Thanks to loyal reader Brian over at HipHopBlog for this follow up to my post about music producer Jermaine Dupri’s veiled threats to end my life over a blog post that he didn’t like.
A friend who was on the line – a local club promoter who heard the whole thing — defended Dupri’s actions with the excuse that Dupri was drunk after partying the night away in France. Dupri did not sound drunk to me. His speech was not slurred. His words were clear and precise.
He wanted me to know — over and over again — that his goons were ready fuck me up and/or even kill me, to protect his little rep as the honorary mayor of Atlanta. All of these threats of violence were made over a blog post that hit too close to home.
Here’s what Brian and Rocky Williform (pictured above left), the founder and editor-in-chief of HipHopBlog.com (formerly T.I.’s StreetCred.com) had to say:
If these allegations are true, the entire blogosphere should be outraged and Dupri should face litigation. “You’re talking about the Internet blogosphere, so you’re talking federal statute,” says HipHopBlog.com’s Rocky Williform. “What he did amounts to a terrorist threat.” Bloggers should be able to blog without fear of violence from individuals who don’t like what was written about them. Of course, if one is reading something about themselves that they don’t like–or that they believe to be untrue–they have a right to react. “There are civil remedies for when you disagree with someone or you feel someone is slandering you,” Williform says.
“Would he have called [TMZ’s] Harvey Levin like that? Would he have called Rupert Murdock at Fox News?” Williform adds. “New media should be outraged and should send a message to Jermaine Dupri that this kind of behavior cannot be tolerated.” Because the Internet is international commerce, Dupri could realistically face charges under federal statutes, meaning that instead of Rose’s attorney, he could possibly face U.S. attorney Sally Yates of Georgia’s northern district.

I’m curious why you haven’t released “the tape”? that “threat” alone would get you massive hits and link backs so why didn’t you release it again? Did he really make all these threats you are accusing him of? you even said that the other person on the line defended him.
Though Sandras post was harsh it was true.what hot albums have he produced since confessions? Oh I’ll wait.thought so. Janets album was a flop that nelly crap was a flop that oceans thing was a flop and that last bow wow album new jack city. I live in atlanta I don’t hear jd and he’s not as big as he was I have yet to hear dondrias new single on any Atlanta radio station .he should just grow up and find something else to do. Like make more YouTube videosof grown men sleeping.
Wow! Rocky is cool peoples. The article must of hit a raw nerve,even if it’s true never let no one see you sweat. You can say a lot by not saying nothing at all. I would not post audio either, save that $hit for the courts so nothing can be said as being bias because the whole world done heard it too. Give more reason for the defendants lawyer to have the audio thrown out of court.
Yeah release the tapes people will Chris town him.
I hope this situation gets resolved
I think JD would have done better just releasing a statement or refraining from saying anything. Sure, people get mad when you talk about them BUT he showed his azz more in the telephone call than anything Sandra wrote.

Ms. Sandra I went back and re-read MOST of the comments and I GUESS that Outwardly & Proud GAY Females are just the Scourge of the Earth because I’m QUITE SURPRISED at the AMOUNT of FEMALES that care nothing about THIS Menacing-Acting MALE MIDGET’S Behavior-n-Actions towards you (Actually AMAZED…)
I KNOW I represent the absolute SMALLEST demographic of YOUR Readership which is 100% Straight MALES so I Don’t expect NOBODY TO AGREE with My Assessment (Real…)
Dang. JD. He really has lost his mind.
i am so over this story but now i think sandra needs to leave chris brown alone because at least hes not making death threats and she goes harder on him than any other celeb she dont even trash tamika anymore
I still say he went too far but I understand. By any chance is the club promoter AG?
if so I think there is way more to this
Sandra, how come you won’t release the tape for us to listen too?
Anyways, the Ocean 7 put out a mix tape NOT an album, and btw it was Fire!
@elove
I’m really surprised at your antics; you think females that are defending JD are gay? Seriously? just like you have an opinion we all have one but you don’t have be so malicious and down disrespectful, if you gay do you, but I’m certainly NOT!
#thatisall
Hopefully they can resolve this. No matter how angry a person is you can not just go around breaking the law (making death threats). Take it from someone who barely and I mean barely got away for telling someone over the phone that I was going to get them and almost catching a case in Cherokee County for doing so and I didn’t even mention the word death. It is ILLEGAL to do so!!
I agree that he has a right to feel some kinda way about what was posted but he was dead wrong for going ham and making death threats and crap, and to a woman at that! He is a punk for that ish, and this is coming from a JD FAN! Sandra you shouldve said ” Who gone check me Boo?”
Best thing i can say is stop talking shi! about people and only print the truth, not just about JD but all people then you should be alright!

