Jojo Simmons isn’t getting along with his father-in-law.
“Growing Up Hip Hop” star Jojo Simmons was subjected to a lot of drama during the recent episode. As it stands, he doesn’t have the best relationship with his father-in-law. Tanice Simmons’ father Buck Johnson has made it clear that he doesn’t like Jojo very much. But Jojo and Tanice don’t understand just what the root of the issue is. Frustrated by all of the tension, Jojo sought advice from his mother about how to quell all the bad energy. And she told him that the best step to take would be for Jojo to talk to Buck for himself. Jojo decided to take her advice and meet Buck at a recording studio to hash things out.
Well, it didn’t take long for Jojo to start regretting his choice. Buck was fed up. The conversation turned into an argument quickly. At times, Jojo felt like he couldn’t even get a word in. And when he asked Buck what led to their issues, Jojo said that Buck’s issues appear to be more so with Tanice than him. In fact, he pointed out that Buck didn’t walk Tanice down the aisle on their wedding day because Tanice didn’t want that. The reason was Buck had apparently caused a scene prior and Tanice just didn’t want to take any chances once the ceremony began.
Regardless, Jojo and Buck both felt disrespected by each other. And at the height of the contention, things only worsened in the recording studio. Buck told Jojo to exit the building because he didn’t like the exchange that they had. Jojo didn’t get up to leave and Buck then threw a bucket of ice in his face.
A comment from a GUHH fan bothered Jojo Simmons.
Jojo described the moment as Buck “acting like a girl” and being very “Love & Hip Hop” like. Interestingly enough, some “Growing Up Hip Hop” fans agreed with his sentiment on social media. And they called out Buck for taking things way too far. However, one fan told Jojo that they understood why Buck assaulted him. This didn’t sit well with Jojo either.
The Instagram user agreed when another GUHH fan wrote that Jojo and Buck needed to stop speaking over each other. They wrote, “Exactly. JoJo keeps talking and not listening. You’re not trying to work it out if the man can not even talk. I see now why he threw the water on him. He was wrong for that, but I understand his frustration. Love JoJo, but he was not respecting his elder here by talking over him.”
In response, Jojo wrote, “He’s the type of person that doesn’t let anyone get a word off..I have to talk to get my point across. You saying I deserved ice to be thrown on me because of talking? That’s the issue grown *** men shouldn’t have to resort to physical actions if they disagree.”
The respect your elders rule isn’t foolproof. Old fools don’t deserve respect. They have to work for it like everyone else. Tanice’s father is insufferable. I’m glad Jojo just walked away because Buck honestly isn’t worth losing your character over.
There are always going to be a select group of people who hate the Simmons family and will say stupid sh-t like this. I honestly think motherf-ckers been seething since that family reality show they had some years ago. Some people truly can’t take seeing a generation of black kids not struggle and have parents who love/support them. That is why Brianna hates that entire family.
I’m going to assume this person only watched the clips because Jojo’s father in law doesn’t like to let anyone talk, not even his own daughter.
His father in law is disrespectful. He needs to run his house and allow John to run his. Jojo if you and your wife had him pay for anything you should pay it back. Never go to him for anything
I don’t understand how anyone can watch these clips and think that the father in law isn’t the problem. It’s clear as day unless you lack context clues and common sense. He’s a d bag in every scene he films. So I can imagine he’s worse in real life.
JoJo is in a fight not his own. he needs a story-line. Plus he corny. Lucky he did not get hands put on him.
Tanice’s father is a hood rat it seems. I’m glad Jojo understands black men don’t have to be violent and ghetto trash in real life or TV.
Jojo was raised right so he probably is having a hard time seeing a grown man carry himself the way his father in law does. That man won’t listen to anyone and thinks he has a right to disrespect everyone, even his own daughter, grandchildren, and son in law! I completely understand why Tanice feels the way she does about him now. He’s awful!
