32. Yeah. He is greiving. Right! He did not believe it was his child, had to have proof and then did not go to her funeral, the last decent thing he could do..........

34. That is what you call a DEAD BEAT DAD!!!! I don't care how much attention you brought to wherever, come on Juvenile that was your own flesh & blood but it seems that you didn't want anything to do with her anyways from other charges. I BET YOUR EX-FANS LOOK AT YOU DIFFERENT FOR THIS ONE! WAY 2 GO!!!!!!!!!!!!

35. I feel soo bad for the mom and her kids.. Wow.. I would hide from the media 2, if I denied my kids that were later murdered.. your a fake gangsta. You a sorry has been and never will be again in this life time.. Instead of buying bling, why don't you buy your ass a heart, soul and maybe a ticket out of the inferno which will be turning you into extra crispy nugget. Fake ass gangsta!
I ask that God hold them all in his heavenly home! minus Juvenile!

37. HE WAS A DEAD BEAT....THE MOTHER TOOK HIS CHILDISH BUTT TO COURT AND HE WAS GIVEN THE TITLE OF A DEADBEAT DAD SINCE HE A) DIDN'T CLAIM THE GIRL AS HIS DAUGHTER AT FIRST AND B) HE DIDN'T PAY THE CHILD SUPPORT.....LOSER ALERT!!! HE IS GOING TO HELL WITH GASOLINE BOXERS/BLOOMERS!

38. Although it is disturbing that he didnt attend his daughter's funeral, I wonder what the headlines would have been HAD he attended...."Rapper takes advantage of lime light to get attention cuz we all know he doesnt care for his daughter." We humans are never happy....always shredding others to pieces.

To ALL innocent, lil ones that leave us too early: Rest In Heaven.

39. Its pretty dumb to expect Junvenile to show up for the funeral when he denied the child in life. He had NOTHING to do with this child. He was even arrested for failing to pay the child support. Why would he show up now?

Although I think its wrong to claim he didn't attend the funeral to avoid the publicity. Just admit you didn't even know the girl and didn't really care.

44. if he was white you guys wouldnt be cruel to him at all..

its too much to handle having to watch your flesh and blood be laid to rest.
no need to jump to conclusions that he was a bad dad becasue i DAMN sure know that if he was white ya'al wouldnt be jumpin on the man's balls and all..
you guyz should be ashamed! how dare you jump to conclusions, i mean, hello the burying of a child is a real burden that is just too much for some people. you guyz will all burn in hell! shame on u, im a tell alli. (aka rev, al sharpton)
dont mess with us nyc chicks!

45. He should be ASHAMED of himself!!!! He didn't go because he didn't want to divert attention away from the service? Who does he think he is. He hasn't had a hit in years and even if he did that is his child and he refused to go to the service. He's a sorry excuse for a father.
