Step up Al!

Hey …he needs to be a father…..

If its in God’s will for him then he will see his father but its not in his hands anymore and never really was…..just keep livin ya life and keep ya head up things will come to pass when they are suppose to

Cant he just call him????

Oh STFU…….Quincy

Well stated my friend, and you are absolutely correct—time will heal all wounds!!

sad his dad was so proud to floss da other big lip son on that vh1 show why cant he take care of the 1 who looks like his twin sad ill give alb sure THE DEADBEAT DADDY AWARD thanks diddy for being a father 2 him

Doesn’t Al live in LA? Doesn’t Quincy live in LA with his mom? Duh, Quincy just get in your Range ROver or you Lincoln you got for your birthday and go see him. Or hell if you aint got gas money catch the RTD.

Matter of Fact youput him on blast on the internet, why not call up his radio show and talk to him directly?

Yall know Al. B. is coming out with a new CD sometime in the next few months. ummmm makes you wonder.

I hope Quincy reads this blog because his words really hit home with me as a single parent. If anything Puff should be given mad credit for is raising another mans seed. With that being said, Al really needs to step his motherf****** game up. SMH @ being embarrassed and put on blast via the internet by your kid. Al could have avoided all of this by simply being responsible.

Cant he just call him????
______________

LOL I was thinking the same thing but u know we aint dealin with regular folk….

All this young man is doing is letting go of the pain and shame of not knowing a parent to spread his wings to become a better man. He is not letting his past dictate his future and he deserves prasie for that, it is not easy getting over past pain all by yourself. He has decided to listen to his faith over his fears to believe in something more rewarding to come. I really enjoyed his rap because I know that pain of an abandoned father and I too do not want my past to have more power over my life then my future.

@ TB..
-You may have a point with Quincy not wasting his time with his pops but all kids want some sort of relationship with their absent biological parent until they realize that its probably a waste of effort. Another point you made is how good of a fatherly role model is Puff with him publicly doggin Kim they way he does….SMH

STOP CRYING QUINCY, YOU HAD PUFF. KEEP THAT PERSONAL STUFF TO YOURSELF NO NEED TO WHINE ABOUT IT ALL THE TIME.

HE EMBARRASSED HIS FATHER PUBLICLY AND THEN HE EXPECT TO HEAR FROM HIM,LOL I KNOW AL B SURE SHOULD HAVE BEEN THERE REGARDLESS OF THE FACT THAT HE WASN’T THERE BECAUSE KIM PORTER WAS SLEEPING WITH DIDDY HIS FRIEND FROM WHEN QUINCY WAS A BABY AND THAT TURNED HIM OFF, BUT HE SHOULD HAVE STILL COME AND SEE HIS SON…

BUT ANYWAY I WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED IF AL B SURE NEVER SPEAKS TO THIS BOY AGAIN BECAUSE THE BOY EMBARRASSED HIM PUBLICLY…AND I DON’T UNDERSTAND WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON BECAUSE ALL YEAR I SAW HIM AND AL B SURE TOGETHER SO WHY THE HELL HE DIDN’T TELL HIM THIS STUFF TO HIS FACE, I’M NOT SURE IF QUINCY TRYING TO GET STUFF OFF HIS CHEST OR IF HE TRYING TO BE A RAPPER ANYWAY, GOOD LUCK TO ALL PARTIES…

FATHERS BE IN YOUR CHILDRENS LIFE NO MATTER IF YOU HATE THE MOTHER OR NOT..

AL.B SURE IS NOT A REAL MAN ITS SAD BUT WE ARE LEFT TO BE THE MOMMYS AND DADDYS TO THESE KIDS WHEN A BOY WANTS TO PRETEND TO BE A MAN HES A COWARD AND HE NEED TO BE THERE FOR HIS SON AND NOT LET ANOTHER DAY PASS WITH OUT HIM HE NEEDS HIS DAD NO ONE WILL EVER REPLACE THE FACT THAT HE WILL ONLY HAVE ONE BIOLOGICAL DAD AL. B SURE DONT LET THIS SITUATION FALL END BAD LIKE UR CAREER

it’s tough that he has to put a letter on the internet to get his father’s attention

sometimes you gotta let people go, even if your father was a has-been singer that couldn’t hit a note if it was stapled to his vocal chords

At least he is the bigger person in this situation! Let go and let GOD take care of the rest!

P “Shitty” Diddy is behind this!!

Although I do sympathize with Quincy, I think this is a PRIVATE matter and should be dealt with in private. Posting letters on the internet didn’t help much did it Q?

i feel bad for him but at least he has somebody. diddy was a father to him damn near all his life. some ppl dont even have that, so i think he needs to bite the bullet and face the fact that his father isnt going to be there…its hard but youll get used to it

@ Taylor Kim or any other woman can not stop a man from seeing his child! That is what the courts are for. He has a legal right to see his child and EVERY man should exercise that right. Too often men don’t want to deal with the women….and forget that the child needs them.

