EXCLUSIVE: Damon Dash Accused Of Dodging Payments, More Creditors Try To Seize Assets

Damon Dash faces another financial crisis as author and entrepreneur Edwyna Brooks moves to seize his assets after securing a $78,289.57 judgment against him.

Brooks successfully sued Dash for copyright infringement in 2019 and asked a judge to auction off his stakes in several companies, including Poppington LLC, The Dash Group LLC, and DGCO LLC.

The legal action stems from Brooks’ lawsuit against Dash, where she accused him of unlawfully marketing and distributing her book series Mafietta without permission.

Her court victory secured a $300,000 judgment, but after years of unsuccessful collection efforts, Brooks is now escalating her fight to claim what she is owed.

She isn’t stopping at Dash’s corporate holdings.

Brooks also demands that U.S. Marshals auction Poppington’s intellectual property, including film rights to Honor Up, Too Honorable, and We Went to China.

If successful, the move could strip Dash and his longtime business partner Raquel Horn of significant assets tied to their production company.

Damon Dash’s troubles don’t end with Brooks.

Filmmaker Josh Webber, who won a $823,284.71 judgment against Dash for defamation and breach of contract related to the movie Dear Frank, is also hunting for Dash’s remaining assets.

Webber, who took Dash to court in 2019, intensified his legal action after Dash publicly insulted him in interviews, calling him a thief.

Webber’s legal team has already petitioned a judge to authorize the seizure of Dash’s personal assets, including high-end watches, his wedding ring and potential revenue from past film and music ventures.

His lawyers argue that Dash’s attempt to sell his Roc-A-Fella Records stake—an auction meant to generate substantial funds—did not come close to covering his debts.

Dash’s 1/3 ownership stake in Roc-A-Fella Records fetched $1 million at a federal auction in Manhattan in November 2024, but the proceeds fell short of addressing his sprawling financial obligations, which total around $8 million.

Brooks’ battle with Dash is years in the making. Despite securing a judgment in 2019, she claims Dash has dodged payment by shifting assets between businesses.

New York’s legal framework allows creditors like Brooks to force liquidation of assets, and court documents indicate she is pursuing that option to the fullest extent.

Her motion explicitly calls for Dash and Horn to hand over assets and business interests to be auctioned off publicly, ensuring some form of compensation for the outstanding judgment.

Mike Tyson Sets Record Straight On Parkinson’s Disease Rumors  

Mike Tyson is setting the record straight amid rumors he has Parkinson’s Disease following comments made by Jake Paul.  

The heavyweight boxing legend took on the YouTube personality-turned-fighter in a highly anticipated bout last year.  

While Tyson went eight full rounds with Paul, who is more than 30 years younger, the 58-year-old champ’s critics argued he should have hung his iconic gloves years ago.  

However, Paul recently claimed that Tyson was battling Parkinson’s Disease and could only return to the ring due to a mysterious “cure.”

He made the claims during a recent livestream with Adin Ross while discussing the benefits of psychedelics. 

According to Paul, smoking “toad cured Tyson’s Parkinson’s so he could come back and fight.” 

Tyson has made no secret of his experiences with frog venom (specifically from the Sonoran Desert Toad, which can be smoked to produce a short psychoactive trip) and other psychedelics.  

Tyson claims he “died” during his first experience with toad venom but described death as “beautiful.” He credits toad venom with helping him lose 100 pounds, reconnect with his family, and improve his outlook on life.   

Nonetheless, a rep for Mike Tyson denied Jake Paul’s claims, insisting, “He doesn’t have Parkinson’s or any other illness.” The rep told TMZ, “Mike is happy and perfectly healthy.” 

Despite this, the clip quickly went viral, prompting Paul to backtrack, insisting he had simply “misspoke.”  

“Bruh… Mike Tyson didn’t have no Parkinson’s,” Paul wrote alongside a clip of himself making the claim. “WTF. Why the f### is the internet so stupid for. I misspoke. Meant he used toad to heal his pain. He has spoken about it many times. Just like I do. Just like many do.” 

Kendrick Lamar Named Checked In “Black Jeopardy” Skit On “SNL”—MAGA Furious

Kenan Thompson kicked off Saturday Night Live’s 50th anniversary special with a sharp-witted quip about Kendrick Lamar as his game show host character, Darnell Hayes, welcomed audiences to another edition of “Black Jeopardy.”

“The only Jeopardy! where every single Black viewer fully understood Kendrick’s halftime performance,” Thompson joked, earning instant laughter from the crowd.

