RAZ-B TALKS ABOUT LIFE AFTER B2K

Wednesday, June 7, 2006

razb.jpg Raz-B from the now de-funct B2K, recently talked to AOL BlackVoices about how life is after B2K.

“Transition is life. It was rough and shaky but it was worth it. I wouldn’t trade it for a zillion dollars. It taught me about working with people, taught me how important love was and loyal and how money is and all of that stuff. But I knew the Lord wanted me to walk through that transition to build my character and what not. Now I’m even stronger.”

Raz is also playing a gay character on ‘Noah’s Arc’ a show on Logo network, the cable channel geared toward the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community.

“There wasn’t any kissing or anything of that nature. It was a very, very positive role. It was to raise the awareness for kids with HIV and the kids who have AIDS. That’s our demographic. Fifty percent of those people are our people. I felt like it was a mature decision for me to play a gay character.”

Black Voices also reports that he is working on an ‘inspirational’ album, entitled, Raz-B: Revealer of Truths. (read more).

What is society’s fascination of speculating whether someone is gay or not? And once you find out they are or they arent, what kind of satisfaction do you get from it? lol

So from reading the comments from those above. If a straight man feels comfortable towards homosexuals, and Isnt ignorant and homophobic then that automatically makes him a suspect homosexual or full blown one?

Black people are an ignorant set of human beings. And its sad that you people in this day and age condone and promote ignorance. To be tolerant and understanding of homosexuals doesnt mean that your gay. Its mean that your secure with yourself, and have reached a level of emotional awareness that you can have compassion and understanding of another person despite if thier lifestyle or believes disagree with your own.

Well if I must……

First and foremost I’d like to thank God cause with out him I’m nothing. I’d like to thank all the small people on CL that helped me win this award. All the scallywags(new word for hater, I’m tired of that word)for their animosity and rude comments. I’d also like to thank the ones that can’t seem to get me out of their system(you know who you are :)) Most of all I’d like to thank their mama’s for raising dumb ass kids, because without them I wouldn’t be here on this stage today. Thank you & I love you all!!!!!!!:)

Let me start by saying that Raz-B is a queen. Let me continue by saying her sexual orientation shouldn’t be what offends people, what should offend everyone is that she look like a gay ass Kirk Franklin– THAT BITCH CAN’T DRESS. She looks like she has a very, very distressed spirit. And i don’t know which type of “kids” Miss Raz B is referring to, but Noah’s Arc I don’t think is geared towards youngsters, and all that was some stupid shit when she was talking about awareness and demographics.

The real kee of all of this is that she think she is a serious actor and that she should get some special award or recognition for taking on this role:
“I felt like it was a mature decision for me to play a gay character.”
BITCH YOU PLAY ONE IN YOUR EVERDAY LIFE!

Yes, I am an African American who is extremely proud of my race & heritage. But if you must know I do have excellent vision, and I can recognize perhaps even if I was blind, the sad state that the African American community is in. I mean anyone with half a mind can see that. I commend Raz-B for not being afraid to portray a role of a character who is homosexual. That doesnt make him homosexual, just means that he’s an actor.

And if it stung, then well I know my effect has been made. Becuz

@ # 45 large_sized_teen and Asbury…

Well that’s what ‘Christians’ do… we love the person but dislike their sin. Maybe her wording was off to you but it made since to me… (what she was trying to say)..

How come every one always wants to shoot down the Christians if we say something is wrong? Of course we know (in God’s eyes) sin is sin…not one is greater than the next. But as soon as we say something is wrong we are judging and ‘casting that first stone’… well my pastor just said that wrong is wrong and telling someone they are wrong is NOT judging…that’s the problem..SOMEBODY OUGHT TO SAY SOMETHING, I’m just saying…

And isn’t calling someone a ’saved Christian’ an oxymoron?? You can’t be a Christian w/o being saved…can’t be Christ like until you have accepted Him as your Lord and personal savior… I’m just saying.

110.

GeminiPrize

Wednesday, June 7, 2006 /

Sometimes Christians can make people who don’t live exactly as they live feel “less than” This does not include all Christians. I am a Christian and I have friends who are strong in their Christianity. Sometimes “Christians” can be quite condescending, even though they since just as much as the rest of us.

Say what you will, but I’m speaking my peace based on my experience.

