Her last post said it all, “Sometimes love just isn’t enough.”
The Young Money CEO and Founder took to social media to share a poem with his fans about how passionate he is, leaving people to suggest he is sending abandonment subs to his ex.
“I live the way I love and love the way I live,” he starts. “I’m a lover not a lighter bekuz they burn out. I am an eternal fire and burning love, either leave with a tan, a 3rd degree burn, or stay and die in love. You’re sweating. Sincerely, the fireman.”
I live the way I love and love the way I live. I’m a lover not a lighter bekuz they burn out. I am an eternal fire and burning love, either leave with a tan, a 3rd degree burn, or stay and die in love. You’re sweating. Sincerely, the fireman.
The Trump administration has been posting a shot of the POTUS and Lil Tunechi, signaling to Black men throughout the nation that he is the guy from them.
Ice Cube, Weezy, 50 Cent, Polow da Don and Lil Pump are not the only rappers to have been associated with The Don.
Trump has been mentioned in close to 300 songs. In many of these tunes, rappers equate success with his wealth.
However, there are some songs (particularly after he won the election) that call him out for his ways.
Check out these songs and sorry (not sorry) for you losing your girl:
Can we just agree that Public Enemy needs a new album like yesterday?
Safaree has proclaimed his “bachelor” status on social media, peddling his single life to the Gram! I suppose this is the best way to do it, and cause a pretty petty splash a the same time. As you all should know, Erica Mena was Safaree’s wife for a minute. You also should know he was with Nicki Minaj for a long time too. Based on his finances in the IG pic, I am going to think he has some backend publishing from Nicki! He got money!
He wrote: “BACHELOR!! Ending 2020 right!!” in the caption!
On top of it all, he threw Divorce Court in the mix too. These people don’t get married for the love, they do it for the clout! My guy is mad bold with it! I think he must have a pretty nice prenup! Bruh and his wife were just doing OnlyFans and making a lot of money! Why would they fall off into divorce at a time like this?
Who knows? We don’t know really! One thing is for sure, I am more apt to buy an OnlyFans with just Erica in it than her and him. Some have speculated that this is all a ploy for Safaree and his wiz to get on Divorce Court since he tagged the show. Not sure, but they are reality show stars so anything is possible.
In legal documents, they allege that Yeezy failed “to provide pay stubs, failing to pay minimum wage and overtime.”
And that the “defendants oversaw, controlled and ran the production, and the aggrieved employees worked many hours on the production and were not timely paid for their work, or paid at all.”
One of the women who worked as a hair assistant on the production noted in the document, she was owed “unpaid wages, continuing wages, damages, civil penalties, statutory penalties and attorney’s fees and costs.”
She also stated that the producers “failed to properly compensate the hair assistant and many dozens of other persons who performed services on the production, including the background actors, performing as audience members.”
The struggle is real. He just can’t seem to catch a break today.
The candidate appeared on 12 state presidential ballots. He wrote himself in when he voted from his first time in Wyoming

The country is still counting ballots and the tally is sure to go up as people may have written his name in also.
DaBaby finally speaks out about the death of his older brother, Johnson.
Johnson, succumbed to death by suicide on Tuesday (Nov. 3) afternoon in Charlotte, NC from a self-inflicted gunshot. Earlier in the day, the troubled man posted a clip of himself crying with the weapon.
While it is not clear why he would take his life, the video notes that he had been in dispute and someone “did him wrong.” The “Rockstar” rapper spoke publicly about his brother in the lead single “Intro” from his second studio album, Kirk, in 2019.
While so much of the song is about his father, he paused to assure his brother of his love and set the record straight for anyone that thought that he did not love his family.
“My brother be thinkin’ that we don’t love him and let him struggle like we ain’t family,” the Billboard Baby raps. “Like I won’t give up all I got to see you happy.”
The verse continued, “I’m still Lil’ Jon Jon, my song, it just went platinum, n**ga.”
“We on our own time, let’s go move out to Cali, nga. Put the kids in homeschool, let’s go get us a mansion, nga. Let’s raise our kids right, let’s watch the s### we teach ’em, nga. Let’s start a business for you so they can’t say that you leechin’, nga.
