Pedophiles should get the death penalty because they might not actually kill their victims but they definitely do take their victims lives.
The government will never do that. For the fact they're a bunch of pedophiles themselves.
They kill them mentally. You kill a man's spirit you have killed him
Daniel DeVito Wrong Christ can forgive anyone.You should be worried more about your sins and if your going to heaven.
@@ClubHead go 🖕🏾🖕🏾 urself
People don't want to kill murders these days, let alone child molesters...
God please heal Ronald Savage. Now
He should have never let it happen.
Monica Mondy Hassan as well and all the boys that fell victim to nasty azz Bambada! What a evil 👿 man.... not man but creepy creature
AMEN
Seems like God does not care though
@@quaweeguy exactly!
THERE SHOULD BE ABSOLUTELY "NO" FUCKING STATUE OF LIMITATIONS ON CHILD MOLESTATION OR RAPE. PERIOD.
Agreed.
real shit !!
PERIOD! why is it a statue of limitation when the victim is never really healed!
+Terrance Moss FEAR! (the mind of a child)
People kill me on that "this is what I would have done" bullshit! Nobody KNOWS what the fuck they would have done as a child at that time! REALIZE, that you are currently speaking from the mindset of an adult!
I'M so sorry this happen to him. He is absolutely telling the truth . I have been a Sexual Abuse/Assault Therapist for 13 years. There are so many black boys who have and are going through the same thing. The psychological side-effects he experiences is what made me believe him 100%!!! I'm so glad he is telling his story.
And no one beloved out black boys.
Monica Rae Monica Rae are you familiar with Hassan Poppy Cambell do you believe him
Monica Rae this man is laughing about performing for girls laughed about going to his house cause he had nowhere to go are you kidding me I can see right through his demeaner and know that this is structured bye the producers this man probably had fat pockets after telling his "story " also you don't think that the government knows how real rape victims or molested victims act that they can't shoot this scene over and over to make it believable I mean please open your mind bambata is the create of a movement that opens your mind to what the government does behind our back under our noses like illegal gun smuggling importing drugs and distributing it out in the public to get us all locked up and creating visions in the minds of the masses about how black and Mexicans act talk and what they do
ITS TIME FOR A CRUSADE AGAINST THESE DISGUSTING SATANIC HOLLYWEIRD PEDOPHILES!!!!!!!!
Sorry that happened to you young lady. It happened to me too
"Molestation is much to common. Watch your children. Don't trust no one with your children".
Big Fuckin facts
Bra this is too much detail... This nigga ain't lying
i said this. pop and save aren't lying.
I believe him. You can see in his demeanor that's he is telling the truth
I believe him too. Nobody wants to be a rape victim. Nobody wants to be known as a rape victim. There’s no glory in that. I hope he sees justice one day.
i do to i have been hearing allot about this im from the bronx
I would of believed him if he would of pressed charges in 2016 when they passed the new Law 🤔
One of the very few insta believes i have had. Plus he isnt suing.
@@BoricuaNyc Mind you that at the time there was only a 2 to 3 yr age difference between them and Bambata. This guy was in the 9 grade at the time, he was 17 years old. He wasn't no child.
You’re brave Ron savage for coming out. I’m a kidnap victim and my kidnapper tried to molest me but I fought him off. I convinced him to let me go home to get my clothes and that’s when my parents came home and I told them what had happened. I told the cops when they came to my house where he was and they went there, beat him up real bad and put him in prison. I am open to coming out about what happen and I never held it back. My heart goes out to all victims that were kidnapped or sexually abused. It doesn’t bother me to talk about it and I use it as a platform to Share it with anybody that has gone through the circumstances. It’s a painful thing that I have to live with the rest of my life and it’s good as a healing process to open up about it, God bless.
I feel pain listening to this. He’s been plagued by a life of suffering, depression, anxiety. I pray that god heals him.
