ESSENCE Now's "Slayed or Shade" panel discusses singer/actor Tyrese's recent social media posts about the custody battle over his 10-year-old daughter.
Transcript
00:00Now, our last story is dedicated to all things Tyrese, who has been very vocal about the
00:10custody battle he's currently in with his ex-wife over their 10-year-old daughter.
00:15Now, while his ex-wife claims Tyrese abused both her and their daughter, instead of just
00:18fighting the case in court and being cordial for the sake of their child, Tyrese resorted
00:23to what he knows best, doing the absolute most.
00:26So far, he's flown a banner over his daughter's school that read, Daddy Loves You, checked
00:31himself into the hospital under the name Black Father, warned all Black to a court hearing
00:36because he was, quote, attending a funeral.
00:39And lastly, dedicating Marvin Gaye's hit, Let's Get It On, to his own daughter.
00:44Yep, let's get it on.
00:46Michelle's already saying no, but panelists, are Tyrese's latest shenanigans a slay or a
00:51shade?
00:51All right, let's see what y'all are saying.
00:53Shade, shade, shade.
00:55Okay.
00:56Michelle, I feel like you just want to jump in.
00:58What are we getting on?
00:58Child support?
00:59What is he doing?
01:00Relax.
01:01Perhaps trying to reach you for it.
01:02He needs a Xanax or a glass of Pinot Grigio, a massage?
01:06Like, why is he so extra?
01:07Calm down.
01:08Black father?
01:10Really?
01:11Scotty?
01:12I don't even understand.
01:14You're just...
01:14I can't even understand.
01:15Right?
01:16I don't understand Tyrese, period.
01:18Like, as far as, like, captions go and anything.
01:21But he's just...
01:23Right?
01:23I don't...
01:24I can't even believe...
01:25Why would you...
01:26Why?
01:27Why?
01:27Let's get it on.
01:28He's clearly going through a tough time.
01:29Do you think perhaps this is his way of, like, reaching out to his daughter or...
01:33I mean, the daddy loves you, you know, Banner.
01:35Not bad.
01:36That's terrible.
01:37That's embarrassing.
01:38Daddy loves you.
01:39Is it her birthday?
01:40Yeah.
01:40Sydney, you're like, no.
01:42Is it her birthday?
01:42It's embarrassing.
01:43Tyrese has the ability to do the most and the very least at the same time.
01:48Yes.
01:48And this is one of those situations where it's just, like...
01:51Speak on it, Bob.
01:52Stop.
01:52Yeah.
01:53Doing the most with the very least.
01:55Okay, now let's check in with Kayla, who's clearly part of the Rhythm Nation, to see if
01:59social media has any words for Tyrese.
02:02Many.
02:02Hey, Miss Jackson.
02:03Many words.
02:04All right.
02:04So, some slayed, some shade.
02:06In support of Tyrese, Jeanette Williams says her father will do whatever it takes to show
02:09his love for his daughter.
02:10The love between the father and his children are priceless.
02:13Gwen Holland says, by any means necessary.
02:15As long as there's no physical or sexual abuse, let the man see his daughter.
02:18But some people aren't here for it.
02:20Sheree Gould says he's losing his mind.
02:22Should have checked into a psych ward.
02:24Shelia Coates says he's desperate, sad the kids are dragged through the court system because
02:27the parents are immature.
02:28Poor little girl.
