Keyshia Cole: The Way It Is Season 3 Episode One Recap – Fresh Start

December 11th, 2008

keyshia-blog5.JPG                                                                                                 Hello World! My name is Stretch and I’m the online producer for Keyshia Cole: The Way It Is Season 3. So throughout the season I will be giving you my ‘unofficial’ recaps of each episode. So without further delay let’s get this thing started!

Wow, what a difference a year makes but in the world of Keyshia Cole not much has changed! When we last left our heroine she and her family were all kissing, crying and hugging at the reunion show and we thought all was good. Well, let’s just say that was short-lived.

The episode starts off with a fresh, leaner and more relaxed looking Keyshia. She has been getting her workout on which has done a good thing for her. I’m loving the new hair color and it looks as though she has repaired her gap(I thought that gave her character)on her front teeth. Nonetheless, she looks like a woman on a mission as she prepares herself for the new album and tour. Keyshia is not the only one with new things in her life, Neffe moves into the house that Keyshia bought her. It is a really nice gesture of sisterly love from Keyshia. Now Neffe has a place for her and her 4 kids to live and be a family. Yes, that’s right I said 4 kids! I’m sure you all remember Jaylen…Neffe’s son who was introduced in the reunion show. Well my man is in the mix and he loves himself some spaghetti! Neffe is still coping with a lot but has seem to become more chill. She is still going to therapy and working on herself for her kids. But all of this before we see Frankie, so I could be speaking prematurely!

Keyshia heads to L.A. to get cracking on her new album. From the look and sounds of things it’s going to be a smash especially with Polow Da Don on the production. We see Manny make a non-speaking cameo–way to go Manny! Keyshia shares that she is in a happy place right now in her life. Again, I must mention this is all before a Frankie sighting! LOL. Keyshia tells the crew that this album is special because she is single and that dude (who could she be talking about?) she was dating is out of the picture.

So halfway thru the episode the main-attraction hits the screen–cue suspension music…Frankie! Yes, Frankie aka Gannny makes her presence felt when she comes by Neffe’s house. There was no time for Kool-Aid and Oreo cookies before the two of them start to argue over Frankie’s belongings being put in a garbage bag! I guess Neffe is going to need another trip back to the therapist after this altercation. I love this family they are so hot and cold at moments which makes for some explosive television. From the sight and sounds it seems Frankie is a little hot under the collar since Neffe got the house that was meant for her. In more breaking news we are introduced to Elite–Keyshia’s sister and one of the seven kids by Frankie. Elite looks a lot like Neffe and it will be interesting to see how she and Keyshia interact with each other.

Well all of this and it’s just the first episode! Make sure to catch an all-new episode next Tuesday at 10 p.m.(ET/PT). Until then this is Stretch’s Unofficial Guide to Keyshia Cole: The Way It Is Season 3!

Keisha Cole, I think you are an extremely beautiful and talented young lady who has a heart full of gold.

But, your family and associates, take the advice of your financial advisor sweetie they are only USING YOU. You cannot change that in which does not seek change. Already based on all the things you have done for them all I hear them say is what “I” did, what “I’m” doing, I truly believe they have already forgotten that they have done nothing; you did it all including putting them where they are today.

It took you a lifetime to try and bring your family back together as a we factor and yet after one episode they are already talking about the me factor.

You will one day learn the hard way although, I hope not to hard that there are certain aspects in your life which will not and are not acceptable to those you will be surrounded by.

You will one day learn how to let things and PEOPLE go irrespective of what their relationship is to you.

Good Luck in your endeavors.

Dear Keisha Cole:

I love your music but I must admit I despise your family and the type people they are.

I try to understand how is that there are so many deserving people out here in the world faced with the same struggle as you if not worse and yet nothing good every comes to them and they don’t have the singing talent that you do have.

Your family is garbage and a bunch of users I wish you could see that. I do not believe not one of them has done anything in life to deserve the blessings that you have bestowed on them to which not one of them appreciate.

Your mother is an attention starving tramp.

I agree with Yanni, Keisha Coles family is a blatant embarrassment to most African American Families as no decesent individuals would ever deal with the likes of Frankie and her tribe. They are the most low class bunch of people I have ever seen and I have NEVER found this show to be anything but an complete embarrassment.

