Russell Simmons Defends Rihanna


In an eloquent piece entitled, 'Get Off Rihanna's D**k', Russell Simmons explains why Rihanna should be able to f**k who ever she wants without it ending up on a rap record...

Russell writes
There have been a lot of artists recently talking about “good girl gone bad,” Rihanna.
As far as I’m concerned, I don’t see why everyone has their panties up in a bunch. It’s just that she is out there allegedly f**kin’ the rockstars of her dreams and you out there f**kin’ groupies.
You can’t be mad that she was seen walking out of Ashton Kutcher’s house late one night, cause you know if you were seen walking out of Adriana Lima’s house late one night, you would be in the studio the next day rapping about it. I mean, you all got like 50 girls in your videos drooling over you and you dissing Rihanna?
I can’t blame a girl for being independent, having fun and living her life the way she wants to. I am certainly not condoning indiscriminate sex, but don’t get mad cause the girl won’t give it to you anymore.
Remember, I was a manager once and I have seen these types of young men on the road. I was with Run-DMC, the Beastie Boys, LL Cool J, Public Enemy, Whoodini and saw all of the girls after the show line up outside the dressing rooms. I mean, Whoodini even wrote a song about, “I Am A Hoe” and went on to rap, “I rock three different girls after every show.” So, I know how this s**t works. You all got 10 times as many girls as Rihanna has men, and you know that.
I love you guys, and this certainly ain’t a diss, but I gotta keep it real.
