Mo3 Trial Date Set In Alleged Murder-For-Hire Plot Involving Yella Beezy

By: London JennnCategory: News

Mo3 will finally get his day in court nearly five years after he was gunned down on a Dallas freeway in an alleged murder-for-hire scheme that prosecutors say was orchestrated by fellow rapper Yella Beezy.

A trial date for one of the men charged in connection with the killing has been scheduled for early November in Dallas County.

Devin Maurice Brown, one of the accused in the case, is set to face a jury trial. A pretrial hearing has been scheduled for October 9, according to The Dallas Morning News.

Brown’s trial is the first to move forward in the high-profile case, which centers on the November 11, 2020, ambush-style killing of Mo3, whose legal name was Melvin Noble.

Yella Beezy Accused Of Orchestrating Mo3 Murder

Prosecutors allege that Markies Deandre Conway, known professionally as Yella Beezy, paid to have Mo3 killed and hired Kewon Dontrell White to carry out the hit.

The indictment claims Yella Beezy arranged the murder-for-hire plot that ended with Mo3 being chased down and shot multiple times on Interstate 35E near the Dallas Zoo.

Prosecutors say surveillance footage shows White, wearing a ski mask and armed, approaching Mo3’s vehicle before the rapper attempted to flee on foot.

He was shot in the back and died at the scene. A bystander was also wounded but survived.

White was arrested in December 2020 and is currently serving a nine-year sentence on firearm charges connected to the case. He has also been formally charged with murder.

Yella Beezy was indicted in March 2025 on capital murder charges for remuneration. His bond, initially set at $2 million, was later reduced to $750,000. He was released under strict conditions, including house arrest and electronic monitoring.

Prosecutors say they have both video evidence and witness statements connecting Yella Beezy and the other defendants to the planning and execution of the killing. If convicted, they could face life in prison or the death penalty under Texas law.

Mo3, who was 28 at the time of his death, had built a loyal following with tracks like “Broken Love” and “Errybody.” His murder drew national attention and reignited conversations about violence in the Hip-Hop community.

Megan Thee Stallion & Klay Thompson Debut Romance At Rapper’s Charity Gala

The video comes just days after the couple made their red carpet debut at the Pete & Thomas Foundation Gala in New York City on Tuesday (July 16).

The event marked their first public appearance as a couple, where they were seen holding hands and sharing a kiss in front of photographers.

Before going public, the duo teased their romance on social media. Thompson was first spotted in the background of Megan’s swimsuit photos earlier this month, fueling speculation. Days later, he posted affectionate snapshots of the two, including one of them kissing.

Megan recently opened up about her relationship, calling Thompson the “nicest person I’ve ever met in my life” and saying he makes her “genuinely happy.” She added that this is her first time dating someone who is “genuinely a nice person.”

Thompson returned the praise, highlighting Megan’s philanthropic work and saying he is “honored to be here by her side.” He also acknowledged her influence, saying he admires her impact on communities and her supporters around the world.

At the gala, Thompson made headlines by bidding $50,000 for Super Bowl tickets. The event raised more than $1.2 million for Megan’s foundation, which supports education, housing and healthcare initiatives in underserved areas.

Lil Wayne Was Supposed To Walk Dustin Poirier Out At UFC 318… But Never Did

By: Houston WilliamsCategory: Rumors

What happened?

Lil Wayne and Dustin Poirier were supposed to make Louisiana magic at UFC 318, but something got lost between the hype and the octagon. In New Orleans, this was billed as the final fight of Poirier’s incredible MMA career. And fans were primed to see their hometown hero make his entrance flanked by none other than Tunechi himself. But when the lights dimmed and the walk-out began, Lil Wayne did not walk him out.

This was supposed to be epic! And, it wasn’t just a rumor—it was confirmed. In an interview with ESPN earlier in the week, Poirier emphatically stated, “Wayne is walking me out. 100%.” That’s about as definitive as it gets. The press ran wild with it. And for Hip-Hop heads, UFC fans, and Louisiana natives, the moment promised to be legendary.

Only… it never happened.

Wayne was in the building at UFC 318. He was photographed backstage, and several sources confirmed his presence at the Smoothie King Center. So, it wasn’t a case of ghosting. But when it came time for the walk-out, Poirier emerged solo. No Wayne and no “A Milli.” The Diamond was amped so it may not have been a great, big issue.

This begs the question: what happened?

No official explanation has come out from either camp. Some are saying it was some last-minute UFC red tape. It also could have been logistics or production rights. Apparently, Wayne was ready but got cut due to a broadcast change or backstage miscommunication.

Poirier didn’t address the walk-out absence directly in the post-fight media. And Weezy? Nada. To make matters worse, Poirier lost. He’s got a storied career regardless. God bless.

