Dr. Boyce: Shawty Lo, 10 Babies’ Mamas Give Us TV Buffoonery 101
by Dr. Boyce Watkins
In case you’ve never heard the phrase “ghetto polygamy,” consider this to be your formal introduction to the ratchedness that some have come to define as “black culture.” Oxygen has decided to give a platform to ignorance by creating a show featuring the rapper Shawty Lo, his 10 babies’ mamas and the 11 unfortunate children who have the pleasure of being born in the middle of a pile of irresponsible bullsh*t.
If you think I’m being harsh on Mr. Lo, the fact remains that I could never be as hard on this brother as he is being on his kids, many of whom are going to grow up wondering if their daddy actually loves them. I’ve spent my life raising children of fathers who are all too eager to spread their seed without accountability, and I found myself hurt to the core when witnessing the intense emotional damage that comes from having a father who doesn’t give a d**n (my own biological father also abandoned me at birth, so yes, this is personal for me). There’s nothing wrong with a man having a lot of kids, and we can even justify some of them living in different households. But 11 children with 10 women is like spraying your s*x organs in every direction without thinking much about the target.
But here are some thoughts I had when hearing about this show (appropriately called “All My Babies’ Mamas), which I’m sure will be the biggest thing to hit the TV screen since “Flavor of Love” and “Driving Miss Daisy” – thanks to Oxygen, Shawty Lo might be able to pay that child support after all:
1) Someone needs to call the Center for Disease Control: People do realize that in order to get a woman pregnant, you typically have to have unprotected intercourse? Also, if we presume that it takes multiple tries with multiple partners to get a woman pregnant, there are probably several dozen instances of unprotected interludes that take place over time. What is scariest is that some people run through a lot of partners and have never in their life gotten a full STD panel of tests at the doctor’s office. This is a crisis in the making, and someone has to speak up about it.
Oh yea, anyone who sleeps with a man just because he’s famous should realize that you’re also sleeping with dozens (or even hundreds) of other people that the man has been with. That’s just flat out nasty.
2) Collecting babies’ mamas is one of the easiest ways to go broke: An immature man gets excited when he finds that every woman wants him. A more mature man realizes that too much female attention can be a curse, like an obese man with heart disease working in a bakery that offers him free food. Having a long list of mating partners increases the chances that a stripper named Shaquanda ends up taking you to court every time she hears that you got a raise on your job or a new record deal. She also wants her money even if your record deal is now expired and you’re trying to survive with a 12th grade education. I’ve seen far too many brothers singing the child support blues after forgetting about the importance of a man being selective about where he chooses to plant his seed. Yes: most men are attracted to beautiful women, but gluttonous and short-sighted behavior is a great way to destroy your life.
3) Most people with “multi-baby-mama-it is” obviously care nothing for their children: Producing a bunch of children with a stack of babies’ mamas with no plan to care for the children is one of the most selfish things that a man can do. Mothers who are complicit in such plans or who keep the child’s father out of his/her life are also to blame. Your children now barely have a chance to succeed in this world, and it’s your fault. There’s no reason for me to be nice when saying this, because you weren’t being very nice to your kids by bringing them into the world in a manner that positions them for failure. Even the most well-intended parent is going to have trouble giving appropriate time, resources and attention to 11 children in 10 different homes. It’s d**n near impossible.
4) This is commercialized hip-hop at its finest: I’m not sure who decided in hip-hop that black men are supposed to have s*x with everything that moves. Adopting these destructive cultural norms not only leads to the rampant spread of STDs, it is also a huge disservice to the millions of children being born in unstable situations. The white man doesn’t have to kill us if we’ve already agreed to kill ourselves and each other: Commercialized hip-hop’s steady formula of excessive drug/alcohol consumption, promotion of gun violence, financial irresponsibility and s*xual promiscuity does a great job of keeping us on the psychological plantation.
5) What in the h**l is wrong with Oxygen? Perhaps the Shawty Lo show is Oxygen’s black male version of “Honey Boo Boo.” In both cases, a middle class audience is lured in to make fun of the lives of lower class Americans. I’m not sure what Oxygen hopes to accomplish with this show, but I’m sure Shawty Lo will be the next great black role model propped up by the oppressive tradition of Hollywood…they can put his picture right next to Martin Luther King and the rapper 2Chainz. Maybe some of the show’s income can be used to pay for these kids to get a good education along with therapy to overcome the abuse and trauma that all too often happens to children who don’t have a father at home to protect them.
Forgive me for being emotional as I share my thoughts about this show. But the truth is that we have to speak up for our children. We have to call out ignorance when we see it and challenge ourselves to make better decisions. Many of our outcomes are imposed upon us by an oppressive society, that is absolutely true. But in far too many cases, these problems are due to an oppressive partnership in which we have become willing participants.
Let’s go ahead and kill the stupidity so Shawty Lo’s children can become better parents than him. Also, this story is a reminder that we must show appreciation to those powerful men who take their parental obligations seriously. They don’t get the recognition they deserve, and they will never get a reality show. So, if there is a strong black man in your life, please go and tell him “thank you.”

………………….”I found myself hurt to the core when witnessing the intense emotional damage that comes from having a father who doesn’t give a d**n (my own biological father also abandoned me at birth, so yes, this is personal for me)”……
I see why you loved Django but hated Denzel’s pilot in Flight. You have daddy issues and Django represented what you wished your own father was; a brave man
Anyway, you’re also a Shawty Lo……….an edumacated Shawty Lo with a degree and just one Baby Mama.