The comment was a slick nod to the ongoing conversation about Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl LIX Halftime Show performance.

Some saw Kendrick Lamar’s set as a powerful statement on racial injustice and cultural identity and defended it as a celebration of Black artistry on one of the world’s biggest stages.

Some conservative detractors criticized it as unpatriotic, while Kid Rock labeled the performance DEI turned into an “IED.”

 

The “Black Jeopardy” sketch on Saturday Night Live’s 50th anniversary featured notable legends Tracy Morgan, Leslie Jones, Eddie Murphy, Chris Rock and actor Tom Hanks.

While the opening joke set the tone for the sketch, the rest of the segment has supporters of Donald Trump fuming.

At the heart of the controversy was the return of Tom Hanks in the role of Doug, the MAGA-hat-wearing contestant first introduced in 2016. After Doug correctly answered a question about the white “Church Lady,” he ranted about faith.

“If more folks went to church, we wouldn’t be in this mess we are in now,” Doug said. But he is reluctant to shake Doug’s hand, who then offers to start a new show, “White Jeopardy.”

The original sketch, which garnered over 83 million views on SNL’s YouTube channel, had been widely praised for its satirical approach.

However, this time, some viewers found the humor had lost its edge, while others took issue with what they perceived as a mockery of Trump supporters.

Online backlash was swift, with critics calling Tom Hanks’ portrayal “racist and disgusting.”

Some conservative commentators claimed the segment misrepresented their beliefs, portraying them as out of touch with Black culture.

Pusha T & Pharrell Williams Share New Song “Mike Tyson Blow To The Face” 

Pusha T fans eager to hear his upcoming Clipse album, produced entirely by Pharrell Williams, are buzzing with excitement over a new song that surfaced online over the weekend.  

The song, titled “Mike Tyson Blow to the Face,” sees King Push and Williams join forces on the soundtrack of the legendary producer’s new short film All Day I Dream About Sport

Snippets of the track quickly went viral, with fans hyping the single, praising Pusha’s flow, and eagerly anticipating the long-awaited album. 

“We bringing real Hip-Hop back in 2025,” one fan shared. “All that other water down s### is going out the window.” 

Another added, “The wordplay and rhyme aches are amazing. Pusha is really at his best when he’s making music with Pharrell and his brother.” 

A third stated simply, “I’m actually speechless on how excited I am.” 

Pusha T’s “Mike Tyson Blow to the Face” is featured in Pharrell Williams’ 20-minute film, created with Gabriel Moses, and described as “a visual love letter to West African culture, deeply rooted in the everyday experience of life in Senegal.”

The film is available to watch free on Le Cinéma Club until Friday (February 21). 

Meanwhile, Clipse—comprised of Pusha T and No Malice—are poised to drop their first project, Let God Sort Em Out, after a 15-year hiatus.   

Pusha T and No Malice confirmed the album was complete during an interview with AllHipHop’s Chuck Creekmur last October.  

“The album’s done,” Pusha T said. “So, the album’s done, we just [handling] all the logistics right now. It’s ready. So, as soon as it’s ready, y’all getting it. That’s it.” 

Malice added, “It’s time. The album is ready. The album is right. I feel it’s something that Hip-Hop has been missing. And we got it, so we ready.” 

Viral Woman Dubbed “Queen Of Pakistan” Missing In Dubai

Onijah Andrew Robinson, the Bronx-born woman dubbed the “Queen of Pakistan” who has captivated social media, now has people worried about her fate in Dubai.

Robinson has been detained in Dubai, leaving her fate shrouded in mystery because no updates have surfaced since February 7.

She arrived in Dubai from Karachi intending to board Emirates flight EK203 to New York. However, she was escorted off an Emirates flight bound for the United States.

She had entered Dubai on an on-arrival visa and was later spotted wandering the streets before being taken into what authorities describe as “protective custody,” though details remain unclear.

Authorities have not disclosed any law violations that would justify her detention.

Reports suggest that while Onijah Andrew Robinson is on a valid visa, officials are struggling with deportation logistics due to concerns about her mental health and behavior.

Arab media also reports that airline officials have reportedly hesitated to allow her on a 15-hour flight back to the U.S., citing security issues.

Robinson’s rise to viral fame began with her controversial October 2024 trip to Pakistan, where she sought to marry 19-year-old Nidal Ahmed Memon, whom she had met online.

Her hopes for marriage crumbled when Memon’s family disapproved, leading to Robinson’s brief hospitalization in Karachi, where she was diagnosed with bipolar disorder.

