THE CATCH-UP: ERYKAH BADU PREGNANT / 106 & PARK DRAMA / YUNG BERG TRYIN’ HARD
Wednesday, July 16, 2008
Yeah yeah yeah, CL has been slow as hell for the past few days. But hey, it’s the summer time. Here are a few hot topics that have been circulating the net for the past few days..
I’m sure everyone heard by now that singer Erykah Badu is pregnant with her third child by up and coming rapper Jay Electronica. When Ms. Badu heard about the backlash some message boards were giving her for having children out of wedlock she did want any mother would do, she defended herself and her kids.
“How date you disrespect the queendom … and my children and my intelligence. I’ve never been so disgusted in all of my life,” the singer began in her rant.
Badu went on to plead her case, explaining how serious she takes being a mother. She states that she has raised two very good children, and acts as both the mother and father in most cases.
“I am a great mother and caregiver to my two children, and to this world,” Badu wrote. “My children are two of the kindest and happiest people I have met … I am their doctor and their nurse, and even sometimes their mother and their father. I am an excellent mother and resent all of the negative comments and insults on my character.” [read more]
Badu has one child with Andre 3000 of Outkast, and another with west coast rapper The D.O.C. Now.
106 & PARK DRAMA
Last week Rocsi walked off the set of BET 106 & Park because Terrence was running at the mouth the whole show (view video here). I don’t watch BET like that and 106 & Park has been garbage since they hired the both of them, so this rumor is probably a publicity stunt to get higher ratings. However, I did receive an email from someone who works over there with some new info:
CL TIPSTER:
Rocsi has been put on indefinite leave for her stunt last week. If you didn’t know she walked off the stage on Friday after Terrence continued to harass her. She will not be making any appearances on the stage for the next 2-3 Weeks. And rumor is around here that they plan on replacing both of them by the end of the year..
The tipster went on to say that Rocsi has been on the chopping board for awhile now and this just gave them a good reason to get rid of her. Aww well..
YUNG BERG IS A LAME
Yung Berg has been giving interview after interview to try to clear his name after an audio clip of him saying some RACIST comments about dark-skinned black women was released last week. He released an apology earlier this week, but please. If you don’t know what he said here ya go:
“I’m kinda racist…I don’t like dark butts…You know how some women prefer light skin men or dark skin men,” said the “Sexy Can I” rapper during an interview with radio show “Lip Service.” “It’s rare that I do dark butts – that’s what I call dark skinned women…I [don’t date women] darker than me.”
Things just got “better” from there as he went on to say, “I love the pool test. If you can jump in the pool exactly like you are and you don’t come out looking better than you looked before going in the pool – then that’s not a good look. Any woman that uses brown gel to set down her baby hair is not poppin.” [ READ MORE / AUDIO CLIP ]
Peep his most recent interview with NUTZ in the Morning Show, which he tries to clarify how the interview went down. I don’t care how it went down, he just got added to the CL banned list for that BS..

Well first things first..106th and Park drama… now if you ask me BET need to get some new hosts cuz Terrance and Rocsi are both lame as hell, the both of the are a bunch of damn clowns who can’t even do there job.
What they need to do is bring back AJ and Free…cuz that show looks like a sinking ship and those two are the only ones who could possible help the ratings

3 different men three babies by all three, I don’t care what anybody says. NOT a good look on a women as well as a man.
Terrance and Rocsi, who cares they are both cornballs.
Yung berg; ignorance at it’s best. It’s one thing to have a preference but to be racist against your own is just plain ignorance.

Erykah, You should you have let me known that you were wanting another Baby. It seems you wouldnt have even bothered me for my Nickel, Dime Child Support either. I’m pissed! We could make pretty babies together! It’ll take a while but I’m sure I’ll forgive you like I’ve done before. Call me.

Berg is a LAMO! He really tried to switch it up at the last minute but it didn’t work homie. Rocsi…we love you and all but your time has ended hunny bunches of oats. That was a dumb move on your part and with the recession going on, you should have remained on stage. Oh well!