Late on Tuesday night, as the world was anxious about the elections, the North Carolinian was thinking about his brother.
He did not post anything deep or make an announcement. In a gentle and tasteful gesture, he wrote in his bio: LONG LIVE MY BROTHER🖤🕊
We all remember the crazy mess that came in the form of domestic violence. Chris Brown and RiRi harkened back to the days of Ike and Tina Turner in terms of infamous domestic violence.
Chris Brown and Rihanna shook up the world but now there’s really nothing to talk about… Until now! I never thought of this put the word on the street is that Chris Brown and Rihanna are actually very close friends. Do we know that they’re close friends, because Joyner Lucas – the rapper that has the most topics in his songs- has stated as such? Joyner Lucas apparently is in good standing with both of them and made the startling revelation in the comments of the post. He told this a fan! It really would’ve been dope if he had told it to me in an interview and we could actually chop it up. At any rate, here’s the information that he revealedto the public!
Do you think it’s possible that Chris Brown and Rihanna could end up getting back together? Rihanna has recently been made single after she broke up with her billionaire boyfriend. Meanwhile, her fancy clothing line is exploding all over the place with models galore! Chris Brown, on the other hand, is relatively quiet in my world but I would assume that he has matured greatly. He seems to be doing really well on the artistic tip and when I say artistic I mean visual arts. He is a really, really dope artist. I am not sure what the future holds, but I am not sure I would be upset if Chris Brown and Rihanna got back together. I already know that the fan base of Rihanna is very upset at the fact that she is allegedly very cool with her former abuser. But, we know that there is much more to that story and it has never really been made public. And I think, that is essentially why they are still in communication.
When Megan Thee Stallion was shot there were four people there. One was Megan, two was Tory Lanez, three was the bodyguard, and four was Megan‘s best stallion Kelsey Nicole. I am not sure much more about Kelsey Nicole but she seems to be some sort of an influencer. Recently Kelsey was seen at a swanky event with rap impresario J prince and Carl Crawford, who both have vehemently legally opposed Megan Thee Stallion. Kelsey clearly is no longer down with Megan Thee Stallion anymore as she is now partying with her enemies. I take that back since she say they are still friends. Now you should all know that earlier this year Megan was able to get away from Carl in the deal that they signed with the assistance of Jay Z and Roc Nation. A lot of people are raising an eyebrow at why her best friend is now fraternizing with her worst enemies. 👀
Rap veteran Too Short has distanced himself from U.S. President Donald Trump after a press release for an upcoming documentary suggested he was among the Republican leader’s supporters.
The Hip-Hop star was invited by director Daphne Barak to sit down and discuss politics for Trump vs. Hollywood. Recently, a media statement promoting the upcoming project was issued.
The press release claimed Trump had invited a “prominent group of African-American actors and entertainers” to the White House for an event in December to discuss his plans to help the black community, with the meeting set to be attended by Barak and the stars of “Trump vs. Hollywood.”
After quotes from rap pioneer Eric B and former Grey’s Anatomy actor Isaiah Washington, the statement went on to feature Too Short grouped together with pro-Trump celebrities like Kid Rock, Scott Baio, and Dean Cain, who appear in “Trump vs. Hollywood,” too.
Actress and media personality Claudia Jordan also found her name mentioned in the same paragraph, but both she and Too Short have now spoken out to make it clear they do not support Trump – and only agreed to participate in the documentary because Barak insisted it would feature opinions from “both sides of the aisle” and would not be a “pro-Trump piece”.
Jordan addressed the controversy with Too Short in a chat on Instagram, when the rapper explained, “I was asked to do an interview, that was it. I wasn’t asked to go to a dinner, I wasn’t invited to a dinner…
“I didn’t tell anybody anywhere on planet earth… that I support Donald Trump as a candidate.”
Too Short revealed Trump officials had tried in the “last couple weeks” to convince him to travel to Washington, D.C. to meet with the President, but he declined because he refuses to be used as a pawn to win over black voters.
“I said, ‘I’m not doing this…’ I don’t wanna be used as an endorsement. Like, you just shake his hand and they’re like, ‘Oh, you endorse him!'” he shared. “I don’t wanna be a part of none of that during this election process.”