Exactly!…….but I just want to add that I like JD and even though he is not doing much right now, he has put out some major hits in the past that I still play! And I guess I am in the minority, but I loved the Ocean 7 mixtape, but it still dont change the fact that what he did was wrong. Some straight b*tchazzness at its fullest
@mizzdallas
YOU READ my comment the WRONG WAY…
The ONLY PERSON I stated was GAY was Ms. Sandra (Real…)
NOT The Females readers who SUPPORT JD Antics-n-Actions !!!

Are you saying that you’re amazed that females aren’t getting all upset over what he said to her?
First off no disrespect Sandy but this is hear say. We have not gotten both sides of the story. While I don’t agree with name calling whether it’s a man calling a woman out her name or vice versa, you have to be willing to take the good with the bad. It’s not just celebrities being attacked it’s whoever she feels like attacking. She is protected by the 1st ammendment. He did make a threat which is assualt. A terroristic threat would be if she was scared by his threats and feared for her life. He has threatened to do bodily harm. But you posted it as soon as it happened which would tell a police that you were not fearing for your life but yet again looking for hits on your blog for residuals.I don’t know Sandy, choose your battles lightly because he can say that you slandered his name if they find that what you said or that he deemed it as a lie.Both are/can be against the law civil or criminal charges can apply to both. I’m just saying…
^^^
I’m amazed AT THE AMOUNT that aren’t …
I think it was AG too. She bragged about going to his bday party and now this. I won’t excuse his behavior because it is deplorable. On another note, he said if you buy TEN, yes TEN Dondria albums you can get backstage passes for two to meet her at a concert in your area. I asked did that include tixs to the show as well he replied you ever had backstage passes? I was like no, he didn’t respond. If I can meet Trey, yep, but just her, nope. Hint: you can go to Amazon, “purchase”, print receipt, then cancel order.
Why are two grown azz men calling up at female at 11 pm on threeway? Sorry Sandra, but if it went down like that, your friend is dead wrong for even calling you up with that mess. If he’s now saying that JD was drunk why did he even call you up knowing that JD was already riled up? That’s some instigating mess right there.
at = a, oops
this shyt is getting better than Y & R…and THAT is my show!
I’m amazed at the fact that its that shocking to some that all women don’t subscribe to the notion that a woman can do or say anything to a man and if the man responds or reacts in anyway that makes him less of a man or a b.itch. Don’t start stuff that you aren’t prepared to finish simple as that and then maybe situations like this could be avoided. And that doesn’t mean anyone who hasn’t jumped on Sandras side feels that JD was right in making “death threats”. Simply put, she started it and he lost his cool. That’s the same mentality that makes little girls think they can punch kick and fight a young man but the second he loses it and snaps then they wanna call the police, their big brother and everybody else and try to ruin the mans life. And honestly, I have a feeling it was Alex Gidweon (sp?) who was the “friend” who called her and when you consider that JD djs or helps promote almost all this dudes parties (his main source of income I think) and how much money is spent on advertising and promoting on this site, for that post to come out was probably a major slap in the face. I’m guessing there was a convo where she was asked to retract her statements based on a conflict of interest, she refused, an argument began and ended with the alleged threats. No disrespect but I hate when women play the victim to garner sympathy for themselves and hate for the other party anytime that it is convenient for them but refuse to take any responsibilty in the dispute, argument or fight. Ish like that sets all women back, it doesn’t make us stronger and it doesn’t unify or uplift us and I really take offense when my motives or womanhood is called into question simply because I choose to look at all sides of a story and wait for proof before jumping headfirst into support for another woman especially when that other woman is wrong. And finally, I have to question any man who would willingly demonize the next black man without knowing all the facts based off a story written by the “victim” knowing that the same could happen to him should he ever lose his temper with a conniving woman who has pushed him to his breaking point…
Right @ Kwall……we could call it as the blogosphere turns.
@ civil
Who made the 3 way call?
Did he (JD) give you permission to record the call? Its illegal to record someone without their consent, at least in NC
Do you still have your bodyguards?
Has this incident made you reconsider/re-evaluate how you report things on your blog?
What legal steps are you taking other than speaking to your lawyer?
Just things I am curious about….I am not condoning ANYONE making threats. But Sandra be careful. I am glad you aren’t taking this lightly.
But the person who made the 3 way call has me feeling side ways, this person KNEW, JD was pissed and was going to “get in ur shat”…whoever made the call sandra please re-evaluate your “relationship” with that person…If the person has your number, they know how you look so they could have “met you for lunch” and something went down….this person knew that wasn’t going to be a friendly call
oh sweet Baby Jesus, the plot thickens! @SouthernPrincess are you from NC if so what part? Not trying to be stalkerish just want to know cause I am from there
I don’t know who dude is with the Vulcan ears and the alien sized hands is, but I can say this…. I want to hear the audio! If he admitted to knowing the conversation was being recorded and continued to talk, he then consented to the recording. NOW I wanna hear it.
@Ms. Everything (comment #24)
I’m going to ASSume that the any man was referring to me…
I’ve had FAR WORSE things done to me BY FEMALES (in particular MY BM and MY Ex-Wife…) than THIS MIDGET-MAN had done to him by Ms. Sandra… I REPEAT — FAR WORSE !!!!!
From trying to have me arrested for STR8 BULL-SHYT I didn’t even do, To Identity-Theft, Stealing from Me, Trying to harm My Daughter when she was very young JUST to name A FEW… And THESE ARE THE VERY REASONS I choose NOT to side with THIS FOOL-AZZ NEGRO (MF-ing REAL…)
Of ALL of the things to loose your Cool over… THIS IS THE THING He chooses to LOOSE HIS COOL to the point of THREATENING SOMEONE’S LIFE ?!!?
My Strength-n-Knowledge regarding this scenario is I KNOW the difference between A LOSER-AZZ MALE FOOL and A REAL MAN… GUESS which ONE JD is !!!!!
hmm I’m thinking AG was the club promoter!
I just don’t understand how people are justifying JD’s death threat. If people reacted to every little thing said about them the world would be a horrible place. I have had things at my university circulated about me and I never thought about threating anyone’s life. JD reacting just shows how low he has stooped.
As far as people saying women feel as though they can say anything to a man and not have a reaction.I don’t care what a woman says about you should have enough sense and class to react in the fitting manner. Sandra didn’t say anything people in Atlanta haven’t been saying for a while now. If JD wants people to stop talking about him, he needs to put out a hit and prove that he still has it. He needs to get off his high horse and come back down to the ground!

