Over the weekend, singer and rapper, Doja Cat broke the Internet as she celebrated her birthday.

Last night, when I was in a sleepy haze, I saw a tweet that woke me up. That tweet was of Doja Cat’s naked breasts. And what a sight it was!

Now, I am not one of those guys that has never seen a pair of breasts before. However, if you are acting as if seeing those your cats, mammary glands is just like seeing someone else’s, then you are a natural born fool.

Doja Cat is one of the weirdest people in music today, but she is also one of the sexiest and most talented musicians to. There’s always something magical about seeing a superstar of that caliber naked.

Well, she promised to do it on her 27th birthday, and she delivered. What’s so funny is that she didn’t even have pictures herself and asked for people to send her direct messages of herself nude. She just wanted to repost and spread the love. By the way, it was a sex party a-la Eyes Wide Shut party, according to reports.

So, it seems to be my duty to help her amplify the message. The only thing is, this is a rated PG situation, and I cannot post the naked pictures in full. What I can do is give you some direction and also some idea of what happened.

Doja Cat has been a very polarizing figure, but I think I am about ready to forgive her. Check out the pictures and let me know what you think in the comment section.

By the way, others were there too like Dreezy, Ariana Grande and Normani.

Bieber was there too.

Norman showed off what she was working with.

Kanye West’s Jewish Divorce Lawyers Leave Him Too

Kanye West has lost an essential part of his team over his antisemitic, and horrible George Floyd comments: his divorce lawyers.

His remarks about Floyd being on drugs and not dying because of Derek Chauvin kneeling on him and his saying he was going to go “death con 3 on Jewish people,” have made a lot of people cut ties including Justin Bieber, Vogue, Balenciaga, Gap, Adidas and so many more.

For his consistent ranting about Jewish people, he was kicked off both Twitter and Instagram.

Now, the former billionaire’s JEWISH divorce attorneys Bernard Clair and Bob Cohen from the prestigious New York Cohen Clair Lans Griefer Thorpe & Rottenstreich LLP are parting ways.

Kanye hired the two lawyers to assist in the matters of his divorce from Kim Kardashian, the mother of his children, after four other legal firms left him in a year and a half.

The couple was declared legally single in March of 2022.

But the couple remains in dispute over the finances and custody of their four kids, North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm, which lawyers are needed for.

A source close to the company told Page Six on Monday, October 24th, said: “The firm is no longer representing Kanye West.”

Jaylen Brown Explains Why He Is Still Signed to Ye’s Donda Sports Agency

Sure, it seems like the world is turning its back on rapper-turned-designer Ye. But not everyone is.

Jaylen Brown from the Boston Celtics is standing by his guy and sticking beside Yeezy as a client signed to the rapper’s Donda Sports agency roster.

On Monday, October 24th, Brown said in an interview with the Boston Globe that he was sticking with the agency despite the current controversy.

“The reason why I signed with Donda Sports, it represented education, it represented activism, disruption,” the baller said. “It represented single-parent households, and a lot more people are involved in something like that.”

He added, “A lot of people that I work with, work with their families, build love and respect for, spending time in the summer. A lot of people involved. That’s what the organization from my vantage point from Donda Sports represented.”

The other person signed to Yeezy’s sports agency is Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald. He has yet to make a statement about his status with the agency.

As rostered clients, Donda represents the two and their marketing and business interests outside the sports they play. Donda will not be representing their sports contracts with their respective leagues.

Several brands have parted ways and ended friendships with Kanye, including Gap, Adidas, Balenciaga, and Vogue.

Kanye West Is No Longer A Billionaire After Losing Adidas Deal

By: Houston Williams Updated Category: Opinion

Forbes.

It looks like Kanye West just lost one. 1 billion!

After a slew of antisemitic comments, as well as anti-Black remarks, he has lost his deal with Adidas. And losing that deal with Adidas, he has also lost his billionaire status.

According to Forbes, the company that also anointed him a billionaire to begin with, said he is no longer a billionaire. Ye has been with Adidas since 2013, nearly 10 years. They have promoted his expensive Yeezy line of sneakers and made a ton of money to boot.

The company announced today that they will lose nearly $250 million in this quarter alone after dropping Kanye West and his Yeezy line. By the way, they owned the intellectual property that Kanye was working through. So it’s possible that they will continue with the Yeezy line even after their deal is done, I am being told. (FYI: I have also seen reports that say he could take Yeezy elsewhere or release it himself.) Kanye bragged, “The thing about it being Adidas I can say antisemitic things and Adidas can’t drop me … now what … now what.”

