[Music] hey everyone welcome back to my channel so guys ice spice has lost a lot of listeners on Spotify over the past year because in August of last year she had 47 million monthly listeners showing just how popular she was but since then her listener count has dropped with new artists coming up and the excitement around her slowing down so she's been struggling to keep the attention she once had but I honestly think that a big part of this drop in popularity might be because of drama in her personal life because she lost the support from Nikki's fan base after her former best friend called her out and she exposed alleged messages where ice spice was talking about Nicki Minaj now this negative attention didn't help ice spice's Public Image as a result of this Fallout ice spice also lost many Instagram followers some fans were disappointed by the way she allegedly treated Cleo and this led to many unfollowing her Cleo recently exposed her for allegedly mistreating her on her recent tour she said that ice spice was unprofessional and didn't support her so when this news hit social media it caused a lot of controversy with fans arguing about what really happened and we all know social media is super important for musicians like her so losing followers is a big deal for her influence and reach but even though things have been tough she's still working on her music now moving on to the next topic Jr recently responded to tamama Braxton's allegations of cheating which she aired on social media she accused him of being involved with another woman and using her jewelry and credit cards T's emotional Instagram post implied that her ex had deceived her claiming he was involved with the younger woman while still leading her on however he quickly denied these accusations saying he has been single for six months and had never LED t on during this time so in his video response he explained that he and T had been working through their transition from romantic Partners to friends and he clarified that he had set clear boundaries and also emphasized that their romantic relationship had ended you know I initially was going to take the high road in this situation and not say anything but the reality is I cannot keep getting attacked my character can't keep getting attacked I can't keep being thrown under the bus because someone can't control their anxiety and someone can't control these delusional thoughts about things that aren't real I I am in no way wanting to attack anybody my purpose in in my life has always been to protect I haven't ran to social media every time something happened to me in that relationship cuz trust me with all the receipts and all the things that have happened I could have but I've chose to do what a real man does and that is protect the person that I've been with in this situation I'll be very clear I've been single for the last 6 months we have been trying to identify what that looks like Closing one chapter and figuring out what it's like to be friends again I've been very specific about my boundaries I've been very specific about where we stand as friends go date anybody you want I'm going to date when I'm ready I am emotionally unavailable to you and I'm physically unavailable to you now birthday comes up plans are put in place of course I want someone that I consider to be family to be involved in that because if anybody knows her she is big on birthdays I don't leave people on I'm very direct listen if if anything that you're doing or that you want to do comes with an agenda I don't want to be involved in it at all I don't want you to be involved in my birthday plans I don't want you to come to Turks and caos this is not a Reconciliation time whatever you decide you're doing it's because we're friends and because I'm still being involved in my son's life I still would love you to have a relationship with my children but not to the extent that you make up these stories that aren't real I went to New Orleans I booked my room at Four Seasons on booking.com and didn't realize that the card I'm using which also ends in the same three last numbers was tied to something that we booked several months ago no harm no foul we're talking N9 $0000 stop it while I'm in New Orleans for a funeral my really good 25 plus Year friend who passed away I spent time with his family I extended my stay because I needed time to reset so I get a call yesterday hey did you stay at Four Seasons yeah I did uh in fact I extended I gave them my card and everything's good why what's up oh well I got a call about some chick who used my car at Four Season I said that's not possible this is funny ha what what are you talking about well I thought we can friends we can talk about it but this is laughable I didn't stay with anybody at the Four Seasons I'm not seeing anybody didn't wasn't on a date none of that if I was you're my friend what do I have to hide about that um I'll just say cooler heads didn't Prevail and next thing you know I'm on her story and I'm being accused of things which are just lat not true um I have never LED Tamar Braxton on I never will nor will I there are people hate the name drop but hey Carlos King you got me involved in this you're part of the reason why we became friends um but I've been very clear about my boundaries I've been very clear about wanting to have a friendship but not to the extent that y friends don't each other on on their stories and call each other out on stuff like look if there was a mix up with the card because of booking.com yo that's a quick fix it's already taken care of I've already contacted Four Seasons and they've already issued a refund and they charge my card it's that simple where did this random woman come in that you called a somebody I became friends with on Instagram like maybe 3 days ago it's just a reach and I'm tired of having to stay quiet and not defend myself yo mental health is real and I understand how sometimes anxiety can get the best of us but you just don't go on social media and start attacking somebody you say that you love that you care for as a friend and and then you post pictures of you and my daughters together but then you're throwing their dad under the bus it's not cool man and uh the unfortunate reality is I thought that I could be friends uh and try to maintain some type of friendship but I I that relationship is done and I didn't want to come out like 6 months ago and be like hey I'm single again because then people are like oh you're sassy what this is the reason why I did it last time because of this assumption that I'm leading somebody on and that I'm cheating I have never cheated in my life find a woman that will tell you I cheated on her I'm not successful because I cheat when I'm committed I'm completely committed now I'm not going to go there there's a lot more I could talk about I'm not going to do it CU this isn't about revenge this is about saying hey wait a minute this shouldn't have happened picking up the phone and talking calmly and saying hey Jay I got charged in my card you stay Four Seasons okay cool but then you had to find a a random narrative to go with it it's it's messed up and and the truth is now there's potential defamation behind it because I don't even know this person never met her in my life never even had a DM with her again here I am defending myself because of all of these assumptions and all these internet bullies who don't have a clue not one thing to they don't know nothing about me
