Rumors of the passing of the self styled image consultant broke on Twitter just days after he made comments about women over 35 being “leftovers.”
In the clip that circulated on social media, he said: “If you have made it to 35 and you are unmarried, you are a leftover woman. You are what is left. Men know that there is likely something wrong with you. Whether you want to hear it or not, I’m going to go there with you. I’m telling you the truth that you don’t want to hear.”
Those comments drew the wrath of some sections of social media and since his death some people have been celebrating his riddance, while others are expressing condolences and empathy.
It is not yet clear what would have been the cause of death as there is yet to be official confirmation from his social media accounts or website.
Kevin’s last Instagram post was on Wednesday.
Earlier this year Kevin had Nicki Minaj as a guest on his online show where he gave her a 9/10 rating, after she gave herself a 7.
While interviewing Minaj he was not his usual condescending self but was way more penitent in his engagement with the Pink Print rapper.
Minaj said she was of his show and was all ears to his advice while making it clear she has been wanting to speak to him for sometime.
“I wanted to get on and talk to you for a very long time” she said. “Well what do you rate me?” as Kevin reservedly answered, “I typically don’t rate people I usually let them rate themselves.”
Minaj also taught him a Jamaican curse word after he was unaware of the Pink Print rapper’s verbiage. Samuels Youtube channel with 1.3 million subscribers.
Last year the self titled prince of PanAfricanism, Dr. Umar Johnson made comments directed at Samuels. He called out the “misogynistic attitude towards Black women” by some YouTubers and influencers.
In Johnson’s opinion, they are profiting from “slandering and criticizing Black women who deviate from what he considers the Eurocentric standards of beauty and success.”
Samuels hit back questioning morals of Dr. Johnson, and highlighted the fact that Dr. Johnson, has two children from two women he never married.
Fans of the two have called for a Verzuz battle showdown.
“Dr Umar versus Kevin Samuels is the Verzuz we need,” said one tweet.