What? They dumped him and still own it. Crazy.

Anyway, Kanye West, challenged Adidas to drop him, almost like a dare. And they did.

Most people know by now that Adidas was founded by two brothers that were Nazis. The other brother went on to start Puma. So there was a tremendous amount of pressure for them to drop him, and their stock had already dropped considerably since his rant.

The Adidas deal was worth of reported $1.5 billion, calculated off years of earnings. Forbes, with their experts, looked at the royalties and earnings from this deal, similar to music or film residual income. They said that the Adidas money could be sold off, similar to a catalog of a recording artist.

Forbes maintains that without Adidas, Kanye is worth about $400 million. This estimate is based on real estate, liquid, cash, music catalog, on minority stake in Kim Kardashian‘s, Shapeware company, and other sources.

Kanye maintained that he was always worth well more than 1 billion, maintaining he was worth roughly $3,000,000,000. He disputed the Forbes account.

He also maintained that his Adidas partnership was worth $4.3 billion. Regardless, he is no longer worth $1 billion, whether he wants to believe that or not.

Now some people are going to maintain that this is more lies. But they believed it when he was proclaimed a billionaire by the very company that now says he is not. I’m not here to dispute or validate the Forbes list, but it does seem to be the gold standard.

By the way, Kanye has started to post on Parler, the Right Wing social media platform that was once owned by Candace Owens’ husband. Strange times we’re in, my friends.

“What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?,” he said quoting the Bible.

What’s the answer to the question.

Moscow Court Rejects Brittney Griner’s Drug Conviction Appeal; WNBA Star Finally Speaks

By: Kershaw St. Jawnson Updated Category: News

It seems that Brittney Griner will be serving her complete nine-year sentence in a Russian jail after the communist nation’s court rejected the appeal of her drug possession conviction on Tuesday, October 25th.

On the other hand, according to the Associated Press, it might just be a ploy to get the White House to engage in a “high-stakes prison swap” between countries.

As reported by AllHipHop.com, the U.S. basketball player, who is an eight-time all-star center with the WNBA’s Phoenix Mercury and two-time Olympic gold medalist, was convicted over the summer of drug charges after she tried to board a plane at Moscow’s Sheremetyevo Airport to exit the country with a couple of vape canisters with cannabis oil (which is illegal in the country).

She did not deny having the vapes but said she accidentally packed them in her bag, rushing to catch her flight. In addition, she said in America, she had been prescribed cannabis to treat her chronic pain. 

Her legal team presented written statements from her medical professionals— still it didn’t fly with the Big Reds.

“I’ve been here almost eight months, and people with more severe crimes have gotten less than what I was given. I want to also apologize for this mistake, and I said in my first part, that, yes I pleaded guilty. I did not intend to do this, but I understand the charges brought against me. And I just hope that that is also taken into account too as well, that I did guilty,” Brittney Griner said from her cell during the court hearing.

The 32-year-old baller did not appear live in the Moscow Regional Court but was zapped in via video from the penal colony where she is being held outside the capital. She spoke on her situation from behind bars.

Griner has been sentenced to close to the max of 10 years, basically ending her career as a player and compromising her financial stability.

Her lawyers reviewed the average sentence for such a crime, and it is nearly half the sentence, and almost 1/3 of those convicted for the crime have been granted parole. 

They claim her sentencing is excessive, and many in the public add she is being used in an international game of political chess.

Let’s hope this is not a stalemate.

Lil Baby Charts 25 Songs Simultaneously On The Hot 100

Not only does Lil Baby have the #1 album in the country, but the Atlanta-bred rhymer also controls ¼ of the current Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Lil Baby managed to land 25 songs on this week’s Hot 100. His “California Breeze” single opened at #4 on the rankings. Baby scored Top 10 entries for “Forever” featuring Fridayy (#8) and “Real Spill” (#10) as well.

Three tracks off Lil Baby’s It’s Only Me studio LP also presently occupy the Top 20. “Pop Out” with Nardo Wick started at #15. “In a Minute” rose 24 spots to #16. “Never Hating” with incarcerated rap star Young Thug debuted at #19.

