Ceaser’s exit from “Black Ink Crew” was a result of a controversial video being leaked.
“Black Ink Crew” star Ceaser had a very controversial departure from the hit reality show. As we reported, a video of Ceaser allegedly abusing a dog went viral on social media. Donna was one of the first former cast members to bring attention to the video. She called for Ceaser’s firing and once the backlash rolled in, VH1 announced Ceaser would no longer be on the show. Interestingly enough, producers said that they would keep the footage Ceaser filmed before his exit. So fans of the show would be able to see how things were going up until that controversial point of Ceaser’s life.
To no surprise, Ceaser didn’t like how his time on “Black Ink Crew” ended. In fact, he did interviews and called out producers for moving so swiftly. Ceaser felt like his time on the network should have afforded him some grace. But things just did not play out that way due to the backlash he received from viewers. And by the end of his run, he began to think that producers used him and other past cast members in very unhealthy ways. In his opinion, their real problems weren’t treated delicately. So he thinks they were exploited.
Well, it looks as if Ceaser may get his revenge in the upcoming episodes of “Black Ink Crew.” In the supertrailer, Puma and Teddy want to do whatever it takes to move forward. Teddy asks Puma, “What we do? Go and get another shop?”
Puma answers, “Yeah. As long as you and me are here, it’s still Black Ink.”
Some people do not approve of Puma and Teddy’s plan.
When Puma breaks the news to the rest of the crew, Spyder is not happy. He screams, “Like got **** we ain’t even bury the body yet!”
Young Bae has a different concern. She tells Tati that she’s not okay with working for someone who isn’t a tattoo artist.
At some point, Puma comes to the conclusion that they need to really be thorough as they look for new artists. So he proposes they move a group of new artists into a house. And they will go through a process in which they have to prove themselves to be hired to work at the shop. However, those who aren’t able to produce will be kicked out of the house.
Spyder still isn’t on board. So he later pulls up to the scene with Ceaser seemingly in the car to hand over some legal papers to Puma and Teddy.
He tells them, “I came with Cease. He wanted me to deliver a message.” Spyder continues, “He didn’t give nobody the authority to open up any Black Ink.”
Another highlight from the trailer includes tense scenes between Rok and Krystal. Their engagement fell apart. And they are clashing as they attempt to still run a shop together.
In one scene Rok tells Krystal, “I don’t give a **** if you’re ******* another *****. Don’t disrespect me at the shop!”

I feel like he don’t want them to do they own thing cause his has to be involved wow 😲😲😲😲
CEASER IS BLACK INK & THE CREW!
I was told that he and Ted aren’t really related. He just claimed Teddy as a cousin for old times’ sake. I was done with Teddy last year. He has never managed, he can’t tattoo. What does/did he do? Puma, Teddy and the rest of ya’ll can kick rocks.
We all get a reprieve and believe me, Ceasar will get his. I do support KP and I want him to win. Cat, the light girl who fell for Ryan and told on him, Bye! I wish you luck but not on Ceasar’s and Ryan’s back.

Facts
Well I hope Caesar sees now who his true friends are and it’s not Puma and his fake a-s cousin Ted
I don’t watch the show anymore since Ceaser is not on the show. It just don’t feel right to me🤔
Well, I am watching the show and it’s so good! I love the vibrant storylines and the talent is next level. I don’t let one person dictate what I watch, what I read, what music I listen to, what I participate in, etc. Ceasar is flawed just like all of us. The majority of y’all commenting like Ceasar is all that. Well, he’s not. Recognize!
Lucky Chucky! I respect your own opinion and ideal of doing it your way. That’s my point exactly. I respect your thoughts and I can only hope that you respect mine. We are all flawed and I would bet my life that if God is judging any of us today, he will find a lot of flaws. You can’t wipe a man off the face of the earth because he made a wrongful decision.
I’m not condoning what he did but what I am doing is saying he deserves a 2nd chance just like me, you and everybody else in this crooked world of ours. Don’t be so quick to throw a person in the fire because we all have to pay for our transgressions and no man/woman is exempt.
Thanks!
I feel the same I don’t watch it either without Ceaser..
Teddy was the one who started the whole reality tv thing that was it! I ran into him in New Orleans at the Essence festival we stayed at the same hotel anywho he is a TOTAL JERK just as you see him on the show he think he is better then people.
