YouTube star James Wright Chanel‘s 15 minutes are winding down. Chanel became an overnight sensation when he sang the praises of Patti LaBelle‘s high calorie sweet potato pies. His ecstatic review helped Walmart sell over 1 million of the sugary confections.
But some say he’s doing too much.
Chanel capitalized on his newfound fame by filming a holiday special with Patti for The Cooking Channel and recording a solo single in less than a week.
But Chanel’s single was not met with the same enthusiasm as his Patti Pies review.
The cold hard fact is Mr. Chanel can’t sing.
It’s easy to queen out in your living room with an audience of one. But Chanel was clearly nervous about singing for his supper in a roomful of about 20 rapt listeners.
A video teaser released by The Cooking Channel to promote the holiday special didn’t fare any better on social media.
Chanel and Patti’s holiday special airs Wednesday on the Cooking Channel.
Will you watch?

He has a nice voice?? He needs a lil sex appeal. A little pizaz? Something special. I’d say play up the my head exist without a neck card, but Stephanie has that on lock? Anywayz, yeah, he needs a new gimmick. A sex tape maybe? Leak some nudes? Advertise a waist trainer on Instagram…Something…Otherwise he’s just like any other person with a nice voice and big breast??
Uh..we know this would happen cuz he is only known to Black folk… soo yeah he shoulda waited til after the Pattie Special..
Thanks for continuing the gay theme today?? But for your “negative post” I would know not of his single?? I’ll support and add it to my Tidal playlist??
Happy gay day??
Now you KNOW the day wouldn’t be complete without a Wut drama
So a co-worker who is slick really into me..(invites me to lunch we go to expensive places to eat. Pappadeuxs, Capers, Red Lobster(ok Red Lobster ain’t too expensive but still not ordinary for lunch) He just sent me a text to attend his Chrimmus party…Here’s the catch..DIS NINJA Married! I told him from jump I don’t do married men, he said he don’t mess around on his wife..but I have caught him watchin my azz when I walk in front of him. He notice anything different I do with my hair, compliments my heel game. One day shortly after the accident I came to work overwhelmed and started crying. One co-worker came and was sitting with me he came, sat there and just held my hand. In front of the co-worker. When the co-worker left he asked what was wrong stood up said everything is going to be alright and kissed my forehead! Once out to lunch recently Im on my phone talking to my sis about my 140 light bill, we stopped at Walmart he comes out with 7 20’s and say I heard your conversation, no need to return it. But he never actively put the moves on me..Question should I go or would not going offend my friend and he stop talking to me all together HELP!!
Lawd we found the one Tidal subscriber….give that gal a pie!
I just laughed that haaarrrd deeep throak laugh but yepppp!!!
He trying to be the next Big Luther or Nah…
???Not Luther but big Luther???
He’s not a good “live” singer, but neither was Whitney when she first started. With that being said, NO, I’m not watching the special, not buying no pie, and certainly not buying his music. He needs more training!
Wut what kind of pheromones do you have?
Jay Z will be happy to hear that.
He can’t sing? Yes he can. The only thing worse than a self hating black is a self hating gay (lesbian, trans, and other). All the shade towards LGTBQ (and whatever the hell else letters they claim these days) suggests YOU’RE the one with issues. Now go sit yourself down with the negativity chy.
EYE can not
He’s hilarious to me. I’ll support him(no more than 5 bucks though
)
He will just wait. He’s just fatning the hog up if ya know what I mean. Lol
She has them super duper, I wake up like this, every man must bow down pheromones. Yep. That’s our Wut of the Garden. ?
Vero DiMilo
ION want her to get randomly stabbed for accepting the grocery money
I think he should focus his energy on being a TV “personality”. He can be funny and he should just burst out singing occasionally more as a punchline, it’s cute. He has a solid voice but it wasn’t the voice that captured people it was the personality. I wish him the best.
He was horrible. I would never buy his single.
I support my people?? Even picked up a copy of Sheen magazine?? #BlackLivesMatter #BlackDollarsMatter #BuyBlack
#DTTSISFat
SR You forgot to *bam the desk*

???Cheap ass???
Lol!! I hope no one is surprised!! He’ll be forgotten once his 15 mins are over!! More power to him for trying to stretch that time out though
SR, show his whole outfit :crying1:
It ain’t cheap, if yeen got it
LMAO!
SR
Haven’t you seen his other videos? This cat is FunnY yo!
????
sounds pretty good to me
I need your playbook on how to get a negro in love without giving him the time of day ???
Apparently cause every week she has at least 2 dudes (1 of which is always ‘new’) chasing her.
We’ll have to sell some t-shirts for her next time.
