[FLASHBACK: R.I.P. Kile Glover: A Beautiful Mind Is Laid to Rest... (PHOTOS + VIDEO)]
In honor of what would have been her son Kile Glover’s 12th birthday, Tameka held a celebratory launch party for the non-profit foundation created in his honor.
“Kile’s World Foundation” will offer art-based camps with multiple workshops including general instruction in the areas of acting, singing, dance, painting, illustration, music production and digital media.
It is also Tameka’s hopes to eventually open a magnet school with an emphasis on music and the arts in Kile’s honor.

Many of Kile’s family members and friends showed up to the Woodruff Arts Center in Atlanta to support the event and several pieces of the gifted pre-teen’s original art work was on display for all to admire.
Attendees included: All of Kile’s brothers, his cousin Lake (Usher’s brother’s daughter), Sabrina Rowe & Sherlinda Parker (Big Rich Atlanta), Atlanta radio personality Frank Ski, Quad (Married to Medicine) and more.
Noticeably absent? Usher Raymond and Ryan Glover (Kile’s father).

Naviyd was tuned in to the television speakers because he heard Kile’s voice in some of the old home movies.

This entire post made me cry..the best way to combat tragedy is making something postive out of it..God Bless this family…
That’s so true…
I completely agree with you @2bme….I also choked up reading the post….expecially at Naviyd standing in front of Kyles picture…looks like he was looking for him…
I thought that too!
What gorgeous children Tameka has! I pray for her continued strength and greatly admire her courage…
Nice to see his name live on
This is absolutely wonderful, absolutely needed and in my opinion, quite healing. Good for you, Tameka.
…as the “Hustle” turns!
Hmm…not going there today. But I will say rest peacefully ,Kyle.
Jimi, go play in traffic with a blind fold during rush hour.
Hello
Money grab
Nicqui, go join him.
After you
Such a wonderful event!
Kile’s birthday was Friday. Please continue to keep all parties involved in your thoughts and prayers. The loss of a child is difficult for any parent.
Beautiful event!
Suspect!
It’s sad that one of her kids have to die in order for Tameka to even acknowledge the first 3 kids. Before that she acted as if Usher kids were her first. Don’t act like yall don’t remember. She’s using Kyle’s name to stay relevant. SAD!
Lmao i hope not.
What an ignorant comment to make? I guess this is the assumption being that they weren’t all up in pictures or on red carpets with her? How stupid to assume that she didn’t love or have her kids daily. We all know that celeb kids get more photos and attention.
I saw pictures of all of her kids with Usher before even at the Kids choice Awards. Your entire comment is based on rumors and stupidity . I follow her on Twitter and she’s been talking about those kids all the time before one passed. You are an asshole and you misspelled her sons name dummy. Don’t spread shit you don’t know or are assuming, especially about a deceased boy.
Thank you Kamaya. Some bitches take pride in being stupid.
Tameka, is that U? Y’all know that raggady bitch didn’t give a fuck about her husband & 3 kids that she left behind to be with Usher
Damn, just the fact that u follow a has been ex wife on twitter speaks volumes about U!
She’s always shown her other kids, the ones with Usher were shown more by blogs and media because of who their father is..she has tons of pictures of all of her kids on Instagram and Twitter
You know what?…I’m so sick of miserable b*tches like you that STILL can’t get over the FACT that Usher married Tameka and you have jealousy for her because of it and that was probably close to ten years ago!
You don’t know what that woman has dealt with or what she she still deals with because of her sons death….
I don’t think marrying Usher is the issue. I think they believe she only doing this for Money and attention . I m not a fan of hers but I no she loves all her kids and she is trying to keep her spirits alive by doing this fondation I hate when kids i have to be the victims of these blogs. Everybody grieves different . I just feel bad that she has nobody to lean on.
