When friendships fizzle out – Lil Fizz and the brocode

30 Nov , 2019  

Every major movie that I can remember had some type of life lesson. The lesson could be as simple as “you only get three great women in your life” or as deep as “be ready to leave anything or anyone in 30 seconds or less.” If you grew up watching these movies, it instilled a sense of morality or value in you, well at least they did for me. One of the earliest lessons that I learned was to stick by your guys, grow with them, and trust only them, especially if you matured/evolved together. I still have the same core group of friends and have kept them most of my life. We know each other’s secrets, and we guard those secrets, because of a sense of duty to do so called the “brocode.” It’s just what the brocode says to do, its rule 0 (full list coming soonish).

Another important rule is bros before hoes. Loosely translated that means do not put a woman before your brother. Why? Because for most men, a woman can be his biggest strength or his biggest weakness. You share and confide in your brother to gain perspective and objectively view her actions. Its unfathomable for your brother to take that same information about said woman and enter into a relationship with her. That is exactly what Lil Fizz did to Omarion.

They were bandmates in B2K and costars on LHHH. The mother of Omarion’s children has been on the show and is now dating Lil Fizz. Another bandmate tried to counsel Fizz that his actions were wrong, and Fizz disregarded the advice. He chose to date his bandmate’s ex woman and risk the cohesion and money of the entire band. To no surprise, Omarion is continuing his tour without Fizz or the other bandmates. Big bags lost, and for what??? For why? We are outnumbered 4:1 by women yet he chose that one? A shoulder to cry on became a pole to ride on. Salute to Omarion for taking the high road and not publicly slandering his childs’ mother. She has exhibited some poor judgment and seems to think that her actions or beyond reproach. Nope, sorry, you’re bugging miss.

As a survivor of a brocode violation, I can tell you that the initial shock does not go away quickly. You can never look at him or her the same because that breach of loyalty and the utter treachery ruins any trust that you may have had in him/her. I too like Omarion took the high road, and 86’d the friendship. Brocode exists for a reason, and violators should be prosecuted in the court of public opinion to the fullest extent. Anyone who says differently, is one text away from trying to pull an X-Man like Wolverine to take your Jean Grey.