Her son, Jeremiah Andrew Robinson, previously confirmed her struggles with mental health, adding more complexity to her current predicament in Dubai.

Though Robinson made headlines for requesting funds from the Pakistani government to aid the country’s rebuilding, her time abroad has been marred by legal uncertainties and health concerns.

Rumors have also circulated suggesting Robinson was once married to a cast member of VH1’s “Black Ink Crew,” a reality show centered around a Harlem-based tattoo shop.

Drake Transforms Sydney Show Into Fairytale With Huge Wedding Gift

Drake transformed an ordinary concert night into an unforgettable fairytale when he gifted a newly engaged couple a honeymoon and $25,000 after witnessing their proposal during his show in Sydney.

The Canadian rapper, currently on the Australian leg of his It’s All A Blur: Big As The What? tour, halted his set when he spotted a man getting down on one knee in the crowd.

Wasting no time, Drake had the moment broadcasted on the venue’s giant screens, ensuring that the entire arena could witness the heartfelt proposal.

As the young man presented a diamond ring to his stunned girlfriend, the crowd erupted in cheers. Her answer? A resounding yes.

“Put the ring on her, man,” Drake said with a grin. “Put that ring on her, man, you can kiss later,” he added, as the couple embraced.

Still riding the energy of the moment, the five-time Grammy winner reflected on past proposals at his shows.

“Maybe a long time ago we had somebody get married at one of our gigs. It’s been years, it’s been years,” he told fans, his voice tinged with nostalgia.

Then, in a move that sent the stadium into a frenzy, Drake turned back to the lovebirds and dropped a jaw-dropping surprise.

“Listen, from me to you, from me to you, we’re sending you on a honeymoon wherever you want to go in the world, and I’m gonna give 25k. Congratulations, congratulations,” he announced, met with deafening applause.

JAY-Z Reveals Death Threats & Financial Fallout From Dismissed Lawsuit 

JAY-Z is speaking out about the distress his family endured following the now-dismissed rape lawsuit, detailed in a declaration supporting his lawsuit against attorney Tony Buzbee. 

A Jane Doe accuser alleged JAY-Z and Diddy assaulted her at an after-party following the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards. The Hip-Hop mogul denied the claims from the outset and blasted the “frivolous, fictitious and appalling allegations,” when the suit was dismissed with prejudice last week.  

However, JAY-Z’s case against Buzbee still lingers. He recently filed a declaration detailing the harrowing experience.  

According to the filing, JAY-Z and Beyoncé have received death threats as a result of the lawsuit.  

“People have said ‘I can’t wait until you join (Combs) in prison. Then later in hell’,” the declaration reads in part. “Other comments have accused me of being a ‘satanist’, a ‘trafficker’, a ‘terrorist’, and a ‘monster’, called me the N-word and threatened violence against me and my wife, including to ‘kill’ or “execute” us.” 

JAY-Z also pointed to the timing of Buzbee’s filing, which came on the eve of the London premiere of Mufasa: The Lion King. The movie features Beyoncé and their 13-year-old daughter, Blue Ivy Carter. 

Hov notes he was “harshly criticized” for accompanying his family to the premiere. He alleged, “Buzbee purposely filed this lawsuit on the eve of my daughter’s premiere to put me in the position of having to choose between supporting my daughter or hiding to avoid the negative press coverage.” 

JAY-Z Alleges Tony Buzbee Tried To “Destroy” Him

JAY-Z considered the suit an “existential threat to my reputation” and described experiencing “mental anguish,” at Buzbee “attempting to maliciously destroy me.” 

He added, “I felt that Mr. Buzbee was placing a gun to my head that I either bow to his demands or endure personal and financial ruin.”  

Additionally, JAY-Z claims he lost $20 million in Roc Nation contracts overnight after the potential “career-ending” allegations became public. 

Meanwhile, JAY-Z blasted “1-800 lawyer” Tony Buzbee in a social media statement. He also insisted he never paid Jane Doe to drop the suit.

50 Cent Shares Cryptic Post Amid Big Meech Feud: “Can’t Press Me” 

50 Cent has been stirring up buzz with his relentless social media trolling, but in his latest post, the G-Unit boss makes it clear that no one can check him—without naming any specific targets. 

On Sunday night (February 16), 50 Cent took to Instagram, posting a photo of himself reclining in a chair with his feet propped up on a desk, casually reading a book. 

“They gonna say somebody pressed me,” he captioned the post. “You can’t press me fool. All you can do is make me nervous, and You don’t want to make me nervous, because I start doing s###. LOL.” 