Ain’t nobody checking for Usher no more . He’s now considered as a sell out in the industry . His Ex fans could careless about Usher and Tameka fake marriage . Didn’t he screw her bridesmaids and still have the audacity to still wear his last name, makes mr ashamed to be a woman. Usher is so fake. When RnB wasn’t at the top of the charts he abandoned the fans and music that gave him international fame and money. He jumped on the next best thing that thought would give him more money a fame which was EDM, but instead he last fans, albums and most important the RESPECT for the music that people gave him top honor for. Now that Mr. Timberlake came back with a full RnB album, selling millions, sold out shows, gaining respect ,now Usher back in the studio trying to push out a RnB album. Just last week he was sti riding the Techno wave. We see U Usher. We see U
STILL NO RELIANCE TO THE TOPIC. AND IT’S OBVIOUS YOU CHECKING FOR HIM SINCE YOU JUST GIVE A BIO ON HIM. AND THEN THE FACT THAT YOU KNOW WHAT WAS HE DOING LAST WEEK MAKES YOU THE GROUPIE . THIS ABOUT TAMEKA LET HER HAVE HER MOMENT IN PEACE.
some of these comments are kinda ignorant . If you experience a lost like that you would think different . I so hope thats not the case. Im Still not sure why where mentioning Usher. Of course he ain’t gonna be there he could careless about anything she do. He made that clear a long time ago. The father not there now that a issue for me. Im still waiting for his interview…..
Well I agree that he doesn’t care enough about HER hence his screwing her friend/bridesmaid, he is a low life muthaf@@ker, but this event was about the step-son that he claimed to love! He mentioned Kile on "Oprah" and said he "loved and missed him" so why didn’t he support a important event surrounding something great to honor him?? A school is a great idea and a camp is a nice start. I wish his mother God speed and Kile’s angel wings as covering to deal with that bastard. Smh. Lost respect – Again!
Yeah true but the boy father didnt even attend . And as i revall Tameka didnt want him involved from the rip so why bring negative energy into something positive because it would have been all about Usher being there and not about Kile the reason the event took place.
Recall……era…..
My 1st comment had several grammar errors, but y’all get the grip. Usher is considered a SELL OUT in the industry for going europop. Now he’s a flop and has to go on the Voice to stay relevant . Tameka makes me ashamed to be a woman, still rocking a mans last name who screwed her bridesmaid . Im embarrassed for her. I rather be broke than have to deal with someone like him to eat . God bless her .
So why are you following there lives and there story skip pass them then. Usher went platium last cd and won a grammy for it. Tameka is organizing a fondation to honor her son what do her last name got to do with this call Foster if it bother you that much Usher do. LMAO
Hun they keep their shit in the media and I’m noisy. Along with other public figures in the media, and we all know Usher and Tameka keeps mess going.
FYI, Usher last didn’t go no fucking platinum, trash didn’t even go Gold.
Platium grammy 2 AMA he would not nominated otherwise im still not the issue. He wasnt at this event nor at any event she give he could careless it these blogs who always trying to put them together he left her in 08 and been with plenty sinces so why is he still relavant to anything she do.
Guuurrrrrl you silly to even care enough to "lose respect" about her damn name. Girl get you some business and stop worrying about her name, who feeds her, her kids, etc…. FYI she looks to be quite fine without your blessings. She looks thicker so she obviously eating well too.
Bottomline is this is a great deed and you can’t take that away, rather you ike her having Ushers name, ring, sons, house, checks, marriage license, divorce decree, the list goes on, the shit is all hers. Last I checked it aint your life to be embarrassed about anyway. WHY DO YOU CARE THAT MUCH????? and Im sorry I’d never rather be broke over a damn name. You sound silly right now. Hater! Keep eating Tameka RAYMOND, hoes on blawwwgs is mad about it. Great work with the foundation idea! Love it, keep pressing! Haters need work, keep em busy.
SAY THAT!
@Styfly are you aware that Tameka didn’t have any public attention , until Usher. She was just pressing his clothes, until he committed career suicide and married her.. Is the reason MutherFu&king people brings his name up when anything relates to her.
I get that.. I never ride with her ever..
But this not his kid and they divorce so he has no relavance here thats all im saying. If we didnt no then we no now so let it be.
<<<<< and you since you are an "Usher" affectionado, seems to me you would be riding with her, cuz he sholllll did obviously. She must have something he liked, no better yet loved since he married her out of all the women, fans, groupies, stars, models, gays and nuts that worship his ass. he chose her. That a lot to say so I’ve been Team Tameka since he said I do and wrote an entire album to her. Hell I need to formula and quick! Im not a hater and Im realistic. She’s cute not drop dead and she married that squirrel rather we like or not. He put a ring on it… and babies in it too. Boys are harder to make than girls I hear, so work was put in effect. I respect the shit out of ol girl, real recognize real. Im going to bed now, I’m tired of stanning for Ms Raymond. LOL She’s alright in my book. Love this non profit cause, this rocks!