She is so full of self-hate.
He has a great voice, but he needs to work on his breathing, phrasing, and timing. With that being said, in today’s market, he has no audience. James is fat, black, and effeminate. Three strikes. He’s out!
When I used to blog, I wrote an article explaining American Idol contestant, Jacob Lusk, would never be a star for those same reasons. I was right then, and I’m right now.
where majic son, they can be friends
Some people are meant to stay 20 feet from stardom, in the background or imitating good singers. Nothing wrong with that.
The jury in the Freddie Grey case is dead locked ??? if these ninjas start showing out tonight…
He does have a nice voice. With help, like a nutritionist, a stylist, a vocalist and the right manager he could go places.
Wow
Listen… I know I don’t know you like that butterummmmm
1) What kind of work do you do? The actual profession; teacher, IT, social work, etc. I’m trying to figure out how you have so much access to black men in your work place… I’m not even going to touch on how fine they always are. I mean in my particular profession, I am lucky if there is another black, let alone a man.
2) You know the deal…let’s be real. You have gotta be at least 30. You know that man wants some azz. Everything he has done has been inappropriate. Kissing your forehead…that’s some intimate ish. Paying your light bill. For why? If some random educated woman walks up and stabs you, we will know why.
3) The only reason y’all friends is because y’all ain’t fuggin. You don’t care if he’s stop talking to you, you care if he stops feeding you. I mean the fact that you had to tell the ninja, you don’t mess with married men says it all…
YSIC ( I stole this from someone),
Blaque M.
Benzino has “no neck” on lock. Lol @ advertise a waist trainer. Perhaps, he can change the game and advertise male Spanx and a man bra for moobs. He and Rick Ross can do ads and a single together. He can be the featured vocalist on a Rawse track. And at the end of the video, they can kiss on the mouth like Ross and Diddy do.
BBM pörn is also another alternative. I’m sure there are women with big man fetishes. He has many options. Palmer’s Cocoa Butter to prevent stretch marks on his stomach, as well as for his feet, so when he slides his chancletas on, his feet aren’t cracked and dry. Perhaps a Gold Bond endorsement for his feet, or Weight Watchers. He can show us his new “erms” post-weight loss. When he flaps his arms like MISS PAAAATTTI, he will have less flab than he had when he started.
stay yo asss far from him.,,.I almost slipped my panties into his back pocket reading this shii…lol nah seriously, if he is givin u his WIFE’s money he will surely give you her dyck..imo…i would back back!
Lol…
So over this for one day..I wish him the best tho…good luck bruh….. Patti doing to much with this…
if he is givin u his WIFE’s money he will surely give you her dyck..imo.
^^^^^^^^
Say that…and he aint shyt.
Magic son a sadidy skinny heaux now he wouldn’t be friends with him
The audio is so poor, I can’t even tell what the song sounds like. I already know he can sing though, that was obvious from the Pattie Pie videos.
OT: I hope this debate lives up to it’s full circus potential. But, probably not, the candidates that have a chance (if Trump backs out) are scared to say anything about Trump.
If you do go..take a date….if he try to act up once you get there…thank him AND his wife for the money he gave you to help you pay your light bill.
Um excuse me but, EyE have the BBM porn game on lock?? you should check out one of my webcam shows??
*Disclaimer: It ain’t safe for work, and damn sure ain’t free??
If this man is married, and you don’t do married men? Why do you keep giving this man the time of day? You work take care of your own bills, get a pay day loan! If you don’t mess with married men , you shouldn’t take money from them either. You should have never kept going to lunch and otherwise. Yes he is the one that is that is married, so that shows what kind of husband he is , but your integrity is your own, prove yours is intact. Give the money back !
I just realized his “last” name is Chanel ?
??? Wait, you wear panties?!?!???
1) AMEN. Lordt when they are black they usually shytty or only like Beckys. Rarely are they attractive and if they are they’re probably sleeping with everybody.
I don’t actually think he sounded that bad. It was NOT a professional recording session, the acoustics weren’t good, and he’s clearly trying to do the right thing by letting his cousins sing background. And, let’s be real – there are plenty of ‘singers’ out there who can’t even carry an auto-tune, so I won’t be too harsh on James this early in the game.
He better save his coins and not go on a major shopping spree! However I don’t see a thing wrong with cashing in. Take the opportunity while you have it…. We all know that Aunt Patty doesn’t play though so he better remember his place.
Amen. Or they are married/middle aged.
awww… say it aint so… (he may have to go the gospel route, huh?)
yes, he does have tons of personality.
ROFL!
child, find a way to ‘return’ that $140, stay ‘way from that porty, and don’t let him see you ‘in distress’ ever agane!
lawd Miany!