On a side note, people are wondering what happened to Wayne.

Alabama Barker Flees Livestream After Bhad Bhabie Showdown Threat

By: London JennnCategory: News

Alabama Barker bailed on Plaqueboy Max’s livestream dating show on Tuesday (May 14) after hearing that her longtime rival, Bhad Bhabie, might show up, sparking a tense phone call and an even messier aftermath on social media.

“So y’all got Bhad Bhabie pulling up?” Barker asked Max during a call that quickly spiraled.

“F### no! What the f###!” Max replied.

“I’m leaving. I’m getting in my car. That’s what I was just told by production. If y’all snaked me out like that…” Barker responded.

Max doubled down, saying, “She’s not here.”

But Barker wasn’t convinced. “I’m literally getting in my car,” she said, her voice cracking.

Bhad Bhabie wasted no time fanning the flames. She reposted the audio of the call on Instagram with the caption, “SHE GONE CRY IN THE CAR……RUNNNNN.”

Alabama Barker Wants To Fight Bhad Bhabie One OnOne

Barker later posted a video to explain her side, claiming a member of the show’s security team told her Bhad Bhabie was on the way and that the whole thing was “all just to embarrass me on live.”

“I don’t want to fight nobody,” she said, explaining she didn’t want to be dragged online for fighting someone battling cancer.

Still, she made it clear she wasn’t backing down. “We’re gonna fight one on one, when I see you,” Barker said, adding she wasn’t scared of Bhad Bhabie.

A post shared by Watch Live Bitez (@livebitez)

The beef between the two dates back to December 2024, when Bhad Bhabie accused Barker of trying to steal her then-boyfriend Le Vaughn, who is also the father of her child. Both women aired their grievances on Instagram before deleting the posts.

Bhad Bhabie later dropped a diss track titled “Over Cooked,” throwing shade at Barker’s alleged ties to other celebrities. Barker clapped back with her own track, “Cry Bhabie,” and the feud has been simmering ever since.

Le Vaughn’s name has come up repeatedly, with both women accusing him of playing them against each other. Barker has denied any romantic involvement with him, saying he misled them both.

Travis Scott Goes Left: What Went Wrong With “Jackboys 2”?

By: Eric AzikeCategory: Exclusives

Following Trainwreck: The Astroworld Tragedy, anticipation for Travis Scott’s Jackboys 2 began building through leaked audio and live performance previews. Still, for some reason, I wasn’t particularly excited. Before diving in, I revisited the original Jackboys from 2019. It was a decent group effort with a unified sound and minimal outside features. It came and went, but it sounded better than what this sequel turned out to be.

Jackboys 2 feels less like a collective showcase and more like a Travis Scott and Don Toliver project, with scattered contributions from Sheck Wes and SoFaygo. Eh. While Don continues to receive proper spotlight, the others are left in the background. They show up on tracks that feel more like filler than highlights. Travis seems to be emulating the success of rap groups like A$AP Mob or Watch the Throne. But he never allows other members to shine.

The album’s features were hit or miss. GloRilla and Future felt natural, but appearances from Tyla and Vybz Kartel seemed misplaced. Overall, there’s a lack of cohesion and no clear identity or theme. I kept trying to figure out what Jackboys 2 was supposed to be, but it’s just 55 minutes of empty, formulaic music. This could’ve been a breakout moment for lesser-known Cactus Jack members, but instead, it reinforced the same hierarchy: Travis and Don at the top. The rest are fighting for scraps. The project lacks purpose and vision. It doesn’t even attempt to answer the question: What are the Jackboys, and what do they represent?

That said, there were some enjoyable moments. “CHAMPAIN AND VACAY” had potential, though Waka Flocka’s shouting felt more distracting than hype-inducing. “NO COMMENTS” offered a solid blend of synth-heavy production and Toliver’s melodic flow. Travis’s diss aimed at Pusha T on “CHAMPAIN AND VACAY,” however, fell completely flat. Pusha has taken massive shots in the past. The past? That would be the year 2025. Other highlights include “2000 EXCURSION” and 21 Savage’s feature on “KICK OUT,” both of which brought energy and solid production.

But moments like these weren’t enough to carry the album.

Since Astroworld, a certified classic, Travis Scott has felt creatively stagnant, opting for safe, formulaic tracks over experimentation. At this point in his career, he could be pushing boundaries, but Jackboys 2 proves he’d rather play it safe.

 It didn’t impress me, but it didn’t surprise me either. Travis knows his lane and rarely leaves it. While I won’t be revisiting the full project, a couple of songs might make it to my playlist.

