Raz B, if you're seeing this. Ibelieve you 100 percent...Everything they made out like you were crazy for, one day God is going to deal with those people who lied about you and the many evil things they did. You're very strong, humble and it's very clear youre being truthful. Keep focusing on your life and looking after your best interest. We love you
Well said Namo 9596..
Agreed
@@cupofchi_ Yup
I agree! He's very brave and they will all get their justice especially that cousin of his!
Some people aren't brave enough to speak about what happened to them, some people are embarrassed and ashamed. Raz B was Brave for speaking his truth. God Bless him.
Thats messed up people don't like him for speaking out against his abusers. This world is EFFED UP!
Facts
Yeah. It's like double abuse.
He was letting Chris...Stroke.
UNLESS it's PUSHED by media for eg: Bill Cosby , Michael Jackson.Only then folks want to chime in . I wonder why he doesn't open a formal case against Chris Stokes.
@Shontee Williams You don't understand anything about honor. Why don't you tell every dirty thing that has happened in your life? Besides no one cares or can help you anyway. It's better to preserve honor particularly if it was a family member. You say all of them should have spoken out but to who? Who cares and even if they do care they can't help the deed has been done and they can only live with the pain. Life has pain and telling people you story won't make it better. No they have done the right thing to preserve their public image and move on and never let a man bust booty again.
I can feel that every time he says Chris’ name it hurts. You can see the discomfort, I just feel so bad for him. He was the sacrificial lamb.
He looked uncomfortable throughout the whole interview 😔
I thought that too
Not true, it's been said that Lil Fizz was the first to take it up the A. (Poor Kid, Sexual Abuse) Thus, insinuating that the others eventually did too. Also It's been said that they would be put in a room to do stuff to each other while Chris watched. Etc.
100%! I hope Raz B gets all of the help that he needs and CS gets his! bc he’s pure EVIL! He shouldn’t have to apologize to anyone bc it’s ALL TRUE!
Raz B u shouldn’t have to apologize to anyone! bc it’s ALL TRUE!
Let me say this he's accomplish a lot in China and even if people don't like him in the USA cause of his past one thing he did was keep God first and God has blessed him
Jade Kentron well said👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
@Jade Kentron I agree he only went to China after they Victim shamed him & I believe he was molested no one makes up stories like that & his friends should have taken up for him.
Honestly wish more would of been done to protect him and those hurting young boys sent to prison and carry the label they deserved from the start.
@@AK-ky5dh right I wasn't even wasting time too comment on that foolery.
Did this nigga say he could have lokled his booty up.🤦♂️ Smh. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I’m here after the Empressive documentary
Cassey E me too 😂😂😂
Me too😁
Me tooo!
Wow!! Me too😂😂🤣🤣
Me too 😂😂😂😂😂
After watching this, I Like Raz B , I Love how he answers every question... One can see the honesty and genuine man he is . Wish him nothing but the best! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
RazB didn't want to talk about it and Valad still danced around it and asked anyways. He really erks my nerves.
That’s the only reason vlad wanted the interview lol
@@daydayelhombre7635 BINGO!!!
I feel you on that.
I'm glad we've stopped shaming people, especially men, about the sexual abuse they face as children. 10 years ago we should have supported him. We allowed people to call him crazy to discredit him. We need to start listening to people when they cry out in the black community
dreamqueen317 You are correct! And this is one of the main reasons why, men in particular do not discuss their experiences with sexual abuse.
And that's why they take so long to come out a ng d then be judge I always tell my kids if any one touch you or anything let me know and dont let know one tell you that there going hurt your mon and dont keep secrets I tell them anyone doing the hurting will be me so far I have been bless parents you need to believe in your children and protect them I dont do family members dont sleep overs no child coming to my home or you going to no one I thank god for my mom RIP but it's in every family even fathers my dad molested his daughters but like I said I thank for my mom the protector never knew when my mom and dad was never together today I knew and I was told from famiy members sad
Please,women are called sluts still.
@@helloworld3943 that's normally because they are. Not because they were molested.
@@rashadpreston7389 men too then
You can tell he was threatened before doing this interview. He was silenced on a lotttt of stuff.
Yeah, probably because of the the B2K reunion tour coming up this year. If he says anything it could jeopardize the chances of it happening.
He was silenced before to smh
@@roseenchanted8600 Will he ever release any mixtapes?
“At this moment I need to stick to the plan” nervous smile. Yeah ... he was
Hes grown and matured so much... spiritually , psychologically and mentally... It definitely shows .. Love him!
I like how he respectfully declined to discuss the things he didn't feel comfortable doing. He must have prepared for this line of questioning to come up. Good job Raz!
