Mourning Kevin Samuels | The Joe Budden Podcast 

As a young black woman Kevin truly helped me accept reality and inspired me to change my mindset on a lot of things. May his soul Rest In Peace 🙏🏾

It’s possible social media has brought out the worst in our society because it gives people power who never learned responsibility…

Kevin Samuels helped me. He told the truth. I prefer harsh truths over polite lies.

The people celebrating his death only proved his point even more … rip Kevin 🙏

"When you want to help people, you tell the truth. When you want to help yourself, you tell them what they want to hear" - Thomas Sowell

To the family and friends of Kevin Samuels. Deepest Condolences and respect. Rest in Peace. Godspeed...

Kevin Samuels wins in the end here because he woke up men and women all over the world....he made the world look in the mirror....the impact was inevitable... We gone miss you Godfather ✊🏽💯

As affected by his passing as I was, I realized one thing, when Kev was alive, he didn't care about any of the mess people said about him. If he didn't care then, I'm sure he definitely doesn't care now, he's in a far better place than we are. This is what happens when the truth hurts. They carry on like this, which shows Kev was telling people the truth, what they needed to hear. May Kevin soul rest peacefully, hopefully he's made peace with God Almighty.

RIP KS.... that interview with Joe & KS was so legendary.... it was an honor to see 2 independent self-made and self-paid black men in media working together and collaborating.... this is a big loss.... KS would've easily reached $100 million within the next few years.... damn.... Kevin was a breath of fresh air.... clean, fresh, suited and booted.... it was great to see a successful black man doing everything independent.... and he never responded to the haters while he was alive... always kept it smooth and classy.... the haters never watched his shows anyway... he has 800+ videos and the haters only seen 30-second clips on social media.... RIP the legend KS.

Kevin ain’t deviate from his plan…he served his purpose. RIP Godfather

Kevin changed my home. I picked up more hours which enabled my wife to quit her job and concentrate on her at home business. I pay all the bills now and her personality has completely changed. I come home to dinner and beer. Kids homework done baths have already been taken. Home is so peaceful now

RIP Kevin Samuels AKA The Godfather..He only wanted people to be realistic about Life.

The response to his death shows the lack of respect for Elders, men and truth tellers in our community.

Kevin started a conversation that needed to be had

Kevin was 53 years old before his death. Media reports are incorrect. He was born March 13 1969

Kevin literally helped me in my darkest times to realize to stop feeling sorry for myself and literally look at the areas I lacked in to know where I went wrong and where I have to improve in order to live the life I want to live. If u get offended by the things he says then it’s probably because your not ready to truly self reflect & are still in denial about the choices you have and are currently still making in your journey. God bless almighty Kevin the god father Samuels, leader of the new world.

5:28 - Kevin didn't deviate from his plan. His message remained the same, he also matched the energy brought to the table, things only got "brash" when the energy of the caller was "brash", disrespectful, etc.

All these people hating on Kevin are "average at best".

I’m so glad to see black men starting to speak and take up for each other!! The hell with he rest! We knew KS was represented for us. It’s time for us to continue to embrace each other as brothers!!! Respect and Support!!!

People celebrating someone’s death is a clear indication of how evil we can be as people.. R.I.P. Kevin Samuels💔🕊

Kevin Samuels will come to be appreciated for his genius and non conformist nature to feminists BS and for pursuing the restoration of the black family. RIP KS, The Godfather 🙏🏾🔥

Really learned so much about myself from his segments smh this was a great loss on the community 💔

Mocking the dead in our community has to end. It’s so beneath us a people.

I'm 25 year old black women. I love Mr. Samuels......he taught me well. These other black women....lord help us

Your interview with Kevin Samuels is my favorite ever I’ve watched it many times it really shows what he was about more than the short clips that people like to talk about online. Thank you for interviewing Kevin also repent cause JESUS is near! John 3:16

KS was like a father figure. His intelligence was obvious and much needed and highly respected from those with an open mind set. RIP

The truth hurts and Kevin Samuels help me throughout my relationship! Weak woman that don't want to listen and grow to be better for a alpha male 🎯 well forever be lost and lonely! These women celebrating his death are broken to the extreme and just proven his point!! 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️

Kevin Samuels said he didn’t mind being the bad guy to change our community. I don’t think it was about money. He said all you have to reach is 7-10% to make change. Those ppl will impact society. You can lose a message in the delivery. But you can also lose a message in listening with your feelings versus listening with your brain.

