For those who don’t know, Motown founder, Berry Gordy’s, 41 year old son, Redfoo (birth name: Stefan Kendal Gordy) and a 30 year old grandson, SkyBlu a.k.a. 8ky (birth name: Skyler Austen Gordy) formed a very successful rap duo called LMFAO. They’ve sold about 9.7 million records, have OVER a BILLION views on Youtube just ONE of their music videos for their hit song, “Party Rock Anthem,” but a few years ago they had beef and suddenly separated. Their fans never knew why until now.
SKY BLU CALLS PUBLICLY CALLS OUT HIS UNCLE, REDFOO IN OPEN LETTER
Sky Blu wrote an open letter to call out his uncle, Redfoo, online after what he says was years of being silent out of respect for their family. He now says Redfoo has gone too far and wants all of his fans to know why LMFAO has broken up, what his uncle has done to him, and why he is now a solo artist. So here are parts of what he said :
- Sky Blu says Redfoo’s ego got out of control after their multi-platinum music success
- Redfoo is getting called out by Sky Blu for allegedly robbing him out of his royalty money
- Sky Blu expresses how saddened and disappointed he is that his own uncle (Redfoo), whom he looked up to, treat him so badly
- Sky Blu bashes Redfoo for allegedly not staying true to music, but allowing the record label to come between them over money
- Prior to now, Sky Blu didn’t want to say anything about he and Redfoo’s tension, out of respect for their family
- Now Sky Blu says he’s ready to stand up for himself against uncle Redfoo and make a name on his own with music that he says represents the real him without being pressured to solely try to the 13-25 year old demographic, which is what he says Redfoo and the record label repeatedly go after.
