amaze me. But let him be in control even when he isnt…..isnt that lying? lol. Okay, Lie to my man. Check!]
  • DSMILEY1: Let the man be the man: in charge of houses chores like cutting the grass & washing the cars. Sometimes its good to switch out but [it] wouldn’t be the same
  • : !: it means if you have a Real Man, he leads the household in decisions..basically the King..but that doesn’t mean he is a tyrant. He should listen to advice from his wife and make good decisions. Basically, the way the Bible portrays it.
  • Lateef25:  maybe not nag so much about what you want. just tell him in a nice way or let it go
  • Kycajrome L: I believe [it] comes from the Old school archetype of when the Man was the provider and fixer of everything in the household…depending how a man was raised some still hold those values ,times are a little diff, but old or new ,Respect is what a MAN wants
  • on the rocks…: that statement is self explanatory.far be it for a man to explain what it is to be a man.especially to woman these days. they seem to have their own blueprint for us.lol ..check every 3rd female profile and it’ll have a laundry list of what a “REAL” man is

        Now you all know that I wasnt going to just STOP at some of these answers. So some side conversations came from them and they went a little something like this:

  • Vince V: I think that those answers are coming from men who feel insecure about their position in the household and basically wants the woman to run everything through him and let him have the final say so in what goes on in their relationship. when in my opinion a secure man who has good communication with his partner would trust his woman to be able to act as an extension of him to make good decisions with both his and her best interest at heart , but communication being the key. [2Deep: I simply love this answer…. he can stay…lmao]
  • Me: Sooooooooooo I noticed you said that a “woman to be able to act as an extension of him” What does that mean? And why cant it be the other way around? Just playing devil’s advocate here
  • Vince V: ok miss devil’s advocate….lol   Traditionally the man would always be considered the head of the household because he was the bread-winner. but as times have changed and women have become less dependent on men; whether it be cause of equality between men and women, or financial responsibilities within a relationship. the level of the playing field has evened out, and either one could be considered the “head”. but sticking with tradition, even though the field is even, with the male being the head; any actions performed by the woman would be considered “okayed” by the man, to anyone outside that relationship. which would mean she was just doing it for him cause he cant get to it. Now it can work the other way around but then that would not be a traditional type relationship, plus then you might  have a man with a really hurt ego about holding up the appearance of being the man of the house.
  • Me: Soooooooo what is a woman not suppose to do without her man’s permission?
  • Vince V: have sex with someone else….j/k lol   a woman doesn’t need her man’s permission to do anything….but a woman or a man in a good relationship keeps open lines of communication with each other. especially when decisions that are to be made affect one another.
  • Me: Okay….so to let a man be a man is to keep an open line of communication with him. That’s it? ( I swear you’re gonna get sick of me…lol) But I am trying to make sure that I understand before I post it.
  • Vince V: no, to let a man be a man is to let him run everything and make all the decisions and don’t question the things that he does. but i would personally like having the input of my woman in every decision that i make for us, and vice versa .
  • Me: How is THAT being a man?!!! That sounds like a dictatorship!!!!! OH I SWEAR YALL WILL BE SINGLE FOR LIFE WITH THAT ATTITUDE!!! lmao
  • that is just the way life has traditionally put men with women. but like i said, as for me ,i like having the input of my woman cause i feel like it keeps us closer and more in touch with each other
  • Me: Gotcha! No prob….. I thought that you had great insight… My readers should hear it. Oh.. wait.. my fault. I didn’t let the man be the man. *submits* am I allowed to put your comment on my page? lmao!

