I agree Kevin kept it real. The brotha was/is DEEP!!! And they haven't been able to find anyone like him...or they don't want to show the world positive, non-shallow(if that's a word) brothas like Kevin. Mohammed was close, but he is still not Kevin.
Two observations...
Segun is two-steps aways from being gay!
And..Malik bears a striking resemblance to Prince(the early years), remember the album cover of Prince with the big afro and the hazel/green eyes....

I'll have to agree with people and say that Kevin from New York was the bomb! He came to my school a couple of years ago, and he was still holding it down.
As for Mohammed from San Francisco, that was my guy! They never gave him much air-time and that's because he was basically drama-free! (They love to give air time to the people of color who have crazy drama!) He (Mo) was a positive black man doing his thang, and I loved that.
As far as Segun on the casting special, I didn't get any vibes that he was gay. I got the impression that yes, he was heavily into his appearance. But I know quite a few heterosexual men like that, too. Segun was just a "pretty boy." Even if you don't think he's that attractive, that's just how he carried himself. And while it is true that maybe he took it to the extreme (lotion gloves!), I can appreciate a brotha who cares about his appearance. And just because he was into his appearance, does not mean that folks should assume he's gay. I don't know, that's just me. *shrug*
I like Malik too. I am not diggin' his blow-out afro look, but he is cute.

He seems like he will be one of those positive men of color with some actual substance.
I could go on and on about the Real World, but I won't.