Instagram/50 Cent

His post follows weeks of tension with Big Meech after the Black Mafia Family (BMF) co-founder joined forces with Rick Ross to promote his now-canceled “Welcome Back” Legacy Concert. 

Fif accused Big Meech of being a “rat” on social media, implying he cooperated with authorities. Meech denied 50 Cent’s accusations, stating he has “never folded, never told — never will.” 

The feud escalated, with 50 Cent posting mocking images and videos about Big Meech, even dragging Lil Baby into the drama.  

50 Cent claimed he helped Big Meech’s family make over $5 million through the BMF TV series and criticized him for not helping his son Lil Meech’s acting career. 

The future of 50 Cent’s Starz series BMF appears uncertain due to the tension, with 50 Cent implying Lil Meech no longer has a role on the show.

Meanwhile, 50 Cent denied any involvement in the cancellation of Big Meech’s concert. 

“I had nothing to with this,” he wrote on Instagram last week. “Please stop calling my phone. I sincerely hope you have a nice day today Happy Valentine’s Day. I’m stronger then you think I am.”

T-Pain Believes Drake & PARTYNEXTDOOR Dropped Throwaway Album

T-Pain shared his thoughts on Drake and PARTYNEXTDOOR’s new album $ome $exy $ongs 4 U, calling it a solid project but suggesting it consists of leftover tracks that failed to make the cut for their previous albums. 

The “Buy U a Drank” hitmaker opened up about the project on a recent livestream. T-Pain speculated Drake may have only recorded the album as a way to keep PARTYNEXTDOOR in the fold.  

“I feel like [Drake] recorded a bunch of s###,” he stated. T-Pain then speculated that Drake suggested to PARTY that he could “take 10 or 15 of these songs, put a verse on them,” to create a new joint album.  

Nonetheless, T-Pain clarified he wasn’t criticizing the album. 

“I’m not saying that they’re bad,” he added. “These are just songs that didn’t make albums. Or the other way around. Or PARTY came to him with an album and was like, ‘Hey Drake, could you put verses on these particular songs.’” 

Elsewhere during the stream, T-Pain claimed a reporter recently tried to twist his words to make it seem like he was trashing Drake and PARTYNEXTDOOR’s project.  

He claimed that when a TMZ reporter asked for his thoughts on the project, he responded by questioning whether they had posed the same question to Drake. 

According to T-Pain, the reporter asked “Is that a diss?” and begged for permission to publish his remarks as a diss.  

“They’re looking for something and I understand that. But the thing is, I’m a Drake fan,” T-Pain added. “I’m more of a PARTY fan than I am a Drake fan.” 

Meek Mill & Nick Cannon React To Elon Musk’s 13th Child With Hilarious Challenge 

Meek Mill and Nick Cannon had a surprising reaction to reports that Elon Musk welcomed his 13th child last year, playfully expressing their ambitions to keep up with the tech billionaire’s growing family. 

On Sunday (February 16), the entertainers hopped online with their reaction to MAGA influencer Ashley St. Clair, claiming she gave birth to Musk’s 13th child five months ago. 

Cannon, who fathered 12 kids with six women, felt inspired by the news and playfully suggested he needed to keep up. 

 Yo @elonmusk got me out here looking for my Super Suit again!” the Wild N’ Out star tweeted. “LOL Congratulations my brother!” 

Meek Mill, who shares three children with two women, also saw the news as a friendly challenge. 

He joked, “It’s no way I’m letting Elon musk have more baby mothers than me lol.” 

Meanwhile, like Meek Mill and Nick Cannon, Elon Musk’s estranged daughter, Vivian Jenna Wilson, shared an amusing reaction to her father’s alleged 13th child.  

“Wow, if I had a nickel for every time I found out I had half-siblings through Reddit, I’d have two nickels,” she shared on TikTok. ‘Which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it’s happened twice, right?”

Elon Musk Reacts To 13th Child Reports

Musk has 12 other children with three women. He has five children with his first wife, Justine Wilson, three with singer Grimes, and three with technology executive Shivon Zilis. 

St. Clair made the announcement on X on Saturday (February 15). She stated she had previously kept it private to protect the child but was revealing it due to impending tabloid exposure.  

However, Elon Musk remained cryptic about the news, neither confirming nor denying it. His initial response to a post accusing St. Clair of trying to “ensnare” him was simply, “Whoa.” 

St. Clair fired back at Elon, slamming him for engaging in online gossip while ignoring her.  

“Elon, we have been trying to communicate for the past several days and you have not responded,” she wrote. “When are you going to reply to us instead of publicly responding to smears from an individual who just posted photos of me in underwear at 15 years old?” 

