[@ohnonotzoey6478]

His energy is another level, all positivity. He dodged a bullet stepping away, does nothing but control and kill your character.

[@hayaglamazonluxe]

He's got a wonderful personality. Tipsy + Hood Hop are hard tracks that still sound good. I'm happy he's doing well and is so positive. Looks like he's saved his money and living well.

[@316Nubein]

some people look like what they went through, luckily he maintained himself and kept a humble spirit. And he looks great for someone who used to be called ugly!

[@thefactsaccordingtogabbie149]

Farah J right, but to me he's a sexy chocolate. He look better now than he did when he first came out. But we all either felt ugly or awakard looking when we was little/younger. He need to tell us his skin routine 🤗.

[@funkypeople4313]

Calling him ugly because he didn't look like his light skinned brothers is disgusting. Black ppl and this Jim Crow mentality is sickening and we need to end the cycle. J-Kwon is extremely good-looking and has a great personality.

[@kokolatte825]

What's disgusting is your mind going straight to some light skinned/ dark skinned stuff when he about half a shade darker than them. Y'all kill me splitting hairs over this "brown skinned" bs. His brother's ain't light skinned and they may happen to be more conventionally good looking.

@@MBYSmusic getting paid for doing something illegal isn't a "so what" thing. You want someone to force you to pay the kinda childcare a rich person pays for 7 years before the system actually listens to logic that should've been done on day one. You got issues. Stars pay as little as $12k/mos. up to $200k/mos.

That's absolutely disgusting, too. It's a ***hustle***. This is why more men are opting out of marriage, and the family life. The woman, the attorneys, the judge, and the State should ALL pay him back....in interest (all entities that profit off of this hustle charge interest, anyway).