Terrence was being pretty obnoxious the whole show. It seemed like he had a personal beef with her to me. She probably dumped him or wouldn’t get with him. Who knows.
As for Yung Berg, he is pathetic. He basically dissed the very women who made him who he is. He is a permanent Z-lister. Some folks get a little fame, and don’t know how to act. Dumbass threw his career away over some self-hating B.S.

I agree that they jst need to fire both of them and replace them ASAP! I can’t tell you how many people won’t watch the show just because of the hosts. Back to the drawing board BET…
Erykah Badu’s uterus, relationships, and kids are no one’s business but her own. She has to live with her choices and obviously she can, so that’s all that matters. The kids’ fathers are in their lives and we, the taxpayers, don’t have to pay for her kids, so I don’t understand all the hub-bub and backlash. You can’t judge someone you know nothing about
Yung Berg, please stop apologizing. No one believes you! You said how you felt and I think people would respect you more if you stood by what you said instead of trying to act like the media took it the wrong way. We heard the audio, we didn’t read exerpts! Most importantly, your own mother is a “dark butt” as you referred to us brown and chocolate sisters, so you should be ashamed of yourself! You not only disrespected your sisters, but your own damn mama!

OMG Im so excited that they are getting rid of th eboth of them!!!, I felt that T-Money was really out of line for tellign Rocsi she needs to have a body more like Ciara. i would have jumped my ass over that sofa and decked him to infintey and beyond!!! She played it cool tho! Yet, she’s having an identity crisis and thinks her celeb stardom consists more than being a host of 106& Park. Where the hell si Aj and Free?!?! They (R &T) both really need to go. end of story.

Free and AJ are so overrated. People act like they were the best hosts in the world. They did the same thing that Roci and Terrence do: Fake flirting, awkward interviews.
As for the Terrence and Rocsi thing, Terrence definitely went way too far, but I don’t mind if Rocsi doesn’t come back.
And BET was crap before they hired them and they will be crap after they fire them.

Terrance is a lame for that too. I think it was a little unprofessional to walk off during the show, but honestly, sometimes its fight or flight. She could’ve knocked the shit out of him on camera, but she decided to walk away instead. He should have laid off, especially if she’s having trouble at work anyway. And he was making personal attacks!! I think he should be “relieved” as well, especially after saying she was being too sensitive. That what really made it seem real, because at first, I thought it was acting.
But anyway, why did people think 106 and Park was so great when AJ and Free were there? I thought it was a little drab.

I love Erykah like the next person but the fact that she herself has to make concession like “I am even sometimes their mother and their father” proves she’s not using her wisdom as she should. And I’ll leave it at that…
106 & Park shouldn’t scapegoat these two…It’s their fault for picking bad host after bad host. I personally think they should go out and hire two kids and not people in their mid twenties and then they wouldn’t have this problem.
Young Berg is such a nobody that I almost don’t want to lend dignity to his comments (because I didn’t even consider the producer dude famous enough to warrant a response) but he’s just making an example of himself…he’s not the first but he’s definitely going to be the face. And it’s sad because often we take color bias to be about a darker skinned male’s lack of self-esteem…I guess it’s a plague. But, you know, T.I. said something very similiar to this in a song and nobody cared…to paraphrase, the line was something like “they say the brown will cut but the red will cut too”…basically, he said “of course the darker skinned ones will get down but amazingly the lighter skinned ones will too!” ha! all these people are lame, which is why I don’t get how they make millions…but I guess they are just jumping around for our amusement…

Even though you guys have been slow with the post I’m not sure if this site brings in any paper or not for ya’ll but you still should keep the site up to date with up to date post. I mean I know this is not journalism.. My degree was in PR and all of these post are past their time..IMO some of these stories were talked about on other sites last week and throughout the weekend or on Monday.