St. Clair’s representative stated that she and Musk “have been privately working towards the creation of an agreement about raising their child for some time,” adding, “we are waiting for Elon to publicly acknowledge his parental role.” 

Lil Wayne’s Daughter Defends Father After Backlash Over “SNL50” Performance  

Lil Wayne’s performance at SNL50: The Anniversary Special has sparked a heated debate among fans, prompting his daughter Reginae Carter to step forward to defend the rap icon.  

Dave Chappelle introduced Weezy to the stage for Saturday Night Live’s 50th anniversary special on Sunday (February 16). He was joined by The Roots and DJ T. Lewis to perform a medley of his biggest hits, including “Uproar,” “Lollipop,” “6 Foot 7 Foot,” “Mrs. Officer” and “A Milli.”

The SNL50 special was a star-studded three-hour event on NBC and Peacock, featuring iconic sketches, musical performances, and appearances from former cast members and special guests. 

While many fans applauded Lil Wayne’s set, others found it underwhelming. Some used the Young Money founder’s performance as evidence of why he wasn’t chosen for the Super Bowl, while others went as far as claiming it outshined Kendrick Lamar’s Halftime Show

“I love Lil Wayne with my whole damn heart,” one fan shared. “But this SNL performance is making those who said he should have played the Super Bowl look even dumber.”  

“People were dead serious saying Lil Wayne should’ve done the Super Bowl halftime show over Kendrick,” added another. “Please watch this SNL performance.”  

A third declared, “This SNL performance proves that Lil Wayne shouldn’t ever do a Super Bowl.” 

However, Lil Wayne’s eldest child, Reginae Carter, fired back at the critics. 

“Yall are some d riders !” she wrote on Instagram. “My dad been having fun performing for years ! He is truly himself when he hit the stage . Go play with yall mf kids .. he collected a check after this .. what yall get for hating? Not a damn thing!”

Baby Making Machine Elon Musk Outed As Father Of 13th Child

Elon Musk addressed swirling speculation Saturday after conservative influencer Ashley St Clair alleged she gave birth to his child five months ago.

The billionaire responded with a single-word reaction on X, the social media platform he owns after a post claimed St Clair had been strategizing for years to have his child.

“Whoa,” Elon Musk wrote in response to a user’s post that read, “Ashley St Clair plotted for half a decade to ensnare Elon Musk.”

St Clair, an author and online personality, quickly retorted, criticizing Musk for engaging with internet chatter instead of addressing her directly.

“Elon, we have been trying to communicate for the past several days and you have not responded. When are you going to reply to us instead of publicly responding to smears from an individual who just posted photos of me in underwear at 15 years old?” she wrote.

St Clair’s claim, first reported by the New York Post, suggests she and Musk share a 5-month-old child. Her representative, Brian Glicklich, released a statement on X, saying both parties have been negotiating a co-parenting agreement.

“Ashley & Elon have been privately working towards the creation of an agreement about raising their child for some time,” Glicklich posted. “We are waiting for Elon to publicly acknowledge his parental role with Ashley, to end unwarranted speculation, and Ashley trusts that Elon intends to finish their agreement quickly, in the best interests of the wellbeing and security of the child they share.”

Elon Musk, already a father of 12 with three different women, has not publicly confirmed St Clair’s assertion.

The Tesla and SpaceX CEO is known for embracing fatherhood, often discussing his views on population growth and the importance of having large families.

The situation marks yet another chapter in Musk’s widely scrutinized personal life, which has frequently played out in public view. While he has not disputed St Clair’s claims outright, his brief reaction leaves more questions than answers about their relationship and the child.

Chris Rock Turns 60 With Star-Studded Birthday Bash

Chris Rock rang in his 60th birthday surrounded by an array of A-listers, who gathered at the exclusive Crane Club in New York City to celebrate the milestone.

The legendary comedian, who reached the big 6-0 earlier this month, pulled out all the stops for a lavish night of revelry in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood.

The guest list read like a Hollywood Walk of Fame. Cher, accompanied by her rapper boyfriend Alexander “AE” Edwards, made a grand entrance, turning heads as she arrived at the high-profile soirée.

Madonna, never one to shy away from a spectacle, entered on the arm of soccer player Akeem Morris, her rumored boy toy since last year, whom she married in 2022.

The evening’s lineup of attendees only got more impressive. Comedy powerhouse Amy Schumer was spotted making her way inside, while Tom Hanks and wife Rita Wilson brought an extra touch of Hollywood prestige. Jerry Seinfeld, known for his wit as sharp as ever, also made an appearance.