I think my threat was considered a terroristic threat because it was a non-living building (a store) with other people in there that I called, even though I specifically spoke to ONE person and told that ONE person I was going to get them it was still considered one.
Reading Sandra’s post about JD was definitely salty and mean spirited but she worded it with words like, “according to this blog, it is rumored, insiders say, some say, those around him say” etc… along with some spiteful opinions. She knew exactly how to word that post!!!
Oh I reread this post, he was drunk? I know I have said and done A WHOLE LOT of shyt when I use to get drunk.
It still doesn’t take away the fact that what he did was illegal. Sandra maybe you should just take down the posts and deal with this privately!!

Mr. Rocky Williform,
assuming the picture of you above is recent, how much did they pay you to pose with the illuminati hand gesture?
Oh I know all of the poses, signals, symbols, and all that. This particular pose is a favorite of the big-name pastors and bishops.
WE ARE NOT IGNORANT OF SATAN’S DEVICES.

And something else…. Sandra will come out of pocket on someone, thats for sure…but look how she words stuff…she NEVER acts as if she has first hand knowledge (unless its tiny, monica, and ti) she ALWAYS states “a source, close friend, an insider, etc.
And she will throw her opinon in there
Sandra covers her asrse that is for sure…get mad, threaten her, carry out your threat but you wont be able to sue her…LOL
@kwall….hey chica

