Mashonda, the wife of rapper/producer Swizz Beatz, recently vented her frustrations on her husbands mistress and friend Alicia Keys all over her Twitter profile. Check out what this chick had to say…
After having a great evening with my son and enjoying some fun twit chat, I decided to sign off and get some work done. However, a few hours later I was advised that I should check @aliciakeys twit page. I’ve never reached out to her on twitter before. I feel our issues are a lot more serious than a website conversation. Not to mention that I’ve reached out to her many times in the beginning of this whole thing, as any wife would do. Unfortunately, I never succeeded in getting a response. The 1st time I meet AK, my husband introduced us to each other at an event. ( I have no choice but to call him my husband, until he is not anymore) In the messages that I sent to her (AK), I made it very clear that on the contrary of what she might be hearing, I am still married to my husband, living with him and just had a child. Its been two years and I still have not received a response. What I do receive, is constant displays of selfishness and disconcern to me and my son.
I was a fan of AK’s last album, we were both signed to J Records and I always checked up on her projects. I sang her songs and admired her for creating Superwoman and Karma, I would never deny her, her talent. I believed in her until I found out she was possibly sleeping with my husband. The affair was denied by both, until it was finally admitted months later.
Already I can hear some of you saying ” why are u blaming her, You cant make someone leave their wife, You cant break something thats broken”. Well, my marriage was not broken, as far as I knew we were celebrating our sons birth and getting ready to celebrate our 5 year wedding anniversary . Call it blind love, whatever. I call it being a devoted wife.. As far as me blaming her and not blaming him, thats false. Me and my husband have worked out our differences. We are in a good place as people and as parents. I accept his choices and I am comfortable enough with myself to move on. I am so very blessed in many ways.
My concern with AK is no longer the fact that she assisted in destroying a family but that she has the audacity to make these selfish comments about love and wanting to be with someone, even after knowing their situation. How is this the same Superwoman that I sang out loud with in my truck? I ask myself sometimes.
If you are reading this Alicia, let me start by saying, you know what you did. You know the role you played and you know how you contributed to the ending of my marriage. You know that I asked you to step back and let me handle my family issues. Issues that you helped to create.
Im not saying everything was perfect all the time but no relationship is perfect. We made a vow to God and I believe you should have respected that, as a woman. I know you owe me or my son nothing but I just wish you would’ve handled things more carefully. I’m not judging you, I put you and the whole situation in the hands of God, the Higher Power. Just know that as a woman, I expected so much more from you. I never had intentions on reaching out to you this way but after reading your twits tonight, and the constant disregard, you left me no choice. I feel that after 1 and a half years of you hiding this affair and acting like it doesnt exist, that now is the time to confront it, since you talk so openly about it now
This is not a publicity stunt, I dont have a record coming out. I just need to close this chapter in my life and that means confronting our issues. There is a small child involved. His dad loves him to death and he wants to spend more time with him but hes afraid because he knows we don’t have a relationship. This is my main concern. My son NEEDS his dad and I NEED to be comfortable with you. For him!
I know many will see my point and many will not be able to look into what’s real because they only want to see Alicia Keys the celebrity, not the human. This is not for the “people”, this is for you. Like I said I was left no choice but to reach out to you this way. By now, Im sure you want to find a balance in this as well.
I read your tweets tonight and I felt they were very insensitive. You have no idea how much pain I was caused because of this affair. Its baffling to me that you don’t understand what I might have gone through with this situation. I dont consider myself a victim anymore, Ive learned alot from this! I just ask you to try and be a bit more realistic and delicate to the situation, at least until my divorce is final. I felt me attending the party would have been a starting point for us, since you shook my hand after I offered it, but I suppose I was wrong.
If its so, that you and my husband are meant to be together, then God bless you both and I hope you never have to deal with what I did. I would not wish it on my worst enemy. If you two being together forever is the case, its more of a reason for us to get along, because I’m not going anywhere. Theres a child to be raised.
To answer your tweet, choose smart over spark. Sparks burn everyone, be smart! Its simple actually, just think of the shoe being on the other foot.
Stay blessed and lets work this thing out with respect and dignity.
What do you think? Swizzy has obviously moved on… Maybe this chick should just LET IT GO?
