    She wasn’t going through his phone for no reason, he should have stated why, she was going through it , it kills me when you break up with someone you see their true colors …smh

    That was interesting, you can really tell that he was speaking on real feelings. You can tell he did care about his wife and both sides obviously have hurt feelings, which is why it was so sad to see it get dragged out in public. Hopefully there will be no petty response from miss M. I always wondered what the situation was about his first son since Mashonda never mentioned him in any of her statements, most people assumed he was hers. I hope she didn’t want to get pregnant to compete with his first son.

    HEY SWIZZ BEAT
    NO CHICK GOES INTO A GUY’S PHONE FOR NO REASON
    THOUGH I BELIEVE MEN AND WOMEN SHOULD HAVE A SOCIAL LFIE OUTSIDE OF YOUR INTIMATE RELATIONSHIP AND BOTH PARTIES SHOULD STILL RESPECT ONE ANOTHER’S PRIVACY
    I DONT THINK A CHICK GOES IN ON A GUY’S PHONE UNLESS HIS SUSPECT AND IF YOU DIDNT DO ANYTHING WRONG WHY YOUR SCARED OR EVEN MAKING A BIG DEAL OUT OF IT, THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE TRUST IS BEING DEDUCTED B/C OF THE OTHER PARTIES CHEATING WAYS,
    MEN THINK CHEATING IS ALL ABOUT S** WITH ANOTHER WOMEN
    WELL WHEN YOU START FLIRTING, TALKING, HANGING OUT WITH OTHER CHICKS
    TALKING BAD ABOUT YOUR GIRL WITH SOME OTHER CHICK
    THAT IS DISRESPECTFUL AND ITS GIVING THIS OTHER CHICK REASON TO MAKE A MOVE ON YOU SINCE YOU ARE SO “MISERABLE”
    WHILE I DO AGREE THAT ALICIA KEYS IS NOT THE SOLE REASON FOR WHY YOU LEFT YOUR WIFE, SHE IS DEFINITELY THE REASON FOR THE DIVORCE
    WHILE YOU STATED THAT YOU AND YOUR WIFE HAVE HAD PROBLEMS FOR 10 YEARS, THEN WHY SHOULD ANOTHER CHICK BE THE REASON FOR THE BREAK UP
    YOU STAYED IN IT FOR 10 YEARS NOW ALL OF SUDDEN YOU REALIZED YOUR MARRIAGE HAD PROBLEMS
    THEY BOTH NEED TO MOVE ON, HE NEEDS TO STOP TALKING ABOUT HIS BABY MAMA AND WIFE, YOU HAD A LIFE WITH HER AND OUT OF RESPECT FOR YOUR CHILDREN LET IT GO, PLAY PART IN YOUR CHILD’S LIFE
    MY THING IS THIS IF A MAN CAN BASH OR DISRESPECT ANOTHER WOMAN HE CAN CERTAINLY DO IT TO YOU
    MY ONLY PROBLEM WITH ALICIA IS THAT SHE COULD OF WAITED FOR THE DIVORCE TO START DATING HIM OR AT LEAST GO OUT IN PUBLIC WITH THE GUY

    Most marriages that have problems like Swizz’s were a mess before the “other woman” sealed her place. But since that “mess” wasn’t cleaned up, like the song says, “they made it easy for the clean up woman!”

  7. I WONDER March 11, 2010

    What the hell is a “DIVOCE?” You mean divorce?

  8. T March 11, 2010

    He disgusts me. He had the blatant audacity to say that Mashonda is not on his level; however, newsflash: HE IS NOT ON ALICIA KEYS’ LEVEL! Hell, Alicia is a multi-platinum singer/songwriter/composer/entertainer and he is…a producer. Ha! Sorry son of a b**** go somewhere and hang that s*** up! Happiness will forever elude you, punk ass b****!

    On another note, he is so fine! Omg! His nose included! Am I the only one??

    I hate it when people talk about other people’s relationships like they know the ins and out of it! NO one knows the details of why they were separated! AND No girl needs an excuse to go through a dudes phones, that’s B*******! They do it because they want and can’t help it. People are giving Swizz s*** because he is trying to move on with his life? Get the f*** outta here! If she had any respect for herself she would have NEVER put their business out there like a 2 yrs throwing a hissy-fit because their not getting their way. He has moved on! So should you! and think about ensuring he is in your child’s life, which I’m sure he wants to be and will be. And peeps need to stop talking s*** like they know them personally and making assumptions KMT

    He should have NEVER did this interview. He’s making it clear that he is more into Alicia then she is him. She isn’t putting it out there. Ol’ swizzy falling head over heels for Alicia. He better hope she don’t find someone else, and do him how he did Mashonda.

    From my understanding, Mashonda found out about He and Alicia, the seperation came after the fact.

    Sorry but swizzy just played himself by this interview. This situation was fading away, he kindly opened up a new can of worms. I hope Mashonda just moves on, life is too short and too beautiful for the drama

    PS. WHY ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT THE OLD SITUATION, WHEN YOU ARE HAPPY IN A NEW RELATIONSHIP? HE SHOULD HAVE JUST BRUSHED THE QUESTION OFF, AND MOVED ON TO ANOTHER SUBJECT…

    GUILTY MUCH?

    Wow … I know we don’t know how is telling the entire truth but I can definitely relate to his situation, although mine had a little twist. I dated a dude years ago whom I meet at 18. We kept in touch for years off and on but nothing more than a kissing/buddy relationship(maybe that’s why it never went further//ahhaaha) but when I thought it wouldn’t go any further I meet and dated a new guy actually got engaged and got pregnant. Let’s just say things changed when I got pregnant and I wasn’t feeling the relationship at all anymore and wanted out. But like some, I considered staying with him for the baby. Just when I thought I was cool and dealing with my soon to be solo status guess who comes back into the picture. So what did I do, went ahead with my plans to dump dude and got back with my original guy, got married and have been for the last 14 years! For years my baby’s farther would call me every name in the book, saying I was with dude all along; probably would have questioned his daughter if she didn’t’ t look like he spit her out LOL.. My point is, he dogged me and wanted to blame everyone else but himself when I finally had enough and moved on . We’re cool now and he finally owns what he did and how he treated me. I even straightened my husband and let him know that that was dead from jump and he in no way influenced that decision. It probably took a little air from his sails.. but oh well .. it is what it is !

    Now would I have left him anyway.. HELL YEAH..He was being a ASS on every level while I was carrying his child.. But yes my husband did have some good timing…and I’m glad he did!
    Just saying you never know!!
