I hope it isn’t over yet. I would really like to know what really happened between Chris Stokes and these young men. It’s been how long since B2K broke up. They are adults now so recanting just doesn’t ring true to me. I can see a child doing that out of fear but a young adult. Sometimes a 22 year old can have the mentality of a 16 year old. If that’s the case the group is all he knows and once that was gone he could have been feeling abandoned, alone and hopeless which in turn could lead to depression and a desire to reconnect with something or someone familiar (even an abuser). It sounds wacky but it happens. This situation is very complicated and for those boys I pray that it gets resolved. They will need extensive counseling and unconditional support.

And for those of you sharing a little bit of yourself online you are survivors. Please refer to yourself as a survivor. It’s much more empowering to be a survivor versus a victim. In addtion, being a victim implies you’re currently in the situation.

NYC_Chic:

that’s a great point about the custody. Yeah, his mom signed over custody of Raz over to stokes. That usually ends at age 21. And he’s 22, so he was just released. WOW. So, he was forced…my heart goes out to Raz. And I wonder what the situation was with the other dudes. It seems to me like they all came from broken homes.

According to the videos, his mom signed custody over the Stokes while she was trying to kick her drug addiction. And it seems to me, given the nature of this dude, he probably got her high to take advantage of her and her situation.

I don’t know why. I’m a little older than the B2K generation, but I really want to understand this story. He really touched my heart when he said he was being molested and just seeing how he was handling it in the video clips, I really admire that dude. I was mad for a sec because it seemed he lied, but this thing is REALLY complicated.

I definitely will support this dude if he comes out with his book. He has a great voice and I just know he’ll make good music – he has something of value to say.

I have a feeling they were wearing a wire. I really don’t think this is over yet. I think they are trying to gather solid evidence against Chris by pretending it’s all good. This will rear its head again. *No pun intended* Hee-Hee!

and I don’t blame them one bit for how they did it. Sometimes you have to fight grime with grime.

The ultimate goal here was to obtain exclusive rights to the B2K trademark. I think that is what the ‘pay off’ was. See, Stokes swindled management rights of B2K out of someone else’s hands. Stokes took and held exclusive rights to the group and most of their profits, even though it wasn’t HIM that created the group. The three guys Raz-B, Lil Fiz, and J Boog established that group, before Omarion. B2K is still a profitable trademark; they wanted to reorganize under that, but this time they wanted to keep their earnings and not hand them over the TUG/Stokes. And, I suppose, they’ve grown out of getting felt up in order to establish any negotiating leverage with sick ass Stokes. They’re men, now, not children.

That’s what all of this was really about. They just used “the truth” to get Stokes to budge. They didn’t lie about the molestation/rape claims, they just reneged a bit to cover themselves legally. The meet up at Mr. Chows was them merely catering to Stokes’ demented psyche. “We love each other, man!”. Sure it’s love, as defined by Stokes. They’ve been playing the game on his terms all this time, but the tables have now turned.

The molestation thing with Stokes won’t end here. And I think when the R. Kelly trial finally goes into session, this issue will come up again.

HE RAPED THEM BOTH!!!! WE ALL KNOW THIS!!! THEY ARE NOT LYING ON HIM. I’M SURE CHRIS THREATENED THEM TO SAY HE DIDN’T RAPE THEM BECAUSE HIS NAME IS ON THE LINE. NO “STRAIGHT” MAN WOULD LIE NATIONALLY AND SAY HE WAS RAPED BY ANOTHER MAN OR COUSIN, FOR WHAT…COME ON NOW,, MR.CHOWS. I’M SURE HE CALLED THE PAPS TO COME OUT AND HAVE A SHOW. HE WAS REALLY CLOSE TO GOING TO JAIL. IT IS ALL A SET UP. CHRIS STROKES IS A GAY ASS MOLESTER. REMEMBER HE MADE IMMATURE LOOK LIKE GIRLS WITH PRESSED HAIR AND MAC LIPGLOSS, THAT WHY THEY LOST THEIR FAN BASE IN THE FIRST PLACE. I KNOW HE THREATENED THEM TO ACT AS IF THEY WERE LYING. I BELIEVE THE INITIAL ALLIGATIONS. CHRIS STROKES IS LIKE A GAY SUGE KNIGHT. I’M FROM THE HOOD I KNOW THEM PERSONALLY!

I believe there was some form of sexual contact. If you are innocent of molestation charges and some one accuses you, more than likely you hate that person for their false accusation. If you are molested by someone more than likely you hate them for the molestation. I smell a lovers quarrel that was resolved. That said love with a 12 year old is molestation. What they’re going through now however seems like a willing homosexual relationship.
