Richie Wess Unveils New Project ‘Last Laugh’ ft. Rich The Kid, Smokepurpp & Jay Critch

Richie Wess is a boss in every aspect of the word, and he’s here to bring that same energy into the music industry. Today, he unveils his newest project

titled Last Laugh via EMPIRE, following his previous release Trained To Go via Warner Music Group/Asylum. The 11-track project features guest appearances from Rich The Kid, Smokepurpp, Jay Critch, Kuttem Reece, and his own artist Yung Dread. 

Speaking on the project, Richie states, “I feel like anytime, anybody can count you out and put you into a certain category of a certain time frame. ‘Oh man he was lit, but now…’ Everything’s about relevance and always staying current.” 

In Richie’s case, last year he went crazy on businesses. He explains, “I opened 3 food trucks, a restaurant, a recording studio… did a lot of business. While maybe one of my aspects wasn’t on music at the time: when I come back, I’m always going to get the Last Laugh. Because n*ggas still getting money, we still moving around. We can still do this in our sleep!” 

Last Laugh came into fruition in 2 weeks, after switching up his recording process from writing to freestyling off the dome.

He states, “I don’t write anymore. I used to write and think about s###, now I go in there off the top. Even the sound on this project changed how I sound sonically. Not putting too much thought into the rapping, going more into vibe and what the beat presents. Whatever vibe the beat gives you.” 

In the title track, Richie spits, “I always get the last laugh, it’s funny to me.”

Queens-born, Tampa-bred recording artist Richie Wess, the CEO of YTC Entertainment, is one of the most connected artists in the industry — all while being one of the most consistent. Coming up as one of the 3 original members of Rich The Kid’s Rich Forever imprint, along with Fat Joe being his uncle/mentor, Richie Wess Has records under his belt with everyone including Rich The Kid, SmokePurpp, Gucci Mane, Calboy, and French Montana. 

Exploding onto the scene with his “Poppin” music video, which did close to a million views in one day, Richie raps about real life experiences and events. The song was inspired by his own success as a restaurant owner and entrepreneur, with the video shot in the same location Drake and Future filmed “Life Is Good.” 

Passion is the bloodline of the music industry, and Richie Wess is the artist that will continue to keep the blood pumping.

Source Close to Kim Kardashian Speaks On Kanye West’s Visiting Rights With His Kids

After Kanye West alleged he was not allowed to attend his daughter Chicago’s birthday party, Kim Kardashian is finally speaking out. The couple is undergoing a divorce and setting up their lives post-marriage, and she believes she has the right to set up healthy boundaries.

According to sources close to the Kardashian family said that Kanye’s biggest issue is not the party, but is that he cannot come and go to Kim and the kid’s home as he pleases. The new rules are problematic for him as he believes he is in total control of his destiny.

The person said to The Sun, “Kanye has never been allowed free access to the house since they split – that’s always been very clear and agreed upon verbally.”

“He can’t just walk in there,” the source continued. “He signed over the house to her and she paid him money for it. No one is just entitled to walk in. He’s now choosing to make it a public battle – and again involve the kids.”

Kanye has made claims that Kim has gotten her security to stop him from seeing the kids.

During an interview with Hollywood Unlock, Ye said that Kim never talked to him about restrictions when he visited and that he thought he could go throughout the house as he pleased until the couple’s oldest child North told him something different.  

He said on the show, “I was like, I am the richest Black man and North’s father, right, and the security was able to stop me from going into the room with my daughter, and that had not been defined. And I am hearing that the new boyfriend [Peter Davidson] is actually in the house that I can’t even go to.”

“Security ain’t going to be in between me and my children, and my children ain’t going to be on TikTok without my permission,” Kanye added, making sure his concerns were clear.

A source said to People Magazine that Kim’s security has never stopped him from seeing his kids, “picking them up or dropping them off.”

The person said, “He just can no longer walk inside her home without her permission … [Kim] has a right to privacy and is trying to set healthy boundaries.”

Kim, according to the insider, “only wants to protect her children and ensure they have a great relationship with both parents” now that they are separated.

