hes calling funky out on his hypocrisy ...rightfully so
the way funky talks..you'd think that he's only been involved in Oprah-esque productions

"trash! setting the culture back! what would our forefathers think!"

this is the same man who was standing outside of sheree's unfinished house to give a quick kii to the internet
calling beyonce's daughter ugly as he sat on a panel of a weekly show that did nothing but talk shit about people

maybe there's some morsels of truth in what funky has to say but he lacks a LOT of self awareness.
this is no different from him calling people ghetto and condemning them for twerking in the streets during spring break in miami

like hun you've admittedly done HARD drugs ...crack cocaine, been evicted for nonpayment of rent
ran around rolling ur neck impersonating a black woman from the hood for years

wake up! :disgusted: ur not the gorl u think u are
no matter how many pics you take with gucci shopping bags. i think funky is deeply insecure - he's constantly projecting

he really has NERVE to tell this man he built his success off of "trash".
glad this Lemmie guy is really hitting him with reality and not just getting offended and crunk with him.

funk doesnt even have a leg to stand on

lemme is 100% right and ive always felt that way

black people so quick to call out some mess that another black person is doing or the head of
setting back the culture! promoting stereotypes! blah blah blah

but then will turn around and be on the edge of their seat from the same "trash" being pumped out by a white owned network

he hit the fuckin nail on the head . no need for funk to even say anything else
so im glad he kept cutting him off :woohoo:

funk is anti-black, the receipts keep printing and printing
from him being OK with dark skinned black women being called ugly monkeys
to him constantly looking down on "ghetto" mess
to him now telling a black network CEO that his content is trash and "setting back the culture"
meanwhile, there's a whole library on funk's channel of him basically promoting trashy, derogatory content from Viacom with his commentary and notes from each episode.

he needs to stick to posting Gucci shopping bags on instagram to let everyone know how rich and successful he is.
or go back to hitting crack...cuz this lemmie guy gave him smoke his lungs couldn't handle.

I'm sorry. I'm with the tea gif crew on this one. He was clearly pissed off with comments Funky made about his network which all of us have made, and came on there to rumble. Zeus content is TRASH and thats just that on that. No matter how much Lemmie wants to defend it. Its trash. Just stand in it and say 'Hey, we do have other content, but people wanna watch what they wanna watch'.

The content can be trash but funky sits and comments on the same trash from other networks. Make it make sense. 


king also has other content but you faggots don't watch it

And yeah, Lemme pretty much cutting off everyone and just going on this rant just shows how immature and bothered he is. If u know ur content isn't trash, u wouldn't be sooo damn bothered to call up a low budget Fox Soul show to defend urself. He handled that poorly, imo.

basically

funky is upset that a black man is at the helm of this particular circus.

lemmie called him on his shit plain and simple.

it HAS to be frustrating to have someone like funky who is clearly condescending, hypocritical, judgmental...
with his history.....

if anything I think Lemme held back a bit. there's a lot more that coulda been said.
he was defensive and ANNOYED but kept it tame .

Two things can be true. Funky even said some of the topics they discuss are messy and trashy on the show. But that doesnt mean Zeus's network isn't known for having trashy content. We would all be pots calling the kettle black here. Cause don't we all drag ppl and discuss trash too? Doesn't mean we cant call something trash. Mona's shows have been called trash for years. But she never lets it get under the skin as much as this guy has. Let the shit roll off ur back and smile all the way to the bank. He's giving Funky waaay too much power.

Dude repeatedly said he wasn't bothered when he CLEARLY was :kii:

Just own the shit. If he owned it and said "y'all can be trash too, and we're all trashy together", I'd respect him more. But dont try to defend it. He came on there to argue. But I get it. He's feeling a lot of pressure right now from the public coming down on his network as of lately. So he's in his feelings, I guess.

Lemmy sent me trying to act like he wasn't bothered by the trash comment but then he said he was bothered by it. Like, make up your mind babe.