Bitch pls, seems like Usher was popping every pussy insight, HINT : The bridesmaid. Tameka just was a bit more pressed then the others , stalking his ass and shit. Thought she was going to be that bitch, but got completely shitted on. Ha!
Whatever her claim to fame is>>>> Pressing clothes, shining shoes, doing perms, threading needles, she SHOLLLLL got yo panties in a bunch, you sitting on a blog ANONYMOUSLY talking trash and misspelling shit in the process, in true hater fashion because haters are usually ignorant ass people, with small scopes and petty lives. I actually love reading the hate you spew, it tells me she did a LOT right. She is on your radar and you are heated. Goooooo Meka!!!! Keep these pressed heauxs pressed. I love the foundation idea and the cartoon is so cute of him. Rep your son however you like, he was yours!!! screw a jealous, Usher mad, hatin’ miserable bitch #Boss
True I have some misspelled shit… But it seems like u heated. I’m just stating the facts at hand. It’s interesting you still think bitches give a damn about Usher, and jealous of Tameka. Maybe once upon a time , but after all that messy ass shit they went through last year, I wouldn’t put that shit on my worst enemy.
Im definitely not ever heated over a nut on a blog. Bishhh you’re the passionate one leaving multiple comments and dissing one of the greatest Black men in Music. Usher is pretty f-ing amazing if you ask me, he may be getting older but the boy is BADDDD don’t sleep.
as is his ex WIFE (taste it) she’s clearly comparable to him since he married her. there is something that I find intriguing about him actually going down that Aisle with this woman, her bad bitch status is low key but UNDERSTOOD by me. Hell she needs to do a book about it, she married a tough one. Yes, he screwed her bridesmaid, which means that hoe is garbage, a sidekick trying to get on, a slore, a bottom feeder, a low life, no class trash guzzler but still Ms Meka was that wife and kids mother out of them ALL. Including Silly Chili who everyone rooted for but she still lost even made show lamenting over this said loss. Ha. I’m no fan of either but I can’t deny the obvious here. Just let it go babe, move on. It happened and she’s forever linked to him by blood. Their kids, it is what it is rather you’re embarrassed or not. Move on lady. Relax, relate, release.
I so agree with you KB1!
I really feel that many of Tameka’s critics are jealous because Usher married her and that just doesn’t make any sense to me…..
That’s exactly what it is
They mad cause Usher married Tameka and if he would have married a white/hispanic/asian/persian girl they would be mad about that too! I’m not a Tameka Fan at all but the foundation is a beautiful way to honor her son. And like what has been stated earlier She must have been doing something right….
This is part of Tameka’s healing process, and we should respect that. I think its a great event. I also think that some of you bishes stay pressed and remain ignorant when it comes to this situation-exit left with all that rachet ass commentary, plz and ty.
You are correct! Black women are our own worse enemy…when I see Tameka, I see a woman who has endured terrible tragedies and yet had managed to maintain her sanity and keep it together for her boys. Kudos to Tameka!
I guarantee NOT ONE of the ones commenting could have been in Tameka’s shoes and endured all she has gone through and still going through..Love or hate her that’s STRENGTH..and not many have it..especially the anonymous shit talkers on this blog
You should have been in bed he married her cause she was pregnant how many times is he gonna say that and Im sure he got more babies running around it been other stories of house babies and support.Chilli and Niamo both declined his propsal because of his cheating ways she was the only sucka bit look what she got now damn near nothing. Hesrewed her ass big time so there all your work. I have three it aint that hard to boys.
YASS
Correction: He never propose to Chilli they only spoke about it. Major difference. Naomi he dated for about three months and got bored and stopped returning her calls according to media sources. The only person he has propose to is Tameka. Too bad it did not work out. Obviously the bridesmaid and Tameka was not that close friends because what kind of friend screws your husband? There is always two side of the story! But this is not even relevant to this post. I think what Tameka is doing here is wonderful and I wish her all luck with Kile’s world and her future. She deserves to be happy after all that she has been through.