Maybe he can sing in church because I just don’t hear it…..ok bye !
If some random educated woman walks up and stabs you, we will know why.

If this were the 70s or 80s, James would have a shot. I’m a huge Sylvester fan, but Sylvester wouldn’t stand a chance in today’s musical climate. Today, the closest thing we have to an act like Sylvester is Ceelo Green.
Wut you are too smart for this. You know what he wants. It’s one thing to have an office friendship but it’s another to accept money from a married man. Don’t go to the party because it will be awkward and you don’t need to be in that position. Kindly decline and keep it a office friendship. Give him his money back and express your appreciation for his help but state that you can get through whatever you are going through. Never take your personal issues to the office. You don’t need office folks in your business.
Glad i finally caught chu in here Miss Chimney Sweep 2015. We found out the baby is a boy.I’m in flown blown Granny mode. I’m so ready to spoil his lil butt
Linda honey listen I had to read 3-4 Times.
That’s it. That’s who he reminds me of. Sylvester. ## goes out sanging You make me feel miiihhggttyy real## towels around looking for 2 tons of fun
FLEW AND FLOPPED. DAMMIT I WAS ROOTING FOR YOU…TRY SALES AND MARKETING!
(Waving my church tambourine) PREACH!
Awww Southern! that’s so awesome! I so happy for you hun! :hugs: :kisses: :holiday wishes:
Question should I go or would not going offend my friend and he stop talking to me all together HELP!!
^^^^^
Don’t do it, reconsider…read some liter-ature….
I’m just mad at that black onesie leotard and snow white flowy cardigan he’s wearing. ?
I think James needs some re-branding. shave that cockscomb off top his head. stop wearing those fly-church-mother outfits from Ashley stewart, and get him a well-tailored wardrobe. walk and talk like a man. and lay down some ballads. he might catch on
I used to tear some sh(t up on You Make Me Feel Mighty Real! Love, love, love that song!
You’d be even more upset if he look that “flowy cardigan” off.
I love Andre 3000!!!!
Bwahahaha! But…but…you know he is probably wearing a Waist Gang waist trainer corset. Lol.
LMAO
That’s because video killed the radio star. We used to listen to people on the radio before knowing what they looked like but now these weekly tv talent shows have convinced us that anyone with a mic can sing. Many of today’s singers should be glad they debuted after the creation of MTV where visuals distract poor audio.
In other words, morph him into the next David Peaston?
? Can I? ?
I wish I could find a dude in CR that understands my life but no connections yet.
I haven’t seen a pair of glasses like in the first pic since GUY first came out
What do you mean by understand your life?
I agree with you 100%! Personally, I don’t give a d@mn what a singer looks like, if you can “sang,” that’s all that matters.
When I was shelling out my hard-earned money for Stephanie, Anita, Whitney, Phyllis, Aretha, Gladys, Patti, etc., it wasn’t because of their looks, it was because of their talent.
Understands my work life and how crazy it can be at times
Pow. Pow. Pow. ???
Gotcha. I just hope you can find a black man..in CT…period
Now YOU know every qu…nevermind. He’s in the House of Chanel honey. ‘Tis all. ?
But WHY? This circus has carried on…ugh. Call a spade a spade! ~wondering if I can I say that and still be PC~
Oh. No.
Gazelles ????
Yeen know ??
Linda ???
No! There can only be one. That is too, TOO much going on with them together. Skinny and in full make-up, and Luther”esque” together? No…just no. I think it would make for a good bottle of wine and your favorite snack because there WILL be a good ole fashioned cat fight and plenty of quick one liners.
I’m only addressing the 1st two sentences in the first paragraph. I’m not sure if he was nervous or not, but he could work on some things.
Regarding him having no market, I would say with what is out here now he could stand a fair shake. No pun intended.
Maybe I’m tired, but he reminds me of a mix of Terrence T and that boy out of Toledo that was on Apollo and running all over Georgia in that corvette.
While I begrudgingly agree with you, that time has come and gone.
Lutheresque
???
Okay?
? I take it you all have met.
It was a typo. I meant CR.
Hopefully I’ll find a decent black man. I just met a dude, right after he asked what I was looking for he asked so do you have the 90 day rule. Say what now bruh? Bye. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/0a03f099ef6cf6d3062b6c5638c415b1950a2978da83edbe3d98f70115c848ef.jpg
Lmbo. He wanted to know. Lol. He can’t ask??
I’m gonna smack you with this handkerchief! You better say that! You done got my pressure up! Girrrrrrl….? Somebody catch me!
Say it four times…creep, creep, creep, CREEP!