Who’s Yung Berg again? Exactly. Any female who buys his cd is pretty much a dumb b*@#h. There goes his entire fan base.
Terrance is so wack it’s not even funny. He puts on that fake New York accent, dresses like a 15 year old boy, and thinks he’s so hard. Go eat some food, gain some wieght and then come at Rocsi for her body. I’ve noticed he’s been feeling himself of late. You are on a wack show that no one watches except for 12 year old girls, STOP FEELING YOURSELF, LOSER.
I was talking to my co-worker who’s in his mid 30’s and he was saying he used to watch 106 & P back when Free and AJ were on. Needless to say he doesn’t anymore. That just shows how much that show has fallin off, they actually had adults watching back then. Only teeny boppers who don’t really think watch it now. BET made a big mistake in letting them go. That show will never be what it used to be no matter how many hosts and make overs they go through.

Erykah Eryakah Eryakah this is not ok I don’t care who you are three baby daddy’s out of wedlock sends the wrong message first to your own children and secondly to your young fan base!!! Get mad Erykah but I’m sorry your crown is dented baby!!
I don’t make a habit of judging folk normally I would say “do you and if you like it I love it. but this time I’m not loving what you presenting as a “queen” more hoodrat then anything else.
It has nothing to do with how you raise your children, how happy or how intelligent they are EB. Lead by example and wrap it up int he name of love! just cuz you are loving the one you are with doesn’t mean you should have a baby by him or more importantly not practice safe sex!!! Teach your kids that while you are home-schooling… aaaaaagh she ticked me off she shouldn’t haven’t responded at all but obviously she must be feeling a way about what she is portraying to her fans as well!!

Terrence and Rocsi clearly have a personal beef off-camera. That’s what happens when you mix business with pleasure. Anyway, Terrence was so rude and unprofessional. Her walking off may not have been the best thing to do but she was clearly hurt. However, if they replace the two, I have no complaints. They’re sort of corny and besides, BET is a network that is supposed to promote black starpower so the co-hosting positions should have gone to two blacks in the first place.

Terrance stepped out of line with asking why she don’t have a body like Ciara. That shit was on the line of sexual harassment. Point Blank. If he had some personal beef with her then he should’ve addressed it off camera. I was offended and he wasn’t even talking to me. He lucky if she don’t get his ass whipped. The sad part is that Terrance tried to make her look bad… but he looked even worse.

Theres no need to explain yourself for not putting up posts, but if u must- try not to sound so defensive
It’s really a compliment when people kick up a fuss about the lack of posts, because it means you have a very solid fan base who notice when theres a change in the standard. It reminds you how highly regarded and in demand your site is and lets me know that I must seek a shrink ASAP for Concreteloop addiction… lol

Rocsi and Terrance aint worth mentioning, BET really think ppl are gonna watch that show with their corny antics and video “cutoffs” when weve got youtube, dailymotion…
Yung Berg only made the situation worse. Preference is preference, so he doesn’t need to be beat up over that. Face the facts most of us prefer this or that and even if he said it in a nicer way people would have still been upset. But to screw some groupie [she aint smart] who happens to be dark skinned to rid the stupid comments only made you look like a 16 year old boy bruh.

I’m tired of commenting on Yung Berg’s ass. I’m glad that alot of blogs aren’t posting shit on him anymore. Too bad for him, because blogs were the only reason he was slightly relevant. And I honestly wasn’t offended, because i’m sure none of my fellow chocolate sistas would waste emotions on such an ignorant mofo. Then he tries to validate his ignorance with a wack apology and thorws in, “My mom is dark-skinned.” Wow…that makes you look like even more of an idiot.
As for Terrance and Rocsi, she must’ve really been going through it with him off the camera. Because the few times I did catch the show in the past, they always crazked on eachother. And last Friday’s show was no different. I guess she just wasn’t having it. But thank God they’re being replaced, maybe the show will be worth watching when that change is made.

