The Life and Tragic Death of Usher’s Stepson Kile

His litle voice! He sounded so good. He was a cutie pie!

[@ahmarindungu9010]

I remember hearing about this story and how it was a freak accident. I feel bad for who had to witness.

[@Queenofdacastle]

Right but that man was being reckless driving that jet ski and cost a child (Kile) his life how sad and then the other child was injured thank God he recovered wonder if or what lasting effects if any he had. And for that man not to show any remorse is absolutely disgusting 😢 RIP baby.

[@roselove8553]

😢

[@Sai.Divine]

I’m so sorry the weird conspiracy theorists are invading your page. This video was very insightful and I think you did a beautiful job of illustrating Kile’s legacy and his mother’s love for him. Rip to that poor baby, and shame on the killer for not taking responsibility. I hope his soul rests peacefully and the ancestors watch over him. Good work like always.

[@danavixen6274]

TRUTH! It's also unfortunate the idiot who caused this tragedy was reckless and should've served more time. 😡

[@AmberColeman-gq1wn]

It’s so crazy how the judge gave custody to usher- as tameka said, her children had never been injured on HER watch. Kile was with his biological dad and girlfriend when he died. And they probably were barely paying attention

[@kuroe-chan5190]

Nah there a lot we don’t know about that marriage. It’s severe when a judge gives a step parent especially a step father full custody….theres more to the story I feel. She may not have had best track record

[@mrscheek7611]

​@@kuroe-chan5190what are you talking about?? What stepfather got full custody? Usher got custody of HIS bio kids.

As a fellow actor and programmer/engineer, I mourn his death. He was a man after my own heart. Thanks J. You’re doing amazing work!

[@crystalsherman8896]

R.I.P to Kile. He looked and seemed to have been a sweet and talented kid. His first wife is a beautiful black woman. I don't and didn't like how people were calling her ugly and she is not. Usher was wrong for cheating on her before and during the marriage, allegedly.

[@taniyahteonyce]

I absolutely love your channel!!! Can you please do the demise of Jennifer Hudson’s mom, brother & nephew. That was a pretty interesting & sad crime/story as well.

[@PinkRose1122]

Oh Yes, that's a great idea. That would definitely be an interesting one.

[@skindippedingold]

I don't see how anyone could use that lake considering it's tragic history.

[@idontknow7738]

Lake Lanier is haunted by our ancestors because of what was done to them.

[@Queenofpositivity]

🤔🤫

[@vvorthabilly]

💯 agreed. nobody could pay me to go to that doggone lake

[@idontknow7738]

@vvorthabilly I hear you on that one! 💯 You know there are many towns here in America where our ancestors resided and had their own prosperous cities, towns, businesses, etc. Our oppressors didn't like it, so they flooded them out, amongst other things. Now, those cities, towns, businesses, etc., are underwater. A lot of our ancestors didn't make it out. Very sad! 😢 I believe the multiple drownings is "karma/payback" from the unsettled souls of our ancestors. But, that is just "my opinion." Peace and much love. ✌🏾❤️❤️✌🏾

[@idontknow7738]

@vvorthabilly P.S. Two cities/towns: Tulsa, OK, and Rosewood, FL, just to name a few out of many that were destroyed by the enemies who couldn't stand to see our people prosper and have their own. 😪 They bombed Tulsa and killed hundreds of people. The same thing with happened in Rosewood, Florida. They burned down homes and businesses and killed many people because of a "wh*te woman telling lies on a brother.

[@starsintherain2000]

Tameka is a forgiving woman, that man deserves all the time he got. He knew he was being crazy reckless on that jet ski, and one child lost their life because of his actions. Accident or not, he should've taken more accountability.

[@kingderald]

The fact that the lake is cursed and people are still swimming in it, is crazy. Something doesn’t feel right still.

[@jetwills7264]

Most people ain’t aware. Millions visit the lake each year

[@Tomtaylor7337]

I agree with you 👍

[@mysteriouscee1086]

because that lake has a horrible history with dark energy connected its a literal graveyard and it’s very haunted.

[@brivonn]

That lake is very haunted. They should have permanently closed off that lake a very long time ago. Too many tragedies. RIP to sweet forever young Kile ❤

[@kmonbentleysworld]

It’s a sad shame ppl knowingly swimming on graves. So disrespectful to say the least.

[@reneishabrooks5187]

Its always sad when a child passes, but even more when the child is so bright and intelligent.

[@nicolegarfman4460]

It's sad Usher took custody of their boys knowing her loss. Then almost lost their son in the pool poor women

[@willdiesel8431]

Are you saying he did it for spite?

[@nicolegarfman4460]

@willdiesel8431 no just that it was hurtful she already had a loss let her have her boys . She felt both fathers were negligent in protecting her sons that's all. I feel he didn't need to get full custody but we don't always know how people are behind closed doors that's all

[@moodyinformed]

​@@nicolegarfman4460yeah i feel that she must hav had something bad going on for him to receive full custody. I know hes a celeb but still fathers rarely get the benefit of the doubt and get handed FULL custody like that. There were a few stories about her going around back then but idk if true or gossip or a mix of both. Can't even really remember much of it tbh but this whole story is sad.

[@Xessa82]

​@@nicolegarfman4460 I'm sorry but that's a ridiculous way of thinking. Judges don't award custody of children to a parent to make them feel better. They award based on what's in the best interest of the children. It's not the children's responsibility to heal their mother. That's what therapy is for. If a parent thinks their children would be better off with them then they should fight to get custody no matter what the other parent has been through. A custody hearing isn't about the parents, it's about the children. The judge obviously felt that Usher was in a better place to care for these children and made that decision more than once. That doesn't necessarily mean that the mother even did anything wrong. It just means that the judge felt the children would thrive better with their father.

[@erwill9170]

And that the judge was handsomely given a thank you to Mr Raymond.

I think it's messed up that he took primary custody of those children from her especially after the loss of her first born...smh. She'd be able to spend more time with them daily than he would with how his schedule's set up or whatnot. And it's literally because he's the "popular parent" with money.

I don’t know if you know about Grace Miguel, but she was supposed to be married to Usher.. as a matter of fact she & Usher was engaged to be married, but they divorced because Grace wanted children & Usher didn’t want to have children with her. They separated in 2018. Then in 2019… Usher had two kids with his new “woman” Jennifer Goicochea 😒 not even a year later. That was messed up. Imho

[@niicolee06]

There’s something he saw in her that made him come up with that conclusion.

[@heavensartangel28]

​@niicolee06 to be correct. Around that time the Usher and Grace relationship deteriorated. Usher was cheating with multiple women, which later came out in a public lawsuit due to Usher allegedly giving one of the women Herpes. Usher was accused by multiple women and a man of being given herpes. Any woman dating or marrying him knowing those risks is crazy.