???
???Sang Luther, Sang!!!??????
Hope they’re not Whitty Huton t-shirts or …nevermind.
??????????Shaaaaaaaade??????
I wasn’t ready for him to ask. I just met you that’s one of your first questions. I can tell you there’s no chemistry between us and I won’t be fawking you tuhnight. TUH
I remember when Hammer was wearing Gazelles back in the early 90’s.
He is so sensitive and attentive. Is he that generous with everyone?
~Scrunches nose because something smells~
You already know the answer. Why are you taking free lunches, money and kisses from a married man? And why are you sitting up at your job crying? Take your behind in the bathroom and get it together. Ain’t no married man handing you no bill money for nothing!!!!
I’ll put you down for 10. Thanks Lucy. lol
Anything is possible, but I doubt a record label is going to heavily invest in someone like James.
I think he has the potential …. but he need to take a step back and train his voice before he start doing concerts and shyt ….. Tamar syndrome …. he would sound wonderful in the studio …… but live …. is another story ….. there are some true hittas out there that he will be competing with ….. js …. ya gotta have something special about ya alone imo … if he passionate about singing then I say put in the work to develop his voice ….. if he just a queen in it for attention ….. you will surely fail sir
Ok so this debate is for the least popular GOP candidates ???
He is doing what’s he supposed to be doing: striking while the iron is still hot.
@DTTS. This coming from the person who buys CONDOMS from the Dollar Tree. #Hush Brenden.
@Brenden. Ummm…….please see below. All about you you you. Oan:dang i miss Pac.
Looking like he swallowed T-Pain…
You still got yours?
He nervous, Brenden gets like that in room full of people. Not singing of course, but simple simply flatulence. Nothing helps “roilaidz” “santac:….DTTS gave him some tea we got our fingers crossed.
I think i’s a STAGE name? Like @doesnttalk:disqus her name is DTTS Blue Lady of Night, but that’s not really her name.
HIDES in kona
He has personality. He should go the route Ross did from the tonight show and host.
Lol
He should do commercial jingles… Some red carpet interviews and stay/be humble.
SOS where is Mz Whang. Tell her I luh her.
Watching the Monday night LHHNY, are women moving toward of HAVING all of the breasts out. Nipples and all? This is just too much. FA Me
Why are Malfeasance and CandyYams in a condo. I thought they had signed a contract on the 50,000 sq foot house. SIDE EYE
I give her 2 years, but she get hot and bothered and get some brown suga and cinnamon for her Big Yams.
Peter and his 9th babymuvha man, you can’t We can be there for the kids is SOO Tiyad
Yeah I’m late
???A rubba is a rubba? And I miss Pac too…I see da same hoooooez?? I sing that song every time I read @Nancy’s font???
He has a big personality. He could definitely do television. I want to see him win.
I miss Mz. Whang too.
Haven’t seen you in a minute, well it’s probably me. I’ve been chilln. Resting.
I don’t want to hear him squealing about, but I stand by my previous comments. He should be working with or for Patti on some projects. No hate at all.
lawd, no it wasn’t

Who is his target demographic? Where’s the swag. This 2015, not 1968. He needs branding, that special oomph that makes him appealing to whomever he is trying to appeal to. Can’t just sing any more. You must be a total package.
well now, there was only one Luther… I just think he’d stand more of a chance if he was a lil less ‘fabaluss’
what ever happened to David? and you know who else seemed to fade away? Rubin! beautiful voice, but he never seemed to quite get fully established…. folks so fickle, Lol!
1968! Rofl!
(I said the same thing though, yep)
?? them and the ones that start with an E ???
I remember byke then my Bf didn’t buy me no shades and I politely packed his new shades up/along with his receipt and took joints back to the store and got me some shades AND THEN I dared him to get mad ??? #goodoledays
?? “tons”???Yeen slick??
well “loads” then… not tons…
Nan Nanny boo boo
??? as in wide? Queen of shade??????@NancyDrew
Same here, well not really resting but I have so much to do and no energy or incentive to get it done. I’m one of those people who are out there at the last minute shopping. Lol. I come in and read the posts and up vote the ones I agree with and laugh at the ones I don’t.
And if you’re a male singer, you better not have a hint of nutmeg or cinnamon in your batter. ?
David died several years ago, due to diabetes-related complications.
American Idol tried to market Rubin as a crooner, a “velvet teddy bear,” but it didn’t work. By the time Rubin came along, it was all about hip-hop and rap.
“The Donald” (Trump) doesn’t seem to be on top of his game tonight. Something seems off.
???
David Ruffin’s
Hey Boo, heeeey!
