JAMES BROWN STORY.

Often at Club 15 in Macon, Georgia, Brown would get into brawls with other men, often over women. He went after soul singer Joe Tex after Tex did a performance making fun of Brown’s cape act. In the melee, seven people got shot, but the injured parties were given $100 each and told not to create any more trouble. Money!

Bobby Brown on Janet Jackson:

Bobby Brown had always had a crush on Janet Jackson. During an interview with BET's Donnie Simpson, he finally got a chance to let her know how he felt. He had been contemplating whether he should just put it out there or hold back. He decided to do it! When Donnie asked him about his love life, without hesitating, he said, "I'm in love with Janet Jackson."

Shortly after, Janet called according to Bobby. Almost instantly, he and Janet started dating. For their first date they met at Haagen Daaz in L.A.

He adds: I really fell for her. They dated (discreetly) for a while. They saw each other and talked on the phone frequently.

The way their relationship ended broke his heart. "I was telling her that I loved her and wanted her to leave the guy she was with at the time (Rene). "She told me she couldn't and that her family wouldn't allow her to be with a black man.


According to Rick James: dikk Clark threw this great party after the American Music Awards. My mom was there with me, proud as she could be. Prince was also there. My mother asked him for an autograph and he actually walked away. After I heard about it, I went off. I was going to kick his little ass.

When I found him, I started to get in his ass. His manager asked what was wrong. I told him the little motherf**ker had insulted my mother. He brought Prince over to apologize like the little b**ch he is. He said, "I'm sorry" to my mother and tried to apologize to me but I didn't want to hear it.




Rick James on Anita Baker:

In the past, we reported Rick James' derogatory comments towards Anita Baker. Here are additional comments.

According to Rick James: JoJo of the Mary Jane Girls married this Buffalo trick named Robert Thunderbird who was always hanging around trying to get his slimy hands on any of the girls. With JoJo being the homeliest, she became weak for him. The day they got married, I could see he was after the fame and the money.

JoJo's maid of honor was Anita Baker. Anita is one of the most stuck up bit*ches I'd ever met, she was rude and nasty to everyone at the wedding except JoJo.

I tend to think they were lovers. They certainly acted like bit**hes in love.

I would have loved to have sat down with some drinks and some herb and shot the shyt with Rick. I know that man had some stories. Plus he seemed like a real one.

Did Pryor wear a condom with Paul mooney

 

[Doobie Doo]

He was wearing a loud shirt with a tie, but the tie wasn’t tied and the shirt was unbuttoned. He came over to us, slapped me five, and then he looked at Alfonso. “Aren’t you an actor?” he said and then, boom, he hit him. “Gimme that fukking beer,” he said and grabbed Alfonso’s beer. “Rick, this is a kid, you can’t hit this guy like that,” I protested. He just took that bottle and swigged from it. He didn’t care if the kid had herpes. I’m sure Rick did. “What’s up, nikka?” he said to me."

Rick wasn't THAT crazy. He asked who he was to make sure he was in a position to punk him. Let Carlton have said "Dominican Mafia" or some shyt and see what Rick would've done.

This ain't verbatim, it's from memory on this article in Vibe on Rick James after he died. Morris Day said the last time he saw Rick was was after doing a show. I think they were staying at the same hotel or some shyt, and Rick got word he was there. Morris had made his rounds chopping it up with other stars, but hadn't hollered at Rick.

When they finally met up, Rick was like "Morris, you arrogant muthafukka! You and Prince used to open for me and now you too good to holla at a breh ."
Morris said he was like " I was gonna come through, I ain't cut like that." Rick : "You know I'm just fukkin with you . Gotta keep your ass humble."
