: MediaTakeOut.com just learned that soul singer Jill Scott is single. You may recall that a couple of months back, Jill announced that she was engaged to her drummer –Jon Roberts. And that the two were expecting their first child together.
Well a few days after the baby came – Jon left.
And what’s the cause of the separation, you ask??? Well according to Jill, Jon might have not have been able to handle her post partum mood swings.
But an insider tells MediaTakeOut.com that there’s a whole lot more to it. Word on the street is that Jon left to be with an ex-girlfriend.
Ouch. Tough break for Jill, but look on the bright side – at least she got an adorable 2 month old son out of it.
GOT AN ADORABLE KID OUT OF IT ??? OK.. BUT THAT SUPPORT SPEAKS VOLUMES TOO!
SHE HAS A PHUCKED UP ATTITUDE AND FOR SOME REASON SHE THINKS ITS OK! I DONT LIKE HER.. I WILL GIVE HER PROPS ON HER MUSIC.. BUT WILL NEVER PURCHASE A DAMN THING THAT SHE SINGS !
BUT AS FAR AS IM CONCERNED ATTITUDE IS 99.9% OF EVERYTHING.. AND HER MANNERISMS TOWARD OTHERS IS ABOUT AS ENJOYABLE AS EATING OFF OF A RUSTY SH!T CAN !
MAYBE SHE WILL RECOGNIZE HOW PHUCKED UP SHE IS AND SEEK THERAPY!
LARD A$$!
And one other thing..boo....Never date the drummer. he's beneath you. Now what' cha gonna do for child support?? His working abilities tie in with your working abilities. smdh
Black women...get it together please! Having babies by losers and gays is getting really really old ..real fast! Stop being desperate!
It's interesting how EVERY single time someone breaks up, the VERY next day, MTO has an "insider" tip with some vague a$$ rumor they make up.
I PROMISE you if Nelly and Ashanti broke up tomorrow, they would have an "exclusive" about the "details" the next day.... oh, but wait, MTO has said that Ashanti and Nelly aren't together anyway. And neither are Bey and Jay, they were contracted to appear at all those games together and make appearances in public - but then they got married.
What happened to that, MTO? Visit my site for some real black on black news.
And one more thing before i go... HE HE
STOP WITH THE FUKKIN NAME TATTOOS ..! STOP WITH THE FUKKIN NAME TATTOOS...!
WHO NEEDS A PERMANENT REMINDER OF A LOSER AZZ [EXPLETIVE] ON YOUR NECK , OR PRIVATE AREA. NOW SHE HAS TO MEET ANOTHER LOSER NAMED "JOHN" TO COINCIDE WITH HER NECK?
BAAAAAWAAAY! HOT MESS !!
That's terrible, he picked the perfect time to decide he wanted to leave. I don't understand these immature men. Knock her up then leave her! Just because she famous doesn't mean she should have to raise the child alone I know she can afford it but that's beside the point and she shouldn't accept that from him!
FIRST OF ALL, NOBODY HERE KNOWS WHAT HAPPENED BETWEEN THEM, BUT I WISH SOMEONE WOULD LOVE JILL. I KNOW THAT THINGS AREN'T ALWAYS WHAT THEY SEEM, AND WHO KNOWS, JILL MAY NOT BE THE CALM, EARTH TONE, ALL SMILES PERSON THAT WE'VE ALL COME TO KNOW AND LOVE. SHE HAS SOME ISSUES WITHIN HERSELF AT TIMES I'M SURE.
SUCKS TO JUST HAVE A SON WITH SOMEONE AND THEN THEY LEAVE 2 SECONDS LATER.
see he's not a good person...if you are not feeling a fraction of someone don't make a baby because now it's like another kid being raised in a broken home...mom over here and dad over there...that ain't cool~ if he wasn't feeling her, he should have taken a break...he seems like a user...he got her pregnant and left which also strengthens the stereotype about all black men.
Gotdayum...can ANYBODY hold a relationship together besides ordinary people? And ordinary relationships have a hard enuff time. Damn, if this shyt is true, you phukked up bruh...real talk.
But on another note...kill that other insignificant bullshyt...if a dude leaves, it doesn't mean he's gay...women will say anything to make themselves feel better.

I truly like to stay in the medium....just in case MTO got their wires crossed---GGR<gotta girl rolling>!!!!
They're pigeon carriers you know....
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Girl I know, it's just pure entertainment.....We never know what's true on here...Most of us are just bored at work and like to converse on it like it's real.....lol I dont think the mto bloggers care if the stories are real anymore.