Ray J Calls Himself An Embarrassment, Says He No Longer Talks To Brandy

By: London JennnCategory: News

Ray J opened up about his fractured relationship with his sister, Brandy Norwood, and said he feels like a disappointment to his family during a revealing appearance on the “Drop the Lo” podcast, hosted by Evelyn Lozada and her daughter, Shaniece Hairston.

The singer and entrepreneur opened up when asked about his current standing with his sister, saying, “I love my sister. But I’m an embarrassment… to them.”

He confirmed they’re not on speaking terms and pointed to long-standing family tensions and a lingering sense of not fitting in.

When asked directly if he felt accepted by his family, Ray J responded, “I never wanted to be accepted. I just feel like I’m an embarrassment.”

Despite the silence between them, he said his children still have a strong bond with Brandy and her daughter.

Ray J also expressed frustration with how he feels boxed in by his family’s expectations.

“You want me to be something else, but I’m superseding everything y’all doing,” he declared, pushing back at the idea that he should change who he is to gain approval.

The comments sparked a wave of reactions online, with some calling out Ray J’s tone and others sympathizing with the family drama.

One user wrote, “The arrogance is wild… He will NEVER have the type of positive and constructive impact that Brandy has had on anything.”

Another added, “Mind you he’s 44 still acting 24.” A third chimed in, “Ray J is the perfect example of parents loving the son and raising the daughter.”

Wu-Tang Clan Close Out Final Tour With Star-Studded Farewell In Philadelphia

By: London JennnCategory: News

Wu-Tang Clan brought their legendary run to a close with a sold-out finale in Philadelphia on Friday (July 18), wrapping their last-ever tour, Wu-Tang Forever: The Final Chamber, with a night packed with nostalgia and surprise guests.

All nine surviving core members — RZA, GZA, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, Method Man, Inspectah Deck, U-God, Masta Killa and Cappadonna — hit the Wells Fargo Center stage, joined by Young Dirty Bastard, who honored his late father, Ol’ Dirty Bastard, with a high-energy tribute.

The Philadelphia stop capped a 27-city North American run that began June 6 and marked the final time the whole group would tour together.

The crowd got more than they bargained for when surprise guests Ms. Lauryn Hill, LL Cool J and hometown hero Freeway popped up to celebrate the moment.

The setlist pulled from Wu-Tang’s deep catalog, with anthems like “C.R.E.A.M.,” “Triumph,” “Shimmy Shimmy Ya” and “Ice Cream” igniting the crowd.

Run the Jewels opened each night of the tour, setting the tone with their own hard-hitting set.

Just two days earlier, Wu-Tang played their final New York City show at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday (July 16), where they were joined by Redman, Lil Kim, The LOX, Mobb Deep, Slick Rick, SWV and more — a nod to their deep roots in New York Hip-Hop.

Throughout the tour, RZA and other members reminded audiences that this would be the group’s final full-scale tour and thanked supporters for riding with them for more than 30 years.

Though this marks the end of the road for Wu-Tang Clan’s touring days as a whole unit, they hinted at what’s next: a possible Las Vegas residency, a documentary and memoirs are all in the works.

Wu-Tang Clan’s final tour performance took place Friday (July 18) in Philadelphia.

DC Young Fly Calls Out Rick Ross For Leaving Black Podcast For White One

By: London JennnCategory: News

DC Young Fly called out Rick Ross for ghosting an interview on the 85 South Show and then giving an in-depth sit-down to a white-owned podcast, reigniting a years-old moment that never quite sat right with him.

The tension dates back to 2021, when Ross abruptly walked off the set mid-interview during a taping of the 85 South Show, hosted by DC Young Fly, Karlous Miller and Chico Bean. No explanation. No heads-up. Just gone.

But what really got under DC’s skin? Ross later gave what DC described as a “respectful and full” interview on another podcast—one not Black-owned—where he even addressed topics the 85 South crew didn’t touch, like his past as a correctional officer.

Speaking on the “Rory and Mal” podcast, DC explained his resentment. “It’s the fact that you left our show and went and did a white podcast and did a full-blown interview,” he said. “And they asked you the questions that we didn’t even ask you.”

Ross tried to brush it off on Instagram, saying he showed up to the 85 South Show “to show love” and left because of “urgent matters.” 

He joked about wasting a Gucci jacket on the shoot and not having lemon pepper wings from Wingstop, the chain he’s famously affiliated with.

DC Young Fly Responds To Rick Ross

Nonetheless, DC wasn’t buying it.

He responded on Instagram, pointing out that every guest, including the likes of Snoop Dogg, Busta Rhymes, T.I. and Boosie, has appeared on the show for free. 

“U kno it’s all love but nobody gets paid cause the culture bigger than the money!!!!” he wrote on Instagram. “The impact we make last a LIFE TIME!!! Our doors is always open OG.”