@ 27, a preference is fine. I prefer a certain type of man also, but I don’t have to DEGRADE another race, or skin complexion to get my point across. That’s where Yung Berg appeared ignorant and stupid. That pool test ish is dumb, as if dark skin, AA women are the only females who wear false eye lashes, hair gel, or anything else artificial. I bet half the light skin females in his damn videos can’t pass his “pool test”.

took it out of context. Does he not know we heard it, we didn’t read it. No one
egged you to say it. It is what you feel, young berg. Then try to make it be better by saying you are laying up with a dark skin women. Who I’m glad did
not give up her name- she should be ashamed- . Then later he say he never
been with a dark skin.Then he said his prefernce is light skin women. He just
restated what he already said in the interview before, just mnus the colorful
language

YYug Berg needs to realize if he gets a “light butt” with his ugly fucked up teeth, no rap career having ass, she want him for what little cash he has!! Stupid ass, there is nothing wrong with having a preference, I prefer dark chocolate myself, but I don’t need to make that preference derogatory to light skinned men, that just shows his ignorance! Then he doesn’t have the balls to stand by his comment, trying to back peddle like a bitch!!!
Miss Badu, is a grown woman, she has to answer for herself, leave that woman alone y’all.
As for Rocsi, she must be crazy, walk off your job, because someone pissed you off?? What did you have before and who do you think you are to do some shit like that if they fired Free and A.J and they were the hotness back in the day, why wouldn’t they drop your ass in a hot minute, she may find her ass back in Chicago for that bullshit!! Stupid!!!

Terrence and Rocsi should both be fired. That was personal sh** they were on and it should never have been brought to their job.
As for Ms. Badu, aka “the queendom”, you are right. It is no one’s business how you live your life. If you have 10 kid out of wedlock who cares? As long as they are taken care it shouldn’t matter.
First of all that was one of the most ignorant interviews I have ever heard. Where do they find these DJs? Yung Berg should just shut up. Really just SHUT UP. And how nice of you to go out and find you a chocolate girl to experiment with….. WTF? Just shut up.

I caught wind of the 106 & park story yesterday and decided to YouTube it. After watching the clip, I personally think BET needs to set an across the board example and fired both of them for simply being unprofessional. I even thought it was silly and offensive when AJ and Free joked around. The problem is BET lack all kinds of professionalism as a network. Consequently, they typically keep their standard very low in my opinion. If you compare TRL and 106 & park, TRL blows 106 OUT the PARK. I’m a business owner and the accountability always lies with the head, so Debra GET your SH*T together ( yeah I said it). Let’s start setting higher standards for the network, start hiring professional employees, and move the network to another level, versus it’s current level of mediocrity……

AND, although I question her actions, ultimately her actions are just that. Her actions, and I don’t have any control over there, nor the time to rant or blog about them as it is. But just as she has a right to her opinion about how she thinks it’s okay to have three children by three different dads, then the people that blogged about her certainly have the right to express their points of view. You either believe in the freedom that she speaks of (ERYKAH), or you don’t. She is trying to justify herself, but she wont allow others to speak on how they feel.
Enough said.

Another thing, the fact that Terrance brought his personal beef with Rocsi to work just shows his level of maturity. He’s a child, looks like one too.
To those saying they always tease eachother like that. They do come at eachother, but it’s always friendly, and they joke about it. This time it was serious. He was really trying to cut her where it hurt. Like you never comment on a female’s body like that, especially on national TV. He knew what he was doing and he won. You could see the hurt in her demeanor as she walked off.
Really Terrance? I hope she gets one of her big ass Puerto Rican friends to steal you in the face PUNK.

On one hand I understand where Erykah is coming from. She doesn’t really owe an explanation about her personal choices. What she decide for her and her children is her right as long as it does not involve physical threat or such (according to law)
But on the other hand, the journalist/media just stated the facts and said things that ppl were already thinking about Erykah Badu. I just hope that she teaches her children that having one woman or man for their children is okay too. With that being said, I enjoy her music so that’s all that I concentrate on when it comes to her. Im sure if someone dug into the life of the journalist they would find some unfavorable things as well. Nobody is perfect. At least she’s getting pregnant by men who are ambitious and well off so she’s definitely not stupid.

