Is it me or is Iggy Azalea looking less and less than a white woman? I have to admit, this woman is looking good…like an exotical! The reality is, it’s still Iggy Azalea, but for a second, I was dazzled. First, it was the booty and now it’s this weird “mixed” look. Check it out!

Iggy Azalea says she is now “raising her son alone” – OK!
Iggy Azalea and Playboi Carti are a REYNOLDS WRAP and now Iggy is wrapping her brain around being a single mom. She’s legit raising this child, Onyx, by her bad self. At least Iggy is looking more desirable. Anything closer to Black is more desirable to me. What is weird is she now fits the stereotype of the Black family – single move with Black son.
Nevertheless, it looks like Carti should be ready to pony up the paper, because she got that child support look! That single mother with an attitude look! I can’t wait to see how this develops!
WHAT THE F–K! (VOTE ForTRUMP) IM OUT,” Jackson wrote in the caption on Instagram. “F–K NEW YORK The KNICKS never win anyway. I don’t care Trump doesn’t like black people 62% are you out of ya f–king mind.”

During an appearance on “The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon,” Chelsea said Fifty had his numbers wrong and that the 62% he was referring to “isn’t a plan” under Joe Biden’s platform.
“So he doesn’t want to pay 62 percent in taxes because he doesn’t want to go from ’50 Cent’ to ’20 Cent’ and I had to remind him that he was a Black person, so he can’t vote for Donald Trump,” she said firmly. “And he shouldn’t be influencing an entire swath of people who may listen to him because he’s worried about his own personal pocketbook.”
“Oh my God, this is effecting [sic] my love life now. @chelseahandler I love ya Gator, don’t let Trump and Joe Biden come between us girl.”
Chelsea even offered to pay his taxes if he decided not to vote for Trump. 50 simply replied to the comedian’s offer – and advances – with a quote from Scarface.
Should we remind Chelsea Handler that she comes from Nazis since she wants to remind 50 Cent he’s black? pic.twitter.com/DIZou99Lec
White comedian Chelsea Handler, who has a whole career of racist “jokes”, said she had to remind her ex 50 Cent that he was Black because of his Trump support. 🤦🏿♂️
And she is offering him one more round of interracial sex so he can get his mind right.
👀a what, 😳another spin 💫Fu*k Donald Trump, I never liked him. 🤨for all I know he had me set up and had my friend Angel Fernandez killed but that’s history. LOL @chelseahandler@jimmyfallonpic.twitter.com/Tya6EqDBFt
A 12-year old rapper was sentenced in the shooting of a 1-year old baby but received little mercy from a judge.
A Texas judge chastised Lil Rodney, a Crips gang member, who shot a baby after taking off an ankle monitor.
Lil Rodney was subsequently sentenced to 7 years in a juvenile detention center, crying upon learning his fate back in September. The judge let Lil Rodney know he would be incarcerated until the age of 19, prompting him to cry. The judge was not sympathetic.
The judge said, “Every time you come in here you cry. You know that, right? Every single time, you beg me for one more chance. You swear to God, ‘On my mama’s name,’ ‘I’m not gonna cut off the monitor, I’m not gonna run off.”
Rodney, also known as 30 Shotz and Baby Savage, confessed to cutting off his ankle monitor to attend the funeral of an unidentified friend after authorities denied him permission. Both Rodney’s grandfather and birth mother attended the meeting. She gave birth to him at the age of 16 and was also sent to jail two times since the boy was born. His father has long abandoned the family and was not present for any of the virtual trial.
In 2019, at the time he shot the baby, Lil Rodney was already on probation for arson.
Less than a year after giving birth to her son, Onyx, the sometimes controversial Australian rapper Iggy Azalea has broken up with her boyfriend and the father of her child, Playboi Carti.
Iggy noted that she was raising her son on her own— leading some people to speculate that she is calling Playboi Carti a deadbeat dad.
Some stans clapped back at the way the Australian presented the information, stating just because they are broken up doesn’t mean that he cannot be in the child’s life.
Iggy responded to the backlash by adding context or correcting her first statement. In her IG story, she wrote against a black background:
“What I meant last night was that I’m raising my son alone and I’m not in a relationship,” Iggy Azalea stated.
This public statement comes as a surprise to some who took her for her word about discretion.
“I have a son. I kept waiting for the right time to say something but it feels like the more time passes the more I realize I’m always going to feel anxious to share news that giant with the world,’ Iggy said on Instagram. ‘I want to keep his life private but wanted to make it clear he is not a secret and I love him beyond words.”
Another outburst has fans questioning her intentions for floating this single mom narrative.
She wrote: “’You lost a real 1!!!! People take loyalty for granted & That’s why I’d rather be alone [vomiting emojis].”
According to the National Center for Institutional Diversity, there are two large issues with the term, “single mom.”
One, most people assume that “single” means “sole” or the “only” one in the parental equation. They use the analogy that no one says “married parenting” because it isn’t a “thing” since status and parenting are two different things.
Black Father and son in Brooklyn (NDS personal photo)
A report published by Medium says, “This is evidenced by a recent Pew Research Center report that categorized unmarried parents according to (1) cohabitating dads; (2) cohabitating moms; (3) solo moms; and (4) solo dads. In this instance, “solo” expands the notion of “single” to more broadly reference parents raising a child with no support (parent or partner) in the home, versus the Census’s definition referencing a spousal arrangement.”
The second issue is that Black men are often made to be invisible in these conversations, disqualifying their presence because the cultural narrative is that they are deadbeats.
Iggy and Playboi might not be together, but that has nothing to do with his parenting. That said, he could be a straight goofy…but until that is proven, subs can be damaging and unfair.
Produced by multi-platinum Hip Hop producer Hi-Tek and featuring Juice Crew’s legendary lyricist Masta Ace, Ras Kass releases the new video to “Culture Vulture.” This is yet another Boom Bap banger off the enigmatic “I’m Not Clearing Shxt’ vinyl playlist.
In Ras’ own words, “Tek came with the straight primal drums! Ace’s flow is liquid and Sapp hook smoothes it out on some Old School, Cold Crush harmony routine vibe. We do this s### for the Culture!”
The project features original guest appearances from Ice-T, Casual, OMID-G, Sid Wilson, Kool Keith and many more. Limited quantities available on physical format can be purchased via Blackhouse Records.
Taking it back to the feeling of the art form when Hip Hop artists were able to sample everything and anything they wanted, before corporate bullying via sample clearance lawsuits.
Everyone has celebrated Barack Obama’s playlist, but most people know that his wife, Michelle, gets busy too.
What makes her latest playlist even more epic is the fact that the music is curated to prompt listeners to get out and vote. Some of the folk featured on her music mix are some of rap music’s greatest acts and their biggest hits!
The Forever FLOTUS partnered with LL Cool J’s Rock The Bells for this special playlist which features classic songs like Public Enemy’s “Rebel Without A Pause” and The Roots’ “Don’t Feel Right” featuring Maimouna Youssef, Black Sheep’s ‘The Choice Is Yours’, Kurtis Blow and Run-DMC’s “Hard Times,” Queen Latifah’s “U.N.I.T.Y.” and more.