how is the absence of w.o. (wee one) gonna impact this blog? cause hot song or not…money in his bank account or not….he DO be summa errywhere. questions questions sandra mae lynn rose.
Did you go to any conclave events this weekend
—————————————-
@38 didn’t go to any “formal” events but DID hang out with some of my friends and fam this weekend who are omega’s from ‘bama and had a BLAST!!! them dudes KNOW they can spend some $$$$$….shew!! going out again tonite…i think. i had to come home and dry my liver out! lmao….
Instead of talking about all the charges J.D. could be brought up on, why not just do it!! If Dude feels his life is in danger he should contact the Feds.
Elove, you should be commended for your exquisite self control but you should also know that not everyone is that mentally strong to be able to control themself when they are being attacked for no reason. And right now, all of this, including today’s update, is all based on Sandra’s account of what happened. She hasn’t posted the audio which would provide undisputable proof that he did indeed threaten her life, she hasn’t filed a police report because another news site or blog would have already reported on that by now, everything is based off a one sided account from the “victim” in this who is the one who actually threw the first blow so to speak. I’m not saying he was right (if this is all true) it’s never ok to threaten someone’s life but I am saying there comes a time when everyone, male or female, needs to mature and realize that you don’t attack people, verbally or physically, for no cause and not expect some type of reprecussion. The funny thing is that it was only 2-3 days ago on this same site that the comments were focused on grown ass women starting fights that they can’t handle and then running around trying to find someone to help and how people couldn’t stand people like that. Not to mention all the comments that same day about the things they have done as women to get back at men who’ve pissed them off in one way or another (destroying clothes, pissing in shoes, etc) and nowhere in any of those posts were the outraged responses, the calls of immaturity and bytchassness and all the rest that JD is getting for something that none of us have any proof of him doing. Is it because all the previous comments were from women and about women so it’s somehow different because he is a man? Or is it because the other actions committed in anger were from a woman to a man instead of vice versa? Why is there this huge double standard where women are considered emotional creatures who can get away with acting out in anger against the opposite sex but men are expected to never do so? Me personally, I’m not gonna start a fight be it verbal or physical with a man or a woman that I’m not sure I can finish period. Sandra, threw the first blow in this argument/fight of theirs with that post from the other day. I dont care what anyone says about growing a thick skin and whatnot, words hurt. Sometimes words can cut worse than a blade and most people (not you of course) have lashed out when hurt and done or said things they shouldn’t have. Many people were on here just a couple days ago admitting this but now it’s outlandish and a sign of immaturity and lack of manhood.. okay I guess if you guys say so but I’m not buying it. If this is all completely true (and that’s a big IF)I doubt he actually has plans to hurt her and if he does he deserves whatever punishment he receives BUT this needs to serve as a lesson to Sandra and other bloggers who tend to post negative things just for attention or whatever that this can happen when you mess with the wrong person on the wrong day. I will not though and can’t understand how so many of you can sit here calling this man out his name for something that you don’t even know is true, nor do you know what was said on Sandra’s end to him during that phone convo that led to him saying what she says he said. Until she posts the audio or files a police report, I’m not about to go in on this man and call him outside of his name period
ok @SouthernPrincess I am your next door neighbor. I grew in Durham, I miss NC so much
Its always good to meet people from home!
@Ms. Everything
I’ll admit that I’m taking LIBERTY with ASSuming that Ms. Sandra is BEING Completely forthright & honest about this incident AND to be completely honest I’m NOT enamored at all by HIS past musical success … He’s JUST ANOTHER CAT who found a way to make some money within the Music Industry IMO Nothing MORE, Nothing LESS
My PERSPECTIVE about this incident (IF TRUE…) is Ms. Sandra along with SIMILAR Working-n-Getting Paid Individuals within this Music-Entertainment Industry are NOWHERE NEAR AS INTRUSIVE as The Paparazzi or The International-Foreign Press (Just Being Real Here…)
As far as the Sometimes words can cut worse than a blade… Does this suppose to apply to STRANGERS & NON Personal-n-Close Friends saying something negative or disparaging about you ?!!?
And calling people Out-of-Their name is a way of life FROM relatives giving you Nick-Names that YOU NEVER EVER WANTED or DESERVED… I have a younger brother who Nick-Name is BOO-KEE **LOL** TO Doing-the-Dozens when I was a Kid TO Real-n-Genuine FRIENDS calling each other names in a Purely Joking Manner (Real…)
AND YES I do understand the MALICIOUS ASPECT that you’re singling out BUT AGAIN their not doing this IN YOUR FACE or Directly in-front of Your Family-n-Friends AND these are INDIVIDUALS that share no Real Personal BOND WITH YOU… So WHY should whatever they say be taken TO THE HEART & BE SO DEVASTATING TO YOUR PERSONAL PSYCHIC

