R&B singer Tyrese as recently kicked out of a radio station in Delaware, though it’s not entirely clear why.
According to the singer, reports TMZ, he was kicked off after making a passionate statement about how liquor stores should not be allowed near schools, after seeing one on the way to the station.
“Get them cats out of here … selling alcohol right across from your kids school, homie — put the pressure on them homie … you know how to put pressure on dudes selling in your hood,” he said on air.
After the show went to commercial, Tyrese was asked to leave the building.
According to the KISS 101.7’s owner, Tony Quartarone, the singer was kicked off not for his message, but for his tone.
“Tyrese was not kicked off the air for pointing out that liquor stores should not be located near schools … I totally agree with that. But … he proceeded to downgrade my audience by calling them ‘homies.'”
Quartarone says Tyrese’s music is banned until he apologizes, though the singer has told TMZ that he intends not to do so.
I wonder if its because the radio show is sponsored by a whole lot of liquor companies. Still, that just makes the station look bad.
Punk ass radio station. His tone? Seriously?
faggot ass bs
lol for his tone? ‘disrespecting’ the audience by calling them homie? lmao emotional ass stfu
Tony Q is a fake. I remember in the same afternoon he would be the personality on the Gospel station then jump to the Hip-Hop station during drivetime.
Haleujah, Praise Jesus @ 10am and Back dat thang up @ 5pm…. He was probably mad bcuz he has liquor sponsors.

Translation of what the dj said “I don’ want offend my massa that pay ma bills so I’s a gon never let mr tyrese back in ma station”. Fuck the radio and tv.
LMAO!
lol @ masa
LLH.
Fuck tony what ever the fuck his name is… How is Tyrese calling someone a homie downgrading your audience..smh.. Some folks just say homie, and his tone?..that’s some bullshit right there…
So basically some of his sponsers are liquor stores and if he didn’t make an example out of Tyrese he was gonna get in shit….
I don’t know what radio station this is cos I’ve neva heard it but if they’re brotha’s then they’r fuckin uncle Toms and if they’re crackers then they’re just mad cos what he said is true, they don’t want that a brotha pointin that shit out to em, the fuckers
Good for Black Ty. Don’t apologize to that chump.
that’s not racist at all tony, you faggot.
funny story. even funnier comments. “dont disrespect me by calling me homie!” lmao
“homie” is the new “boy”. lol
Ugh- Where did the daygo?
I don’t know when homie became a bad word, but if Tyrese was ranting and ranting and pissed off at the audience, I can understand, but he was looking out for them and this happens? That liquor store must be an advertiser on the station.
@Big Dan how can he rant and be pissed off at the audience, that a stupid statement, i agress withe the nigga being mad, why they always trying to do stupid sh*t where black are,that liquor store being there send the wrong message man, out kids have enough to deal with we dont need people making them think going to the liquor store before and after school is the right thing to do we have enough problem with these rapper, selling all this to our kids in their music
English comprehension! I’m with you What. I said if he was ranting and raving and going off on the audience ok, but he was looking out for them and the owner kicked him out. So obviously, either the owner does not know what Homie means, or he was nervous about pissing off an advertiser.
Wow thats fucked up! He is right.
tbh tyrese is always trying to preach to somebody though
And thats what Hip Hop is about. Just look at Pac. What dont people get? The average citizen/ poor citizen can not have there voice heard thats is why Hip Hop was created in the first place. If you want them to take our only voice away you are a dumb ass.
but pac didnt preach on a pedestal. tyrese always on some ego shit. promoting polygamy and cheating or some other silly shit lol.
Since when is Tyrese Hip-Hop?
He has a song as Black Ty feat. Krayzie Bone so… now ya know.
That’s so flaw! I do think homie is in everyone vocab! SMH!
Thats Y things will never change n Black communities. Somebody needed 2 say it. Bravo Ty!
For saying homie?. Fuck apologising to those salty faggots. What is it some special radio station for the White House? The lameness of some people is mind boggling…
Delaware has radio stations?good to know…lmao
That makes sense. Delaware’s so white, if you even say “Word”, they shit their pants as if the Black Panthers are coming.
Wtf was dude doing in Delaware anyway?
old news this was on the web the other day
Tony Quartarone…waaaaaahhh
… what’s a delaware?
Motherfuck KISS 101.7’s owner Tony Quartarone. Spineless bitch. Big up to Black Ty. Good example HOMIE.
See this is the problem i always have being a black man, why the F**k, you kick a nigga off the air for speaking the true, EXPLAIN!, i just found even more respect for Tyrese man, it the true what he just said cause everybody knows if it a white community, i wouldnt have been there, F**k Tony Quartarone, F**k KISS 101.7’s and nice trying to down play it by saying it’s because he use the word homies foggot when did the word homies became a bad thing, tell the true aslong as they feel they can posion our kids the next generation, and let then kill themself it ok, bet you if he had said they need more liquor store near the school in black community, they would have play his sound all day everyday.
fuck aplogizin to a dumby who has his head in his ass homie is now a bad word every one lmao. keep your head right were its at ty.
the owner of the store across the street form the school he was refferein to called Tony Q and said…”take da mic from dat coonboy NOW! becuz your financial support from us is almost gone…!
The station probably got mad cause they assumed he was referring to African Americans, and Quartatone’s son probably buys beer from that store all the time. Can’t have some rich motherfucker lecturing on the ills of drinking before first period Social Studies.
Man this Sh8t doesnt make any sense,i bet you any money if he had said, i just can from haning with my niggas, drinking, smoking weeb and messing around with a few hoes, he wouldnt have got kick off or banned and his songs would have be playing all day every day, man i wouldnt apologizes, he is right on this one and hope he goes on to say F**k KISS 101.7’s and Tony Quartarone
Tyrese don’t care he ain’t making new music as far as I know, he’s out there doing movies. We would understand if he curse during his rant then yea, but because he call the listeners homies, nah man your wrong for that, and he must be getting part of your advistising money from those liquor stores.