Through his expression , I believe this dude man so sad
The blank stare off tells it all. Totally heart breaking. I hope him being open finds him the peace he deserves 💔
We have a big issue in our community. For far too long, the black community has either hidden or ignored the sexual depravity that is knowingly going on. The creepy uncle that the family warns not to kiss or hug or be alone with. The neighbor, be they male or female, that everyone knows to walk across the street and not directly in front of their house. Let's stop acting like this doesn't happen. We know the saying is "keep it in the family". Y'all, this shit has got to end and now! I feel for this man and the others that have been abused. It is easy to say what one would do if they are grown but this happened as a young child. Sorry, I tend to believe the victims as statistics state that the percentage of people lying about this type of abuse is low and with men, it is even lower. Why black men tend to victim blame and take sides with the accused is beyond me. But this here proves that the sexual abuse undercurrent that is in our communities is a thread that needs to be ripped out. I am tired of broken adults who said nothing out of fear. It is high time we deal with this head on. My heart goes out to anyone effected by sexual abuse.
You got your booty snatched up ....mmmmhhhhhmmm that's what happens to little girls flirting with them grown folk
Its not just the black community.
@@HighExplosiveDualPurpose40mm Just because a lil girl flirts with an old person, doesn't mean they should oblige the child.
Our community ? I guess the catholic church community touching boys is a black.issue to. Can yal.please stop belittling our community with short mindedness . This is an issue for every community
Gotta take out the trash. We will kill each other in some areas over an affair or any type of blatant disrespect but this man everyone knew was a creep and messing with young boys and nobody aired him and his enablers out. Stupid.
No statue of limitations on Bill Cosby though
Facts makes u wonder🤔
Hmmm🤔
@@facejointsmynigga8970 not at all ... Y'all talk without any facts. Bill Cosby case was different as hell. He'd had new allegations... The old shit is not what he was in trial for, but it was used as evidence of character. They had women coming forward, but they had no case against Bill. Bill's deposition did him in, and the fact that in trial it's up to the jury and not the facts. Y'all niggas ain't never been thru trial so y'all can't understand. This is why the u.s. justice system is the worst I'm the world... Once u decide to go to trial, I put urself at the mercy of the jurors. The judge only presides over the case... The lawyers fight it... But the jurors decide, and if they don't think it innocent sans any of the evidence, they will convict u. This is why so many men, black and white are sitting in prison forever on shit that they didn't even do. So many documentaries on Netflix and Hulu about innocent men finally getting exonerated after 30 and 40 years in prison behind juries who couldn't understand the lack of evidence, and whatnot.
If people cant understand that he didn't want to be judged, looked at as a gay person, or even killed back in the day, then you are living under a rock from emotional experiences and you have to know, back then dind't have /any/ help. Who knows, Bambaataa could have threatened him and probably get his family killed. A lot of fear was around those times and if someone like Bambaataa was the talk of the town and helped you when you were hungry (back then there was no food, no heat or hot water) then you are forced to deal with it. This is the sad truth, that I know people will try to turn around and sugar coat.
you've watched too many bad movies...
@@tellinthatruth840 bambaataa was FEARED especially Zulu Nation
this is some sad shit
@@tellinthatruth840 And you're defending a punk
Yup so true..they have no idea...and everyone handles it differently but fear and feeling unsafe is a nature response...it also comes with shame and guilt to say the least.
I'm praying for this man. You are a strong for coming out and telling your story. You're brave and now more men will come out!
Isiah
@Dalyo Thomas you replying to my comment from 5 years ago ? Really?! Plz go get a life!
This was from 2016, nearly 5 years later. Why haven't these stories gotten media interest? I wish this man, and all people preyed upon, justice and healing
It’s here now- 2024
@@ChildoVGoD78 Why do you say? Are they finally putting Bambaataa away?!!! God, I hope so.
I wish nothing but the best for Ronald Savage. He seems very genuine, and kind-hearted.
this is so sad, this is how a lot of men get turned out.