Whats real is that we need to check the mirror we look at in the morning and stop feeding into sites like this...there is much more important things going on in the world. This is the reason why we as a people are the majority but are viewed as a minority....in the words of Spike Lee ..."WAKE UP"...Black men..be the head and not the tail, Black women love yourself so true love can love you. Seek God and all will be added unto you. side note...I am not better than anyone reading this site..I'm tempted to really put John on blast but I won't, but what would that accomplish,We got to do better
Did he leave for his x-girlfriend or x-boyfriend? Sometimes you have to look at the obvious. These down low brothas are something else. And when you are Jill Scott you can't trust everyone. The lesson to learn ladies, Don't be so lonely that any man will do.(Hello Terry McMillan and Star Jones) OH...QUIT HAVING BABIES WITHOUT BEING MARRIED!!! Jill? I know he is fired right? I would hope that he is not on the next tour drummin' your beats. Don't provide $$ to take back to his xboyfriend or is it xgirlfriend? Whatever. I hate that he did this to such a remarkable woman. WE ALL MAKE MISTAKES!
swtchocolatykizz Flag post @Tika90
Absolutely shear entertainment but admittedly I'm touched by some of their stories...
MTO should be reporting this story: ~North Korea accuses the U.S. of provoking another war and warns it will wipe America off the map.~
Now this is scary^
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That is absolutely scary.... I wish they would leave people alone.....That shook me up a little.
tjtrae1
okay jill scott or queen latifah,lol
Women are put here to test us, gentlemen just take a second to think. Every woman that you have ever been with has tested you on some level. some big and some small. It's a part of their dna. Most cases they will test you to see where they have to draw the line or to see if you will hold your word. IMO, trust is the #1 thing that a woman values most. So honesty is my best advice because as long as you are honest they will have an ultimatum to either accept the situation or leave you alone.
Damn another one bites the dust. Sistas PLEASE DON'T have CHILDREN OUT OF WEDLOCK before getting MARRIED. How HARD is it to stay on top of birth control. Damn. I'm so sick of hearing and seeing black bastard children I don't what to do. 3/4 ths of BLACK CHILDREN ARE BORN out of WEDLOCK! This is a SAD statistic and we got to do better than this. That mess is becomming mad embarassing in our communities. If a man doesn't wife you within a period of ONE YEAR, he don't want you. It's that simple.
@Tika90- Co-sign. He left her pregnant because he's a dog straight up. When are we as women though, going to learn the practice of methodical birth control??? It saddens me to see so many black kids born out of wedlock... Then we wonder why our young men are DL and transgendered?? Well hell, alot of them didn't grow up with a strong, masculine father figure. TOO many of our SONS are being raised by mama, auntie, and grandmama. The insanity has got to stop.
This is what happens when you take that rebound sex too seriously! She jumped into a rebound situation with this guy and got knocked up by someone she didn't really know that well. Just a stupid move!
And ladies you can rip this guy all you want, and it was a crappy move on his part, but it doesn't change the fact that SHE CHOSE HIM! lol Seriously, most of the time when this type of thing happens, most people around the situation could see it coming from a mile away! Stop letting their lust and hormones cloud your logic and common sense!
@Tika90- Maybe not gay. But BOYS who grow up without FATHERS tend to have some form of delinquency issues. They also tend to be more misogynistic because they haven't had that male to guide them properly. ALL the BOYS I knew that grew up with BOTH parents, got married, got degreed and are law-abiding citizens. MOST of the boys I knew that grew up with mama only suffered from some problems. Whether it was confusion about their sexuality, delinquency, or drug issues, these BOYS obviously had difficulties navigating through life as MEN I THINK because they lacked that male role model at home.
FendiFiend Flag post GuessJeans:
I don't think, statistically speaking, that Black children or children born out of wedlock are any more "prone" to being homosexual or transgendered than children from 2 parent families. My personal experience has been that the single parent children have a tendency to strive more and work harder than children from 2 parent families. Homosexuality and sexuality, for most, are not conditional based on who raised them or how they were raised. Homosexuality isn't an epidemic.
I agree. Most of my black gay friends came from 2 parent households.
@FendiFendi- That's not true. Perhaps children are born homosexual regardless of whether they were raised in a two parent or one parent household.. However, BOYS tend to suffer from some issues when they are raised by MAMA alone. I'm not saying ALL boys raised by his single mother will automatically fall victim to crime or drugs, because there are EXCEPTIONS. However, a MAJORITY of boys who are raised without a positive male role model have a greater CHANCE of falling into a life of crime, drugs, misogyny, and gender role confusion.
Amen, Guess Jeans. People fail to understand this very true comment. People fail to understand the tremendous benefit of have a good father in the home.