Appearing to take a shot at Lil Wayne, who met with Trump last week and gave the incumbent leader his backing, Too Short said, “Anybody who’s taking this moment as a photo op… to be relevant for a day, I can’t respect that…”
Jordan shared video footage of the exchange online and captioned it, “Me and @tooshort had to let y’all know what’s REALLY going on!
“Trump admin using black celebs and rappers names as endorsements that have NOT endorsed (sic). Don’t be fooled!”
Check out the new video What’s Going On The Remake 20 years Later (Feat. Class of 2020) Music Video #theremake2020
20 years after the release of the All-star Tribute of Marvin Gaye’s, “What’s Going On,” 25 young artists came together in New York City to recreate the song and music video.
Comedienne Chelsea Handler is considering rekindling her romance with 50 Cent.
The “This Means War” actress previously dated the “In Da Club” hitmaker for several months after meeting on the set of her former late night talk show, Chelsea Lately, in 2009, and she has always had good things to say about her rapper ex.
The pair recently reconnected after clashing over politics. During a phone call last week to clear the air, Chelsea revealed 50 expressed an interest in reuniting.
Discussing her search for real love on pal Drew Barrymore’s new daytime show, the funnywoman said, “I really need an outdoorsy guy who can handle my BS (bulls**t), that can put up with a confident, strong woman, but is still gonna tell me to sit down and shut up when I’ve had too much to drink and I can’t stop talking. I like a little old-fashioned balance.”
“I may have to get back together with 50 Cent at this point,” she confessed. “We spoke the other night and I jokingly said, ‘I’m ready to get back together or possibly go for another spin…’ and he was like, ‘Hey, were you serious about… us getting back together?’ And I was like, ‘Yeah, totally! I’m open to anything!'”
“So, who knows? Maybe I’ll get back together with 50,” Chelsea continued. “He actually got a kick out of me, he gets my humor, and he likes it and finds it attractive, not like, a turn off!”
However, Chelsea hopes any new relationship she embarks on will result in lasting love.
“I do wanna experience big love,” she shared. “I wanna fall head over heels in love with somebody. I wanna flirt and text. I do crave that, so I hope that’s in my near future.”
Flawless Real Talk has the rapping ability to become one of the greats, and he’s well on his way. Hailing from Providence, Rhode Island, Flawless Real Talk, real name Alberto Martinez caught his big break with last year’s appearance on Netflix’ Rhythm + Flow even getting to the grand finale as the series’ runner-up.
At an early age, his stepfather was a tour bus driver so Martinez had the inside scoop on what life was like as a touring artist. As he grew into his teenage years, the trials and tribulations he faced led him to pour his emotions on paper and turning to hip-hop as a form of therapy. Quickly becoming popular within his city through local shows, Flawless was only in Atlanta for two months before winning a Wendy’s competition to open up for Ludacris and Rick Ross at Philips Arena.
He states, “That’s why those shows back home were really important, it molded me and prepared me for that moment. Had I not done those weekly shows back home and trained myself before, I wouldn’t have been ready for that. So I’m grateful.”
Earlier this year in August, Flawless unleashed his powerful new single titled “What A Time,” which unveiled a first-person perspective into his life as he imagines his one-year-old son having to also one day take a knee for social injustice. Additionally, he partners up with live streaming app LIVIT in offering the ultimate fan and artist interaction experience while giving back to charitable causes.
AllHipHop spoke with Flawless Real Talk, who was located back home in Providence, describing it as “the smallest city in the country. We love it.”
AllHipHop: What’s it like being from Rhode Island?
Flawless Real Talk: It’s the smallest city in the country, we love it. A lot of people are from Rhode Island. We have a few actresses like Viola Davis, some hip-hop people like Mike Stud. He’s an independent artist, pretty big out of Rhode Island. AraabMuzik is from Rhode Island, he’s a big producer. We’ve been on the cusp for a little while. Now we’re trying to get there, make more of a name for ourselves.
AllHipHop: How old were you when you went to Atlanta?
