"My brother, what are you doing?": Stephen A. Smith perplexed by $10 million worth Jeezy's statement to Nia Long about infidelity
Popular media sports personality Stephen A. Smith gave another hot take on the recent episode of his TV program. The focus of his talk was rapper Jeezy, whose statement on infidelity he had a different opinion to.
Jeezy recently interviewed actress Nia Long. Among the topics they discussed about was the recent breakups they had with their respective partners and how they have been coping with it.
Long was with current Houston Rockets coach Ime Udoka for more than a decade. They went their separate ways in December 2022 following his alleged affair with a female co-worker while coaching the Boston Celtics.
During his conversation with Long, Jeezy, who has a net worth of $10 million, mentioned that for him a “real black man” does not cheat on his partner. Stephen A. Smith, though, disagreed, saying that while what the rapper said was ideal, it was not necessarily true.
He explained that men, being “physical creatures” are attracted to what they see and prone to gravitating towards it. The “First Take” host said:
“My issue is this brother Jeezy, and again, I am a fan my brother, what are you doing? Respectfully bro, I mean did you sit down and have a conversation with Oprah and then tell us. I mean have you went to therapy with three female therapists, and they just turned you …”
“I mean what's up? What's up Jez? Real brothers don't cheat? I'm not gonna use the nword. Real brothers don't cheat? Yeah they do. Yeah man, they do. I mean what the hell's going on here?”