I Love Kevin Samuels, and I lived in the Gambia, West Africa. The godfather had fans all over globe. He was a great man and a teacher of truth. Rest Godfather and Thank you.

His death exposed how evil many women are in today’s world, in fact, it proved the main point he was making about most women.

As a married woman, my “Godfather” helped me realize that I wasn’t agreeable. I’m glad I got the chance to meet him on his show. I agreed with his point that many women can’t explain their dispositions in relationships or life in general without blaming it on a man, so I didn’t get much time with him as it wasn’t what people wanted to see lol. However, I had hoped to call in again and give him an update…but I was too busy enjoying my husband enjoying the higher level respect I gained for him! I will forever be grateful for him and his no nonsense rhetoric around building and MAINTAINING a marriage. I truly hope he gets to Rest In Peace.

This was a great video. As a KS fan he will be missed. Condolences & Prayers to the Family. 😪🙏

That episode with Kevin is a CLASSIC! R.I.P. to him, he wasn’t around long at all but the impact he made will ALWAYS be remembered, whether you liked him or not.

The way yall danced around saying BLACK WOMEN in this segment was crazy. Definitely need to audition for dancing with the stars. Smh

JESUS was only in ministry for three years and was killed because he told the truth! I’m not comparing them at all but it doesn’t matter how long people know you when you’ve made in impact you’ve made an impact.

You didn’t have to be young to take what Kevin said as our reality. I’m 67-years-old and his knowledge helped me. I started doing the work, exercising (walking), braces, vein treatments on my legs, being cooperative, Lipo bc my stomach was huge. I improved and I met a higher value man that I had not been meeting before. But my guy hadn’t done his work on himself. However I changed and that’s what KS was about. Bridging the gap so Black men and women can meet, date, and fall in love build their communities, to get married and live a healthy happy lifestyle!

Kevin didn't deviate. You can tell son didn't listen to Kevin. Kevin actually became LESS contentious. The slap sounds and hanging up on callers while saluting ended. He gained patience and remained measured before arguments ensued.

🙏🏾thank you joe for this. R.I.P. Kevin Samual. He talked about the evil that we are seeing from people who rejoice in his passing. What he’s done for men will continue to live on and become the driving force for the betterment of men

Rest In Peace Kevin samuels. You were an inspiration and a great role model for what all colored people SHOULD BE LIKE. God must have had a better plan for you. Thank you for holding us accountable and trying to leave a better mark on this world unlike most people. Rip Kevin you deserve it 💐

The TRUTH doesn't care who tells it or how it's said. It's still the TRUTH. Kevin Samuels told the truth and stood on his morals and principles. He was a real man who helped other men recognize their potential. He held women accountable and they hated him for it. WE, the enjoyers of his messages, understand what's happening right now. May his message live on!

What the black community need is a strong dose of the truth, I've never seen a community so scared of the truth when it's staring them right in the face

Wasn't shit wrong with KS delivery! Those women called his show being disrespectful a lot of times and he should've let them have it!

Kevin Samuel's was definitely a goat and wanted the best for black community. You can't kill an idea

Kevin Samuels was respected and loved amongst the Arab-American community that tuned into his show. He spoke the truth and stood firm as a man and men knew he was genuine as he spoke on behalf of most of us. Bless his soul as it enters the gardens of heaven. AMEN

Kevin just wanted to help people. It wasn't always pretty but he always said what was needed to be said.

This social media generation does not value integrity, honor or respect. They mostly consider those virtues to be outdated concepts so they don't give a $h!t about Kevin Samuels's family. All that matters to these folks is that as many people as possible like, share and/or view whatever they post. The ends always justify their despicable means

Kevin Samuels haters are those people who never want to be accountable for ish! Their lack of hustle, diet, lack of values... etc

Kevin Samuels been around..he aint catch heat till he kept it 100 on the one chic and the video went viral. He always had content. Wasnt until he so called "dissed" women then ppl started listening. RIP KS.

People have put "Feelings" over "Being Better"...That should tell you how much we are in trouble in our Community because they refuse to take Accountability

Kevin Samuels didn't deviate from anything that he was principled about as it relates to families and what creating families mean to a productive society. We are better together than we are apart. Kevin never deviated from talking point. Jevin roasted men for 5 years before he ever started the conversation with women and money and success DID NOT change that, period. R.I.P TO THE GODFATHER Kevin Samuels.