Plus, Lil Baby controls an additional four positions in the Top 40 region. The 27-year-old southerner’s “Heyy” (#21), “Stand On It” (#22), “Not Finished” (#26), and “Perfect Timing” (#32) are all among the 40 most-popular songs in America.

Lil Baby Makes History

According to ChartData, Baby became the youngest music act in history to have at least 25 songs chart on the Hot 100 at the same time. The Quality Control rapper only joins Drake and Taylor Swift on the list of artists to achieve that feat.

The music history books added another new milestone, thanks to Lil Baby. The star born Dominique Armani Jones surpassed Nicki Minaj for seventh place on the all-time rankings of most entries on the Hot 100 with 132 songs. He has the most entries for 2022 (39) too.

Lil Baby also made some personal history this week with his latest full-length body of work. His It’s Only Me album racked up 216,000 first-week units. That sales total is the highest opening week of Baby’s career.

Baby Scored His Third No. 1 Album With It’s Only Me

In addition to Fridayy, Nardo Wick, and Young Thug, It’s Only Me also features Future, Rylo Rodriguez, Jeremih, EST Gee, and Pooh Shiesty. Baby’s third studio LP follows 2018’s Harder Than Ever and 2020’s chart-topping My Turn.

The Voice of the Heroes by Lil Baby and Lil Durk also hit #1 on the Billboard 200 in 2021. That collaborative project came after Baby teamed with fellow Atlanta native Gunna for the 2018 joint effort Drip Harder.

Lil Baby and Gunna earned an RIAA Diamond Award (10 million units) for the Drip Harder single “Drip Too Hard.” The RIAA also named My Turn the Top Album of 2020. My Turn crossed the 4x-Platinum mark in February 2022.

Aubrey Drake Graham celebrated his 36th birthday on October 24. The international superstar likely got an unexpected present from one of his followers known as Fake Drake.

A social media personality once known as IzzyDrake informed his Instagram followers of his name change. Apparently, the real Drake’s OVO company requested Fake Drake to drop the moniker and stop using the brand’s trademarked material.

“Happy birthday to the greatest artist in history and my biggest inspiration. I got this cease and desist letter from OVO [a] couple days ago and as a respectful b-day gift to @champagnepapi I changed my name from IzzyyDrake to Izzyyfamous🎈🎉,” wrote the aspiring musician on Instagram.

The supposed correspondence read, in part, “This letter serves as a notice of your unauthorized use of the trademark, ‘OVO’ to promote your brand and likeness, as well as your unauthorized fabrication of media which is Per Se damaging and defamatory to our brand. Your conducted actions are unwarranted, unwelcome, and inacceptable.”

It continued, “In addition, this shall serve as a pre-suit letter demanding that you provide us written assurance within 7 days that you will cease and desist from making any further factually untrue statements involving OVO Sound and/or Drake, and that you will no longer fabricate media that portrays the aforementioned Trademarks.”

Before dropping the Drake part of his name, IzzyDrake released a song titled “Letter To Drizzy” in September. This year also saw the release of Izzy Drake’s “Attack of the Clones” featuring Perkioo aka Fake Lil Durk.

Adidas Drops Kanye But Keep Yeezy Name, Designs And Colorways

By: AllHipHop Staff Updated Category: News
Preferred Source Publisher Button>

Adidas bosses have terminated their partnership with Kanye West over his recent antisemitic remarks.

Over the course of this month, the “Stronger” rapper has made a string of divisive and offensive comments about Jewish people on social media and during interviews.

On Tuesday, a representative for the German sportswear giant issued a statement in which they confirmed they had cut ties with West as a result of his behavior.

“Adidas does not tolerate antisemitism and any other sort of hate speech. Ye’s recent comments and actions have been unacceptable, hateful and dangerous, and they violate the company’s values of diversity and inclusion, mutual respect and fairness,” they commented. “After a thorough review, the company has taken the decision to terminate the partnership with Ye immediately, end production of Yeezy branded products and stop all payments to Ye and his companies. Adidas will stop the Adidas Yeezy business with immediate effect.”

Established in 2015, the collaboration between the label and West was highly lucrative for both parties, with the Yeezy Boost sneaker ranges proving to be particularly popular.

As part of the statement, an Adidas spokesperson assured investors that the move will have a “short-term negative impact” on the company’s net income.

They also maintained that the brand is the “sole owner” of all design rights to existing products as well as previous and new colourways under the partnership.

