*Kandi Burruss addressed Bow Wow’s recent criticism of her in an interview with Big Tigger.
She said her absence at the So So Def 2oth anniversary/reunion event shouldn’t been seen as a slight to Jermaine Dupri.
“Me not coming to the reunion has nothing to do with me being disrespectful to Jermaine. I always feel like I will be in debt to him for what he’s done to my career, and I appreciate everything that he’s done… for me,” Kandi told radio host Big Tigger.
The reunion shindig was supposed to include performances by Xscape, but the full posse wasn’t there because Kandi decided to respectfully decline the invitation, pointing to some old beef with a former band mate.
Bow Wow publicly ridiculed the singer for her decision, saying she’s “wack.”
“She act’n like she booked out like she too busy! Better yet don’t come. The ones that’s there are the ones who really got live for JD and the history if the label.[sic]”
Tiny and Tameka also announced they wouldn’t be in attendance, but Bow Wow totally ignored that part.
Besides that, Bow Wow clearly didn’t know all the drama that went down between the ladies over the years.
“I’m just going to be honest and tell you, I don’t feel like all the members of my group, they don’t really have love for me like that,” she said. “Tiny has love for me, but over the years people have told flat-out lies about me in public, dogged me, blamed me for everything that done went wrong in their life. To me, it’s just a situation where I feel like I don’t want to go back to that.”
Kandi didn’t identify who exactly said what, but she addressed one rumor about her having a sexual relationship with Jermaine’s father.
“To this day now, I have to see people try to say that I had sex with Jermaine’s father. She said that just to make me look bad to people. She came back to apologize to me, but she never apologized in public,” said Kandi presumably referring to LaTocha Scott. “It’s not true. It was a flat-out lie. When people do stuff to try to damage you or bring you down to the public, that’s hateful.”
Though she didn’t definitively rule it out, Kandi said she doesn’t think she’ll ever be a part of any Xscape reunion.
“That’s just not something I want to revisit,” she said.
Listen to the full interview:
Kandi Burruss allegedly had a sexual relationship with Jermaine Dupri while signed to So So Def label. Jermaine was Xscape’s producer and boss. After Jermaine Dupri found out that Kandi slept with a close friend of his. Kandi and Jermaine sexual relationship came to a quick end. Jermaine pretty much stop producing music for Xscape in retaliation. Which angered La Tocha, Tamika, and Tiny (Kandi’s band mates) and ultimately led to the group demise (Kandi freaky ways & Tamika wanting to go solo caused the group to break up). Jermaine also accused Kandi of sleeping with his father Michael Mauldin years later. Kandi was rumored to have slept with her band mate boyfriend (one of the Scott sisters). She allegdly had sexapades with Usher, Gerald Levert, one of the twins from Jagged Edge, Ludacris, Rick Ross, Batman of the Green Bay Packers, Pastor Troy, Ryan Cameron,and Bow Wow (the song “Outta My System” was rumored to have been about Kandi), Carlos Emmons and music producer Shakespear.
Kandi is a common hoe that turned ATL housewife.
Dude you sound ridiculous .
According to the oabove post she has slept with everyone (almost) Good grief!!!!!
lol Well damn Muzyk! I have heard rumors about her but I won’t dare say I know them to be fact. However, just based on her sex toy line, her after-dark sex internet show, her interaction with guys as shown on her tv show, etc. what you state is plausible. Honestly, if she was smart, she would try to rebuild the broken bridge with Jermaine Dupri. She is an okay writer (by some people’s standards, not mine) for other people, but she needs help marketing herself as a singer. JD could easily help with that. He’s an egomaniac but as was clear from that SoSoDef anniversay concert, he is very talented and is responsible for A LOT of folks’ success.
The hell with jermaine dupre…he’s a man, let him get a life of his own..that’s what’s wrong with black men…stop hating. on black women.maybe, he too can find a white woman, like the rest of black men
If JD can help Kandi, he should help himself. What was his last hit. Heck, what was the last song he produced that was on a stations regular rotation.
Kandi may have been promiscuous but that is no reason for Lil Bow Wow to speak out of school.
I love khandi she is my favorite one of xscape that I loved. She’s mad cool y’all jus hating on the chick…she’s doin her thing get yo money girl let the haters hate. Not everybody think she’s a whore she was grown and single so if she wanted 2 screw however many dudes she want 2 SO WHAT GO KHANDI TEAM KHANDI 4LIFE!!!!!!
Not as innocent as she tries to portray herself…have seen her being a mess-maker and sh*t stirrer on the Housewives (an oxymoron since she has never been anyone’s wife). Now these allegations of flat out whoring behavior and inability to get along with the other ladies from Xscape leaves more of a questionable case as far as it comes to Miss Don’t Think I’m Not.
Wow! Yall got an actual dosseire of who this singer slept with. LOL! I don’t watch any of these reality shows but hell, she ain’t hurting anybody. If she wants to bed the whole world, what’s the big deal? Men do the same mess and are called ‘players’. A woman does it, she’s a whore or a slut. Well, if she ain’t hiding it, I don’t see who it’s hurting. Xscape was not a bad singing group. Unfortunate that she and the other members cannot see eye to eye.
ya’ll so in her business children please she grown let her be….and didnt janet dump jermaine and did she show up to his lil taxing saving party no..so get a life and bow wow we no why you mad she didnt come help make money for yall since the government digging in that ass…lol grow up
KHANDI IS A FREAK AND I LIKE IT,GET YOUR FREAK ON B4 ITS GONE
When you sleep around with a lot of men you are a slut ass ho bag. She ain’t married because all the men know what a ho she is. You can’t turn a ho into a housewife, which is why she ain’t a housewife. BOOOOOP!!!!!!
I don’t see what one hand, has to do with the other…
How many females has JD slept with? Is he a whore/ho, etc?
She is grown, she chose not to attend, so be it…let it be…
Seriously? To all who claim to know what Kandi did and who she did it with, why is it any of your business? Since some of you want to list who she has supposedly slept with, where is YOUR list? It’s easy to type comments about others especially when you know that you are not going to be able to defend those comments and besides… A LIE DON’T CARE WHO TELLS IT!
100% Correct!!!!!
Team kandi…. for the haters of ex- exape get a life get what kandi got then talk yo ish!!!!! Why now? Just like she said on the last reunion… if i wanna take care of allll y’all mu f***** in here i could. Go kandi!!!!! Keep gettin it. Oh and bow wow PLEASE find another gig!!!!!