He also clapped back at Ross’s food complaint, saying there were “200 lemon pepper wings in the back” and even joked about buying the rapper’s “wasted” Gucci jacket for his son.

DC made it clear there’s no beef, just a matter of respect. “If you got somewhere to go, just let us know how much time you got so we can get the best out of it,” he said. “Don’t just leave.”

Ray Vaughn Mocks Joey Bada$$ “ABK” Diss With Brutal Clapback

By: London JennnCategory: News

Ray Vaughn wasted no time clowning Joey Bada$$ over his new diss track “ABK,” roasting the single on Twitter Saturday (July 19) with memes and a jab comparing it to a Will Smith freestyle.

The West Coast rapper didn’t stop there. He warned his peers to steer clear of the beef, suggesting Joey would play victim.

“I don’t want nobody in Cali gettin in,” Vaughn posted. “Cause he gone cry 20v1.”

After Joey’s supporters pushed back online, Vaughn doubled down with a smirk. “Okay I’m done trollin [crying laughing emoji] got yall in a uproar,” he wrote.

One user tried to dismiss him with a blunt “nobody cares about u.” Vaughn clapped back by posting a screenshot of Joey’s YouTube stats for “ABK,” which had pulled in just 42,000 views in two days.

“Dat man got 42k views in 2 days on a diss,” Vaughn replied. “He needs me to respond to sell that album. They care about me.”

When another user accused him of using the feud for attention, Vaughn pushed back. “No. If I wanted to clout chase I could’ve held my project til he dropped his Red B######## I knew it was comin then disses then dropped mid beef ! I didn’t. It was based on sportsmanship for me.”

Joey Bada$$ released “ABK” on Friday (July 18) as the lead single from his upcoming album Lonely at the Top. He premiered the track with a performance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!

The song, short for “Anybody Killer,” is a hard-hitting New York anthem that takes aim at Vaughn and other West Coast rappers.

Joey Bada$$ & Ray Vaughn Trade Shots In Coast To Coast Rap Clash

Joey leans into the East Coast vs. West Coast dynamic with lines like “It’s the Beast Coast boogeyman, steppin’ in my Timberlands” and “thought I was light work, so they sent their little mans to kill me.”

He also throws shade with the line, “They tried to send the G-League n##### after the All-Star,” and revives the “TDEast” diss to needle his rivals.

The two rappers have been trading disses since early 2025, with Joey launching the first shot on “The Ruler’s Back.” Vaughn fired back with “Crashout Heritage,” and the beef escalated from there.

Joey’s “MY TOWN” and Vaughn’s “Golden Eye” kept the tension going, eventually drawing in other artists and turning the feud into a full-blown coast-to-coast standoff.

Nas Versus Jim Jones: Why This “Beef” Isn’t What People Want

By: Houston WilliamsCategory: Rumors

There’s something that’s been bubbling under the surface, and I wasn’t gonna say much. But now that the cat’s out of the bag, I might as well speak on it.

Nas and Raekwon are a dynamic duo that Hip-Hop needs. They never miss. Every time they link up, it’s magic. Honestly, if they ever decided to do a joint album, it could be legendary.

Raekwon just dropped his latest album, The Emperor’s New Clothes, and it’s fire. It hit right after that new Clipse release, and it’s continuing the great year for the culture. But you know how it goes… whenever something dope drops, there’s always a little mess in the mix.

Nas appears on a track with Raekwon, “The Omereta,” and that song alone is already a standout. When I first heard it, I was floored. But then another Nas verse surfaced. This one was vicious, full on fury. It started spreading fast. And as it made its rounds online, people started dissecting it, speculating that Nas was throwing shots at Jim Jones.

Now, as you probably remember, Jim had a lot to say about Nas earlier this year. That’s a whole other story. But Nas never responded, at least, not publicly. So naturally, folks thought this unreleased verse was a delayed haymaker aimed at the Harlem Diplomat. The internet led with it being a shot.

But let me set the record straight. I’ve got trusted sources who made it clear that this was not a diss to Jim Jones. Nas wasn’t trying to start anything messy. That’s not the space he’s in right now. According to people close to the situation, including Scram Jones and song’s producer Nottz, the innanet is all wrong. The verse was recorded way before Jim made his comments. It just happened to resurface after all that drama, which made it look like a response.

Well, because of the perceived beef, that powerful verse didn’t make the final cut. Which is a shame, because what we heard was raw, unfiltered Nas. This is the kind of verse us fans live for. Still, the version that did make the album is dope in its own right. The project as a whole is phenomenal too. Shout out to Rae!

Not everything needs to be a diss. Sometimes rappers are just rapping. As a community, maybe we need to stop jumping to conclusions and let the music be the music.