You better preach!!
Celebrity bloggers should take some responsibility for some of the “ish” they dish out. Celebrities have feelings too. And most of you (both bloggers and visitors) would have gone postal by now if you were in their shoes reading insults or harsh critiques concerning your livelihood, physical appearance and personal life on a daily basis.
Negativity begets negativity. You reap what you sow.
Ok, so let me see if I have this right. Shame on bloggers for insulting celebs, but it’s okay for commenters to have open season them? I’m confused. When readers, on a regular basis, go hard on celebs, I don’t read many complaints from other readers about how hurt they might be. So, bloggers must not voice their opinion (right or wrong), but the readers of the blog can? How come no one comes to these celebrities’s defense when readers go hard on them?
I’m willing to bet that if Sandra changed her style, there would not be many readers visiting this site (and please don’t call me a butt kisser because I have nothing to gain or lose). There are readers who have either be subscribers or lurkers for a long time (including me) so people know how Sandra gets down (even the celebs).
Yes, words hurt. Hell yes, they do, but again, and if something is said that is slanderous, then go through the correct methods to correct it. Dammit, get angry if you want. I’m not saying being mean is okay, but again, people are going to be people whether you like it or not, and all the complaining in the world isn’t going to change that. So yes, you have to have a thick skin in this world because if you don’t you will be going at everyone that says something unfavorable.

Elove, the paparazzi catches hell all the time out here and they are constantly getting hit, cameras broken, sued, cities are filing injunctions against them (as in my opinion they should) because of the fact that they will stop at nothing to get what they want but in my opinion some of these bloggers are no better. They may not intrude in the celebs faces but they start rumors (all the dl nonsense, who’s cheating on who and so on) that actually have real life ramifications so in my opinion while they may be strangers to the celebs they can cause just as much pain as the people close to them. JD hasn’t had a hit in years, that much is true, but he has definetly left his mark on the industry and his past success/musical discoveries cannot be denied nor should they be. Regardless of the reasons for him falling off be it the fact that no one stays on top forever, an overbloated ego or too much time spent flossing and partying, no one would want to read about them being over in the way that she wrote that post. That had to hurt because it was brutal to read and I’m not a huge fan of his but I can’t stand to see someone ripped to shreds for no reason. If he’s going broke and making a mistake by putting all his resources into this Dondria chick, that’s his life and his choice, it’s not going to make or break anyone but him and her. There was no reason for her to go in on him like that and I refuse to believe that these celebs should just stomach every time someone feels the need to put them on blast like that because of their career choice. And there is a huge difference between a nickname given by family (no matter how cruel or embarrassing) and calling someone a b.itch or any thing that is the basic equivalent of saying they are less than a man. She basically sliced that man’s balls off and served them to him on a platter for all of her readers to see and then expected him to either remain silent or go on a twitter rant so she could post it, call him immature and further generate blog hits. If this is true than that plan clearly blew up in her face and now she’s mad and everyone wants to jump on him. If I was drunk, partying and having a good time and then was told to check a blog and read a story like that about myself no telling what I would do but I would go the hell off and I can’t understand why it’s so hard to get that these celebrities are human and have the same emotions that regular everyday people have. Yes, some people are better able to contain there emotions and temper than others but EVERYONE regardless of what they may say on here has their breaking point. And these celebs that Sandra goes in on arent going to be able to successfully sue her for libel or defamation of character so maybe he lost it. It happens but that doesn’t make him less of a man because of it. This man has a child who I believe is in her teenage years who could have read that, who has classmates able to read that and later mention it to her, he has parents, girlfriends whatever who were able to read that and bring it back to him. Just because you run a gossip site or blog doesn’t give you the right to disrespect other people and think it’s okay because it’s your opinion and they should just get over it. It’s not that simple and no one has the right to tell someone to just get over a personal insult to them because you can believe Sandra goes the hell off whenever someone attacks her personally