Ceaser and Teddy has bullied and beat put hands on the staff and VH1 allowed it to get higher ratings. Ted is Ceasers left boots cheek. He doesn’t do a damn thing!! I believe Ted and Ceaser are low key lovers. Pay attention to the way Ted’s to the way that Ted holds his lips. I have a lot of gay friends and family members. And the all say it. Ted and Ceaser are NOT related. Ted loves to pucker them lips up like Luther Vandrose. Fyi
I completely agree 💯
Excellent comment!💯
Ryan is garbage who screws their friends girl and also Caesar helped him get on TV, Ryan has no loyalties he’s garbage, without Cease that show is doomed
Cesar is the show! PERIOD! I’m only watching the episodes with Cesar, I’m out!
Lmao cat definitely ain’t worried about him with her two kids and a whole NFL HUSBAND! YOU definitely tried it though boo that was cute…NEXT?
Black Ink is his intellectual property and just can’t use the name which belongs to him. That’s business 101🤷🏾♂️
Caesar built black ink! They need to find a another name
I CONCUR!
RED INK! BLUE INK!
BLACK INK ISN’T THE ONLY COLOR.
Crazy they ended Ceaser career because a dog. But police can never mind smh
“They” didn’t end Ceasar’s career. He did that on his own. Look, it really isn’t about the act itself (Ceasar abusing the dog). It is – and always have been – about Ceasar’s arrogance and hatefulness and his very petty ways. He had been so full of himself for years. I guess he went too far and Massa had to literally “put him down” (like a very abused dog). Wow, the irony!!!! Wise up to the game Bro. And be careful about coming to the defense of someone who really don’t deserve your loyalty. You are who you support.
Lucky Chucky!
You didn’t ask but I’m posting that I totally disagree with you. I’ve watched every season and I’ve watched how he’s helped everyone who thought he owed them more.
I’m team Ceasar and as long as he’s not a part of the Black Ink show, I will never watch.
Respecting your opinion!
Well. When they beat Alex, nothing was done
Facts! Sounds fishy! Even Michael Vic was forgiven and he his situation was more embarrassing smh! Where’s the Justice ! 😭
Ain’t no wow how you gonna go on with my name that I started give me the boot and just rock out with my artist name everything and don’t ask me permission nor break me off?? Wtf 🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️. The only loyal ones are bae tatts and spyder especially spyder
Spyder is a yes man
Easter egg head Ceasars just being petty.🤣🤣
I won’t be watching……..Cease started Black Ink and now Chicago isn’t coming back…I may watch LA….I may not but…NY is a no for me…it is a slap in the face what Puma and Ted is doing…. I guess they love that tv check….
Amen, Gemini’s Twin!
I CONCUR!
I concur, not watching NY. it’s not the same without Ceaser. Teddy….you suppose to ride for family dude. SMDH😫😫
👍🏽
I absolutely won’t watch either I hope VH1 loses millions because of the too hasty decision to fire Ceaser….Ted and Puma are in NO WAY Black Ink that is and always will remain Ceaser Emanuel’s…. I thought those two were on Ceaser’s side loyally forever…. They are betrayers and haters…. can’t unfortunately wait to see them get cancelled because they have no idea how to run a business….not just anyone can be Cease and/or Black Ink.
They won’t get a check anymore!
Puma im kinda surprised, but teddy has always been messy and sloppy. I don’t think Teddy even know what an operating agreement is or how to obtain one. Why would they still use the black ink brand that is not registered to them? There is very odd and weird. Tell me you don’t know how to form a business without telling me. It’s the ghetto, in my Nene voice!
I read somewhere that Ceasar didn’t Patten the name, Black Ink Crew. So, VH did it behind his back.
It’s all about self-preservation for them. Loyalty means nothing to them. VH1 probably didn’t even give them a raise.
Everyone makes mistakes but that Black Ink Crew needs to be taught a lesson. He handpicked every one of them even after some of them did him wrong.
I’m team Ceasar! And just like Mike Vic, he will get a comeback and when he does, I’ll be there to support him.
No the own the name black ink crew Caesar owns the name black ink
NO, CEASAR DOESN’T OWN THE NAME. THE PRODUCERS SAID IT AT THE END OF LAST SEASON TO THE GROUP. THAT’S WHY THEY ARE ABLE TO COME BACK WITH BLACK INK!
SOMEONE IN HIS CREW LEAKED THAT VIDEO OR IT COULD HAVE BEEN DUTCHESS OR DONNA. WHO KNOWS? THEY WILL HAVE THEIR KARMA TOO!
I believe it was spider cause on the next episode he is the one said he was loyal to ceaser
Ceasar owns Black Ink LLC. VH1 owns Black Inc Crew, similar to what happened to Nick and MTV with Wild N Out. Ceasar cab shut them down because Teddy and Puma has percentage to certain shops but Cesar has operating control. They can appear on TV but cannot open or operate the shop under the Black Ink name.