Zooey Deschanel, Kim Kardashian and her ex-boyfriend Pete Davidson rounded out the mix of comedians, actors and music legends converging to honor Rock.

Chris Rock’s celebration doubled as a warm-up for another major event—his much-anticipated appearance on SNL 50: The Anniversary Special, which aired at 8 p.m. ET on Sunday (February 16).

Rock, who was a cast member on Saturday Night Live from 1990 to 1993, paired with his breakout role as a crack addict in New Jack City, helped skyrocket him into mainstream stardom.

Guess Where Kansas City Chiefs Will Send Their Losing Super Bowl Swag?

This is a wild one. Every year, the heartbreak of a Super Bowl loss isn’t just felt by the players and the die-hard fans, it’s also stitched into thousands of t-shirts, hoodies and hats that will never see the light of day in America. That’s right, in an alternate universe, Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs just hoisted that Lombardi Trophy, but only if you’re looking at the merch.

As usual, all that championship gear for the losing team has to go somewhere. Historically, most of it gets shipped to parts of Africa and other regions where people are in need of clothing. This year, the Chiefs’ almost victory swag is reportedly headed straight to Uganda. Now, let’s be real—while it’s great that people in need are getting new clothes, isn’t it just a little tragic that they’re being dressed as losers? Ugandans are winners!

Why not just send them some Eagles gear instead? And honestly, that’s the real conversation we need to be having. If we’re going to outfit an entire nation, shouldn’t it be in the name of winners? Why not celebrate the Philadelphia Eagles’ undeniable greatness with a global fashion statement? I say, let’s mass-produce Eagles merch and send it all over the world—Africa, Asia, Europe—everywhere. Imagine the entire continent rocking Jalen Hurts jerseys, a global testament to perseverance, resilience, and a team that represents the best in humanity! Can you tell I am an Eagles fan?

By the way, The Chiefs’ Travis Kelce has some decisions to make. Word on the block is he may be considering retirement.  I think he may go so that they can make room for a younger, cheaper talent. One has to wonder—will Kansas City make tough decisions to come back stronger next year? The pressure isn’t going away and neither are the Eagles.

As for my people in Uganda, draped in Chiefs gear, I pray the gear does you well.

Fly Eagles Fly!

Drake Will Make History Headlining UK’s Wireless Festival Three Nights Straight

Drake will make history at the Wireless Festival in London, becoming the first artist to headline all three nights when the event returns to Finsbury Park from July 11-13, 2025.

The festival, marking its 20th anniversary, will feature the Canadian rapper delivering a fresh set each night, complete with an array of special guests.

The opening night will see Drake joined by longtime collaborator PartyNextDoor and R&B powerhouse Summer Walker.

Saturday’s performance will feature The Mandem, while the grand finale on Sunday will feature Nigerian Afrobeats star Burna Boy and dancehall icon Vybz Kartel.

The announcement is a major moment for Drake’s relationship with the UK, a connection he has long embraced both musically and culturally.

Teasers for the event include quintessential London imagery interspersed with his signature OVO owl logo, signaling a triumphant return to British soil.

Tickets for the festival go on sale February 19 at noon GMT, with demand expected to be overwhelming given both the milestone anniversary and Drake’s unprecedented triple-night billing.

Wireless Festival has firmly established itself as a premier event for Hip-Hop, R&B, and grime that draws thousands to the heart of London each year.

The 2024 edition featured heavyweight names like Nicki Minaj, Future, 21 Savage, J Hus, and Doja Cat, along with Ice Spice, Asake, Rema, Gunna, Sean Paul and Sexyy Red.

Was Cardi B Doing Post-Valentine’s Day Walk Of Shame With Stefon Diggs?

Cardi B and NFL wide receiver Stefon Diggs continue to spark romance rumors after the two were spotted at a Miami hotel early Saturday morning (February 15).

In video obtained by TMZ, the couple returned to the hotel around 1:54 am local time, presumably after spending Valentine’s Day together. Cardi is dressed in a form-fitting dress while Diggs is sporting all red, and she appears to be a little off balance. For a minute, it looks like she’s looking for something she possibly dropped in the car, but it’s unclear what is being said.

The clip comes days after they were spotted at New York City nightclub. Not long after the chatter started on social media, Cardi’s estranged husband, Offset, began firing off venomous tweets aimed at the mother of his children.

In a series of since-deleted posts, the Migos rapper once again accused Cardi B of cheating and suggested at least one of their three children doesn’t belong to him.

