Chris Brown Calls Violent Incident With Drake A “Misunderstanding”

Chris Brown and Drake went from collaborators to adversaries to collaborators again. Their frenemy rapport crossed the line into violence in June 2012.

At the time, Brown shared photos of injuries on his Instagram page. Reports suggested an altercation with Drake at New York City’s WIP nightclub caused those wounds to CB’s face.

Apparently, bottles began flying across the club after Drake sent a triggering note to Chris Brown’s table. This led to both artists throwing shade at each other in their respective songs, interviews, and social media posts.

Chris Brown Talks Beef With Drake On Drink Champs

As part of the promotion for his new Breezy studio album, Chris Brown sat down with N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN’s Drink Champs podcast. The topic of his beef with Drake came up during the interview.

“It was just a misunderstanding on both ends,” said Brown about his blowup with Drake. “I ain’t going into too many details. It’s funny as hell now, but as far as that, blood, he’s good though. He’s straight.”

The 33-year-old Virginia native also added, “It was funny, and then when we actually sat and talked about it afterward. It was just like, ‘Man, what the fuck was we doing? Like bro, that s### was funny as hell.’ But s###, I’m an R&B n####. I be in love with women.”

Breezy & Drizzy Eventually Got Past Their Bad Blood

There were rumors that Drake and Chris Brown’s fight in NYC was over Rihanna. The R&B songstress once dated both Drizzy and Breezy. Rihanna’s relationship with Brown included a highly-publicized domestic violence incident in 2009.

It appeared that Chris Brown and Drake settled their differences several years ago. Back in 2014, Brown surprisingly showed up in an ESPYs Awards sketch with his Canadian foe and NBA player Blake Griffin. Four years later, Drake brought out CB during a tour stop in Los Angeles.

The two award-winning artists finally officially cemented their reconciliation with Chris Brown’s “No Guidance” single. That 2019 collaboration became a Top 10 hit on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart. The track’s music video has amassed more than 422 million views on YouTube.

A new single from Hip Hop superstar Cardi B titled “Hot S###” will arrive this Friday (July 1).

This time, Cardi recruited Chicago-raised rappers Kanye “Ye” West and Lil Durk as features for the collaboration. On Sunday, she made the announcement about the upcoming arrival of “Hot S###.”

The following day Cardi B then revealed Ye and Durkio as the featured guests on the track. The Grammy-winning Invasion of Privacy album creator also presented the song’s official Lil Kim-inspired cover art.

https://twitter.com/iamcardib/status/1541224116245635073?s=20&t=kVxWbqf2qBwN5FXA2T7InA

“Friday we shaking the world I promise 🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪,” tweeted Lil Durk on Monday night. The “Ahhh Ha” hitmaker’s Twitter post collected over 2,500 retweets and 15,000 likes.

Cardi B quote-tweeted Lil Durk and added, “YOUR VERSE THO 🔥🔥🔥😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨.” That online praise from the Bronx-bred entertainer led to Durk replying, “You got the hardest verse we all can agree 🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪.”

“Hot S###” will be Cardi’s first lead single since “Up” in February 2021. That 2x-Platinum-certified song peaked at #1 on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart. She also recently appeared on Normani’s “Wild Side,” Lizzo’s “Rumors,” and Summer Walker’s “No Love (Extended Version).”

Lil Durk is coming off dropping his seventh studio album, 7220, in March. The 17-track project debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200, giving Durk his first solo Number One on the chart. A deluxe version of 7220 landed on June 24.

In addition to teaming with Cardi B and Lil Durk, this year has also seen Kanye West link with The Game (“Eazy”), Fivio Foreign and Alicia Keys (“City of Gods”), and the late XXXTentacion (“True Love”). All three singles live on West’s Donda 2 album which was released exclusively on the Stem Player audio device.

Stormzy Reveals Deleting His Social Media Helped Him Feel “Normal” & Forced Him To Address His Ego 

By: London Jennn Updated Category: News

Stormzy has explained his abrupt disappearance from social media after deleting his Instagram and Twitter accounts two years ago.  

The South London rapper explained he made his departure in February 2020 in a bid to overcome his ego. However, he also revealed that while it was a “weird feeling” initially, he now feels “normal,” as a result.  