I can get why he's upset but Funky didn't lie, Zeus is just the bottom of the barrel, ghetto foolery.

But there is a market for that, and I do enjoy watching some ghetto ass mess myself from time to time so I can't judge.

:justabit:

And Funky did get his start reviewing Love and Hip Hop so clearly he liked that type of mess at one point too.

Couple things ....cuz you're comparing apples to oranges.

Mona is much older than this guy . 20 year difference - with that comes much more wisdom. He has time to catch up.   Lemme is in a very unique position for his age. 

Also, Mona is not a CEO of a network - she's a producer.

Funky has a platform with influence - he's not a random commenter on Instagram. Funky is condescending, judgmental and disrespectful with his opinion - he called this man's network "trash" to his face during an interview.

All about approach. You want a civil conversation, watch your language and your attitude. As Lemmie said, Funky's language is extremely derogatory.

Funky set the entire mess up for an uncivil tea.

First it was "How did u FEEL about that clip they just played with me talkin shit about you? I know a lot of people sent it to you. lol! :woohoo: "

Lemmie understandably didn't wanna give Funky the power or reaction he was clearly LOOKING for in that moment.
So he said "I didn't feel anything. "

Wouldn't you do the same when you're dealing with someone like Funky?

Read between the lines gorls. Lets use our noggins.

Lemmy shouldn't have even been on the show to begin with then. Him volunteering to be on the show, completely bothered and upset, is triggering to him. And like I said before, if u know something aint factual, aint no need to respond. Especially to a damn Funky. This didn't help him one bit. He's on a show catering to Funky fans and if u read the comments under the video, no one is even in support of him. He shoulda just went on about his day on this one.

Now, I'm not saying Funky is some saint. At all. I'm speaking more to LEMMIE here. Own ur shit, fuck the haters, keep getting money and get some media training for ur next interview. If ur content is trash, and people comment and say its trash, u look stupid being bothered by it and saying its not trash. :kii:

He is representing his company.

Many companies will take an opportunity to DEFEND their brand.

Many companies will take time to respond to negative reviews left on yelp, Google, etc. regarding their services.

It's not that they feel a need to get down and dirty with some MESS for fun. And it's not to say that minds will be changed once they've said their piece.

But he has every right to take the opportunity to defend the reputation of something he's invested so much in. It's not our place to tell him what he shouldn't be offended by. We're not sweating, crying, or working our asses off to build what he has and we don't know how these things have affected his brand.

I do agree with Afro that Funky is a bit of a hypocrite and contradicts himself.

I wish I could find the clip so I could remember the exact conversation but on the show he was basically talking about how we need to build black fashion brands up blah blah, and how these high fashion European brands don't care about black consumers but this nigga stays stays dripped down in some Gucci and LV mess. Like what?

I focus on Funky's PATTERN of having issues with Black people for different reasons.

Either they're too ghetto, too trashy, ugly, embarrassing ....

thats my issue with Funky. This mess is just yet another page to add to this novel

Now, I'm not saying Funky is some saint. At all. I'm speaking more to LEMMIE here. Own ur shit, fuck the haters, keep getting money and get some media training for ur next interview. If ur content is trash, and people comment and say its trash, u look stupid being bothered by it and saying its not trash. :kii:
He is representing his company.

Many companies will take an opportunity to DEFEND their brand.

Many companies will take time to respond to negative reviews left on yelp, Google, etc. regarding their services.

It's not that they feel a need to get down and dirty with some MESS for fun. And it's not to say that minds will be changed once they've said their piece.

But he has every right to take the opportunity to defend the reputation of something he's invested so much in. It's not our place to tell him what he shouldn't be offended by. We're not sweating, crying, or working our asses off to build what he has and we don't know how these things have affected his brand.

Ur right, but he didnt do it correctly. He needs to learn how to truly defend his brand and what battles to fight.

I do agree with Afro that Funky is a bit of a hypocrite and contradicts himself.

