Add Swizz Beatz‘s wife Mashonda to the list of jump offs who have come up and cashed out.

Rapper/producer SWIZZ BEATZ is to divorce his wife after four years of marriage, according to reports.

Swizz Beatz – real name Kasseem Dean – and his R+B singer wife Mashonda wed in 2004 and have a one-year-old son, Kasseem Jr.

A spokesperson for the star has refused to specify a reason for the couple’s parting, but is adamant the separation was “on amicable terms”. The representative tells sources, “Their union was one shared in love and deep admiration for one another. (Source)

Sandra ..

Every women that is dating an entertainer and happens to partake in the industry is NOT A JUMP OFF. How do you know that they weren’t happy with each other and then things just fell apart?

yeah they were together a good minute before they decided to tie the knot..this isn’t a jump off situation..since he was the only one who had faith in her singing abilities..i wonder what’s she going to do now?

Calling her a jumpoff is a lil’ disrespectful don’t ya think???

You never heard rumors of her sleeping around or Swizz cheating on her, so why go there…I mean they still have a fam to take care of…a lil’ respect goes a LONG way!!

I don’t know why people keep telling Sandra the definition of a jump off. SHE DON’T CARE ABOUT A PROPER DEFINITION. If the woman marries a celebrity she’s a jump off PERIOD, accourding to SandraRose. Sandra lives in her own world of reality. It makes for interesting posts….which adds to the number of hits. Hmmm…. I guess Sandra lives in the real world of commerce. LOL

Sandra — are you REALLY a woman? I’ve never heard of a lesbian who hates women so much. Sometimes I REALLY think Sandra is a homosexual man. As a matter of fact, I’m almost certain.

OH BROTHER!!!!!!!! :eyeroll:

@ Smokie

Hmmmm .. Me thinks You are On to something here ….

@ Smokie … you just amy be right about “SANDRAROSE”
kpakpando

@ smokie but if the woman stays shacked up with a dude and keeps popping babies for him and he still refuses to marry her she’s good… unless she’s Kim Porter in that case she’d still be a jump off

Forget the JUMPOFF……….I’m stuck on R&B singer, huh??
hellava10

Is there something in the water? Did I miss a Waiting to Exhale II? What the hell? Although divorce is rough, it doesn’t pay to be unhappy–especially when children are involved. THAT’s why we need to fall back…stop all the shacking and hunching. We have all these babies and very few lasting relationships. You can’t turn a h.o. into a housewife, it’s a proven fact.

Smokie, I believe you are DEFINITELY on to something!

I’m sad to see this split. I didn’t see it coming. Mashonda is definitely not a jump off. She was a wife. not because a man is a celebrity and he’s with somebody that’s not necessarily a celebrity means she’s a jump off. Then you could say Jada Pinkett is a jump off because she doesn’t have nearly as much money as Will does…and we know she’s not a jump off. Regardless of the fact, I’m sorry that all these couples are splitting up and only wish them the best.

Men rarely wife jump offs

these two seemed genuinely in love and I am sad to see their marriage coming to an end

the term “jump off” is definitely being used loosely

how can she be considered a jump off when he always showed her much love

and the reason people keep explaining the meaning is because apparently we are all in agreement that she doesn’t know the correct meaning

call hoes jump offs-not the woman who he married and gave birth to his children-respect their union

class is something you either have or don’t-you definitely can’t teach that and it shows!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Krysi – yes the same one

too bad, so sad….NEXT!

SHE IS “A WIFE”
NOT A WIFEY, A JUMPOFF, A SIDELINE HO, BACK DOOR JODIE,
HOMIE LOVER FRIEND, A FREIND WITH BENEFITS, A HARLOT.
I CAN GO ON AND ON BUT WHY..THIS YOUNG LADY CARRIES HIS LAST NAME. ALL SAID AND DONE SHE IS HIS WIFE!!!!!

I’m sorry to hear that:)!!!

Isn’t Mashonda’s brother Capone (of Capone & Norega)?
I don’t think she was a jumpoff cause she’s been in/around the industry for a long time, I think it was a sincere relationship, I just think she got fed up with Swizz’s BS, cause he bird looking ass stayed trying to play somebody! She’ll be alright, keep it movin’ Ma!

i read in a vibe article i think looong time ago and i mean YEARS ago that she slept on the floor beside him when he had NOTHING and had hopes and dreams of beat making. now sandra be FAIR. that is not a jump off…..this had to be when ruff ryders first came out. i’m gonna google and try to find it. it was talking about the life of the guy behind their beats. which would be swizz….

I would have divorced his azz too if I had to walk around with that little azz purse in the pic.
pointhimout

i ddn’t know they were married til a couple years ago. i never knew y she was tryna sing cuz no-one knew or cared who she was/who she was married to.

They’re are kids now. You just get divorced? Now what. I respect the Africans (true Africans) belief and ideas as they relate to family. Once you bring these kids into the world, its no longer about you. How will this affect the kid? Whatever it was that cause you to divorce was obviously in place before you married. this is lame of both of them, or any other couple with kids and they’re thinking of themselves and not the kids.
terika83

I could have SWORE they just had a lil girl…NOT a boy…I guess I could be wrong though.
