Powerful Thoughts 6.13 Let it go or Let her go?

Hey Kiddos, we are in the final stretch here, with two episodes to go before Aunt Mary and Zaddy Meth pick up the mantle and give us whatever Courtney Kemp has left to give in Power 2: Book of Ghost. But wait, before we do, lets send off my favorite white boy and yours, Thomas Patrick Egan Teresi in a right proper way – One befitting of all his cold ass outwear looks he served over the years. BUT, and its a Kardashian sized one, before we start what did Ghost say when Tommy came to share his final moments with him? Let it go? or Let HER go? Quite different outcomes here. Some eagle eared (is that a thing) viewers heard let HER go, while some hearing deficient viewers (HEY MYA HEY) watched with the captions on (NOT THIS TIME FOR ME) and read LET IT GO. Based upon the spoiler 50 gifted us with and some frantic ass posters shared, im thinking it was let HER go, but im not a losing attention seeker, so I wont be sharing what I think was said here, but hey….its out there is you want to spoiler a show you’ve spent 6.5 years watching. Back to Tommy….. We open the show seeing what happened to poor Uncle Benny – he’s compacted in the ambulance that Holly – and I was wondering why she was in the opening “PREVIOUSLY ON POWER” – suggested Tommy get to launder his money. He then goes to see his mother prompting me to write in my notes “SHUT THE FUCK UP KATE,” which I will find myself saying many times throughout this ep. Elisa Marie: unfortunately for us, this plot line is indicative of the corner the show painted Tommy in. I really dont care about her and as evidenced by her Aunt leaving her when she said she didnt want to be alone and the body guards that mysteriously disappeared after Vincent was killed, but Tommy was still on the loose, no one else does either. What’s interesting to me, is that, after all Tommy did to her, killing her father and her uncle, kidnapping her, subjecting her to Kate’s white girl braids, telling her the truth bout her frand Tariq, shit talking her bout her dad, for some reason, she frees him. Somebody gotta make that shit make sense to me because at current, it absolutely does not. And them bonding over their junky moms aint gonna do it. HE KILLED HER FATHER. PeriodT. Also, what aint gonna do it for me, is the structure of these final eps….how much more stress would you have felt for Tasha when Tommy rolled up on her with the truth about LaKeisha’s death if you didnt know that she lived to show up at Trust Attorney Elvin’s office. There was no benefit to that scene knowing she lived. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. And so what ends up happening to our boy after dropping Elisa Marie off? Im not really sure because the timeline is kinda effed up to me. However, I do know that he went to Truth to tell his bruddah he loved him and to possibly kill his killer, only to be stopped by a bloodied Ghost, which says to me, the killer has to be someone he cares about, cuz I doubt he would stop Tommy from killing Saxe or anyone other than Tasha or Tariq. His next stop was off to Kate’s, who again prompted me to write SHUT THE FUCK UP KATE. Telling your own flesh and blood who you just asked for an 8ball how they aint shit is some Trump level parenting (to his sons, not his lover Ivanka). I mean how much longer is that money gonna last, Kate? You will be looking up your son in LA in no time flat. The final shot of our boy, in that Rick Owens jogger, riding off in his blue bitch that was restored to greatness by his brother, left me dropping one lone gangsta tear. Myalogy Minutes: Does anyone other than my deaf ass need the captions to discover what TwoBit is saying at any given time? EM knows bout proof of life, but cant tell her buddy Tariq is a liar. Tommy in LA is a show I would def watch. At least we know Tariq wants his father to die at his hands loves his father enough to not sell him out to the Italians. Why would Aunt Bennie think a 17 yr old she never met would be capable of the things his rotten 17 yr old ass certainly is capable of? I mean we know Tariq, but she dont. And how she know the back door was left unlocked and everything else she confronted him with? Tommy goes to Truth during the campaign event and lo and behold, TRUTH DOES HAVE SECURITY! Wow, whodathunkit? WTF IS GOING ON WITH GHOSTS HAIRLINE? Ced the Entertainer is a hitta for the Italians. OKAY. Power: Revenge of Paz’s Funky Bubble Coat. Tariq and his reasons for wanting to kill Ghost are so fucking immature. He lied. SO FUCKING WHAT KID. You lie too. Kill the villain soliloquies…just shoot the mofo and stop telling them WHY you are killing them. Spotswood caught that capital L right to the eye. Speaking of Spotswood, why was he just walking round eating hohos and drinking strawberry quick? PROTECTIVE CUSTODY ANYONE? Courtney, nice throwback to Kill Bill dialog about EM coming to find Tommy when she grows up, like The Bride told Vivica’s kid…and by nice, i mean lazy. I be too lost at times, maybe I should watch Power Confidential, but only if Terrence J aint in them silky rayons everyweek. MINI SPOILER ALERT: Tommy was on the radio here in Chicago, over the weekend and said that the killers name starts with T – Tate, Tasha, Tariq. Whatchall think?