Kanye did get to come to the party. Rapper Travis Scott, Kylie Jenner’s baby father, gave him the address.

Prince’s Estate Worth Hundreds Of Millions After Valuation Battle

The estate of late music icon Prince has been valued at $156.4 million following a lengthy legal battle.

The “Purple Rain” hitmaker passed away in 2016 without a will, and after almost six years of assessments, all parties involved with the singer’s estate have finally agreed on its value.

The estate’s administrator, Comerica Bank & Trust, originally valued it at $82.3 million, but officials at America’s tax agency, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), countered that its value was $163.2 million.

The agreement has been cleared by Prince’s heirs, meaning the process of redistributing the estate could begin as early as next month.

“It has been a long six years,” said L. Londell McMillan, lawyer for the three heirs, in the Carver County District Court in Minnesota on Friday.

The estate will be split between three of Prince’s siblings as well as the publishing company Primary Wave, who bought out the other three heirs last year.

The three siblings have faced a long legal battle to have the estate’s value settled and redistributed, with the dispute reported to have cost millions in legal fees.

The paperwork declaring the agreement between Comerica and the IRS shows that the heirs were eager to settle, according to Variety.

Prince passed away in April 2016 at the age of 57 due to an accidental fentanyl overdose.

Lil Gnar Declares Future Is Better Than 2Pac

Back in 2018, Lil Xan learned the hard way not to disparage the late Tupac Shakur. It appears another “Lil” rapper, known as Lil Gnar, decided to share an unsolicited take about the Rock & Roll Hall of Famer too.

Lil Xan faced widespread backlash, including pushback from Atlanta-bred artists Waka Flocka Flame and T.I., for saying 2Pac made boring music. Those comments essentially halted Xan’s career, and he was never able to completely recover.

Fellow Atlanta representative Caleb “Lil Gnar” Sheppard has now placed himself in the hot seat by comparing the legendary Tupac Shakur to a 2010s-era rap star from the same city. On January 14, Gnar tweeted, “Future better den Tupac easy.”

https://twitter.com/lilgnar/status/1482085845054152704?s=20

Lil Gnar’s Twitter post ignited a firestorm of debates in the replies and quote-tweets. Some people pointed out that 2Pac has sold more albums and is considered more lyrical than Future. Other people suggested the generational divide between Pac and Future is too great to compare.

Future actually has a tribute song titled “2Pac” which lives on the critically-acclaimed Monster mixtape. That Nard & B-produced track includes Future saying, “Got bandana ’round my head like I’m 2Pac.” Future also raps, “Got a bandana ’round my head, screaming, ‘Thug life.'”

As far as Lil Gnar, the skateboarder-turned-rapper is best known for singles such as “Death Note,” “Diamond Choker” featuring Lil Uzi Vert, and “Missles” featuring Trippie Redd. Plus, Lil Gnar dropped GNAR Lif3 and Fire Hazard via 10K Projects.

Cardi B Teases Getting A Face Tattoo Of Newborn Son’s Name

Belcalis “Cardi B” Almánzar and Kiari “Offset” Cephus welcomed their first son together on September 4, 2021. The celebrity couple has yet to disclose the baby’s name, but Cardi B may announce it to the world in an untypical way.

The “Up” hitmaker took to Twitter to tell her followers about possible new body ink coming in the future. Cardi B is supposedly considering adding a new tat in celebration of her newborn.

“Random but… I’m 1% close [to] tatting my [son’s] name on my face… I really really wanna do it!” tweeted Cardi B on January 17. That tweet has collected more than 2,000 retweets and 39,000 likes.

One of Cardi B’s fans shared her interest in getting a face tattoo by potentially adding words behind their ear. The 29-year-old Grammy winner responded, “I want mine on my jaw.”

Cardi B and Offset are also parents to three-year-old Kulture Kiari Cephus. Set already has Kulture’s name tattooed on his jaw. The Migos member inked his other three children’s names on his body as well.

The public first officially learned about Cardi B’s second pregnancy in June during the 2021 BET Awards. She revealed her baby bump while performing “Type S###” with Offset, Takeoff, and Quavo of the Migos.

