Complete yourself!
Kymystry

i’m probably in the minority here … but It’s Because of her show… and Frankye and Neffe … that I will no longer support KCole .. and I like her alot as an artist …

I just can’t support Frankye and Neffe .. and since KCole is making it happen in their lives .. I’ll keep my lil 10 dollas .. thats about half a tank of gas now anyway

I can’t watch that show. Every time I catch climpses of it, I wanna punch Frankie in the her fake a$$ grill. She is so ignorant and ungrateful to Keyshia’s adopted parents. It’s disgusting!
Amulet

What?! Neffe is cool though.

I can’t believe John Singleton wanted to make a movie about her life.

John Singleton lost points. He must be desperate. Keyshia really was like, “yeah, yeah, I have so much people don’t know about me I can tell.”

Keyshia, please don’t tell us, we don’t want to know!

For some reason I really like that picture. It’s hawt! Her hair and that 1950’s zebra swimsuit, that is.

I like the show but I would have to agree with you all that Frankie and Neffe can be a bit much at times; however, the are truly a reflection of some our everyday lives. I was blessed not to have a drug addict parents, but I do have relatives that are no different from Frankie. Now Neffe is a tad bit disrespectful at times BUT I understand given the dynamics of her relationship with Frankie so I let it pass. Nevertheless I will continue to watch the show because it takes the reality of Reality Television to a whole new level:-)
Kymystry

Hermosa … I just can’t take it .. it’s just tooo much … too much screamin and hollering.. too much lettin a ex-crack-head now alcoholic have her shine … too much ghetto-ness (thats a new word like yours yesterday ..hoe-ness)
My mom’s gave me away when I was 3 days old .. so I can Partially relate to KCole … but I’ve not made “it” and I do know ALL my brother’s and sister’s by her .. and my dad’s kids … Neffe always crying screamin and hollering .. and that dayum puff the majic dragon lip…I just can’t
Amulet

Ummmm where did those laws come from Kym??

Keyshia does everything she can to help her fam. I have gained much respect for her. If that was my momma and sister…they’d be out on the street. That album needs to come out NOW.
JustSaying

The song sounds like everything else she makes. I will pass.
bloggergirlz

i haven’t listened to the song, but i applaud KC for always being on her grind…i hate to hear about folks who don’t write or co-write and end up BROKE…have you guys seen neffe’s new look?! why the hell does SHE have a stylist?! pure comedy right there…i still don’t like this pic of her, but whatev…
Amulet

Keyshia needs to do the following:

Law 16 Use Absence to Increase Respect and Honor

Law 25 Re-Create Yourself

Law 47 Do not go Past the Mark you Aimed for; In Victory, Learn when to Stop
Kymystry

DVine …. I googled them .. cause Amulet kept talkin about it …

Lawd shunda has rubbed off … lol .. lol
Amulet

After re-creating yourself, don’t go back to showing us the old you.
Amulet

They aren’t the Bible, just something man made up.

Cause I don’t agree with some of them. You’ll be a fool to believe everything someone says.
iscream

Neffee cries more than Mel from The Game. & Nef’s isn’t scripted.

I know I’ll get some nayesayers but….

Keyshia imo is not a strong singer live & the fact that she wants to change up her style from singing heartbroken, f u men songs is not the move. When my girl MJB did it she was already a well established artist & she even admitted that she lost a huge chunk of her fan base by doing it. I’m not saying she should stay cemented to those songs but if it aint broke don’t fix it.
& I agree John singleton played himself trying to do a movie of her life. I was like WTF? We see her damn life for free everyweek. Nefee freaked it in Trini yesterday. I couldn’t believe her ass did that split. They look like they had a ball!
Amulet

The more I see women cry on tv, I’m starting to not believe tears anymore.

