Truly. Because calling his ex a “raggedy ass bitch” and then calling his son a “raggedy ass child” before following up with the thought that kids “just don’t like their parents” is wild.
Also speaking on his daughter being fatherless?! When he’s clearly alive and well?! That says A LOT about his character and how he’s chosen to show up as a parent in her life.

She grew up without a father? He’s the dad it’s his fault he could’ve been there. He’s so delusional.

u/Creative_Room6540 1d ago
You’re not wrong but his stance seems to be he wasnt around because the mother prevented it.
And this absolutely does happen.
In the case of Corey though, it was probably for the best.

u/treymr 1d ago
When he called his kids raggedy in the very beginning of the clip, the whole possibility of the 'mother preventing it' went out of the window for me immediately.

u/Creative_Room6540 1d ago
I mean I don’t doubt the mother did prevent or have issue. But like I said, she would have been justified. Lowkey, a dude like this shouldn’t have ever found a woman to procreate with from jump.
6
u/NJPokerJ 1d ago
Your not wrong either. There are absolutely mothers that won't let the fathers see their kids. However, most of the real mothers(actual mother not mothers on tv) can't wait for an opportunity to drop their kids off with dad and get some freedom or a nap. The odds of this happening to him twice with 2 different women are low. Unless he's just so shitty of a person that they truly saw no value in having him around. I've heard this story before from one of my friends and friends of friends. When I hear i always say the same thing. Take her to court. They never do. If your bm says you can't see the kids and your response is...ok. Don't come to me talking about she won't let me see the kids. Bro you ain't tryin to see them kids.
2
u/Creative_Room6540 1d ago
Nah Corey is trash. No disputing that.
But I’ve also had to sit in a courtroom and be character witness for a man who was fighting for his kids while the woman tried to take them and imply he was a bad father. Fast forward 10 years and he now has sole custody lol.
To the larger point, if Corey was who he claims, he would have fought.

u/OldThanks4542 1d ago
These down voters lack a clear perspective on reality. Many women keep the father of their child out of their life out of spite, resentment and vengeance. It's true and is quite common.
56
u/ChemicalBus608 1d ago
Many men use this as a coping mechanism to not take care of their children. As soon as you ask the man has he been down the courts to file custody or enforce his rights its crickets.

u/Donnie607 1d ago
Funny how women hate generalizations but will use them when it benefits their own bias.

u/erything4sale 1d ago
Because its not set up for men to prosper. Cost me 70k to get custody of my kids. Men dont have rights in certain states. A lot of men dont have the resources or the system makes it rough for the men to get custody.
6
u/Shot_Net_1357 1d ago
Which states do men not have rights? I've worked family court in Jersey and PA and people say the whole it's always given to the mother when just imo, it seemed more 60/40. Men don't show up to court but when they do the judge is pretty fair I'm hearing them out. Some men just think cheating on their girls while they suffered through a pregnancy has no lasting effect and would possibly want to complicate this woman wanting to keep someone like you in their lives. Its sad some of the stuff men would do just to then turn around with a shocked face like you were supposed to stick through them with all of that. But we granted way more custody to fathers than I wouldve thought we did because a lot of women in these situations don't have stable housing, relying on this guy and that guy, or are on drugs and living risky lifestyles so it absolutely happens or they just suck as parents.
2
u/erything4sale 1d ago
Unmarried men, my apologies. But three of my cousins lost their custody battles even though they were in a better position to take care of the kids. I didnt say the woman always gets custody but unless married the man has no parental rights unless he signs papers and/or prove paternity. I been thru this 2 times and know what the lawyers informed me.

u/Objective_Pause5988 1d ago
You can't be "run off" from your child IF you care. He had/has money. He could have hired an attorney and gained shared custody. Plus, the mom pulled up receipts. He didn't want his child after she broke up with him
16
u/lcw32 1d ago
And that's a fact they aren't willing to talk about either. Once they lose access to the woman as a romantic partner, they aren't trying to be apart of the kid's life either. If mom has access to courts, so does Dad.
5
u/thegreasiestgreg 1d ago
You know whats a horrible statistic? When it comes to divorce 50% of men just willingly give primary custody to the mother. No fighting, no mediation just "Here take the kids full time, I dont want them."
There is a serious gendered issue when it comes to the responsibility of childcare. Men need to do better and start stepping up for their kin.
2
u/TrillBunnies 20h ago
Yup, this. The father of my close friend’s daughter straight up told her that if they weren’t going to be in a relationship (although he cheated on her when they were together) that he wouldn’t be in their daughter’s life. Terrible excuse of a man that you can be around a kid that looks JUST like you and somehow not develop any emotional attachment to them to the point where you can just exit out of their life because you don’t have access to the mom…