Man thank y’all for doing this. Kevin Samuels meant a lot to me as a black man. He taught so many of us brothers that it is ok to be great. It ok to fail. It’s ok to not have all your shit together and still be a work in progress. Thank God he left so much content. I been deep diving Nigga…!!! God bless you gentlemen ❤️

Karma is a feel in word for what you want. It doesn’t mean anything because people who do Foul things live to be 89 years old. Emmit Till’s accuser is still alive. When she dies there won’t be two peeps coming from these people.

I’m a better woman and wife because of Kevin 💔RIP

His goal was the black community from the beginning. He started with the men and proceeded to the women. There's nothing wrong with being confident in your capabilities and accomplishments.

The behavior after his passing was the most disgusting thing I’ve witnessed in my life in regards to the death of someone. They didn’t even have this energy for Bin Laden.

Kevin was 53. Why do people keeping getting his age wrong. It’s almost like they’re doing it on purpose.

RIP to the man and condolences to his mother, daughter, and family.

He killed it on Atlanta. We live in a world where fake is becoming the new real

Man this was great!! Kevin Samuels really embodied what it’s like to actually know yourself/value!! May not was the nicest way but his message was always one of becoming better if you really looked at it closely

I will say, you may not have liked his delivery but the brother was talking that real shit. Some people didn't like to hear the truth it hurts. I'm pretty sure he helped more people than he hurt.

Amongst all the gifts of knowledge and wisdom we were so lucky to gain from Kevin, the most important and immeasurable one is the we now know as men we are not crazy and who EXACTLY to avoid at all cost. Thankyou Kevin. No other figure in my life has had such a positive impact on me, you will be deeply missed. Rest in Power King

Exactly he’s only been famous for three years it goes to show you it definetly hit em with something somebody pressed 😂

Respect to joe and the whole pod. One of the first neutral unbiased thoughts on KS.. Respect.

YOU ARE SPEAKING THE TRUTH GENTLEMEN

Kevin Samuels was a champion for Black men and wanted us to truly know our self worth. The black women who despised him wanted men to accept them as they are with no standards.

NOT THA YA’LL WANNA’ TALK ABOUT EVERYTHIN’, BUT KEVIN SAMUEL’Z!!” LOL.. 😩😂😂

Disgusting how ppl treated that man after his passing 🙏🏾

He helped me understand a lot of shit in my life kevin samuels was what we needed. His job was done

The man impacted more people in approx 2 years of social media interactions and commentary than 90% or more of people will in a life time. Gives a helluva a lot of weight to the phrase, “Protect this man at all costs!” R.I.P.

Kevin showed how much of a coward some guys are when it comes down to being vocal in the world

respect to the Men on this show for speaking truth about a Real 1.💖

If nothing else, he got the conversation started. Salute to that Black Man!!!💪🏾

Thank you Joe and to your podcast for doing this.

I didn’t agree with some things he said or probably how he said it but I was disappointed how some folks celebrated his passing. This is our world now, no one respects the dead these days.

My deepest and most sincerest condolences to Kevin Samuels family and friends. Please 🙏🙏🙏 pray for his children, nephews and nieces, please be respectful with your comments,yes he definitely will be missed GOD BLESS EVERYONE

The only reason ppl do that evil ish like that when ppl pass is because they ain't gotta face up with people and can hide behind the phone and keyboard. Social media is just a disposable alias to these people. If everytime you disrespected somebody they could come to ya house... I bet the internet would have more respect.

" What the French toast" " order 66" " I got a phd" " I dont need a cookbook" So many phrases this man made popular and famous! I'll miss you sir. R.I.P

I think KS meant well. I have always believed that people had to really care to tell you things they already know you don't want to hear. RIP Mr. Samuels🙏🏽

RIP to The Godfather Kevin Samuels. Thank you for all you did for men and women. A true legend!

I enjoyed your interview with him when he came in earlier but i hope we all take his wisdom and continue this marathon

KS is a Brand a self made man would have liked for him to do a Book.This mans work and message must stay alive # Universal Man # Legend

Let it have been R Kelly…even people who “canceled” him would be all over social media mourning him…Still see BW talking about “Idc I love him etc”…but y’all despise people like Kevin? A man who wants your teen daughter all for himself is a better man than one who just had an opinion 😂 sad world 🤦🏾‍♀️

Read the comments and see how many people he helped including me. RIP the GodFather

It’s sad to say that the slandering of KS in his death is solid proof that he was right all along about us black women. It’s saddening and shameful but y’all proved him right😔 RIP KS

The hateful nature black women have towards anyone who dares to be honest with them gives me no hope. I been thinking about unplugging from social media for a minute now. Social media is starting to have too much influence on how I feel a about real life shit. RIP Kevin Samuels, Ur seed has been planted.

