Why A HOOD TALKS Will No Longer Write About Or Watch 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians'

Last Sunday's KUWTK episode, which I didn't get a chance to watch until last night, completely solidified for me why I stopped following them on Twitter and will continue to not "Keep Up" with them via the tube. My reason? Well, there are a few allow me to explain.

When the family first started out it was obvious Kim K, gave her entire family a platform in which to build their brand. The family unit then, seemed tight nit and close and it was even hilarious to watch the children prank their mom and her being super cool about it. It seemed like it was all good family fun and games with an occasional Kim throwing crying fits, and appearing somewhat shallow as she was hell bent on receiving her designer labels - hence, the infamous "Bentley" episode that caused major drama between herself and her siblings.

However, as time went on the family dynamics began to change as well as the looks of certain family members, but the absolute turning point for me was when Kim K totally manipulated NBA player Kris Humphries, by using her sexual and seductive prowess to pull him into her TV ratings trap while using him to have an extravagant wedding that didn't mean a lick to her - hence, the reason she tried to keep the huge engagement ring he gifted her. 

And this showed me exactly what kind of woman she is; it wasn't about her just being spoiled, shallow and nonintellectual, it was about her being vindictive and conniving while playing on the emotions of these men to get what she wanted. 

So when the next lap she hopped on was Kanye West, I was completely disgusted and appalled; not only because she cheated with the Yeezus rapper knowing he had a girlfriend, but because she was determined to continue using the backs of these men as stepping stools to pull herself to the top of....I still don't know.

And with last Sundays episode being not only boring but absolutely annoying as Kylie Jenner, mouthed off to her mother, Kim K being of no interest, Khloe seemingly trying to find relevance, Kris arguing with Bruce over his "transformations", and Kourtney and Scott appearing money hungry by trying to sell-off a family heirloom from the passing of Scott's parents; I am simply done.

If 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' continue to go on like this the TV ratings will continue to decline , until they become virtually non-existent. #Fade2Black

Lets have a before and after look at the "first family" of reality TV.