Ceasar owns Black Ink name. He said it awhile ago that after or during the first season he went and filed for the rights to it as VH1 didn’t, the smartest thing he did. If you look at all the seasons credits for all the shows for Executive Producer, it’s him and Ted. Later he other guys at the different shops became EPs also. He looked out.
Ted, idk if they are actually related or not, is the one who told Ceasar to do the show. If not for Ted, there would be no Black Ink Crew. That’s why his spot on the couch was secure.
He will be back, the video that was leaked was old. It gives him a chance to take a break and focus on business. He’ll be back either very late this season or more likely next season.
Vh1 copyrighted the name black ink crew but puma and Ted are dumb and still using black ink which needs ceasers approval
I agree with you…both of them but Puma is the biggest idiot.Caesar manhandled him already and he learned absolutely nothing. None of the employees or prospective employees have any respect for him..he is a clown. He IS intelligent but also stupid as hell, kind of an offsetting effect. Caesar got canned and Teddy and Puma went rogue! They act as though they were named beneficiaries because of his downfall. Vultures!
I’M TEAM CEASAR ALL THE WAY TO THE END. I WILL BOYCOTT BLACK INK ANYTHING! YOU ALL PUT PEOPLE OF COLOR AGAINST EACH OTHER SO MUCH AND WHEN THEY FALL SHORT YOU CRUSIFY THEM. WE HAD A COUNTRY RAN BY A MURDERER WHO STOLE, EXPLOITED WOMEN AND IS STILL TRYING TO KILL OFF PEOPLE. VH1 CAN BURN!
CEASAR, IT DOESN’T EXCUSE YOUR ACTIONS LIKE IT DIDN’T EXCUSE MIKE VIK’S BUT YOU WILL GET YOUR REPRIEVE! BUT ALL THOSE PEOPLE WHO ARE WILLING TO WALK AWAY FROM YOU FOR A $1, REMEMBER THEM. THAT’S WHAT THEY DO!
PITCH TO ANOTHER NETWORK! YOU ARE BLACK INK! IF YOU DON’T OWN THE NAME, TRY RED INK!
Cease is petty so I’m not surprised he did this.
IF YOU’RE IN THE UNITED STATES, YOUR GOVERNMENT IS PETTY!
CALL THE REAL ABUSERS OUT!
I AM A UNITED STATES CITIZEN TOO! AND, I’M TEAM CEASAR ALL THE WAY FOR THE LONG HAUL!
He’s also smart, more than you can say about Ted or Puma who are bumbling idiots.
I think this is the last season.
Sh-t this show is done and they just don’t want to put it out of its misery for some reason. Fans aren’t going to care about any of these new people like that.
I can’t believe what I’m reading! Seems like a lot of folks are quick to forget how Bro abused the h-ll out of that dog! And it’s probably something he’s been doing for a long minute. I can’t with Ceasar. I’m completely done with him. For those of you who are still Team Ceasar, good luck with that. As for Puma and Teddy: I would love that TV check too. Ain’t nothing wrong with that!
I’m done!
If I’m not mistaken, it was Ted that got them on TV
VH1 filmed black people, humans, beat each other and tear each other down and it was good tv. But when a dog is abused, Caesar has to leave his own show??? I don’t condone animal abuse but they, like all white supremacist put the value of a dog over the value of a person of color. But they want to exploit the abuse and violence as long as it doesn’t affect whites or dogs. Remember, Sky was allowed to whoop several heads in the shop but was fired when she shoved a white woman producer of the show. If violence is wrong it should apply to everyone not just dogs and white people!!!
Angel,
I received what you said but a word of advice, watch your words because some platforms will block you. Your words are powerful and true. I personally try and not support a lot of programs because of the statements that you made. That goes from TV to buying clothing, shoes, vacations ie; you name it.
Some people are still getting rich off of our backs because some of us don’t care if we sell our souls as long as we get a few more dollars.
So, Kudos to you for being courageous in your writing.
VERY GOOD POINT
Facts
Very well said!!!!💯 That’s real as real can get!
Notice past episodes He never wanted any of them to make their own way.
I’m team Ceaser . He’s a great businessman who knows the tattoo industry. Donna can’t talk about nobody with her dumb a-s. She just mad because Ceaser got her off the show.
Talking about being abrasive Donna beat the beans out of her man when on the show
I never liked her not surprised she did that
I am so glad he left her
she was the worst tattoo artist in the world.
Ted or Teddy whatever his name is NEVER did a damn thing on the show but sat on the soft and kept up shit and/or tried to screw everything that walked in the shop! He should have been Gone…….