T.I. Calls Out Jay-Z, Nas, Lil Wayne, Kanye West & Pusha T: “Bring Them”

T.I. recently revealed that his next album, “Kill the King” will be his last, however, he still considers himself the best rapper in the business. 

He recently took to his Instagram Stories to let it be known, “ain’t nobody f###### with me.”   

“You’re talking about cutting records n####?,” he said. “You’re talking about putting s### out there? You’re talking about making some s### that’s better than anything out there man? Ain’t nobody f###### with me.”  

According to T.I., while fans may listen to other artists, it’s not because they are better than him. 

“Now you might like somebody else better, it might be somebody else, you know ‘I like this better than I like T.I.’ Okay fine, because you like them better,” he explained. “That’s cool, that’s your preference. But n#### when it comes to putting s### out, ain’t nobody f###### with me…”  

T.I. continued after escaping outside for some fresh air though his sentiment remains the same.  

“I dont give a f### about your personal opinion about how you feel about me,” T.I. said. “When it come to me behind the m############ mic n####. Put some s### to music, yeah aint nobody f###### with me n####. None of them! None of them!”  

Furthermore, T.I. said nobody has ever out-rapped him on a song, which is why other rappers refuse to work with him.  

“They don’t even want to be on the same record with me, n####, because they know they can’t f### with me. You ain’t never heard me on no record with nobody and they dusted me. N####, you ain’t never heard that n####, it ain’t ever happen n####.“  

Ultimately, Tip says only the top lyricists could test him. “Nobody’s f###### with me n####. Jay and Nas, yeah, you need to bring them,” he challenged. “Bring them n####.. That’s who you need. Jay, Nas, Wayne, Ye… Pusha T, yeah all them.“  

T.I. concluded with, “Just to know ‘damn this n#### still raw.’ Yeah, ain’t nobody f###### with me.”

However, a clip has emerged of T.I. admitting Andre 3000 “did get down on me on my record.”

Eazy-E’s Daughter Addresses Kanye West’s “Eazy” Diss Line Directed At Pete Davidson

Kanye “Ye” West is back in the news once again. The Donda album creator took aim at Pete Davidson, the rumored boyfriend of West’s estranged wife Kim Kardashian.

“God saved me from that crash, just so I can beat Pete Davidson’s ass,” raps Ye on a new song titled “Eazy.” West Coast Hip Hop veteran The Game also appears on the track.

TMZ caught up with Ebie Wright, the daughter of the late N.W.A. emcee Eric “Eazy-E” Wright, to get her thoughts on Ye and Game’s “Eazy.” Ebie expressed approval of the collaboration.

“I think it’s a great song. I’m a huge Kanye fan. I love Game. It’s an incredible record, and it was also produced by my buddy Hit-Boy. So shout out to all my guys,” said Ebie Wright.

When asked how she feels about her father’s legacy tacitly being attached to real-life personal drama, Ebie Wright stated, “The fact they sampled ‘Eazy-Duz-It’ – my father literally represents revolutionizing everything. He also represents gangsta rap.”

She continued, “What Kanye did and what he said on [‘Eazy’] doesn’t get no more gangsta than that. I’m with it. You gotta think about it. Kanye knows how to go viral. He’s also very expressive. He can’t do no wrong.”

Kanye West and The Game’s “Eazy” debuted at #2 on Spotify’s United States Top 100 daily chart with 1,071,485 streams. The single racked up 2,051,643 first-day streams on Spotify’s Global Top 100 daily chart.

Eazy-E’s “Eazy-Duz-It” is the title track for 1988’s Eazy-Duz-It album. Prior to his passing in 1995, the Ruthless Records founder released other solo efforts such as It’s On (Dr. Dre) 187um Killa in 1993 and Str8 off tha Streetz of Muthaphukkin Compton in 1996.

The Weeknd Fans Slam Gunna For Blocking ‘Dawn FM’ From Debuting At No. 1

Gunna’s DS4Ever is the most popular album in America. The Atlanta-bred rapper’s third studio LP was able to surpass The Weeknd’s Dawn FM in first-week sales.

DS4Ever opened at #1on the latest Billboard 200 album chart with 150,300 units. In contrast, Dawn FM started out with 148,000 equivalent album units.