RazB has a story to tell, and when he is ready to share it I will listen. This interview didn't reveal much.
Stacy Robinson We all know thats like 20 years down the road. We all know what happened. MH had something to do with that rape stuff.
@@thea9624 that sucks cause I use to have a major crush on MH

ruclips.net/video/gBKZgpmbLjo/видео.html
He has an ok viedo where he did revel on IG
He looks and is acting very nervous and uncomfortable. I don’t think he wanted to do this interview or if he did, it wasn’t done on his terms. He seems limited in what he was able to say.
I agree, I hope he's bein truthful, not tryin to take anything from wat he's sayin, I tend to want to think I kno wat tellin the absolute truth looks like... The absolute truth..... That means no missin parts...periodt...
It's like he's on something or need to take something. He's all over the place.
@@pilotjm817 that is trauma. Traumatic memories are not processed in the same way as normal memories. They are linked to emotions and so recall is generally not coherent
Iyanla! Where you at Auntie 🤦😩😩 #TimeForSomeHealing #PullThatTruthAllTheWayOut
He didn't do anything wrong 🤷
@@tygalily7614 i didn't say he did....but he definitely needs some healing in his life from WHATEVER happened, none of us know exactly what, but SOMETHING definitely happened 💅💁
Yes!!!
🤣🤣🤣
S W well damn 😂
What part of “I don’t want to talk about it” does VLAD not understand? I hate when people try and pry into the cracks in the pavement after you tell them you don’t want to speak on a subject matter
Lover Boy Ricky Romance sounds like a gay type of name to get men!
Vlad is 1000 % wrong for this
He kept bating him to talk about it 🤯
I agree he is a weird man he sus himself pressing about that 😡
He is disciplined. He must of learned how to control those bad memories, got over them, or healed.
Glad he start off with giving a glory to God that's right
Most shout outs in a single interview award goes too... 😂
I was just thinking this 🔔😆
I love the fact that he's grown from his horrific moments in his life.. Much love.
He’s not lying . I believe him
He’s actually a very intelligent dude
Shout out to all the Intelligent dudes out there.....
He speaks Chinese. That's extremely good.
My favorite member of B2K 😩 met him at Sharpstown Mall in Houston when I was 15 or 16 he was so sweet
What was he doing at Sharpstown?? Probably buying a grill
Raz B sounds just like Omarion so half the time ppl thought Omarion singing it was Raz B.
Tb Sharpstown. Got at least 2 sets of glamour/image shots from there. Lol
Lol which is now plaza americas
Latrice Edwards I be at Plaza America all the time
"As long as there is peace and love, I don't have a problem working with anyone". His very genuine and I like his spirit.
Believe it or not! He's actually a great person in real life. We became cool 2 yrs ago while he was in China, so shout out to my friend Raz.
It's only my opinion but no I don't think he's Gay.
@Lebron James he may be very damaged because of the sexual abuse so relationships with women are probably hard. He has always said he's not gay.
You tell a person " let's stick to the script" , and they say " oh you don't want to talk about the gay accusations ". Come on man!!
praizzzeGod that fucked me up
He was wrong for that why keep baiting on that does it turn him on???
Me and my best friend went to B2K last show in DC the vibe was weird they weren't acting like a group then we got home from the show and the radio announced they broke up. We cried our eyes out. Scream tour was soooo epic. Good middle School memories. Fun fact: half time y'all thought it was Omarion singing it was Raz B they sound just alike.
Wow
Panamanian Muffin Garrison yes! I used to always listen for raz b. Love them yo. All of em. Lol.
Do u remember the scream tour 3 songs
I wanna know wtf vlad look like
Jj Evans ikr
I know he’s white that’s all.
He look like a fucking pale ninja turtle 😂😂😭😭😭
Look at his stock market videos
Y'all funny af bro 😂😂😂😣😣😣
I believe Raz B. His testimony against Chris Stokes is 100% believable.
Is that in this interview or elsewhere? Ngl that's what I'm interested in and haven't watched the video
I was a big fan of B2K back in the day and was devastated and shocked when they disbanded the way that they did. As I got older I didn't really keep up with the members closely. However, I do remember when these allegations were brought up the 2nd time around in 2010 and I absolutely believe something happened. Another singer who was with Chris Stokes' camp confirmed he was abused and it tore his life apart. I just wonder how these four men are going to coexist on a tour for who knows how long with this storied and dysfunctional history. I wish them all the best and Chris Stokes can burn in hell. (And ppl can stop asking abuse victims what their sexuality is, it's gross.)