rocsi was unproffessional by walking off stage but terrence was wrong for harrassing her. idk if they was playin but clearly she was gettin upset so he shoulda stopped. he went too far. rocsi was at the end of the show so she coulda waited to walk off but w/e. maybe they should get rid of both of them. this whole thing is overated because personally i feel that they was messin wit each other and proly rocsi dont want him no more so he got bitter and tried to show out on t.v. if rocsi dont come back terrence need to leave AND issue a poblic apology to her since he was bold enuff to dis her like dat.
point blank…it wasnt the same since free and a.j. left =[ they woulda never pulled some garbage like dis

Ok a few things….
1. If you have had SEX with three people then you have no room to judge ms. Badu…your condemning her for doing what damn near everyone does, she just happened to decide to have children with these men…but thats her choice….and i find it mighty hypocritical that people will have sex with fifty-eleven men and then turn around and judge the woman has children with the men she sleeps with…as long as her kids are well taken care of and have strong relationships with there fathers SO WHAT…
2. Yung Berg is a jerk and an idiot…Listening to that tape CL just put up with him in bed with a dark-skin woman does nothing for me…any man that needs to VALIDATE his own self worth through a woman is not man enough for me….

Sorry Erykah, you can’t justify that crap. You ain’t married, and you popping out babies left and right. I don’t go for that. Stupid celebs do what they want, and they do dangerous trends. She can get mad all she want but she is WRONG.
Yung Berg can’t even spell his name right, so don’t give him the time of day. Black women are beautiful period. He’s just mad cuz he’s ugly as hell, and only sounds good in other people’s songs.

about ‘Yung Berg’: What a lame. Thankfully, his career will probably be short-lived. Music really sucks nowadays.

1st off, Young Berg, u messed up big time didn’t ya? 1st off, he isn’t even a relevant rapper. I can’t even name 1 song he has except for him being featured on Ray J’s wack song. How young & dumb is he and how well did he just prove that. Ok, he was honest, yeah, yeah, yeah, but if he wants to make it as a sussecsful rapper, he shouldn’t diss his fans, which im sure were mostly women. It wasn’t like he had a big mega-hit that put him on the map around the world, he’s still trying to get there and then goes and says some dumb, childish and stupid stuff like that. Now he trying to pull a “jessie” and apologize…man please.
Ok, next onto Rosci & Terrance. I saw the video and thought to myself how childish Terance was acting. Some of things he was saying to her weren’t even funny, but rather cruel. She was hanging in there for the most part. I feel like she shouldn’t of walked off, but rather stuck it out and then told him off after the show was done. Why wasn’t Terrance suspended as well? He was very unprofessional the whole show acting like a 5th grader picking on the quiet kid in class. Terrance was just as wrong as Rosci walking off the show. It does seem like the two of them have more going than just co-workers. And u could cut the tension between the two with a knife the whole show. I doubt AJ & Free will come back. AJ is working on Extra so he’s probally under contract with them. ANd Free is older now, so BET will probally not bring her back because of that, its dumb. but thats how it probally is over there at BET. Tigger & Julissa did a good job, maybe they’ll bring them back, who knows.
In my opinion, Erykah is a grown ass woman. It’s her choices and I understand what she was saying in her response to the media or whatever. She is an adult–over 25 and has a successful career. Shes a good woman & mom, so just let Erykah do her. It’s not like she’s the 1st women with kids who have differrent dads. Aretha Franklin got kids with different fathers and she has won so many accolades in her life. SO they just need to leave Erykah alone.

i could careless about 106 & Park; show is so junior high now.
Yung Berg’s statement represents alot of the ignorance some black men feel against their own race; translation is that he hates himself. So sad that this sickness runs so deep in our race and it will never change sadly. And actually i could give less than two rats shit about what he thinks of black women because i would never buy any of his cds. I wonder what color his mama is?!!!!!
No comment on Erykah.

Ok, I’m no fan of 106, Rocsi or Terrence, but c’mon…why is no one talking about how unprofessional Terrence was during the whole taping? It was clear that he was in his feelings over something that went down prior to taping. Even still, he should’ve left the taunting and slick comments for after the show. I don’t blame her for walking off…he acted like a complete @sshole the entire show!