Even though DS4Ever is Gunna’s second consecutive #1 project, some fans of The Weeknd were shocked the YSL Records representative took the top spot. Numerous upset stans expressed frustration and confusion about the outcome.

“He bought this number 1 lol,” tweeted @abelsthegoat. The @aIIyweeknd account wrote, “[Gunna] bought it. [I guess] he really needed that.” @lmaodreww posted, “Literally only staying at #1 for one week then flopping… Abel will be on top 🤣.”

There were unfounded accusations that Gunna used payola, the illegal practice of paying for songs to get airplay on commercial radio stations. Gunna appears to be unfazed by the backlash over the first-week success of DS4Ever.

Overnight, the “Pushin P” performer thanked his supporters. Gunna used his Instagram page to express gratitude to anyone that helped DS4Ever reach #1.

“We #1 in the Fuccin WORLD Craig 🤯#DS4EVER Thanks To MY Fans My Gang & My GOD 🙏🏽 I Love u @ebsdaboss 💙🅿️,” posted Gunna on IG. He also uploaded a video of himself declaring this chart-topper is “the big one.”

Previously, Gunna scored a #1 album with 2020’s Wunna. The Weeknd has four career Number Ones on the Billboard 200 – 2015’s Beauty Behind the Madness, 2016’s Starboy, 2020’s After Hours, and 2021’s The Highlights.

Kanye West Addresses Altercation With Fan: “That Blue Covid Mask Ain’t Stop That Knockout

Kanye West has given an interview addressing the incident in which he allegedly punched an autograph seeker and the circumstances that led up to it. 

Ye is currently being investigated by the LAPD for punching 40-year-old Justin Poplawski in Los Angeles last week. Kanye spoke exclusively to Hollywood Unlocked’s Jason Lee and revealed he was “irate” with his cousin who was acting as a go-between in his communications with Kim Kardashian.  

“It was 3 a.m. in front of [Soho] Warehouse,” Kanye explained to Lee. “I’m saying, ‘You don’t know what I’m dealing with right now.’ I just finished these two songs; I came from the studio … And this dude, he just had this real attitude, like, ‘Whatchu gonna do?’”  

https://twitter.com/HipHopEsp_/status/1481781241108180995?s=20

Elsewhere in the interview, he added, “I’ma just tell you, that blue COVID mask ain’t stop that knockout.” 

Kanye West Speaks On His Issues With Kim Kardashian

Kanye West also revealed some of his issues with Kim Kardashian concerning his children. “Security aint gone be in between me and my children,” he said. “And my children aint gone be on TikTok without my permission.” 

Kim’s new boyfriend Pete Davidson was also mentioned, “I’m hearing that the new boyfriend is in the house that I can’t even go to,” said Yeezy. The Chicago native name-checked the comedian in his new song with The Game. “God saved me from that crash, just so I can beat Pete Davidson’s ass,” he raps on “Eazy.” 

The interview came just days before Kanye claimed he was shut out of daughter Chicago’s birthday party. He later revealed he attended the party after Travis Scott gave him the address. Ye also threw a separate party for his little girl.  

According to Jason Lee, Kanye West will be going to court over his children, “He’s going to fight them with everything legally and he’s going to do it very calmly,” he said. 

Meanwhile, Hollywood Unlocked says Kanye could face a maximum of six months in jail if convicted of battery.

Footage of a fight between NLE Choppa and another man is circulating on the internet. While specific details about the altercation are not clear at the moment, social media users are very interested in the matter.

Celebrity blogger Akademiks posted a video of the physical encounter at an airport. Apparently, NLE Choppa’s foe is a diehard fan of YoungBoy Never Broke Again’s 4KT crew.

The unidentified man is seen throwing hands with the Memphis-bred rapper. NLE Choppa reacted on Twitter to all of the attention surrounding the clash.

“It’s a difference from getting hit and falling then fighting in flip flops and falling on [your] own,” tweeted the “Shotta Flow” rhymer.