MrsB055 this! All of this!
that's really insensitive of those @$$es that ask that question, how about you mind ya damn business and figure out what your sexuality is!!! It broke my heart when he was having a breakdown basically in public when he finally hit the glass ceiling and began pouring out his truth!! It amazes me how inhuman humans really are. Sometimes there is no plan or right way of doing things you got to let things out. I can't even imagine how this baby boy was doing his greatest work and had a effing monster in the closet. They should be doing time and I can't understand how they out (chris stokes & marques houston) roaming this earth.
The artist who said he was abused was Quindon Tarver
Yes! Especially that last part 😢
Raz said, he doesn’t wanna talk about it and Vlad kept pressing 😑
Just disrespectful
Thats what white folk do
YOu'll never see him press gangsters like that...only r and b and smaller types...
as unpleasant as that is, that is his job!
We love you Razb ND believe you ! You have a story to tell !!
Kareena Oneal d
If he was female it wouldn’t be this hard to get justice
He is a really nice guy. I wish people didn't bully him. We used to text each other back in the day. And he truly is a nice and respectful person!
You should have told him momma say lock da butt.
Ken Kenichi That wasn’t funny, nice try though
@@leiharose7523 your beautiful...hi
I'm not even 10 mins in, SIR HOW MANY SHOUT OUTS U GON DO?! SHOUT OUT TO JESUS THO! 😁
Shout out to A.J.🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊
He gave thanks to God before they started
Right he's deflecting from Vlad asking him those personal question especially about his sexuality trust me 😅😅😅😅
Shout out to A.J 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 hey beautiful😍😍
So sick of the shout outs!
What if all the shout outs he was giving, was him slickly calling out everyone involved in protecting the predator Chris and allowing this to go on
I was thinking that
Good analysis
You smart
Nyaliep Nhial, good observation.
@@MysteryUnfold Yes , it makes since.
I’m here after reading about 38 year old Marques Houston marrying a 19 year old
SeanDavieWay just exposed her being a 15yo run away who lied about her age and was dating him while underage.. go check out the surviving Chris stokes series and let me know what you think sis
Chris Stokes daughter
Shout out to Raz. Explore the world bro. Making moves in China
Damn! Vlad move just like a prosecutor. He got incriminating questions, hyper intrusive, provides photos, audio video. Can't trust that!
Shout out to these glasses protecting my eyes, shout out to this chair I'm sitting in, shout out to these sequins making my vest pop, shout out to the drums in the background, shout out to the white paint on the wall, shout out to the words "shout out".....
Jameka Lane For real! Lol! All them shout outs and I bet none of the people he mentioned would even claim they know him if you weren't able to Google it.
Jameka Lane , Yes indeed. Now that was so darn annoying.
Yes. That shit is annoying!
hahahahahah.......
Jameka Lane lmaooooo
Raz you don't have to apologize...
His excessive shout outs make him sound lonely rather than thankful.
Yeah. I can be his friend.
Respect. I loved this entire interview. I love how he owned up to his decisions.
Neesh Foster 100% 👏👏👏
Only liking this for Raz B
“God conquers all”
“Hearts Golden”
Ppl getting on him for not giving up the tea but just doing this interview was big for him. I commend him for taking baby steps. When he is ready he will talk about it..the truth will come to light. Like he said there are others involved that he has to consider. Some things may be true some not.
I have to show love for Raz. I especially love and respect how he started off by mentioning The Most High and the ONLY one that TRULY matters . Amen. I am ecstatic about seeing B2K on tour again !!! 2019 let's get it !! ^_^
I loved this interview. People need to understand that its not easy to go through what he did regarding the rape allegation , he chose not to talk about it and he even tried to explain why he won't talk about it. Other names are involved, and he's trying to grow from it and to talk about it now will raffle alot of feathers. I understand.
Yes, I really like how he handled the whole interview!
He seemed very chill!
Dark shades hide the soul which we see through the eyes....he has a lot to tell
I'm really concerned about how jittery he is 🤔
Deena Russell He’s probably nervous. He hasn’t been interviewed in years.
I think he is anxious just coming back to the country and knowing how scandalous his interviews use to be and how people received his message. So he is not sure how people are going to take this one.
He’s nervous. I feel I’d be the same way! It’s his first interview for a long time & he’s talking about his experience growing up being B2K. It’s hard to do
He’s taking meds for his mental conditions
@@NikkiM2005 exactly
You can tell that something happened. But like last time he don’t want to talk about it until the other members agree to talk about it. I feel like he’s trying to protect the rest of the members reputation. It’s sad because I believe to truly get over something like that you have to talk about it. I love B2K and I really hope Chris stokes has nothing to do with this tour. I’ll definitely be there screaming to the top of my lungs and singing every song.