I must dvr some episodes for laughs.
I agree Martian. Shawty Lo and his large family have NOTHING to do with Dr. Boyce’s PERSONAL experience.
My son’s father has ONLY ONE SON and two daughters, and wasn’t a good father to any of them.
BLACK MEN IN MY GRANDFATHER’S GENERATION HAD 10 OR MORE CHILDREN BEFORE BIRTH CONTROL, AND MANAGED TO BE A DECENT FATHER TO ALL OF THEM, AND PROVIDE FOR ALL OF THEM FARMING!
Sure they didn’t have perfect lives, but they HAD LIFE. ANY LIFE IS BETTER THAN NO LIFE. MIDDLE CLASS LIFE OR HIGH CLASS LIFE IS LITTLE BETTER THAN LOW INCOME LIFE.
Being from a low class life/single parent didn’t stop Boyce from excellent, because DADDY GOOD GOVT POLICIES stepped in and gave him a hand up.
Watch Shawty. Help him take care of his black children. That is the way to love your community. Thank you for putting this up Dr. Boyce, I’ll be watching to help my community. I love black children and love to see them being born, even when they’re not rich. I love Honey Boo Boo too. I hope Shawty’s kids get as rich as June and Honey Boo Boo, and create some new black millionaires. GO SHAWTY AND FAMILY!!! THANK YOU OXYGEN FOR CARING ABOUT POOR NEGRO FAMILIES.

Aren’t we as a people smarter than this? You mean there’s no other way to become financially successful in America than to stoop to reality show life? Is there nothing better for us? Have we no alternatives? Have we totally lost our creativity? Our self respect?!?
You’d think that if Oxygen really cared about poor black families, maybe they’d do some charity work, and not a show that mocks & belittles them. But, eh, just one person’s opinion….
GOD MADE EACH PERSON DIFFERENT. GOD GAVE POOR CHILDREN THE RIGHT TO LIVE JUST LIKE MIDDLE CLASS ONES. WHO ARE WE TO SAY THAT POOR CHILDREN DONT DESERVE TO LIVE. DO YOU REALIZE HOW IGNORANT YOU SOUND WHEN YOU SAY ONLY MIDDLE CLASS AND RICH BLACK KIDS SHOULD BE BORN. R U d**n CRAZY OR A MEMBER OF THE KKK????
Black on black crime and the affirmative action negro is at its worse when affirmative action negroes/AKA black millionaires, seek to blame their lack of equal social opportunity on poor black negroes, and use their position power to destroy their own people. The ex-ghetto negro who benefited from good social policy now looks down on the blacks who didn’t make it out. They see everything in themselves in these people and money cant stamp it out. Whenever they aren’t invited to a white’s party, or get a job, they blame it on their blackness instead of their low thinking, immorale drug addicted ways, and sorry personal habits. Then they look at the poor negro and hates, because they see their incompetence and niigertude wide open.
The house negro has power now and they are using it to genocide their own race. That is what is going on today.
Rich, Black, Flunking
Cal Professor John Ogbu thinks he knows why rich black kids are failing in school. Nobody wants to hear it.

The black parents wanted an explanation. Doctors, lawyers, judges, and insurance brokers, many had come to the upscale Cleveland suburb of Shaker Heights specifically because of its stellar school district. They expected their children to succeed academically, but most were performing poorly. African-American students were lagging far behind their white classmates in every measure of academic success: grade-point average, standardized test scores, and enrollment in advanced-placement courses. On average, black students earned a 1.9 GPA while their white counterparts held down an average of 3.45. Other indicators were equally dismal. It made no sense.
Sabrina Lamb, is nothing but another jealous devil worshipping Haitian, who will stoop to any kind of level to hurt a black american person.
Black Americans need to stop being duped with this “we all one black people” lie. All the while they pretend to want black unity, foreign blacks are plotting the downfall of a successful black american person. They are only out for themselves and their ethnic group.
One black american Miami blogger said the following and she is right on the money:
I cant stand the arrogance and hateration from some immigrants, particularly Haitians, especially because they ARE black. There should be a kinship there, but they will eat their young (if not 100% Haitian of course) to get ahead of us. Black americans can identify with Haitians, or any minoroties for that matter, in the struggle as a minority, but for some reason they can not identify with us. They even use that to their advantage when it benefits them looking for benefits for “we black people”, but the truth is they will do any and every underhanded thing toward an american black, even backstabbing us in favor of whites, its rediculous. My neighborhood was primarily Haitians where I grew up. The part of town I lived in we all nicknamed ‘little Haiti’ for all the Haitians there, so I am not talking about what I don’t know or out of just a few interactions with them. I wish I could say different. For their attitude, and their usery, I say send them all back, we dont need that mess here to confuse and divide anymore.
Violence against women was a problem in Haiti long before the earthquake, with rape only recognized as a crime in 2005. The earthquake has only increased the dangers for women and girls, though, and they will live with that increased risk for many months, if not years, to come.
Single parenting, widespread in Haiti, is well accepted and closely tied to the issue of concubines. In Haitian society, a well-accepted practice is for men to have a wife and a mistress, the latter relationship is referred to as placage. Both women bear children. The mistress raises her children alone and with minimal support from the father. These children are often known by the man’s family but are not known to the wife. Haitian women in general know that their husbands are involved outside the home and pretend not to know. Health education, birth control, and safe s*x are issues that should be approached with sensitivity and acceptance within cultural boundaries.