Yeah. :/
and then they swear they was born that way
JustLovely it means gay
Or become murderers
ask your husband 😂😂😂
this is so freakin sad 😞
+KAT AK i agree. he put on a nice suit just to tell a ugly lie;(
kills me. I been UZN since high school and it is sad. Bam was always talented but that doesn't excuse this

He's definitely speaking the truth... You can tell by his demeanor. Hopefully he gets the closure he needs 🙏🏼
He needs to be in jail!!!
for hearsay?
+BigBoss AndTheDoll if thats the case we might as well be livin in the stone ages cos they didnt have trials they just jailed them when people said shit! now honey think about your post

Look at your birth chat...if u have 8 house....u will go through some kind pain in this life....it is a PAST life thing......heaven and hell is a state of mind....
*HE IS ABSOLUTELY TELLING THE TRUTH! I'm so sorry.*
how you know
DO AWAY WITH THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS ON ALL RAPE & MOLESTATION CASES. As a victim of rape myself, I've JUST become comfortable to talk about my rape 20 YEARS LATER bcuz I was afraid of the SHAME & EMBARRASSMENT IT WOULD BRING MY FAMILY! It takes us YEARS to heal enough to tell even someone, why should we loose the ability to prosecute our attackers? #SupportTheVictims
For you people talking shit about Hip Hop, don't blame Hip Hop for the actions of one man or men! You forget that DJ Kool Herc is the father of Hip Hop and not Bam!
I totally agree with you and Africa did not start no damn hip hop.
Her knew it was going on too I the Vlad interview
@@d.i.g.i.t.a.l.9268You saying Kool Herc knew about Bambata??
hes nervous because hes talking about a respected hip hop figure in a way that people will see the real person. like i can tell this really happened to him omg and its so sad. molestors really rule the fuckin world yo
+Jasmine Williams This is sad but true. I am so tired of hearing these stories.
oh you can tell? lmao
Yup.
+G wow. Not everyone. Especially in our community, this isnt a normality in the beginning of hip hop.
+Treats and Threads youtube Poor delusional idiot....The only artists that WEREN'T in on that lifestyle are "has beens" as of today. Either you gone "get down" or get out....Plain & simple.
I'm a European dude. I fucking love Hip Hop and value it's origins. Bambaataa is one of the true founders. Legendary music history. This fucked me up. Just heard about this. It's obvious this guy is telling the truth. Heartbreaking. WTF.....Bambaataa is a pedophile? That's just disgusting and horrible.
Look it doesn't matter if your European or Negropean. This sh*t eff up anyway you cut it!
he abused victims in Europe. well assumptions are made. when I read it my mouth dropped
Sad eyes tell a true story. ..I can see it in his eyes.
I can't believe this video doesn't have over a million views. It says alot about the country we live in. People prefer dark secrets to be left in the dark. Smdh😥😥😥
You can tell this man is so wounded
There’s a statute of limitations on molestation but not when it came to the grown women in the Bill Cosby case that voluntarily went to the playboy mansion 🤦🏽♀️
You're a brave, strong man my friend.
Sooo sad. I'm lost for words 💔
So many people turn into predators but he didn’t that’s the blessing. I pray that his story heals. Men can be victims to.
Oh my Lord! This man is still in pain. I am tears right now.
I was "touched" if you will when I was young...I could see the 14yr old in his eyes, and I feel for him. My experience wasn't as such, courageous Beyond Brave man he is.#RESPECT
I BELIEVE THIS GUY GOD BLESS YOU MY BROTHER .
Sad where we can live in a society where evidence goes out the window.
Sad that people protect those in power.
+MiamiPush2theLimit evidence isn't protecting the powerful. EVIDENCE is protecting the powerless. As a black man I see my people incarcerated for crimes whites get tickets for. Because they cannot afford attorneys and their convictions isn't about EVIDENCE it's about race and evil.
what evidence? rumors allegations, hearsay? if thts evidence we're all in a lot of trouble
His actions his demeanor is the evidence.
