Shekinah Jo Spills Tea on Tiny Leaving Her Out to Dry, Allegedly
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Prince Williams / Getty Seems like the days of Tiny and Shekinah giggling like teenagers on a tandem bike are long gone. Over the weekend, the Atlanta-based hairstylist, Shekinah Jo, took to a live stream on Bigo and aired all of the Harris’ business out. Well, Tiny’s more than anyone else’s but it was still just as sad. It’s always pretty disappointing — and awkward in a sense — to see two friends go at it online but with the recent legal issues T.I. and Tiny have had, this is probably the worst time to have former homies saying anything that would go against the defense.
