    What do yall think about this Quincy Jones interview? I thoughy it was funny. The man is 84, so I know he feels a bit more free to say whats on his mind. Marlon Brando was a nice lookin man back in his day...i csn see him hookin up with Pryor and all the other dudes that Quincy mentioned. But i wonder who was fuckin who? lol

    ^^^Quincy Jones, at almost 85, checked his pockets and he had -1000 fucks left. People who reach a certain age have fun cuz life is often stranger than fiction, and they've got a lifetime of cataclysmic stories to tell. I believe him.

    ^^^twitter's pearls-clutchin' reaction.

    laugh devon big freedias boyfriend.gif

    ^^^my cumulative reaction. The interview was deliciously bonkers. Pithy. For example, he went from talking about Trump ("He’s a crazy motherfucker. Limited mentally — a megalomaniac, narcissistic. I can’t stand him....he's a fucking idiot") to Ivanka's legs ("She had the most beautiful legs I ever saw in my life. Wrong father, though.") to a diatribe about the laziness he sees in music today ("Listen to the music — these guys don’t know what they’re doing"). Delicious I say. If I live until even 75, I hope I'm rattling some fools' cages like this. T Pain already got his card pulled and is walking around with his tail between his legs. Hot damn.

    Now, regarding Marlon Brando...dude was vers, obviously. A free-spirited, did-whatever-the-hell-he-felt-like-at-the-time, charming mofo, and definitely vers! He'd always be prepared- he wasn't about let any dude's bottom shame ruin fun that was to be had! NAH! If any of his conquests were hesitant/scared/whatever, he'd just hop on and be done with it. We all know it's hard to top a dude who's all clamped down. And the dude bottoming can obviously be the aggressor. I'd say 2/3 of the time he'd play catcher, only so that he'd actually get some lol

    Yeah sometimes I feel like it sucks because the dead cannot defend themselves. But let's be honest, these salacious things are what society likes to know.

    I already know many dudes from this site would LOVE to know which black male singers, rappers, comedians, actors, etc may have been involved in same sex sexual encounters. TRUST ME! It would have everyone clutching their pearls and at the edge of their seats!

    Forgive me because this is not an attack...BUT

    Comments like these (which are all over social media concerning this issue) annoy the hell outta me.

    If one is to use this logic...we shouldn't talk about the HISTORICAL sexual lives of Kings Tut, King Ramses, Kings James, Thomas Jefferson, Sally Hemings, Maya Angelou, James Baldwin, MLK etc. because to see them as normal, flawed sexual beings (in the case of Jefferson-predatory) is speaking "ill" off.

    These people are public historical figures. Speaking or examining their public and private lives is not "speaking ill of"; its acknowledging history.

    This is partly the reason why non-heterosexuality is so taboo; because the ill-informed or miseducated act as if its a new phenomenon while willfully ignoring prominent historical figures who prove non-heterosexuality has always existed through out history.

    Richard Pryor once dated a trans women. That is not speaking ill of; that'a stating fact.

    Acknowledging or offering proof that someone is homosexual (or non-heterosexual) is not "ill" or a negative. Stop it.

    Totally get ur point. I guess I just have an issue when people that knew a person when they were living finally want to realize secrets after they passed. Like u should off just said it when they were living. But to some extent, because Richard actually jokingly talking about his sexual exploits it's kind of not that bad.
    But to me it's just something he could of keep to himself. Reveal it for what?

    Similar to the issue of this book that hinted Malcom X might have been "family"

    You know I vibe with you bro but I mean shit, they did it lol - at this point, it is what it is lmao. I actually don't think it tarnished any names although I understand you point that it could have. At the same time, not sure it's a bad thing to know the real about somebody who portrayed otherwise lol

    Also in the book Pryor states how he walked in on Miles Davis and Dizzy Gillespie tongue kissing. Read the excerpts …

    Read more: Richard Pryor Openly Dated A Transgender Woman

    So Richard Pryor (the dead) should have kept this to himself also?

    Examining history is examining all of it, not just the parts one may want to hear or personally be interested in.