@Ms. Everything
Are you truly BEING Realistic about the things you’re saying regarding CELEBRITIES Rights-n-Feelings OR is it just Your PROFOUND IDEAL of how it should be in Your PERFECT WORLD for Celebrities
YOU SAY:
If I was drunk, partying and having a good time and then was told to check a blog <—- I would tell that person "WHY in the F-U-C-K would I want to do THAT FOR"
YOU SAY:
And these celebs that Sandra goes in on arent going to be able to successfully sue her for libel or defamation of character so maybe he lost it. It happens but that doesn’t make him less of a man because of it. <—- ACTUALLY IT DOES make him less than A MAN
YOU SAY:
and I can’t understand why it’s so hard to get that these celebrities are human and have the same emotions that regular everyday people have.
My Take:
An individual who happens to be a CELEBRITY along with being Famous-Enough & Rich-Enough to live better than 80% of the population AND 95% of HIS Ethnic Group (If said individual is NON-YT…) don't possess the Confidence, Self-Esteem, Emotional Restraint-n-Control and Personal-Discipline TO HANDLE NEGATIVITY FROM AFAR FROM COMPLETE STRANGERS ?!!?
IF SO then That INDIVIDUAL has Serious-n-Severe Emotional problems and should seek PROFESSIONAL HELP (Being So Real Here…)
And Finally… She basically sliced that man’s balls off and served them to him on a platter for all of her readers to see and then expected him to either remain silent or go on a twitter rant so she could post it, call him immature and further generate blog hits.
That’s the SHEER BEAUTY of Ms. Sandra’s VERY SARCASTIC-n-BITING HUMOR and WHY I’ve always been a LONG-TIME Reader & Member (NEVER A LURKER…)
Just crazy
@Elove, So my belief that everybody should be given a certain amount of respect and consideration regardless of their status in the world be they celebs, regular folks, rich or poor is unrealistic? I’m not saying everybody needs to hold hands and sing kumbaya but at the same time regularly dragging people through the dirt just because they’re rich and famous is crazy and a sign of somebody who is mentally unstable. Who the hell gets off by making other people miserable? And being rich and famous by no means guarantees happiness, high self esteem or creates an immunity to being hurt by negative people. You’re right Sandra has always had a sarcastic and biting humor but that’s never been what kept me coming to the site and I’ve never bitten my tongue when I think she or anyone else has crossed the line from criticism to cruelty regardless of what some of yall on here may think of me. There’s a way to do things and say things and this was not the way. There was no reason for her to go in on him like that and there’s no reason especially with no proof for people to be on here calling him outside his name for losing his temper when he had every right to be mad. Making a mistake and losing his temper does not make him less of a man. He’s not selling drugs, he takes care of his child, he’s not making babies all across the country, he’s not promoting violence and a bunch of nonsense to the youth which is more than 95% of the celebs who get positive press on this same site do but we can agree to disagree. Lucky for me I know many excellent upstanding real black men personally to base my assessment of what makes a man off of and therefore know enough about real men not to label someone I don’t know a bytch based off an account on a blog with no facts to back it up and due to the fact that he supposedly lost his temper one time with a woman who went after him first. Maybe because I grew up as a child of people who were in the industry I can look at these celebs different vs those who’ve never been closer than being outsiders looking in so I know better than to assume a celebrity has a supernatural immunity to criticism and is able to handle all situations without making mistakes or getting upset. Or that because they can jet set across the country that they are automatically happy with excellent self esteem. Have you ever questioned why so many in the industry do so many drugs, have such high levels of suicide, addiction and mental problems? A huge part of the problem is the fact that tabloids, crazed fans and now blogs keep these people under a microscope, spill all their business, tell lies about them, and drag them through the mud whenever they make a mistake or do something the public does not agree with on top of the millions of other problems created by working in a superficial industry. But thats craziness apparently because according to some of you these people should just have thicker skin which can be bought at your nearest Walmart or Target so that they can turn a blind eye to all the bullshit they have to go through in order to live out their dream, right? Whatever
@KrayZ, I think it should apply to bloggers and commenters. As I said above, to repeatedly attack a person you don’t know is a sign of mental instability if you ask me. There’s a difference between criticism of something you don’t like and cruelty and unfortunately alot of people don’t realize when they are crossing that line. But thats jmo
“Would he have called [TMZ’s] Harvey Levin like that?