Raz might be bisexual!
He did an interview about it already.
Vlad be getting checked and still don't care, continued asking questions.
Officer Vlad👮
That's why he have people like kanye & Azelia banks when they say No it's a no or athe interview is over
Lol raz b love giving shout outs. Almost forgot to give his mom a shout out!
I cant wait for the b2k biopic
great interview when raz b is ready he will tell the world his story, and i will listen
This man not lying. I have worked with victims of abuse. I feel bad for him but he not broken just living with painful memories. God Bless you B
I like how RazB took a bit of control of the interview before the messiness began. His behavior was a lil off but that's cool he could be nervous. You can tell something happen to him whether it was before or after the group. For him to verbalize he say with himself and questioned his sexuality, and came to terms with it says a lot. If nothing actually didn't happen I don't think a heterosexual man would question himself if there was no history for him to do so. However I hope he has genuine, loving people around him. My heart goes out to him and others struggling with unspeakable abuse.
Yep. When you're violated sexually by a person of the same sex and you're young and was preyed on, you're gonna grow up to question your sexuality. It's a given.
He's actually really great at interviews! I watched this from start to finish!
Can tell he's got alot of emotional trauma after what he's been through. He's very damaged, can really feel that energy from him. I hate that Chris Stokes did this to him. I'm so glad he's getting counselling and therapy. Bless him, he's a beautiful soul.
Raz B seems too not forthcoming unlike the first time he exposed the his story. He must be under a gag order. There's a possibility the group is getting back he desperately needs the money.
Raz B is inspiration. His life is an example to show that no matter what storms you've been through God will always be there by your side and blessings are ahead of your path so never give up on God or life. Thanks @djVlad and Raz B 😇❤
I thought it was really disrespectful for Vlad to ask him would Chris Stokes be involved in the reuion 😒
If he shout one more person out
right 😩
Nyesha Brooks lol ikr 😂
He’s being shady
lmao
i just knew i wasnt the only one thinking that
He got that dad that’s still tryna be “hip” vibe lol
I love you Raz B! You are so strong, and unfortunately I was to young to even remember or know that all of this went on. I’m praying that he receives the justice that he deserves one day. & if we have to reach out to powerful figures to help with this I know I will! It only took one person to start looking into R Kelly again. & the rest was history.
This interview is so problematic. Shaming a young boy for being molested and asking about his sexuality?? What difference does it make if he’s gay or not smdh.
I believe Raz B without a doubt. Based on what he said, a lot of things make sooooo much more sense when it comes to Chris Stokes and Marques Houston.
S. Jay you can tell they were all hunching on one another. Their Aura was neon all day long......
yep and Stokes was on tape saying i don't do things like that no more, and Quindon Tarver a young singer they signed is on tape describing an exact same rape/seduction/manipulation that he went through with the exact same people from Stokes' Camp in the exact same bedroom.
I love this man and you can tell he's hurt bless his heart!
This why men have a hard time coming forward. Why you questioning his sexuality. Wtf does that have to do. Why y'all treating him like he wrong for speakinh out. This shit is real and it happens more often than none. And we can't properly heal our bothers and sisters til we stop judging people and just listen.
Lezley Baty Thank You!!!
I like him so much more after this interview. He's so humble and pleasant.
So sad n sorry he went through what he went through. his experience should be taken seriously n the child molesters should be held accountable n dealt with.
He might've slept with lots of men! No wonder B2K's first album was pushed back to 2003. Their 1st album was to be released at the end of 1999 it got pushed back! Why is that?.
Thank you Vlad B2K is going on tour again !!! You the 🐐
Chassy B Vlad has nothing to do with them going on tour again..
Tika L. Umm ma’am I didn’t say he was the reason why the interview was around time they announced the tour! Please stop reaching you be thinking into the comments too much! Be blessed it’s MLK! I will give him his props for bringing Raz to the spotlight to give this platform
Wow.....this bro really is going through some major things. Hopefully he'll be able to get the help & support he needs; I can't imagine him on this upcoming B2K tour with the signs he's showing that would support drug use (tremors, inability to focus, short movements, needing to "check" clothing constantly, etc)
Erika Purcell-Williams Being anxious and nervous leads to the same behaviors...
RazB said he didn't want to talk about this issue and the interviewer plowed right on.
The video should be titled...
RAZ B's Shout outs
39:45 it takes a man to realise his honest mistakes and most importantly apologize. Respect🙌
People are so insensitive to sexual assault especially when it comes to men..
