Denise Matthews' Apt. Tour, the 4th Element

  • I had not heard the news...
    Yesterday morning I was working on this, rushing to finish and get it uploaded to help support many pending (once private) issues regarding Denise's expressed wishes and Will. Rushed, with many more things to accomplish that day, I was even ignoring phone calls until I was finished, it was published and I emailed a link to one person.
    When I heard the news I was in shock, I vaguely remember what I did. I do remember thinking and resetting this video from public to private, thinking no one else could view it, but I accomplished little to nothing else.
    Well, apparently it still can be viewed and I'm at odds with either leaving it up or taking it down, resetting it back to public or simply letting it be found.
    This is just a message to a few people, but one in particular.
    It is also few clips to prove to someone that I had Denise's trust. To prove that my interest and intent have never been self-serving, that I've turned down most everything (Including being the executor, which Denise fully understood, stating that she knew someone that understood these matters if I did not want to do it).
    And that when I did except something it was usually because she was getting rid of it and that I was usually excepting it for someone else.
    Denise has trusted me and has entrusted me with more then you will know and I have never attempted to profit or self-promote.
    I now regret not accepting to be her personal representative, because of the resulting chaos now and that is yet to come.
    Tobyn

    Such a sweet woman. She managed to do something other glamour queens couldn't. She fought her image, fame, addiction and she won!
    She lived her final days on her own terms, you gotta admire that.
    Rest well Denise :-)

    For Clarity... I am Tobyn, Denise called and pronounced my name "Toban," and if you can find it among the other names at the beginning of her book that's how she would have spelled.
    I was more than her brother-in-law, more than the father of her 3 nephews, I was brother/friend/bodyguard/nurse/handyman/poet/soundboard/audience/confidant... but to Denise, what she wrote is what I meant to her and what she would often say to me.
    DeBorah and Denise were so much alike, it was like having Denise in stereo, or vise-versa, if you ever sat between them; which, for my sanity, I avoided at all cost.
    At her request I represent and often I speak for DeBorah on many topics and issues, and we are in complete agreement where Denise is concerned.
    We Loved Our Sister and miss her terribly, and right now it just hurts...
    Thank you all very much for your many prayers, your blessings and heartfelt expressions.

      +Deborah Matthews-Brown This still doesn't clarify her will. Why she left everything to the preacher Willie and Roxanne Harper, and nothing to YOU or her own sister? Why not the boys in the video? It all never felt right to me and the video doesn't explain it. ALSO, why did she die in less than a month after SIGNING the will? Why hasn't her flesh and blood or anyone expressed the needed concern? The whole thing smells of crime to me.

      +MahmoudIzGreat That's because there is wickedness that you know not of. But God knows. Don't be fooled by the "Christian Girl" icon that she professed. "For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there is disorder and every evil thing." James 3:16

      Great Grace ......In other words???? Your statements are very open-ended leaving only room to speculate. Of course a person could be a hypocrite but that's with ANYONE, not just Denise Katrina Matthews. PLUS, even if she was fooling people there's still mystery around her passing and leaving EVERYTHING to the church. Plus people have problems both good and bad. Not all good for good people and bad for bad people. What indication is there that she was a bad or a jealous person simply because she had strife in her life???? She could have had ANYTHING she wanted but chose to no longer ACT and accept royalty checks from movies that she starred in. "For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there is disorder and every evil thing."< Soooooooo??

    • @lonerider8961
      @lonerider8961 8 лет назад +4

      MahmoudIzGreat I did my research. They are crooks, all crooks. I live in the area where she attended church. I know of the Pastor and so called Pastor wife. The reason you don't understand the death and why all the mystery is because there is no peace for the wicked. That's why Prince's death is so mysterious. But a true saint of God, when they pass...there is peace and those around are resting assured they are in a good place. There is no mystery there. But with these wicked people, it always ends for them in destruction, and harsh deaths. Mystery and drama and scandal. That's how God ends the life of the wicked, with shame.

    • @MahmoudIzGreat
      @MahmoudIzGreat 8 лет назад +6

      Great Grace You STILL don't understand. There's no mystery around Prince Nelson Roger's death is clear. HE was a holiday sacrifice for the jewish people. He was gunned down on Thursday before Friday's Passover and it was on CNN that he was shot. The claims that he had the Flu and Percocet overdose are disinformation to keep racial tensions low. His sister gets his wealth. All that is pretty well laid out and understandable whether it's good or not. However, Denise' situation is very foggy. She allowed her family to believe that they'll get things whereas she left them nothing at all. I understand her differences with her abusive family but why lead them on?? I don't think she was wrong in leaving her family nothing as they apparently rushed to the scene just for the inheritance. But there are SO MANY questions about her departure. All you did was call the woman evil whereas she was overtime working for people in need of spiritual guidance. She was definitely hurting for cash so there was no cash reward in her church workings. You simply have something personal against her.

