Carolyn Griffey Loser In USA Shalamar Trademark Challenge

The  USA government trademark and patent office snatched the wig and edges of Carolyn Griffey the Jody Watley wanna be who started flexing muscles posting taunts and threats for all Shalamar and Jody fans to see all across the web with her her besties Vijay Bhucar, Howard Hewitt, Jeffrey Daniels  "Shalamar" gang. The Griffey girl said she was "fighting for the truth" in her initiated "trademark wars"  and baby the truth was told, Miss Thing had no papers, no last will and testament from Death Rows Dick Griffey like old boy Hewitt went on shady ass Tom Joyner show bragging about.

Griffey, Hewett and Jeffrey Daniels also dropped a diss single called "The Real Thing" as if they was "the real Shalamar"  singing about a they got a brand name *rolls eyes* at the collective shade. Black grandmas and pops,aunties and uncles, old schoolers far and wide know darn well there was many Shalamars but the one with the hits that my Grannie will always hold dear is Jody, Jeffrey and Howard. My Grannie put me on them and other old school acts, I love me some Teddy Pendergrass and Al Green when I was coming up and we was at her house on the weekends.
I stans hard for the catwalk music queen Jody Watley since her petticoats and ankles boots rocker soul style girl turned me out. Jody made it cool to be different while my azz was navigating the mean streets of Compton. We all wanted to be and dress like Jody but dance like Janet and Michael on them steps like drill team.

Carolyn Griffey or Baldwin or whatever her  real name is files had nothing but Google Images, Youtube screen-saves and statements from some people that was on the old and gone Solar label hear-say according to the public records. I was surprised to read that Carolyn chick try to say Jody was never really in Shalamar just a singer for hire or something like that, say what now? The bish had her challenge terminated and dismissed.

Chile I'm happy for Miss Jody that she won the so called one sided "war" against her while none of us knew this was still going on for so long *sips a quiet tea*
Meanwhile, the Griffey step-daughter (what kind of ghetto ratchet mess is it when you not even the biological child and the daddy supposedly left it all to the step child not the wife or biollogical ones?) Gurl bye, no receipts. Carolyn Griffey will still be looking for her papers while Geraldo is still trying the find the body of Jimmy Hoffa.

Miss Jody mic drop statement but all she really had to say was "God don't like ugly." Go head Miss Jody!!

False Ads Still Plague Jody Watley in UK

False ad, bait and switch, the first with old photo with Jody and then the other with Griffey as if they are the same. So shady

We all know the tea that Mis Jody Watley secured the Shalamar trademark several years back, to get some control over the shady misuse of her likeness in the form of old photo's and video to help bamboozle old british fans clueless in drinking the ale of nostalgia and promoters and the goon squad of Hewett, Daniels and Griffey to make an extra dollar. Welp it seems like they are still at their old tricks while Miss Jody has seemingly decided to let it be. From an outsider the other three (Griffey who challenged Watley's registration and the USPTO still lists as pending, Jeffrey Daniels and Howard Hewett come off as desperate and bitter af. If you ever want to waste time, just listen to one of their interviews that they started doing after Jody's registration and how she's been marketing her new group. Shalamar Reloaded (which Miss Jody apparently registered as a name) after the growing popularity because us fans definitely know who's who in this group Hey Nate and Rosero! While Daniels is still trying to ride the wave of a forgotten dance move that Mister Jackson won an Emmy for over 30 years ago with some mega watt hits to back them up; and let's not forget my Aunt Terri's favorite group as a kid the Jackson 5.

I've also noticed the dragging of Jody in their interviews. Jeffrey Daniel saying "Oh, Jody saw what Howard and I were doing and decided to start her own Shalamar. She's suing us.." Where's the receipts? Jeffrey has also shaded Jody by stating "..Jody had a career." While the diva continues to tour and release quality choons and that clown is just dick riding Michael, Howard and the cross Griffey bosses daughter who collects her percentage. Jody's receipts, Open Letter

Just read Jody's Open Letter and back track to the trademark, she never planned to start a group but since the trademark called for it. to her credit the diva has always been up front in marketing her group, and invested her coins in new music and videos. The Daniels dude, with his fake accent and constant namedropping of being the teacher to Michael Jackson (since his death) is as believable as Steve Harvey's mustache. They all reak sour grapes on Jody.

