[@iamnottheone3020]

Just finished watching the Mary J Blige documentary on Amazon prime. It was incredibly sad to hear her say that K-Ci beat the shit out of her and abused her for years and that at that time she was heartbroken. She said that she allowed him to abuse her because she was insecure and he knew it so he would manipulate her consistently during that time in her career. Then I googled what happened to KC and was surprised and saddened to hear that he had a stroke two years ago that silenced him and he’ll never sing again. I still believe that the universe will always serve us and give us back what we get the universe. Some people call it karma. It’s really sad because I used to love their music

[@sweeetzz]
