Now 50 Cent, born Curtis Jackson, is claiming the cool down is largely due to his intervention.
“I told him don’t even say nothing to him,” 50 Cenr The Wrap. “The (Cannon) record is terrible.”
He added: “You can’t argue with a fool. When you understand that a person is not registering even when they’re losing, then the argument goes forever. So you should just stop.”
Mariah began feuding with Eminem after he claimed he once had a relationship with her – which she has always denied.
In 2009, she released the hit “Obsessed,” about a man who claims to be having a relationship with her, and he fired back with the track “The Warning” later that year.
AllHipHop News) Incarcerated comedian Bill Cosby is asking judges at the Pennsylvania State Supreme Court to consider his latest appeal against his sex assault conviction.
He was sentenced to serve three-to-10 years behind bars, but Cosby has repeatedly tried and failed to have the conviction overturned, with Pennsylvania Superior Court judges unanimously shooting down claims last month suggesting the 82 year old did not receive a fair trial.
They also dismissed complaints that the Pennsylvania judge overseeing the trial should not have allowed five women to take the stand, and testify about being abused by Cosby, in a bid to prove he was a serial sexual predator.
On Thursday, his lawyers filed a new motion with officials at the state’s highest court, calling on them to review the Superior Court judges’ December decision, insisting they had been wrong to uphold his conviction on three counts of aggravated indecent assault.
In the court papers, his representatives blame the rise of the #MeToo movement for what they believe to be a bias in his case, which was taken to trial during a period of “public panic” amid the numerous exposes outing stars like Cosby and Harvey Weinstein as alleged sexual predators.
Addressing the latest developments, Cosby’s spokesman, Andrew Wyatt, explained the actor’s lawyers wanted court authorities “to review his case to consider the vital important questions about the impact of #MeToo hysteria” on the principles of the criminal justice system, reports The New York Times.
Cosby has always maintained his innocence, insisting the sex was consensual.

The internet is coming for celebrity fitness trainer, Jillian Michaels after comments she made about our favorite girl, Lizzo.
On Buzzfeed News’ “AM2DM,” Michaels made a few comments about how people are praising Lizzo’s body not knowing the health factors involved with her weight basically calling her obese. She said she doesn’t know why fans are “celebrating her body” and not her music.
“It isn’t going to be awesome if she gets diabetes,” she stated.
She also said that she and her kid loves her music but there will never be a moment when she says, “And I’m so glad that she’s overweight.”
People went in on Michaels saying she’s fat shaming Lizzo and calling her a bully. The trainer took to Instagram to I guess you can say defend her comments. She talks about how we need to take obesity seriously and how we should love and take care of our bodies.
Personally, I think Michaels is missing the whole point with Lizzo embracing her body.
Lizzo is proud of who she is and wants other girls who don’t fit what society deems are “healthy.” Everyone knows that at Lizzo doesn’t have a problem with showing off her body and dancing in front of big crowds with nothing but a thong on.
I get it, we need to all eat healthy and exercise, but don’t put the next person down while trying to prove your point. We don’t know what
Lizzo is going through personally so I don’t think it’s anyones business to cast judgment.
(AllHipHop News) A personal protection order has been issued against rapper Obie Trice for shooting a teenager.
The Oakland County, Michigan judge granted the order for the teenager who had been shot in a domestic squabble in which the rapper had been arrested a month earlier.
Obie Trice was arrested in early December after his girlfriend’s son was shot in Commerce Township, although no charges have been filed over the incident.
The actor was accused of faking an attack in Chicago where men put around a noose around his neck.
Speaking to the TVline, Thorn insisted that the decision was arrived at after looking at ‘a number of factors.”
“As hard as a decision as that was, for us — and when I say us I mean the network, the studio, and the producers — it felt like it was in the best interests of the show and the cast,” Michael Thorn said.
However, it was finally decided that the hate-crime hoax scandal would be too damaging.
Thorn added that although the decision was hard, it was in the best interests of the cast and the show.
He hoped that Jussie’s scandal will not overshadow the show since it is “bigger than him.”
In her statement, the woman says they started arguing at a party when she saw Trouble grabbing the backside of another woman and she confronted him, and he dismissed her.
She demanded he take her home to collect her belongings and that is when he told her “I got something for you” as he headed to another direction instead of to their home.
The report says that Trouble stopped the car, pulled her out while yanking off her wig and pressed her to the ground. Then, Trouble and his friends spend off.
Out of fear, the woman called her sister and gave her Trouble’s license plate number in case anything else happened.
Police arrived at the scene to take the report before the woman went for treatment at Atlanta Medical Centre for bruised knuckles and chipped a tooth.
The police report indicated there was visible physical harm and the cops are investigating the complaint.
(AllHipHop News) Mac Miller’s family is celebrating the rapper’s legacy by unveiling plans to release the album he had been working on before his untimely death.
Circles, the follow-up to his fifth offering, 2018’s Swimming, will hit retailers and streaming services on January 17th, two days before what would have been his 28th birthday.
In a statement posted on the “Self Care” MC’s Instagram page, his relatives write, “Here we are. The act of having to write this at all feels surreal.
“At the time of his passing, Malcolm was well into the process of recording his companion album to Swimming, entitled Circles. Two different styles complementing each other, completing a circle-Swimming in Circles was the concept.”
Mac Miller, real name Malcolm McCormick, had been collaborating with producer Jon Brion on the project, and he was invited to help complete the tunes following the hip-hop star’s death in September 2018.
“After hearing some early versions of songs, (Jon) cleared his calendar to help Malcolm fine-tune them,” his loved ones explained.
“After his passing, Jon dedicated himself to finishing Circles based on his time and conversations with Malcolm. We are eternally grateful to Jon and to those who gave their best to the difficult and emotional task of putting out this body of work.
“This is a complicated process that has no right answer. No clear path. We simply know that it was important to Malcolm for the world to hear it.”
The family concludes the press release by expressing its gratitude to Miller’s devotees for their years of support.
“Thank you to all the fans who’ve supported him unconditionally through the years,” continues the statement. “We miss him. We are left to imagine where Malcolm was going and to appreciate where he was.
“We hope you take the time to listen. The look on his face when everyone was listening said it all.”
Miller died from an accidental drug overdose, aged 26.
(AllHipHop Rumors) R. Kelly remains imprisoned for a myriad of infractions related to alleged sexual improprieties. Well, R also has a pair of women that he “goes with” and they are out here in the world and it appears that things are truly falling apart. They are on the internet fighting each other crazy. But, what is the true message.
I have to admit…I don’t know these chicks. This really makes me bad at this job, but I really don’t care. However, over at Lipstick Alley…they know it all. Here is a synopsis from somebody with knowledge and time.
-Azriel says Jocelyn came up to her with another woman named Kimberly -Said Jocelyn attacked her twice -Says she would like to press charges on Jocelyn -Says to Jocelyn in first video that Jocelyn slept with her as a minor -Says Jocelyn gave their keys to another woman (Kimberly) -Says Kimberly came up to the apartment to get Jocelyn’s stuff -Says Kimberly is a handler for Robert and does all his dirty work from jail -Azriel says she told Kimberly that Jocelyn needs to be present to get her belongings -Azriel says that she had people in the room that she trusts for protection -Says Jocelyn came to pick up Robert’s Grammys and awards -Says Jocelyn told her that she was wrong -Says that she told Jocelyn that she’s going to jail because she slept with a minor — which was herself (Azriel)
What I find most interesting is she may be turning on R. Kelly. Azriel admits that R. Kelly has been lying and that they lied for him. Says she wants Joycelyn in jail with her man. “He had people like me lying for him. That’s why we never watched the documentary. We got on Gayle King as stupid as can f*cking be.”
There is the saying: THINGS FALL APART!
R. Kelly’s brother has thrown his brother under the bus fast!
The older Kelly faced child pornography charges related to the tape in 2008, six years after it first emerged, but was acquitted by a jury after the alleged victim did not testify.
In the new Lifetime documentary series, the follow-up to last year’s “Surviving R. Kelly,” Carey says: “He was asking me, ‘You need to say that was you.’ Commit a crime pretty much to say that was me on the tape with a minor.
“Perjure myself in a court of law and risk jail time for some stuff that didn’t have anything to do with me? He was saying, ‘Man, I’ll buy you a car, I’ll buy you a record deal, I’ll give you $50,000.’ I said, ‘Let me tell you something, man. You ain’t got enough money for me to say that’s me. Because it ain’t worth me selling my soul.”
Azriel is taking this to the next level though and it could mean that R. Kelly is going to have another problem.