Swizz Beatz spotted with Alicia Keys dining in St. Tropez.
well damn! I had no idea this was goin on. I’m all late! lol but yeah Alicia as a singer is still my fave but as a person of morals she has dropped from my list (not that it’ll matter to her) I mean their personal lives are just that. personal. but I understand where this chick is coming from but at the same time, she should not have done this on twitter. If Alicia did not respond the first time then obviously she did not have anything to say about it! She should just let it go, these tweets just show that she’s not over Swizzy.
rEAL DeeP N wOW… Alicia whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. u. i agree wit Masonda u coulda waited for it to fuinalize. u Homewrecker… u really dropped a few notches in my book. (not feelin the truth in her music now. wo
i understand what she’s saying and i can see why she wrote the tweet but why swizz beats? idk i guess i’m hatin cuz its not me lol but karma is a bitch and sounds like mashonda isn’t crazy as everyone thinks and every story has 3 sides to it so we’ve heard one waitin on the other
i agree. i love alicia keys and she was supposed to be a diva. i think her and swiss are a great couple, but he is still married and she should have respected that. them sneaking is really hurtful to his wife. they both should have been more considerate and respected each other. im just so surprised at alicia keys cuz she is “alicia keys”. i didnt know she had those kind of intentions.
WHAT GOES AROUND,COMES AROUND, WHAT GOES UP MUST COME DOWN.IF KARMA WAS A MOTHER A.KEY’S WOULD BE THE CHILD!I ALWAY’S KNEW A.KEYS WAS FAKE AND SHE DIKEN,SHE DIKEN.LOL..I LIKE HER MUSIC,BUT I WILL ONLY CONTINUE TO BOOTLEG IT NEVER BOUGHT AN ALBUM FROM HER, THANKS LIME WIRE!LOL. I WILL NOT SUPPORT A HOMEWRECKER! I COMMEND MASHONDA!KEEP YOUR HEAD UP GIRL,HE WAS’NT ALL THAT ANYWAY’S. BUT IF I WERE HER I WOULD’NT HAVE WROTE THIS LETTER, IT SHOW’S THAT SHE NOT OVER HIM, BUT HELL SHE’S BEEN MARRIED TO HIM FOR 5 YEARS, NOT TO MENTION THE YEARS THEY SPENT DATING, AND SHE HAS CHILDREN WITH HIM, SO IT’S EASIER SAID THEN DONE.AS FOR A KEY’S.THIS RELATIONSHIP IS DESTINED TO FAIL, BECOUSE IT WAS BUILD FROM A LIE.HE GONNA DO U THE SAME WAY! ALTHOUGH IT TAKES 2 TO TANGLE BOTH OF THEM IS WRONG! I HATE CHEATING MEN RATHER MARRIED OR NOT, AND TRIFFLING HOME WRECKING SLUT’S LIKE A.KEY’S. SHE LOST ALL MY RESPECT. FORGET THEM MASHONDA GIRL THE CREATOR WILL BLESS U WITH YOUR KING YOUR TRUE SOULMATE.
i agree with you Motek. whats the point of writing such beautiful, inspiring, moving music if you yourself dont believe in a word of it?! alicia as a celebrity looks soo pure and put together but after reading this idk what to say! mashonda had every write to put this on twitter…if putting people on blast gets the job done then so be it! at least she wasnt poppin off at the mouth with cuss words..she went about it as a grown respectful woman who just happens to be hurt. she may or not be over swizz but like she said there’s a child involved.
DAMN whatever happened to people bein together forever like our grandparents and great grandparents???
I don’t think a man , who is happy in his marriage, leaves his wife for a side piece. She may have been blind to issues in their marriage, and men always tell the other woman another story. With that said, if you got a man who cheated on his woman. That’s all you got. A man who cheats on his women.
I found this open letter to be kind of desperate and pathetic. What the hell does she hope to accomplish with this? He’s gone, get PAID, and move on.
This is what’s wrong with america now! Rarely, no one is respecting other people families! There’s NO respect for the Kids involved, and we wonder why they going crazy now a days. I don’t care if Mo isn’t over it! That was their marriage Swizz and Alicia played with! These days you can’t even have a relationship in peace with all these HOES thinking they the shit. I wouldn’t dare get married right now because if a hoe(his azz and she if knew he was married) think they wanna fuk around on me. Trust that will see me on 6 o’clock NEWS. What goes around oh, will come back around. :)
Wow.heavy ish…in my opinion AK is super wrong. I’m sure Swiss wife is truly hurt.any female who’s really gin they sum things would understand why shes goin in on the suituation so hard.but it is a personal issue n there’s a time n place for everything mamas.n its not twitter.lol.as far as AK tht was a fckd up move n she gets no respect.it looks desperate n pathetic.tough situation man.
