As the entertaining world spins with juicy stories, the latest nugget has K. Michelle, country artist and outspoken celeb, sitting down with former NFL star Cam Newton for a very candid, straight-shooting conversation on his Funky Friday podcast. Courtesy of Emma McIntyre and Tibrina Hobson, this is one conversation that could ruffle some feathers.
Known for his flamboyant style on and off the field, Newton is no stranger to controversy, particularly in regards to his record of fathering children with multiple women. Michelle, not one to shy away from calling it like she sees it, tackled this touchy subject head-on.
Newton, acknowledging his critics’ assertions about ‘creating broken homes’, admitted, “There’s a guilt that happens when you hear that, it’s like I can’t do nothing about that now. But what I can do is try to make my wrongs right.”
Showcasing the wisdom behind her sassy vibe, K. Michelle probed deeper, asking Newton about his plans with his pregnant partner, Jasmin Brown, focusing on the hope of breaking the cycle of fathering children out of wedlock.
Interestingly, what followed was a comparison between the respect for marriage in the world of country music versus Black music, especially in the hip-hop genre. Michelle pointed out the pervasive trend of glorifying multiple affairs and disrespecting women in the Black music space, a stark contrast to the more traditional and respectful values promoted in country music.
And music beefs? Oh, they didn’t miss that train. Michelle opened up, without a filter, about her infamous feud with fellow artist Tamar Braxton. Making her stand clear, she said, “I hate the b-tch…the muppet. I’m to the point where I’ma slap the f*ck out of her on sight.”
In their engaging tussle, Newton’s awe-inspiring nature did prompt him to remind K. Michelle about the importance of maintaining positive relations among fellow Black women. However, it seems that some beefs are just too deep to bury.
As always, Newton and K. Michelle have given some bold and honest conversations addressing critical issues. This could potentially set a new tone for discussions about personal life choices and their potential impacts on society, especially from Black influencers. The podcast teems with sass, humor, and soul-stirring discussions – a perfect mix for a riveting, eye-opening listening experience.