Flawless Real Talk: Oh man, I was 19 going to Atlanta and with no plan. Everybody said I was crazy. Because people from Rhode Island, a lot of people in my family have never left. They don’t really know what it’s like. Hearing that somebody’s going to take off to another state with no real plan to follow a dream that they don’t really believe in, it’s crazy. I was really having to prove everybody wrong from home and make it happen in Atlanta.
AllHipHop: What was it like coming to your own musically in Atlanta?
Flawless Real Talk: It was incredible coming into myself, finding myself, finding my sound. I could’ve gone to Atlanta, I could’ve changed my sound and tried to fit in. Try to blow up and take that route, blend in with what was hot at the moment in Atlanta. Going up against the grain and sticking to who I really am allowed me to really flourish and stand out more. The culture of Atlanta is so amazing because they’re so accepting and receptive to everybody. They weren’t really prejudiced to my style, in the sense of it wasn’t trap, it wasn’t good. It was different and they all showed love and I had four wonderful years in Atlanta. Once I started touring independently, I went back home to Rhode Island to be close to my family. With the internet and social media, it allowed us to be more free. It didn’t matter where you are, being able to reach the world. It’s been much better now, being able to be close to the family and still manage my career from here.
AllHipHop: What does the song “What a Time” mean during a time like this?
Flawless Real Talk: “What a Time” really signifies social injustice, it speaks on it. Doesn’t sugarcoat it, doesn’t sugarcoat anything that’s really going on. Speaks on my perspective of it and what I feel in my emotions. I thought it was important to put it out so my fans know where I stand with social injustice. Everybody was in a dark place. The world’s in a dark place right now, putting out anything other than “What a Time” would’ve been an injustice to the people who really needed to hear that. It was important for me to put that out at that moment.
AllHipHop: As the music industry continues to pivot completely from in-person to virtual, talk about the importance of live streaming. Why’s LIVIT the perfect partner?
Flawless Real Talk: Live streaming is more important than ever right now because due to COVID-19, we’re not able to tour. Not being able to tour, we can’t connect with the fans that support us on a day-to-day basis. I do free Meet & Greets before all of my shows. I like to meet, take pictures. I like to see everybody that supports me. That connection really builds a foundation for the future and them continuing to support you. Live streaming still allows us to still keep that connection with the fans to the best of our ability. With LIVIT being the perfect fit, it’s more of an interactive app where the fans can actually connect directly with us. Instead of watching the live stream, they can take part in the live stream. That’s really important for us to have fun with the fans, interact with them, all while giving back to charitable causes.
AllHipHop: Give us an inside look on your first live concert with LIVIT and what that would look like.
Flawless Real Talk: Yes, the first live concert is November 13 at 9pm EST on LIVIT. It’s going to be different than any other concert they’ve seen because not only can you watch the concert, but you can take part in the concert. We’re going to be interacting with the fans during the concert. Talking to the fans, shouting the fans out, fans are going to be able to donate for the charitable causes we’ll be fighting for. We’re going to be able to interact with them during the concert like they’d never been able to do before.
AllHipHop: Who’s an artist that had the biggest impact or influence on your artistry?
Flawless Real Talk: Jay-Z. Being from Providence in the New England area, we’re bred from New York hip-hop. Being that close, Jay’s the GOAT to me. Not only what he’s done musically, but how he’s taken his career to different heights. Becoming a CEO with everything he’s done outside of music has really showed me coming up that I don’t just have to be a rapper. I can be so muchy more, so many other things. I can really, really have ownership in my music, really protect myself and become a boss. The way that he operated and moved in his career really had an influence on me and how I wanted to be when it was all said and done.
AllHipHop: What do you hope to accomplish over the next year?
Flawless Real Talk: We hope to accomplish and give as much as we can through the LIVIT platform. We’d like to establish more of a hip-hop culture on LIVIT. That’s why the partnership is a perfect fit.. I’m bringing a lot of streamers within the hip-hop community who are going to see what we’re doing and want to really be a part of it. Within a year, we’re going to really turn LIVIT into more of a hip-hop based charitable app. I’m excited to see who wants to join in on this journey and be a part of the giving.