Can anybody see that Diddy is behind the whole thing c’mon they have to push the record some kinda way. POISON!!!!!!!

dead beat dads are not cool…Lil Q is a well spoken young man and I am glad that he isnt letting his father’s absence discourage him from doing something positive. Most people would have used it as an excuse.

For ALL the jackazzs who think Diddy is behind this sound so Stupid…..Diddy is about making money and staying in the game. How the hell is he going to make money by having Quincy write bad things about Al B??????? Think before you commnet…please.

The truth is…even though his biological father wasn’t physically in Quincy’s life…AL B. still has impacted his life where he wants to be a better person because of Al B.

AND YOU KNOW THE CRAZY THING WAS I DIDN’T EVEN KNOW DUDE WAS COMING OUT WITH AN ALBUM, I THOUGHT HE HAD JUST WROTE THAT LETTER CAUSE HE WAS MAD SO WHEN I SAW THIS I WAS LIKE OFF THE RIP, LIKE THIS DUDE MUST HAVE AN ALBUM COMING OUT, READ THE STORY AND LIKE I THOUGHT DUDE COMING OUT WITH A ALBUM, THATS SAD P SHITTY, I BET YOU EVEN PAID HIS DAD NOT TO SAY ANYTHING

I hear what some of you are saying, about why didn’t he handle this issue personally instead of making it public knowledge.

Maybe it could be that Al B is truly a deadbeat. Quincy calls, he talks to him for a few minutes on the phone then Al has something more important to do, so he tells him he’ll get back to him and never does. Who knows what their personal relationship is like and why he did this. Maybe someone should ask Quincy that.

Anyway, Al B is a sad, sorry excuse for a man. The fact that Quincy can even SAY the stuff he’s saying about him, be it privately or publicly, makes this so.

OMG!!! “he embarrassed his father”, “he should get over it, it’s not a new thing to be without a father”. I can’t believe some of these comments. Al B sure should be embarrassed and whether or not its not a new thing, children are inherently created with a need for both parents. Thats the way the Almighty created us. Yes when you have a deadbeat parent you may have to move on and try to heal, but the need for that parent in your life lingers. Just because he’s rich doesn’t mean he shouldn’t won’t his father in his life. How many of you would trade your parents for all the things in the world?

Just because you are use to seeing something does not make that permanent action unless you give it that kind of power. If we as the now generation take this issues as normal them when we have kids it will be there normal we have to find a way to stop our parent pass mistakes by not making them a family legacy. yes plenty of us grow up with out a father that does not mean that when I have a child I am going to have well my baby mostly like will not have a father attitude. I am going to give that part extra focus in hope that my child can evade that old truth for a new truth.

I spent alot of time with Quincy and Al.B last year and I can say this Al loves Q to death. I’m not with them 24-7 however I know that Al is a good father and I didn’t see anything that would lead me to believe that Al is a deadbeat. Q shoul dhave handled this one behind closed doors. You don’t correct a problem by putting it all over the internet.

I don’t know the circumstances to that issue. It sounds a little fishy that Al B Sure has 3 other children he takes care of but not Quincy. There is more to this story. Even if he is a deadbeat dad for his Diddy and his mother to allow him to send a letter like that is so unprofessional and bad advice. When he turns 18 then thats fine but at what 16 thats not acceptable.

You guys really going to take the word of a child that has had everything handed to him on a silver spoon, P Diddy, and his baby mother whose claim to fam was sleeping and having children by celebrities.

Don’t give me no model crap either…she been in the groupy game for a minute – best believe she is probably getting more child support than she deserves. Especially dropping diddy’s twins…that woman is set for at least another 18 years.

@ Taylor

Damn how many baby mamas you got?

I know good and dang on well this little boy did not write this letter. This is the work of some publicist. Does he have a new CD coming out or something?

WOW….He should get over it….? WTF?

Pretty Wings by Maxwell!!!!!

I feel for him, but I can’t stand it when people put all of their business out in the street. His father is alive, talk to him, what’s all this sh** about? Puff was there financially, but come on, what I see and know about Puffy is not all good. This young man has a lot of maturing to do. I wish him the best, because he really needs to talk to somebody.

I am just wonder are the people that are saying that he should get over it people that are currently or have dealt with this situation personally. I find that people who do not know what it is like talk the most and the loudest and don’t really know Shit. Growing up without a complete man or woman parent is a lot on any person because they created you but are not around to love and teach you. It is something that you will hold true for the rest of your life unless someone cares enough to not do the world normal. To abandoned everything for your own personal selfish satisfaction.

I think it is good he is venting. I mean kids just keep stuff like that bottled up and they end up doing terrible things like suicide. This is just his way of expressing himself. Life isn’t all about money. People on here are trif for thinking thats why he likes puffy. Has anyone heard of quality time.

Sometime you should do it in quiet because people will always give out what is easy the negative. People are quick to say just deal with it or get over it but not even that advice is supportive or positive. I just wish him the best he will be alright because he is very taken care of but emotionally he can still be damaged.

yeah, q dont my support on this one. he should have handled this privately.. you dnt reash out your dad over the internet.. that is just sad.. most pics i have seen of him, he is with his dad and thye look happy..i dnt think he is a deadbeat dad but might have been there as much as liked due to his mama and piddys shananigans..there more this and just wish he would stop posting his private eish all over the internet..Besides, what was the song for???i smell someone who is just trying to establish himself under diddy’ bad guidence…

portia

Great point I agree 100% brushing things under the table never solves anything and what you bury alive never lies.