I wish I could find the clip so I could remember the exact conversation but on the show he was basically talking about how we need to build black fashion brands up blah blah, and how these high fashion European brands don't care about black consumers but this nigga stays stays dripped down in some Gucci and LV mess.

The content can be trash but funky sits and comments on the same trash from other networks. Make it make sense.

Two things can be true. Funky even said some of the topics they discuss are messy and trashy on the show. But that doesnt mean Zeus's network isn't known for having trashy content. We would all be pots calling the kettle black here. Cause don't we all drag ppl and discuss trash too? Doesn't mean we cant call something trash. Mona's shows have been called trash for years. But she never lets it get under the skin as much as this guy has. Let the shit roll off ur back and smile all the way to the bank. He's giving Funky waaay too much power.
Couple things ....cuz you're comparing apples to oranges.

Mona is much older than this guy . 20 year difference - with that comes much more wisdom. He has time to catch up.   Lemme is in a very unique position for his age. 

Also, Mona is not a CEO of a network - she's a producer.

Funky has a platform with influence - he's not a random commenter on Instagram. Funky is condescending, judgmental and disrespectful with his opinion - he called this man's network "trash" to his face during an interview.

All about approach. You want a civil conversation, watch your language and your attitude. As Lemmie said, Funky's language is extremely derogatory.

Lemmy shouldn't have even been on the show to begin with then. Him volunteering to be on the show, completely bothered and upset, is triggering to him. And like I said before, if u know something aint factual, aint no need to respond. Especially to a damn Funky. This didn't help him one bit. He's on a show catering to Funky fans and if u read the comments under the video, no one is even in support of him. He shoulda just went on about his day on this one.

Funky didn't do it correctly.

His language was very unprofessional and disrespectful.   If anything, as a host/interview it was Funky's job to make sure this went smoothly. But instead he was so excited to hop at yet another opportunity to look down on a Black person and DEMEAN them with his condescending , wanna be high brow ass language and demeanor.

Whatever it takes to make him feel better about himself, his own life, where he's been and where he's at versus where he really wants to be.

FD hasn't done the "my hair is laid" thing in years, he barely reviews reality shows anymore and his content has been way more positive - even before TGIF started - so I don't see how he's a hypocrite for saying what we've been saying since Zeus launched, their content is trash :dead: 

All 3 of them have given this guy his flowers ever time they've discussed Zeus by uplifting as a young Black man making moves in the industry. 

I understand why he's pissed, and I do think he's trying to do better but at the point at which Joseline's Cabaret and Bad Boyz Club are your flagship shows, you kinda don't have a leg to stand on.

He's a hypocrite because the specific words he used are "your entire tea has been BUILT ON trash "

Basically saying "yeah nigga u built an empire ... congrats or whatever BUT let's look at its foundation. Do u REALLY deserve kudos? Lolz  "

as if his own tea doesn't have an entire pile of mess as the foundation  itself.  :unsure:

he's a hypocrite because although he "rarely" does reality tv reviews anymore, he still does them. Just because it's been cut down to once a week doesn't mean he now has the right to call out black network CEOs for "trash tv" while he still sits on his own platform to review and ultimately PROMOTE "trash" content from networks that don't have a black face at the helm.

But funky is CONSTANTLY judging Black people in a condescending, classist tone and BELITTLING them  .  And CHASTISING them as if they're children. He has a HISTORY of this. Shall I run the tapes and got damn drive the point home ? The fuck

If ur happy for a young black man doing his thing and being super successful that should be the end of the story.

funky basically gives a congratulatory "happy to see a black man winning!" statement but makes sure to follow it up with a "but...anyone can do what ur doing. It's just some bullshit lol "' to basically STRIP lemmie of his hard work and completely devalue him

I def see why lemmie got a lil snappy with him and let funky know he's not a CEO . not just anyone can do what lemmie is doing - at that level. 

and funky is not truly happy for this man and his accomplishment at ALL. So he should stop with the fake "yay blk ppl!" congrats and backhanded compliments and just be ALL the way real with it .