I don’t attend your church so I don’t care what your “pastor” says. You saying something is wrong is judging and just because your pastor says it isn’t doesn’t make it law.
What gives you, your pastor or anyone else for that matter the right to say someone is committing a sin?
As I said I’m not going to turn this into a biblical debate but if SO CALLEDD CHRISTIANS worried about what was going on in their own damn lives and not there neighbors maybe the state of the CHURCH wouldn’t be in the shape it’s in now. It’s nothing but a fuckin fashion show any way.

Now if you or anyone else has anything they’d like to say to me e-mail it to me at KISSMYGAYLOVINASS@FUCKYOU.COM

I feel you, some christians do that but not all of us. I have met ppl that will try to put you down for not being like them. As a christian I don’t agree with what some do, that does not mean I hate them. If somebody in my fam came out and said they were gay, I am not gonna lie I will let them know why I think is wrong. I am not gonna stop loving them, just won’t agree with what he/she does.

#109, this was taken from Merrian-Webster’s website:

Main Entry: ox·y·mo·ron
:a combination of contradictory or incongruous words (as cruel kindness); broadly : something (as a concept) that is made up of contradictory or incongruous elements.

Religion should have nothing to do with this blog.

If the man is gay than he’s gay, who cares. This society is pro-homo even though they front like they’re not. Most of these “anti-gay marriage” politicians are homos and pedophiles their damn selves. At the same time, there’s nowhere in the Bible where it says that all sin in equal, so stop making up your own shit. The Bible says that a homosexual is supposed to be put to death if he/she doesn’t repent. Whether you believe in the Bible or not is your prerogative. Unfortunately, alot of these young singers get turned out by the record executives (Tevin Campbell, Usher, etc.) It is what it is.

Good statement #113.
Well, as I’ve said before, we don’t all HAVE to agree. I for one, think homosexuality is wrong. Morally wrong. That’s my belief. I look at it like this- God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah due to homosexuality. (Sodom is the root word of sodomy afterall).

Hey ya’ll I am new to the board. I hope I can state my opinion without causin any problems.
I dont understand why any straight man would want to play as a homo. But hey thats his thing, I guess. On the gay subject,I can say that man is suppose to be with woman, point blank. I know its 2006 and you should be free to do whatever, so they say. Bottom line we were put her to make a nation which is our children. Now I understand that being gay could be a fetish or you might have some deep insecurities.But its not cool. Its not cool how the media is pushing it like the gay fad is ok to do. I do believe that Raz B has a whole cementary in his closet.

Judah fuck you okay. Where in the Bible does it say one sin is worse then the next?
I’m not about to get into it with a bunch of Bible thumpers.
As I said before no sin is more egregious than the next. The Bible also says a women is suppose to be put to death for cheating but you muthafuckers don’t hold adulterers to the same laws as you do Gays. Why is that? Are you worried your ass may be gay????
Stop worrying about what happens at night in OTHER peoples homes and worry about yourselves. Fucking hypocrites.

Beside the fact if you really wanna get technical the Ten Commandments wasn’t written for Christians any way, it was written for Jews. Christianity came into long after the Ten Commandment had been written. You people pick and chose what you want to obey in the Bible. The Bible says men aren’t suppose round the corners of their beards, but you do. As I said a bunch of fuckin hypocrites.
Now leave me the fuck alone.

I live life as a straight woman. I have a man, and really, when it comes down to it, I’m not concerned about other people’s sexuality. I can only be accountable for what I do with MY man. I cannot be accountable for what John Doe does with his man, or what Jan Doe does with her woman (although I’m not concerned anyway, as I stated before) Not judging doesn’t mean condoning it, it means that that you don’t choose that same thing for yourself, and you aren’t giving an unwanted opinion to a person that probably doesn’t want it. There are bigger things to be worried about than whose straight and whose gay. Do you guys watch MSNBC??? They have these special reports on pedophiles that lure kids and teens in on the internet. And many of those people are straight. Let’s start a blog about that shit.

A powerful quote my Coretta Scott King. Who was a strong, black, chiristian woman..

“I still hear people say that I should not be talking about the rights of lesbian and gay people…. But I hasten to remind them that Martin Luther King Jr. said, ‘Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.’ I appeal to everyone who believes in Martin Luther King Jr.’s dream to make room at the table of brother and sisterhood for lesbian and gay people”

King said her husband supported the quest for equality by gays and reminded her critics that the 1963 March on Washington was organized by Bayard Rustin, an openly gay man.
