This guy is a cool guy who needed real love...unfortunately, he got into the wrong hands.
Na im cheap wife wey no deserve am....
Its fine sha...i understand. You can never please a woman. Na why i dey always tell my guyz never to loose guard untop woman head.

When he was down and all, he didn't know he acted foolish till later he realized his mistake. We re bound to make mistakes. But we shouldn't just condemn people like that, we correct as well.... Only few of his friends stood by him and helped him.
I'm happy to see him coming back on his feet.
As Niggas, make we dey try to always help ourselves in any way. Not all these entitled gender who don't even give a damn bout us...


As our Ancestors would say "A wise man was once foolish but the elder's wisdom delivered him".

@1stGenAmerican,

Yeah, Will Smith is no doubt an
A-list actor anyday... He just has to go for professional psychotherapy and stop being an emotionally weak man.

I'm the kinda man who can never accept to be involved in the type of "open" relationship Will and Jada were involved in with that young man, and more.

Good man? undecided

So you support violence? You support what he did to Chris Rock? That was thuggish behavior and that man is clearly dealing with some emotional/psychological issues with that his wife.

What do you call what Chris did, friend? He could’ve cracked jokes about anyone and anything in order to make Whites laugh but chose to use the wife of a Black man as the butt of his joke (he’s done this before). He is acquainted with hundreds of White men, he could’ve cracked a joke about one of their wives but instead he decided to reach back into the old days and bring back minstrel shows.

First I don’t think Chris Rock is racially selective about who he cracks jokes about, so we don’t need to bring race into it. I’ve seen him go after people of all races as he did that night too. But regardless, it was just a joke. Chris meant no malice and later said he had no idea her hair was short because of an illness or he wouldn’t have joked about it.

smith himself initially laughed at the joke until his wife must have given him an eye which shows he’s not even in control of his own emotions in that relationship - Never a good look for a man.

The right thing to do as a man if you were upset by the joke (which he wasn’t) is to grab your wife and walk out of that venue. Confront Chris afterwards, let him know you were not cool with what he said and settle it man to man behind closed doors. He would either explain himself and apologize or it will end in a fight but you just can’t walk up on stage and deck him in front of millions of people including kids. That was incredibly silly and he deserved whatever consequences he got for it.

Now he has only succeeded in reinforcing the stereotype of black people being violent thugs so he didn’t do the culture any good either.