If you have Netflix, then I’m sure the Kevin Hart documentary, Kevin Hart: Don’t F**k This Up, is on your suggested to watch list.
In the documentary, Hart opens up about various aspects of his life including the cheating scandal. Kevin already admitted to it and he and his wife, Eniko, have moved past it.
Many have shared their opinions on the matter, but it was only time for the very opinionated, Joe Budden to have his word on it. On his “The Joe Budden Podcast,” he expressed how he was entertained and impressed by the outcome of the documentary. He also spoke on how hard Kevin works. We all knew something extra was about to come out of his mouth and a few seconds later, he said the worst thing a man can say that probably have women giving their men the side eye.
According to Joe, who is also accused of cheating on his ex-fiancé, Cyn Santana, he said he can understand why Kevin cheated. I know, I’m cringing too.
“In thinking about how hard he works, sometimes you’re not home but ten seconds of the day for however many days. I as a man can understand how that can be difficult,” Joe explains.
Joe goes on to add, “I know how I was feeling just going to work and spending very little time at home. We don’t have to get into that but as men, I think y’all know what I’m saying.”
Joe, are you trying to tell us something?
Check out the video below. Joe talking about Kevin starts around the 48 minute mark.
What y’all think? Do you think Joe is trying to justify the cheating allegations made by his ex or what?

(AllHipHop Rumors) Getting into a fraternity can be a very difficult process, especially if you are old school. And then, after you step into the frat (no pun intended), you have a lot of responsibility. So, when somebody puts on that shirt or sweatshirt, you know they went through something and earned it.
When you see rapper Lil Boosie on social media sporting a Kappa Alpha Psi sweatshirt, you have to ask the question: WTF IS GOING ON. As for me, I busted out laughing, because I knew this was simple. This dude put on a Kappa shirt and went out in public not knowing what he was doing. Check out the social media:
I am cracking up! My dude used the hashtag “KappaFresh” – LOL! Now, this is not a joke. A lot of people take this fraternity thing very seriously and they are known to battle even inside of their own ranks when somebody does not come in right but is then seen when a shirt on. You KNOW they don’t feel Boosie wearing it randomly. Here is the inside scoop nobody else knows.
My sources tell me Lil Boosie is wearing that Kappa shirt, because his older brother is a Kappa and apparently lil bro just put it on. Maybe he looks up to his big bro or something. I am hearing the brothers in the Kappa organization hollered at the brother and told him to check his brother! I believe (sources say), Boosie did indeed get a call from his brother to cut it out. I am not sure exactly how that impacted the Bad Azz. On social media, Boosie sang a different tune.
Boosie cray! He better be easy, because this really is nothing to be played with. The Nupes (Kappas) are pretty much gentlemen, but they might wild out in cases like this.