Once again…a new season of 💩.
I do feel sad for Krystal & Rok but I kinda figured they weren’t go to last.
Ceaser is going down with his ship
Ceaser got what he deserved. He became too arrogant and thought he could do whatever he wants and that’s just not how life works. Actions have consequences. Now if the network is using his trademark without permission, he ain’t wrong to hit them with a cease and desist. Business is business.
Know one deserves to be dismissed like that. You wouldn’t feel good if it happened to you.
Agreed! Brilliant business move!
I believe if they took Caesar off they should have ended the show everything started with Caesar & they were too hard on him with the dog situation. Ted & puma can never do what Caesar has done with black ink plus none of them have a clue about tattoos or having a business!! Team Caesar!!!!
Puma already has a successful tattoo shop called Art2 Ink. Cesar didn’t create Black Ink on his own. So let’s not discredit what Puma and Ted has contributed. If you think that they don’t have a hand in running the other shops would be foolish. And if you also think that Cesar doesn’t have a hand in what is going on this season is also foolish. Cesar, Puma, and Ted know that this little drama keeps Black Ink in the media, which is good business
Yes that again yes DAT part 💯💯💯
I don’t feel the show should have been ended because people have livelihoods but I don’t feel Ceaser should have been let go like that. People are humans not placeholders. Ted and Puma should stand up for him not stab him completely. Just wrong and judgmental on tv. Watch who you call family
I’m team Ceasar, I don’t care who started what when. I have not watched the current season and I won’t. However, I have seen all seasons and was an avid viewer of all seasons prior to this mess.
The world is always on 10 ready to condemn people for their transgressions. If you’re in the U.S., look at your previous president. He has caused people to perish and there are those that still support him.
I’m ready for reality tv to have an overhaul. It’s time to get back to life, love and liberty. They pay us a little while they make millions on us. We sell our souls for a piece of the American dream only to find out that the dream still has nightmares.
Good Riddance!
P.S. I support and will continue to support Ceasar.
I agree, I am and always will be Team Ceasar, it’s not the same without him on the show so I don’t watch it anymore,it’s to unorganized, they really just doing shit just for a check
Evidentially, I’ve been watching a different show because I didn’t see the arrogance nor did I see how he treated people badly. The shows I watched he gave people who didn’t deserve second chances over and over even after they screwed him. He gave them camera time to show their own individual lives ie; Donna, Melody, Bae, Walter etc., etc.
So yes, I’m team Ceasar. It’s unfortunate that we turn on people when we have no clue as to how it is to run a business that you started. Whether Tedd, Puma or anyone else was there in the beginning because if it wasn’t Ceasar’s shop, I’m sure it would not have been focused on his main character.
If you want to condemn someone, condemn your government, condemn the television networks that pay people pennies when they make millions on your soul, condemn the advertisers who are probably your ex-president friends.
I want to know who owns what because if I don’t, I’m probably supporting the same people who were at the insurrection on Jan 6th who smiles in my face every day while they still make money on my back.
CEASAR DO YOU AND DON’T WORRY ABOUT THE PEOPLE WHO DON’T LIKE YOU OR SUPPORT YOU BECAUSE YOU HAVE THOSE THAT DO.
Whether that show is successful or not, I have not watched it and I will not watch it. Whoever is advertising the show will not get a dime of my money.
Blessings and Best Wishes!
👍🏾💯
Yeah. You most definitely watching a different show. Your blind allegiance is quite laughable. Good luck with that.
Lucky Chucky’s Sis,
Thanks for your feedback and thanks for the Good Luck wish. It is received. From the words of Denzel Washington “Luck is when preparation meets opportunity”, So, that is well received.
Best Wishes!
Team Caesar if you’re team Caesar.and so down. Then u would know that he’s on board with Ted and Puma continuing the show that’s good business. Im pretty sure they all get together and discuss what’s what. Plus u would have seen something written somewhere or heard from someone who knows him talking about puma and Ted. Y’all sound like about bunch of silly kids it ain’t that serious. U not watching the show to support your own but I’m sure your not going to stop watching one of your favorite predominant white show huh.If anything im sure he’s happy puma is willing to keep his brand floating after the Way he treated him in the past. True friends!!! Spider could just be trying to make himself relevant bc he’s not on Tv know more. Plus he wasn’t trying to be loyal when he seen that Ted & Puma got new artist.
I don’t know you so, I can’t make any judgements of you. I’m Black, I’m 62 yrs old and I ain’t watching the show. I support Black on Black almost everything but I can tell you this; Some of us sell our souls to the devil just to win. Every $ is not a win for us.