Kanye West has not yet commented on the decision.

Adidas Severs All Ties With Kanye West

Retail sports company Adidas has ended its partnership with Kanye West, after a slew of antisemitic comments were made by the billionaire rap artist.

The German-based company said that it has severed all ties with Ye. Adidas said it estimates losing $246.5 million this year alone for discontinuing their business relationship with the artist.

“Ye’s recent comments and actions have been unacceptable, hateful and dangerous, and they violate the company’s values of diversity and inclusion, mutual respect and fairness,” the company said in a statement.

Adidas will end the partnership, all production of Yeezy branded products, and even stop payment to all of his companies immediately.

Adidas shares had slumped almost 5%, a low since 2016.

The partnership between the sports merchandise company and the artist was already strained, prior to the antisemitic comments. However, public scrutiny and criticism took its toll.

Lil Baby Addresses Alleged Photo Of Saweetie Sitting On His Lap

By: Yohance Kyles (@HUEYmixwitRILEY) Updated Category: News

The rumored rivalry taking place in the Quality Control Music camp could be bubbling over to the public. Several pictures, songs, and interviews have entangled Lil Baby, Quavo, Offset, Saweetie, and Cardi B into a web of cheating speculation.

A photo posted last year by Saweetie had the internet questioning if the “My Type” performer left her relationship with Quavo to link up with his labelmate Lil Baby. Then Quavo hinted at the situation on the Only Built for Infinity Links album with Takeoff.

“I said, Caresha please, ’cause she too messy. B#### f##### my dawg behind my back, but I ain’t stressing. You wanted the gang, you shoulda just said it, we would have blessed it,” raps Quavo on the “Messy” track.

At first, there was speculation that Quavo’s bars were about his Migos groupmate and Cardi B’s husband Offset. Migos seemingly parted ways before Only Built for Infinity Links dropped which had a lot of people wondering what led to the split.

However, there was also evidence to suggest Quavo penned those “Messy” lines about Lil Baby, not Quavo. For example, Quavo used the phrase “my dawg” in the song. Previously, he appeared on the remix of “My Dawg” by Lil Baby.

In November 2021, Saweetie shared a photo of herself sitting on a man’s lap. Social media users began pointing out that the guy in the picture had on a very similar outfit to Lil Baby. Then Baby released his It’s Only Me album and the rumor mill lit up again.

It’s Only Me‘s “Stand On It” features Lil Baby rapping, “I don’t want your b####, we can’t swap out.” That message from Baby appeared to be a response to Quavo’s Instagram Story post in 2021. At the time, the Georgia native wrote, “Ain’t tripping. We can swap it out! #QCTheLabel.”

Someone has now directly questioned Lil Baby about the Saweetie situation. In a preview for an upcoming interview with the Big Facts podcast, Big Bank asked Baby if he was the man in that viral picture with Saweetie.

“Nah,” answered Lil Baby before laughing with the Big Facts hosts. Big Bank also suggested it must be hard living Lil Baby’s lifestyle because of rumors being connected to his name. The Grammy winner replied, “I do have to like, move a certain way because of that, and I be trying my best.”

Tamika Mallory Claims Kanye West Is Upset Because He Lost Kim Kardashian

By: Yohance Kyles (@HUEYmixwitRILEY) Updated Category: News

Has Kanye “Ye” West’s recent scorched-earth media run been a reaction to losing his wife? Social justice advocate Tamika Mallory suggests the Donda album creator is acting out over Kim Kardashian.

Kanye West continues to lose business and personal relationships because of his extremely controversial comments. However, he has gained the support of white supremacists, white nationalists, and Neo-Nazis.

The 45-year-old billionaire falsely implied unarmed African-American George Floyd died from a fentanyl overdose and not from a police officer’s excessive force. Ye also threatened to go “death con 3” on the Jewish community.

Tamika Mallory made an appearance on Brutally Honest with Jasmine Brand. The Fox Soul show included Mallory sharing her thoughts on the controversy surrounding Kanye West at the moment.

“I think that Kanye is upset because he lost his woman. He’s trying to weaponize other communities to help him fight his personal battle,” Tamika Mallory told celebrity blogger Jasmine Brand.

Mallory continued, “In one of the clips from the recent interview he did on Drink Champs he said, ‘If y’all don’t want me to wear White Lives Matter t-shirt, then the culture should get behind me, when they take my child, the culture should get behind me.’”

