During that time, 14 was pretty much par for the course for motherhood age. Especially since 65 was considered ancient since many people died in what we now consider middle age (40s and 50s). Here's an interesting article about life expectancy throughout time: http://www.ancient-origins.net/news-evolution…

I couldn't edit. I meant to say group "members" (plural) but I wrote it as member. You're right. It was three of them. I wasn't aware they were still doing things in the business. NICE!

So did I. Lol

When they said "minor" I thought they meant her rejecting his advances, not him burning the house down. Her rejecting him was minor and should not have lead to him doing anything else than saying "okay" or the like and moving the hell on. Him burning her house down definitely was minor.

I recognize that. I meant it though. I realize it can be off-putting so thanks for that.

Yeah, I commented about that as well in another response. He was crazy and they all basically to "escape" him in order to start actually working and building a name for themselves.

He did post that. However, he also was unhinged and clearly homicidal toward pretty much anyone he saw at the "enemy". Both the cops and his girlfriend where a threat (how so, I'm not sure but apparently he thought so) so he shot them. Leaving her out of the narrative frames it as him just gunning for the cops only…

They were both really, really bad drug addicts as well so that contributed majorly to the abuse. I know she's been clean for a while, but I'm not sure that he has.

I thought that was kinda over the top as well, just not enough to write about it. lol

Lol, I don't think he was singing. I think he was just learning production from Devante. Missy initially wanted to sing/rap only but Devante kinda steered her to production and the rest is history.

My dad and his girlfriend have a three month old baby. This summer he came to visit me to help with my recovery after surgery: a surgery where I wasn't sure if I would emerge from with one less ovary. Ovary kept, but I may have issue getting pregnant. Fine. Whatever. A week after the surgery my dad tells me that him…

Because Devante is said to be...eccentric, I think Timbaland will have to alter his production style to the type of sound he knows is classic Devante-Swing. There was a whole documentary about Missy where she gave props to Devante, but it's an open secret he pretty much had them holed up doing music everyday, all day…

Fucking thank you. People need to stop talking about her.

Timbaland actually was an "understudy" (can't think of a better word) of Devante of Jodeci. Him, Missy Elliot, Ginuwine, and the lesser known group member Playa all honed their craft from Devante. So I'm kind of excited to see how Timbaland, being the good producer he is in his own right, will work with his former…

Right?!

G-ddammit! Can we just stop talking about her? At least until the end of the year? I've had my quota of racist shit that we MUST discuss this year. 2014 has been awful for race relations and discussing the racism of some un-fucking-talented bitch is just too much to handle during the remainder of the year.

I think there's a whole lot more to his wife dying her hair blond and changing her eye color to blue. Didn't think about that in the content of this whole Iggy thing but it's definitely something that makes you go "hmmm."

I thought maybe I was hearing it wrong because I just KNEW he was saying "dale" and not "baile" (cuz wouldn't it be bailer...or bailamos...or something other than "baile") Excuse the spelling...it's been a while since HS Spanish and I could google but I'm currently enjoying a glass a wine at my desk and I don't want…

I agree with this: "any song that feels like that is the intent is just awful."

That's my thing. I don't care if you white, Indian, Latina, etc singing about booty...as long as you have some. Fergie doesn't have the most booty I've ever seen but she's sang about it and clearly she's squating or something to make the booty pop cuz it does. I can dig it.