He continued, “I fell throwing a punch [I didn’t] get hit [until] I was [on the way] down 😂 and my backpack 20 pounds. [Buddy’s] lip [is] swole. everything I [threw] connected.”

NLE Choppa also claimed he rolled his ankle and had to put ice on the joint. The Top Shotta album creator added, “That first swing [is] what left him KNOTTED, damn that b#### was [deadly].”

Gunna Reacts As “DS4Ever” Debuts At No. 1 On Billboard 200 Chart

Gunna has edged out the Weeknd to take the number 1 spot on the Billboard 200 album chart this week. 

The projections proved correct, predicting the pair in a close fight for the number one spot. According to Billboard, DS4Ever debuted at number one with 150,300 equivalent album units earned in the U.S. The Canadian singer-songwriter earned second place with 148,000 equivalent album units earned in the U.S. in the week ending Jan. 13.  

According to MRC Data, Gunna’s 150K came almost entirely from streaming activity (144,600 streaming equivalent albums) and marked his best-ever week in terms of units earned. He registered 4,700 album sales and 1,000 track equivalent album units. 

This marks Gunna’s second chart-topping effort following Wunna and his fourth top 10 effort overall.  

The Atlanta native first topped the Billboard chart in May 2020 with his second studio album, Wunna. Three projects from Gunna’s Drip Season mixtape series have also made the top ten in previous years.  

Both Gunna and The Weeknd issued deluxe versions of their albums within days of the original release. They also both added additional tracks and Gunna’s Drake feature of “P Power” helped to increase sales.  

Gunna celebrated the win in a video posted on Instagram, giving thanks to his supporters. 

“We #1 in the Fuccin WORLD Craig 🤯#DS4EVER” he wrote in the caption. “Thanks To MY Fans My Gang & My GOD 🙏🏽 I Love u @ebsdaboss 💙🅿️” 

Geechi Gotti Named Best Battle Rapper in 2021: Wins “Champion Of The Year” Award

2021 was the most prolific year in battle rap, with more events thrown than any other time in history. With that many battles and battlers putting on, deciding who would be Champion of the Year was always going to be a tough decision.  

The panel selected by Champion’s Jay Blac took nearly eight hours of intense debate to agree on the 20 battlers who rose above all the competition in 2021. Tempers flared as the top twenty names selected by the Champion viewership were either placed on the list or failed to make the final cut.  

Each battler was judged based on set criteria – strength of schedule, impact, moments, material, consistency, and performance. In the end, there could only be one winner, and the panel decided Compton’s Geechi Gotti was the best battle rapper of 2021, making him a three-time Champion of the Year winner!  

1. Geechi Gotti 2021 Champion of the Year 

Geechi Gotti had a phenomenal 2021, battling consistently throughout the year, showing out on a number of leagues, and scoring some epic wins along the way. He sailed through URL’s Ultimate Madness 3 tournament, eventually splitting Drake’s $150,000 prize money with fellow EFB member Rum Nitty, though he narrowly won the judge’s decision. The pair put on a final that was easily one of the best battles of the year. Gotti also got a win over one of battle rap’s end game bosses – the legend Loaded Lux on the biggest card of the year, shifting the culture along the way. 

2. Eazy The Block Captain 

Eazy The Block Captain took the second spot with only four one-on-one battles, highlighting the impact of those performances and his overall 2021. The race for the top spot was a tough decision. The panel decided Gotti and Eazy won three of the six categories each but ultimately selected Geechi as the overall winner. Eazy’s 2021 was highly impressive. He had a classic with Chess, one of the very best battles of the year, and took clear wins from the likes of T-Rex and K. Shine. Eazy is also one of the few battlers to debut on URL marquee events, NOME and Summer Madness in the same year. He is ranked 9-0 on the URL app and has received the highest reactions on the app for his last five battles.

Mike Tyson Set To Fight Jake Paul In Boxing Match!

False GIFs | Tenor

UPDATE: THIS IS FALSE!

Mike Tyson said, “This is new to me. I just saw Jake in St. Barths and he never mentioned it.

Sorry guy. The old info is below.

—-

Mike Tyson and Jake Paul are set to fight in a prizefight that should net them millions.