Stormzy recalled performing on tour in Denmark in March 2020, shortly after deactivating his social media. “We done the show and I came off stage,” he said as per LadBible. “I remember one of my first feelings was getting the clip of us to put on social media but I didn’t have social media. I remember it being a weird feeling,” he added before admitting he would normally rush to share the moment.  

Stormzy Addresses Overcoming Ego

“That’s ego, that’s ego,” Stormzy recalled thinking at the time. That’s probably validation.” He revealed it was “a big turning point,” for him “in terms of what ego is and how you gotta kill ego.” 

He added, “there is an ego in man I need to kill because look how blessed we are.”  

However, the “Vossi Bop” hitmaker also shared another reason for the move, the need to distance himself from “noise” and help him feel “normal.” 

“Whether that be noise on the internet, whether that be noise in reality, whether that be noise in events. I’ll just make active decisions to not be around noise. Because I feel that noise doesn’t allow me to be normal,” he explained.  

Stormzy also believes “there’s a degree of separation that’s needed,” as a human being. He concluded, “There’s a man in there who needs to remain before the artist.” 

Meanwhile, earlier this month, Stormzy was celebrated for his philanthropic contributions. He collected an honorary degree from Exeter University in recognition of his work to promote education, and fight racial inequality.

Once again Drake sits atop Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart. The OVO Sound frontman scored his eleventh #1 single, thanks to “Jimmy Cooks” featuring 21 Savage.

“Jimmy Cooks” debuted at No. 1 this week. After Honestly, Nevermind opened in the top spot of the Billboard 200 chart, Drake is now the first solo artist to have eleven No. 1 songs on the Hot 100 and eleven No. 1 albums on the Billboard 200.

In addition, “Jimmy Cooks” is the former child actor’s record-extending seventh song to debut at No. 1 on the Hot 100. He previously achieved that feat with “God’s Plan,” “Nice for What,” “Toosie Slide,” “What’s Next,” “Way 2 Sexy” and “Wait for U.”

Two other Honestly, Nevermind tracks landed in the Hot 100’s Top 10. “Sticky” launched at No. 6 and “Falling Back” started at No. 7. Thirteen songs from Drake’s latest project charted on this week’s rankings.

Drake Extends Several Of His Own Hot 100 Records

Drake also added to his record of most Top 10 entries in Hot 100 history. The 35-year-old Canadian rapper/singer now has 58 songs that have made it into the Top 10 region since 2009.

Plus, the man also known as Champagne Papi earned his 29th career Top 5 hit on the Hot 100. Drake entered into a tie with the legendary British band The Beatles for the most Top 5 entries of all time.

Drake also extended his own records for the most Top 20 hits (93), Top 40 hits (148), and total entries (263). While Honestly, Nevermind received mixed reviews and saw a decline in first-week sales from earlier Drake albums, the studio LP still pulled in 250 million on-demand streams in its opening week.

21 Savage is the only guest artist to appear on Honestly, Nevermind. The Atlanta-bred rhymer has two career Number Ones on the Hot 100 chart. Savage spent eight weeks at No. 1 as a feature on Post Malone’s “Rockstar.”

Authorities arrested Christopher Gunn, 39, for allegedly threatening three prosecutors in the R. Kelly criminal case. The Kelly superfan appeared in a Chicago federal courthouse on Monday afternoon.

According to reports, Christopher Gunn informed his YouTube subscribers to “get real familiar” with the U.S. Attorney’s office in Brooklyn. The Chicago area resident, also known as DeBoSki, suggested they should “storm” the building.

“If [R. Kelly] goes down, everybody’s going down,” Gunn declared in a YouTube video dated October 4, 2021. He also allegedly said, “[If] you ain’t got the stomach for the s### we bout to do, I’m asking that you just bail out.”

Christopher Gunn also reportedly shared a clip from the 1991 movie Boyz n the Hood where characters prepared to shoot and kill their adversaries. Law enforcement arrested Gunn in the Chicago area on federal charges. He supposedly faces up to five years in prison if convicted.

R. Kelly Convicted On Numerous Charges In New York

In September 2021, a federal jury in Brooklyn found R. Kelly (born Robert Sylvester Kelly) guilty of bribery, sexual exploitation of a child, forced labor, and other sex-related charges. The disgraced R&B singer is scheduled to be sentenced on Wednesday.