FD is as insecure as ever and mad because this well spoken, intelligent man never had to play a caricature of the worst kind of black woman to be successful.

I don't think Funky is jealous of his success he himself is doing pretty well in his lane of work. Everybody isn't looking to have that level of responsibility

All the shows that have been promoted by zeus are all gutta trash. Bunch of sissies fighting spilling tainted blood every where is foolishness. I want them to be heard to but this ain't it. They picked a bunch of coked up fags to participate. This was the show that they definitely should've spent time and effort on the abcdefg community can't afford to have this show as a representation of how gays act

But will sit his ass up on his platform and give us some "oh nessa gor! Did y'all see the fight on **insert messy Bravo/VH1 show which features black women here ** last night? Wanna talk about it? Let's go! Lmaoooo"

so more specifically - u feel the VIOLENCE maybe goes too far . Which is understandable

But Violence on TV is nothing new either . We all remember porsha hopping on kenya during that reunion

And Andy making it clear that the Bravo network does not condone violence - AFTER they aired the fight to make sure they made their money off of it first .

I clocked that, did you? If you don't condone or support something , why are you not only airing it, but CENTERING the promo of the entire episode around it?

I mean if we gonna pull cards let pull the shits out today. Let's really get offended and concerned today . Let's ask questions

This sounds like an issue of the right message from the wrong messenger. The biggest and most promoted shows on Zeus are just unfiltered mess, but it's hard to talk when commentary on this type of content is what your own career is built on. He really had a point that the only reason L&HH, The Housewives, BBW etc are more tame is because of cable tv restrictions with sponsorship and advertising. So you can't come down on his network for being too messy when you like mess. You can dislike it but criticizing it on a public platform is hypocritical

there's a difference between stating the obvious and going into some long drawn out "setting black people back! So offensive! Where's the class? Yuck" Mess

Funky is one of those people who , once they reach a certain stage, they're EXCITED  to turn their nose up at mess they were heavily involved in not too long ago

Kinda like those people who lose weight and act like they can't understand why people enjoy junk food. Bitch u were just chowing down on a family size bag of Doritos not too long ago. Is it memory loss?

They really gun down the wrong faggots

Y'all are so selective. I could find ten posts from everyone in here saying Zeus is a hot as mess, but NOW because Funky said it, it's an issue.

Please. His content is garbage. And it does set us back. In the age of Insecure, Black Lady Sketch Show, Pose, etc - We don't need the type of representation that Lemmie's shows give us.
do u watch messy reality TV featuring black folks ?

this post reads as if u don't . Asking cuz I don't wanna assume . Maybe u legit only watch shows like black lady sketch and pose etc

I don't watch the shit on Zeus if that's what you're getting at :dead:

there's a difference between stating the obvious and going into some long drawn out "setting black people back! So offensive! Where's the class? Yuck" Mess

The latter is what funky is doing. Does that make sense?

I'm not seeing the variety on Zeus. Everything on there targets the Jerry Springer/Maury audience. And if thats what is working for his network, continue to deliver. I am using his app for the first time, for bad boys LA, and im not surr if i will continue with it.

I don't fought Lemmie for making these business decisions He is capable of more compelling shows so i am sure those will come in due time. But, most networks start out with cheap shows/ easy hits in the beginning. Its only year 3 for Zeus. Hbo built their empire off violence, exploitation, and filthiness. And now is considered a prestigious network. 

Good Luck to Lemmie i wish him well. Funky was wrong here!

Just such in a rush to JUDGE people

Def one of those "who's gonna tell them?" Moments

Funky is very judgmental . Ebenezer Baptist deaconess realness. That one who has something to say about everything and everyone til someone gets fed up and reminds her she had all her kids outta wedlock.

Not sit there and justify bitches fighting and making fun of abortions every two seconds. I don't care about u being young and black. Or how many ppl you have employed. Joseline Hernandez and Natalie Nunn are hot ass messes.