@Resurrected

I don’t think anyone is saying get over it in a cruel way. For one, we don’t know all the details, only what Q is saying. And yes it is hurtful when a father is not positively involved in their childs life. Q is still young and if this is truly hurting him, why did he feel the need to publicly air his grievence with Al?

There are many of us that grew up w/o our fathers, but there are those that did too. Those that didn’t, such as myself, choose not to use that as a crutch to keep us from excelling in our future endeavors. I’m cool with my dad now but I will always feel a empty spot in me where he should’ve been until the day I die cuz it STILL hurts.

I feel for Quincy if it’s genuine, but I don’t like the way he went about it.

@Sanjor

“Yes when you have a deadbeat parent you may have to move on and try to heal, but the need for that parent in your life lingers. Just because he’s rich doesn’t mean he shouldn’t won’t his father in his life. How many of you would trade your parents for all the things in the world?”

Very insightful statement — “Daddy hunger” is a real emotion that affects many children whose fathers are not in their lives. And no amount of wealth, travel around the world, parties with high rollers, etc., can replace the presence of a parent.

On another note, it does surprise me that this schism between Quincy and Al B. is continuing in the public sphere. Why is Kim allowing this? This is a very private matter, and it sounds like some family counseling is in order.

Only reason I man would want this to be dealt with privately is because he has never took the time to make his feel love publicly. No one ever really does things as you want them to and this situation is no different. His life, his problem and he dealt with it the way that best fix him. I call that courage and everyone does not have that ability.

No, Q this sound like a pitch also. The first letter stated Diddy was your father but as a read this one you call Al B your dad and father if you was so HURT and Diddy you was claiming to be your father has all went down the drain for me. You could have said Al I love you or any thing but you put DAD and FATHER so this tell me who you really feel is your father/ dad which is Al B. SURE

Whao

It should not be used as a crutch but he is 16 not full grown and he way do dealing with it is to vent and I don’t see nothing wrong with that. I think he is doing much better than the people who hold it all in. it only can and will create dyfunctions and very negative patterns until you have good guidance and unconditional love form some where.

*especially black women

What is the best way to go about addressing a parent who has never really shown there presence. if the parent on it own has never address it or came back to see there child that is an area in which one has not matured so him addressing it in person would not have ended well. What you do not take the time to address when confronted will only bring out anger and defensiveness. How do you really talk to someone like that about deepm feeling you can’t

Whoa

It start frist with the selection but people have ah habit of creating what they really do not want to deal with. All I am saying child mimic parent even dyfunctional ones. You children are a sum of the environemnt that you created form them and Qunicy is no acception.

Is this not the same kid that was on that singing reality show with Al B sure and he cant sing at all. Al was there until Quincy was kicked off. Go sit down kid this is to try and get your NON SINGING career going. YOU CANT SING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whoa

I am also 30 with no kids trying to wait on GOD promised for my life and trying not to settle for less. Not easy but very possible.

Um, Quincy needs to stop. I have seen pictures of him with his dad many of times. He was at his dad’s birthday party last year. The letter was just a way for him to get sympathy and attention.

I wonder what is really going on between Al B, Quincy and Diddy.

There has to be more to this than meets the eye. Either way, I feel for any child that is missing a parent in their life for any reason.

@Sasha – No he wasn’t the one that competed on the show, that was another one of Quincy’s sons. But Quincy was there with his dad in the audience cheering his brother on.

@Whoa!

I’m black so there is no racism in this, it is a fact. Look it up, majority of the children that come from black communities come from single parent homes. Everyone knows this. I am a black person that doesn’t want to hear excuses from other black people. Obama didn’t make excuses as a matter of fact he also stated that this is a big problem in our community then you had Jesse Jackson being heard on television whispering to someone saying how he’s tired of him putting black people down. Why is it that when the problems that we keep creating for ourselves are put on front street it’s a put down or racism? I know why because people want to avoid the obvious and shift truth, we need to get away from this or it will never be fixed. If this was any other race of people, when morals and family values are played with, they would hold a conference on the this mess post haste, forget the bs.

@ Everyone
Pretty Wings by Maxwell is a beautiful song!!!!!

@ soul woman

Thanks I was wondering !

@Portia I agree! The only ones stating this shouldn’t be done publicly are probably dead beat fathers themselves.

Truth is most Black Men are deadbeat fathers! Fact, signed, sealed, delivered. There are some white deadbeats, but the precentage is crazy in the black community.

It’s time to try something different, they should be embarrassed. I FEEL THE SAME ABOUT EDDIE MURPHY and DIddy(with the lil girl in ATL). Love ALL OF YOUR KIDS THE SAME, you made them the same way…..
– by mis-calculating the next to the last pump!!

@Sydney
I agree, I don’t know why his mother would let him take this route. She should have had him in counseling a long time ago.

