Kelis doesn't even look like the type of girl that would let a man beat her, if we wanna keep it real.
1) Any woman can be beat under the right/wrong circumstances. No one is a superhero.

2) How someone presents themselves, especially a celebrity, does not make that person the sum of their image.

3)Anytime that a woman, even a successful one, seeks a man mostly due to his fame and power in excess of hers, she will go to great lengths to keep that level of excess. Including and not limited to, abuse.

i'll withhold judgement until i hear a statement from nas or more concrete evidence comes out :hubie:

not saying it isn't probable--in fact, no celebrity is above reproach--but black men are always guilty in the court of public opinion no matter how outlandish the claim(s)

pac notoriously was railroaded on dubious allegations... had that been in 2018, it would've been finito for him. hence his infamous like, "hell hath no fury like a woman scorned... a cemetery full of mothafukkas not knowin'" :hubie:





I do agree that Nas need to say something

especially in light of this Cosby stuff. You can't have allegations out there swirling and you sittin up thinking, "I'm not even gonna dignify it" or "it'll go away on its own"

that's not how stuff works anymore

How is it financially convenient for Kelis to bring this up now? Wouldn't these kind of revelations potentially harm Nas's finances?

You nikkas gotta be 13 on here.

Believe it or not, many women silently stay in abusive relationships for YEARS for before getting the courage to either speak up or leave. shyt isn't as clear cut as you'd like to imagine but you'll discover that when you're psychologically abusing your wife for dressing up too nicely for work.

Not only that women feel that nobody will believe them without hard evidence

That's why a lot of women dont speak out.


Imagine if Michelle Obama came out and said Barack put his hands on her, 90% of people wouldn't believe it and would call Michelle all types of names

Yeah, where's all that energy and why are nikkas hopping up for women again like this shyt hasn't gotten the brakes cut before?
"BUT WE GOTTA BELIEVE HERRRR"
Says who, nikka? You ain't gotta ride with him...and we also ain't gotta care.

side-note: i'm really surprised she grew in harlem, let alone the frederick douglass projects, with that valley girl intonation in her voice... :jbhmm:
Doubt she grew up grew up in Harlem tho. Shes an artist/entertainer so she probably moved around alot at an early age.

If there's no hard evidence (which is moderately easy to get for domestic abuse cases) then anyone with common sense has every reason to doubt it. There is no reason for Kelis to wait 9 whole years after divorcing him when there was nothing Nas can do to stop her from speaking out (if she's telling the truth), yet only bring this up right when Nas about to make $40 million deal. That has bullshyt written all over it.
