WERQ IT ~ Epsilon Chapter of Zeta Tau Alpha




Well if you haven’t heard about the Step Off Drama . . . Babe, go get your favorite teacup, cause B’wood is about to spill the T.

Ummm, Hmmm . . . sho’ nuff is.

Now my sistah’s were about to whip out the Vaseline and take off their Ghetto Door-Knocker earrings and "WHIP SOME ASS" over the controversial decision regarding the all-white Epsilon chapter of Zeta Tau Alpha out of Arkansas, and Tau Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha.

Now come closer . . . Look-ah fam’ I ain’t yellin’ today . . . COME HERE!

Alright, see Epsilon chapter of Zeta Tau Alpha out of Arkansas, initially took 1st place in the Ryan Cameron/Sprite Step Off Finals held here in Atlanta, GA at the Atlanta Civic Center.

However, some Brotha’s and Sistah’s especially our Black Sorors weren't having that sh*t.

HELL TO THA NAW!

They better get it right and have a mutha freakin’ recount. . . YES MA'AM!

Well according to the Queen of Blog ~ Ms. Sandra Rose.com this is how it all went down:

“This video sparked a storm of controversy as soon as it hit the nets. Black sorors complained bitterly that MTV (and their sponsor, Coca Cola which distributes Sprite) wanted a step crew that was more in line with their targeted demographics.
It was whispered in certain circles that the decision had already been made about the winner before the competition had even began.

Well, to quiet such rumors (and to appease the media who began making inquiries), Coca-Cola announced that due to a scoring discrepancy in the sorority results, the second place winners, the Tau Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha, Inc. from Indiana University, would be recognized as co-winners and awarded the same $100,000 prize as Zeta Tau Alpha.

I don’t have to tell you that the Alpha Kappa Alpha girls are Black.

Here’s my take on the subject: Coca-Cola shouldn’t have caved in to the pressure. The Zeta Tau Alpha girls should have been the sole winners because they stayed true to the historical traditions of stepping and call & response, while the AKA chicks acted like the Step Off was a dance competition.”

SideBar ~ Ms. Sandra Rose . . . G’rrrrrl, I couldn’t say it better myself. I mean let’s be real The Zeta Tau Alpha girls brought their "A" game, brought that ol' school style and technique, then drop it low. I mean they scrubbed the floor and err’thang.

Now don’t get me wrong B’wood is so in love with the illustrious Ladies of Alpha Kappa Alpha Incorporated, but, Ladies I must say you took second place this time around.

Now once again for GP and Damage Control . . . B’wood still got luv for ya’ll, but, "Skee-Wee" not this time!

  1. Those white girls stepped they asses off.. They gave me what I've always known stepping to be because a lot of our sororities and faternities have gotten away from that true essence of stepping... And from seeing this if they won the deserved to because they came with it.. I hate when our people claim racial discrimination in something when someone...

  3. That’s so true, if only n*ggas could put all the bitching towards something of good use like Health care. But the things is the White Girls were scripted to win anyway, kinda like how they do the show made.