@Portia

I should’ve explained myself more. I am NOT the type to holler racism. I know much of the problems that black people are in is by their own doing. I am a firm believer in yuo reap what you sow and being responsible your own actions.

With that being said, I wish people would stop adding in Obama everytime we’re talking about black issues. Yadda yada yea we have a man of African descent in office but that doesn’t stop cops from whippin our asses, locking us up, crumbling school facilities in our neighborhoods, poor diets, and black-on-black crime.

I truly believe there is NO excuse for a father to not involve themselves in every aspect of their childs life. But whether you believe it or not, there is a racist system/machine that has been put in place for black men to fail and too many succumb to it because it’s SO easy to give up. Especially when you don’t feel like a man but a failure.

When these black men leave it to the woman to raise their sons alone, we get a society full of (not all) mama-boys and lazy men.

And I am in no way defending dead beat males (cuz they ain’t men).

Sookie, there’s really no such thing as a publicity stunt.

Either you’re a dishonest person to the point that you can’t see anything clearly, and/or you don’t know the laws of the universe.

Words are powerful. When one speaks something, it becomes true.

The world is all about sharing, and that’s what this young man has to share with us, because that’s what he has spent a high percentage of his time thinking about =)

You’ll get it one day.

who gives a rats ass…

Al, please talk to your son!

@ Silken Dove

lmao.

someday i hope you ‘get it’.

I feel so bad for this kid. My father wasn’t always right, but he was always right there.

Al B. Sure is no different then about 75% of the male population.

diddy is your dad and your mom gets child support checks out the azz!!!! shut the f*** up and stop whining!!! at least you have a father figure in your life plus you have a mother. try living under a household making $30,000 a year and see if you’ll be happier!!!! spoiled punk azz looking for attention.

I’m just throwin’ this in for free, don’t cost nothin… –
STOP having BABY DADDIES DAMMIT! How bout a freaking ring and a name change? I understand this does not mean that the man is going to be around, but the odds are DAMN SURE much better than the alternative…
Mothers, black mothers especially, need to be more choosy about who they opt to bring a life into this world with… Have a child by a bum, and then when he acts like a damn bum, you’re mad??!! That makes no sense to me… Some people create their own hell, and relegate their own kids to this ^^^ (Q’s letter) kind of bullshit….

The bottom line is that his mother chose to chase Diddy’s $ and forgot all about how this is affecting her son or even care. OK, so he has siblings on both sides and he’s apparently feeling somekind of way because he’s not the center of attention becuase his mom is all concerned about Diddy and those moneymakers!! So he lashes out at Al because he’s seeing that his mom is a pro babymama!! who never really took the time to nurture him.

@Missunderstood

COSIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGN!!!!

OMG Missunderstood is ON POINT!!!!

He is so coureageous for speaking out. He is intelligent, articulate and mature. I hope that time truly does heal the hole in his heart. Every child needs their father. It must have been especially difficult for him however, Kim Porter and his other influences appear to have done a fine job in raising him.

A 16yr old with a celebrity father (yes I know he is broke – but Al B. Sure has made his mark in the industry) and his groupie azz mother (and I am sure she is a good mother????) should not write letters in the public eye about his father. When he is 18 do all the interviews you want..but this is just plan unacceptable. Where is groupie mom and Diddy – oh wait..they are not the greatest role models huh?

A step dad that has ran up in half the women in the world and a mother who has had half the world run up in her. (dayum that was messed up) I asked the lord to forgive me on that last comment that was really ugly of me. Seriously.

I (seriously) hope this is a cry for some reconcilation between a father and a son..because for this to be some sort of publicity stunt for music is a really sad situation.

I love it!!! I wish every son and daughter would put their deadbeat dads on blast, maybe then some of these men will start to man up! It’s a horrible thang for a child to grow up without a father. All they have to do is call and say “Hey son or daughter, I want you to know that I love you and if you need anything, you can call me. Life is tough for me right now for a variety of reasons, but you are the one great thing in my life.” And make frequent calls, once a week to check in and say I love you, just thinking about you. It’s that simple men!

Misunderstood, you’re right on the money. If women would STOP having babies by every man they have a sexual encounter with, we’d have less of these problems. Sure, the guy should wear protection for his own self, but ultimately women are choosing to bring children into the world by someone they hardly know or just met or slept with once or even if they dated for some years, YOU DON’T HAVE TO HAVE HIS BABY!!! And what about disease..if you’re not protecting yourself from babies, you’re certainly not protecting against disease and we wonder why our community has such a high rate of HIV…can we PLEASE STOP AND THINK!!!!!!!!!!!

To be honest, this kid broke my heart, not once but twice. You can feel his disappointment and pain thru his typed words. It’s amazing how brothas just leave there kids to be raised by other men or the ex. It’s disgusting to me, that is your damn flesh and blood, and your responsible for their safety and upbringing.

I have lost ALL respect for al B Sure.

We all need to get together and contact the radio station he works at, and curse him out.

He is Disgusting and a horrible father.