Powerful Thoughts 6.12 – Paz Be Still

Seriously Paz, be still. Stopping running all over town with a gun in your bag, in a big ass coat that gotta have you stankin, making ugly faces….shits unseemly, b. WHOA. After such a phenomenal mid season debut, we have this fucking stinker of an episode. I dont even know where or more importantly why to start this recap, but I should warn you, if you liked it, just gone and share this post and leave, cuz this aint for you. “Am I gonna get to go back to school””I am gonna kill Ghost!””Am I gonna get to go back to school”” “I am gonna kill Ghost!” “Am I gonna get to go back to school” “I am gonna kill Ghost!” “Am I gonna get to go back to school” “Someone killed ghost””So now do I get to go back to school”……and now you have experienced the entire show. Sadly, I dont have much else to add other than the following random thoughts, which really could be added to Myalogy Minutes, so let’s just get right to it. Myalogy Minutes: What is it with these Valdez women thinking they can show up to Tasha’s home? Be workin on my nerves with that shit. Thank goodness, USA DA or whatever his title is Goldenblatt said something bout taking down Saxe Trump, who apparently does whatever he wants without impunity. Paz needed a better hiding place for that gun with a young man and a demented man in her home. Titi’s nephew: DO YOU EVEN CARE THAT YOUR AUNT WAS MURDERED or do you just want to be able to go back to school? I think we got our answer. Paz, what was the point of ruining Angela’s reputation? Oh right, it was pointless…just like this episode. Um scuse me FBI man, shouldnt you be handing the file with Angie’s phone info on it to, um, I dont know, THE GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL and not the dead woman’s sister? One would think after multiple shootings at Truth, Jamie woulda got some metal detectors up in that camp. Detective Rosie Perez just knew when and where to roll up on Paz to deliver some bad news. Thats some good detectin! Paz ran straight to her sisters killer to ask him to kill her sisters killer. We love to see it. NYC aint got conceal and carry, they got conceal and reveal. I saw that gun out and exposed – ALOT. Thanks Team Power Writers for wasting our time watching Paz following Jamie around Truth. Just close the whole damn US Attorney’s office, since EVERYONE gets fired from there. All their cases should be overturned at this point. Seeing Detective Rosie Perez with that black eye just gives me joy – calm down, it wasnt a domestic injury, ladies. TRUST ATTORNEY ELVIN! So all this time, Paz been worried bout the money and we know where her kids mind has been and all of that, to turn down the money – bitch please. Why Tasha have that Michael Jackson jacket on? and OOOOOOOOOOOOOH Tasha, why you snitching on Tommy? Tommy done gave Paz a full body convulsion by movin out on her. Speaking of Tommy, I miss him. Where he at? 3 episodes and 5 suspects left….whatchall think?

