Did Devante Swing On Missy, Timbaland and Ginuwine!?

Hazing is a frowned on underground accepted initiation that allegedly goes on in many organizations however was this an acceptable form of initiation in the music industry?

According to the man that everyone love to hate, Love and Hip Hop’s very own Stevie J physical abuse went on in the music industry and it was not acceptable to him, so much so that he says his words led to legendary history music makers to be brought to the forefront from behind the heavy hand of their abuser, Jodeci member Devante Swing.

In a podcast from 2 years ago that has made it’s easy to the surface:

Stevie J alleges that back in the day he witnessed Devante Swing walk into a NYC recording studio, and lined up soon to be music greats Missy Elliott, Timbaland and Ginuwine and went Nino Brown on them slapping the hell out of them one by one without any of them retaliating. At the time the trio was trying to break into the music industry under the thumb of one Devante Swing. According to Stevie J he told them they shouldn’t take that behavior out of him, then shortly after they went on to become music legends much great than Devante.

How crazy is that !!