Nas knew how things might be interpreted. That’s why he didn’t want that verse out there in the first place. And yet, it somehow leaked. (That’s another story for another day.)

There’s been a lot of quiet damage control behind the scenes to make sure this doesn’t spiral into some unnecessary crap. And while we all love a good lyrical war, this just ain’t that. So let’s not turn it into something it’s not.

Let the art speak. Peace to Nas. Peace to Rae. And peace to Jim.

Cheating CEO Resigns After Viral Coldplay Video Scandal

By: Mike WinslowCategory: News

Andy Byron stepped down as CEO of Astronomer after a viral video showed him in an intimate moment with the company’s chief people officer during a Coldplay concert in Massachusetts.

The clip, captured by a concertgoer and later broadcast on massive venue screens, showed Byron and Kristen Cabot with their arms around each other.

The moment quickly turned awkward when Cabot covered her face and Byron dropped to the floor as the crowd reacted. Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, narrating the scene live, quipped, “Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy.”

The video, posted by TikTok user Grace Springer under the handle @instaagrace, exploded online, racking up over 100 million views and turning a night of live music into a corporate PR nightmare.

Astronomer, a New York-based tech firm specializing in DataOps, confirmed Byron’s departure in a statement.

“Andy Byron has tendered his resignation, and the Board of Directors has accepted.”

The company added, “Before this week, we were known as a pioneer in the DataOps space. While awareness of our company may have changed overnight, our product and our work for our customers have not.”

Co-founder Pete DeJoy will step in as interim CEO while the company begins its search for a permanent replacement.

The incident took place during Coldplay’s concert in Massachusetts and was filmed by venue staff, who projected the footage onto large screens for the audience.

The moment, meant to spotlight concertgoers, instead exposed a private interaction that quickly went viral.

Lizzo Explains How She Rapped With No Filter On Latest Mixtape

By: AllHipHop StaffCategory: News

Lizzo cut loose on her third mixtape, My Face Hurts From Smiling, by ditching pop polish and refusing to revise her lyrics, thereby pushing her Hip-Hop persona to the forefront.

In a Billboard interview, Lizzo explained she normally reshapes her lyrics when crafting pop tracks, but this project was a different story.

“That’s how I start with everything, it’s like a freestyle and it’s typically kind of rappity, and then I add melody, and then I go in and adjust the lyrics and then be like, can you say this in pop music?” she said.

For My Face Hurts From Smiling, which dropped last month, she made a conscious decision to let her lyrics lead without a filter.

“I think that was the biggest thing, like with this project, I’m like, the first thing that comes out my mouth Imma say it. I’m not gonna edit myself,” she added.

The mixtape, which highlights Lizzo’s rap roots more directly than her previous LPs, also features a guest appearance from SZA on the song “IRL.”

The duo’s connection goes deeper than the music.

“There’s a lot of like genuine support and she’s one of the only people I can text at three in the morning when I’m crashing out,” said Lizzo. “I really appreciate her ’cause she understands, and I think it’s really hard for you to have someone in your life who’s known you for a long time and also understands the world you’re in.”

The project comes on the heels of Lizzo wrapping her fifth studio album Love in Real Life, which she confirmed she finished earlier this year.

Although she has already released the singles “Love in Real Life” and “Still Bad,” there’s no confirmed release date for the whole album.

The mixtape My Face Hurts From Smiling was released in April.

EXCLUSIVE: Sean Kingston’s Mom To Be Kicked Out Of U.S., Begs Judge For Light Prison Sentence

By: Grouchy Greg Watkins (@GrouchyGreg)Category: Exclusives

Janice Turner pleaded with a federal judge for mercy as she awaits sentencing in a wire fraud conviction that could send her to prison for decades.

The 62-year-old mother of Sean Kingston asked the court for compassion in a formal motion filed ahead of her sentencing on August 28.

Convicted in March 2025, Turner was found guilty of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and four counts of wire fraud. She now faces up to 20 years on each count.

Prosecutors claim she helped orchestrate an elaborate ruse using forged financial transactions and her son’s celebrity status to illegally acquire over $1 million worth of high-end merchandise, including luxury vehicles, electronics, and jewelry.

Turner is asking for no more than 30 months behind bars, citing her poor health, limited criminal background, and lack of personal profit from the fraud scheme.

Her attorneys argued that the long-term penalty she faces is excessive given the circumstances.

“A sentence of thirty (30) months or less will serve the purposes of sentencing by satisfying the need for deterrence,” the filing states, noting Turner did not benefit financially.

During the trial, the judge labeled Turner the “fixer” and “nerve center” of the operation, which involved convincing retailers to release goods without payment.

Sean Kingston did not testify in his own defense. Turner, however, admitted to making fake wire transfers.