Old photo's with Jody Watley

The thirst is real

Now in a new twist Howard Hewett and Carolyn Griffey are ditching Jeffrey Daniel for Micki Free for a concert in Detroit at Chene Park in August. These hoes ain't loyal. The shade of it all. We also peeped that some configuaration of them will be releasing a single in October while they go trying to recapture the glory years of the Friends album, labeled their biggest tour yet while making sure to throw shade on Jody in the bio..and by the way when did Shalamar sell 25 million albums? Trump fake facts ya heard. People will beleive anything these days.

Using an old video, bait and switch. Caroyln Griffety in not Miss Jody and they keep talking about how great they are for the past 15 years, but keep going back to old ish with my girl peep the A Night to Remember video  https://prestonguildhall.co.uk/shows/shalamar/

Yet and still Miss Jody is the one who usually gets dragged by bitter old fans and old disco disco deejays. I got blocked on Facebook for pointing out some of this.

Jody Watley Calls Out Howard Hewett, Jeffrey Daniel and Unsung on Lies

Miss Jody Watley had time for it all. Never known to be one from shying away from speaking her mind, she did that and more in response to the recent airing of the Howard Hewett Unsung episode. They tried it with the shade on Miss Jody again and she was not here for it with no fuks given came for all the scalps and edges with a mack load of receipts.

My mouth is still on the floor soaking up all the tea she brought including the recent friendly email exchanges with Howard and Jeffrey but yet The one they call "The Voice" has been on airwaves plugging airtime using it to bash Jody and the flat out lie as if they never talked. That Dick Griffey man saying to Howard "Your vacation is finished, you'll sing what I tell you, when I tell you and with who, and my daughter will fly business class" I was gagging while reading the Griffey dude demand the only woman they could sing with in Shalamar since 2001 was his daughter. While him and Jeffrey do the struggle backslide to coach and still follows orders long after ole boy is six feet under! Chyle Howard and Jeffrey's balls got chopped off with a jagged knife.

It didn't stop there, she took all of us back to the 90's and the whole she won't do a reunion with us mess and took time to show how she was being harrassed by bitter fans who blindly take Hewett's mouth as a prayer book. Whoe knew they did a song together and was negotiating for an album?!! Back up old school heads, Miss Jody Watley is about the business and not here for the foolishness. She also reminded everyone why she is who she is, not Unsung, not bitter, not mad. The same crooner who let some chick do his time by saying I do needs to get over it and that dancer dude still jocking Mike's nuts over the "moonwalk." Note to him, Michael won the Emmy in 1983 for the Motown 25th,  let it go boo boo.

Those geeezers need to give it up and just keep on giving their coins to the wanna be, who will never be Jody. Them Brits are guillible af how they was pulling that fake shit off before Jody got the trademark and pulled them thirsty garden tools out of the closet. Some people will do anything for a busted penny. Them fools could have done what Jody did, research that shit instead they went for the kool-aid.

The shade of this picture it's deniable though Jody is still that chick, she put them all on blast

Jody Watley Open Letter  Sip the  TEA

Shalamar featuring Howard Hewett, Jeffrey Daniel and Carolyn Griffey Splash Into California Cancellation

Fresh off his his Unsung Howard Hewett or better yet Unsung Shalamar Part 2, why they keep saying Jody did no reunions when she did? The shade of it all.  Chyle Miss Jody girl call your lawyers.


Anywhoo seems the quote unquote greatest soul singer of all time and "voice" of Shalamar with the moonwalk king (is that still even a thing?) and the woman who claims to have some paperwork making Shalamar her thang Griffey couldn't pack him in at the California waterslide park "Splash Kingdom." Not a good showing in America, seems like they were trying to come for Jody and her hot ass Shalamar Reloaded who play to packed houses and rave reviws, well the Hewett,Griffey led Shalamar have bombed twice now once with the debacle up in Concord and now this.

Funny thing is they are quiet as church mouses by not mentioning the show was cancelled on their Fakebook page called "Shalamar Friends" You know they say God don't like ugly, but I guess they do in the UK because they posted some more dates there. "Due to unforeseen circumstances" like tickets not selling after it was pushed back August 13 to September 3.

Howard Hewett and Shalamar Friends Flop in Concord

After weeks of "California Here We Come " Get Ready" the trio of Howard Hewett, Jeffrey Daniel and Carolyn Griffey billed as "Shalamar" made it to Concord, CA appearing at the KBLX Stone Soul 2016. It was a curious choice. They went with ole boy Hewett who has not one big hit other than a gospel "Say Amen" with Jeffrey who we haven't see since he was a backing dancer for Michael Jackson and the Jody Watley on steroids wanna be who goes as "baby girl" but gives you Jack Lalanne in his 90's with a  bad wig and and enough wrinkles to make a road map from here to eternity. Why not Jody Watley who has a ton of her own hits and the hot hot Shalamar Reloaded?