When I see a woman cry in front of me, I always try not to laugh.
shunda

@Kymy
Ya’ll lucky I had to do some work because you know I was on my way to looking them laws up lol
Made4Success

…I think I’m done with the show as well, especially after last night’s episode. IMO, the show is not focusing on KeyCo but instead on Frankie and Neffe (who I lost all respect for last night.)

How in ‘da world you gon’ go from looking for a nice, private Christian academy, for your daughter to go to (Neffe looked drunk or high one, when she was meeting with the head of the school) TO doing da splits in Trinidad with no panties on?!?!?!? “I didn’t know I didn’t have any panties on…sike I knew I didn’t have any panties on.” WTF?? I gave Neffe the side eye on that one. That was nasty…she knew the dress she wore on the cruise was too damn short in the first place!

If it was really about KeyCo, then I would keep watching, but it does not seem to be going in that direction. I see a train wreck waiting to happen.

I hate seeing “splits” on the dancefloor, at the club. That is just so tacky to me.

They jury is still out on Keyshia’s live performance. I saw a clip that I liked but the BET awards was kinda iffy!!!

i am so tired of that album cover already. album ain’t even drop yet… “malibu barbie goes to the tattoo shop” is what i call it. or better yet “malibu barbie goes to oak-town.”

i am not even against ink but for some reason her’s irks me. i think it is the neck tat that did it for me.
http://myspace.com/erikamagaly Hermosa

A split in Trinidad????

OH MY GOD, I don’t fee like going there today MAN!!! Grown a$$ women with kids doing splits in the motha f*ckin club, DAMN SHAME!

No class having hoes!
melinla

I think the show is too much everything also. I heard somewhere that Frankie and Neffe are supposed to get their own show. Apparently from the last episode I saw – Neffe has a MANAGER and is writing a book.
And what happen to all her other kids? The only one I ever see is the little boy she was threating to abort. Maybe her older kids and Usher’s wife’s older kids are all in the same place…
Amulet

Neffe, did that spit!!! after how many kids she done had!

Hilarious!

Some of them laws is crazy – I wouldn;t be nowhere mear where I am if I had read and listened – I guess I just don’t need power

That split made me feel like sending her some Summer’s Eve. She is nasty on so many levels. I know people who don’t wear panties but I can’t do it
KAT

Nefee freaked it in Trini yesterday. I couldn’t believe her ass did that split. They look like they had a ball!
________________________________________________________

yes they did! i couldn’t believe neffe did that split either though….but i was LMAO!
i have grown to like and respect key co…especially since she has gotten rid of the ‘f u all’ attitude. she really had a hard life. she has blossomed right before our eyes too. i think it’s the black hair. much better look for her. i think she’s bitter over jeezy though. did ya’ll see how when she was going thru her clothes to give away, when she came across those man jeans, she was like “these are my ex’s…make sure you give these away” and flung those joints into the camera! lol!

DIVINEBROWN, “THE 48 LAWS OF POWER,” IS A BOOK WRITTEN BY ROBERT GREEN, MY BOYFRIEND HAS READ IT LIKE 3-4 TIMES. FUNNY THING IS I STILL HAVE THE “POWER!”
http://myspace.com/thegameoncw Bird

I didn’t get the impression that Keyshia is supporting her family 100%. She might help them a little, but I recall Frankie saying she was struggling to make it. And didn’t Neffie get a job last season? I don’t know if she still has it though. Anyway, I wouldn’t stop supporting Keyshia because of them. Not that I can talk. I have never bought a Keyshia Cole album myself, but I would if the music knocked my socks off.
shunda

Kymy why was I watching the 7 steps to a 720 credit score this morning. When dude said his book was 39.95 I was like o I bet somebody has it on the internet. I googled and I have almost all the steps. lol

@divinebrown and cutiechic

I totally agree, I like keyshia, and i love the way she reached out to all her siblings and went for her mother, I don’t care what we think about frankie that is keyshia mother, and she loves her despite whatever she did, and I admire it, it takes a strong woman to overcome adversity and then reach back to the main person who hurt who. I love it. and neffe is herself those people are real not the ones who fake and have yall thinking they angels. keyshia is def. supporting them because she gave them the start, that’s all one can do ,open up the door, and keyshia did that. I can’t wait for the album ….excuse any typos, suppose to be working.
toosexy

bought both of them and loved it.