        Vince V was my favorite response, but I simply had to post my comments from Chub L. He keeps me cracking up and yet he still knows when to be serious. So here are his responses:

  • Chub L: Let the man be the man – let him get that door etc… Let him do for you what you shouldn’t have to do for yourself as his queen.
  • Me: That was your answer…. so what am I not suppose to do for myself as his queen?
  • Chub L:In the world that we live in today – It’s basically everybody for themselves, but my queen shouldn’t have to get her own door, ever. Everything else is pretty much up for grabs. I don’t have a problem with a woman’s independence at all. Whatever my independent queen will allow me to do for her is gravy. No qualms here. I’m open-minded – we can get the darn door for each other.
  • Me: So, it really is that important to a man to feel needed in a relationship? But is it just with tangible things? Does a man ever feel the need to be needed emotionally? Meaning, if she doesn’t want you to get the door but needs you to hold her every night… would you feel like less of a man?
  • Chub L: Being emotionally needed is even more of a necessity. The Queen needs for her king to not only be her rock while she’s awake -but to rock her to sleep and all the more rock her while she’s asleep. It is for the good of both. If my queen is kept happy then hence I will also be kept happy.
  • So, then… why do you think so much emphasis is placed on a man doing tangible things versus him being there for her in the emotional times?
  • Chub L : I haven’t got a clue – I can only speak for me – I do both. Many swear that what one does or demonstrates declares what they feel. That is true BS – we as human beings still need to hear and feel what mere tangible things can never satisfy.

        Soooooooo are you still as confused as I am? I don’t want to be alone, so don’t leave me out here alone on Confusion Island. I mean, I get it…. but I don’t get it. So, as long as I allow my man to do “things” for me, then he feels like a man and all is gravy. So, I shouldnt have to touch a door in the presence of a man, pull out a chair, or cut my grass ( I don’t know, so I am halfway there), and let him make all of the decisions. I have a feeling that there is a gray area here that is in need of a dye job. It can’t be that friggin simple. So if I live by these few rules I am allowing my man to be a man? SWEET!

        Okay, all jokes aside. I think it all boils down to respect. Do I respect my man to hear him out when he verbalizes his needs? Do I validate him when needed? Does he have an equal part in this relationship? I think THAT is where his concerns lay. Anything else is a dictatorship and it isnt going to happen over here. Respect for Respect should be the basis on which this blog should be concluded to. And Scene.

200 Men Said….An Independent Woman’s Place

In 200 Men Said.... on 22 February 2011 at 12:02 am

        So, while on Twitter I asked some of my female followers to hit me up with questions that they wanted my 200 men to answer and I have several questions to ask until I die…lol. But one was in reference to the place of an independent woman in a relationship. Other questions trickled from that one question, but this post will be specifically about an independent woman in her relationship.

*Cues Ne-Yo‘s Miss Independent* or read yesterday’s blog Lyrically Speaking:Lyfe Jennings~Hero [<~Click to Read]

        Often times we hear how you have to be an independent woman, learn to stand on your own two feet, don’t rely on a man because all men are dogs yadda, yadda, yadda. Then on the flip side, we must learn how to Act Like a Woman, Think Like a Man. How can I when no one is wanting to give up the man code? lol. Just kidding. But in all seriousness…. the world, right on down to the Bible thumpers, would have you believing that in order to be in a committed relationship you must relinquish your feminine family jewels and trade them in for a hot stove, bare feet and Kate plus 8. How 50’s is that. My last name is NOT Stepford. So, are we allowing the world to tell females everywhere that they cannot excel in order to make a man’s ego feel at ease just to have a relationship? I hope not, because then I am going lesbian.

        There has to be a balance, right? There has to be a time where a woman can handle business like a strong and independent woman during the day and be able to submit to her man. Notice I said submit.. not bow down to, not stand behind, not be belittled by. I left my father’s house because I was grown… I BE DAMNED if I go into another man’s house and feel as if I can’t be the strong person that MY FATHER raised me to be in opposition of many of these knuckle heads. So, you actually have the good fathers to blame…lol. And yes, I know I am exaggerating, but if the exaggeration can be handled then everything else will be cleared up in its path as well.

So…. 200 Men were asked:

 Often times black women are made to feel bad for being independent women. Do you think that there is a place for an independent woman in a relationship w/ a man or does she have to change? 

