[...] Lyin’: I was among many who were taken in by Roxanne Shanté’s story of earning a Ph.D. due to a stipulation in her contract stating Warner Bros. would fund her education for life. It was soon exposed as a falsehood, and Shanté has finally apologized but not really. [...]

This chick aint pioneer shit, she wanted to front and lie and record a diss song like she was the real Roxanne whoopity whoop. This chick just lie to try to be respected but just like her entrance to the game, it was all just a well executed lie.

Boooooooooo! She was on Hot97 talkin big shit with Miss Jones, using big words and everything! How is it a misunderstanding? How do you misunderstand that you’ve never attended anybody’s school long enough to obtain any type of degree? Roxanne Shante was once a hip-hop pioneer, now … she just rides #thelamebus

“one error or mistake”… GTFO.. This was an intentional plan to decieve people about your educational background. Wether done to to inspire or for your own need to feel needed, it was wrong and gives people a false impression.
Shante’ has spoken on many panels and given many lectures. I’m sure most, if not all, were income generating. She is a complete fraud and only came “clean” after being found out, not the same as coming clean. I don’t think this “apology” is anymore sincere than the decade of lies she layed out.

That aint a apology! Apology: “I’m sorry for lying. I don’t have a PHD. But I’m still a hiphop pioneer”

She made the PHD claim in the first BEEF DVD. Why did it take so long for this to be addressed? Bang bang! 57thave!
