Clifford “T.I.” Harris’ recent appearance on the Ladies Like Us podcast sparked controversy after he revealed he accompanies his 18-year-old daughter Deyjah to the gynecologist to “check her hymen.”
As a result, the women who conduct the podcast — Nazanin Mandi and Nadia Moham — have taken the episode down and issued an apology for not properly handling the situation.
“To everyone confused, angry and hurt by the recent episode of Ladies Like Us, we want to start off by saying that we sincerely apologize for our knee jerk reaction to the uncomfortable topic,” an Instagram post reads. “We were completely caught off guard/shocked and looking back, we should have reacted much differently in the moment.”
Mandi and Moham continued, “The comments that were made and the reaction that followed are not in any way a reflection of our personal views on the topic. We support and love Women and feel that their bodies are theirs to do as they wish. There was absolutely no ill intent towards any party involved & feel deeply awful about the entire incident.
“We are not perfect, take full accountability of our lack of action & are continuously learning along the way. We know an apology doesn’t make this go away but we welcome the discussion – that’s what our podcast is about.”
During Tip’s appearance, he went into detail about their trip to the doctor together.
“So it’s this one time we go, I think this might have been after her 16th birthday,” he explained in audio captured by TMZ. “This is what we do… Usually, like the day after the [birthday] party, she’s enjoying her gifts. I put a sticky note on the door: ‘Gyno. Tomorrow. 9:30.’ So we’ll go and sit down and the doctor will come and talk and the doctor’s maintaining a high level of professionalism.”
Naturally, Tip’s comments drew the ire of social media, prompting Mandi and Moham to do damage control.
Planned Parenthood also weighed in on Twitter in an attempt to educate Tip and anyone else who believes sex is the only way to stretch that part of a woman’s anatomy.
This is some archaic sh*t
Gotta love planned parenthood at the bottom of the article! They claim those agaisnt planned parenthood are racist, yet over 50% of all black babies are aborted, meaning black population would be more than double without them, AND Planned Pate thood founder wanted to euthanize/sterilize black Americans. Fuck that. Completely inhumane
It looks like TIP doesnt need help from a bunch of social media trolls telling him how to raise his daughter! Majority of people commenting on him need to focus on how to get their own life out of shambles! Stop worrying about others and get your life together!
Your life is obviously together…u spend ur time being a groupie for rappers who informed for the federal government
There’s always somebody talking sense in the internet and then it’s ALWAYS followed up by a sensitive internet lifer who takes it personally like the sensitive sissy girl they are, kinda funny though he said to better yourself and focus on yourself instead of everyone else and you cupcakes always prove you are incapable, I feel bad for yo mamma lol
guy literally talks about running trains on women (“Memories back then”), giving girls facials in org**s (“Let’s get away”), calls them sp**m rags and c*m dumpsters (“Amazing”), cheats on his wife, and does this… also, what kind of gyno would actually do this? big tip fan, but this is ignorant beyond measure. it’s the same kind of thinking you see from some religious nut with a harem of wives that stones young girls to death for having sex before getting married.
Tip been fell off since Nov 8, 2016
Nas summed this up in “Daughters”
if your daughter going to be going out every night with all the peer pressure to do drugs and sex and so on, hopefully she knows better. when I was sixteen I was obsessed with pornography as a high school dropout and I would run away from home it was a tough life I had no friends all you would see on the television is the war on terrorism. my mother would be at home here do you know how it must feel to give in to the persistent question of running away from home. to let a sixteen year old hitch out of town and try and leave the country by associating with god knows who? street gangs related to the mob and even the government were making our lives hell I just wanted to leave. buy your daughter a pink lambo.
Someone else pandering to these SJW, twitter finger heroes.
One day TI’s daughter will be taking BWC in all 3 holes LOL the rebellion is coming