Apparently, Jake Paul has heard the criticism that he has not for any real boxers in his short, brief fighting career. Now, he is set to fight one of the greatest fighters of all time. IRON MIKE!

The Cleveland native will go against Mike Tyson!! No, that is crazy. As you already know, Jake Paul managed to beat up and knock out Tyron Woodly in an impressive fashion. He knocked Tyron out so bad, that people thought it was fixed!

Jake Paul Knock Out GIF - Jake Paul Knock Out Tyron Woodley - Discover &  Share GIFs

In his defense, Jake Paul was set to fight Tommy Fury, the brother of Tyson Fury last year. However, because of a medical condition, the younger Fury was unable to fight. Not Jake’s fault.

Is Jake ready to fight Mike Tyson? I doubt it. However, we all know this is about money and this fight will certainly make money! So, being ready only means that he will be ready! Jake has come a long way. Mike Tyson is 55-years old and he’s about to come back around in second life if he beats this young hyena.

Just a month ago, we thought that Mike Tyson was going to fight Jake’s brother Logan but that is clearly not about to happen. By the way, they are cool. So…there’s that. We interviewed Jake and he made a couple things clear 1) his brother could not beat Floyd Mayweather and 2) that he was friends with Mike.

What do you guys think of that?

Honestly, I don’t want to see Mike lose to Jake…he’s almost 30 years younger than the Iron One! Say no! The money ain’t worth it.

NLE Choppa Gets In Scuffle At Airport! Allegedly!

NLE Choppa is one of the most interesting characters in a long time, but that also attracts another element. Clout chasers! So, it seems like NLE Choppa was in a random airport somewhere and was minding his own business. Suddenly some dude steps up to him.

He repeatedly asks him who he was! He knows who he is! I guess he did not want to accidentally assault the wrong person on camera. Once he realized what was happening, it seems like he attacked NLE Choppa. There was a huge scuffle and then he hops on camera taking credit for an illegl assault!

Look at it!

On top of that, the dude tagged NLE Choppa! What is in the Kool Aid yall drinking?

So, the rumor is this dude is a follower of NBA Youngboy and decided to physically attack a rap artist at the airport. Wild!

NLE Choppa and NBA YoungBoy used to have a business relationship that did not workout, apparently. Now, they don’t talk. Wow. And on top of that, he does not like being compared to him. I guess this rando decided to put hands on him for the clout!

What do you all think of this?

Kanye West Had Separate Party For Chicago After Birthday Controversy With Kim

Kanye West thanks Travis Scott for helping him get to his daughter Chicago’s party

Kanye West has thanked Travis Scott for inviting him to his daughter Chicago’s birthday party over the weekend after alleging he was initially shut out.

The 44-year-old rapper took to Instagram to hit out at estranged wife Kim Kardashian, who he claimed did not invite him to the four-year-old’s joint party with Scott and Kylie.

Jenner’s daughter Stormi on Saturday.
“I’m just wishin’ my daughter a public happy birthday. I wasn’t allowed to know where her party was. There’s nothin’ legal that’s sayin’ that this is the kinda games that is bein’ played,” the Donda hitmaker commented during an Instagram Live.

He continued, “It’s the kinda thing that really has affected my health for the longest, and I’m just not playin’… I’m takin’ control of my narrative this year. I’m bein’ the father, the best father, the Ye version of a father, and I’m not finna let this happen.”

The Grammy Award winner insisted he was worried that his absence would “imprint” on his daughter in a negative way.

He also criticized his estranged wife, as well as Tristan Thompson and Khloé Kardashian, for allegedly refusing to tell him where the party was being held.

Later, West returned to the social media site to credit Scott with allowing him to attend.

“I just got to shout out to Travis Scott for sending me the address and the time and making sure that I was able to spend that birthday memory with my daughter to be there with the rest of the family,” he stated.

Editors at TMZ reported that the incident was a “simple case of mixed signals,” with a source alleging Kardashian was under the impression that the two were throwing separate parties for the pre-schooler.

Kanye West eventually threw a separate bash for his daughter after spending two hours at the event.

Ice Cube To Perform At NASCAR Race In Los Angeles

Ice Cube has been booked for a NASCAR event.

