Relationship guru/YouTuber Kevin Samuels is no stranger to trending on social media for delivering what many deemed harsh and misogynistic opinions about dating Black women, but Thursday (May 5) the 56-year-old’s name flew to the top of Twitter’s hottest topics due to rumors he had died of cardiac arrest.
While a number of outlets, including ThatGrapeJuice (as reported here), shared the news based on information from sources allegedly close to Samuels, no one from his family came forward to confirm it – until now.
Look inside to see what his mom said about his sudden and shocking death.
Taking to NBC News, Beverly Samuels-Burch – Samuels’ mother – declined to release specific details about what happened to her son but she did confirm he passed away.
She went on to confirm she learned of her son’s death via social media.
“That was a terrible thing for social media to put that out. I didn’t even know. I hadn’t even been notified,” she said in a phone call on Friday (May 6). “All I’m doing is requesting that people pray for us.”
According to the Atlanta Police Department, officers were dispatched to an apartment in the city Thursday morning “regarding a person injured.” First responders arrived quickly, but were unable to revive an unresponsive person later identified as Kevin Samuels.
Reports have it a woman in the apartment, who claims to have spent the night with the YouTube star, told the officers that he had complained about chest pain and that she called 911 after witnessing him fall to the ground.
I dont know whats going on, but he was spitting real knowledge. His delivery was wrong and came off rude but he like most brown skin men noticed things about our woman/men and spoke about it. However, ppl shamed him bcuz society wants brown woman to be h*** instead of real queen housewives like they were before, those other ppl. May he rest in peace.
Yes I agree with rest in peace, but everything else you were saying is a lie
Hows it a lie? Wht did i lie about? You seen his videos, you watched and understood so lets not call it a lie.
Facts and the only few people left to speak them are frowned upon these days. Instead, we have to live in Cloud Cuckoo Land where we lie that fat people are attractive and healthy, broke men can get any woman they like, unattractive women with 1 or more kids deserve a handsome rich man to take them in to pay for and look after their children, men can be women, women can be men, black men don’t kill each other every day and instead are all completely innocent and get killed religiously by the white man for absolutely no reason but the color of their skin, and the list goes on…
What did he say about trannnnys? Only that should concern you dude!
💯
You and most ppl in this world are no position to tell someone what they can or can’t do in the bedroom. You’re the same b|tch who’ll get online and tell someone to suck ur p**** but frown upon someone who want to live an alternative lifestyle.
Girl you are trashy AF in case you haven’t noticed, so don’t sit here and preach morality and not expect someone to pull receipts.
It’s a NEW day and what’s done in the dark is coming to light. That fake religious foundation most has stood behind is coming undone. So stay tuned for more of ur so called self proclaimed leaders to get exposed.
@Shayla
Who sucks my p**** except my man, trick? Just because your gay-man-pretending-to-be-a-woman ass has been exposed 👀 BLOOP!
You PROVE my point. Ppl like you are the reason we see so much LOW standards. Actions speak louder than words. And there is little to no action from these self proclaimed leaders.
@True Tea Shayla is a delusional MAN named Shawn. He wishes he was a woman. 💀💀💀 Remember he left the site for 2 days because of “postpartum depression” 💀💀💀💀💀 What a joke 😭😭😭 Anyone who went through such an ordeal would be HUMBLE not sitting on this blog hating on people better and more successful than him.
So TRUE!
Shayla wanna preach morality w/ the same tongue that speaks filth & malice.
B|tch speak w/ forked tongue yet wanna police someone’s genitalia.
No ma’am!!!
Yes “they” LOVE to hate on Melanated people. They mad cause they Messiah is burnt brass, lol
I’ve heard of him but never bothered to watch his videos. Honestly I’m over all these so called Intellectuals who have nothing to show except for recorded videos.
Most of these guys do not have a true warrior spirit… They have been reduced to petty tit for tat while the the big dawgs are creating their own world…. a world the little man complains about daily.
Until these guys put their energy into something more constructive, they’ll never move forward. Like Will Smith attacking Chris instead of getting his house in order.
At the end of the day…Chris wasn’t the only MAN roasting his family members. So I guess he’ll be slapping more men in the future.
my he rests in peace.
A bad week to be a black male Dating Guru. 💁🏾♂️🤷🏿♂️