Sabrina Lamb needs to concentrate on her own pathetic excuse for a culture.
..excuse me, I meant “degrees” Dr
Instead of criticizing Oxygen and Shawty Lo, we SHOULD ALL PLEDGE TO WATCH THE SHOW, AND HELP THIS YOUNG MAN FEED HIS BLACK BABIES FROM BLACK WOMEN, AND THANK HIM FOR MAKING UP FOR THESE NON-PRODUCING NEGROES FALLING DOWN ON THEIR JOB OF BEING FRUITFUL AND MULTIPLYING.
Stop hating on the poor Dr. Boyce. YOU ARE STILL ONE OF THEM, AND ONE JOB REMOVED.
help them. dont criticize.
h**l NO I’M NOT HELPING HIM FEED HIS KIDS! TELL HIM AND THE BABY MAMA’S TO GET TWO OR THREE JOBS LIKE OTHER PARENTS DO WHEN THEY NEED X-TRA MONEY.
They have highly paid jobs on their reality show. I know you wouild rather see them drug dealing and getting you your poison rocks
This baby mama drama, my baby daddy, and all the rest of this bullshyt are nothing, but code words to degrade Black people, mainly young Black women.
These words BABY DADDY DRAMA/MY BABY MAMA DRAMA, are references to young Black people, in the inner city, which means DYSFUNCTIONAL and FAMILY PROPAGANDA/DRAMA. These words are used ALL the time by negroids and caucasoids, but the True meaning of these words are ONLY underSTOOD by caucasoids when they speak in their coded language of RACISM. These words are used to decribed the HATE, that Black fathers and mohters have for each other, and the NEGATIVE relationships they have with their children.
Ukuthula! (Peace!)
Poor Derrick is committed to black rascism and refuses to judge each white person as they come. At least think about it, Derrick.
This is really SAD! What kind of message will this send to our young sons and daughters? That it’s okay to have 10 babies from 10 different men or that it’s okay to father 10 children from 10 different women. Hasn’t the black family taken enough criticism from white people and the media. This s**t makes us look real STUPID! BLACK MAN & BLACK WOMAN…. PLEASE DON’T SUPPORT THIS IGNORANCE!!!!!!
The problem with you people is you see yourselves as a collective and there is no sense of individuality among the majority.
With or without this show, there will still be some black people who are going to be ne’er do well baby daddies and baby mamas. If you’re not involved in the dysfunction, why relate to it?
Shawty lo doesn’t represent black people, so none of you should take it personal.
What do I know though, afterall I am a “booty scratching foreign black” like one female imbecilic poster loves to say.
Your name is Martian. That says a lot.
If he can provide for all of his children, so what?
There is nothing wrong with polygamy. To each his or her own Boyce. Further more he is in the lives of his children. Boyce, for someone who habitually complains about racism, you sure do embrace a lot of fascist principles. Here is a man living with and taking care of his large family, stop being jealous.
Hey, it’s Professor Shawty Lo!
LOL!
I would support shawty any day over jamie foxx ignorant azz. All jamie’s millions are being used to care for white women and their offspring. And lately negro entertainers like usher, dwayne, etc., are too d**n low down to support the BLACK mothers of their children. Instead they’re dumb enough to take them away from the only women who will ever love and genuinely care for them – THEIR BLACK MOTHERS.
I dont support any negro in entertainment who is not intelligent enough to understand that marriage and children are about more than temporary love. It is about leaving your legacy to care for your OWN BLACK WOMEN AND CHILDREN. These fools with entertainment dollars, cant wait to pass it back to the white community by mating and marrying outside their race. Then they sit around and ponder why their movies and music aren’t selling.
Shawty is a hero for taking care of black women, and black children.
And worse of all is that Usher, Dwyane, etc., are going to feed 3rd world non-christian black/brown nannies to raise their children. These uneducated slum dwellers will impart their values into the children, and when the children grow up to be fools, their ignorant fathers wont understand why, the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world.
WHY DONT YOU TALK ABOUT THAT DR. BOYCE??? I KNOW YOU MUST BE INTELLIGENT ENOUGH TO KNOW THAT FEEDING AND CARING FOR BLACK CHRISTIAN MOTHERS IS BETTER THAN HAVING YOUR BLACK CHILD RAISED BY A 3RD WORLD NANNY. IF YOU’RE GOING TO FEED A WOMAN TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR CHILDREN, IT SHOULD BE THE WOMAN WHO BORE THEM AND CARRIED THEM FOR NINE MONTHS.
I’LL BE WAITING BOYCE.
“YOU PEOPLE”?…..REALLY? smh
Yes “YOU PEOPLE”. if the shoe fits wear it……….if it doesn’t just got barefoot and keep it moving.
THE TV IS ABOUT ENTERTAINMENT BISH. IT IS NOT THERE TO RAISE YOUR d**n CHILDREN.
I DONT HEAR YOUR BLACK SELF COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SHOW THAT HAS 2 GAY GUYS PAYING WOMEN TO HAVE A BABY FOR THEM. DUMB AZZ.