Esque, Chile. Esque. You know there is only one Loufa. Unless, you count fat AND skinny Loufa, then there’s two…I think.
As in personality ‘plus’
They don’t heavily invest in any of any of them anymore.
??????I hate you? Calling that mans personality Lane Bryant???
Dang I’m glad MJ set up CC, her ass was taking advantage … now I can relax and sip my Yogi detox tea ??
Lord! Shole did! I had forgot, bless his heart.
I’d still like to see Rubin give it another shot. He has real singing talent (but I know that’s not always enough to guarantee success nowadays)
B61366 GOT TO HIM
Smh
ThatAden me chuckle
Don’t even know why
So disrespectful… ( cackles softly)
How bout that day u gave that code away fir sunglasses. Noise was I mad. I forgot my cc. Lmbo
Congrats
The will locked up. City not playing this time.
Nite, you nuts! :hugs:
True; which means if you need to be made over, you’re pretty much dead in the water.
Remember the guy who won Oprah’s talent show, a young black dude with a voice like Luther’s? Sadly, I can’t remember his name and I did a telephone interview with him for an article I was writing.
I doubt Rubin will ever be a super star. The target black audience has abandoned R&B and white audience will only accept soul music if it’s coming from “Adele.” The whole situation makes me sad. ?
Bye Asy??
?????
Damn he paid your light bill> you can at least give him a little head for compensation.
Push through Luther 2015.
He just got a masters degree from Alabama A&M, and he released new music, so he’s trying.
What is his name?
Lose the spandex and cut that muppet Bert do he got going, whist he losing a 100 pound… Then put out a single. He pulled the trigger too fast. Pun intended.
Is Adele’s music really categorized as R&B? To me she has a variety of styles but the only thing soulful about it is her projection, she can sing loud. Unlike Amy Winehouse, Adele doesn’t strike me as someone who grew up listening her mama’s old R&B record collection.
Sorry, I was referring to Ruben.
welp there go his 5 minutes
I used to like him, but now he can go ‘head on. His 15 minutes were only supposed to be seconds.
Darn it! I really wanted to Google the guy who won Oprah’s contest. I can’t remember his name and I spent at least an hour talking to him on the phone, after he won! Oh, well… I’m glad to hear Rubin did well, academically.
Never.
Give him the money back and make an excuse to not go (already have plans). I don’t let men give me money unless they’re fam or he’s my man. Money confuses things.
LOL-See, this is men right here. Think you owe somethin’ even tho he GAVE her the money.
No, I used the code. Remember?! ??
Then found out the code could only be used Once *snorts*
The Guess shades
Chanel and Patti’s holiday special airs Wednesday on the Cooking Channel.
Will you watch?
=================================
No.
Me yass, going to watch, see how much she shade him. Come Mili, watch and let’s laugh together. Whispers u pay cable?
Just messing lol
TARGET AUDIENCE. Rhetorical right?
Old white racist, young white racits, live in the woods in breed racists, KKK, dumb wanna be Omarosa, couple of coons.
I just wanna know what he’s like and does him and Patti really get along lol
Either I was mad and laughed not until next day. Lmbo
I’m on my way to work watching Being Mary Jane. I’m so mad at the whole Cara and Marisol situation. Love Cara. Now that damn Niecey ….
Morning Quinn. I was Tew tired to view.. Will watch today. Loretto Devine is everything on that show. Cracks me ul.
Finally saw lhhny why these new ones do simple.
I think I would watch if he were on an episode of Chopped…and he got chopped after the first round, but I don’t know if I can stand to watch an entire hour show with him and Patti, unless Patti intends to shade him the entire episode, lol.
I’ll pay cable, you bring the food.
I love CC and her wardrobe. It was a good season finale. Out of all the franchises, the NY women do the damn most. Girl finds out bf marries side piece. Girl moves across country to be with a man that thinks her daughter is a dog. Girl gets pregnant by bf who marries side piece. Just way too much ?.
I don’t think that’s for Donald. I read that post a couple of times. Unless…did The Donald Duck sing last night?
Patti is ready to drop this guy like a bad habit ???. She’s doing this to appease the public who feels that she needs to cut him a check.
Recap please. My ass been missing it almost all season ON Tuesday. Then when I catch it I only watch snippets. The white BM called bro out about his drug use last episode I saw. He was like No I aint. ???
Then 5 minutes later after commercial he was like Jesus and fom-lee forgive meh. For I have popped some happy pills???
Hey u
I’m going to try to get that in today. I haven’t seen Being MJ for a couple of weeks amd have missed the season opener with Remy.
Season 3 is the best.
Whaaa? What’d I miss ??