Also for those saying that if Jill loses weight, she might get lucky. No guarantees. Shall I bring to mind someone we (not me) all love: Halle Berry. Pretty, great figure, ABUSE! She's probably happy now, but she went through her b.s. with men. Looks are no guarantee that you will live happily ever after. Yeah, you might be able to attract more men, but sh*t attracts flies too.
Another thing: Ladies look at a man's character before you start sharing the goods. This madness of having babies out of wedlock is not cute. I don't care if it's a celebrity or not. It's not about the fact that marriage is a guarantee, but if you look up the benefits of marriage (do research) you will see that good marriages make for good communities. That's the truth. Playing house is only that. Why give a man wife benefits if he hasn't put a ring on it?
@FendiFendi- I agree with you. The QUALITY of people who raise a child is important. However, there is a correlation between boys not being raised by men and those boys being exposed to a life of crime, drugs, and misogyny. Boys who grow up with both parents, while not unscath, generally stand a better chance of being raised with the values and understanding of what it means to be a MAN. Furthermore nobody is talking about minorities. I'm speaking in general terms here. Learn how to debate with an objective mindframe. Divorce yourself from emotion and experience. The statistics speaks for
@FendiFendi- Statistics are mathematically correct and is the ONLY UNIVERSAL truth. Is 1 + 1 not 2? There is NO denying that it is 2. The same is said for longitudinal and correlational statistics. While no test is 100% accurate, the fact remains that scientifically speaking, there are FACTORs that MAY contribute to specified RESULT. If 2 parents are alcoholics, the chance of their offspring being susceptible to alcoholism is HIGH.
FendiFiend Flag post The people I know who stole came from families WITH MONEY. The people I know who were drug abusers weren't poor or from the "inner city", they were suburban WHITE kids with MONEY & they abused heavy drugs. The people I know who went to rehab went to rehab at ages 12-16, NOT 30 like celebs today. --------- As someone who went to private school, this is the absolute truth! Those suburban rich kids experiment with HEAVY drugs while young because they have the means and money to support the habit. cont'
As someone who went to private school, this is the absolute truth! Those suburban rich kids experiment with HEAVY drugs while young because they have the means and money to support the habit. cont***** @DonSimmons- While kids with money may EXPERIMENT (key word) with DRUGS, the likelihood of them growing up to become addicts is not likely. Most of those kids get careers, have families, and wind up being productive citizens in society.
@DonSimmons- I know all to well because I grew up in the suburbs, attended private school, and currently live in the suburbs. The kids who were partying and experimenting with drugs only went through a phase. MOST (Not all) but MOST of these rich kids go to university, and led productive and fruitful lives.
@ GuessJeans
That has very little to do with just having two parents and everything to do with having money and resources! When you have someone who can fork over tens of thousands for rehab over and over then of course they make it through and go to college on Daddy's dime.
And don't be fooled, go to any upscale lounge and you see plenty of those "productive and fruitful" people sneaking to the bathroom to do coke. The world is full of well off functioning addicts who don't get looked down on just because they have money!
@FendiFendi- I see you're trying to deflect from the subject we were discussing. Its because you know I'm correct. REAL MEN learn how to be men from positive male role models in their lives. REAL WOMEN learn how to be women from positive female role models in their life. It's just that simple. You're creating this personal attack and went off about this being a thing "against minorites" lol.
After reading Jills interview on Essence . com yesterday I was sadden to read how happy she seemed to be a single mom. She talked like all she wanted out the relationship was the baby. News Flash Jill you have more money than your baby daddy and he might fight you for custody and child support. A lot of that has been going on lately.
JILL SCOTT AND ERYKAH BADU NEED TO START A GROUP CALLED EPIC FAIL BECAUSE FOR ALL THE SONGS THEY SING TELLING YOU HOW A MAN SHOULD TREAT YOU, AND HERE THEY ARE THE BIGGEST ADDITIONS TO THE SINGLE BLACK MOM STATISTIC..SMH! GET IT TOGETHER OR STOP SINGING SONGS ABOUT THINGS YOU HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO CLUE ABOUT..MEN! ALL THAT EARTHY STUFF GOES OUT THE WINDOW WHEN YOUR BEHAVIOR COMES INTO PLAY. TALKING OUT OF BOTH SIDES OF YOUR MOUTH!
@FendiFendi- As I stated earlier, if you weren't so enthralled in your emotion, I SAID to you that the you were correct. The QUALITY of adults raising the child is most important. And if you have seen 5 year olds roll blunts you should have alerted the Child and protective services. I don't know what a 5 year old has to do with what were discussing but if I saw that I would have alerted the authorities ASAP.