EVERY SINCE THE WHITE MEN STOPPED ENSLAVING BLACK BABIES, THEY HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT BLACK BABIES BEING BORN AND DUMB IGNORANT NEGROES MIMIC THEM.
DURING SLAVERY THE MASSAH CELEBRATED EVERY NEGRO BORN. STOP YOUR STUPIDITY AND BE HAPPY WHEN YOUR COMMUNITY SURVIVES THE GENOCIDE PLANNED FOR IT BY PLANNED PARENTHOOD AND YOUR GOVT NEGROES.
You MUST be kidding me. Making babies just so we can have strength in numbers is absurd. I also wouldn’t classify this junk as entertainment but buffoonery. As Michael Jackson stated so eloquently in “Want To Be Starting Something” from his “Thriller” album, if you can’t feed your baby then don’t have one. And I’m sure this idiot with these kids can’t possibly feed or take care of all his kids. Without proper supervision these kids will go out and harm or kill each other or other people and wind of dead or in prison. Then will the numbers matter then?
You’re a fool. THE MAN HAS HIS OWN REALITY TV SHOW WHICH EQUALS TO MONEY AND MO MONEY to feed his kids.
Dirty negroes like you are so desperate to stop him from feeding his kids legally through his tv program that you’re praying to have it end, so that he’ll be forced to sell drugs. You never complain about that. You want these young men out there getting your drugs for you. That is really what all the complaints are about.
I havent heard your black self complain once about the white guy who is a polygamist and only legally married to one, with the rest getting all kinds of govt aid.
GARBAGE IS GARBAGE! This type of programming feeds into every negative stereotype in the Black community. I do not care about “keeping it real”; instead how about “making it right.” This show glorifies promiscuous behavior and is dangerous. We have had enough of this reality TV junk to poison an entire community.
The subject matter is a joke. It is designed to one thing and that is make money.
your entire life is about making a living – AKA money, fool
Utterly ridiculous! Really Oxygen Network?!
during your mother’s generation with every negro either in the cotton field, or working in a white woman’s kitchen, and NO husbands THEY CHOSE TO HAVE YOU AND DR BOYCE, AND GIVE YOU LIFE, INSTEAD OF DEATH BY ABORTION.
I HAVENT HEARD YOU OR DR BOYCE SAY YOU WOULD PREFER TO BE ABORTED IF YOU COULDN’T BE BORN WELL OFF.
I need a minute to process what I just saw in the video…because right now I am sickened by this whole thing and if there is any sense of pride in the Black community, now is the time to shut this down! That young lady smelled his feet for the camera….are you kidding me? Where are her parents? OMG…this is deplorable.

Hoe culture is taking over black America, this started probably about 35 years old and it only gets worse year after year. These Negroes possess an amazing thirst for coonery and love to show innovative ways to embarrass themselves and the whole race. This c**p is in our schools, churches and homes.

You obviously have no concept of shame or what responsibility means.

THIS is utterly ridiculious why even glamorize this mess, you know that the women are gonna be beefing cting a fool and he ain’t gonna make it any better.this is just what some see us as buffoons and baby makers. but these women need to stop sleeping with these dudes that have a lot of kids already and then get pregnant thinking they are they one he will put a ring on , h**l he probbly has 3 or more preganant at the same time as you. wommen need to wake the h**l up.
Everyone has the right to LIFE,LIBERTY and the pursuit of happiness as THEY SEE FIT. They dont need your lonely, no child having, cant get a man, havent had a real o****m with a man, ignorant self telling them what your version of happiness is.
We cannot place all of the blame on Shawty Lo. Let talk about these stupid a*s opportunistic hoodrats who trying to gain notoriety. They all know who he is and how many other kids he has. It they had common sense they would of google his demographics.
Everyone has a GOD given right to reproduce, so you and your white massah needs to stop complaining. You uncle tom’s dont want black children born because you cant enslave them any more. You and your massah was happy as h**l during slavery, every time a black slave child was born.
Stop generational curses. Stop stupidity.
If they were on gov’t assistance, then they’re already in the new American slave class…..what’s the Plan B for those kids if the show gets cancelled?
Let’s not get things confused, children aren’t your property….they’re your responsibility!
There is so much blame to go around for this mess.
1. The uneducated fool of a rapper, who thinks it is cool to spread his seed around like it’s money (which he will be short of soon)
2. The dumb a*s females that were more than willing to lay and bred with this fool. The first one could not possibly have known just how foolish this man was. The second one, maybe thinking that the first one “just did not work out” and gave him another chance. Now the third through the tenth are just fools and really should find out what is wrong with themselves or are looking for that temporary gravy train (most rappers do not have long careers).
3. OWN, why in the h**l would they put this c**p on in the first place! What the h**l are they trying to prove? I want to know who will sponsor this BS anyway because I will no longer be getting anything from them.
4. Finally, the below average viewer that actually believe that this c**p is entertaining. If there are not enough stupid people that watch this form of fecal confusion they will pull it off of the air (hopefully)
So, you want everyone in the world to see ALL negroes sitting on a throne, with mansions and servants, huh?
When they ride through the hood and see poverty, crime, and mayhem, they’re supposed to believe that LIE they see on the TV, huh?
U STUPID!!!! AS h**l!!!

I have said this many times before – sometimes it is best not to have the father around.
corbin56 as harsh as that sounds, it CAN be a true statement in many cases, but a businessman making money like shawty has a LOT to teach his black child about success/survival. By having a show he has accomplished more than me, and you and boyce put together and I applaud him for that.
