He Ain’t So Bad’: ‘Black Ink Crew’ Fans Applaud Ceaser Emanuel for Consoling Miss Kitty After This Scene

It seems “Black Ink Crew” star Ceaser Emanuel may have redeemed himself this week after getting slammed for his apparent “a–hole” behavior.

Last week, the shop owner got dragged online for being inconsiderate towards his ex-girlfriend Crystal after he seemingly complained to her about being a full-time parent for a week. Crystal, the mother of his teenage daughter Cheyenne, underwent jaw reconstruction surgery and sent their daughter to stay with Emanuel while she recovered. He apparently took issue with that.

However, during Wednesday night’s episode, viewers praised him after witnessing him consoling his brand ambassador Miss Kitty, who’s mother had just died.

After, losing her mom to lung cancer a few episodes ago, Kitty asked Emanuel if he’d like to visit her mother’s old home in Memphis. The home was apparently a part of Kitty’s mother’s memory that she wanted to still keep alive. However, as soon as the pair arrived to the address, they noticed that her mother’s old house no longer existed and evidently was torn down.

The brand ambassador was devastated and broke down in tears, saying in her confessional, “It feels like somebody just kicked me as hard as they could in my throat. I thought that I would have at least my mother’s old house to hold onto, but now that’s gone too. Everything is gone.”

Emanuel instantly hugged Kitt as she cried on his shoulders.

Several “Black Ink” fans offered their sympathy for Kitt, while others applauded the shop owner for consoling her.

“😢 I am so sorry for you Kitty. I appreciate Ceasar for being there wit through those hard times!! I could tell that shit really hurt Kitt!! U a good dude C’s!!!”

“Good job to Ceaser I gotta give him props for being there for her. Im glad he had her back💯. My heart breaks for Kit.”

“Any other time I think ceez is a jerk but he ain’t so bad. I’m happy he was there for Kitty. She needs it 🙏.”

“I’m glad ceaser is there for her and in this moment I have nothing bad to say about him ❤️ #goodjobbossman”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
