In case you haven’t noticed, Tyrese (aka the love guru) has embarked on a new career. He’s gone from singing to acting to singing again… and now he’s also taken up philosophizing relationship matters.
Tyrese gained a following on twitter behind his profound thoughts and while I’m sure his book has some insightful material, I’m always leery about those who talk the talk but don’t walk the walk.
After Tyrese openly shared details of his baby mama drama online, I guess it’s safe to say we are ALL relationship “experts” in some form or fashion, and being that there’s no better teacher than experience, how can one tell another how to be successful at something they themselves have had no success with?
But I digress… order your copy of Tyrese’s book, How to Get Out of Your Own Way,
Tyrese has been in hot water with his female fans over not having enough Black women in his recent video with R. Kelly & Tyga, and he’s oh so unapologetic about his decision…
[Sidebar: So I gather that "non Black" women are "BEST" in Jody's opinion? *sigh* I think a man with his own book should seriously choose his words a bit more carefully...]
CLICK HERE to read Tyrese’s full twitter rant and to watch the low budget “I Gotta Chick” video.
Jody “Black Ty” recently released a song featuring his “Fast Five” castmate, actor/rapper Christoper “Ludacris” Bridges, called “Too Easy” and while it’s way “Too Easy” to allow Tyrese’s self-hating color issues taint my view of his music… I’m not gonna do it.
Not today…
I’ll just bite my tongue and pray Luda talked some sense into Jody Tyrese while they spent time in the studio…
“Too Easy” ~ Tyreses ft. Ludacris
What do you think of Tyrese’s news song featuring Luda?

Shoot Bump It! ANYTHING WIT THEM TWO FINE ASS BLACK MEN I’LL LISTEN TOO!!
And to add I dont care if he didnt want any black women n his video, shit it’s his choice. I’m a strong black women and I still LUV’EM!!!IJS
um black Ty, better stop playing, all that sh*t he talking in that book abt self respect, and blah blah, which im sure most BLACK women bought, better back pedding in that funkin comment. We BLACK WOMEN will boycott his black ass quick.
I did see the making of the video, and he kept telling the women to move and act like BEYONCE. sigh..negga please!
Shut the hell up TYRESE! ugh! Ni**ery to the fifth power! You’re fan base is black women dumb azz!
luv u baby boy:))
Re: the new song, no thanks. P.S. re: “I had a 2 days audition”? If he’s supposed to be a writer, he needs to get an editor to check his grammar. Not being a hater, just telling it how it is.
Black Ty has ALWAYS like his women Light, Bright n Damn Near White! Where y’all been O_o???? That’s y I follow him on Twitter but to me (@BiggAlsWife) it’s all entertainment!
Love tyrese him not having no black women in the video is fine with me hes a singer he is too make hits hes not a director!
Stfu Tyrese… the fact that he said he invited ALL women and only casted the best sounds contradictory as hell….
Of course black women will still support his ass even though he’s been shading them since day 1. Self-hate is not just a black man’s problem.
Boycott his a$$ like Wesly Snipes. Tyrese thinks non black is the best. F*ck him!!!
Stereotypical Black man and a stereotypical dark skin man, at that. Embarrassing.
I don’t listen to him or Ludacris, I prefer music.
KAMALLA’S COMMENT IS LIVE AND DIRECT! PREACH SISTER!
And some folk just won’t get it. You will have sistahs giving up their hard earned money to support the writings, film and music of a negro that don’t care about them because they don’t care about themselves. Love is a two way street. Respect is a two way street. Survival is a two way street. Phuck Tyrese’s tyard a$$
Dump it! This shyt has been going on too long. We have seen sistas replace with light skin or biracial sistas. Now light skin sista aren’t good even. They are being replace by non black women. You will never see this foolery done by other races but blacks. You will never see a white artists with 12 – 15 black girls in a video. Why because we don’t love and like ourselves? Tyrese was the one who pick the video models and he’s color struck. He like so many black men are into if it’s light or white. It’s right. He still has the slave mentality/Willie Lynch Syndrome and don’t like his dark skin. Subliminal message to black women by the industry is that you are even good enough to represent yourself. If you notice it is a serious trend. Black women have been outsourced by other “ethnic/exotic” looking women to be featured in video sung by black males. Black women or anyone who is offended by this wake up and boycott his a$$. There is a movement in Hollywood to erase black women from movies, videos, print, commercials etc. Black women are disappearing from the media (except in the most negative, one-sided portrayals) because America hates Black women and wants the future of Black men and Black boys to hate Black women and girls. White America and other non-Blacks hated the fact that the most successful Black man in America (President Obama) married a Black woman – thus a backlash because nobody wants to see a Black women with the man who is "leader of the free world" in the highest office in the land – plus with 2 Black daughters to boot. Thus, they are sucking every image of Black women out of view as possible – except for stereotypical.