WHAT'S UP WITH THE TREND OF MALES LEAVING THE WOMEN CARRYING THEIR CHILD?
I DON'T SEE WHY PPL DON'T PLAN AHEAD. A COUPLE NEEDS TO DECIDE WHETHER THEY'RE READY FOR A CHILD AND LEARN WHAT HAPPENS TO A WOMAN (HORMONES, BODY CHANGES) DURING AND AFTER PREGNANCY.
I DON'T HAVE A CHILD AND I KNOW THIS. SMH I'D BE SOOOO HURT IF MY HUBBY, BF OR PARTNER LEFT ME WHEN I NEED HIM MOST :-( HOW COULD YOU LIVE WITH YOURSELF, UGH
ITS AMAZING TO ME HOW YOU GUYS GIVE CERTAIN WOMEN PASSES ABOUT BEING UN-WED MOTHER. THE WORD FIANCE IS USED SO LOOSELY IN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY AND I FOR ONE DONT CARE ABOUT MARRIAGE. I RESPECT A HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP THAT IS LONG LASTING. LIKE TI AND TINY AND MANY OTHER THAT YALL GIVE HELL. BUT WHY DOES J-HUD AND PUNK GET A PASS THEY AINT MARRIED AND THIS FLY BY NIGHT RELATIONSHIP FOR JILL. YALL WERE CONGRATULATING THEM AND YOUR STILL NICE EVEN THOUGH HE OBVIOUSLY CARED NOTHING FOR HER JUST WANTED SOME SPOTLIGHT. HE LOOKS LIKE A QUEEN, AND I AM PROUDLY ONE SO I KNOW. MAYBE YOU GUYS GIVE THE WRONG
PEOPLE PASSES. I HONESTLY RESPECT ALOT OF COUPLES THAT HAVE BEEN IN THE TRENCHES MARRIED OR NOT. BUT THESE WOMEN GETTING WITH MEDIA WHORES AND GETTING LEFT PISSES ME OFF. ONE GOOD THING IS JILL DIDNT SEEM TO BOTHERED ABOUT HIM LEAVING. BUT EVEN A GAY MAN KNOWS A WOMANS HORMONES ARE GONA GO CRAZY SO IF HE LEFT HE WANTED TOO
The comments on here amaze me. It is never a good thing when women are left holing the bag to care for a child on her own! The image of a man walking away should be avoided at all costs.
It's funny to read the nonchalent statement by mto's editing that "at least she got an adorable 2 month old out of it". sigh... To raise without a strong black man in the home to help rear him? That's the bright side. We can talk all we want, and turn a death ear, but i increasingly see a mood and vibe in black culture that says.."oh well..at least she got this or that".. Throwing morality out the window, wh ile increasing the growing statistics of black single parent homes. Please watch the old cnn Black Study that was done on Growing up Black in America. The reality is overwhelming. The mentality and how we accept these behaviurs needs to change. Marriage first,!
he lookin real fruity to me. lip gloss & a blonde frohawk? yall sure he didnt go back to his ex-boyfriend? this is a crying shame cuz he just reduced her to a common hoodrat by just up & leaving her w/ a baby. this is sad. but just more confirmation that having kids w/o those papers is a dumb move. n*ggaz act real different when they know they actions will empty they pockets.
MTO...um, how did yall still manage to spell John wrong when it's tatted on the back of Jill's ear?!?! How could you miss that?
Anyways, poor Jill, it seems like she can't keep a man just like MANY of us! The majority of these so-called relationships don't last long anyway, eventhough you may intend for them to, but they don't. People aren't meant to just be interested in only 1 person...especially men! I wouldn't take any man seriously these days. It's best to just enjoy each other's company while you can...
Oh man! That sucks for that baby! I love this girl...and that #Ladies Detective Agency! Jill is gonna be alright...and she won't find any problems finding a new man...especially if she continues to film in Africa....they love em plump!
Get that Mandingo African King girl! Her ex looks zesty then a mutha anyway! LOL
I don't think Jill is dumb at all for having a baby out of Wed lock! She just got out of an awful marriage, and the medical doctors told her when she was in her twenties that she will never be able to have children, and recomended that she have a hysterectomy! She did what she felt is right! She is a grown azz woman (37) years old! She can make that choice! Just make sure dude take responsibiliy for this seed, even if she is the primary bread winner!
@TIKA..NOW THAT'S REAL TALK..JUST BECAUSE A MAN IS IN THE HOME, DOESN'T MEAN HE'S THE BEST MAN..THE DEBARGES IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE..THEIR FATHER WAS PRESENT IN THE HOME BUT BEAT THE SHYT OUT OF THE MOTHER AND MOLESTED SOME OF THE KIDS..AND THIS WAS THIRTY SOMETHING YEARS AGO..SOME OF THESE MEN ARE JUST PHUCKED UP..