The 2017 Women’s March co-chair added, “So now you’re saying that we should be involved in your custody issues, your family business. How many Black men has Kanye helped that can’t see their children? What is he involved in?” 

After getting married in 2014, Kanye West and reality television star Kim Kardashian publicly separated in 2021. Kardashian began dating comedian Pete Davidson in November 2021 before breaking up in August of this year.

West went on a months-long social media campaign against Pete Davison, who he disparagingly called Skete. According to Brilliant Idiots podcast host Charlamagne Tha God, the tension between Pete Davidson and Kante West also stemmed from Ye expressing his jealousy that Davidson has a “10-inch penis.”

U.K. Rapper AJ Tracey Offers Scholarships For Black Students At Oxford University

AJ Tracey is putting his resources into addressing “historic underrepresentation” among Black students at Oxford University. 

The West Londoner is donating £40,000 annually ($45K approx.) to assist ethnic minority students at the world-class university. The AJ Tracey Fund also aims to support research into Black histories and experiences. 

He took to social media last week (Oc. 18), sharing a series of images from a dinner he hosted at St Peter’s College. 

“A big thank you to @UniofOxford & @SPC_Oxford for allowing me to hold a dinner and meet some of the brightest young people last night,” AJ Tracey Penned in the caption. It was an honour to speak at the union and I look forward to our continued work and partnership going forward 📚🧠 

The “Thiago Silva” rapper said he’s working to “level the playing field” for Black Oxford students.  

“I think, in general, for anyone who doesn’t understand why Black people who have managed to become successful want to help Black kids, it should be self-explanatory,” AJ Tracey told The Guardian. “The whole country is catered towards white people and we’re just trying to level the playing field by helping Black kids.”  

AJ Tracey also addressed the backlash fellow U.K. rapper Stormzy received when he announced a scholarship for Black students at Cambridge. Some online branded the “Mel Made Me Do It” hitmaker racist and “anti-white” for the move. 

“It’s crazy,” AJ Tracey said in response. “At the end of the day, a large portion of the population is always going to have a very uneducated and misguided view on these kinds of happenings. Even if I were to say, ‘Yeah, I want to help every student, not just Black or ethnic students’, they’ll just say it’s a PR stunt.” 

Candace Owens Threatens To Sue George Floyd’s Family

Candace Owens is threatening to sue the family of George Floyd after their attorney revealed they are considering a $250 million lawsuit against Kanye West after he claimed Floyd’s death was caused by a drug overdose.  

Earlier this month, the rapper attended the premier of the controversial conservative commentator’s new documentary “The Greatest Lie Ever Sold: George Floyd,” and later cited the film during his controversial Drink Champs interview.  

Ye incorrectly claimed Floyd died from a Fentanyl overdose despite two separate autopsies concluding his death was caused by asphyxiation caused by police officer Derek Chauvin kneeling on his neck for nine minutes.  

Candace Owens Brands George Floyd Family’s Lawsuit A “PR Stunt”

After the family cited emotional distress as a motivating factor in the lawsuit, Candace Owens defended Kanye West. She said the suit is causing her “a ton of distress,” calling it “a PR stunt,” before threatening her own legal proceedings. 

“I’m also sick of frivolous lawsuits,” she said on her podcast. “You know, if this is actually considered credible, if you can sue somebody because you’re feeling ’emotionally distressed’ because of them going out and saying things, well then I think that I have grounds to sue George Floyd’s estate.” 

She continued, “I have grounds to sue George Floyd’s family for doing this little PR stunt. It’s causing me a ton of distress. I feel angry and I feel upset with the fact that I am fighting for Black America to be freed from the lies while these people are fighting to keep them in the dark!”  

 Candace Owens then doubled down, saying, “This is unacceptable. I’m really — I’m serious. I’m going to go out and I’m going to ask lawyers ‘If this is legitimate, can I sue George Floyd’s family?’ Because I should be able to.” 

Earlier this month, Kanye West and Candace Owens reunited at the Yeezy designers Paris Fashion Week Show. The pair were widely criticized for wearing Ye’s “White Lives Matter” shirts during the event.  

Kanye West: Kim Kardashian “Could Never Love” Pete Davidson Because “She Likes Black Guys”

Kanye West says he always knew Kim Kardashian would break up with Pete Davidson because she has a type; according to Ye, “she likes Black guys.” 