Glad he let the world know Bow wow put them on his tour
Thats True
Some of us still love you, Raz B and will continue to support you. Some of us actually realize that the darkest parts of society and the things they do are done in just that, the dark. No, there should not need to be video or audio evidence of a person or child being wronged, for it to be true. Coming from someone who was also perpetrated against, I am sorry that you weren't believed and were ridiculed. And being asked if you were gay, that was just wrong. A man being abused sexually, doesn't make him gay. It wasn't a choice and I am sorry that people can honestly lower them selves so low, that they would even assume that could be true.
I wish he could really just be honest and tell it all and free himself of the burden. We all know the truth anyways, but to have it verified would be nice after all of these years. The entertainment industry is evil and people need to really keep talking about it and exposing these demons. I feel bad for him because he wants to be past it all so bad, but you can't do that without releasing yourself and telling your truth.
Yo are you dead ass right now? He literally has a ton of videos going into deep detail about what went on with Chris Stokes and behind closed doors. Have you not seen any of those videos he post years ago on youtube?. Damn you need to catch up lol those clips are pretty old too.
He will be killed if he tells the TRUTH. Tommy Motolla is a powerful person.. Ask Mariah
ruclips.net/video/gBKZgpmbLjo/видео.html
Ok he got videos out on RUclips exposing Chris & marques
He has put it out. Multiple times
It’s hard to hide hurt!! ✊🏽🤦🏽♂️ Keep moving forward Raz
With Trump being President, I advise you to at least seek duel citizenship.
I swear I could have played a drinking game with all the times he gave a shot-out!
I live in Shanghai and Raz B is the shit!!!
Latika The Pacific Queen did he pee on that lil boy 🤔
Empressive brought me here
Dang he did some serious PR in this interview. He really tried to clean things up but BRUH he has to understand that if he wants to move FORWARD he has to be able to talk about it and set the record straight. He confused the public and that will forever be his legacy. Even if he addresses it and says this is the last time he will discuss it I would respect that but to just sweep it under the rug...idk it's not gonna make it go away. Just my opinion.
won't let him prob. payed him to cover it up.
Prob threatened him. Got to remember those allegations can put people in jail. Or end their career
Ebony unplugged I didn't read anything you wrote because your too frickin beautiful!!😯 which Makes it kinda hard to read ..... sorry but I'm just a guy who's weakness will ALWAYS be a beautiful woman. God bless you
No he dnt
He has been open about it
I’m sorry for what he was subjected to as a teenager, I 🙏🏽 he is surrounded by a strong support system from here on out.
You want to talk about the gay accusations? No
Ok cool I need these views I’m going to ask you about it anyway
😂😂😂
Reading the comments on here... It's sad that people want the scoop or details on what happened concerning the allegations or shit that Raz-B was obvisously not really trying to get into. None of us has any idea what he or any of the individuals involved were going. Some shit people are doing their best not to relive, yet those on the outside seem to not care about how these guys dealing with their pasts. So what that you all heard different stories. So what that you want what you heard or read verified. It will come to light when it comes. Until then, let them live in peace. Molestation allegations are nothing to fucking boast about and give up information on especially when their are others involved. He did right by leaving that alone in the interview in my opinion.
Googie22 PREAACHCHH
Googie22 facts
I performed at a big show same night as Raz B, in Shanghai, he a good dude
This man is very well spoken. I also was molested by a family member when I was really young. What people don't understand is when a FAMILY member molests you it causes so much confusion because it's ya family member and also technically your abuser. I been there shit is hard. KEEP YA HEAD UP RAZ😘
Wait a minute Chris Stokes is his cousin stream this shit more sad then I thought
I'm waiting for that one interview when someone punches vlad for being disrespectful. He's always trying to force people to talk about irrelevant shit that they have already or trying to move on from smh.
Where is the mouth movement between 32:54 - 33:00? I heard him speak, but his mouth was shut or not moving.
I was confused
That’s insane. And when he did open his mouth to respond he did start to say what the voice said.
I dont understand how you can offend someone by speaking your truth
Despite all the obstacle bro can sing
The best dancer in b2 k. Just seen them in Atlantic City and it was 🔥. Love you raz b😘
Man i remember the scream tours..i went to all of em!! The good ol days!!!
I believe Raz. What the other 3 did wasn't right. They made him look crazy. I'm not sure how this tour is going to work but I wish him well
This dude is Animated 😂
Talkin' like a Gary Coleman interview.
Trady's World af 🤦🏽♀️😣
J LIFE 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Raz B love You! Big respect!!!❤💯
I was young when they came out so i didnt know about any of this. And i love Raz b now