Though both were found guilty, Turner’s consequences stretch beyond prison.

After her prison sentence, Turner is set to be deported to Jamaica, losing her U.S. residency and creating what her defense team describes as “permanent separation from her family.”

Given those stakes, Turner is requesting to be placed in a federal facility as close to Miami as possible to allow for family visits. The nearest women’s prison is located in Tallahassee, nearly 500 miles away.

Letters submitted on her behalf portray her as a kind and service-driven woman who has helped others through her community work. The defense has leaned heavily into her age and declining health, hoping it will influence the court’s final decision.

Turner will learn her fate when she returns to court on July 23, 2025.

Fat Joe Calls French Montana “Delusional” Over Hit Song Drama

By: London JennnCategory: News

Fat Joe called out French Montana during a recent episode of the “Joe & Jada” podcast, clowning him for overstating his role in their Grammy-nominated hit “All The Way Up.”

The Bronx rapper took a playful yet pointed jab at his longtime collaborator, saying French has been talking like he carried the track solo.

“You know your man French Montana, that n#### delusional man,” Joe said with a laugh. “We did ‘All The Way Up’ with French Montana. That boy, he be talking about it’s that golden voice… He just take too much credit for it. There’s a lot of n##### signed to delusional records. I’m being honest with you.”

The track, which also features Remy Ma, became a major success in 2016, earning Grammy nominations for Best Rap Performance and Best Rap Song. But behind the accolades, the song has been the center of a messy credit tug-of-war.

Joe’s remarks come amid ongoing legal tensions. Miami rapper Fly Havana has accused both Joe and French Montana of excluding him from the song’s creation credits and profits.

The active lawsuit claims Havana co-wrote the track but was never properly acknowledged or paid. While the legal battle continues, Joe has consistently recognized French’s contribution but maintains that the credit should be shared equally.

He’s made it clear that French’s narrative doesn’t match the reality of how the song came together.

Meanwhile, Joe and Jadakiss have been making waves with their “Joe & Jada” podcast.

Their recent interview with Clipse — the duo of Pusha T and Malice — went viral after they previewed a track from the group’s upcoming album Let God Sort Em Out.

In a clip shared online, Joe and Jada react to “Chains & Whips” featuring Kendrick Lamar, with the caption, “@jadakiss face says it all @clipse and @kendricklamar went CRAZY on this.”

Nicki Minaj Gets Congressional Support After Alleged Threat From TDE Affiliate

By: London JennnCategory: News

Nicki Minaj called out alleged threats and RICO-level corruption in Hip-Hop and got a swift response from Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, who pledged to involve law enforcement and ensure her safety.

The rapper took to social media on Friday (July 18) after a livestream comment from Top Dawg Entertainment affiliate DJ MackWop. Minaj interpreted the remark as a threat and demanded federal scrutiny into what she described as “shady business” in the music industry.

Luna, a staunch conservative and vocal Trump supporter, didn’t hesitate. She responded directly to Minaj on X (Twitter_, writing, “Please text my cell, I will forward this to law enforcement immediately. Threats of violence and assassination should be taken very seriously. Hope you’re ok, we’ll talk soon @nickiminaj.”

The two spoke privately, and Luna later confirmed their conversation publicly, saying she would do everything in her power to protect Minaj. She also addressed the broader allegations of criminal activity in the rap world.

“We take threats of violence and assassination very seriously,” Luna added. “RICO is also illegal. I am deeply concerned that there has been unchecked corruption within certain aspects of the rap industry. Artists should be respected and not afraid of managers, labels, etc.”

Minaj replied with gratitude, tweeting, “Thank you for your time & attention to these matters as it relates to these thugs.”

Social media reaction was divided. Some users applauded Minaj for speaking up and involving authorities, while others compared her to Azealia Banks, suggesting she was spiraling into conspiratorial internet drama.

Nicki Minaj Announces She’s Snitching Over Livestream Remarks

The controversy stems from a livestream where DJ MackWop made a vague comment that Nicki Minaj perceived as threatening.

She didn’t hold back, connecting the moment to a larger pattern of intimidation and misconduct in the industry — and calling for a federal investigation amid her rants about JAY-Z and Roc Nation.

“It’s SNITCHING TIME,” she wrote after calling on authorities to act.

Jonathan Majors Teases Pregnancy Rumors With Meagan Good During Live Workout

By: London JennnCategory: AHHplus

Jonathan Majors tossed fuel on the baby rumor fire when he casually addressed speculation about Meagan Good being pregnant during the couple’s Instagram Live workout session earlier this week.

The actor set tongues wagging, responding to a user in the live chat questioning Good’s appearance. 

“Who knows if she’s pregnant?” he said. “I can’t call it.”