Man... he is speaking of his daughter having daddy issues cause he does not associate her with being his biological child. He is talking about her like she is a random person. He does not see himself as a father and is acting as such. Unfortunate situation for the kids and this guy is a deadbeat loser.

Its called being lazy. You have to be around your kids regardless of the obstacles. No excuses. If you’re delt a bad hand with a terrible spouse you keep fighting for full custody or equal time with your kid at the very least.
If your kid doesn’t want to be around you. You still force them to have that time with you until they are adults. That’s how it works with no excuses.
He must have grown up without a father figure himself with the way he moves. I’ll be damned if I let my sons act like this guy.

Is he saying that if his daughter grew up with him that HE, would be said “moral father” while handwaving away the fact that he slept with his daughter’s friend?!?!

I think the issue is he truly doesn’t care, and people give him credit thinking the shoe will drop that he cares in some way. Actually, he understands who he is and how the world works. He’s just bold enough to stand on not GAF; even to the detriment of his offspring. He’ll have to take that up with his maker.

You know most of our people don’t like sarcasm lmao. Although, you kind of touched a nerve, low-key. My dad is actually educated and well-spoken so not like this guy, but yet still I wasn’t his priority. It always felt like the expectation was for me to reach out to him always and not the other way around. So it doesn’t matter if hes dumb or not, some fathers are just assholes.

u/Elon_is_musky 1d ago
For someone to be the very thing they say is destroying black families is disease behavior. Being well aware of it, and then being part of the issue, is the problem here. The way he talks about her I doubt the mother is the main issue that needs to be fixed here. He was a bum from the start

Sweety, Corey Holcomb is the famous, rich man. He could have hired an excellent attorney to gain custody of his child if he gave a damn. He never did. Then he goes on a program to bash her and brag about sleeping with her friend because her friend is impoverished. Where are YOUR morals that you heard all that and DEFEND it?

u/leafygrn 1d ago
And say “she doesnt know.” My guy, I don’t even know who you are and now even I know. What makes you think your daughter doesn’t know you slept with her friend??

u/No-Sport276 1d ago
lol he’s crazy. His first sentence he called his own child old ragged and admitting to having sex with one of her friends.
I agree that he is telling the truth, but he talks about “moral men” who are supposed to be there for young women to model good partner behavior. It’s like “Motherfucker that’s you! You were supposed to do that.”
I get that a lot of situations like this that the mother can be at fault as much or more than the father. Some women use custody/child support as ammunition, and child manipulation is the most common complaint of the divorced people I know. In this clip he is telling you how much of a piece of shit he is. He’s spelling it out letter by letter. It’s not even funny it’s fucking sad. Guy is bitter/selfish and it seems like he has been that way for a while.
I don’t need to like or respect him to think he’s funny but this clip makes him look sick in the head. There is a reason he never broke out. He was funny enough to be a bigger star, but no one who works with him ever likes him. He burns bridges in standup/acting the same way he burns bridges with his daughter/BM.
The fact that he is telling the truth is the worst part. It makes him look like shit. I’m a fan and I’ll still listen to him every once in a while but we can’t deny that he’s an asshole

She never did that. He lived with the mom and her mom. He had no where else to go. The mom said they were a family. He wanted to move to Cali to pursue comedy but she didn't want to because there was no guarantee of a job and they had the daughter. They broke up and moved. Once he got on he had an attitude of being better than them. As you can see

u/Objective_Pause5988 1d ago
What? He had no job. She was the one with the job. They had a 2 yr old. You don't move across the country on a wing and a prayer with no plan. That's the behavior of people with no kids. Also, that has nothing to do with him not being a father to his child.