The DONDA rapper, currently at the center of controversy over his antisemitic remarks, has never been a fan of the comedian. Though Kim and Pete have since broken up, Kanye’s online harassment of Pete Davidson reportedly caused the comic to enter therapy. 

However, Ye said their recent split was inevitable as Pete is not her type. 

“I mean I knew there was no way she could love this dude,” Kanye West said during an appearance on the Lex Fridman Podcast. “Not just because he’s ugly, he’s not Black. She likes Black guys.” 

Furthermore, Kanye West said Kim Kardashian’s “type” is even more specific. “Every guy that she is with looks exactly the same,” Ye continued. “Ray J, Reggie Bush, at that time Kanye West. She has a type just like how I have a type. A lot of my girls look kind of similar to her.” Check out the clip below and the interview at the end of the page.

Elsewhere during the interview posted on Monday (Oct. 24), Ye described the mother of his four children as “My favourite of all time.” When asked about his love for Kim Kardashian, Kanye explained it’s down to her biology.  

“It’s just, the DNA is like … she a mix of Rob and Kris,” Ye said, referring to Kim’s parents, Robert Kardashian and Kris Jenner. “That’s a really high pool right there. Those are like two geniuses.” 

Kanye West described himself as “the living” version of Kim’s late father during his interview with Piers Morgan.  

“I’m still the priest of that home. They want to make it this matriarch society…but I am the priest of that home, and God is alive. I am the living Robert Kardashian,” Ye stated. “And I’m going to stand up for what God would want as a Christian. 

Meanwhile, Kim condemned antisemitism in a recent social media post. While she did not mention Kanye by name, she called out hate speech. Kris Jenner and Kim’s sister Khloe Kardashian also shared similar messages.

According to a report from the New York Times, a source confirmed Ye and his G.O.O.D Music label are no longer affiliated with Def Jam. Kanye West 

While the news comes as numerous brands sever their ties with the rapper over his antisemitic comments, it’s unclear if Ye’s remarks affected his association with his longtime record label.

Kanye West’s Weeks Of Controversy

On Monday (Oct. 24), talent agency CAA became the latest in a long line of business to cut ties with Kanye West. He signed with the agency in 2016 which represented him for touring, but they dropped him over his antisemitic remarks. 

Also on Monday, Film Studio MRC announced they won’t be releasing a documentary on Ye, despite recently completing filming. “We cannot support any content that amplifies his platform,” they said in a statement.  

Companies and longtime friends have been distancing themselves from Kanye West and his remarks since his controversial Paris Fashion Week show. He received backlash over his “White Lives Matter” designs and association with conservative commentator Candace Owens before being suspended from social media over antisemitic rhetoric.  

Since then, Ye’s made a steady stream of media appearances doubling down on his earlier statements while making other controversial remarks and pedaling conspiracy theories. Drink Champs took down their interview with Ye, and N.O.R.E. apologized for not checking Kanye West over his incorrect statements about the death of George Floyd.  

However, in his most recent interview aired on Monday, Kanye West revealed he “absolutely” is happy. During an appearance on the Lex Fridman Podcast, he explained that although he has frustrations, “it’s difficult to make me unhappy.” Check out the clip below.  

Kanye West Sues Australian Burger Shop Over Its Branding

Australia’s College Dropout Burgers faced the legal wrath of Kanye West, who filed a lawsuit against the burger shop.

According to multiple reports, Kanye West pursued legal action over the burger shop’s name and menu. Earlier this year, the restaurant received a cease and desist that led to its owner removing a ‘Ye-inspired logo and menu items referencing the controversial rapper/producer.

The burger shop maintained the College Dropout name despite it being the title of Kanye West’s debut album. Owner Mark Elkhouri said he kept the name because he’s a college dropout.

“College Dropout Burgers has respectfully removed all references to Ye, establishing a new direction, theme and brand identity,” Mark Elkhouri told 3AW in Australia. “I can’t understand what would motivate a major artist to sue a small humble burger restaurant on the other side of the world.”

Kanye West’s lawyers claim College Dropout Burgers still references ‘Ye in multiple ways. Although the restaurant got rid of a Dropout Bear logo, lawyers insist there are still items on the menu linked to ‘Ye.

Attorneys are seeking a permanent injunction against Mark Elkhouri. Lawyers also asked the College Dropout Burgers owner to withdraw a trademark application and get rid of any materials referencing Kanye West.

