    C’mon now, if that were me being accused and I were innocent. Lawyers would be “employed”, hair would be getting plucked out from the roots and heads would be rolling!

    I STILL believe Raz-B’s initial statement. I hope he uses some of that money for some therapy because he’s going to need it; my heart goes out to him and the others who were messed up.

    Somebody go find Quindon (or however you spell his name) and ask him if he changed his mind.

    The truth already came out & came to light. Chris stokes has been exposed & his lawyers & him can threaten raz-b all they want & force him to rebuff his allegations. Everyone knows the truth now about chris stokes & the deviousness about this whole situation.

    I think the man is guilty. Proof of this would be the abnormal relationships of said singer and his stylist and now wife or the rumored relationship of a young artist and his manager. How could it be any different with a male mentor? When you look at some of the photos of these guys when they were growing up. The subliminal signs were there. Boys laying in bed together in their boxers?

    There was sincerity in Raz B’s initial statement. Also, what heterosexual male would openly admit to be molested and then take it back. That’s an implication of being your gay yourself (in the eye’s of some) in this society.

    Here is the latest. I’ma go check out MTV.com and see if I can find anything on this.

    From Bossip

    A highly placed source exclusively snitches to Bossip that Raz-B’s brother just called MTV and told them Raz B was forced by some Compton bloods to read a script provided by Chris Stokes lawyer on video, denying his previous molestation claims.

    Chris Stokes paid the bloods to shut Raz-B up but his brother, Ricky Romance, stands by his molestation claims against Stokes. Another source says Raz-B has “been missing for two days”.

    We thought it was money, Raz-B almost got shot yesterday!!

    Clearly older brother Ricardo has nothing to lose. This is his 15 minutes to shine.

    I’m gonna have to agree with you on that one. He is really hurting his brother’s credibility, but I’m not going to hold his actions against Raz B.

    Here is some additional info I found. For the record I believe RazB and believe he was pressured, possibly threatened to recant. Here is another allegation against Chris and also the disc trck from RayJ that came out before all of this says some interesting things about B2K.

    Here you go…
    Remember, Quindon? Everyone may be wondering where he is. Well he lives in Texas now and he is a born-again Christian. When he joined his church, he stood up to testify. He told his entire congregation that while his was a young boy being managed by Chris Stokes, Chris used to molest him. He spoke of a “secret group” of them (Marques Houston included) that used to jack each other off and perform oral sex on each other but no penetration. I know yall are reading this like “this person is trippin” but I have no reason to lie. I have seen this drama unfold for years. I was never told this story. I watched it play out from the time IMX was Immature (before LDB came along) until this very second. CHris had even been to court before behind a similar situation. Do your research if you want to know about that one. All this sudden success stuff you see going on with TUG and Chris Stokes are ALL THANKS TO JARELL, DREUX, MARIO and OMARI. Chris has been in the industry and nobody has wanted to mess with him but the industry already wanted B2K before Chris pulled a shady and stole them. So in order to get to B2K, they had to deal with Chris. There is over 10 years of history

    A bulletin was posted from Raz B’s MySpace page stating that he has been hanging out with fellow B2K member J-Boog and he doesn’t have his cell phone charger, but is just fine. I think he is avoiding his brother because he started all this mess probably including the leaking of the initial videos (which I still believe). Of course he could have called his brother from J-Boog’s phone, but chose not to. I thin the boy is going through it right now and my heart and prayers go out to him.

    enquiring mind..that info was sent to AHH from Ricardo..

    Bird says:

    Raz B has issued a statement via MySpace that anything reported on Bossip should be ignored. I think they need to stop talking to his brother. I think he started this mess. Raz B was obviously dealing with this in his own way and his brother put him on front street by releasing the video to the world thereby putting Raz in a position where he had to recant it.

    This is very sad. I’m hoping someone will finally step up and stop Chris Stokes, but if Raz doesn’t want to be that person I’m going to respect him and ignore anymore talk of this matter that doesn’t come directly from his mouth.

    are you going to post Ricky’s statement that he’s going to Oprah and etc and did you post how Raz B said on DC radio station PGC 95.5 that the apology was forced?

    Hello Sandra,

    First and foremost, I am not going to allow myself to insult you or anyone else who commented on this matter because each person is entitled to their own opinion.

    I understand why some would like to believe that Raz B is lying because of his history in the past. I’m sure Raz B has had a very troubled childhood from what we’ve all know and there are reasons behind all of his actions like most children who lived similar lives. I’m not using this an excuse. But I’m speaking as a person who has also lived thru a similar experience and understand why he waited so long to come out with the truth. Until you’ve experienced for yourself you will never understand the magnitude of how it can affect your whole life. We as humans tend to ignore signs and never want to acknowledge the truth because the truth is hard to swallow. And that’s why we turn to denial and if we continue on with that type of mentality our generation of children will be worse off than they already are. Yes Raz B has a negative history from abusing his teacher to being accused as a liar but did anyone sit him down as a child and try to figure out his actions. And we wonder why kids are going on shooting sprees in malls and committing suicide. We still don’t know for sure who’s telling the truth but I pray for both parties because end the end only God can judge each and every one of us.

    Thank You

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    REALLY?

    If RazB made the tape and didn’t intend to release it yet (if ever) his brother should respect that. From what Ricardo is saying, he seems partially responsible.

    I know they are both probably angry but it’s time for the 3 P’s to intervene: Professional lawyers, Professional prosecutors, Professional counselors.

    I pray these brothers get through this in one piece.

    I want to say that there is not enough money or fear that would keep me from letting the truth be known but like I said that’s just me!! let me make sure I’m being OBJECTIVE in case someone disagrees with this comment!! anyway if Raz posted that video cause he was paid which is what a lot of people want to assume then to me thats crazy if something like this happened to you there should be nothing that would keep the truth from being told, these 2 individuals are supposedly related so that would make the situation even more sicker than it actually is I pray for both of them but like I said why wait until now if something happened to his older brother than he should have left Raz out of it I understand you doing things in your own time but this is serious & if it’s true like I said someone should have known somehing they were kids when all this went down I’m not sure what type of relationship they had with there folks but I let my kids know it’s ok to tell me anything that is going on even if they think it’s wrong cause in the long run they will be the only ones getting hurt & will wind up needing counseling because they felt they couldn’t tell anyone what happened to them.