Kevin opened up dialogue on topics that no one wanted to touch. Ty Kevin. Rest In Peace.

I just want to say "Thank You" for doing this show. I appreciate the kind words you have said about Kevin. I won't say I didn't like some of his opinions. I will say probably about 5% of his own personal opinions I simply "did not agree with". With that said, Kevin presented info based on fact. I agreed with 95% of his opinions and 100% of the facts he presented. You cannot dispute facts, data and statistics. And that was what these modern evil troll women hated him for and the simps who pander to them. As far as his delivery... It was DIRECT. and we NEED that. Look at how Monique was attacked by these demons when she called them "sweet babies" and told them she loved them in her softest voice. It doesn't matter WHAT you say or HOW you say it, if you don't kiss their asses, they will hate you. These women think they rule the world and refuse to be told ANYTHING that they don't agree with, even when they KNOW they are wrong. I say, DONT SHOT THE MESSENGER! That was who Kevin was. yes, trying to bridge the gap and end the gender war and restore black families. He was a HERO. I don't care who comes at me. Love always wins in the end and Kevin TRULY loved us all. I hope y'all will watch his content from start to finish. You will see who he truly was. The felames (no that is not a spelling error. they really are LAME), who hate Kevin were forced to look in the mirror and hate what they saw. He was telling the truth and they spewed their venom at him because they really hate themselves and realize they are failures. They hate the truth, that they will die alone if they do not change their evil difficult ways. Kevin didn't tell them nothing that wasn't true. I AM a baby momma, I am fat, I AM a leftover. I am almost 50. I also appreciate my blue-collar brothers. I have a blue-collar man who I love and hope to marry. I go to the gym and work on my overall self. My health (mental, emotional, spiritual, physical and financial) I have been in therapy and working on my personality and try to keep my attitude in check. I WANT to be fit, feminine, friendly, cooperative and submissive to my man! I learned all that from Kevin. He was only telling us what men actually want. He was basically giving us the answers to the test so we can pass successfully and live happy and not alone. He also said his mother got married at 50. So there is still hope for the women who WANT to change for the better. All he wanted is for everyone to take accountability for their actions and respect each other. And when he said to exercise and eat right, where is the downside to losing weight, lowering your A1c, lowering your blood pressure and risk of heart attack and stroke, being able to bend over and tie your shoes without getting winded, feeling more energetic, and feeling better about yourself? I am becoming a better woman thanks to Kevin and may my hero rest in complete peace! I love him and everything he stood for. Yes... all this coming from a BLACK WOMAN and enormous Kevin Samuels Supporter! Thank You!

Thank you guys for this segment! Joe you did again with great content !

God Bless You All! Joe Budden and your staff.

Whether you agreed with all, some, or none of what he said, the fact is he helped to provide clarity on some deep dysfunction in life and ironically in death too

Kevin is on the new Episode of Atlanta!! Blessing us with new content from the grave!! 👏🏾👏🏾💪🏾💯

the women are laughing at his death are the bitter ones the ones kevin spoke about being in the dangerzone, overweight, lonely and miserable. rip godfather, you are forever missed in this thing we call life😢

Kevin gave many of us a mirror to face what needed to be fixed/healed within ourselves. 🕊 💜

Yo Kevin did what God sent him to do. Rest in peace my brother. Much love

@Joe Budden, sometimes I forget why I was a fan of yours in the first place, then you go & handle this in a very mature manner, with a no BS approach.... Much love & respect

Kevin Samuels is a Legend

Thank you all for for this. I salute yall for telling the truth.

It's disgusting that ppl even happy that he d!3d... This the same women that go on the show for his advice though which are ironically the same women who made him famous. Say what you want but he was dropping jewels

Joe B had the best Kevin Samuels interview ever posted. Kev did a great job winning over and getting understanding.

What Kevin Samuels exposed is that you cannot tell black women what they need to hear, but what they want to hear (a la Derrick Jaxn). Until then, the black community will sadly remain at the bottom.