“Today’s guilty verdict forever brands R. Kelly as a predator, who used his fame and fortune to prey on the young, the vulnerable, and the voiceless for his own sexual gratification,” stated Jacquelyn M. Kasulis, then-Acting United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York.

Drake famously once settled a longstanding beef with Chris Brown in hilarious fashion, with a dance battle during the video for Breezy’s “No Guidance,” in 2019. 

The pair faced off in a showdown which ultimately had Drake clearing the venue with his cringey dance moves in the spoof-style video.  

Now Drake is back at it again, going head-to-head in a dance battle with a Philly rapper who recently called him out for copying his dance music style. 2Rare has been making a name for himself after gaining traction on TikTok with his remix of 112’s 1996 hit “Cupid.” 

He shared a TikTok of him and his crew dancing to the Toronto rapper’s “Sticky,” the lead single from his new project.  

“DRAKE REALLY HOPPED ON ARE WAVE ITS UPP!!😂🔥🔥” he wrote.

NLE Choppa Claims He’s The Most Accomplished Rapper For His Age After Roddy Ricch Comments 

By: London Jennn Updated Category: News

NLE Choppa has thrown his hat in the ring for the discussion surrounding the “Top Rappers Under 25” conversation that arose recently after Roddy Ricch named himself, YBN Youngboy, and Kodak Black as the elite three.  

He took to Twitter with a reminder for his fans. “Best under 25.. it’s crazy to not mention me when you realize I’m only 19,” NLE Choppa began before listing off his accolades. “You don’t have to like my music but my numbers are undeniable. 16 Gold And Platinum Plaques, 6 Songs Over 100M, 6 Billion Streams Worldwide, Sold Out Tour In US, Also Currently Selling out EUROPE TOO 🐐” 

NLE Choppa continued, stating he’s without comparison and laid claim to the title of most accomplished rapper for his age.  

“You can’t compare me to no n####,” he said. “I’m literally the youngest doing it and it ain’t one person at my age done what I’ve done so far. Everybody else got atleast 3 years on me average. Then it’s me 3 years in the game and I’ve already did more than some n##### whole career.” 

While he didn’t mention what or who prompted his tweets, Roddy Ricch’s recent comments on Power 106 may have come his way. During the interview, the host asked who he considers the “Big Three” of his generation. “There’s a few,” he replied before asking for a specific age range. Once they settled on 20 to 25 Roddy Ricch decided on his three. “I’d say me, and Youngboy, and Kodak. That’s the age range right there.” Roddy added. 

Back in April, NLE Choppa claimed to be the successor to NBA Youngboy. “The hottest youngin since YB, the hottest out my city,” he raps on “Yak Flow.”

While fans debated the question under his tweets, NLE Choppa took to Instagram to show off his international earnings.  

I don’t do dollars anymore,” NLE Choppa declared before flaunting a stack of Euros. “New Name International CHOP,” he added in the caption. “Pay Me In Euros, Franks And Pounds!”

He also shared a video of fans surrounding his vehicle before his show in Poland. “Feel Like Michael Jackson Or Some RIP THE GOAT,” he said.

Cardi B has a new single coming, and after teasing the track earlier this week, she’s giving her fans some more info. 

The Bronx native announced that her” very masculine” forthcoming single “Hot Sh*t” features Kanye West and Lil Durk and has been sitting on the back burner for almost three years.  

Belcalis shared the cover art on social media and revealed that “Hot Sh*t” arrives on Friday (Jun. 27), featuring the two Chicago-bred rappers.  

https://twitter.com/iamcardib/status/1541572302030180354?s=20&t=XMfpaTy-OZ1UbEYeKEMxWQ

Lil Durk took to Twitter to declare, “Friday we shaking the world I promise 🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪” Cardi consigned the statement replying, “YOUR VERSE THO 🔥🔥🔥😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨” 

https://twitter.com/iamcardib/status/1541628048704999425?s=20&t=XMfpaTy-OZ1UbEYeKEMxWQ

Cardi B also joined her fans to discuss the new music during a Bardi Gang Twitter Space. “I have this record already for almost three years,” she said. “I think this record is actually older than ‘WAP.’ It is everyone’s favorite.” She then added, “The record is very masculine too.” 