Powerful Thoughts 6.11 – Dre Day

What’s up kiddos? First post of the year and decade! WHOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOO! Watch out for me….to get totally uninspired and stop writing again – lol, who am I kidding? Consistency is not my strong suit and let’s be honest, Im not nearly as effective as Dre as making the most out of a day, so enjoy this recap, as who knows when the next one is coming! Firstly, am I in the minority here when it comes to enjoying how it seems this season is gonna play out? Now when the ep first came on, I thought I was having an aneurysm or mayhaps the <redacted> I was <redact – hey wait, its legal now in Illinois! So continue, mayhaps the MARIJUANA I was smoking was too strong, cuz I was sitting there like, didnt I see all this before? Then EUREKA! They were replaying key points and mixing them with heretofore unseen footage to let us know how Ghost’s final day played out from the various suspects in his murder. Me likey! And wait, did I just say Ghost’s last day? They just threw that lil tidbit in there kinda nonchalantly, right? Almost like he MAY not be dead…..but we shall see in six eps, right? Now back to Dre and his day…..man the Army shoulda caught this nigga before Spotswood and Francis did, cuz he truly embodies the slogan “be all that you can be” – which was the Army’s slogan back in the day, a tidbit for my younger Myalogists. Now I feel great when Im up and out on a Saturday by noon, run one or two errands, pay a couple bills on line, order some food and back in by two. Just call me She-Ra out this bitch, but DRE? ANDRE? ANDRE COLEMAN? ANDRE MUTHFUCKING COLEMAN…nah….this man does more in one day than yall do in a two weeks. Join me on a rundown of his final day on Earth…. Started his day off singing the worse rendition of Rise N Shine to his daughter since Kylie’s version…Im sure Kris J is on the line to Fofty (spelling correct) for some form of royalties RET NAH. Has the requisite “Sin, lets just go to Africa” convo with his baby mama, who pretends to not know who she had a kid by. Goes to see Saxe and calls him a bitch ass nigga. Gets his entire network killed Gets shot Gets bitched out by baby mama Goes to his own mother’s church where she is the only person leaving at that exact moment and for some reason snatches her up by the shoulders like a raperman. Goes to Tasha’s to extort her “broke is broke ass” and threatens to burn her spot down. Meets Tariq for money, which Tasha got on the phone on Dre’s orders and asks for. Goes to Truth to extort Ghost. Goes to Councilman Larenz’s office to extort him, for new id’s for him and his chick. Gets arrested for Killing The Irishman, I mean the Serbian. Almost starts a prison fight. Gets sprung by Det. Rosie Perez Escapes federal custody Had a come to Jesus talk with his mother while getting a gun pulled on him, and subsequently pulling that same gun on her Went back to Tates for the ID’s and money Started driving into his future before his greed got the best of him and he turned around to go kill Ghost at Truth at Larenz’s request. Pulls up in time to hear Ghost shot and to run smack dab into Det. Perez. Cold cocks Det. Perez Stops at a gas station for knock off Funyuns and a stuffed animal at a joint not 39759387598759475 miles outside of NYC. Hears Ghost was killed via a gas station tv. Gets RE-ARRESTED Has another come to Jesus moment with his mother, baby mama and daughter Actually starts a PRISON FIGHT Gets put in solitary Got burned alive Had his song played over the ending credits of a show he was never intended to be on this long – shouts out to Rotimi. Now, tell me….wtf did yall do with the last 24 hours yall got? Im sure nothing near to what Dre accomplished with his. Myalogy Minutes: In my mind, Francis took a deal like his buddy Spotswood did and they are next door neighbors in sunny Arizona. Dre’s cattiness was off the meter this ep! Calling Saxe his rightful name: Bitch Ass Nigga Telling Tasha he would burn her spot down Telling Ghost to take the bass out his voice Telling Det. Rosie to hurry up with her lil papers If I was Tasha I woulda told that nigga to go head and burn this bitch to the ground…I got insurance! (lordT I hope she has insurance!) Why Ghost always need to be at the scene of the crime lurking like a god damn wavy haired ghoul? Speaking of Ghost…Planmaster J was in full effect this ep, even tho we only saw him a handful of time and thank God we didnt have to hear him tell anyone “So and so, I have a plan!” Up next seems to be Paz’s showcase….. whatchall think?