Westside Gunn took notice of Drake’s choice for a release date.

The Griselda Records rapper suggested Drake was trying to overshadow Westside Gunn’s Hitler Wears Hermes 10 project, which drops on October 28. Drake recently announced Her Loss, a collaborative album with 21 Savage due out on the same day.

“2yrs in a Row @Drake I’m on to you,” Westside Gunn wrote with laughing emojis on Twitter. “10/28.”

Although Westside Gunn will be fighting for listeners’ attention on October 28, he doesn’t seem fazed by the high-profile competition. He championed himself while promoting Hitler Wears Hermes 10 on Monday (October 24).

“I’m a be honest with y’all CANT NOBODY F### WITH ME,” he declared via Twitter. “This s### in me not on me, why I have to be the illest rapper when I’m the Illest N…., ya Fav rapper wish he was me, oh yea and my albums still better than everybody’s hahahahah #FLYGOD TEN 10/28 @griseldarecords #GXFR.”

Westside Gunn released the first Hitler Wears Hermes in 2012. He planned for last year’s two-parter Hitler Wears Hermes 9 to be the final entry, but the Buffalo-bred artist decided to drop one more project in the long-running series.

“Tasha Ain’t Learned Her Lesson Yet?” Megan Thee Stallion Likes Post Denying Rumors Put Out By Blogger

Video blogger Tasha K continues to target high-profile rappers with gossip and the sharing of information about their personal lives. This time she is aiming at Houston’s own Megan Thee Stallion, claiming on an Instagram Live with Nicki Minaj that the “Hottie” star damaged singer and influencer Teyana Taylor’s home.

As reported by AllHipHop.com, Tasha K, who was found guilty of defamation after going to trial with Cardi B, said to the Queen of the Barbz, “We’re just talking about Megan. You know she done fu***d up Teyana Taylor’s house. Teyana had to sell that house. You know Megan was renting that house, and that’s why [she] and [stylist E.J. King] fell out.”


While the “Savage” rapper didn’t go blow for blow with the YouTuber, she did let her rebuttal be known in a very casual way. She liked a tweet from another blogger named Ken Barbie who shared the house Tasha K was talking about. This was not the same house that was jacked of $300K to $400K in jewelry, cash, and electronics during a burglary.

Ken Barbie wrote, “Meg rented from Teyana from a very short period in 2019 and left very early 2020. Teyana just sold the home nearly a month ago, it is not the same home of Meg’s that was recently burglarized. Tasha also raised false allegations on Meg’s fall out with her former stylist EJ King.”

Tasha K jumped into the comments and said, “And tell your minion blogger. He got the story wrong… ain’t nobody say nothing about Teyana selling that home because of you. What I said was is that she is selling the home@she let you rent & damaged! And now that your home was burglarized, she don’t care cause Karma is a b****! Is what I said!”

Adding, “You damaged that lady house. She had to run you down for her bread. Ej suggested you rent out one of her homes to that lady. On top of of trying to skip out on damages and back rent. Ej had to run you down for his 80k in work he did for you! Meg please! Yeah you rented the home then, but they both had to run you down for the bread you owed them… Ej!!😱😱.”

One fan wrote something so many have been thinking, “Tasha ain’t learned her lesson yet??”

As reported by AllHipHop.com, Tasha K still owes Cardi B $3.8 million.

Lil Yachty and Tyrese Gibson star in the upcoming action film The System, which hits theaters on October 28.

Ahead of the movie’s release, AllHipHop brings our readers an exclusive clip from The System. The scene features Joker (played by Lil Yachty) issuing a warning to Terry Savage (played by Tyrese Gibson) in prison.

The System also stars Terrence Howard and Jeremy Piven. Dallas Jackson wrote and directed the film, which tells the story of a retired Marine who goes on an undercover mission in prison.

“When a young soldier (Tyrese Gibson), newly returned from war, gets caught up in a drug bust, he is recruited by the authorities to go undercover in a notoriously dangerous prison to investigate what is really going on behind the scenes,” the film’s official description reads. “When he discovers an underground prisoner fighting ring, the warden forces him to compete. In order to win his freedom, he must fight to stay alive as well as take down the warden’s corrupt system.”

Lil Yachty and Tyrese Gibson’s The System drops digitally soon after its theatrical release. The movie will be available on-demand on November 4.