Cardi B Announces New Music

Furthermore, Cardi B plans on coming right back with new music after dropping the upcoming single. “I’m already working on the next record,” she announced. “I’m already planning the rollout for the next record. It’s not gonna be a couple months, this and that, after this record. I know I’ve been really lowkey with s###, but I’m ready to be outside outside outside.” 

While explaining that the song will arrive without an accompanying video, Cardi revealed her frustrations. “With the promo, I just don’t feel like doing too much this time around,” she said on Instagram Live. “Because I’m just exhausted with everybody.”  

Elsewhere on the Livestream, she also let slip that she’s moving in a different direction on this song. She continued, “I’m so tired of people not doing their f*cking job correctly,” Cardi B added. “I’m so tired of people just doing things their way. Just…I’m just over it, you know what I’m saying? I’m over it. I’m gonna put this record [out], if it do good, it do good. I think it’s gonna do good ’cause at the end of the day, the record is amazing. I love the record. It’s something that I feel like you haven’t heard from me before.” 

Ray J Capitalizes On Verzuz & BET Awards Viral Moments; Teases New R&B Group & Noodles Deal

Ray J has a canny ability to turn some of his most controversial moments into a business venture, and his chaotic Verzuz performance last week (Jun. 23) is no different. 

The R&B singer teamed up with Pleasure P to go head-to-head with Sammie and Bobby V ahead of the main showdown between Omario and Mario. However, the show got off to a hilariously bumpy start providing meme creators with days’ worth of material.  

One of the most talked-about moments was Ray J’s “One Wish” performance. The singer-turned-entrepreneur delivered a shaky vocal display before his teammate joined him. His opponents also got in on the act, leaving Ray J thoroughly unimpressed.

Nonetheless, they all hopped on Ray J’s live to discuss the fallout from the night’s events. It appears there may be a new R&B group on the horizon.  

“First order of business is the music,” Sammie declared, although this soon led to a debate about who makes the best music. There may not be much the new group agree on as they soon began arguing over who was the group’s spokesperson. However, if the new group comes to fruition, all the back-and-forth could be caught on camera. Sammie asked Ray J to reach out to his contacts at BET for a reality show capturing the behind-the-scenes of the making of the group.  

They also discussed that “One Wish” performance elsewhere during the conversation. While he can now admit he wasn’t his best vocally during the Verzuz, he didn’t realize “I needed help at the time.” Sammie said he wasn’t trying to steal his moment and blamed the shaky singing on “too many Casamigos.” 

Check out the Live below.

Omarion Has Something Up His Sleeve

Omarion.

What does Omarion have in store? The singer, the former lead of the group B2K, has been on the tip of the tongue of a lot of people recently. There have been varying degrees of good and bad. I was upset with him because he openly ate watermelon on stage for no apparent reason.

But, he is following up quickly with the Verzuz battle with Mario. He put up a cryptic message on Instagram stating that something is going to drop on July 7. He used the song by T.I. to punctuate his point. I am not sure what he has in store, but I do not have a problem with him capitalizing off of the attention.

A post shared by ⚡️Omarion ⚡️ (@omarion)

Some people do have an issue with it. The watermelon, some of the responses to Mario and even the comments towards his former band mates have turned some people off. Not everyone though!

Now, some people aren’t even assuming that it is an actual project. I just assumed it was, but it may not be. The caption, which says something in and of itself “the dark will come to the light,“ suggest that he may be opening Pandora’s box against his enemies. I wonder…nah, he wouldn’t get into the Chris Stokes stuff.

Anyway, it seems like the Verzuz loss to Mario still stings a bit. He has made it clear that he is the HEADLINER of the next show they share.

A post shared by ⚡️Omarion ⚡️ (@omarion)

But, it was a win for all, no matter what. Omarion recently highlighted that the Verzuz got over 5 million total viewers, which is a sum total that includes all platforms. He also included there were 725,000 peak viewers at one point in time across all platforms. And they were trending for quite some time over the course of the battle and after. So, even though it was a huge fiasco and the singing was quite horrible, they did what they had to do. And what they had to do was command the eyeballs and attention of a large number of people. Mission accomplished! Anyway it seems like Omarion‘s new movement is called “Unbothered.” I think that’s pretty cool. He has a book coming out as well as other aspects of the movement and so he seems to be resolute in moving forward in a positive way. I can’t even be mad at that!