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by #1 SOURCE FOR Meagan Good News (@msgoodfans)

The cryptic remark came as the two promoted their new wellness brand while dressed in matching fitness gear. Good’s toned appearance didn’t offer any obvious clues, but her surprised expression after Major’s comment had viewers reading between the lines.

The couple didn’t confirm or deny anything, but the timing of the comment—paired with a red carpet interview from the same day—only added to the buzz. 

Speaking to ABC 3340 News, Good said, “We’re working on that right now,” when talking about having a family. 

She added she feels “completely at home and completely peaceful” in their relationship and emphasized their bond by saying, “We’ve already been through the worst, so there’s nothing we can’t handle.”

Good also praised Majors’ parenting skills, saying, “I think he’s a phenomenal father,” which many took as another hint that the couple is preparing to expand their family.

The speculation isn’t new. Earlier this year, both Majors and Good dropped subtle clues about wanting children. Majors referred to married life as “leveling up,” while Good offered vague responses when asked directly about having a child.

As of Friday (July 19), there’s still no official word from the couple on whether a baby is on the way.

Jonathan Majors & Meagan Good Tie The Knot

Majors and Good tied the knot in March 2025 in a private ceremony at their Los Angeles home. The only attendees were their mothers—Majors’ mom, a pastor, officiated the wedding, while Good’s mother served as the witness.

They announced their engagement in November 2024 at the EBONY Power 100 Gala, where Good debuted her ring. 

The relationship began in May 2023, going public during a turbulent time for Majors, who was facing legal issues at the time. Good stood by him throughout his trial, and the two reportedly moved in together before marrying.

This marks Majors’ first marriage and Good’s second. She was previously married to DeVon Franklin until their divorce in 2022.

Donald Trump Hits “Wall Street Journal” With $10 Billion Defamation Lawsuit Over Epstein Letter Claim

By: London JennnCategory: AHHplus

Donald Trump launched a $10 billion defamation lawsuit against The Wall Street Journal and its parent companies in Miami federal court, accusing the publication of falsely linking him to a risqué birthday letter allegedly sent to Jeffrey Epstein.

The complaint, filed Tuesday (July 18), names The Wall Street Journal, Dow Jones, News Corp, owner Rupert Murdoch and two of the paper’s reporters, claiming they published a “false, defamatory, unsubstantiated, and disparaging” story that Trump says never should have seen the light of day.

At the center of the suit is a 2003 letter WSJ reported was written by Trump to Epstein for his 50th birthday.

The article claimed the note was part of a leather-bound album curated by Ghislaine Maxwell, which allegedly included a nude sketch and suggestive remarks.

Trump flat-out denied ever writing such a letter, calling it “FAKE.”

He also took a direct shot at Murdoch, saying he looked forward to seeing him on the witness stand.

“We have just filed a POWERHOUSE Lawsuit,” Trump declared, before pivoting into a broader attack on the media. “This lawsuit is filed not only on behalf of your favorite President, ME, but also in order to continue standing up for ALL Americans who will no longer tolerate the abusive wrongdoings of the Fake News Media.”

The lawsuit accuses the Journal of “clear journalistic failures” and claims the story caused Trump significant financial and reputational damage.

Meanwhile, Trump is also calling for the release of sealed grand jury records tied to the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein.

Donald Trump’s War On The Media

This legal battle is the latest in a string of controversial lawsuits Trump has filed against major media outlets. He previously sued CBS News and ABC News, including a $20 billion claim against CBS over an edited 60 Minutes interview. He’s also reached settlements with Paramount and Disney, each reportedly paying him $16 million.

Critics argue Trump’s legal blitz is part of a broader campaign to intimidate the press. Advocacy groups warn that his tactics, combined with media companies’ willingness to settle, could chill reporting and erode First Amendment protections.

Trump has also targeted outlets like PBS and NPR, taking steps to cut federal funding, over coverage that didn’t align with his narrative. He continues to label journalists who challenge him as “enemies of the people” and threatens lawsuits or regulatory action in response to stories he dislikes.

By: London JennnCategory: News

Tyler, The Creator stunned the crowd at his Brooklyn concert Friday night (July 18) by revealing his ninth studio album, Don’t Tap the Glass, will arrive Monday (July 21) through Columbia Records—less than a year after his last release.

The announcement came via signage at the show and a swift update to his Golf Wang website, which now features fresh merchandise tied to the new project, including vinyl, tees and hats.

Don’t Tap the Glass follows 2024’s Chromakopia, marking the first time in Tyler’s career that he has released albums in back-to-back years.

Known for switching up his sound and aesthetic with each era, Tyler has hinted this record will introduce a new character and sonic direction.