I respect Mashonda for this later. She may come off desperate to some. But, I think she is just trying to get past the issues so that she can move on. It takes a woman to stand up to the woman that took her man, and accept the fact that she will have to learn to deal with her. She is not being disrespectful at all to Ms. Supawoman. Mashonda, is right in saying that their is a child involved. Alicia should be a little respectful about her tweets and wait til the divorce is finalized. Dang, A.K. Let Mashonda save some face at least.
I’m glad Mashonda handled it the best way she could. I’m also glad she doesn’t see herself as a victim to it, and chooses to move on, cause obviously he’s just not for her. Now I can’t sit up here and say I won’t listen 2 Alicia Key’s music n e more or n e thing like that, however, what she did was pretty damn messed up! Yeah yeah yeah, I know she’s human, but why as a “woman” would you wanna be tha one to help another woman cry at night over an affair? Hope everything works out for the best for everyone, specifically Mashonda and her son tho…
ok…im not taking sides.
guess what if it wasnt AK
it was going to be someone else…and I read AK tweets…it wasnt directed towards Mashonda..
read all the tweets b4 you say stuff
All I gotta say is…DAMN…..you could only type 140 characters in each tweet. That sure was a whole lot of tweeting. LOL & SMH. I wouldn’t have handled it that way, I’ll tell you that much. My business is my business and the world doesn’t need to know about it. SMH again. She’s not the only one dealing with issues like these. I agree with #14, if it wasn’t Alicia, it would have been someone else. That’s life, it’s up to you to do something about it and that wasn’t the best way to handle it. Mashonda, if Swizz loves you, trust he will be back and its up to you to choose whether if you could trust him again. That’s gonna be the hard part. Good luck hun.
Well this is some CRAZYASSSHIT b/c Twitter no matter how the cut went was not the place to air this. I blame all 3 parties b/c a child is involved & should always come first. He’s obviously made his decision, now you have to make some and address them in private from now on.
I don’t think there is anything wrong with what mashonda said. She is grieving the loss of her marriage, and if ak played a part in an affair, then there really isn’t anything she stated here that isn’t true. We in society call mistresses WAY worse on the regular (see maury and Jerry, lol). Mashonda maintained poise and class in this situation, which is more than you can say for the other two parties. what she typed made me feel sad for her though…
man you guys dont understand if he’s movin on with alicia she has to reach out to alicia!!! shes going to be around her child!!! so shes trying to reach out to her and if its not workin theN do it anyway possible because thats her son and if alicia actin like tht i wouldnt b able to let my son go aorund ha simply because she cant come to me like a woman
I love Alicia Keys music, Love Swizz Beats Productions style! But they are both human. Just because people write songs and sing them dont mean they actually follow what they say? Does that mean all Gangster Rap artist’s actually go round killing people? Come on get with it! You have a certain image to help you sell records! Thats the industry! You may feel like you know them personally through their songs but we dont! I wont stop buying her records because of this!
Some people are taking THEIR situation too personal! These are grown people and if Swizz was not happy with his wife, he should of Man’ed up and told her straight! We dont and will never know all the facts to whats gone on so why bother over-analyse?
Good luck for all there futures!
(To me Mashonda is looking for sympathy, look how much times she mentions her child! Twitter is going to cause big problems for some people)
Nobody knows what Swizz was telling Alicia Keys through all this. But, Mashonda is at peace with him and want to go after the other woman. The person that broke their vows was Swizz and he had no conflict doing so. Yeah, they have a child and the best thing is to be civil for that child. But, you got 2 woman going at it , while Swizz is sitting back. Letting him off the hook and going after the other woman makes you look weak
HOW THA HELL YALL GETTIN MAD AT ALICIA KEYS…..FIRST OF ALL SWIZZ BEATS CHEATED ON HIS WIFE!!! THATS WHATS WRONG WITH YOUNG RELATIONSHIP NOW YALL BLAME THA ONE YOUR HUSBAND ARE WIFE CHEATED ON WITH AND NOT TAKEN IT OUT ON YOUR PARTNER……NOW YES ALICIA WAS WRONG ILL ADMIT THAT…
BUT PPL ALWAYS WANNA CHEAT BUT NOT TELL THERE LOVER “LOOK IM NOT HAPPY IM READY TO MOVE ON” “AND START A LIFE WITH SOMEONE ELSE”……SEE NO ONE IS BOLD ENOUGH TO DO THAT……SO PUTTIN ALICIA KEYS ON BLAST AINT IT PUT YOUR NO GOOD ASS HUSBAND ON BLAST ON TWITTER
