it's because he's black isn't it?
Physical and mental abuse should be condoned by anyone. If it is not reported, it will continue. Self-defense is always ur best remedy and cowards who beat women, are afraid of retaliation--Scream loudly! and get help quickly. They may promise it will never happen again, but quess what? it will.
Tone Loc, I mean Tone has not been talked about in several years.This is all the internet can report about Tone Loc? This is Pathetic with a capital P.T.V.news and internet news is really,really, not interesting.There is no exciting stories to read about nor to talk about.I am surprize that no network have not tried to give Tone a reality show yet.A lot of these so called reality shows should be gone off of t.v. period.This is not major news about Tone Loc.If this have to be on the internet,ya'll should see what Kris Kross is up to these days.MC Hammer, Kool Moe DEE, Tracie Spencier,and all these 80's black celebrities that is not in the news anymore.
No way!! A black dead beat rapper who beats his wife?! Say it isnt so.
i am not suprised about tone loc or look or lock or whatever his name is.nobody should care what this has been ****** does.and the self righteous retards critizing him because he hit some stupid black ***** must get their ***** kicked every day.and he does not deserve a show.we got enough dumb bastards on t.v. black and white,young and old.y`all need to get lives.
It's like the internet is just looking for dirt to dig up and they pick Tone Loc.T.V. has gone down so bad.In The mean time I will keep watching The Jeffersons,Good Times, Archie Bunker,Three's company, I Love Lucy,I do not understand how Hollywood is still going on like this? This does not make no sence at all.Even I think Eddie Murphy has stopped making movies.Yea while ya'll at it look up Arsenio Hall and find out what is new with him,bring back ARSENIO HALL.
Tone Loc has a very smelly bung hole. Rumor has it that once when he was nude, he leaned up against a wall where his buttocks made contact with the wall and as he lumbered away, the paint from the wall actually peeled off at the very spot where his butt hole made contact with it. 6 dozen people that were eyeball witnesses to this event collapsed and died from the shock of seeing this. Actually, the only reason I came up with this brilliant little ditty is the fact that I caught a whiff of my own stink hole and near passed out from the odor. And as a side note, thanks to the above Dr. Sot for reminding all of us that spousal abuse should be condoned by everyone. So what I think Dr. Sot would also advise is that we should all run out to our local pharmacies and stock up on band aids, aspirin, sutures, and other items associated with the treatment of contusions, bruises and lumps that we should all be receiving soon thanks to the wonderfully educated Dr. Sof's waxing poetic on spousal abuse.
Tone Loc has a rockin voice love him sorry to see he is having trouble in his life. More sorry to see people running him down. It is alleged DV innocent until proven guilty people!
Lisa....you make your own trouble in life...it doesn't come looking for you.
He also played in "Ford Fairlane"