In the weeks leading up to the reveal, Tyler teased fans with cryptic visuals and subtle clues online and during live shows. The clues had many speculating that something was brewing, but few expected an album announcement to land mid-tour.

Rumors about guest features have been swirling, especially after recent onstage appearances with Kendrick Lamar and Doechii. Pusha T also added fuel to the fire with a social media post reacting to Tyler’s teaser, though no official tracklist or lineup has been confirmed.

The surprise drop strategy has sparked a wave of reactions online. One user wrote, “CHROMAKOPIA dropped less than 9 months ago. Tyler, The Creator kept tradition dropping every other year from 2009-2021, each album having their own respective rollout. Now for the first time ever in his career he’s surprise dropping an album, on BACK TO BACK years… We won man.” Another added, “Tyler dropping two album in two years was never on my list.”

Tyler is currently finishing the North American leg of his Chromakopia world tour, with international dates in Australia and Asia set to follow.

Robbie Pardlo Dead At 46: City High Singer Remembered For Early 2000s R&B Hits

By: London JennnCategory: News

Robbie Pardlo, the voice behind City High’s chart-topping anthem “What Would You Do?” died Tuesday (July 17) at age 46 in Willingboro, New Jersey, surrounded by loved ones.

The cause of death has not been officially disclosed. While some reports have pointed to heart failure, his family has not confirmed any details.

Pardlo rose to fame in the early 2000s as one-third of City High alongside Claudette Ortiz and Ryan Toby.

Their debut single “What Would You Do?” became a cultural staple, peaking at No. 8 on the Billboard Hot 100 and earning a Grammy nomination for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group in 2002.

Their follow-up hit “Caramel” also cracked the Top 20 and featured a remix with rapper Eve.

After the group disbanded, Pardlo continued working in music. He performed with the group First Take and collaborated with artists like Whitney Houston and Lil Kim.

A representative for the singer confirmed his passing to TMZ, adding that the family is planning memorial services and public tributes, with details to be announced soon.

Pardlo is survived by his wife, Anika, their two children, Lyric and Chord-Andrew, his mother, Marion and his brother, Gregory Pardlo—a Pulitzer Prize-winning poet.

Known for his love of storytelling through music, Pardlo helped shape a moment in early 2000s R&B and Hip-Hop that still resonates. City High’s music tackled real-life issues with honesty and emotion, and their lone album remains a time capsule of that era.

As of now, Ortiz, Toby and Wyclef Jean—who signed the group to his Booga Basement label—have not made public statements.

City High’s only album, released in May 2001, was praised for its raw lyrics and genre-blending sound. “What Would You Do?” originally appeared on the 1999 film “Life” soundtrack before becoming a breakout hit.

Memorial details are expected to be shared by the family in the coming days.

AllhipHop extends condolences to Pardlo’s family and loved ones.

By: London JennnCategory: News

Claressa Shields just threw down a massive challenge to Laila Ali with a $15 million offer to settle their long-standing rivalry in the ring.

Shields, the undefeated three-division world champion and two-time Olympic gold medalist, announced in a video that the money is ready and she’s waiting on Ali to accept.

“We got the $15 million!” Shields announced. “Let’s make a fight between me and you. The best versus the best. The GWOAT versus Muhammad Ali’s daughter, Laila Ali. Let’s make it happen.”

The move comes after Ali recently addressed rumors about a potential comeback, saying during an interview with Fight Hub TV, “Where’d that rumor come from? The rumor I heard was that I said, ‘Unless somebody had $15 or $20 million, don’t even call me about this.’ That’s all I heard! Unless somebody calls ME and says they have it, we’re not even going to have this conversation. I’m not trying to come back and fight, but if somebody were to offer that kind of money I’d actually have to think about it.”

Ali, 47, retired from boxing with an unblemished 24-0 record and has long maintained she wouldn’t return unless the payday was massive. Shields, 30, has spent years calling herself the GWOAT—Greatest Woman of All Time—and has often taken aim at Ali’s legacy.

Claressa Sheilds Reacts To Laila Ali Addressing Age Difference

Their back-and-forth has simmered for years, but Shields’ latest move may be the closest the sport has come to seeing the two icons face off. She even reposted a clip of Ali discussing their age gap with a fan comment that read, “For years, Laila Ali, while retired, has been throwing shade and talking trash about Claressa Shields. Apparently, she wants the smoke. I don’t want to hear anyone talking about Claressa is picking on an old lady.”

Shields added, “Imma leave this right here.”

Despite the buzz, no contract has been signed and no date has been set. But Shields’ team has confirmed the money is real and the offer is on the table.

In the meantime, Shields is set to defend her undisputed heavyweight crown against Lani Daniels on Saturday, July 26, 2025, at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit.
