Kevin Samuels | Gone But Not Forgotten | Tribute To Life & Career of Image Consultant
Before They Were Famous - A podcast by Michael McCrudden

YouTube sensation Kevin Samuels, a multi-talented individual who spent the past few years taking the internet by storm through image consultations and dating advice, has died. Rumors of his death sent shockwaves through the Twitter verse and brought about mixed reactions to say the least -- because it seems like for every person that Kevin helped with his advice, he left two or three more people righteously ticked off. His meteoric rise over the past few years had a ton to do with the controversy he was able to drum up, particularly when it comes to his comments that targeted black women. While many saw his platform as a space for some much-needed conversations addressing women’s accountability in relationships, others saw him as nothing more than a charlatan. And to be perfectly honest with you, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen such an outpouring of celebration when a celebrity has passed. What about Kevin Samuels was so damn controversial that people are celebrating his passing? We’ll explore on our newest episode of Before They Were Gone.