+1. LHHNY got special place in my ratchet reality hort tho. Since it was the first. But they got a lot going on
This! !!!
? don’t be like that Mili. Big boys who wear gold-toe flats from the ’90’s need love too.
All. Day.
Hey woman!
I loved NY in the beginning with the mole Chrissy. But after Chrissy and Jim left and the ATL franchise took off the NY franchise had to take the ratchetness to another level to compete.
I’m just going through the history of the NY franchise ?
Whaaa? You aren’t doing the recap? ~starts dancing. looks @ you and stop~ ? sorry. It’s just that, although your recaps are…flavorfully sprinkled, I get lost. Luh you. Hold me?
Ohhhh ?
No! That dayum gravi is disrespectful. ~Ike Turner voice~
You know you the G.O.A.T. when it comes to recaps but I’ll do my best.
I ain’t watch it . That be one show I can’t catch. It interferes greatly with my basketball. So fugg Mary Jane hoe ass til like Wednesday, Thursday. ..if I catch it.
Holds you tight and rocks ya!
Murry Christmas New Year
Good Morning good people. I did not click the video, but I’m sure one of yall did, so can he sing or not? Anyway, I never catch Being Mary Jane. Last time I saw it the sister was having sex with her baby daddy in Mary Jane’s bed.
? Ok. Did you recap the boy that got suspended in the bball game?
Awww ~blows my snotty nose on the bottom of your blawse~ Thank you. Sorry. Happy New Chrimuh to you tooo.
Bet! Food and Cold Duck
BOL!!! (grabs the other end and shakes it together)
Jumps in your nerves arms. Hey low calorie suga. What’s popn
Last week PJ told Niecey he would help her get on her feet so she can stop being a damn burden.
Marisol reports Cara to the boss because of the comments she made about her sleeping with the fat white guy. Marisol says she’ll make it go away if cara gives her Mark show. Cara gives in but that bytch still reports her to HR. So there will be an investigation.
MJ tells the white boy she don’t want to date him anymore because she wants black love and she doesn’t want to explain to him what a kitchen is.
Ok. Gotta go. I can get a ‘Bush to rise and shine in this piece for nuthin’. Be back.
I was with you on everything UP UNTIL the point when you said give the money back! FOR WHAT!? If someone is stupid enough to give you money with no connections or strings I say take it! Consider it a charitable donation, or a tax write-off… (Gave you an upvote but TOOK it back!)
Offtopic as usual
This police man. A deceive of sex crimes was one of his own damn suspecrs. Shot and killed himself.
Northern Virginia crimes against children detective killed himself Tuesday when officers tried to arrest him on child sex charges, police said.
David Edward Abbott, 39, an investigator with Manassas City Police Department, refused to surrender and shot himself with a handgun in his home in nearby Gainesville, according to the Prince William County police. He was pronounced dead at the Senea Dr. residence, WUSA-TV reported.
Abbott, who served on the Northern Virginia-Washington D.C. Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, once requested a warrant to take pictures of a teen sexting suspect’s genitals. He had been wanted Tuesday on suspicion of indecent liberties by a custodian and use of a communications device to solicit sexual offenses.
The the dumb police department went on to say. He was great guy he arrested many people on behalf of children. His damn cohorts
. .he probably had swapped kiddie porn with them. He is where he needs to be. God forgive me.
TTYL

Right. smdh. Mind you the little baby should be able to see her brothers and be with them, but…that living in the same building stuff is too much. smh. But Amina Luh him.
Meme81.. That money has been used. I can return it to him Friday though.
The people chile … the ones that hounded Patti
Good mornting
88..Cut…it..OUT!!! LOLOL aint nobody given stranger head in this piece ROFL!!
Burn in hell sir
Morning!
I had my office door cracked. My door was closed. He knocked and came in before I could get it together.
I don’t know Unita, He and I came to this place at the same time and we just became friends from that point on. He doesn’t talk to anybody much and neither do i so I can’t say.
Ain’t that much love in the world. Especially for a dirty foots like Peter.
He looks like the type , piece of shit.
ROFL!!! You right! Women know their men and if I go and he gives the slighted hint that he feeling me..shyt may pop off..
I like James and all but how many mo times he gone scream Patti’s name! Geez….
? on my ownnnn
Anybody watch the debate last night?
Your right. It wasn’t meant for him to see me cry he just knocked on my door and entered before I could get it together. I put the money on the bill. but I will give it back to him Friday.
True I didn’t mean for him to see that. He opened my door and caught it. I couldn’t hide it.
if anything he can write or sing hella commercial jingles.. but the song was a very far jump so soon… IMO lol he can go chill somewhere
The thrill is gone
It was watching me because I fell asleep.