“We sharing,” he began. “Blood test. Butch been cheating since 2019. I ain’t tell when u did [rat emoji]. Tommy n Sammy. My new b#### badder. Had u last week by the way.”

Fans quickly suggested Offset was envious of her latest single, “Toot It Up” with Pardison Fontaine, while others simply assumed he’s another “bitter baby daddy” and bothered by the photos of her with Diggs floating around the internet.

In September 2024, shortly after announcing she’d filed for divorce,  Cardi opened about what led to the split in a livestream.

“I’m too much woman for you. … And I’ve always been too good for you. Nothing surprises me anymore. You’ve done it all, so I don’t care. Thank you for my kids, though. All three of them, I don’t regret none of them. But I regret you. I don’t regret my kids; you’re a good daddy. You’re all right.”

Offset and Cardi B’s split has been anything but amicable. Since initially announcing the breakup in August 2024, they regularly argue on social media, allowing fans a look into their toxic relationship.

By all appearances, it seems Cardi has finally moved on.

Q-Unique Teams Up With Former Korn Keyboardist For Boom Bap Anthem “It’s Not Over”

Brooklyn-bred lyricist Q-Unique is making a triumphant return with his latest single, “It’s Not Over,” a collaboration with former Korn keyboardist Zac Baird that masterfully fuses classical musicianship with raw, unapologetic Hip-Hop. The track, released via Viper Records, finds Q-Unique reinvigorated, delivering sharp, observant punchlines over Baird’s hauntingly beautiful piano and upright bass arrangements.

The song’s creation stems from a pivotal moment in Q-Unique’s career, when he found himself at a crossroads, questioning whether to continue his journey in music. A crucial pep talk from Korn’s bassist, Fieldy, became the catalyst for his resurgence.

“One of my best friends, Fieldy, told me that what I did as Q-Unique was too important to bring to an end,” the rapper revealed. “This encouraged and reinvigorated me to start a brand-new chapter.”

That new chapter includes a bold sonic evolution, drawing influence from artists like Tyler, the Creator and Kendrick Lamar while staying rooted in his signature boom bap foundation. With Zac Baird’s classical training providing an eerie yet elegant backdrop and renowned producer Scot Stalone handling the mix and additional musical contributions, “It’s Not Over” captures a perfect balance between grit and sophistication.

“Rap Attack” Founder Nasty Nes—Credited With Discovering Sir Mix-A-Lot—Dies

Rap Attack founder Nasty Nes has died. According to a Facebook post from his wife, Llola Rodriguez, he passed away on Saturday (February 15). No cause of death was given.

“With deep sadness, it is with a heavy heart that I share the passing of my beloved husband Nes Rodriguez yesterday, February 15, 2025,” she wrote. “This loss is immeasurable, and right now, I am taking the time to grieve and process this profound change. In the near future, we will share more details to honor and remember his life, but for now, I kindly ask for privacy as I navigate this difficult time. Thank you for your love, support and understanding.”

Nasty Nes’ death comes five months after his family launched a GoFundMe to help with his medical crisis. As they wrote in the description at the time, “Nes is currently battling a series of severe health issues and was hospitalized. He has recently suffered from pneumonia, a heart attack, kidney failure, sepsis, and UTI and is in the process of relearning how to walk.

“His recovery will necessitate extensive physical therapy, as well as a wheelchair or scooter for mobility, specialized rehabilitation, rest, financial strain of his medical care, combined with high living costs and inadequate health insurance, has placed him in a precarious position.”

In December 2024, Nasty Nes was well enough to provide an update and seemed to be on the road to recovery.

“This is really my first time on social media & reaching out directly to you,” he wrote. “Approximately three months ago as of early October I came close to dying due to sepsis, almost losing both kidneys & and having a mild heart attack. I’m in my early 60’s. My recovery hospitalization ended late November, but I had more medical complications after being released on November 26th that caused me to be readmitted to the ER. Your help has helped me and my family tremendously as I get better. I had planned to begin recovery therapy at home and end this GO FUND ME, but I humbly ask for your help to keep this going for a bit longer.”

Just four days ago, Nasty Nes shared an Instagram post about the new t-shirts and hoodies he was selling in an effort to cover some of his medical bills.

AllHipHop sends our condolences to Nasty Nes’ loved ones.

“Captain America: Brave New World” Is Super Safe, Classic Family Flick

Captain America: Brave New World is finally here, amid some controversy, but how is the movie? Chris “C-Boogie” Brown has the low down.

