What is Master P attempting to do here? Is he looking for attention? It’s not like he needs it, he already is a very well known guy but why is he dragging this nonsense out with Kobe Bryant and others? He claimed Kobe’s love for Lamar Odom was phony, so Kobe clapped back in a “take the high road” type of way and that should have been it. But nope, Percy is still going, already responding to Kobe’s message.
@IamJoeSports
In case you missed it, Kobe said “When WE feel the need to question the support of others in moments as critical as a life hanging in the balance, then we must question the kind of culture we have created that has led US to such insensitive suspicion”.
That was in response to P saying Kobe going to see Lamar in the hospital was phony. After Kobe replied it must have made P feel a certain way because he came back with a response titled “The Truth Hurts”
MASTER P SAYS THE TRUTH HURTS
Master P speaks truth..he says, “If you’re real with someone, you keep it real through the good and bad times. I understand first hand from dealing with my own brother that was living recklessly, I had to show him tough love but I’d never cut him off because we’re blood. I’m not pointing the
finger at anyone, Lamar’s unfortunate situation is a result of his own decisions and actions. I can relate to D.L. Hugley’s statement on dealing with family members with addictions, it’s draining. I’m not a phony, I can admit that I stopped dealing with Lamar years ago for those same reasons. Even
though I’ve known Lamar for over 15 years, it wasn’t like we were the best of friends. I tried to mentor him and give him advice but he is a grown man and made his own decisions. You can’t help anyone that don’t want any help and I get that, that ‘s life. So that’s why I stopped dealing with Lamar,
it’s not like we’re blood related where I would have to put up with his reckless behavior. I’m sure Lamar has many people in his life such as family members, friends, colleagues, teammates, significant others who have stopped dealing with him but I’m just not afraid to openly admit it, due to his
unfortunate medical situation. I can also admit that me and my family are far from perfect, we have situations we’re dealing with. My prayers are going out to Lamar and his family. I pray that he comes out of this, he may have a rocky past but overall he’s a good brother. And the only reason I’m not
running to the hospital to visit him, I’m not looking for publicity, I don’t need it. Only when I was asked, I stated my opinion on what I knew about this man from the times I was around him. Lamar complained about how everybody turned their backs on him, even his nba buddies. But then people blew
my opinion out of proportion. I understand that Kobe is one of the greatest basketball players in the world and people are going to side with him. I have nothing against Kobe or the Lakers. I have nothing to hide and I’m willing to speak face to face with anybody, with Kobe or Kardashians about the
conversations that Lamar and I have had concerning him trying to get his life back together and getting back into the league. I’m not about entertaining no mess and I’m only speaking on this because I knew this brother. I hope that if ever I was in a similar situation where I couldn’t speak for
myself, that somebody would keep it 100 for me. The truth hurts, even in Hollywood. My condolences to the people that really love him. And I am not trying to question the support of others that are truly grieving, this is a critical, life and death situation. This is only my opinion, it’s just sad
that last month no one had anything positive to say about Lamar.. and that’s what I meant by being phony.
Ironically, P wants to pile on people not having anything nice to say about Lamar a month ago but that is only people in the media for the most part. How does he know what Kobe’s thoughts have been on Odom, or even the thoughts of the Kardashian’s for that matter. Where was he when Lamar needed help? He claims to have been mentoring Odom for years but he clearly didn’t do much to help either. His attention to this story is the only thing that seems phony!