The legendary rapper will perform during a race break at NASCAR’s Busch Light Clash at the Coliseum. The race is scheduled to take place at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum on February 6.

“I’ve long been a fan of NASCAR from afar, and I’ve become an even bigger fan after seeing the action in person,” Ice Cube said in a press release. “And now to perform for all of the fans at the Coliseum and for the millions watching at home, I’m excited to be part of an incredible day for NASCAR and L.A.”

Kanye West & The Game’s “Eazy” Cover Art Faces Criticism From PETA

PETA has an issue with the cover art for Kanye West and The Game’s new single “Eazy.”

The animal rights organization’s president Ingrid Newkirk condemned the photo in a statement to Billboard. Kanye West and The Game shared the cover art on their Instagram accounts before the song was released on Friday (January 14).

“The photo is reminiscent of the monkeys PETA has found, sometimes heads, sometimes hands, sometimes the whole body, in meat markets around the world,” Newkirk told Billboard. “And it makes it clear that when you remove the fur you can’t miss that there’s a person in there, that they are fellow primates, and do not belong to us to abuse for any purpose — not in laboratories, roadside zoos, movies, or meat markets.”

PETA also called out Kanye West on social media.

“The disturbing image of a skinned monkey that @kanyewest shared serves as a reminder that there’s no real difference between humans and other animals,” PETA wrote on Instagram. “Their lives aren’t easy when we abuse and kill them for food, experiments, clothing, or entertainment — they’re not ours to abuse for any reason. #EndSpeciesism.”

Kanye West and The Game’s “Eazy” collaboration featured ‘Ye taking a shot at his estranged wife’s boyfriend Pete Davidson. Yeezy rapped about beating up the comedian on the track’s second verse.

Amber Rose Retracts 2015 Tweet About Kanye And The “Kartrashians”

Amber Rose has backtracked on a controversial tweet she wrote about the Kardashians in 2015.

The comment resurfaced amid ongoing issues between Kim Kardashian and her estranged husband Kanye West, whom the 38-year-old model dated from 2008 to 2010.

In the tweet, Rose tagged the 44-year-old rapper after he went on The Breakfast Club to say that he needed to take “30 showers” after dating her.

She told the Donda hitmaker that the “Kartrashians” would “humiliate” him when “they’re done with (you)”.
After the diss began to circulate again, Amber Rose took to her Instagram Stories to disavow the tweet, calling it “immature.”

“Man F### that old ass tweet,” she began. “I never got an apology for his ’30 Showers’ comment but f### it. I started my Slutwalk and helped Millions of women around the world stand up for themselves against S### shaming so something amazing came out of it.”

She continued, “Kim nor her sisters deserved that tweet and y’all shouldn’t co-sign that either. S### was old and immature af (as f###) of me to involve the KarDASHians in this whole mess HE made.”

Rose encouraged her followers to “learn from” her mistakes and remember that “we all have kids and family’s life is hard enough right now for a lot of (people).”

“I just want to spread love and positivity,” she concluded.

In April 2021, Kardashian and West cited “irreconcilable differences” as the cause of divorce and agreed to joint custody of their four children.

Vic Mensa Reportedly Arrested For Felony Narcotics Possession

Vic Mensa was reportedly arrested while returning to the United States from Ghana.

According to TMZ, U.S. Customs Agents allegedly found Psilocybin mushrooms while searching Vic Mensa at Dulles International Airport in Virginia. He was booked for felony narcotics possession on Saturday (January 15).

Psilocybin mushrooms, also known as shrooms or magic mushrooms, are Schedule I controlled substances under federal law. But these mushrooms have been decriminalized in several cities, including Washington, D.C. The nation’s capital is less than 30 miles away from Dulles International Airport.

Authorities are testing the substance found on Vic Mensa to confirm if it is Psilocybin. The Roc Nation rapper remains in the custody of U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

Vic Mensa, whose real name is Victor Kwesi Mensah, was apprehended in the U.S. after spending several weeks in Africa. During his time in Ghana, he and Chance The Rapper met with President Nana Akufo-Addo.