When you truly come to the Lord your like a kid wirh a nee toy you want to show it off to everyone. Dez Dickerson guitar player for prince band saved, " Big Chick" his body guard Saved, Denise Mathews Saved, Afeni Shakur Tupac Momma saved! Prince was a Jehovah's witness they dont believe in salvation , grace,and Jesus Diety. They believe in works n being only " org" religion going to heaven and they not even sure they going they think their the 144,000 they cant be they're not Jewish from 12 tribes.

Denise said she tried to talk to him but he wouldnt listen she was evangelizing then. Those that have the son have life, those that dont have the son dont have life. Everlasting life! Either your born into a family or your not . "You must be born again to enter the kingdom." Read the bible n see for your self. These are all biblical foundation for salvation repent n be born again for the remission of your sins plain n simple. Not a personal belief but a biblical belief. Nobody gets to heaven because of they good works. If that was true politicians,religious figures, just nice people would go. You get there because you give your life over too the Lord he's not going to force you we all have free will. Prince n "Vanity" Denise was into some dark stuff. She talks about it even Mayte was sayin weird stuff like they would just sit there n stare at each other hyponotizing one another. Last time i heard of that was spirit cooking Jay-Z did it with this performance artist that was a i believe Armenian Witch. It was o. RUclips at a gallery 4hours i believe. Smh Do the research. Only thing we can do is look at the evidence he was a Jehovas witness for sure. If you have the wrong belief n theology you will be fooled n you will go to that other place. Bible calls it , "doctrines of demons " Thats in every culture around the world" Thats why you should always pray for truth. Who is the truth? John 14:6 says "I Am the way, the truth, and the life." Jesus Tupac Momma accepted Christ n talked about it on youtube she was soeaking at entrepreneur al conference!!! She was into a lot of Ancestoral/ newage belief then n found Jesus after all them years!!!

      They are not in the same place she accepted Christ he didn't she tried to talk to him in late 90s early 2000s he didnt want to hear it. He was a Jehovah's witness. They were soul ties though because they were both back in the day into Occult activities. There is a video series on Prince n Vanity i think its called soul mates. But it explains the things they were into back then and the spirits that would torment them. Denise talked a lot about that. Dez Dickerson guitar player in "Revolution" and body guard "Big Chick" became Christians too back in 80s

    As a teenager in the 80s, Vanity was my all-time favorite entertainer. When I first heard "Nasty Girl," I was a 16 year old kid who was coming out as gay at a time when that was still pretty rare, and also a white kid who loved to hang out and dance with some of the amazing young black women at the still-segregated high school in my hometown. Music and dance were the bridge that connected me to my girlfriends in a deeply racially divided city. As someone who was different no matter whom I was with, I found Vanity's music and stage presence empowering. It helped me feel strong and confident in who I was. I had every one of her albums, and watched every interview on TV I could find. I've been reminiscing about her over the past week, and am blown away by how much more information about her life is available now than it was then. It makes me incredibly sad that an entertainer who brought me so much joy and strength was in such a state of suffering during that period of her life. I can imagine her history of addiction made her legacy complicated for the friends and family that knew and loved her. While I now understand that Ms. Matthews disavowed the name Vanity and all her stage work, I hope her family can take comfort in knowing that whatever else she did, she made one North Carolina boy's teenage years indescribably better than they might have been.

    From my perspective, leaving this video set to *public* and knowing how many more fans of your sister will eventually find this clip, we all will draw the same conclusion. The video clearly shows her agreeing to giving certain items of her estate to those mentioned in the video.
    And if I am understanding the video description correctly. If the executor of Denise's Will is trying to dispute certain items of Denise's estate to be handed over to those she wanted those mentioned in the video to have, then that executor is clearly looking out for their very own self interest and not truly fulfilling Denise's wishes.
    So sorry you're dealing with this chaos. Sending you love, light and strength.

    I had the pleasure of speaking with her on a Christian Radio show, Omegaman Radio on blog talk back in 2013. Denise prayed for me and was so full of life she had so much Joy like no other something I long to have. I am so sad she died then Prince. There are so many people saying Prince was killed and I even heard Denise was killed. I don't get why the industry would want to kill Denise since she left that business many years ago but I do think Prince may have been killed due to him fighting the record company, they are slick and wait many years as to throw people off where no one would suspect they had anything to do with it. I do believe Denise made it to heaven as she truly had the love of God in her soul. I would love to see more videos of Denise. Thanks for sharing this

      +Margery Hannah Even though two people can go their separate ways, a woman knows out of many who her heart calls for. You can be with ten or thousands of people, but you know whom your heart calls out for. Drugs and infidelity played a big role in their relationship coming to an end. In her book and in interviews she said Prince was the only man she truly loved. He even called her the female version of himself. That is a clear indication that these two were soul mate but we all know Prince was ready to settle down( soil royal oaths ). A interview she did while back she mentioned how she wants God to reconnect her and Prince. Even if not through life, but in death they're reconnected with no pain or obstacle to get in the way of their love.