Powerful Thoughts 6.5

DOES THE DNC STAND FOR DUMB NIGGA COMMITTEE? Im sorry, I just dont understand this storyline. Aside from Ramona wanting to fuck Ghost, there is absolutely NO reason for anyone to want him around. And at this point he even knows he shouldnt be around. Let’s run down a brief list of his sins. He is a: former dope boy former murder inmate club owner where multiple people have been shot/killed a constant presence in the US Attorney’s Office There is literally no campaign in the history of recorded campaigns that would want this nigga running amok, snatching mics like Suge and shouting out a project that literally NO ONE CARES ABOUT except him. Ramona, go head and bust it open for a goon and go on about your bidness like Fancy did all them seasons ago. DOES SAXE STAND FOR SUCKS AT XTRA EVERYTHING?Okay, that acronym was a reach, but seriously, this nigga sucks at everything and Im truly confRused as to how this fool still has a job. Firstly, he’s meeting out in the street having a heated exchange with a CI, Dre. Nope nothing to see there…nothing wrong with that at all. Then he gets his ass chewed out by US Attorney Goldenblatt for that aborted hit on Ghost. Then he plants an inadmissible bug in Proctor’s (my poor dear sweet) Proctor’s home that would have NEVER stood up in court. I’m really starting to wonder why folks dont wear a wire when they talking to his dumb ass. Tommy shoulda let two bullets fly in Maria’s apartment, one for her, and one for Saxe…if he dont die by the end of this saga, its a trick to it. DOES TOMMY STAND FOR KILL EVERYTHING MOVING? This nigga here musta been on a steady diet of that hippity hop murder music, cuz our hero was handling bidness this week, doing the work that Ghost should have done long ago. There he is, honoring his woman by cutting Tasha off…even tho that came outta left field. There he is killing Maria instead of giving her money. (didnt ghost learn from Holly, money is not the way to get rid of someone.) And finally, putting a turtle sized hole in my heart, killing Proctor, even though he maybe shouldnt have done that, Im not really clear what game Proctor was playing, but no one can accuse Tommy of being a man of inaction. If it needs to be done…call Egan, Tommy Egan. Myalogy Minutes: So Afro Puff Tasha Jr. is double crossing Tariq. Lawd, Epiphany….no one wants to see you pop lock and drop it. Niggas shaking down a daycare….dats cold Why the FUCK would Ghost sit down and discuss anything with Dre. and how many times this season am I gonna have to ask that question. And now we know how Saxe gets the keychain back. E. Marie’s backpack is just chilling outside the bathroom door. #FOH Tariq is stealing from Tommy again? And allowing himself to get followed by Afro Puff Tasha Jr? Ghost got Tasha outchere returning clothes. Ya hate to see it. Proctor surely was comfortable discussing shit with his cousin knowing Saxe had a wire in his crib. #FOH2X Why does Tasha keep protecting her son from getting his ass whupped? Tasha, if you are gonna ask Tommy if he knew Tariq was selling drugs, how’s about letting him answer before you start rapid firing additional questions at him? MKAY? Tommy flipped on Tasha the way Melo flipped on LALA. Tasha’s new whateverthefuckhewillendupbeing Zig, moves weight according to Epiphany, but he handed her a bunch of bags to move. #FOH3X Tommy sure had a lot of time to let that chopper sing without anyone calling the police in a Tribeca penthouse. Someone please kill Tariq Also, 2 milli for Tariq Why the two biggest drug dealers in NYC aint got 2 million dollars on hand? Whatchall Think?