    Examining history is one of the main factors that lead me to know and understand my sexuality is normal. If it were not for that, this website would not exist in its space nor be presented in its leaning and format.

    BLACK non-heterosexual people need to know there is nothing wrong with us. There is something wrong with regressive abusive religious people who use their power and sexual insecurities for oppression. BLACK people put our celebrities (dead and alive) along with historical figures on pedestals because they represent those who "made it" in the White man's world or show how we were powerful before white colonial supremacists influences.

    We've bought into that to be one of these male figures is to be strong masculine and heterosexual. This is not true and to admit that is to admit that many adored historical non-white male figures (who may have been masculine leaning) were in fact non-heterosexual.

    We're in the year 2018. Homosexuality became sinful, evil or an abomination world wide mostly after 1500's...thats around 500-600 years of this 'current' thinking based on Christian European colonialism via conquering new lands.

    Human civilization is well over 30-50 thousand years old with human sexuality devolving into the current 500-600 year old concepts.

    Its complicated; I haven't read the whole book. But via the research manager for the project the book hints he may have provided "services" for a wealthy white businessman (this was allegedly in his wild days before he came into the Nation). It also hints some other stuff too(small infidelity? when married, being an absent father?, Alex haley's biopic not all true etc). But it was somewhat of a huge controversy b/c the author died right before it was released. Also some felt the research and facts were sloppy. They did a whole cspan panel when the book came out in 2011.

    :wow:But they say Shabazz was a saint compared to our famous Morehouse brother. "Allegedly"

    But this is one of the reasons why I feel like that. Like the person id dead. Uf the information is not about what that person did to better others or to their overall talent/ability, why do I need to know the hotel details etc. Unless they commited a crime I don't see the reliance?:yeshrug:

    Damn Quincey Jones Jr.....

    but nah, when you know the truth of the world, you become more accustomed to reality and learn to how to dodge the bullshit people try to force on you.

    I pray that when I die, they get every detail right, the good and the bad - nobody is perfect.

    I get what ur saying, but Richard Pryor was actually open about his bisexuality from what I understand and his wife confirmed that it happened. Here’s a clip that’s been making the rounds. Ignore the girl at the beginning. That’s a topic for another day.

    I didn’t clutch any pearls, but as I read this, I found it as “deliciously” funny as the story my mild dementia suffering grandma tells about how she was engaged to three men at one time. (Grandma was a virgin, but obviously determined to not have that be the case for long.) I have been exposed to a lot, so not much surprises me. I just find it funny (and validating that “normal” folks can be “freaks”) when folks open up about it...especially when folks act so prudishly.

    I agree with everything Ock already said so I won't repeat it but what I will say is are people really buying the narrative "In those days every one was on heavy drugs so anything could've happen" ? I call BS, some of these men AND women who engaged in same sex relations were simply acting on desire. I'm not saying they were gay but if anything it helps the idea that sexuality is fluid or a spectrum.

    I think it's easier for us to view people from previous generations who are culturally revered like Marlon Brando and Richard Pryor in an almost saintly fashion but these revelations show previous generations were freaks just like we are. They had the same sexual desires and appetites as people today. There was just no internet or social media to broadcast it. There was only rumors and innuendo. Also I think the creative field and entertainment industry tend to attract "free spirits," gays, bisexuals, and liberal minded folks. The good thing about stories like this and about Luther Vandross becoming public is it helps to blow a hole in the Hotep conspiracy theory that non-heterosexual black people are some new fangled thing cooked up in a government laboratory.

    YAWNNNNNNN!!!!!!!

    Why air someone else's business just to open your mouth? It would be nice to look into Quincy's sexual history. I'm pretty sure he would see things so different from the outside in. Unless it is necessary, whether it is true or not, mind your damn business and worry about where your mouth, ass, dick, pussy, etc. interacts with.

    And FYI: Sexuality is NOT fluid. That statement makes it easy for people to assume that non-heterosexual people can flip flop and that everyone is bisexual. Even with some bisexuals being more attracted to one gender than the other and the fact that you can fuck/have sexual interactions and relations with anything or anyone, that still doesn't make that statement any valid.