Probably not because regardless of the content on TMZ’s site, they are and will always be more respected than SR. She thinks it’s her duty/role to dog these celebs as much as she wants. She is not only a biased blogger, but she doesn’t even try to hide it. I am in no way a stan/fan of JD, but SR has no limit. It’s almost amazing at the lengths she goes, to get a reaction out of these celebs.You can almost imagine her, sitting behind her comp with a huge smirk on her face, when she writes these stories. All for some damn hits on her sites. I guess the only way u can get love on this site, is if ur name is Tiny or TI. Cuz we all know how thirsty SR is for their attention….
@Ms. Everything
ACTUALLY I have blood relatives who are LEGENDS in the music industry, Know and Knew ALOT of REAL Celebrities because of those relatives BUT I’m not into NAME-Dropping but I say that to let YOU know that The Vulnerabilities of Celebrities ISN’T NEWS to me… THEREFORE it shouldn’t be to THOSE that have lived their life within the Music Industry as such i.e. Jermaine Dupree
I UNDERSTAND where you coming from but I DON’T AGREE to the extent THAT YOU DO regarding them NOT BEING more accountable than a NON Celebrity knowing full well the SCRUTINY that comes with being A Celebrity… BLACK Superstar Professional Athletes catch MORE Unnecessary Grief & BULL-SHYT than ANY Urban Music or Movie Star… AND the Athlete have MF-ers in the stands calling them ALL KINDS of NAMES and YT AZZ-Holes on TV clowning them as well as in the Newspapers (Being So Real…)
I’ve been fortunate AS WELL AS YOU to have had REAL MEN during my upbringing also WHICH IS WHY JD falls enormously short of being A REAL MAN if he did (IN FACT) threaten Ms. Sandra for a Blog-posting HE DIDN’T APPRECIATE.
SINCE I’m A REAL BLACK MAN all I can say is this… IF Ms. Sandra or ANYONE in her type-of-position talked Inappropriately OR Sideways about ME, The LAST THING I would do is THREATEN THAT PERSON’S LIFE OVER THE TELEPHONE !!!!!
NOW If YOU fail to grasp & understand that fact then YEAH YOU’RE RIGHT… We’ll AGREE to DISAGREE (Real…)
Threating anyones life, is WRONG, simple. but some folk, getting mad cause he threatened a female? he a punk? please GTFOH, gender don’t mean ish when evil crap is spewing out ya azz on the daily…it don’t make him any less man cause he has had enough…it amazes me how folks thinks its ok to sling dirt and cause pain… embarrassment…LIES and mental distress and then expect NO repercussions, whether what sandra wrote is true or not its still his REPUTATION, which is a HUGE part of his LIVELYHOOD, the man has CHILDREN,a MAMA, a FAMILY!!! how is he supposed to feel? really? if the shoe was on the other foot and some co-worker was wearin your azz out around the office, half of yall weaves would be in your purse ready for war…so come of it…bottom line, don’t write it or speak it, if you can’t take the heat…so but Sandra you have gotten away with alot…we have told you many times, no one wants to see you hurt so calm the fluck down wit all that man…ever heard the expression your MOUTH gon get u in trouble? well the same applies to your blog yo… I’m just sayin…people can only take but so much.I don’t think less of him at all, It may not be how I respond, but I can FULLY understand, when you are going about your own life, and every time you turn around someone is dragging your name through the mud, and not just any mud, nasty, shtty, acid laced, blood covered,boiling hot, stagnant mud…that sticks to you like tar, that MAN has had ENOUGH…all can side with Sandra all you want, but YOU ain’t on the other end of this, she may be writing for hits and reactions…but what she writes and how she writes it has REAL life consequences, famous or not…like the chick who mama wrote in about sandra saying her daughter a man… this ain’t no small azz blog…EVERYONE read that and seen that…THAT WAS THAT LADIES CHILD!!!! HER CHILD!!!! reading how some of yall go up your own kids, I could only imagine…JD, wrong for threating a life, but is NOT wrong for expressing how upset he is…I’m just sorry he let Sandra get him there…but that brotha is at the end of his rope….YOU Sandra can speak to all the lawyers you want, but if they ain’t advising you to be a tad bit more respectful to people…then you are wasting your loot. BE CAREFUL…watch your mouth yo…damn.
sandra, handle this privately, if you’re going to handle it. i dont see the point in posting new angles of the same story each day. that’s just me.
the one point raised that I too thought about was the TMZ comment. no, he wouldn’t have responded the same way. hell, i been holding on to post this for hours, i lost my train of thought.
#20
at whoever told you that, but stopped responding. where is the fan appreciation or some gratitude?
Cosigning everything ms. Everthing has said
When people realize that these celebrities are human just like us!! When someone hurts u its human nature to want to hurt that person just as bad as u hurted!! Sandra can speak her mind but for EVERY ACTION THERE IS A REACTION!!
**hurt**
at ELOVE, 54. could you name drop this one time? I wont tell anybody. go.
Hello All.
1. What goes around, comes around
2. There are 3 sides to every story: his story, her story and what actually happened!
In the infamous words of Rodney King: Can’t we allllll just get along.
PS Sandra, don’t you ban folks that disrespect you? Why, if you feel so strongly about free speech? I’m just asking! Have a great week family and KEEP HOPE ALIVE!
Mornin Fam, even though Sandra gos in hard on a lot of these celebs and while I’m readin it alot of time I’m thinkin “WTF is she thinkin” the fact still remains that you knew when you decided to get into the lifestyle you were gonna have to take the good with the bad and to me it looks even worse for JD if the story is 100 persent true because he’s been in the game longer so he knows how it works and it’s not like he’s just startin out and isn’t used to negativity!
I personally think it’s a bytch move for him to threaten her and yes I know everyone has their limits but be a man about your shyt and handle it in a professional manner and if he thinks she slandered his name and he can prove she purposefully said somethin to ruin his image with malicious intent (New York Times v. Sullivan) then sue her azz to prove a point and be done with it!