She is finding it from someplace. I kind of feel bad for her today. She can’t win for losing.
Yaas,?
This was goodt
Who David ill?
I am. I was stunned it happened. He and I started here at the same time and we are the only ones we really talk to. The population here is 98% men and 2% women, and we are among about 5 upper level blacks..in this building. So I thought it cool we hung and complained at lunch about the things we go through. It has never been suggestive he has never touched me inappropriately (I did catch him looking) but no advances. I guess thats why I thought it was cool..but I see that if this was my husband lunching with a woman coworker, I would feel some kind of way. So your right
OHHHH shyt you a shyt starter LOL… But that is smart. But Ive decided to not go…and save drama
Your right Miany.. Imma chill I think well I thought we had a true friendship cuz we started here together, but I see your point.
Jeb can’t stand Trump.
Cruz can’t stand Obama.
I hear crickets when Carson speaks.
Trump has mastered the technique of avoidance.
Christie said he’s about that life.
And o’ girl (forget her name) wants her voice heard.
That’s all I got
New Post – JD
Dayum raw and real! I honestly thought we could just be work friends. No there aren’t many Black men on the corporate side here..there are a ton of black men in the factory however. He and I are like among the 5 upper level blacks in this company so we gravitated to eachother since we started together and had been lunching every since. But I get what you are saying.
LOL I don’t think he in love.. I just thought he was being a good friend we started together and we are the minority in this office only about 5 black people so we started hanging.
LOL you think. I don’t fall for the banana though.. I was thinking if the fool wanna peel bread let him..but now seeing the comments it was wrong taking it from a married man.
Christie about that eating life.
It’s called ARTIST DEVELOPMENT.
They dont do this anymore, and it’s much needed in his case.
He needs to start as a BACK UP singer, to get a feel for the industry, and work on his voice. He may even get a voice coach.
He CAN SING.
His “stage presence” – they need to work with him on
Even Bieber did 6-8 months behid the scenes before Usher put him out front.
.
I
I did my best thank you ?
What sis? I thought I said something about my co worker looong ago when I first started this new job. We have been friends. I guess I been blinded by his long game… Libra said she fattening the hog for the slaughter… it makes sense…
Artist Development 6-8 months.
Back up some superstars, get a feet for the industry.
It’s too soon for him to be putting out a single!
I get it hun, and that wasn’t meant to sound ‘judgy’ …just saying you/we need to deal with married men the same way we would deal with a crack head holding a loaded gun – Run Bish! LOL!
Looks like they tried to launch his music career in my spare bedroom. Which is cool cause we wasn’t using it. Nice voice though. Wish him well.
*cries sooty tears* :sadface:
That man can sing. Idk what y’all talking about.
I can’t remember the Oprah guy’s name either! I agree about Rubin not being headed for superstardom, but I would like to see the Brother at least be able to earn a comfortable living doing what he loves and using his gift. (I’d be quite saddened to see him on Unsung and learn that he’s now the minister of music down at the house of prayer on sunday, singing at cabarets on Saturday, and working as a skycap m-f.)
you are turrible!
He rich ex, that she was dating, got pregnant by but had an abortion. They both weren’t ready. Now he got a baby by a YT lady. She at one time and did a ghetto baby egg freeze in her maytag stainless steel standup fridge that is located in her kitchen. I think the frozen SPERm was next to some icecrem and peas. PRessed.
But she ended up getting rid of the rich man sperm, cause her hating has girlfriend who WAS/Is a Dr. Told on her. She was single and with no kids. She was pretty but had a hangout cause she said her mother husband, not her daddy but his thing in her. Then Mary Jane found out that her Dr. girlfriend had a crush or kept a crush on David, cause I think she me him first. Well not sure when but that Dr. Lisa had sucked David peen. He is attractive, but he thin and lean, not sure how much he packing. SHRUG.
Well Mary J was but dialed by David when he and Lisa was talking about how she sucked his peen and MaryJ overhead it. Knowing Lisa sucked his peen upset her so bad, that she wrecked her car (she had been drinking) She stay drunk….Well Lisa tried to apologize and Mary Jane would not accept her apology. So Lisa Killed herself. You know I don’t like editing….But you get it.
Men do only what is allowed. Case closed. If you are concerned with him being married and understand he is interested in you…you wouldn’t be going to lunch…and most importantly entertaining the attention. It’s really that simple.
Thank you! Let’s stop playing coy. The behavior is inappropriate. People need to learn to stop playing games with others. Why on earth would you accept money…allow him to kiss you on the forehead. If you wouldn’t do this in the presence of his wife..then you should know the answer to the game playing. Please!