        Ladies, back away from anything that has breath and high levels of testosterone. TRUST ME on this one. I havent even read the comments yet, I never read them before I write my part, so I have no clue what is going to be said.

My men responded with:

  • DSMILEY1: I like independent women because it makes us grow faster & makes life easier on choices we make together
  • Chub L: There is nothing wrong with being independent, but also allow a real man to be the man. Hey it’s truly a new day in our wonderful society for different levels off independence, but chivalry does not have to die in order for independence to live.
  • Kycajrome L: I almost want to say this is a silly question but, I know better, LOL so i’ll say if  [you’re] independent you won’t feel bad about being you (with out an attitude)…if some else can’t handle it….
  • MIAMI’S SON IS BACK !!!:  are u serious !! you took the time to ask me that dumb ass question!! but its called self-esteem, meaning the esteem of ones self. so if you have to ask that question, then your not independent !!!! your a poor excuse of a person [2Deep: I had to rip him a new one separately. Funny how people assume that all of these questions are personally mine. I have women sending me questions on Twitter, and even if someone asks, it could be for research purposes and it doesn’t make them dumb.. like this ass! That’s why I am not going to correct his grammar errors. Because if you’re going to call someone else dumb you might want to know how to use “you’re”…lmao!]
  • !: Never a problem for an independent woman being in a relationship but when it comes to the household, she needs to realize the man is the head of household, it’s a reason God set it that way…just like in all other species. You [can’t] have 2 leaders.
  • dorrance: yes but u have 2 make time for each other if not then, no, it wont work
  • DJ Urban Cowboy: I don’t think any [man] wants a woman who can’t support herself. There is little room to flaunt or boast your independence. If  [you’re] so independent that you have to boast about it, then you don’t need your man.
  • Marcel: If a woman would allow herself to be made to feel in such a manner because of her independence then that is not at all a woman. A woman knows what its is in which she desires, wants and deserves.
  • Code Name Bigsexy: THERE IS ROOM.BUT I THINK THE WOMAN STILL HAS TO LET THE MAN BE THE MAN
  • Vince V: Yes there is a place for her. as long as she is not always throwing it up in the mans face like she doesnt need him for anything and vice versa. because that would be a lie. to make a “relationship” work it takes 2 people, being there for each other mentally, physically, emotionally, and financially. and no neither person should have to change period unless they want to for some reason. i embrace the independent black women. i think that Ne-Yo, Jamie Foxx, and Fabolous state it best in Ne-Yo’s “Independent Remix”

 My FAVORITE ANSWER CAME FROM:

  • CHRIST- O: I DONT WANT A WOMAN THAT CANT STAND ON HER OWN. AN INDEPENDENT WOMAN HAS A GLOW ABOUT HER THATS WHY SHE STANDS OUT IN A CROWD. TWO INDEPENDENT PPL MAKE A GREAT COUPLE.

Get your glow on ladies!!!

Okay… so I lied.. I ended up reading this one as I was going back and editing. I love this one too:

  • Prestige “The One And Only”: She never has to change, a real woman will never have to compromise who she is naturally. Independent, stubborn, opinionated…is sexy and a black woman will and should remain such while still being able to allow a man to play his role as a provider.

(This comment sparked another question that will come up in a future blog. [Will post link Here])

        And of course, when a response catches my attention, I have to jump in and get clarification. So I began a conversation below:

  • Mr. Mayor**DARKSTARZ INC PREZ**: I know I’m late on this one but I had to really think on it… I don’t think there is anything wrong with an independent woman in or out of a relationship but I don’t think some woman should get into a relationship if they just feel like they don’t want someone they can lean on when they need too. Some women take it to a certain level that can sometimes make their man or anybody feel unnecessary…. Just for example, sometimes the simplest thing like allowing a man to open a door for them… I have experienced women who actually give off an attitude when I have tried to do things like that… And I’m like “Wow, you don’t even want your door opened? That makes you less independent?” And I just think women go overboard with the “Independent Woman” thing.
  •  Me: How are they going overboard?
  • Mr. Mayor**DARKSTARZ INC PREZ**: They are going overboard because they are starting to take men being polite and chivalrous as trying to impede on their independence. 
  • Me: Oh okay, so how does it make you feel when a woman does that? And how can she be independent and make her man feel validated at the same time?
  • Mr. Mayor**DARKSTARZ INC PREZ**: Everybody wants to feel needed by the person they are with and any real man would be impressed with a woman who can handle her own but if she makes him feel as though he is unnecessary that’s when it gets to be a problem… It’s the simple things… let him open a door, lift a box, yes a woman can do it for herself but a gentleman should never let her. I’m begging women in my life now to do their part in reviving and keeping chivalry alive.
  • Me:  So it makes you feel needed? And you like doing those things? Do you ever think to give her emotional support too? Or must it always be tangible things?
  • Mr. Mayor**DARKSTARZ INC PREZ**: I’m not in a relationship now… but when I was I was more than capable of giving emotional support… but try giving that to a woman who feels like she being babied if a man is just concerned about her. For example I may say “baby are you alright?” because I sense something is wrong with her… her response may be something like “don’t worry about me I’m gonna always be ok… So what am I here for if I don’t or can’t do anything for you?
  • So, That is a testament to the type of woman who you chose to be with… that is NOT an independent woman. That is a dysfunctional female…lmao!
  • Mr. Mayor**DARKSTARZ INC PREZ**: Well when they are addressed they identify themselves as independent woman… and if that the case I would hate to view every woman who came off  “overly independent” as “dysfunctional women” But I will if I have too…LOL Now on the other hand if you are implying that “independent women” as a whole have perfect balance we would have to agree to disagree and I would do so purely from my personal experiences.
  • Me: I disagree because a person who must announce does not or is not. You don’t go around on a daily basis shouting “I’m a Man!” So, if she feels she is truly independent people will tell her, but you will never hear her cast that title on herself. It is the imbalanced and dysfunctional females playing dress-up in a real woman’s clothing that feel the need to shout how independent that they are. Because, in all honesty, an independent woman can’t wait for a man… THE RIGHT MAN…to come along and compliment her strength. When she feels safe enough, she will hand him her entire load and gladly let him have it so that she can be power woman at the office and a catered woman at night. So again… we mustn’t let our experiences overshadow the facts of the matter. If I let my experiences with dudes overshadow the facts of what a man is supposed to be…..we wouldnt even be having this conversation. So I’ll continue to separate dogs from men if you promise to separate faux females in dress-up mode from independent women. Because Independent woman does not mean independent from the love and support of a man, it means she is independent from the stereotypes placed on her by association with her gender and excels in spite of barriers.  Capiche?
  • Mr. Mayor**DARKSTARZ INC PREZ**: Capiche! You have my word and trust I’m not saying that I don’t have hope that I will one day find a woman of that caliber I just can’t speak on what hasn’t happened… But my eyes, heart and mind are open the very possibility of that opportunity…
  • Me: Until then… you can’t say that you have come in contact with an independent woman then. You have come in contact with women who are trying to prove that they are independent and failing miserably. lol

         And then it hit me….. these guys are responding the way that they are because there are imposters out there wearing an Independent Woman’s clothes! Yes…. just as there are boys out there sporting a man’s attire, we have imposters on the woman’s side as well. So, the guys aren’t upset with a true independent woman, but rather her flunkie; her wanna be. This is completely understandable. And unfortunately, there is no way to show him what an independent woman is because much like good men, by the time the people who need to them they have stopped believing in their existence it is seeming too late because the indepedent women have given up.  But there is hope.. I know there is. Like I said above, if I havent let me viewpoint of a man change because of a few bad ones, I just ask that men not let their view of the independent woman be tainted because a few imposters just can’t get it right. Each person is an individual and independent of your past relationships and experiences…. this is my belief.

Sincerely,