Captain America: Brave New World, the latest Marvel Cinematic Universe entry directed by Julius Onah (“The Cloverfield Paradox”), stars Anthony Mackie as the new Captain America, continuing Sam Wilson’s journey in the MCU.

The story follows Sam Wilson, who’s now working with the U.S. Government on covert missions. When newly elected President Thaddeus Ross asks him to help revive the Avengers initiative, an assassination attempt throws everything into chaos. Alongside his apprentice Joaquin Torres, Sam must uncover a conspiracy that threatens to ignite a global conflict.

The two-hour film delivers a solid mix of espionage, mystery, and political intrigue, punctuated by dynamic action sequences. It not only advances the current storyline but also cleverly ties up loose ends from previous films, including connections to 2008’s The Incredible Hulk.

The movie feels like a natural evolution from the excellent “Falcon and Winter Soldier” series (2021). Like the show, it thoughtfully explores Sam Wilson’s challenges as Captain America without the advantage of Super Soldier Serum. Fans of the series will likely find themselves right at home here.

The ensemble cast delivers strong performances across the board. Carl Lumbly returns with gravitas as Isaiah Bradley, while Giancarlo Esposito makes the most of his limited screen time as Striker. Harrison Ford brings his characteristic intensity to President Ross, but it’s Anthony Mackie who truly shines. His portrayal of Sam Wilson showcases a perfect blend of confidence, self-awareness, and charisma, making him a compelling successor to the shield.

Julius Onah’s direction, while occasionally showing inexperience with large-scale action, proves largely effective. The finale featuring Sam Wilson facing off against the Red Hulk stands as the film’s visual highlight. It’s refreshing to see a properly “RAGING” Hulk causing havoc on screen again!

The film does have its shortcomings. The plot occasionally gets bogged down in exposition, explaining MCU events for newcomers. With three antagonists and five writers involved, certain story elements feel overcomplicated. One antagonist’s visual design falls short, and some reshoots are noticeably apparent, creating slightly jarring transitions.

Despite these flaws, Captain America: Brave New World remains an entertaining addition to the MCU. While it may not reach the heights of “The Winter Soldier” (2014), it successfully captures a similar tone and delivers a satisfying superhero experience. If you’ve enjoyed Sam Wilson’s character development throughout the MCU, particularly in “Falcon and Winter Soldier,” the debut solo outing as Captain America is worth your time.

Captain America: Brave New World is now playing in theaters everywhere. 3.5 out of 5

Thin Lizzo: Singer Sparks Debate After Saying “Bye B####” To Her Old Self

Lizzo shocked her followers over the weekend by unveiling a noticeably slimmer figure in an attention-grabbing Instagram video, where she spray-painted the words “Bye B####” over an image of herself from her Special album cover.

Captioning the post “End of an era,” the Grammy-winning artist signaled a major transformation, sparking a wave of emotions across her fanbase.

Lizzo, long celebrated as a champion of body positivity, has been open about her health evolution. She has attributed her weight loss to a disciplined regime of calorie deficit, a high-protein diet, and strength training.

Lizzo firmly denied speculation that she used GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, with her trainer backing her assertion that her progress was the result of sheer hard work.

A shift in her diet also played a crucial role. After years of veganism, Lizzo transitioned to an eating plan that includes animal-based protein, which she says improved her energy levels, mental clarity, and ability to lose weight.

In January 2025, she revealed she had hit her goal, reducing her BMI by 10.5 points and shedding 16% of her body fat over two years. Known for her unapologetic embrace of self-love, Lizzo has acknowledged a shift in her perspective on body image.

She previously expressed frustration with how the body positivity movement has, in her words, been “commercialized” and “appropriated,” particularly by slimmer, white influencers.

Now, she is focusing on “body neutrality,” a philosophy that encourages people to see their physical forms as just one part of their identity, without fixation on appearance.

Lizzo’s journey has been at the heart of her creative ventures, from her reality show Lizzo’s Watch Out for the Big Grrrls to her shapewear brand Yitty, both of which promote inclusivity.

But with a growing weariness of conversations about her body dominating the narrative, her latest transformation appears to send a clear message:

The reaction online was immediate and deeply personal.

“Makes me feel kinda sad. That version of Lizzo definitely brought me so much joy and inspiration. Look forward to seeing what you have coming,” one commenter wrote. Another added, “The old you is what motivated women to love themselves.”

Others stood in full support of her journey, with one reply reading, “Look at you!! Stand tall and STRUT that health and beautiful pride. Your SOUL looks lighter, too.”
