Damn. Remember that black DJ from the Ellen Degeneres show? He killed himself.

I've always had a strange feeling about that woman and her role in his depression. He probably was exhausted from trying keep up with all the social media demands since they became a famous dancing couple.

So she owes him the dignity of his good name but he can kill himself? :hubie:

This is deeper than people would like to believe

He wasn’t shot, it wasn’t an overdose, it wasn’t illness, he killed himself. That’s some next level shyt. I won’t belittle mental health, but damn man. That’s not just your own life thats lifelong trauma to your kids and wife , life irrevocably shattered.

Hopefully none of us will have to go thru what she is, but we can at least surmise that hey maybe just maybe she doesn’t feel obligated to treat him like a victim. Perhaps it’s off putting to see he’s treated like the one done wrong while you gotta pick these pieces up and explain where daddy at to the kids every night….by yourself :francis:

If you think about it——and erase our assumptions that she’s a gold digger, racist, they had a troubled marriage, etc——SHE is a victim. Like let’s assume they had a legit happy marriage and this came out of left field. I’m that case, yea straight up she is a victim. So while I’d thunk she shoulda kept this to herself but ….who are we to say. :manny:

Related sidenote, perhaps if we stop treating suicide like some noble martyrdom, people will do it a tad bit less
Fukk that white bytch :scust: and fukk you too

I still don't understand why breh did what he did.

PAWG wife and happy healthy kids. Easiest job in the world, i.e. decent salary from being a fake DJ on a corny TV show.

There are many people who would have killed to have what he had.

I guess there was stuff under the surface that we didn't know about, like this substance abuse stuff that's coming to light now.

With all that said, I don't really understand how a father could do that to his children, unless he truly thought that they / the world would be better off without him. It's amazing that our mind is capable of taking us to places like that :-(

Just for kicks, I was listening to that celebrity medium lady. I can't remember her name, but she called Diddy investigation and his arrest time frame....she says this dudes death was possibly tied to Diddy and that he was killed, not took his own life. She said he, being in that circle, may have knew some stuff he shouldn't have known and didn't go along with what they wanted.

So many od y'all in here dumping on this dude, and he was ALWAYS posting pro-Black and Black empowerment stuff. But hey, Coli gon Coli.

Again, we don't know if he really took his own life or if he was killed and made to look like he did.

There's more to this story than just a simple suicide.

Lets be honest. It is a simple suicide. It just happened to happen to someone who had some sort of notoriety and his wife gets to get paid to write a book and do a bunch of interviews to discuss. Does it need some grand jury investigation? Absolutely not. I get investigating Epsteins suicide or some shyt but this...this is nearly strictly publicity.

Id hope she is using this as some sort of mission to advocate for therapy and suicide awareness to help others who may be going through it and to help families that have gone through it. Which unfortunately requires more than just some social media posts, hashtags and a donation. I really don't expect her to become some sort of licensed mental health practitioner and start or join an organization that deals with this as their mission. I don't expect her name to be associated with advocacy going forward and there are many celebrities whos name have become synonymous with advocacy. It's a lot of leg work, not just donations and the occasional shout-out.

Three life lessons:

1. Take care of your mental health and get help if needed

2. Suicide is one of the most selfish and destructive things you can do to your family and friends

3. Be careful who you marry