Not to be mean but really, this guy needs to sit down. Whatever is going on is personal and private. It should be handled as such.
For those that are so moved, be apart of a solution instead of just loosly commenting. Volunteer with your local Big Brother/Big Sister Chapter or better yet, pick up the slack of your own deadbeat brothers/sisters kids! SMDH

This is more the norm in our community, minus the sweet 16 party at which this cat got TWO high end cars!

I understand the need to heal, and in the process you should write down your feelings to express your emotions, but he should have never posted this information. He’s going to regret this in the future. I’m sure he doesn’t have all the information to make an informed decision at 18-20 years old.

Both parents in this case are the reason for Quincy’s letter, but children tend to still more empathy toward their mom than their father. As for Al I’m sure he’s going to have some excuse like, “I didn’t have my dad in my life so I didn’t know how to be a father” or some lame excuse. I’m all for putting these parents being put on blast for doing less than great jobs with their children

I applaud this articulate young man for speaking publicly about the pain of growing up without his biological father. It’s clear he needs to get it all off his chest so he can begin the healing process. Good luck on your Journey Q. It is very apparent that you are well loved and have a strong support system. Let them and HIM be your guide on the road to forgiveness.

I really feel sorry for this kid. Perhaps this is a private matter, but he’s young and seems be trying to deal with this the best way he can. And so what if Al B. Sure is embarrassed…HE SHOULD BE. The child did not choose to be here; he’s here because of the actions of his birth parents and they are BOTH responsible for his upbringing. We as adults can shrug off his experience when compared to our own much longer span of life experience. But he is just trying to find his way to manhood without the very man that gave him life. Only life experience can diminish the need he has for Al B. He’s doing the best he can with what he has, and is channeling his disappointment a LOT better than many young men his own age.

Quincy, my heart goes out to you. My kids have a dead beat dad to. Nothing can change them its just in their blood to be only OUT FOR THEIRSELF aka SELFISH and not concerned for their kids. No excuses. Does not matter if Puf has more cash flow than ABS. It just takes love from the dad not the $$$$.
Give thanks for a loving mom and to Puf that stepped up to the table and took care of you.
Q – just start the healing and don’t look at the bad.

Bad karma is finally catching up with the ABS the elf hiding in the wolf’s costume. People need ta get the straight scoop before confessing your loyalty to someone they don’t know just because he looks good and innocent. ABS and me go back many years. From 1 hand experience I know how he will use anyone he can even his kids. Thank the mighty Lord that Quincy and Lit’ have Puf to step up to the plate.
AB– No sea engañado por un Woolf en la ropa de oveja!

Being a mother of 2.5 children (1 child for 3 different fathers) One from a previous relationship, one I was married to his father and now married to a great man who I am pregnant for. I can honestly see both sides. As a mother of two kids with absent fathers and a being a daughter of a man that was there physically and financially but not there any other way, I only know what I went through and going through. My oldest baby’s father used to come around every now and then but as of a year ago, he stopped completely (no calls, no childsupport, no nothing)- people always ask me about how I feel about it and I said, well my kid knows and I don’t have to talk about it – when the time is right,he’ll decide to have his relationship – ya know to either reach out to him or not -I will not bash his dad for anything because he will make his own mind up when he get’s older. Men and some women have to realized that childsupport is not payment to see your child – you have to have that bond or you will miss out on the best time of their lives. My second kid, his dad lives in another state and he gets to see him not that often. He will also have that same choice when he gets older and I also will guide them and not bash their fathers even though they treated me bad or wasn’t in their lives. As for my father, he was there in my life but wasn’t there -let me explain, he was living at home as a family with my mom and siblings. He’ll get off work and go straight in his room and close the door. He wouldn’t talk to us or anything. As an adult, he’s still the same – my parents been seperated for 12 years now and he doesn’t talk to us at all. I had a brother who died at the age of 23 in a car accident and he still didn’t show emotion or comfort. Men have different ways of dealing with things and even though he doesn’t reach out – I haven’t given up – I am not giving up on him – I call him from time to time and make that move to visit him when I can (which is not that often). Just don’t give up – live your life -try to be a better parent whether you have kids or not.

@MARY, VOICE OF REASON. PDIDDY HAS WAY MORE TO DO THAN WORRY ABOUT A PUNK LIKE AL B SURE! STUPID AZZ’S

Quincy is the ADULT here. Al B Sure is the CHILD.
I cannot beleive the man still has not reached out to his son and just becoz a few pics float around the internet does NOT a father make! Rumor has it Quincy could not get ABS to pick up tha damn phone!

Ummmm., there is no way this is a publicity stunt. Deadbeat title will stick with you forever. ABS must be in hiding if he has any morals at all.

Bad karma is finally catching up with the ABS the elf hiding in the wolf’s costume. People need ta get the straight scoop before confessing your loyalty to someone they don’t know just because he looks good and innocent. ABS and me go back many years. From 1 hand experience I know how he will use anyone he can even his kids. Thank the mighty Lord that Quincy and Lit’ have Puf to step up to the plate.
AB– No sea engañado por un Woolf en la ropa de oveja!

Ruby Red, you defintly know Al.