It seems like this guy is really on the positive side of things and when it’s time to sweat a few flies, that’s what he does! So shout up to Omarion! And shout out to Mario! Shout out to everybody, because rappers are getting shot, arrested, and a bunch of other things that’s bad. So the worst is the worst and, Omarion is hardly the worst.

Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman wants to prevent Roddy Ricch from performing in Long Island.

According to a letter obtained by the New York Post, Blakeman seeks to ban Roddy Ricch over a “f### NYPD” chant.

Blakeman asks the UBS Arena to not allow Roddy Ricch to perform at the venue. The West Coast rapper is scheduled to open for Post Malone at the arena on October 9.

“The last thing these officers need is some ‘celebrity’ inciting violence and hate against them,” Blakeman writes. “As violence against police is on the rise, and woke politicians fan the flames of the defund the police movement, we should be showing more support for our police, not less.”

He continues, “On behalf of the 1.4 million residents of Nassau County, I strongly condemn [Roddy Ricch’s] rhetoric in the strongest possible terms. The Nassau County Police Department works closely with the NYPD every day to keep communities safe across Nassau County.”

Roddy Ricch led a “f### NYPD” chant at Hot 97’s Summer Jam festival on June 12. He put the police on blast after authorities dropped gun charges against him.

The Atlantic Records artist missed his scheduled performance at the Governors Ball in Queens on June 11. Police arrested him and two other men on gun charges before he could enter Citi Field.

Black Ink Crew star Ceaser Emanuel faces more allegations of abuse in wake of VH1 firing him.

Emanuel’s ex-girlfriend Suzette Samuel accused him of abusing her in an Instagram Stories post on Monday (June 27). Samuel shared a photo of her bruised arm along with details about his alleged behavior.

“I tried not to do this to you but here we go,” she wrote. “You know I know EVERYTHING you’re an abuser!!! Member Christmas time when u found that dude in my dm?! This was the result. U played with the wrong one! You used the network to manipulate me and threatens to use the show to destroy my brand for months. I left you your birthday weekend stop playin!”

Samuel aired out Emanuel after he claimed an ex leaked the dog abuse video that got him fired by VH1. The Black Ink Crew boss didn’t mention Samuel by name but insisted the footage surfaced online following a breakup in an interview with the OnThaRadar Podcast.

“They always dangled it over my head,” Emanuel said. “You know how it felt having that dangled over your head? Like yo, you bugging. And it’s for years. And finally, after I say I’m single, the next day that drops.”

SpotemGottem found himself behind bars again on Sunday (June 26).

According to multiple reports, police arrested SpotemGottem after he led them on a chase while operating a jet ski. The 20-year-old rapper allegedly fled when an officer tried to stop him for recklessly driving around boats near Miami Marine Stadium.

SpotemGottem, whose real name is Nehemiah Harden, was charged with reckless operation of a boat as well as fleeing and eluding a law enforcement officer.

The bond for each charge was only $1, but SpotemGottem will stay in jail through Monday night (June 27). The Geffen Records artist was already out on bond for charges of aggravated assault with a firearm and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.

“Because he has two felony bonds, he’s going to see the judge tomorrow,” a spokesperson told the Miami Herald. “So, he’ll be with us tonight.”

SpotemGottem is no stranger to running afoul of the law. But he also faced life-threatening danger as the victim of a 2021 drive-by shooting. He suffered multiple gunshot wounds in the incident but managed to recover from his injuries.

The Florida native is best known for his breakthrough single “Beat Box.” The track peaked at No. 12 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Chaka Zulu Shooting: Former Atlanta Mayor Provides Update On Ludacris’ Manager

Ludacris’ longtime manager Chaka Zulu survived a deadly shooting in Atlanta.

The veteran music executive and two other victims were shot in the Buckhead section of Atlanta on Sunday (June 26). Former Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed issued a statement about Chaka Zulu’s condition on Monday (June 27).

“We are fortunate to report that Chaka Zulu is in stable condition and recovering,” Reed told WSB-TV’s Michael Seiden. “The family thanks everyone for their well wishes and prayers, and asks for their privacy at this time.”