Powerful Thoughts 6.4

MYA’S NOTE: Happy Friday from a blogger that should have written and published on Monday! Let me let yall in on something….Im a tv junkie…and its just too much shit on on Sundays. 90 Day Fiancee, Succession, The Affair, The Gemstones and Power…dis tew merch! Now I know what you are saying…but Mya, Power comes on Sunday at Midnight…and you are correct, but Im often too <redacted> to be trusted to take notes, so this blog gets pushed back til I can re-watch and note take, which in this case happened to be Thursday, so shaddup and enjoy. FORGOT ABOUT DRE Question Myalogists: how many drops of pee leaked out when you doubled over in laughter upon seeing Jamie make that angry face and act like he was gonna kill dre with his monogrammed Mont Blanc pen? I mean really…no one is scared of you, my dude. And clearly no one is scared of Dre (which they should be) as this dude is welcomed right back into the belly of the beast. There he is, lurking while Jason is discussing his musical chairs of distros. Oh, there he is allowed to tail a “seasoned” law enforcement official to a witness’s home. Oh and there he is again, entrusted to ride to said witness’s home with his boss. And good golly Ms. Molly, this fool was actually standing up in Ghost’s office all alone. All these folks, truly have forgot about Dre and his duplicitous self serving nature. THE COURTSHIP OF TARIQ/RAINA AND JAZZ’S MOTHER What the fuck Tasha? Or more apropos, WHO THE FUCK, Tasha? Now im an active and due paying member of Momma Gotta Have A Life Too or MGHALT, but can you focus on your remaining kid, Ms. Green? Or maybe make sure your surviving twin is spending his days at Choate? Now Shawn, although a stupid ass choice, I get…you were trying to hurt your husband. Deliterious “Terry” Silver, was harder to get, but you were try to heal the hole in your heart by using the one between your legs, so you get a pass on that one as well. But Q? Quentin, Quincy or whatever the hell his name is, uh-uh, no way, forget it. This dude just walks off the street talmbout he heard there was gonna be a day care in this location and before you know it, you in your office licking champipple off his nipples? NO MAAM PAM. My spidey senses are tingling….who is this nigga? who sent him? why he here? As the wife of what was once “the biggest god damn drug dealer in NYC” you gotta be savvier than this. Thank God you told him to put his shirt back on and beat it….now take ya own advice. MOMMIES DEAREST WOW o WOW, the writers on this show sure have alot to stay bout mothers, dont they? Good, Bad, and Ugly they are all represented in spades this week. Good? Keisha going out to beat some little kid ass over Cash. Kate pulling Tommy’s stylish coattails about Keisha’s obvious limitations. BAD AND UGLY? Proctor’s ex wife getting caught on tape calling lil Elisa Marie everything but a child of God. Proctor’s ex wife getting high as fuck after learning she failed the state boards. Q’s baby momma choosing drugs over raising lil Sky. Tasha basically Tasha-ing every week. Myalogy Minutes: way to go scary Jason henchman talmbout how yall gotta meet tommy for the drop later that night. Im sure that info was helpful to absolutely no one except the one mofo looking for Tommy. This little shithead Tariq stealing from his family….no loyalty to anyone. And Tommy let him off waaaaaaaaay to easy. Tommy’s boy does look like an Easter Island statue. Tasha’s angry bounce “im here to handle bidness” walk gives me agita. Nice recall to Holly….she’s the one that suggested an ambulance for Tommy to move product, if Im not mistaken. Someone check on that for me. Ghost really tried to kill Tommy with a perfectly timed crash, a trope regularly used on this show. Question tho, Ghost…how were you gonna escape if the hit went well? Nice fakeout with Ghost donning his gloves before handing Maria the cash and by nice, I mean stupid. Ghost straight just bust up in Tasha’s spot talmbout trust. That nigga funny. How is Vincent the only one seen disciplining Tariq’s dumb ass….everyone on the show shoulda laid hands on that little bitch by now. Proctor really put the cables on his ex. Its almost like he knew she failed that test and just piled on with news of his (ghost?) engagement. Proctor straight Walter White’d his ex. Damn…. No way that keychain ends up back in Saxe’s hands….I’d love to see the writer make that happen. SPECIAL MENTION THAT DIDNT MAKE THE MAIN POINTS: GHOST ANGIE Yall know I hate her, so whatever to her and her little red dress, but the way I hollered when Ghost bragged to her that he didnt kill the witness and she replied ” YOU WILL” – Snaps for Angie! Next week, the return of Tommy and Ghost? Whatchall think?

Powerful Thoughts 6.2 and 6.3 – 21 Questions

In honor of Curtis Jackson’s directorial debut, I will co-opt his most (imo) bestest song and ask 21 questions about this declining show. How happy were we to hear the dulcet tones of Joe back where he belongs? How unhappy were we to see Rotimi’s unattractive billy goat gruff chin pubes? Why would Agent Donovan let Rotimi kick that gun away? HUH? WHY? Where is the “voice witness” against Ghost? Is Tariq, white boy and afro puff the new Ghost, Tommy and Tasha? How is Ghost getting money now? 100k every two weeks to Jason and Tasha’s hush money seems kinda steep for him. Ghost is totally gonna start fucking that DNC chick, right? and how long til the dark skinned girls start bitching bout how Ghost picked a light skin over tasha. Sorry ladies….this question was asked with love…. A bullet sandwich? WHO IS WRITING THIS SEASON? What type of politician would let Ghost even sweep up in his campaign, let alone take the stage with him? What type of keystone kops operation is law enforcement in NYC running? How the fuck they let: Dre’s safehouse location get compromised? Alicia Jimenez get kidnapped? Lala sit in the toilet with just a “out of order” sign on the door? How many ADA’s gotta die? CAN WE ALL JUST SAY: FUCK THE QCP? I dont even know what it is at this point. Is Tommy’s coat game ever gonna fall off? Why would Tasha know Tommy was still alive, if Ghost never told her? Lazy Writing. Why are they sharing all this adult news with Tariq? Ghost told Tariq bout his “uncle tommy” before he told his soon to be ex-wife? CMON . Tommy telling Tariq that he was trying to kill Ghost and he will give him a heads up before he kills him. How Ghost just rolled up on Jason’s HQ to see Tommy’s car shot up like he was posed to be there. Alderman Larenz passed out them gutshots to old boy didnt he? Tasha just causually mentioning to Paz how Angela’s benefits would be tied up, was just a twee to bit on the nose, right? If you were worried bout covering up a criminal conspiracy, would you go right to a person’s benefits? LAZY WRITING. Why would Tasha need to attend the whateverthefuck Ghost constantly asks her to attend? THEY NOT TOGETHER. Can we decide on a character arc for Lala? Either she’s the bout it gangsta moll or the chick scared everytime there is a knock at the door. There is no inbetween. With as lazy as the writing has gotten on this show (not to mention this blog), is there any hope for the Power Book 2 spinoff starring Auntie Mary? Whatchall think?