Agreed! By the way @corbin56, don’t forget it takes two.
Oxygen shouldn’t be ashamed , this dumbass should be . But you know what he is glorified there is no shame. The realization is we act like animals and we breed like dogs . Pitiful we are exhibiting all the stereotypes that so many have fought and died for to change. Look what the movement wrought
u sound like an impotent limp d8ck who doesn’t know that a REAL man takes care of womens s****l needs and reproduces. u r pathetic.
They let this media cultural gennie out the bottle years ago.., I refuse to pass judgement on the *one reality show w/o wrapping them ALL UP for the trash.. That even goes for the mind-control of the criminalistic nature the music industry has taken young people into,. The idea resolve would be to slowly filter the media cultural filth.. The most resistence AA comunity lobbied for was using the word “B*cth” or “F-police and in hindsight the poisen has increased ten-fold..
MORE REALITY GARBAGE! Will we ever learn. This is the bottom of the barrel so to speak. Reality TV in its current state belongs in 4 categories:(1)Frankenstein on steroids, (2)The Mummy on heroin, (3)The Werewolf on crystal meth, (4)Dracula on crack. Those who watch this pathetic junk must be on some addictive drug as well or have nothing better to do with their lives. Are we going to fall into a bottomless pit. Dr. Watkins you are right on cue as to this stench. It says in the Bible that satan is the prince of the airwaves and junk like this very well solidifies it, sadly.
You piece of dirty horse sh8t!!! how dare you call shawtty’s beautiful children such names. i hope u rot in h**l.
I have no use for certain people, I don’t talk to them or about them, I won’t promote them or their cause.
This person who’s name I will not even speak falls into that category. If you think he is doing a dis-service treat him and anything he is associated with as such.
It might help you to know, all of our TV programs are seen in 113 different countries, what they see is what they believe to be true about America.
WHO GIVES A RAT’S AZZ ABOUT WHAT SOME 3RD WORLD CAVE DWELLER THINKS. THEY HAVENT GIVEN ONE DIME TO A POOR BLACK AMERICAN. WE FEED THEIR SORRY NO HUSBAND HAVING, OUR CULTURE DOESN’T ALLOW US TO USE BIRTH CONTROL, FOOLS.
THEY NEED TO GET THEIR BEGGING 3RD WORLD SNOTTY NOSE BRATS OFF OF OUR TV.
My gawd,has he not heard of the emancipation proclamation of 1863?! Shawty-screw every-thang,get off the frickin plantation! In slavery Black males were forced to sleep with a rack of women to produce future slaves and keep the profits from the slave trade moving. But Negro there is no “massa” forcing you to have all those baby mamas! Your simply a slave to l**t and nastiness and now ur gonna pimp your lifestyle and have your kids believing that wreckless s*x with no commitment is morally correct. So tired of African Americans being depicted on television as ignorant immoral people!
Kdd if shawty lo and all the drug boys get a good paying job you wont get your crack. boohoo. i know u hate to see one of them escape the prison/drug life.
PLEASE BOYCOTT THIS SHOW!!!!!!!

Jaw dropping. my heart goes out to the innocent children born into thee must ratchet mess ever. Between him and Cromarte, I’m good.
d**n near all of africa and the caribbean produce 99% single parent babies that live in mud huts. u need to go over there and tell them to stop reproducing and stop begging america to feed them.
Ridiculous!!!
Had not African men become apartheided from their families during slavery, maybe just maybe, we would not be criticizing this.
Men from many different races/ ethnicities have participated in the same behaviour and it is not as highlighted as it is regarding African American men.
Why?
The children are here to stay!
The women have been tricked or are confused if they knew that the man was with someone else.
Love them!
The women weren’t tricked. Their is a HUGE man shortage of real men who LOVE women. The rich black negroes marry outside the race, and the professional black man is a fool who thinks that little job is all he needs, then you have the gay/downlow crowd, so that leaves only the poor black REAL man to service a lot of women. WOMEN ARE SO EXCITED TO HAVE A MAN, ACT LIKE A REAL MAN, SHOWING THEM SOME LOVE AND ATTENTION THAT THEY WANT TO ATTACH TO HIM FOREVER. Can’t blame them. These REAL men are all we have to carry on the race.
Dr. Boyce:
Please start a serious campaign to get this show and others like it off the air.
Readers: Let us donate at least $25 each to Dr. Boyce to help cover the cost of staff and overhead for this campaign.
These shows will DEFINITELY cause policemen, mortgage lenders, universities admissions officers and employers to shut us out with even greater vengeance than before.
The joke is on us. And let’s not be stupid enough to say that “Honey Boo-Boo” is on so we can have these shows. The massive number of white scientists, university professors, supreme court justices, senators etc. make “Honey Boo-Boo” the exception. Shows like Shawtey Lo and Basketball wives make it seem that this is who and what we are. One black president is not enough to cancel the impact of these shows. Again, the effect will be to make people discriminate against us more viciously. And THAT is what the producers want.
@Jennie:
We need to start an on-line petition to stop this madness. I found out the names of two producers, who are producing this garbage: They are Lizgateley and Tony Disanto.
Also, you can call OXYGEN MEDIA c/o: Rebbecca Boswell, and her number is 818-840-2510 (she’s in L.A.)
Ukuthula!
