Real Talk With Simply Phillip Brown

You people have no respect for the dead; hell, you barely have respect for those who are living, and that truly amazes me, yet I have yet to hear you say anything negative about Farrah Fawcett, Rick James, Tupac Shakur, Biggie Smalls, and the list goes on. I swear, you treat it like it was dipped in gold, but check your history; we love them, but trust me—they weren’t always angels. None of us can escape the burden of what it is to be human; our very journey to become better then we once were means… hold up… stop for a second… here it comes… that yes, we will make mistakes.

Life is so unbelievably funny that way, because there are those who can do anything and get away with it and there are those who are simply misunderstood or thought crazy simply because they choose to do what they feel is right and not what everyone wants them to do or considers to be their norm.

People choose to laugh, taunt, and tease about issues concerning a man that most of us didn’t know beyond his music.

Oh no, he didn’t; girl, oh yes, I did; check my history. In a country where you are guilty before and after proven innocent, let Michael rest in peace.

You’ve seen him in the Tyler Perry Productions of “Diary of a Mad Black Woman” the movie,” Madea’s Class Reunion,” and” Meet the Browns.” Both in music and acting, Terrall Carter is very well known.

For awhile now, my inbox has been full of messages from those wanting to know my take on Terrell, as well as if I was ever going to post an entry on my blog concerning the rumors that surfaced surrounding him.

(Simply Phillip Brown moves away from his laptop, stands up and stretches his neck as he looks into the air and breathes deeply, He sits back down to his desk and begins typing once again.)

I swear, the world and there fascination with whom someone is sleeping with. There have been rumors for awhile that Terrell Carter was gay, but this was always speculation before pictures starting showing up from various sources around the net. I am quite sure that if they hit my inbox, they are in other bloggers’ boxes as well. However, here at Real Talk, we are not going to take the route that other blogs choose to take, simply because who am I to judge? Whom this man sleeps with has nothing to do with whether I go to heaven or hell, at the end; I answer for what I do, not someone else. I have my own issues, how little of me to dig up someone else’s mess when I have piles of my own.

First of all, the people who condemn him for things you COULD NOT POSSIBLY KNOW are the sick ones with issues. If any of the accusations are actually true (which certainly could or hey could not be), you’ll never know. It is between himself and God – NOT hypocrites and stone-throwers.

Judging others makes life harder then it is has to be, cause the day will come when you will be judged. What will you do? That little remark is the farthest thing from karma you will ever know, it’s the forgotten page from the good book a lot of you may not remember, called you reap what you sow.

I met Terrell a long time ago, and all I have to say is whatever he does is no one’s business but his own. Trust me Mr. Carter when I say that all this foolishness will pass. Tomorrow they will be talking about someone else or something new. Keep your head up and continue to do well, not just in plays, music, or movies but in whatever else life brings your way.

Some advice on a personal note from one man to another; be careful who you deal with and allow in your life. People today seek revenge when they are upset. Instead of talking the sitution out with the person they have the problem with, they would rather share it with the world.