Bottom line people, whether you like them or not, that was truly unprofessional on both their parts. What they were doing was crossing the professional line on air. When the audience is uncomfortable something is wrong. This is a classic example why people don’t watch BET anymore. Can we please have a show with competent people.
Young Berg Who?

……I see Ms Badu’s point. If you’re a good mother to your children (provider, caregiver, teacher, etc) then it shouldn’t matter how many babies you have. And it doesn’t hurt if you have enough money to keep the taxpayers from having to foot the bill for your decisions. However, the issue that this would not be considered a good look if it was Shananay from around the way. We wouldn’t give Shananay any slack and she would be called all types of hoe for being a three-time baby mama. A lot of usBlack women have to constantly battle and disprove these streotypes that we’re only good for planting seeds and being “nutbuckets” (as Khia so profoundly put it). I also don’t think she should have responded. It’s her right to, but she makes it seem like she’s justifying her actions. If she’s happy with her decision and knows her own story, she shouldn’t have to explain. But she’s human and the people who criticized her must have struck a nerve.
………I saw the clip where Terrence was disrespecting Rocsi. While they are both annoying as hell to me (I never watch 106), he went way over the line with that mess. You could almost tell he was trying to assert his manhood after she let him hit it. So high school! Grow up Terrance. Your ass needs to be fired.
Y…….Have I ever heard a Young Berg song? No. Don’t think so. So he can saddown. His ass just trynna stay relevant. And if he had the balls to say it he should have the balls to defend it. Too much high school shit going on in this post.

How can anyone be surprised by YUNG (can’t even spell the damn word right!!) Berg’s comments? This is how a lot of young, UNEDUCATED black brothers and sisters think. And he clearly isn’t intelligent enough to see what he said was wack in the first place—I think it’s OK for him to prefer lightskinned women, but to DEGRADE darkskinned women as “dark butts” is shameful. He himself isn’t good-looking, I doubt he’s very well educated or even literate, and he ISN’T EVEN RELEVANT in the rap game. The most effective punishment he could get is to have people boycott his already sinking and directionless career. Good job Angel on that call to ban his ass from CL. Ignoring someone is the best kind of humiliation!
SMH@Erykah, for someone so spiritual and intelligent and wise, who makes some of the most creative and diverse music around, she’s turning out to be a baby mama. I’m sorry, this is her third kid with another man. I hope this guy is for keeps.
The way Terrance spoke to Rocsi was horrible and unprofessional and he should be chastised for that. He is nothing but a lameass cornball who shouldn’t even be on that show. BET needs to bring back AJ and Free, as well as Teen Summit, Cita’s World, and anything else in its days when it actually resembled a RESPCTABLE black network.

Erykah Badu is on her 3rd child with her 3rd baby daddy? Sorry but who cares. I know I don’t. As long as her children are well taken care of then who are we to judge? I’m sure there are other celebrities with kids by different fathers out there so why is she in the limelight for it? And let’s remember a child didn’t come out of her & Common’s relationship. LOL And yes if this was a random chick on the street in the same situation I still wouldn’t care. It’s not me. As long as the kids are taken care of why talk about it? Anyway whatever, congratulations to her.
As for Young Berg, he clearly should have kept his “apologies” to himself. It’s pretty obvious he doesn’t prefer dark skin women which is fine, but why degrade them in such a manner? Especially if his mother (so he says) is a dark skin woman? C’mon now, he basically degraded and disrespected his OWN MOTHER. This guy is an idiot. We already have to deal with discrimination from other races but to have our own race discriminate us and make a mockery of us hurts even more. We look to our Black men to uplift us and have our back but it seems like all they do (not all) is bring us down and basically spit in our faces, which is exactly what Berg did.
It’s cool to have your own preference, we all do, that’s human nature. BUT it’s not right to disrespect what you don’t find attractive because best believe there is another person who finds what you dislike attractive.
As for the pool test, no light skin AFRICAN AMERICAN female would pass either.