U NEED TO GET YOUR BROKE MAMMY OFF THE STRIPPER POLE BUT YOU DONT CARE ABOUT THAT BECAUSE SHE ONLY MAKES PENNIES. STOPPING NEGROES FROM GETTING RICH IS YOUR BIGGEST DESIRE, BECAUSE IT AINT YOUR BLACK SELF.
I need to spank your young faggit azz! Why don’t you go pick your mammy up at hotel 6. She finished selling here rotten cu*nt after xmess!
YOUR DADDY IS BLACK…go figure!
I would support shawty any day over jamie foxx ignorant azz. All jamie’s millions are being used to care for white women and their offspring. And lately negro entertainers like usher, dwayne, etc., are too d**n low down to support the BLACK mothers of their children. Instead they’re dumb enough to take them away from the only women who will ever love and genuinely care for them – THEIR BLACK MOTHERS.
I dont support any negro in entertainment who is not intelligent enough to understand that marriage and children are about more than temporary love. It is about leaving your legacy to care for your OWN BLACK WOMEN AND CHILDREN. These fools with entertainment dollars, cant wait to pass it back to the white community by mating and marrying outside their race. Then they sit around and ponder why their movies and music aren’t selling.
Shawty is a hero for taking care of black women, and black children.
YOU COULDN’T STOP AND SHUT DOWN OUR RAP COMMUNITY AND YOUR DIRTY AZZ WONT BE ABLE TO SHUT THIS MAN DOWN FOR MAKING A LEGAL LIVING. WHITES MAKE A LOT OF MONEY OFF OF THESE SHOWS. THEY CERTAINLY WONT LISTEN TO YOUR FOOL AZZ PETITION.
DIRTY PIECE OF JEALOUS TRASH IS WHAT YOU ARE.
America has loss their minds because they are paying for the sins of slavery which has never been acknowledged except by one man!!Any man who continues to have 10 or eleven children outside of marriage is MENTALLY UNSTABLE AND NEEDS TO COME OUT OF THE CLOSET. Women don’t realize every man they have s*x with is carrying a good or bad SPIRIT(besides STD’s)from every woman or man whom he has been active with sexually.Some of the women are looking for a pay check for 18 or 19 years.They are responsible more than men.They can say “No”. In the 50′s and 60′s, there were many women who died from pregnancy by using coat hangers and going to quacks to get rid of unwanted babies. Some used legitimate doctors.We have numerous means of “Not Getting Pregnant” today but there are more unwanted and uncared for babies now.WHO WANTS TO SEE THIS ON TV EXCEPT IGNORANT PEOPLE.Go and
and tell young men and women not to be like like you. You and the mothers of your children get 2 or 3 jobs. Sacrifice for those children
I’m going to watch it, and every one I know is going to watch it. We love it just like Honey Boo Boo. His kids are going to be as cute as Honey Boo Boo and there isn’t a d**n thing u can do about it.
Tameka,there is nothing cute about Honey Boo,her mother,or you.Romans10:9

We curses the man what about the accountablity of the women who are making the decesion to become pregnant in the circumstance.Yes it’s
polygamcy and it for the love of money that the women are choosing
to willfuly particapted. Chid Support Laws were creative to destory our families and yet we embraces them what A ignorant people. Child Support Laws were creative under Welfare Reform If you care enough to do the research you find that this is a master plan by oppressor to destory us. We are at the point of no return. This media drama by Oxygen is a tool use by our oppressor to futher indoctrinate our demise. We need to take a collective apporch to this destruction as we see the economic breakdown ,social breakdown ,dehumanizing, as our young girls minds or driven to choose pregnant over education
as our children or stricken with poverty and given the example of hopeless and we ask why our children do not have a value for life. I PRAY FOR THE BLACK COMMUNITY.
too big a fool to pay your child support willingly, huh????
@Jennie:
This is a good time for Dr. Boyce to put this ignorance on BLAST!
This is why I call these low-life negroids; sc(rappers) and hip/slop artist because the garbage they sing and do, needs to be SCRAPPED in a junk yard because it’s nothing, but TRASH and SLOP!!!
I agree with you, Jennie, and I am willing to do my part! It’s time to put away mouth service, Black people, and it’s time to UNITE and ORGANIZE, so WE can put a stop to this garbage the media (mindless evil devils in action) is portraying by putting these negative images of our people on tell-a-LIE-vision!!!
Dr. Boyce, it’s time to cut the CHATTER and get on with the CLATTER because we need to make some NOISE about how the media, religion, and this racist educational system are dumbing down, and doping up our children and some adults. You can use this site and your voice to start a BOYCOTT of this foolishness.
The movie, Django, is another buffoonery film to keep our people MENTALLY ENSLAVED!!!
Ukuthula! (Peace!)
*Jennie, stay on this site, so we can communicate about this matter!!!
UNITY is STRENGTH and POWER; let’s use it!!!
What is “ratchedness”? It’s not a word in the English language. Do you mean “wretchedness”?
That’s caribbean slang based off of a combination of african/english dialect. Sort of like “I’m gwine to the sto.”
