I watched the full Kelis interview and there is sooooo much to dissect.

Nas has done so much to kelis’ reputation over the years. Dragging her through the mud. And she’s been so loyal and gracious to him over the years. She’s a Leo stellium. Leo through and trough.

You can tell it’s been killing Kelis no to speak her truth. Not because she’s private or scared or weak, but it made her feel weak that she couldn’t shine a light on her truth. And Rihanna’s situation was triggering for her.

She said something to the effect of “yes he hit me but I hit him back” and I felt that. Many of you think people who end up in toxic situations are docile and complicit but they aren’t. They fight back and that’s part of the reason many go back or stay. They feel accountability.

The drinking. She said he drinks/drank a lot. To the point of blacking out. Im sure there was other substance use she omitted on both sides because you can hear some hesitation in her voice when she talks about it.

Then the controlling temperament. Getting mad when she socialized with other people. Then buying her gifts after incidents of abuse. Chile. And I haven’t even gotten to the other means of punishment (re: financial abuse).

That Nigga knew she put money down on a house and when she went back he hasn’t paid on it, so it was in foreclosure and when she called him that Nigga said “go fuck yourself”. To the mother of his infant child.

Then when she started talking about his kid and how she’s not gonna let him come in and out if her son’s life. How can y’all bash that?! Many of you niggas are JUST like that. Want the mothers of your children to cater to you for you to be a present parent.

And she STILL invited that Nigga over for thanksgiving after he showed his ass. A queen. A gracious queen. $8k a month isn’t enough. GIVE HER MORE.

And I cackled when she was talking about Nicki Minaj leaving Nas because he started doing the most with her again. That Nigga won’t leave her alone because he’s unhappy.