According to 11 Alive News, officers said the shooting stemmed from an argument in a parking lot behind a shopping center on Peachtree Road. One man died from injuries suffered in the gunfire. Chaka Zulu and another victim needed surgery but survived the shooting.

Police haven’t apprehended the gunman as of Monday afternoon. No information about the suspect has been released to the public.

The investigation into the shooting is ongoing. Authorities hope surveillance video will provide more details about the deadly incident.

Chaka Zulu co-founded Disturbing Tha Peace Records with Ludacris. He also worked with artists such as Jeezy, Swizz Beatz, Big K.R.I.T. and Childish Major.

Questlove and Juicy J offered prayers after learning about the shooting.

Did Lil TJay’s Shooters Shoot Each Other?

By: illseed Updated Category: Rumors
Preferred Source Publisher Button>

Oh noooooooooooooooooooo!

This sucks already.

Not only was Lil Tjay reportedly lined up, but new information reveals, his mans and them probably didn’t bust back.

So, undoubtably the plot is thickening with Lil Tjay. The Bronx rapper was shot seven times and the man arrested is probably the perpetrator of the crime. Right now, nobody is guilty legally, but there’re a lot of smoking guns around. Edgewater, New Jersey is a pretty quiet and the food place, certainly not known for crime. A lot of the locals were shaken up after this recent shooting.

Hassan Campbell is all over this situation, and seems to have ties to the family. He has disclosed a number of things that I personally did not know.

First of all, he informed me in a lot of people that little TJ‘s homeboys did not shoot back. He alleges that it was actually the shooters trying to kill Lil Tjay that shot each other. So there was no shoot out as initially reported. At least that’s what he says. So those guys shot each other and then were caught, rather unceremoniously. What he says is that they were caught with guns in various places, but none of them had discharged. So this is still in fraction jail worthy at the moment.

The second thing is that A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie and Lil Tjay apparently have beef between them. This is also something I did not know. He does not incriminate A Boogie or anything of that nature, but mentioning it does raise a couple of eyebrows. Also Fivio Foreign‘s name comes up, but he seems to absolve him of all “guilt” because he did in fact go visit Lil Tjay almost immediately.

There has also been a very powerful rumor that suggests that Lil Tjay might be paralyzed, but the latest is that that is untrue and that he is improving. That is an amazing slice of good news on a rainy day.

All of this is to say “stay out of trouble kids! “The stuff just isn’t worth it. In fact, I am hopeful and hoping that the entire culture of Hip-Hop decides to straighten up and tighten up and understand that the forces of evil are actually against us. But we’re too busy fighting each other to even fight back at the real enemies.

Take it away!

Eloghosa continuously produces music, including three hit singles: “Mayhem”, “Diamond”, and “Rage”, and an EP dubbed “Living”. “Diamond” is his most recent release (April 2022), and it is a winner. It received one thousand plus plays on the first release day and continues to gain popularity across his social media platforms. In addition, Eloghosa’s Spotify platform has an average of 5,650 monthly listeners throughout the US.

Eloghosa is far from your average person. He is still in high school and juggles both his music and education. He puts in a lot of determination and hard work to excel in both, which is evidenced by his success. “I was awarded the ‘best student of my class award’ while still enjoying my free time and working hard to create music like a perfectionist,” Eloghosa says.

“Scumbag” Rudy Giuliani Was Patted On Back, Not “Assaulted,” Says ShopRite Worker’s Legal Team

Former New York City mayor and Donald Trump flunky Rudy Giuliani was assaulted in Staten Island over the weekend.

On Sunday, June 26th, while Giuliani was shopping at the ShopRite grocery store, the lawyer was smacked on his back as the assailant said, “What’s up, scumbag?”

The man who hit the disgraced lawyer was a worker at the supermarket and was taken into custody. A 39-year-old named Daniel Gill was charged with attacking “America’s Mayor.”

Gill was charged with third-degree assault, third-degree menacing, and second-degree harassment.

“I got hit as if a boulder hit me. It knocked me forward a step or two. It didn’t knock me down, but it hurt tremendously,” Rudy Giuliani said during a press conference.

Giuliani was at the ShopRite assisting his son Andrew, who is running in the state’s gubernatorial race 

“It’s a sad day when New Yorkers’ greatest crime fighter, ‘America’s Mayor,’ is attacked,” his son said. “I blame the left-wing for encouraging violence. This is crazy.”