AllHipHop: What was your best experience on the show on Rhythm + Flow ?
Flawless Real Talk: The best experience for me was working with Jhene Aiko. Being able to work with established artists already in the industry really gave us a sense of belonging. Being able to perform with her at that level, make such an impact and have such a wonderful performance, was a little bit of validation for us that were in the final five. To say you know, we belong here too. That’s a great moment for me to be able to accomplish that, as well as the finale. Being able to go out on my own and give tribute to my family and know that no matter what the results were, I was going to leave behind an imprint on that show.
AllHipHop: What do you hope to see when it comes to equality?
Flawless Real Talk: First and foremost, it needs to start with accountability for what’s happening. That’s important. Not taking accountability, not getting justice for the things happening aren’t making things any better. I believe we need police reform. I don’t believe we need to defund police, the training needs to be adjusted. The way that they approach situations, the way they’re trained in these matters needs to be adjusted. The system has been in place for a long time. It’s been a long time coming that changes need to be held and brought up with the time so to speak.
AllHipHop: What are you working on now?
Flawless Real Talk: Right now, I’m working on LIVIT. Our focus is going to live streaming and giving that personal experience, that interactive experience with the fans. Really connecting with them on a different level and giving back to these causes. The world needs our help. What better way than to use my platform and my influence to help out and give back? Last year, we had a toy drive for the kids at Hasbro Children’s Hospital in my city. We pulled up with bags full of donations and it made us feel so good. I want to pull up with a box truck this year. I want to continue to give more because it feels great to be able to use my influences in a good way. Be in the media and in the news for positivity as opposed to negativity.
Busta Rhymes put on a show for voters in New York, performing outside the Apollo Theater, where he was joined by Funkmaster Flex.
He belted out his hits “Break Ya Neck” and “Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Could See” as part of the Joy To The Polls campaign to entertain Americans waiting in line to cast their votes.

We are truly living in the eye of the storm of a real extinction level event when it comes to our people and all the s**t that they have been trying to do to us since the beginning of time!!

K’Valentine has given a gift to lovers with her new single from the Chicago poet and emcee.
Those who love their partners so deeply that it hurts to think of any type of cessation of their relationship.
Those who love the art of the boom-bap, slick rap, and the back-and-forth jousting of a Hip-Hop duet— and have been broken-hearted by a culture and mindset that have ignored the dissolve in both cases.
Titled “P.O.V.” and featuring Jadakiss, the offering is mature with a bop, rich with soul-stirring lyricism and hood insecurities. It opens with a woman trying to figure out why she and her man are disconnecting. In her mind he is cheating, and in her spirit, she must accept it and move on. From his perspective, neither is the case: he is just hustling and not communicating well.
K’Valentine & Jadakiss
The D-Block emcee also notices things like the shift from sexy teddies at night to long flannels, funky attitude, and his own past demons or infidelities creeping up in his mind. His resolve, she fed up and it ain’t nothing he can really do to convince her that he’s just trying to provide for her.
“Anybody who is currently in a relationship or has ever been in a relationship can definitely relate to this song,” the artist adds with a reflective chuckle when talking about the song to AllHipHop. “Especially during this lockdown when everyone is forced to face their s###.”
This is the femcee’s sweet spot.
One of the most profound thinkers and gifted voices from the Midwest, it is a fact that she can stand alone on the mic. Forget her previous joints with premier lyricists like “Soul Stirring” with Styles P (Kiss’ LOX brother) and “US” with Talib Kweli, she is a beast with this artform.
But she also has an understanding of emoting through words and finding the right emcee to compliment her (without either spit kicker overpowering the other). The magic she makes on songs like this makes not just good music for fans but probably makes whomever she collabs with better. She stretches all of us to feel Hip-Hop and not just dance, fellowship, and pontificate on its fall or who does not belong. It is magical and masterful.
“I wanted to create a song that displayed healthy dialogue between a couple goin’ thru it. P.O.V. is about gettin’ your point across, respectfully, during a hard time,” K’Valentine shared.
She continued modestly doting on collaborating with everyone’s favorite rapper (dead or alive, “Working with Kiss was AMAZING, he’s the truth. He said my verse was dope and that made it easier for him to come up with his.”