Powerful Thoughts 6.1 – Murderers

Remember how Ghost yelled at Dre, to GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO? Well that was me yelling at the tv when I heard young Trigger wailing over Joe’s smooth croon, cept I was yelling NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Im not gonna dwell on it, but can we start a gofundme for Joe to pay back fifty, cuz thats gotta be the reason the executive producer in petty had for changing out one of the few reasons to watch this dumbster fire of a show. And dont be stupid like Ghost, I know its dumpster. Lets get on with this, shall we? EVERYBODY HAAAAAAAAAAATES GHOST. Tommy hates Ghost. Tasha hates Ghost. Paz hates Ghost. Tariq hates Ghost. Keisha hates Ghost. Saxe hates Ghost. USADA Harry Goldenblatt will soon hate Ghost. Jason seemingly will hate Ghost. Dre hates Ghost. Councilman Tate hates Ghost. I hate Ghost. You hate Ghost. Ghost hates Ghost. COURTNEY KEMP IS A LIAR Okay if she’s not exactly a liar, she is guilty of misleading the fuck out of an unsuspecting public, as seen above in a screengrab of an interview she did with Deadline magazine at the conclusion of last season. Ol girl died approximately 30 seconds into the show, so while she wasnt technically dead at the end of season 5, she may have well been, unless she’s gonna appear as a ghost haunting Ghost, which is not beyond the pale of this show that had Kanan surviving a fire there is no way in hell he should have survived. Anything is bound to happen on this mofo. And listen, Im not mad she’s dead – I’ve been actively advocating for everyone on this show to die at one point or another and after Holly, Angie was number 2 on my death wish list. RIP Angie…who cares? THE WOMEN OF POWERSTER PLACE And then there were two. Tasha and Keisha. Alternately dumb and smart. OR should I have written Smart and Dumb? Tasha, comes to the smart conclusion that her love, Deliterious “Terry” Silver is dead at the hands of her for now husband. She smartly listens to this fool ass Ghost call Angie the woman he loves and somehow doesnt donkey kick his teeth down his throat. She follows up with smartly telling this fool she wants a divorce. Be like Tasha, Tasha is smart. On the other hand we have the dumb Keisha by Care Credit. Still dumbly (its a word for all intents and purposes of this blog) running up behind Tommy. Still dumbly doing his bidding. Dumbly accepting a gun that has a body on it. Dumbly putting it in her purse. Dumbly not getting rid of it asap. Dumbly letting her “son” almost get to the gun whilst awaiting waffles or pancakes or whatever he was waiting on her inflated ass to make him. Jesus, people. Don’t be like Keisha. Keisha is dumb. Myalogy Minutes: How dumb is Ghost gonna feel when he finds out Tommy is alive. Made that dumb sadface for no reason. Tommy, Crossroads? YOU FOOL. Get with your black voice coach for you to catch the beat and soul next time. How nice to see Keisha finally being a mother? Tariq how did this fool manage to get both his parents to give him time to do whatever the fuck it was he wanted to do, when he wasnt supposed to be in town anyfuckingway? Ghost and Tommy both need fighting lessons. Ghost stay outta that dead woman drawers please. Why didnt Tommy just tell his primeras that the shipment would be there that night? Poncho all dead for no good reason. Is USADA Harry Goldenblatt gonna be as annoying as all his predecessors? Showing up at Proctor’s daughter’s recital was a John Mak/Gregex P. Keaton/Ball Saxe type move. BARF. Whaddyall think?