For the sake of my bladder…please change your profile picture!! Lord!
he can sing BUT i don’t think it was the right way to try launching a singing career. IMO.
the trill was within the pie *cries in sweet potato*
He’s gay. He has no SEX appeal.
That is a good barometer. Would you engage in the behavior in front of the person’s significant other. This situation aside, I am going to have to incorporate that rule of thumb. Simple but profound.
That’s what I mean. Repay him his coin
That way he has no misunderstanding about where you stand.
I just busted out laughing hard Drewski (HUG) I just declined lunch from him today…
Thank you! It really is simple. No matter how attractive you may be…your demeanor should always be of a respectful manner. Especially in a professional work environment. She mentions they are few of the elected blacks in upper management, but your behavior doesn’t display that. Most women, including myself who are in higher up positions, don’t even entertain such foolishness. I’m not about to lose my job over some community penis. Most likely, people are already watching you because of your position in company.
*blank stares at you through smutty gray lenses*
LMAO!!! If my memory serves me correctly…she was caught trying to slither down chimney to her lover.
Who is his target audience?? Ain’t body checking a Luther knockoff. He could be a great backup singer though.
Dude can sing.
This young man has a very powerful voice. I honestly don’t think he sounds like Luther at all. He should seriously consider singing gospel because his voice is very powerful. I wish him success in whatever he does. We have to do better in supporting one another instead of tearing each other down. Heck my motto is if a door close kick that mug off the hinges. Do what needs to be done respectfully that is to get where you want to go. If singing about some pies worked for him kudos to him.
He can sing.He and his band have been performing around LA for a minute .Also check him and Patti out on Steve Harvey Show today
lol…. STOP BREN!! I usually dont wear em but you see me tryna dish out wholesome advice… I wear panties when Im tryna be wholesome.
that’s correct. (you never forgot your key before?)
???Oh ok, the wholesome side of Miany? gotcha, cuzz I was like the Miany I know, the ain’t afraid to deep throat a dîck and let another chick straight lick the clît…You don’t know Nan nan nan??????
LMAO!!
The old luther was big tho
Brian McKnight was recently on Tavis Smiley talking about the industry changes effecting “black artists.”
One point he made was that rappers are considered “R&B singers” by some consumers and real singers are being ignored.
Sadly that’s true here in the states. I also thought how ironic it was that you mentioned Adele and how she’s considered ‘soul’ because in the UK they revere soul/r&b. Every now and again i’ll luck up on a podcast compiled by a young Brit DJ and the playlist is full of ‘Our’ music. They respect the music and its historical impact on the music scene worldwide. Those young yt boys know about Motown, Stax, Atlantic, Epic records, etc. (And Michael Bolton and Elvis are NOT in the mix.
)
HE can sing. He was just foolish to rush it though.
PBS interviewed an African-American woman for a documentary on Chicago’s south side neighborhoods. The woman said she used to perform with Koko Taylor, a Chicago blues legend. The interviewee stated that the majority of patrons who paid to see Taylor back in the day, were white.
What do you mean he cant sing? Are you crazy? He can clearly sing and will blow any of the wimoy white so called r&B singers off the planet. puhleeze
Not surprising. Even DuBois and others of the Harlem renaissance were rumored to have regarded jazz music as ‘gutter’ music and openly favored yt classical music.
That’s right! I forgot about that!
He’s grooming you. Be careful, girl. That’s how they suck you in. Keep your eyes wide open, cause if you blink, you’ll find yourself being the side chick.
I refuse to say his name as “Chanel”….it’s ” Channel” to me…
I don’t know you personally, but you gotta keep it pushing. Because he is a married man, period and clearly he’s looking for something. Maybe you are a reflection of what he wishes was waiting for him at home. This situation could backfire on you, especially since the two of you also work together. Leave it alone before it gets too deep.
Do NOT go!
But, by all means, PAY OFF ALL YO BILLS!!!
But you take the strangers $$ tho LOL
But you take the strangers $$ tho LOL
lol….cant stand you
He better continue to let patti parade him around while she’s hoping we’ll forget she said he didn’t help her pies sell ? he can sing but I’m not interested in his music like someone else said he should try back ground singing for patti or someone
He actually sounds good, he may be just a tad bit nervous…..probably some voice training will correct some of the minor flaws…I hope he makes it!!
That woman at the beginning has to be the worst promoter ive ever heard in my life and an even worse hypeman. She done bored everyone to death and killed the mood
You can be gay and still have sex appeal. (Ricky Martin back in the day comes to mind). Granted, James doesn’t have it but plenty of gay guys do. Get a clue.