Insider industry truth you do not know the truth. Possibley Quincy was pushed to a point where he was so hurt his only recourse was to lash out loud. maybe this was his only way of getting his blood father’s attn. maybe he blood father only cares about his fame so Quincy hit him where it hurts. he idd not have to write that letter for publicity. he got the Pdiddy machine behind him. The boy was hurt and seems like he was abandoned before and then had high hopes and then abandoned again if you listen to his song. money cannot replace any blood fathers love. I know from experience. from waht i hear about al b sure he is selfish and out for himself maybe he need to step up and make things rite with Quincy since he should be the adult.

@ CERO, NO WAY! ABS WOULD HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH DIDDY ON HIS RECORD. HIDDEN BEACH IS DOIN IT AND ABS WOULD NEVER WANT A DEADBEAT IMAGE ASSOCIATED WITH HIM. TRUST ME. THIS IS DEEP AND ABS IS HURT.
HE HAS QUINCY PICS ALL OVER HIS FACEBOOK AND MYSPACE.

Let the little dude vent. Diddy did not put him up to it. Quincy’s actions and feelings are completely normal. Those of you that can’t relate need to look within yourselves. Al B. lost and should be embarrassed/ashamed.

Just because someone is on a show with thier kid doe s not make them a father. maybe al b sure wanted to be on the show for his own publicity? we should hear both sides. you are right. but to hear al b sure has not even called his son since the last letter makes me to beleive Quincy more. al b seem to have an ego and it is all about him. that is the word in the biz

Dude probably did what his brothers would like to do as well.

this kid is very articulate and smart
and i wish him all the best in the world and just know that if your father-or anybody for that matter- is not man/woman enough to step up and except responsibility for their actions or absence then they don’t deserve you!

I am glad Quincy told the truth about his father. I know he is probably annoyed when people are always telling him how much he looks like his father. Now the secret is out that they are estranged I hope he can try to heal from the pain of abandonment. Quincy does have somethings to be grateful for. Things could of been a lot worse.

People are always faulting men for not being in the lives of children. Has anyone ever thought about the women who put their children in these positions? There are plenty of women who get pregnant and have kids in order to hold onto men. Not saying the man is completely resolved from blame because he did empower that woman by sleeping with her without protection. All I am saying is, consider both sides of the story people…
That woman steps up and raise that child because she has to but she also made the decision to have that child. There are too many preventative measures so women need to step up and be responsible for their actions as well.

luvyouquincy

I HAD a dead beat father. I understand his pain, but I would write the letter to him and face him. Not write it to the public. It’s nott as if Quincy had no idea of who his father is, he knows who he is. He has seen him. There just not close. I had the exact same relationship with my father so I know how he feels. I had to grow up and realize it was his loss. As wrong as my father was I always respected him whenever he chose to come around and I would never disrespect him or humiliate him. (especially not publically when its really not needed.) This kid has an album coming out. or somethng! lol

If you think for one second those are his words and he worded that without aid from a PR or writer or something your a fool.lol

A Womand Point Of view…

AMEN AMEN AMEN!!!

WHY ARENT PEOPLE CALLKING KIM OUT? WHAT IS HER ROLE IN THIS? WHY WOULD SHE TELL HIM ITS A GOOD IDEA TO PUBLICLALLY PUT THEY BUSINESS OUT? WHY DID SHE STAY WITH PUFF ALL THOSE YEARS WHEN HE CHEATED ON HER, HAD OUTSIDES BABIES, LEFT HER FOR JLO ECT ECT!! THE LIST GOES ON AND YOU CAN SEE WHAT KINDA WOMAN YOUR DEALIN WITH! LOL

CONSIDER BOTH SIDES…KIM PROBABLY WANTED AL B SURE GONE, TO EX HIM.SOME WOMEN ARE LIKE THAT. SHE MAY HAVE MADE IT THAT WAY CAUSE SHE WANTED IT TO BE THAT WAY. KARMAS A B*TCH! OF COURSE DIDDY ENDED UP MAKIN A FOOL OF HER! LOL

Quincy i fully understand your point about not seeing or being close to your dad. But i am sure you have his phone number to call him. so let’s not make this all about your dad. be truth to your self, if diddy was not rich and your mom did choose another person that you didnt get along with. I am 100% sure you would of call or make sure you find your dad. my advice to you is to grow up and help your dad find you and then both of you’ll will grow together. also keep your business of the internet its not a good look. much respect

I cannot agree with “outing” your dad like this. No matter what he has or has not done to you. He is your blood. Al B Sure will have to live with this the rest of his life. all the stares and gossip. you should have addressed him personally. It seems the apple does not fall far from the tree in this bloodline.

Oh Brother, Ya’ll commenting and none of you know the biz. I can tell you this “Karma” Al B “Karma”

Treasure, Yea it must be annoying to look exactly like the person who turned his back on you and continues to every time.

I have to give my props to the handler. (womans point of view and industry insider truth)you both hit the nail right on the head. there is more to his letter that he is saying and not telling the whole truth. and his mom should of school him better than that. but instead she is busy running after diddy and making a fool of herself.