Their blatant ignorance is so overwhelming it is no wonder people like that live in their own damm world and do not obviously know how to act when being around others or in public enviornments, they all seem to think when being out its ME TIME and begin acting ignorant as a form of gaining attention for themselves as if their presence alone does not generate a certain level of attention.

Their behavior in public is worse than animals, I’VE SEEN PETS SHOW MORE ETIQUETTE IN PUBLIC RESTAURANTS THAN YOUR BARNYARD FAMILY OF PETS and this is what happens when you take ignorant people into enviornments they have never been exposed to before and not prepared mentally to be in.

Keisha Cole should be embarrassed to have exploited her family in this manner which obviously proved that by doing so it became lucrative for all parties involved. How shallow that someone would shame themselves and their family by allowing a network to pay all of you off for your ignorance.



Manno Said on

Someone please explain to me why crackhead Frankie acted they way she did when Keisha obtained that condo for her.

Is this not the same woman who abandoned all her children to live in the streets as well as a CRACKHOUSE she called home.

Something is so wrong in this family picture.

I was just reading these messages regarding KC and her family and I really have to agree. I stopped watching this show because it was becoming to embarrassing, season one was one thing but a return was more than I cared to deal with. I was not interested in coming home from work and even having to hear the likes of ignorant people like the Coles. I do everything I do in life to keep myself and children away from people like that and I truly resent someone like KC even bringing that element into environments in which certain element of individuals gather to escape from the reality of others ignorance. How dare they go into public environments and act the way they do, never mind them what about everyone else inside of those establishments who lunches had just been ruined or someone in a restaurant for business luncheons and things of that nature, or a mother with her children. How dare you bring their ignorant assess into these places and ruin our individuals or families reasons for being there or being out. It is obvious to a duck they don’t give a damm about their own children or how they conduct themselves in front of them, but to be so ignorant as not to care or show any consideration for others around them makes them a bunch of sick ass individuals.

P.S. My dog does in fact have more etiquette than anyone in your family



Brian M Said on

I AGREE, I AGREE, I AGREE, I AGREE

It is about time someone told it like it is with this family. And for GOD SAKES WILL SOMEONE PLEEEEEEASE TELL THEM TO STOP WITH THE CHEAP ASS WEAVES AND WIGS.

They is no way in hell Frankie, Neffi and the rest of the clan look at themselves everyday and could think they look anything but foolish. Frankie needs to GROW THE HELL UP. You are not your daughter and you certainly are no spring chicken, you missed that ride when you were younger and wanted to be so grown screwing and running the streets. Well, you certainly gave up your youth and lost it while on the pipe. Learn to dress like a woman is supposed to dress and perhaps it will have some sort of impact on the manner in which you carry yourself. Your behavior when going on stage with Keisha and how your present yourself is pathetic. I thank God my mother thought more of her children than you do of yours. Your are very sad pathetic woman.



Vanessa Said on

WOW!!!!

I thought I was the only one who felt this way about Keisha Cole and her family. These BET executives; I bet you not one of their own family members, friends or children even socialize with the likes of Keisha Cole and her family, and not to take the focus off of her family but Keisha Cole is not that bright either. Lets not forget Fantasia also is a talented singer who could write songs but she damm sure couldn’t read the music and listening to Keisha Coles dialect she definitely is not a HS graduate either. I think she is sadly mistaken if she thinks this is not going to have some impact on her career. Yes, she will continue too sing and sell songs but she will certainly have limited performances in certain venues because there is no way in hell those “venues” will even allow the likes of her family anywhere near them and as a result she will not be asked to perform at those places.

Pat Said on

Everyone, sorry to say but the show is called KEISHA COLE..THATS THE WAY IT IS..another words they are suppose to be keeping it real. Yes, the show is a complete embarrassment to Keisha. Frankie wants to be in the spotlight but unfortunetly that is her mother. Take it or leave it. But I really don’t think that Keisha realizes that — showbiz is all about IMAGE. The show is really effecting her image. Frankie you are not a mother — even though you gave birth to all your children — IN THE HEART — you are not and will never be a mother — Neffy…grow up — why you still having children especially by that youngin and expect these men to stand up. Close your legs — mature and move on. How you want a man if you haven’t matured enough to womanhood. Keisha PLEASE let the show go….sometimes you even have to let your family go. They cannot keep up with you. Keep on moving Keisha.

I love you very much.