Dump it. If he don’t won’t to hire black women in his videos, black women don’t support his black azz.
As the old saying goes:"I can show you better than I can tell you".Wait until your album drops and then come with that smart mouth.He’s been sending out more signs than a little bit, and I am not talking about his ever present hate for "women" black or white,either.Support who supports you and call it a day.Hollywood has messed some of these people’s head up..don’t let them fool y’all that bad.
Laz Alonso gonna replace Tyrese azz anyway. Tyrese’s days are numbered cuz he is getting older and that is why he wrote that book in the first place. He’s trying get some supplemental income.
Seriously, all woman beaters have deep seated hate issues, if you ask me.A negro that will whip your behind, and still want you to buy his music is asking me for way to much.He needs to get whatever is wrong with him out of the closet, and stop attacking black women all of the time.This isn’t his first TWITTER nervous breakdown this dude has had…I believe it’s a regular occurance with this person.Hollywood plays black actors all day everyday, so don’t be no fool and think they will have your back forever.
Well, I will not be supporting him if he’s doing that.
@ Anthony R Ward – Yeah and u sound like someone who would switch out also. SMH. Don’t hate yourself so much.
@Deborah LaCour – I agree because that money ain’t coming to a sistah anyway.
@ Kesha D. Jackson via – Lol. that’s right, let it slide. Lmao. Bu!!shh. What strong blk woman doesn’t want to be chosen over another ethnic group. SMH, nah, u not strong kesha. Don’t fool yourself. Your basically supporting not being treated right as a blk woman.
@SMH- I know right. That money could be used on a blk man who prefers blk women.
@ lockstress – Sure is.
@Yatesa Pitts- Aww, but from the decision of those tweets, he don’t love u. Lol.
@ Shanikkamissmewiththedrama – Okay. You not caring says a lot about your confidence and self love. Yes he is a singer, and he should sing not make hits. He is not a songwriter. Put the message of the song with the images of the video. He got a chick, no blk girl in the video. You get it.
@ Juanita – Um with u.
@Adusade- It is embarrassing. He can be ignored if blk women see it for what it really is.
@ Kamalla – Claps. I agree. Separate the girls from the women.
@Q- I totally agree. White bands never do that, but blks boys do it A LOT. All that can change if blk women stop supporting them fools. Only a blk boy who is not smart enough to see the truth will fall for the bs that white america or white people in america wants them to fall for etc. Well, i’m getting my own network so that ish about to change.
@ Bree- I feel you.
@ l – True.
OKay, just seen the tweets. Lol. whoa.
In other words, there was nothing better than the whites and asians?
One book got em crazy.
That was not professional or nice of him to tell a bunch of blk women who obviously care for him to "tame their emotions". So wrong. SMH.
Then called the sistah’s aggressive.
Who asked that hersey looking coon for a favor? I am not following him on twitter and will not begin doing it, but what is he talking about?
Love don’t make you choose something else you "don’t love" more.
Caps on best. Well, at least yall know what he like now.
Then he has the nerve to say "love you". SMH.
Well, I would hope that sistahs get off his twit and make room for the white girls. Bet his page will be empty because he’s not making enough to support or pick-up a white girl etc.
I don’t think he’s a good singer anyway. Maybe that’s why I don’t follow him.
Much love to the real blk men who love real blk women.
I wonder how he feels about his lil girl when he do things like that.
I don’t have none of his music or merch and I am proud of that.
I think it’s time for black women to respect that they are not the only women black men find attractive, beautiful, etc..
It is quite immature and arrogant to think otherwise.
@ King Dupree- Correction. "Black Men" aren’t curious and confused.
How is that immture and arrogant? Did you mean that blk women are being confident and asking for repect and the same love that they show blk guys?
Wrong choice of words.
@ King Dupree- LOL. It’s funny that everybody on your page has a white girl a.k.a their coons. Lmao that would explain your responce. Lol. That’s a shame.
Marketing? What "boy" chooses a marketing career? Dang.
My company hiring billboard, I mean marketers. Lol.

The reason he’s not aware of what he is saying is cause like any other persons who are entertainers and then all of a sudden they’re relationship experts have ghost writers.
Mind you there are people who go to school for years to become therapist and these guys become experts cause they made a song or acted in a play or whateva…