@@kjersey6781 What actions?
Lord heal Ron's body, and heart. He need you right now in the name of Jesus!!!🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾❤ Bam will have his judgment day by God....and he will pay dearly!!!!!
What’s worst thing as being molested is when you have nobody who believes you..
I could relate to this man, I believe every single word that comes outta from his mouth about that sick twisted bastard Afrikaa.
We live in society that child molestation isn’t be taking seriously, but being excusable which it’s sick, especially in the families.
He mentally scared boy. You couldn’t get that scar out of your mind
Thank you for speaking up for yourself, Mister Ronald Savage.
I hate that it’s evil ppl who destroy children’s innocence my heart aches for him😢😢😰😰
Heartbreaking! I believe him.
Extremely brave for peaking his TRUTH!
Nonsuch thing as my truth. It's THE TRUTH.
keep your head up 🙏🙏
I'm sorry this happened to you...somebody should of been there to protect you!
I'm am so sorry you had to go through that kind of physical mental and emotional and psychological cal pain, thank you for sharing this to help others. YOU ARE LOVED
What's done in the dark will soon come to light! It's also quite obvious that Afrika Bambaataa has really pissed some peeps off within his "circled haven" to have such a scandal to finally, once again, come to light.
*_AFRIKA SANDUSKY_*
RTFO!
True real talk
His eyes tell the truth he looks so scared and Hassan Campbell said the same thing why isn’t afrika locked up yet
this is so sad. bambatta needs to be held accountable for the trauma he’s caused this man and more than likely other victims that just haven’t came out yet. i’m so appalled 😢
such courage. My heart goes out to him and all the others who have come forward. I can't even imagine what life has been like for this man. I'm so sorry that it happened to him and others around the world. But I commend him for coming forward and speaking. May God bless him the rest of the days of his life and give him peace and a mind of security. Amen!
I am so sorry for you having to go through this. I am very sorry.
Stay Strong Ronald I believe You...I'm sure their are way more victims...
I hear you LOUD and CLEAR Mr. Ronald Savage and I commend you for your courage and strong will. May you find peace and restoration in your justice.
It's crazy how when Ronald & Hassan reflect on Bambooty they both have slight smiles on their face & they say his name with energy, that PTSD ain't no joke!
dam hip hop keeps gettin weirder
nah the media does
💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙 *You are a survivor! I admire you. You are telling the absolute truth!! God and time heals all.* 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

thank you brotha ronald.let us all vibrate higher to gain a strength such as yours.and remember nobody is going to get away from judgement.peace and blessings.
He is in his 50s but his demeanor is almost like he is stuck in the 9th grade in that backroom traumatized.
I believe him
I don't believe him
Ronald Savage, your transparency is raw, real and greatly appreciated.
I believe him.
God bless you.....please stay strong ! so sad..............lost words
Afrika Bambooty
Africabamboosler !!! Those shades show his guilt he's trying desperately to bid from us and the world that don't play that BS with our kids you only have those quick moments in our lifespan to be young and innocent then we journey on to our man & womanhood and to have some shark come along and sabotage it with their sickness is just pure evil !!!
😆😆😆 afrika bambooooty 😂
Bee Stinger was a humble, kind dude. Very sad to see this.
Feel sorry for this brother. May he find peace within himself. Nobody deserves this.
Looks like Devin The Dude
hell yea. LMAO
I thought I was the only 1 saw that. Lmao
first runner-up in the Billy Ocean look a like contest
Devin looks way more happy than this guy.
+chain smoke records Moist devin with no weed version lmao
Thanks bruh for speaking out on a subject so hard to speak on being a victim myself at a very young age I understand stay strong 💪 we half too
Ohhhhhh my
freaking gosh.