After ex-rivals Nas and Jay-Z settled their differences in 2005, the two New York City icons united on Nas’s “Black Republican,” Jay-Z’s “Success,” and Ludacris’s “I Do It for Hip Hop.” Apparently, there is another unreleased track that could one day feature Esco and Hov.
Harlem emcee Dave East hinted that he had a record he wanted both Hip Hop legends to rap on. While promoting his 2019 project Survival, East told NME, “The first beat Timbaland played for me had Jay-Z on it so I was gonna use that and get Nas on it for the album but it just didn’t work out at the time.”
The British music-based outlet recently caught up with East’s Mass Appeal Records label head, and Nas was asked about potentially spitting on the same song with Jay again. He seemed open to the idea of the Timbaland-produced collaboration taking place.
“[East] told me about it. I was just waiting on a phone call,” said Nas. The King’s Disease album creator added, “I haven’t heard the song yet, but all East has to do is tell me when it’s a go, and if it’s a go I’m there.”
Dave East’s debut studio LP, Survival, included “Godfather 4” with Nas. The Harlem rapper and the Queens rapper also connected on other songs such as “Forbes List,” “The Hated,” and “Wrote My Way Out.”
HBO recently finished airing season 1 of We Are Who We Are. The dramatic coming-of-age story featured performances by Chloë Sevigny, Jack Dylan Grazer, Alice Braga, Jordan Kristine Seamón, and Scott “Kid Cudi” Mescudi.
Deadline reports that Kid Cudi has already secured another acting gig. He will star in Ti West’s forthcoming horror thriller titled X. Cudi is also credited as an executive producer. English actress Mia Goth and former Disney Channel star Jenna Ortega are attached to the film as well. Production for the movie is expected to begin at the top of 2021.
Additionally, Cudi is part of the star-studded cast of Netflix’s Don’t Look Up. Jennifer Lawrence, Leonardo DiCaprio, Cate Blanchett, Jonah Hill, Himesh Patel, Timothée Chalamet, Ariana Grande, and Matthew Perry will also appear in that movie written and directed by Adam McKay.
“Excited isn’t even the word. To be a part of this epic cast is unreal. And my first movie [with] my brother Timmy. God is good,” wrote Mescudi on Instagram about Don’t Look Up. His filmography contains other motion pictures and television shows such as How to Make It in America, Creepshow, Westworld, Entourage, and Bill & Ted Face the Music.
Plus, Kid Cudi excited many of his music fans when he announced the third installment in his Man on the Moon album series was in the works. The original Man on the Moon: The End of Day came out in 2009. The sequel, Man on the Moon II: The Legend of Mr. Rager, landed a year later.
For several days, social media users speculated why Travis Scott decided to deactivate his Instagram page. People making fun of the “Sicko Mode” rhymer’s Halloween costume was one of the reasons offered for his break from the platform.
“Halloween had nothing to do with it,” a source told Page Six. “He is focusing on his family and their well-being and wants to influence his fans to do the same instead of being so consumed with social media.”
The source also suggested Scott’s exit from Instagram had to do with it being “a critical time in the world.” That statement likely referred to the election season in America which is highlighted by the contentious presidential race between Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Joe Biden.
Travis Scott dressed as Batman for Halloween this year. The brown-colored superhero suit was ridiculed online, leading to rumors Scott was run off Instagram because of the jokes. There was also speculation the Instagram deletion was connected to a forthcoming music project.
Waka Flocka Flame is not a fan of the way the media is covering Election Night 2020. The 34-year-old rapper shared his views about the American press on his Instagram page.
“The way the media spinning this election is disgusting and disrespectful to the people… propaganda a m########### but an [eye-opener] on another level. So many walking zombies think they alive,” posted Waka on IG.
The “O Let’s Do It” performer did not provide more specific criticism of the coverage. He simply added in his Instagram caption, “Please over-stand and not understand!!”
While all the ballots have not been counted, Joe Biden currently holds a 238-213 lead in Electoral College votes. The critical toss-up states of Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Nevada, Georgia, and North Carolina have yet to be called for either candidate.