Diddy, Al B Sure!, Quincy, Baby mama baby drama. LAWD, these fools are crazy. I would not trade my life with them for one minute money or not. they have no values or morals. not a one of them.

FELIX! YOUR STUPID! HOW THE BOY GONNA CALL HIS DAD WHEN HIS DAD DOES NOT RETURN HIS CALLS? THAT IS THE POINT, NICCA DOES NOT RETURN HIS SONS CALLS AND IGNORES THEM!

MONEY CANNOT REPLACE A FATHERS LOVE! GROW UP PEOPLE AND GIVE THIS BOY PROPS! DEADBEATS ARE A BIG PROBLEM AND FINALLY SOMEONE HAS THE COURAGE TO SPEAK THE TRUTH. MAYBE QUICNY IS TIRED OF ABS ACTING LIKE A FATHER TO THE MEDIA BUT DISAPPEARING IN REAL LIFE!

…another loser, dead beat, father…

…SMDH!…

…President Obama hopefully can teach black men that to step up and be fathers to their children is neither a fete, accomplishment nor a favor…

…it’s a f*cking EXPECTATION!…

.

What a clown! Looks like a 10 year old!

BOOWHo I want my daddy

Say what you want about Kim Porter, this young man is proof she is an good mother to produce such a intelligent and thoughtful young man.

@Marquis de Sade

I’m ready, I think… lol… but one thing -

What the heck is Kigali?

God bless you, Quincey. You are more of a man than your sorry behind dad.

THERE IS A SPECIAL PLACE IN HELL FOR DEAD-BEAT DADS!

Well, at least U had a SWEET 16 episode on MTV, courtesy of DiddY!!!! How many black kids can say that?? Get over it, you turned out just fine whether AL B. was there or not. You just dont know how blessed u are kiddo, let it go.

You can see by the ignorant comments on this site how people are so manipulated by money. Money does not solve all your problems folks! This boy has just as much a right to be angry with his absent father as the boy in the ghetto. Love is Love and pain is pain. Money don’t have anything to do with it. I applaud Quincy for speaking from his heart.

No longer a AL B. FAn I dont Support man who dont support they kids! He better not show his face.

co-sign @ Obama

This child needs his father, and no amount of money can substitute for that experience or dull the pain of not having it.

Quincy your father is losing out on a magnificent young man and a special time in your life. Soon you’ll be a man. If he doesn’t respond, recognize it is his loss not yours. I have a friend who is 28y/o and still devasted by the fact that her father was not there for her emotionally.

What some people don’t recognize is sometimes money can’t replace a hug or encouragement. You want and need to understand his personality, hobbies, strengths, and deficits.
She eventually found out that her father was upset that her mother moved on to a man that would stand up and be a Father…you see a father doesn’t have to be related by blood. He is there when your sick, being good acting up and growing up. Stay focused on your goals and realize how fortunate you are. Also it is not your fault. Something has to be wrong with Al not to be there with you every step of the way.

People can say what they want about your parents relationship, but basing on the way you express yourself I can ‘read’ that they did a great job. I sincerely hope that your father reaches out to you in God speed.

Yes Quincy is venting about Al not being in his life, obviously Al doesn’t want to be bothered by Quincy or Kim. Diddy, even though he isn’t Quincy’s biological father was in his life. However, if Al really wants to reach out to Quincy he should do it now it’s never too late to bond with your kid.

I’m your daddy? I ain’t so sure!

Man I am so late! I didn’t know Al B had a son! He looks just like him. I hope things work out for them both.

wow people…i can see there r a lot of hurt people here telling quincy to just “get over it”…if its so easy then nobody would ever feel pain or suffer! u cant just “get over it”….including all u people telling him just that..

@ Portia

Couldn’t have said it better. You are 100% correct.

Im with you Cero, I know Diddy is up to something like pre record release publicity….. now we are all mad at his biological-dad but who knows he may have been made to stay away… is he alive=/ who’s seen him lately,lol-lets thinks about it…. Puff and Kim arent married, he tramps around with what and whoever male- female otherwise, babys moms gets paid to sit and smile and change their babies,……then lets consider -Diddys History with any other entertainer other than himself: BIG=Dead, Shine = Jail, makn what band? DK=who? Now another interesting tidbit is what happened with Shakir Stewart’s (he was tooo fine) alleged suicide..after dating Kim………and being nevous about diddys goons hmmmm…..Puff’s looksin comparison like a choc easter version of the Trix rabbit –

That boy is going to come out with a album and due to the fatherless child hype he’ll sell a milli out the door.. and everyone is anticipating his dad reincarnated

How stupid r u people, Qunicy doesn’t need publicity his puff’s son, and I think that he wants his father to be the one to reach out to him, and start a relationship just so he know’s that he is wanted. He probably put this on the internet expecting his father to come to him and make things better. I really don’t care what went down with him and Kim bottom line that is your child (twin) you have all rights to be in his life, and if Kim was acting crazy get joint custody HELLO. There is not excuse for a man not to take care of his child, and the fact that he is a celebrity makes his case even better for joint custody. It’s a little late for that now seeing how he’s almost 18 ,still letting another man raise your child ain’t right.