Surviving R. Kelly – Episode 5 & 6 Thoughts

First, and Im unsure where to start, I want to say these two things. These last two episodes literally brought me to tears. One of my good girlfriends said her 18 year old daughter had to sleep in a chair in her room because she was so terrified over what she saw. Second, for the Kelly Apologists, the “thats my boy no matter what”, the women who can fix their mouths to look down or cast judgement on these girls/women, lets assume you can look past his predilection for young women, I honestly submit to you, there is something fundamentally wrong and broken inside of you, that you can look at someone that displays such animalistic cruelty towards others and still find someway to defend such a true terrorist in the black community. You must see something you relate to in a man that strips young women of their dignity and self worth – whether they have it for themselves or not- and I hope your soul is saved one day. On to my show thoughts in the order they occurred. How did I forget this thing sang at Whitney’s funeral. and what a spectacle of a funeral it was. Them fucking pastors standing up to co-sign and do their “yes gods” behind this fucking monster. The worst parts of the black church continue to disappoint. As they went thru the montage of his songs, I wrote in my notes: “RKelly’s bench is so deep.” His songs are literally the soundtrack to some of our lives. As Tarana said in the doc, throwing him away is throwing alot of our memories away and that can be difficult to reconcile. KITTY JONES, we need to talk. I have questions…that I wanna ask a 33 year old woman in the music industry. Most importantly, how did anything about his past escape you? How you aint know? Were you willfully ignorant or just ignorant. I cram to understand how a hip hop dj was unable to grasp just who she was fucking with. Also, Kitty – how does a fully functional adult go from adulting to watching someone starve her while eating. Walk me thru that journey. This man is STILL messing with the young lady from the sex tape? MY LORD. This girl had 14 yrs of innocence before she was stripped of her own free will forever. Kelz’s tv viewing habits, per Kitty, was restricted to Dance Moms. Those girls aint even teenagers. Stalking future prey, perhaps? Michelle Kramer, mother of Dominique Gardner, almost took me to the upper room. what strength to let her daughter go, knowing she couldnt stop her. Her daughter was grown, good and grown when she left to go be with him. a mother’s love is boundless. She had no idea where her baby was staying, but she found her. her hugging that child in the doorway while the girl wouldnt let the door close broke me. i prayed that girl showed up at 6. when she showed up and the hotel management told her the police had been called…..call the coroner. when Dominique called begging her to stay. them literally walking to the car like runaway slaves on the route to freedom. I couldnt breathe at that point. Why did Kelz have Dominique dressing like a little boy – to the point he made her wear fake moustaches -and what did he do to her in that state? NOTE: I stopped taking notes and just watched Ep 6, so I may miss some things. If you have anything to add, hit them comments. CLARY FAMILY, can yall pull up a seat next to Kitty, cuz I have questions for yall too? why yall attending Kelz concerts with your young daughters? why yall aint yank the fuck out ya daughters arm and keep her seated when he called her 17 year old ass to the stage? why yall aint immediately delete his number from her phone and block him from calling her? why yall aint ask yallselves and ya daughter who the fuck has R Kelly made a star aside from himself in over 30 industry years? why yall let the fact that LEGALLY he aint been found guilty of anything block the fact that morally you know that he has? Zimmerman aint legally guilty of murder, but yall gonna hire him to head your neighborhood watch? WTF? what the fuck could your daughter have threatened you with that this outcome aint worse? Yall sent one immature daughter to look out for another immature daughter. And even with all my questions, opinions and thoughts, yall still dont deserve this outcome. I pray your child is returned to you. The CPD, the most corrupt police department in these corrupt ass United States of Amerika, contains Kelly moles. COLOR ME SURPRISED. Oh Chancellor, dear sweet, overall wearing, socially conscious Chancellor…you are just a young black boy shaped by the worst parts and identities of our city. I pray that you will continue to grow into a man that strives to right the wrongs of your past. Why are Lenard and Joe Budden in this documentary? Asante McGee…you were enjoying a “normal” relationship with this thing, travelling back and forth between Chi and ATL, when all of a sudden you were told – by an assistant, not your loving boyfriend – to pack a bag cuz you were moving in with him and you just did it? And then when the abuse started you stayed, although this monster was not the man you fell in love with, by your own admission. He turned on a dime and you couldnt escape that? You couldnt go in your bed room but could enter the black room where all those horrid degrading things happen? Faith Rogers, dear sweet Faith. Spent only a few month with this thing before she knew it was wrong. She was only 19. She is the proof that being manipulated has no age nor face. We cannot