Respectfully, thanks for your point of view but not judgement.
Im a season Black female. The way u replied to my comment gives me all kinds of respect for u. Did u c any of Caesars interviews. He explained that it a bitter female that put that out . Something that happened long time among other things he clarified but not once did he say anything bad about Puma or Ted which let’s u know he’s still getting his cut with or without VH1
I have only seen one of Ceasar’s interviews. For me, it’s not just Ceasar. It’s our realty tv across all of the franchises. Those people seem to make, millions and billions off of us and feed us enough to make it seem like we’ve made it. You haven’t made until the majority of your people make it.
I wish them all the best. I can’t make it by stepping and stabbing my own people in the back.
Best Wishes!
How y’all gone have Black Ink without Ceaser..Foul Foul Foul..Talk about Loyalty the show most definitely is not the same without him. He built Black Ink and y’all just gone snatch it from him like that, not to mention the crew that was supposed to be family just fell apart.
Frfr. I’m not watching without Caesar. PERIODT. I wonder what the views now?
I’ve been watching black ink from day one. Ceaser will get his show back. This I know. He’ll he didn’t do what Michael Vick did. Some other network will pick up the show. Everyone watched the show. I love cease. I was born and raised in the Bronx. I currently live in TX. Trust and believe Ceaser will and can come back from this. It’ll take some time. But I’ll be there waiting to support.
This is the difference between white people and black people. Do you know how many CEOs, owners and businessmen and women mess up and have to face the consequences and yet business continues. Damon said it best when he said Black Ink is a culture and the filter is owned by us. Ceasar should be proud it’s continuing and instead of fighting those who are moving forward he should spend that energy behind the scenes. He can still make money without being on the camera. When he started he allegedly didn’t even have an LLC formed or proper paper work. Not only is Puma and Teddy keeping things moving forward they seem to be making mature choices. Black people are way too d-mn proud. White people can hate each other guts and still shake hands and close deals because they see the bigger picture. Do you know how many black owned products, services and companies have sold to other companies not black owned? Did we as black people stop using the products and services? No. I’m proud to see things continuing to go. This is a legacy and to walk away, close or fold is not the answer. Legally Ceasar owns Black Ink and only Black Ink…VIACOM International INC owns Black Ink Crew. So Ceasar has 100% right to everything that is black ink to include apparel but VIACOM owns ALL Black Ink Crew. This multimillion dollar company knew what to do. Ceasar built the Black Ink brand but VIACOM built Black Ink Crew. If any of you believe that Puma and Teddy made these moves without Ceasar they didn’t. They are all working together for ratings and growth. It’s not about loyalty it’s about being strategic. Ceasar is apart of everything that is going on. Teddy, Puma and Ceasar are working together regardless of what everyone thinks. This is smart.
Sarafia Washington,
I respect your opinion but you can only speak of the people that you know. I’m surprised that Urban Belle allowed your comment to be posted. Talking about races of people in the way that you have is very disrespectful to me. And yes, I am a Black Woman who’s proud to be who I am.
Stereotypes is what I read. I’m not sure of your race but you’re speaking of two races as if you know the majority of both.
The bottom line as a 62yr old Black woman is that you don’t know what you’ll do until you walk in a man’s/woman’s shoes. We talk about Oprah Winfrey, Tyler Perry, Michael Jordan etc., etc. saying what they should be doing in our community. It’s the same thing. Stereotyping! Are you in their shoes, do you know how much money they have and what do you know about their giving.
I am still team Ceasar. Black Ink was started with him. If they wanted to continue, they could have continued under a different name. I wish them the best but I am tired of people in general of all races kicking a man and counting him out because he made a bad decision. If we held everyone in this world accountable for their poor thinking, bad choices and decisions, there will probably be no one left on the planet.
Ceasar your comeback will be greater than you can see right now. Don’t let it/them get you down! What God has for you, is for you and no man can interrupt that plan.
Best Wishes!
P.S. If you live in America, pray for the crook who is still lying and trying to run this country into ruins.
@Inger, which crook are you referring to? Be specific!
@Sarafia Washington actually knows Ceez, Ted, and Puma. So…
I agree…. another name…why didn’t they run with the Art2Ink name? Puma sh-t himself in the foot trying to capitalize on an entity that he has no claim to. I have friends as far back as the sandbox. I’m not on their pensions or in their wills.
Alright, Ronald G. Wilson!
I concur!
And, Lucky Chucky! I think you know who I’m speaking about. There are a lot of crooks but this one stands out bodly!