I don't know the trademark law, it's not my wheelhouse but it judging from basics, it had to be infrigement to Jody Watley and a heap of old school shade from her former group mates and the old label head who says "Shalamar belongs to me". Anywho, in the shade of it all and the zeal to show Miss Jody a thing a two Karma kameloen had something else in mind. Pearls were clutched when Shalamar Reloaded tipped the teacup up by making it clear it was not the Watley group laying dying onstage up in Concord. Jeffrey Daniel doing a 'struggle moonwalk"  Chyle, guess those old blokes in the Uk don't know a good show and accept any ole nostalgia thang!

Jody Watley Legal Team Shuts Down Infringement Stone Soul Concert in Concord

A week ago the an announcement swept northern Cali announcing "Shalamar featuring Howard Hewett." It's been well documented the past year, original member Jody Watley registered the non registered mark with the USPTO to put an end to false and misleading ads. Howard Hewett, self proclaimed owner of Shalamar Carolyn Griffey and Jeffrey Daniel although working in the U.K. had not played a U.S. date in recent memory.
If anyone knows trademark and copyright law it's nothing to the toyed with, and it appears Hewett, Griffey and Daniels along with KBLX got served.

They tried it.

A week later..the ad. We guess they got served. Seems to us they should have had it like this in the first place knowing Watley has the paperwork.

The only original member of this bunch Jeffrey Daniel is reduced to minor billing.

We also got our hands on these emails entered in to Carolyn Griffey's challenge to Jody Watley's registration. It seems as though Hewett and Daniels had been working for Dick Griffey handing over a hefty 30% from concert revenue as well as being told how the daughter Carolyn Baldwin would be put into the group with a demand she fly business. We wonder did that mean the guys were coach?

Dick Griffey has some choice words for Hewett, and give his not so subtle thoughts on the lack of value of singers and the final "The Look" album he admittedly handed over to Hewett. It's all public record, and we can't wait for the Jody Watley movie is all we know. At least she never returned to work under the Griffey clan/  Hewett and Daniels seem to be OK with not being in charge and working under the daughter who proclaims Shalamar is her group.

Watley has always remained mumm on all of this while the others have gone out of their way to bring her down and give out misinfo.

Jody Watley Puts End To False Advertising.

A false ad from 209, Jody Watley's name is replaced with that of Griffey..the photo used is from Three For Love  album of 1980 of which Griffey had no part.

A false ad from 2011, Jody Watley's name is replaced with that of Griffey..the photo used is from The Look album of 1983 of which Griffey had no part.

A false ad from 2011, Jody Watley's name is replaced with that of Griffey..the photo used is from The Look album of 1983 of which Griffey had no part.

Cartoon image promoting a tour, no names, no images definitely misleading 2012 ad for the UK.

2014.

Jody Watley's mission was accomplished  or so it seems.

For the most part, the efforts of Jody Watley in registering the Shalamar trademark at the least succeeded in putting an end to the false and misleading ad practices of Howard  Hewett, Jeffrey Daniel and Carolyn Griffey who for years performed concerts in the U.K. using false and misleading practices. In some instances, Jody Watley's name was removed from photographs that featured her likeness from her era in Shalamar with Hewett and Daniels and replaced with that of Griffey in a bizarre attempt to make consumers believe Griffey to be the original female lead. Bizarre. See for yourself from the screen saves and compare with recent ads for Griffey, Hewett and Daniels in the U.K


Since all this developed, Watley has since moved on to form her own group, Shalamar Reloaded, a name that caught on after many sold out shows across America. They are said to be working on more new music and not wanting to get stuck in the new version of an old disco group box.

Jody Watley, never one to bite her tongue responds to false allegations and harassment in a powerful blog in response to former Shalamar colleague Howard Hewett and on air morning show personality Tom Joyner.

Watley continues to be reluctant to be drawn into drama manufactured by others, but had to speak out to this.

The line was drawn with the latest round of false allegations designed to undermine her legal trademark rights and success with launching the new Shalamar, as well attempts to damage her reputation. In a poignant essay Watley recalls being bullied as a child, and recalls how she was raised to have self-worth and value. She talks about misuse of her likeness and potential damages as a result a catalyst which led her to look deeper into the trademark before applying to the USPTO under legal advisement. Nothing illegal whatsoever, more like sour grapes from others.