And there ain't no damn variety on Zeus.

FD hasn't done the "my hair is laid" thing in years, he barely reviews reality shows anymore and his content has been way more positive - even before TGIF started - so I don't see how he's a hypocrite for saying what we've been saying since Zeus launched, their content is trash :dead:

All 3 of them have given this guy his flowers ever time they've discussed Zeus by uplifting as a young Black man making moves in the industry.

I understand why he's pissed, and I do think he's trying to do better but at the point at which Joseline's Cabaret and Bad Boyz Club are your flagship shows, you kinda don't have a leg to stand on.

Right! Funky been talked about how his content needed to change and that his content was tired

That boy going to get gun was it fah me. Ion even like Milan but they were set up by production. The security was gone no where to be found

Funkys the one who made the conversation a black thing . He FRAMED the convo and his entire critique in blackness .

Setting back the culture!

he opened the door for lemmie to remind him he's young black and simply doing his thing like Viacom and bravo are.

and funky sounds absolutely ridiculous in this follow up video . Pointing out that Zeus sets up situations for conflict and fighting to ensue and that's the difference between Zeus and shows like love and hip hop

is he back on crack? There are countless moments where L&HH put people who do not like each other and who were willing to pop off in the same room to let the fireworks take off

like Chrissy and yandy's incident  up in the club and countless others

Zeus's content is a bit out there for me, but there's a market for it clearly. When oprah launched own a lot of the content they were producing wasn't all high brow and critically acclaimed.
Its also pretty late to think that just because someone enjoys "trash" tv that they're less than intelligent.. people are not that one dimensional..

funky clearly feels only a certain "type" of person in the community enjoys this type of programming 

It's very condescending and part of a larger pattern with him judging black people based on how they choose to have fun

like him chastising women who were twerking in the street during Miami spring break . Like ... it's spring break . I'm not even a huge party person like that and I know that spring break is usually the opposite of tame - whether it's black people twerking or white chicks tryna get their jerry beads on the beach 

This is a man who has experienced so many things outside of what I'd consider the norm and yet he talks as if hes this sheltered upper class white woman who is appalled at anything that isn't prim and proper 

the whole mess is a kii.

That whole "growth"'thing is problematic as well

just because you've decided that you no longer enjoy a particular brand of entertainment or party doesn't mean everyone else who does is beneath you

there are people who are smart enough to watch a show starring a crackhead who loves to fight and get evicted by their friends without becoming one themselves . If u can't, that's unfortunate

but there are people who are able to put things in their proper compartments and still thrive . What they enjoy on tv has nothing to do with where they stand as a human being .

That whole "wanna see u grow" mess is many times just another form of nicely dressed condescension and judgement .

This whole "representation" mess is BS and I hate when  ppl pull that card out. I literally roll my eyes and sigh each time I see it . 🙄

Unless ur sitting around watching nothing but documentaries all day....

We love MESS . We love DRAMA. We love seeing people being a ratchet FOOL. Networks like Bravo and VH1 had made a KILLING at the bank from us tuning in to watch just that.

Why do we suddenly have such a fucking issue with it when it's a black person like Lemmie unapologetically making his money off of it?

Jonathan left that set and said let me go get my gun after he already had beat dat a chair and some of them had knives. Yeah we like a lil ratchet but that is too much
so more specifically - u feel the VIOLENCE maybe goes too far . Which is understandable

But Violence on TV is nothing new either . We all remember porsha hopping on kenya during that reunion

And Andy making it clear that the Bravo network does not condone violence - AFTER they aired the fight to make sure they made their money off of it first .

I clocked that, did you? If you don't condone or support something , why are you not only airing it, but CENTERING the promo of the entire episode around it?

I mean if we gonna pull cards let pull the shits out today. Let's really get offended and concerned today . Let's ask questions

Thats all just dial it back a bit with violence.

By all mean's I think he should air what happens but dont make them think its okay to do that all the time with no repercussions.