**********************************

LMAO. Okaaay, it DID TAKE NEFFE a WHILE to get down there though! She had to EASE into the split…it was still nasty looking though!

CaramelDrop

y’all should cut Neffee and Frankie a little slack…TRUE the show is about Keisha but the title is…THE WAY IT IS… in a whole lot of house holds (ESPECIALLY IN THE HOOD)that’s just what that is…I KNOW Y’ALL ARE A BUNCH OF RICH SUBURBAN HEIFERS with maybe a couple of “clucks” or two y’all dont acknowledge but a lot of the sh!t Frank and Neffe do mirror’s what a lot of people deal with everyday…IMO i think that’s why the show is so popular…kinda like why most street niccas think that JEEZY is the realest rapper ever (bs imo) because they are hustlin and livin the life that he raps about…to the “t” that’s exactly what the appeal is about Frank and Neffe – most of us have to deal with “clucks” on a daily and frankly the mf’rs are funny. Hell if the show was just about Keysha (or however she spells it) it would be boring as hell and she would prob loose her fan base if they keep showing her trying to sing and dance live at the same time…..Neffe and Frank are hood…I cry with them when they cry…. you can tell they want to do better but dont really know how…giv’em some credit…

Especially credit frankie – she is a functional “cluck” and has come back from the land of the dead….HOW MANY TRUE “CLUCKS” HAVE YALL SEEN DO THAT? FOREAL? (BESIDES WHITNEY AND BOBBY)

I do give Keysha kudos for personifying family love and sticking in there through thick and thin.
http://www.myspace.com/lorettadivine DivineBrown

My problem with Neffe is she is perpertually stuck in a ghetto, overly aggressive mentality. Damn be rich and happy. Its like she fights getting her mental heath better.

I wanna tell her to shut the phuck up and get the phuck over it.
CaramelDrop

I think that Frankie is just jealous of the Adoptive mama because she (the adoptive mama) used to be a “cluck” but got away with it and Frankie didnt

I SO AGREE WITH YOU

Carameldrop…you used to be enlisted right?

BTW…I wasn’t raised in suburbia or the hood. My parents weren’t rich when I was growing up. I seen the struggle. Not like them but still
iscream

@ Divine Nef & them only had that money for a few years (if that) she been broke wayyyy longer than that. You can’t shake where you’re from just by changing your zip code.

& I guess I’m the only one who didn’t find ne thing wrong with the split. They were doing a battle dance (on a boat not a club) and the trini girl split so Nefee said oh yeah I can do that. They look like they had a great time to me & @ the end of the day that’s all that matters.

Did yall see Brothers to Brutha. I love that family bond they got going. Even if they are crazy as heck. & that uncle talking about the Def Jam guy “yeah I respect him.”.. You better he the one (was) cutting the check.

yeah divine i was in the army 91b combat medic three kids ago
http://www.myspace.com/lorettadivine DivineBrown

Toosexy…I agree with you. As adults, we have to accept responsibilty for who were are at a certain age. Her past will dictate her future. She has kids they are not living in the hood. But, they will mimick her behavior. So its a vicious cycle.

They have the money to talk to all the psychiatrists they want. That’s a good start. God will see them through.
http://myspace.com/iyonah iyonah

I can’t hear the song @ all but I actually like KeyCo tone as an artist and can relate to alot of her music.

I too agree sometimes the fam is OVERLOAD, but @ the same time, I think they do appreciate that they don’t sugar coat a thing and keep it real when in front of the cameras. I totally get the FAMILY dynamic of it all.

