It aint' Kwame's line to draw. If he's got something to say drop the condescension and talk to the young breh like he's a man. Talk to him like you actually care...Otherwise you just doing it for clicks. You start yelling at folks, calling them out their name and shyt they're just gonna tune you out. But if you slow it down, and spell it out for them with the idea of promoting understanding then most times they take in some of what you said.
Kwame aint say nothing in this video that I haven’t heard from my pops or uncles when i was fukkin up as a youngin. Only a cac would have a problem with the delivery of the message.

There are no perfect messengers only perfect messages:ufdup:

It’s every responsible “Black” man’s job.

"Is this music putting you in a trance dumb ass boy?"

@Matt504 :dead:

You gotta wonder how a young man that just got in trouble for this exact same thing less than 90 days ago could look at that phone, see that it was on IG Live and THEN pull out the gun for the audience to see.

Either the brother is dealing with some type of brain damage or there's something else at play.

He could have packaged certain parts of the video in a different way. The whole "You a dumb ass nikka" shouldn't have been said. But he's not wrong. Ja already gave back 40 million. The league is lining up to hand down a lengthy suspension, so that's even more money gone. The people in his life are holding their tongue because he's the financier, but they need to sit him down and lay it out for him. You bout to sink the whole ship...
Nah he said it bluntly how it needs to be said. I’m sure ninja is not a foreign word and very much apart of his daily vocabulary.

I don't have a problem with what he said. Ja needs to be checked, but those were from your pops, and your uncles. Dudes who knew you personally, and what type of approach they needed to take in order for you to get your ass in gear. Kwame don't know Ja. He has no skin in the game so all he's doing is talkin. If you don't know someone you gotta move a little different. It's about getting their ear to deliver the greater message. Otherwise Ja gonna be like "TF is Kwame Brown" and keep it pushin.

Breh...I'm in agreement with you. This is what I'm saying...If you did something out of pocket, and I tried to call you on it, you'd be like "who the fukk is this nikka? :what:"...If I came at you a certain way you'd tune me right out and keep skipping down crash dummy lane. From an outside perspective I personally would take a certain tone to catch your ear, then when I had your attention I would turn up the volume on what I was trying to say. Everything can't be 0-100. Sometimes it takes a little patience to get through to people...Especially if you're not really fukking with them like that.

Case and point...Shannon Sharpe and other people have been saying the same thing on wax for over a month now. "YSL Morant"..."He ain't really like that"...etc, etc...But has he stopped?

At some point personal responsibility needs to be pushed. Who gives a shyt how someone is talking to you, are you fukking up? Are you in the wrong? Is your shyt not together? If so you need to decide whether you are going to continue to do dumb shyt or not.

This is not some at risk youth in some fukked up ghetto, this is a man from a middle class family that is now rich and famous. If he can not understand or wants to understand how his actions are fukking up his money, too bad.

Responsibility needs to be pushed by people in his circle. His parents. Siblings. Close friends. People impacted by his decision making. He's 23...He's a young man, who has a lot of growing up to do. If the grizzlies organization aren't getting to him. Teammates, Media, etc. Then a think piece of Kwame Brown ain't gonna do shyt either.

we can agree to disagree. I'm just not of the opinion that bull rushing people with your opinion is a way to get them to listen to you.

You keep dancing around the fact that this is a grown ass man that has been given chances for this shyt and more already. It is not the fukking responsibility of others to try to get him to act right, he is an adult. As soon as he was 18 he is responsible for his actions, whether he was raised properly or not.

You talk about not rushing people with your opinion but the NBA and the Grizzlies will. Media talking about him is not to help him change, but to talk about the story. Stop coddling men or even women. You inform a person where they are fukking up, how to correct it and what happens if they dont. That is it. No Kumbaya session, no intervention, no heart to hearts, no pleas, no begging. If you cant act in a way that is acceptable to the NBA so you can make millions then you get what you deserve.

Wow. This the type of stuff you gonna look back on when your opportunities run out or short and you tell yourself that you could’ve done this differently or should have just listened the first 10 times…


Youth is wasted on the young. Boy gonna wish he did things different soon!