Wow, I’ve been gone too long! This is good!
Straight bitchassness on JD’s part…gotta take the good with the bad and I’m sure he’s heard much worse about himself. He obviously has something personal against Sandra…just down right can’t stand her a.ss. But either way, he’s a “celebrity” and needs to know that everybody is NOT a fan…
Yeah, he can feel some kinda way about what was said, but hell, take her to court, sue her for defamation or some sh.it like that. (Although he really ain’t hot no more)
If JD has to take the good with the bad how come the same principal doesn’t apply to Sandra….or anyone else for that matter?
This is all becoming a bit much and I’m starting to believe this is a created publicity stunt….gone wrong!
Sandra, if you did indeed tape the conversation please go ahead and file for a TPO. I don’t know where corn niblet teeth having midget has-beens get off threatening folks lives, but death threats (whether made while drunk in Timbuktu) are not playing word to me
What did Precious say? How is her new baby?
I was always told a drunk person often speaks a sober mind.
I’ve also been told a hit dog will holler.
Jermaine Dupri is lame a f*ck…
Geesh…i go on vacation and come back to this foolishiness…JESUS BE A FENCE!

So basically everyone is saying that just because you’re a celebrity you can be treated like trash, clowned, disrespected, lied on, and it’s ok?
Being a celebrity doesn’t make them immune to feelings. They’re human just like the rest of us. Of course criticism comes with the territory because of the amplified spotlight in the media but that doesn’t make attacking a person right does it? No it doesn’t…
If your personal life was scrutinized on a daily basis by COMPLETE STRANGERS that know nothing about you how would you feel?
Mamacita I’m not sayin it’s ok but he did not just get into this industry and he’s been in it long enough to know how it works. My point was that he should have handled it different. Hell I aint famous and I know I can’t just go around threaten folks and tryin to whopp everybody’s azz because I dont can’t afford to catch any cases! So unless my life or my family’s life is threatened then there’s no need to threaten someone’s life.
If a blogger just flat out writes lies or make up false stories then yes they should be held accountable but this is way too far imo.

First off I agree 100% with Mamacita, Ms. Sugapoet, it really doesnt matter how long he has been in the game, it really doesn’t matter how which line of work he does, It doesn’t make ALL people immune, it may do they opposite, it may make him hyper sensitive…no its not right to threaten, but it doesn’t make it right to disrespect, esp so brutally…
and plenty of times falsely…I guess I come from the school of watch what you say, watch what you. EVERYONE has the right to feel what they feel, say what they say…just be mindful of the repercussions, not everyone is going to handle it the same way…bottomline? shut up or knuckle up…
When Mr. Jermaine Dupri got into to the industry, there were no blogs. Hell, was there even an internet? Blank stare.
Jermaine STFU and talk to Da Brat who acted at your CLUB and did time for it-You are a KERMIT/SMURF HYBRID and the fact that you are going so gangsta over someone’s opinion only further assists me in knowing y Janet left your azz-despite my opinion of you being DL
