You Don’t Get Ya Rep Back Like That
August 31, 2006 by Marc Lamont Hill
Yesterday, Ne-Yo responded to the recent rumors about his sexuality by appearing on Hot 97’s Angie Martinez show. In addition to denying the gay rumors, he confirmed that another rumor about him was true. A few weeks ago, a photo of a man alleged to be Ne-Yo receiving oral sex began to circulate around the internet. Until now, Ne-Yo, who is reportedly married with children, has remained silent about the photo. Now that his sexuality is being publicly scrutinized, however, Ne-Yo publicly confirmed and explained his encounter with the anonymous woman.
Although I don’t doubt (or even care about) Ne-Yo’s honesty with regard to the two rumors, I find it interesting that he responded in this way. With his masculinity in perceived peril, Ne-Yo chose to embarrass himself and his family rather than allow doubts about his sexuality to linger.

there is nothing like a good karmic slap in the face!
My friends know better than to treat me shady. Somehow how the altars to Ogun and Shango in my house and the various totemic items throughout, as well as bad things happening to those who cross me gives folks the idea I have protection.
Actually, I am so old now that I have managed to remove most of the toxic folks from my life.

I can’t be bothered with anything these days. Basically not much noteworthy happening. I feel like an empty room. I’ve more or less been doing nothing.

More or less nothing seems important. So it goes. Oh well. It’s not important. That’s how it is.

Pretty much nothing seems worth thinking about. Maybe tomorrow. My life’s been generally bland today. Such is life. I’ve just been sitting around doing nothing, but eh.

I haven’t been up to anything. That’s how it is. Not much on my mind right now. I can’t be bothered with anything recently, not that it matters. It’s not important.