He admitted to proposing to both of them so I guess Usher wrong. He mist dont no he proposed to. and you right not the topic
Kudos to Tameka for honoring her baby…I’m sure Tameka would like for those of you that have a problem with her/her life/her choices/her business to go straight on to hell with gasoline panties on.
LOL!
Hell i’ll help her drive the bus! Damn these miserable females are too much..
Tomeka, you and boys look fantastic. Luv y’all. Frank gurl, you need to stay out of your restaurant…
Guys, this lady lost a child. I don’t think most of us know what that feels like. I’m sure of it.
Dana T.
Rest in heaven Kile. The pics are indeed touching. I cannot imagine even though mine are grown and irk my last losing one. Tough lady and I wish her the best in her efforts to ensure his death was not in vain.
Some of you REALLY need help..what does any of this negativity have to do with her son’s death? What does it have to do with her making something positive out of a tragedy? Are you TRULY that miserable that all you can do is bring up past gossip and bullshit? What does that say about YOU and YOUR character? This woman has moved on and has lived a life you can only dream about, yet so many of you are steady nit picking everything she does, Usher does..even Pitbull’s let go once in a while..Damn y’all need a hug THAT badly???
Only if she didn’t throw red carpet events to honor him, only for attention from the media she seems to need before and after the innocent death of her son, then she would not have to hear the harsh comments. Right ?
LMAO you a mess but its alot of truth to what you say they no it some them flip flop back in forth I never do I stand by what I say I guess since Usher is in Florida with Grace for her birthday Im sure Tameka gonna put some old pics up to try to act like they together I hear she wearing red sneaker all the time and even got the same star tattoo….she is a big ????!!!!!!????? But really hope this fondation is for her son and not money or attention
she’s always had that tat..not sure about the red shoes though sounds like some made up shit
You are reaching. I doubt that she’s copying that foolish shit, he looks whack. That is not the business. Who would care about Usher being in a city with that lady? He’s always with her somewhere. She’s his woman right? Good for them, Florida is lovely.
@LANEY Florida is a state and I guess whe she around she is is cumstain butTameka care thats who it obvoius she do… That why she do the dumb shit she do
Why y’all care about Gracie? Usher has moved on!
Question and this is real talk..What makes you the authority? I’m sure there are people who don’t like you..i’m sure there are things you have done in your past that you wish you didn’t or would just not be mentioned..now regardless if Tameka put herself in the limelight..it doesn’t matter..Now i’m going to ask you to do something you haven’t done..put yourself in her shoes..would it be ok if someone attacked you constantly..if you were walking or driving down the street..pointing and whispering at you? A store..pointing and whispering, some may be so bold to call you out of your name and the worst part is they don’t know you..every day..sun up to sundown..be honest with yourself could you handle it for years??? You try and do something positive, and someone brings up a past that has nothing to do with the event..how would you feel? I don’t want to hear it’s her fault because Tameka’s life is just that HER life..but how would YOU feel??Your life is different from hers, no doubt but could you handle the constant scrutiny??? Or would you just want people to let you live without judging you for every little thing you do?
You are really going to far. No one gives a fuck enough about Tameka to harass her .. I’m just commenting on a blog post for entertainment purposes. If Tameka didn’t create events like this one and send them to blogs, trust me the public would have long forgotten about her.
I’m not going too far..it was a question and you DO care that much you’ve been posting all day about her and NOT on the topic at hand..I must’ve hit a nerve..it’s cool..go ahead and attempt to clap back.. made my point..that’s why you’re so damn defensive..i’m over it
>>>> AlwaysNumberOne sounds like a girlfriend thats mad! Hehe, she knows that she’s the fake, mad chick. She checks in daily to say negative stuff about Tam and Usher. These posts should require a picture. Jealous seeps through every post by her.
What a loser??? Signing in daily to bash another person thats doing the damn thing. I can she this angry black woman all over this blog about Tameka. Women are their own worse enemies.