This breaks my
heart on every level 💔😢🌺
Am so sorry for what you went through I was raped at 6 years old 1966 I still go through trails and tribulations in my life May god bless you and you are not alone staying strong and enjoy your life you deserve it Thank you for speaking about this sexual abuse God will always make life easier to deal with our future
Every time I look at this dude A.B. I always wonder why he wears dark sunglasses. I guess he didn't want people to see him checking out boys/ men. He a always gave me a sneaky vibe.
+NycBeauty when it comes down to it, you can't make presumptions based on what someone said without knowing if there is any truth to what he is saying. We don't have factual proof. And you can't just come to some conclusion based on what a person is wearing. That's just being ridiculous. Please don't ever serve on a jury.
This breaks my heart 💔😕 I hope he finds peace ❤️
He smiling while talking about bam
Heartbreaking 😿
Damn, how can people even pass any type of judgement on this man. Only people who know were there. Insane.
According to Melle Mel, the WHOLE rap community back in the day knew what Bam was doing to those young boys…. No one did a damn thing! Just a shame
Your very strong brotha for speaking your truth.I hope all good comes your way brotha💪
This guy is not lying😢
this some sick shit!!!
I pray that you find a way to heal brother
I wonder if people who have made negative comments about this man have ever heard of the saying, "put yourself in their shoes". Allah forbid a crime like this happens to you or a child in your family; would your reaction be the same?
He had no reason to lie.. There was no financial gain. Not to mention how traumatizing that is....
Support B stingers fight to do away with the fucked up statue of limitations in ny. Email and call law makers and the governor and demand it. Most men that are abused never come out and tell,and too many times they become monsters too. A man like B stinger is very rare. He is a good man that helps children and would NEVER hurt them. We need more men like him.
im saddened by this
I am back a year later to listen again.
It's 2021 and I'm just hearing about this but I'm praying for you Ronald.
I believe him. Base on how explain his interaction with other people and his partners, these are side effects that I experienced as adult, after two grown individual attempted to molest me as a child. I hope he heals one day. It's not his fault. Shame on that asshole Bambattaa.
shot97 broke this story
That's a fact. Anybody want more info they need to check The Star Chamber
no. Star did. Star gna expose Africka
+Sharp Shooter Star is doing a great job with his investigation and asking the right questions.
+Stupeaz yes sir
+Homeboy Chris StarSquad !! Allegedly !
Beyond heartbreaking 💔
I hope this man can find peace and heal these wounds somehow. Tremendously brave for him to speak on it.
😮... 2018 and much of what this man experienced is still happening smh
✊🏻💚💛❤️
I feel sorry for this man for what he went through but I applaud his courage for stepping up to the plate. Down with A. Bambatta, he should have to give up that name at this point.
You can see and hear the trauma.
The truth is all here because no one would go into detail in front of the world and display such embarrassment. I wish him well.
There shouldn’t be a statute of limitations, because this kind of trauma will affect you for your entire life. It permeates every aspect of every relationship you have after until you grasp and understand the fact that it wasn’t your fault and there’s nothing to be ashamed of which for some, never happens.
Those Black Swan Stunna Shades make his look HELLA sus.
+bootcheese i wish i owned a pair
He has absolutely no reason to lie especially when he’s giving explicit details. This was so tragic and devastating for this Man. A boy at 14yrs old, violated. The pressure he carried for so long, because he was conflicted and worried about his family. Listen, this is Not New News people. These rappers, athletes, actors and fake ministers, have been having boy parties for a very long time. Most of the time, the offender/molester group of Yes people, know what’s going on. All of them…Guilty and will have to pay the price. More Facts will be coming out from a lot of men…watch! R.Kelly aint the only one.
I agree, there should be NO statute of limitation on molestation and rape charges. It's a painful and traumatizing experience that affects people in different ways. And some folks need more time to get to the point where they can even talk about it.
Brother i wish you healing, I hope you never consider taking your life. The world needs you here…. Even at 50 i can feel your youthful innocence… You are a hero for coming forward… even though it’s killing you inside…