Giuliani has not been making friends with the left, particularly those in entertainment.

As reported by AllHipHop.com, Rudy Giuliani criticized rapper Eminem when he kneeled at the Super Bowl LVI Halftime Show. He also felt compelled to talk bad about Snoop Dogg’s anti-police lyrics.

“Let’s get right to Eminem taking a knee,” Rudy Giuliani said.

“Why doesn’t he go to another country? I mean go take a knee someplace else. You know how many cops were defending him and protecting him at that game yesterday? I mean crime is way out of control in Los Angeles,” he continued, “He thinks that all happened because everybody loves Eminem? The simple reality is the NFL has made a mockery of law enforcement, particularly with its support for the cop-killing Black Lives Matter.”

The MAGAmaniac said he refused medical attention.

So, it is universally known that Diddy is now dating Caresha aka Yung Miami from The City Girls. This is all good. And we all approve of it, because why not? But, in his incredible speech for the lifetime achievement award at the BET Awards, he recognized his two exes Kim Porter, rest in peace, and Cassie, the one-time ride or die chick. Cassie has moved on and is now married to another man. Kim Porter passed away and is eternally in our hearts, as the mother of his children but also as a beautiful soul. And now, there is Caresha who is one of the City Girls. We like her too, but she’s relatively new to the scene. He did not recognize her in his speech, but she recognized him from the seats. She held up a sign saying “Go Papi,” for everyone to see. She was extremely exuberant and happy to be supporting her man in his finest moment.

However, there was a glaring disparity with the excitement between the two of them. Diddy stared into the camera and shouted out Cassie and paused. It was almost like he was saying something other than love. It was almost like “I still got you,” “I still love you” or “You’re still mine.” I don’t know, but it was very interesting. Nevertheless, Caresha probably wanted to put that sign down after he said that. If she didn’t, good for her. Stick it out! However, it just seemed like a disconnect.

All of that aside the social media world went bonkers, as you would imagine. And they expressed their full range of emotions in their various social feeds. Check that out.

All of that aside, the dedication to Diddy was amazing and he ran the gambit. The highlight of the display was a performance by Shyne Poe, also known as Shyne Barrow, who is also a politician now and believes he performed his hit from the Bad Boy era but he put a positive spin on it. And I thought that was a incredible Shine as one of our favorites, because his loyalty was so ironclad and he also managed to stay cool with the heaviness of Hip Hop. Diddy get props because he gave his former artist a platform on one of the largest stages of music and entertainment.

Lastly, Kim…poor Lil Kim. She came out guns blazing and missed her cue. And she was off the whole rest of the way. I love how Puffy held her down though.

UPDATE: Sources Says Lil Tjay “Doing Better” Debunking Paralyzed Rumors

Rapper Lil Tjay’s shooting has left a ton of rumors drifting in the wind. 

Some say he was left paralyzed and brain dead after being shot seven times on Wednesday, June 22nd.

According to FOX3 reports, fans have taken to social media to talk about his injuries. In one tweet, one person predicted the artist was left “crippled.”

According to a fan tweet, a man named Dr. Raheem Smith said, “Lil Tjay will be paralyzed for the rest of his life. He got 5 of 7 shots in the chest area and 2 in the spine. He is not able to move his upper body. He also has only a 15% chance to survive the attack.”

The alleged medical professional nor the person reporting gave any statement from someone close to Tjay regarding his injuries, nor did they cite any hospital sources about the rapper’s trauma.

FOX3 attempted to debunk the rumor after speaking to a source close to Lil Tjay. The news outlet stated that their source said he was “out of surgery” and “appears to be doing better.”

This seems to dead the conversations about the severity of his injuries. Fans who heard the good news are happy now but also were upset about the miseducation.

“So once more for the new people waking. There is no paralysis affecting Lil Tjay. We have not received any information of his paralysis from close friends, doctors, or major news outlets (sic). You can’t believe everything you read on these bogus troll pages.”

“Nothing accurate verified that Lil tjay is crippled!!!,” said another outraged person. “If you all would read instead of making assumptions, you would already be aware of it. It’s for the clout and all fake pages. Stop believing everything you see!”

So far, Lil Tjay or his family has not made a statement about the rapper’s condition.