We need not get upset, all we need to do is not watch oxygen and participate in more foolish programming that defiles our women and us as a people. These women have a moral responsibility as well in not having unprotected s*x with these men at the risk of becoming diseased because of the multiple partners these men bed, young women should realize if they have all those kids, my kid will not get it’s fathers full attention and a check will not compensate for lack of a daddy. Be smart because if he is sexually irresponsible he will be financially irresponsible as well and the check you expected may not come for at least seventeen of those eighteen years that you were expecting
@Erica:
We need to get upset because what our children see on tell-a-LIE-vision, hear on the radio, play on the videos, and see what’s going on in their environment, they will repeat it.
The media know what they are doing. By the time a Black child reaches school age, they would’ve viewed over 40,000 images of voilence on tell-a-LIE-vision and other media outlets. When they view garbage of this nature, they will imitate it later on in life because this is what they are TRAINED to do. Our children are brainwashed the minute they start public school.
Young brothers grow up to think that bling, cars, drugs, and women are successful traits. This is what hip/slop has done to young Black boys and young Black girls. They think that being a sc(rapper) or hip/slop artist, and making money is that ‘thang’.
Only 41% of Black males graduate from high school. The other 59% end up on the streets, in jail, selling drugs, addicted to drugs, or just make babies. This is all they know how to do, and the more the media show this garbage to our children, the more they listen to this garbage on the radio; they become possessed, and addicted to this bullshyt. They see, so many killings, and young girls with babies on the streets, in their schools, in the movies, IN THEIR HOMES, and on tell-a-LIE-vision, they grow up to think this is ‘normal’ behavior. Most of them are fatherless; therefore, having a baby or babies gives them something to love.
The government controls our children! Most people don’t know that SE (Special Education) is a $60 billion dollar industry, and 12% of ALL public school students in amerikkka are labeled SE students. There are over 6 million children enrolled in SE…4 million are males, two million are females. Afrikan amerikkkan students are placed 73% of the time, while 92% are tested!!!
85% Of all special education students receive drugs!!!
THE GOVERNMENT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR FEEDING OUR CHILDREN RITALIN!!! THIS IS THE REAL REASON THEY ARE CRAZY!!! DRUGS MESS UP YOUR MIND.

I hate rappers ,the hip hop culture has done more damage and disservice to black culture since i was ranting about the effects of hip hop on another black website back in 2001 ,but black folks nowadays are messed up,i do agree that this shawty lo is a complete waste of space ,but then again black folks moan about him ,but are willing to go and pay money to go see Quinten tarrantinos N word laced piece of shyte and slagging of Spike Lee at the same time.

Marcus have you seen DJango? I bet you haven’t. It is an awesome film, the N word is just a small matter compared to the rest of the film. It is a revenge movie on white folks for racism. Please think for yourself or at least see the film first and form your OWN opinion. I felt like you in the beginning, however I made a conscious decision to form my own opinion and I am glad I did. Go see the movie.
I was a young teenager and produce children by more than one woman. One lady brought the child to the door one day and I didn’t even know she was having a child. One woman told me that the SINS of my father fell on me. However, I was responsible for children that didn’t ask to be here and I had to put my best foot forward and earn my title “Daddy”. I talk to my children about my inappropriate behavior and praying that iit stop with me. I give no credit to myself but I thank G-d my children didn’t have any children in high school or baby mama & baby daddies . I tell them all be careful who u share your self with /have children with. We must up lift ourselves from this behavior . Men let’s US stop debasing our self. This is a SUBCULTURE from slavey and it time for a change . So, if u are guilty of this behavior , u must check u and make sure the next generation do better. Our women are better than setting for just being a baby mama. Change , change , it time to look at self.
TO ALL THOSE WHO ARE AGAIST SHAWTY LO AND HIS HUSTLE TO PROVIDE FOR HIS KIDS AND THE MOTHERS AS WELL…LIKE STFU UP!! WHO CARES ABOUT HIM PUBLICLY SHOWING HIS FAMILY..THOSE ARE HIS KIDS AND THAT IS HIS LIFE…WHY IS EVERYONE SO FREAKING UPSET ABOUT THIS BLACK MALE MAKING IT IN THIS WHITE AMERIKKA?

BOYCE STFU YOU ARE ALWAYS ENTERTAINING BLACKS ABOUT RACISISM IN AMERIKKKA YET YOU POSTING FASCIT PRINCIPLES. DONT YOU SEE YOU ARE COMING OFF AS A JEALOUS CONFUSED BIGOT AGAIST YOUR OWN KIND!!!!! BLACK MEN STRIVE TO BE THE BEST. TO EACH IT’S OWN. IF YOU ARE TRYING TO PICKIT HIS SHOW, I SUGGEST YOU DO OTHER REALITY SHOWS AS WELL!! IT’S SAD AND MESSED UP TO SEE ANOTHER BLACK MALE TEAR DOWN ANOTHER!!!! PLEAASE CUT THE BS WITH THIS SLAVERY THIS AND MASSAH THAT.. LIKE SERIOUSLY GROW THE F*** UP!!!!!!

There is nothing left to be done to you….they have succeeded!
THINK ABOUT IT!!!
GREAT MINDS DISCUSS IDEAS. AVERAGE MINDS DISCUSS EVENTS.SMALL MINDS DISCUSS PEOPLE.
