THis makes for interesting and sad stuff...Heres a post from some other forum from a guy who claims to have worked for chris stokes
Sweexy I have been getting PM's as to what I know about Marques Houston and Chris Stokes and TUG.I was on another board and Chris and Marques homosexual relationship came up. Thet have been involved for many years. And here is my response to those loyal fans who do not believe..... Being around TUG was like being in Sodom and Gommorah. They used the worst tactics on those kids. Brainwashing, threats, sexual and physical abuse. Hell, I was there when Taz socked the s#^& out of Kelton (from immature) just because he didn't hear the command she was giving him and he was 12 at the time. I remember Chris threatening to ruin your career if you didn't do what he wanted. All of the artists that would not put out for him or Taz they got rid of. That's why they didn't have any adult artists. I witnessed all that I needed to for several years, from the time Chris lived with Marques at his house in the Crenshaw area, to the house he shared with his momma in Northridge, to Chris' house in Sherman Oaks, to the condo he shared with Taz in Studio City, to that house he had on Colfax. I remember when he discovered Quindon from Texas. Quindon was sweet, and innocent, and he dressed like a country cabbage patch doll, with a big afro, and he loved to flirt with girls ( it was cute).
After Chris got through with him he was a slick little pervert. Real aggresive with females (and he was barely a preteen). I later found out that he acted out like that to prove to himself that he wasn't gay. It's like once the artists got turned out Chris and crew would use that as blackmail for the artist to stay "down". I know for those who don't know this seems crazy. How could they get away with turning these innocent kids out. Chris is a master manipulator, Taz is a master intimidator, and money will make N***@$ turn and look the other way. When I was around them it always seemed whenever I came around I had just missed something. S&^% was always being done on the low. I could never put my finger on it.I never wanted to think bad about them so I always thought I was trippin. Or if you spoke on something Chris would turn everything around on you and say things in such a way it would make you say how could I ever think anything wrong about him. Well fellow board members I was BAMBOOZLED!!!!!
I am so f%^%#@ mad at this . I tried to put these memories and them punka$$ b&^&*&$ out of my memory. It's like the more I type the more I'm remembering (sp). I am going to tell all you TUG fans ya'll buying into a fantasy. Them ni%%@$ AIN'T RIGHT. I have been on tour with them and heard all of them talk *!@$%&**!@$%&**!@$%&**!@$%&* about the fans. Chris use to pull fat girls onstage as a joke for immature or B2K to sing to and everybody backstage would be laughing and making fun. Or when would fans ask for a pic/autograph, the guys ( IMX AND B2K with Chris) would be clowning the fans who were less desirable to them. I was there when Beyonce came to Chris and Marques house to kick it with Marques and he preferred to kick it with Chris in Chris' bedroom. And B sittin there with LeToya(DC) and Jerome (from IMX) wondering why he won't spend time with her. I remember the times Chris and his sister Smooth would get drunk on tour and start making sexual advances to the same sexes. Chris use to get immature drunk and high. Smooth use to f#$^ the female dancers. Smooth is a freak. My home boy got her on tape drunk 69'n this girl at a party. She also on tape in a threesome with a girl and R. Kelly (this was around the time he did "You Remind Me"). Chris tried to turn out Monteco (he was signed to MCA at 14 was suppose to be the next Bobby Brown) but when he couldn't get him sexually, he turned him onto drugs.
That little boy turned out to be a crackhead (I know this cause I saw him in New Orleans asking for money for some crack). This was after Chris got Monteco's recording and marketing budgets used them/him up and then dumped him.Chris has a knack for signing artists to deals, and taking the budgets(monies) and spending it on himself and his family.That's why you only see a single and one video from most of his acts. I remember the group Gyrl. Taz turned out one of the girls and Marques got another one of them (the lead singer) pregnant. She had the baby by the way. Now I wrote all this to say, those people are so far from perfect that it don't make no sense. The problem is when they percieve themselves to be so perfect and the fans take it further by believing that they are. Those who are in the industry are privy to certain info. You would not believe how many celebrities are gay but they pretend not to be just to keep fans and get the fans money. You would not believe how many pervs there are. R Kelly is just the tip of the iceberg. Why ya'll think he hasn't gone to trial yet. I could tell ya'll some s### for real. You would not believe how many schizos are in the industry. Houston is just the tip of the iceberg.
Yall would not believe how many celebrities are out there with drug and sex sicknesses. And I am not even going start on how many of them have diseases. The industry is a big a$$ disease and all them miserable muthaf#@$&$ in the industry thrive off of giving all the new people that come in the industry the same sick s&*% that they have.Sorry it was so long. Anybody wanna hit me on my PM holla.