Who is your ???? For because if Tameka dont want cant take heat she need to get her ass out hte kitchen….. no one brought up her constant with all her constant befonery it clear she still live in past these blawgs are about them they put they self out there and I comment just like you just because i may have flip flop back in forth doesnt mean I have to. I work for an online mag. We have to do shit like this… That how we get our story. I simply do what I need to do I search I read I comment $$$$. I not an expert but I no enough. And if you actually read the comments you would no I wasnt trying disrespect I feel its a good cause..if that what its for but for you to devote your time in someone who has no real claim to fame but be screw by a fag lile Usher than yu need a reality check. I been in and out this business for years. You simply read a blawg or twitter instagram facebook or whatever and swear you know people. Open your eyes or better yet stan for something better than some damn Tamkea Foster Glover Raymond ….. People oose kids everyday it a horrible situation but that doesnt change who a person we hope that it make people better and stronger in Tameka still over there pining over Usha show she has not changed.. And she reguardless to what yu say she is. But other tha that Im good same man since hogh school 3 kids house dog life good over here now how about yu if that ?????was for me
Great Points…
Many Usher worshipers love to dog Tameka but like you stated "put yourself in her shoes"….
You flip fop era….in it my be more bit gwt over it
Chile so much "befonery" on this post!!!! hahahahaha… I can’t…
The fact that yu read make you a bigger bafone
and the fact that you can’t spell worth a damn means you need to worry about self and learn to use spell check! lol
Its a blogs dumb ass who cares if shit is mispelled youtget it silly you read it people suppose to read and comment it uo to yout to feed in to clown
Being illiterate is not cute. Get your ass off the BLOG and go to school. They have english as a second languge classes everywhere…take one…or two…or three!
@Vay its sad that your role model is a broke bish who keep running to Anguilla to get cheap plastic surgery and she still look like a tranny but Im glad she finally thinking about her kids for once and pit together something great for her son honor.. Just hope its not all some in mirrors… And furthermore since yuan keep responding mines you speat illiterate English some dueces bottom feeder…..
Smoke…..
The foundation sounds amazing! If I lived closer, I would send my 12 year old daughter to this. When I hear how Kile was prior to his death, my daughter is just as creative. I swear they could have been identical twins or something. Love it! God Bless Tameka and her babies! I hope this foundation does well!
I couldn’t dare say something about parents or a mother losing her child. My sister lost her child and it was the most pain i’ve ever seen my sister in. My whole family grieved for years with her. May God bless this family and others who have lost someone.
I would just like tip know, how do I donate? I have a son and I don’t even want to imagine the pain she is feeling. This is a great cause and me and my business is more than willing to donate and/or handout fliers to anyone that’ll help. This isn’t about Usher at all. This is about a mother who lost her child, period!
I think I may have mentioned this to y’all, my good friend 17 year old son committed suicide. When I got to her house the day that it happened she was running up and down the street howling and screaming for 2 hours straight. I couldn’t… I’m getting tears in my eyes as I’m trying to share this story, my body aches whenever I’m around her now cause I can feel to some level the pain that she is in. My ENTIRE body aches…
Dana T.
Ugh this is so sad! I can’t even imagine what Tameka is going through… Prayers for all that are affected by this
It’s funny @SB1 claims that Tameka is a bad bitch, but the public never have and never will see her as a bad bitch. Correction : Usher was one of the baddest black men in music.. He is now scraping the bottom just to stay in the lame light . I must say that I have never seen someone with Usher’s level of sucess, fame and respect in music to fall so hard. I know he must be embarrassed. But I must say he can only blame hisself, he did it to hisself. He went from being a leader and RnB, to being called a Sell Out, that has to be a hard pill to swallow. He went from being called the next MJ to Frankie Lamen.
ALWAYSNUMBERONE IS always obsessed and can not spell worth a damn. Girlfriend you care way too much. Tameka is bad too many, so what if a girlfriend, ex, jump off, or angry fan doesn’t agree- you fit the mold of all potentially.
You really care about Usher (ahh sweet) and are so mad at Tameka, the fact id he married her, loved her, made 2 beautiful kids with her, divorced her, now its time for your angry bird ass to move on as well. Tameka didn’t make that man fall off, he did. He went from hot music to techno hell, nobody likes that ishh and he keeps making that flop shit not her. He made Love in this Club with her and now is making whiten high man music. BLAME HIM! I do. You need help or a release to get over it boo, he didn’t marry YOU. Move on. She seems to be fine and this post is about her sons foundation not an Usher marriage. Focus on the facts, your a obsessed clown, your horns are showing. Sad part this is probably another one of her friends. Hoes be losing with that snake flow. smh