WTH is up with all these dumbass commenters acting like having no father is no big deal? Fortunately me mom and dad have been married since a decade before I was born, but I couldn’t imagine the man who gave me life not giving an eff about me.

Eff these ghetto birds who let ten dudes stick it in em at a time and then claim “I’m his Mama and his Daddy!” No. You’re not b1tch! I feel sorry for Quincy.

@Missunderstood, Style 20/20 is showing some moral responsibility through her power as a consumer. Why do you find that so distasteful? I also don’t buy concert tix, t-shirts, CDs from artists who I think do morally objectionable stuff (eg. R. Kelly, MJ, etc.)

Do you work for Al B. Sure or smthg? How do you know Style supports Eddie Murphy? And who accused Al of not paying child support?

What a lame excuse for not taking care of your child! “Well son, Eddie Murphy doesn’t even acknowledge his daughter. So you see, it’s really not that big of a deal that I never took in interest in getting to know you ” Ugh!

Mia: You are so right. This is not about celebrity or the big payback because he never once mentioned missing material things. This is about a child reaching out to his father. This is for the fathers and their families: If the babys mama acts crazy, take her to court and fight for your children. I have brothers so I can relate. I am not putting the mamas down because a lot of times their concerns and anger are legitimate. This is proof that money and notoriety cannot afford a child love and emotional stability. Lastly, this is not a black thing but an issue that transcends race. I guess everyone should be more selective about whom they make babies with.

Further clarification for S.O.S, the comment regarding whether or not he paid child support was said in GENERAL. There are a lot of folks on here who have discussed that angle, and we do not know that to be true… it wasn’t directed to 20/20…

i’ve seen several pics of this kid with al b. sure!! HE WANTS THAT LIME LIGHT, LIKE DIDDY. you can tell, with his lips poked out in every pic, getting his pose on. he could just call his pops and talk stuff out. THIS KID IS NOT A BUM ON THE STREETS WITH A RICH DAD…diddy take VERY good care of this kid. so he’s whinning for nothing. whinning while using diddy’s BLACK CARD, driving his RANGE and tricked-out LINCOLN!! maybe thats why al b dont come around, with his SEED praising diddy.

There has got to be a vengeance streak in the Brown Men. Like father like son.

From what I know and heard Quincy tried to reach his dad several times over the past few months with no response. His dad is too busy tryin to make a comeback.

Yes Quincy attemted to reach out to his dad Al but he hasn’t responded, so Quincy should back away slow, but always be open to getting in contact with Al. That’s messed up why does he acknowledge his other kids but not Quincy ? Things that make one think hmmmmmmm………

All I can say is whoa. If all kids wrote letters to their absent parents like this maybe there would not be so many. this young man mother should be proud of him. He knows that to go on in life he must let the past go without any anger. Good for him.

so what if the dead beat is busy making his music. being to busy for your blood is just bad on every level. and for all the fools that say puf is behind it all. now that is just stupid. ya all think puf is going to stop his money making just to screw up the dead beater. like puf has nothin to do but to target his lady’s ex. this is between abs and Q. maybe exposin to the net is bad but maybe it is only way to get the focus of the dead beat. ya it is bad but Q is hurtin. His daddy left some bad taste for Q. ask me. i work 14 hours every day to raise my kids. their dead beat dad is gone away like abs.

Texan you speak the truth. Q is better off without ABS. I praise Diddy for being the man in his life. A man to raise Quincy and be there for him. I love Diddy for that. As for ABS he makes me sick. He deserves nothing.

Diddy is a spectacular business man, the last thing he is thinking about is that low life loser al b sure.
Al b sure is a walking poster for all low lifes and the people who support and follow Al are the same trash he is.

Just because a man can sing does not make him a father. this man’s own flesh and blood has called him out for his bs. this is just the beginning of bad karma for Al. He is a deadbeat with his kids, his heart and his soul. his soul is dead. who could support a record from a deadbeat father and a human being (if you read quincy’s current letter his dad has still not reached out to him). his dad is too busy trying to make a comeback at his 40yr old tired self. he has no time to be a father and he does not care. i for one am glad quincy is far away from Al. It will save him years of therapy.

It is so sad that this young man felt his need to reach out to his father in this medium. This speaks so highly to a much bigger problem in our country today. Deadbeat fathers. Mr. Brown aka Al B Sure should be ashamed of himself. His own flesh and blood to say such things? I hope this letter serves as an example to all deadbeat fathers everywhere.
Quincy, you should be proud of yourself. You are on your way to self recovery. Please be the man your biological father is not. Please be a good husband, father, son, and brother. God bless.

quincy keep reaching out god bless

Quincy, you should write a song like Kanye’s that will make you stonger. I love your song and I am sorry you have this pain. I cannot imagine if that happen to me. It is good you have P Diddy to be the father for you. Be strong young man, it is your father’s loss.

I saw Al B Sure at a grocery store in Studio city a few years ago. Have you seen him without glasses? Let’s just say I can see why he always has them on.

Once a deadbeat always a deadbeat unfortunately.
