Last week R&B singer / songwriter Al B. Sure spoke out against the alleged Kim Porter Diary for sale on Amazon, calling the alleged memoir calculated fiction and fabricated BS [click here if you missed that].
Now Al has sent the publisher and the seller a notice to cease and desist...

Amazon and the mysterious publisher of a sketchy book claiming to be the late Kim Porter’s memoir have been sent a cease-and-desist letter from Porter’s ex, singer Al B Sure!
The left-field best-seller claims the “Nite and Day” singer — born Albert Joseph Brown III — engaged in saxual relations with Porter and another of her exes, Sean “Diddy” Combs.
Sure! is now trying to block the tome’s sale.
The book, “Kim’s Lost Words,” was self-published under the pseudonym “Jamal T. Millwood” — a name conspiracy theorists have said is the alias of deceased rapper Tupac Shakur — on Amazon this month by a man whose real name is Todd Christopher Guzze.
Guzze – along with Amazon’s Jeff Bezos and CEO Andy Jassy — were sent the cease-and-desist by Robert J. Hantman, a lawyer for Sure!, on Friday.
Sure! is claiming in the letter that he has been “defamed by false and malicious statements published,” and wants sales halted.
The letter also states, “Should you fail to comply with these demands within ten days, we will have no alternative but to pursue all legal remedies available, including filing a lawsuit for defamation.”
The book is currently a best-seller on Amazon, and the letter claims it, “falsely portrays Mr. Brown as engaging in fabricated saxual conduct, particularly with Sean Combs and the mother of his son, Quincy.”
The letter adds: “By misrepresenting his personal life and fabricating serious, false accusations of inappropriate saxual behavior, these defamatory claims have caused significant damage to Mr. Brown’s reputation.”
Sure! tells Page Six, “The part with me, I have nothing to do with any activity of that nature,” he says. “It’s the most disgusting, heinous lie I have ever heard of in my life.”
The letter is demanding that the author stop selling the book, and issue a public apology that, “must be clear, unequivocal, and widely circulated.”

He should have married her.
They were married, for two years.
We need to change the law and make it to where you cannot profit from LYING on the dead. All books, documentaries, and movies presented as truth must be TRUE! Better yet you must have permission to write about others.
I don't believe they were ever married. He claims they were but he's never proved it and no one has ever presented a marriage license.
That would mean Al has H!v like Diddy and Jay z. He should be the one who needs to sue the dust off of P dirty and that fake writer.
You guys are exhausting. They were married 1989-1990. They had Quincy in 1991. He is the youngest of his 3 kids who are in the industry.
Well, I got my copy.