@ALMASEZ YOU HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD. IF SHE WANTED TO GET MARRIED SHE WOULD BEEN MARRIED. SHE PROBABLY REALIZE SHE'S GETTING OLDER AND WANTED TO GET A CHILD IN BEFORE IT WAS TO LATE. SHE DIDN'T WANTED A MARRIAGE OR A RELATIONSHIP BECAUSE THAT CALLS FOR A WOMAN TO SUBMIT TO THAT MAN. SO HER ATTITUDE BECOMES INTOLERABLE TO POINT WHERE THE GUY LEAVES(SHE HAVE TO FIND SOME WAY TO GET OUT OF THE RELATIONSHIP) BUT IN A WAY, WHERE THE PUBLIC WOULD SYMPATHIES WITH HER AND SHAME WOULD BE PLACE ON THE BLACKMAN AFTER LEAVING HIS CHILD.
@VIVALAKE SHE DIDN'T STAY WITH THE BROTHER SHE MARRIED BECAUSE HE WAS A STAND UP GUY. HE WASN'T GOING FOR THAT ATTITUDE BULLSHIT. SO SHE THOUGHT SHE WOULD GET WITH ANOTHER BROTHER WHO APPEARS TO LOOK SOFT THINKING THAT SHE WAS GOING TO CONTROL HIM (AFTER ALL HE PLAYS DRUMS IN HER BAND). BUT WHAT SHE DIDN'T REALIZE IS THAT BROTHER WASN'T GOING FOR THAT [EXPLETIVE] EITHER.
That n.i.g.g.a.s lips are EXTRA GLOSSY ANYWAY! Jill got played he knew all her personal business from being out on the road with her and knew she was lonely and didn't have a man. So he planned and plotted like people do and got him a RICH BABY MOMMA, but at least she got something she didn't even think she could have out of the deal....... A BEAUTIFUL SON!
Why she got this nicca's name tatted on her and and vice versa? People do dumb ass shyt I tell ya. If this is true, It's sad that he up and left like that but shyt happens. Keep ya head up and keep rolling Jill. You have a baby to look after now. No time for bullshyt. Hope your post partum past over sooner than later.
I LOVE JILL SCOOT BUTTHATS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU MARRY GAYS....AND AT LEAST SHE GOT A 2 MONTH YR OLD BOY OUT OF IT...IS PURE STUPID....YOU STUPID BLACK PEOPLE JUST DNT UNDERSTAND THE EUROPEANS ARE GROOMING YOUR STUPID ASSES TO HAVE NO FATHER FIGURE AROUND AND YOU STUPID WOMEN WHO RHINK JESUS CHRIST IS GONNA SAVE YOU AND YOUR CHILD ALL ALONE WILL BE LOST YUR SUPPOSE TO ESTABLISH A FAMILY...SOCIAL ENGINEERING IS KILLIN YOU PEOPLE
Im sorry but i had to say this...
Most of u people that said she deserved it cause of her attitude....Post Partum Depression is a bitch! You have no control over what you do or say sometimes! I don't know what it is like...but I do have experience with Mental Illness, and with PMDD...since I suffer from it!
Jill's baby daddy is a weak azz man if he couldn't look past this "temporary" situation! He was never committed to begin with! Men...all of u will have to deal with nagging and bitching..since ur women will at some point or another have a period, have a child, or go thru menopau
se! To think that living ur woman, to get another woman so you won't have to deal with this is ridiculous! There are also a thing called pharamones...which other women pass off to each other while they mensturate! You have to as men pull a "Cliff Huxtable" grit ur teeth, bare it...and stand by ur women...especially if they have bared ur children! Damn!
To all the people that are in agreeance with this dude.leaving her, look up and research Post Partum Depression. I guess black men will continue to get weaker and eventually fade away since they don't want to deal with one once of turbulence in a relationship but perhaps would like to turn the other way.I hope this dude realizes what he has done. Remain strong, Jill.

Black men kill me with this crap about women having a "attitude" problem. Maybe you punk behinds should carry a baby for 9 months, then experience the worse pain you have ever experienced in your life giving birth to the kid!!! Try understanding what she is going through and stand by her side. You men come up with some lame excuses for leaving someone. If you can't handle her emotional ups and downs when she is giving birth to a child, how can you handle anything else that a man has to go through in order to be a real man? Pitiful. Selfish that is all I have to say. Grow the #$$&* up!