ON the show – I haven’t been able to catch it during the week – when do the repeats come on?
http://www.myspace.com/lorettadivine DivineBrown

caramel…do you like being out?
CaramelDrop

Frankie kills me with a new boyfriend every week – they are thugs too – youngins @ that. Pure comedy – Neffee be “handlin” all of them too! like she’s the mama…we are truly in the last days (sound like my granny hehe)
shunda

I do not think it was the split but the fact that she was talking about not having any panties on. I know people do that but ugh. I am very sensitive about down there. I don’t want any kind of germs floating near it.
http://myspace.com/iyonah iyonah

@ iscream (comment 18) – I agree w/ you, she isn’t well live (seen her once so far and tv performaces hasvne’t been stellar. I personally think that she can change up the songwriting a bit but not entirely, some of us still need the f u men anthems.

@ kym … can you email me those steps?
iscream

& what happened to Neffee’s job? I aint see her go to work one time or even talk about a day @ work this season. Talking about sending her daughter to private school. On whose account Keyshia’s?

That lady @ the school shut Nef down when she was like. Oh we encourage the parents to be involved in the process. Neefee was like Oh (deer n headlights)

Frankie @ least makes her own money doing appearances.
CaramelDrop

DB: not really but I dont have anyone that I trust to sign my kids over to…I do miss it at times
PAGESINADIARY

sounds okay but i could not get into the tupac song. i dont think she will top the last cd cause that one is a hard one to top!!
toosexy

@pagesinadiary

that last album was sic, I mean she straight clowned. I imagine it will be very hard to top that one.

@iscream

I think the show is her job also, you know keyshia got it hooked up. They(tv station) paying all them for that successful high rating show.

@iyonah

I think she said this one was going to be different. How is your beyonce cd, I know you were so hyped about getting it. Was it what you expected?
bloggergirlz

@toosexy: i agree…neffe and frankie are def getting paid something for being on that show…
iscream

@ toosexy they better be getting paid for that show cause they ARE the show. You don’t get to see the celeb side of Keycole outside of the house. She gave those clothes away lastnight & I kept thinking all them charity cases living in your house.. Them bitses must be too big to fit her clothes.

Everybody talking about Neefee but the fat sister was shaking her funky twat all over that boat as well.
bloggergirlz

i can’t recall who posted about frankie and neffe getting there own show, but i wouldn’t be surprised at all…
Kymystry

sorry for the delay iyonah .. i’ll send them to you … i had to go start dinner .. and I didn’t have any sofrito or salsa fro my s’ghetti ….
candycane

I was cool with the splits (Go Neffe) but when she said she didnt have on any panties, Ewwwwwwwwww so you bouncing yo’ naked coochie on the boat floor?! She better hope she didnt get any critters up her ish. That was DISGUSTING!! If you dont want to wear panties, then hooch on hoochie, but dont be dropping yo coochie on the damn floor! that people walk on! Come onnnnnnnnnnn Nef

OH WAIT!! did you see Nefee’s middle daughter was there on the ship dancing too.

Shunda – how you find the steps without buying the book? Im googling and nothing is coming up.

Good Morning Fam……

@Shay
search for 7 steps to 720
then start clicking through the sites. Some of the steps were on Amazon.

I love me some KC. She not the best singer in the world but she sings about things most of us can relate to.

As far as that family (lord the family)! Everybody in the family is ghetto. Did anyone pay attention to the cousins & fam that hang out at the house?? I mean, they don’t even try when the cameras are rolling. Neffe will have dishes in the sink, go outside in a t-shirt, her hair looking a mess. But when the show first started she was the same. I know KC informed her that she was coming with a camera crew & the house was nasty.

Frankie please sit down with these young fake thugs. They’re trying to gain 15 minute of fame off you. When the step mom was trying to bond & meet up with her & she kept saying she want to eat her popeyes chicken, I wanted to slip fire from her.

I think they’re now generating their own income from the show. If you guys paid attention, Nef house wasn’t hooked up. KC probably help her get it & told her to handle the rest.