Surviving R. Kelly – Episode 3 & 4 Thoughts

Friday night brought about parts 3 & 4 of this harrowing tale. Here are my thoughts in the order they occurred. Andrea Kelly still confounds and confuzzles me about her being confounded and confuzzled. HOW didnt you know? HOW? He married Aaliyah and we all knew. This fool was actually administering lie detector tests to people. Jesus wept. Kels was attending a child’s basketball games. Its one thing to hunt where you live – KENWOOD – and MAY have had a plausible excuse as to why you were there, but how brazen of this monster to go to an Oak Park school to stalk his prey. Sparkle is inspiring ZERO sympathy from me at the 1/2way mark in episode 3. Im seeing alot of Kavanaugh tears. Lisa aborted their child because she was frightened it may be a girl who may grow up to be molested by her father. Horrifying. Andrea got pregnant AFTER the sex tape. Again, she knew. Funny how Kelz knew to run straight to church after bonding out of jail…..the black church is a whole nother blog SERIES that someone more knowledgeable will have to undertake. Shadow employee said they didnt think it was Kelz on the tape although they never saw it…..ignorance is bliss and a requirement for working for that monster. We are now at the top of ep 4 and Sparkle is still on my shit list. I wonder why Drea is still wearing that monsters name and dancing in cars chairjuking to his music while extolling her “baby daddy” even tho she sobbing all thru this documentary. It took 6yrs for that trial to start. Innocent people usually want speedy trials to clear their names. R. Kelly is a cheap bastard. 100 to Aaliyah. 100k for Carey to tell the “truth” whatever that is. This trash bag was fighting child porno allegations and child molester accusations and still scoping out victims AT THE COURTHOUSE where he was fighting those charges. The Trump Hubris of it all. 1/2 thru ep 4 Sparkle finally gets some goodwill from me by saying how she turned down money to do a public press conference clearing his name. Good for you. Ill soon learn you released a song at the conclusion of all this, so this goodwill is short lived. WTF SPARKLE’S NIECES PARENTS? WHAT IN THE ENTIRE FUCK? Listening to this elderly non black male juror talk bout how he didnt like the victims appearance – how they looked, how they dressed – tells you everything you need to know bout how the world views black girls. Jerhonda thought telling a child molestor she was a 16 year old virgin was gonna be a problem. He ended up taking her virginity from the back. OUCH. Come back tomorrow for the conclusion of this story which is nothing short of a nightmare and literally brought tears to my eyes.

Surviving R. Kelly – Ep.1 Thoughts

Last night a fearless team of women including, Dream Hampton, Jamilah Lemieux and Tarana Burke saw the fruits of the labor come to fruition in the form of the first two parts of a six part documentary called Surviving R. Kelly. Here’s some of my thoughts in no particular order. this may get me in a bit of hot water with a member of my homegirls crew, but where were these girls parents? 14 years old, travelling with a grown ass man? 17 and allowed to travel out of state with him? I know we all did things our parents didnt know about, but cmon. My old black mama saw me jump in the back of a car with someone SHE didnt know one day and cancelled the fuck out my junior prom…and THATS why I wasn’t there classmates….true story. Question: They handing out blue contacts at the County? Question: Do people that possibly wear blue contacts at the county think that liking young girls is a preference akin to liking hot crunchy curls over flaming hots? Monsters have teams. Dr. Mclin? #teamkelz Sparkle #teamkelz That crackish looking “tour manager” of his? #teamkelz I mean really, how does one sit up and laugh about forging documents that lead to a 15 year old girl marrying a sexual predator. Demetrius Smith, you are a disgrace. Where was Jim Derogatis? Not to take away from the aforementioned women, but Jim has been in the trenches in this story for a long assed time as well. His reporting lead to the initial charges being brought against Kelz. This man was Trump before Trump. Hiding his heinous misdeeds in plain sight so no one would say anything and for the longest time we didn’t. FULL DISCLOSURE: I honestly had to stop myself from humming a couple times. This muthafucka paid Aaliyah’s family $100 to not pursue legal action and more importantly, THEY ACCEPTED IT. Again, Im left asking, WHERE WERE THE PARENTS? How did Andrea Kelly, a self proclaimed Chitown girl, not know who RKelly was? Sex with this diseased monster lead to a beautiful 17 year old GIRL almost being paralyzed for life due to contracting Guillain-Barré after catching mononucleosis from his dirty ass. “You are not alone” was about a child he raped losing his child. Sparkle bout to catch this whole bullet point with that lop sided bun and uneven bangs on her empty ass head. You KNEW. You knew. He tried to control you. You were old enough to know his history and you took a 12 yr old around him. You couldn’t spend the night at homes where young men were present and you took a child around a child molester. I hope that wonder of that one hit was worth it. That’s it for now. See yall Ep 3 and 4.