Again, another case of someone willing to make a jackass out of themselves. First, where do these folks get these ridiculous names? Shawty Lo? It’s as they sit around someplace and call the first foolish thought that comes into their heads and turn into a stage name. Second, self esteem issues abound with these women if they feel that they’ve hit pay dirt by becoming pregnant by some second tier rapper that in all actually only cares and loves himself more than anything else or anyone. If that weren’t the case, there wouldn’t be all these kids to exploit on a reality show. Third, and speaking of the children, nevermind being on TV, this thoughtless,narcissistic person should really be hauled into jail for child abuse.
your sorry azz wish someone would pay you and your baboon face kid millions to be on a talk show, dont you?
This is disgusting! Can you image how many vaginas this idiot has inserted his p***s in (unprotected at that). We only know about 10 but what about others we don’t know about? I not only blame him but the women who were stupid enough to sleep with him unprotected. No wonder HIV/AIDS is rampant in the African-American community.
Stop believing stupid propaganda, that white rascist feed you, about black women being the only ones HIV infected. White men dont believe it. They know black puzzy is cleaner and better than white puzzy.
Hispanics are hugely HIV infected, Indians, Chinese, but you dont hear them running around genociding themselves with condoms. And you wont ever hear them owning up to the HUGE rates of infection in their community. You stupid as h**l.
DO YOU BELIEVE EVERYTHING RASCIST TELL YOU??? DO YOU THINK HEALTH PROFESSIONALS TOOK AN OATH NOT TO BE RASCIST. DON’T BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU HEAR.
GAYS AND IV DRUG USERS, AND FOREIGN BLACKS FROM AFRICA AND THE CARIBBEAN ARE THE BIGGEST GROUPS WITH AIDS IN THIS COUNTRY. THAT WAS TRUE WHEN IT STARTED AND IT STILL IS TRUE.There is one, only one, cause of the AIDS crisis — the willful refusal of homosexuals to cease indulging in the immoral, unnatural, unsanitary, unhealthy, and suicidal practice of a**l intercourse, which is the primary means by which the AIDS virus is being spread throughout the “gay” community, and, thence, into the needles of IV drug abusers, the transfusions of hemophiliacs, and the bloodstreams of unsuspecting health workers, prostitutes, lovers, wives and children.41
..with all the spamming and trolling going on in this thread, clearly there are no rules or moderator. Shame because I believe Dr. Boyce does have a valid point, in other words this is a hot mess! If there was a woman with multi-baby fathers I’m sure not so many people would be agreeing with this madness. I can’t and won’t co-sign this show because I refuse to contribute to sl@@ty behaviors. Don’t bother calling me names, insulting me etc. because I won’t fight with you either. Happy New Year Everybody!
If black people care anything about our future, I would strongly recommend boycotting the show! This is exploitation and should not be tolerated in this day and time. Why give someone a stick to beat you with?
I would recommend you, to pay attention to that drug addict schizophrenic family of yours rather than focusing on the tv. U R the primary role models for the children in your family. And stop letting them watch all those p**n videos you think you hid.
Add that c**n to the top 5 shows that shame(d)the black community by xavier james. Truth be told Jews and homosexuals own most networks and green lights most projects. Go to them with your complaints.
@Tameka: “Shawty is a hero for taking care of black women, and black children.”
—————————————–
Anytime a negroid, such as yourself, calls this pu*nk of a boy, a hero; you need to be beaten with bobwire!!! I guess you would have your son or daughter look up to a clown, like this to call a hero, eh? I see, why you are called “tameka”. YOU HEARD ABOUT THAT ‘FRUIT’ NOT FALLING TOO FAR FROM THE TREE? You would love for your daughter to marry this ‘hero’, right?
This pu*nk, and his tourage are being paid to act a da*mn fool on tell-a-LIE-vision, so Blacks can continue to look like buffoons and baby breeders! If you had a brain; you would OVERstand, that he is just ‘pimping’ his children, who have no say/so in this buffoonery.
If he was ‘taking care of his kids’, he wouldn’t have them on tell-a-LIE-vision, projecting them, like they’re just a herd of animals. Y’all negroids just don’t get it…all you crazy c*oons think about is money. These weasels are only getting peanuts, compared to those khazars, who produced this shyt, who are making billions off of their trivling azzes!!!
Pro ball players get paid millions, while their overseers (owners) are paid BILLIONS, OFF THE BACKS OF THESE BLACK BALL PLAYERS! These demons did this during our forced enslavement; therefore, NOTHING has changed?
This is modernized slavery, and y’all can’t see “INTO” this media shyt!!! All y’all negroids do is ‘look at it’…there’s a difference.
What they are projecting on THEIR media outlets are no different from the buffoonery, they projected on the screen when we were enslaved. NOTHING was NEVER positive about the portrayal of Black people back then, or today!!!
One thing for sure
There is a vast % of black people who like to watch this updated coonery type so-called entertainment.
Some of these same black people then wonder why they be called
the n word or why the crook,racist police like to whoop that behind and call them a n word.
You think by now that black people would be done with all this coonism,plantation jiggaboo madness.
But I guess some will be waiting for Part 2 of djrango.
The kkk is having a great laugh for sure.
I watched a few trailers of the show and in my opinion, this show won’t last beyond what has been already taped. What I saw was very shallow and unless they have some s*x scenes or chick fights there will be no reason to tune in the second time.
I know more great Black men than not! In fact as a black woman, I don’t even tolerate the nonsense and if more young women would lady- up and demand respect instaed of selling out for ignorant cash and setting future generations up for this kind of degradation, our productivity in our community would be much better.
Love you Dr Boyce for being a positive example! Thank you so much
