Update: A representative for Kevin Samuels family has spoken out, saying the friend claiming Kevin Samuels died in a precarious financial position is lying.
The representative also said that the family will NOT be setting up a GoFundMe, because it is not necessary.
They announced that they will be holding a private memorial service for Kevin.
Kevin Samuels was a popular Black online image consultant and widely credited with coining the phrase “high value man.” The term high-value man as it is commonly used today refers to a man of financial means and social influence. The term alone isn’t new or problematic in that society has always placed a higher value on wealthy men.
But Kevin often used the term “high value man” to troll Black women into believing that they didn’t have what it took to get a man in that category.