Rap star Silento’s bizarre behavior continues to land him in legal trouble.
According to the cops, the “Watch Me (Whip Nae Nae)” rapper was leaving the club in DeKalb County, Georgia on Friday morning when the drama started.
Police clocked Silento driving his 2020 BMW X3 SUV going 143 mph in a 65 mph zone, on Interstate 85. When the cops stopped the rap star, he claimed he was trying to shake at least 10 cars who were following him after his club appearance.
According to the police report obtained by TMZ, Silento tried to use his fame to get out of his legal jam, saying “people be following me everywhere I go…If there is like 10 cars following me, I can do 143 because I am not a regular person.”
The explanation did not fly with the cops, who threw Silento in the DeKalb County jail He is charged with numerous counts included exceeding the speed, reckless driving, and other driving infractions.
Kanye West revealed Oprah Winfrey once tried to stop him from running for President of the United States. He shared the info about Oprah during his 2-hour interview with Joe Rogan.
The Chicago rapper calmly explained how most people took his dream to run for President as a joke when he proclaimed his dream the MTV Vanguard Awards in August of 2015.
“I was hanging out with different friends that were some people in the music industry, some people tech elites, and they just really took it as a joke. And they’re telling me all these millions of reasons why I couldn’t run for President,” Kanye West said.
Kanye said one of those people was Oprah Winfrey, who dissuaded him from trying to win the White House in 2020.
“I remember running into Oprah…she’s like ‘you don’t want to be President…thought projecting, putting this on you,” Kanye West said. “And I remember one of my responses to one of the naysayers was well ‘I’ll definitely be a billionaire by that time, and not that that’s a reason why someone should become President, but its to say, you know, at that time I was $50 million in debt. And I knew I had the confidence that I would be able to turn that around.”
Kanye said Oprah did ultimately soften up. She gave him some solid political advice, which was to know about international politics.
“One of the things Oprah said was ‘you got a bone up on your foreign affairs. I remember this, cause its Oprah talking, I’m gonna remember a lot of what the conversation was. But that’s the first thing she said was know foreign affairs and foreign policies,” Kanye West said.
Kanye also confessed he contemplated running for Governor of California, an option that still may be on the table.
But Kanye said his real calling in life is even more significant than being President of the United States. Kanye wants to be the leader of the free world.
“If it’s in God’s plan that part of my path is to be the Governor then that’s fine, but my calling is to be the leader of the free world,” Kanye West said.
UPDATE: Offset was apprehended and released by Beverly Hills Police.Marcelo Almanzar, Cardi B’s cousin was not as fortunate.Almanzar was arrested for possession of a concealed loaded weapon, according to TMZ.
Rapper Offset of The Migos was apprehended while driving Saturday in Beverly Hills. The rapper was on Instagram live at the time of the incident with 30,000 people watching.
In the video, the rapper can be said heard saying explicitly that he is not going to move his hands from the steering wheel to officers. The officers countered with their interpretation of what was going on prior to their arrival, suggesting they were “waving guns” at people. Offset then countered with his version of the events that led up to his arrest.
It has not been confirmed that there is a relationship to the arrest,but there was a pro-Trump rally in Beverly Hills as well on Saturday. There were Trump supporters around in the video and Offset inferred somebody hit his car.
“You just watched somebody beat my car up with a flag. What are you talking about?” Offset said to the arresting officers.
And officer then reached into the rapper’ vehicle. “That’s not legal, you can’t just open my door,” Offset stated.
Offset continued to the police, “You know who I am?” He also threatened to sue them for false arrest.
Publisher Be’n Original has written a response to an interview with Dr. Boyce Watkins on AllHipHop.com.The opinions expressed in this editorial do not necessarily reflect the position of AllHipHop.com or any of its employees
The depths to which a small number of Black celebrities are willing to prostrate themselves to equate Joe Biden to Donald Trump is unfathomable. Few are more exemplary of this than you Dr. Boyce Watkins, in your recent interview with Chuck Creekmur on AllHipHop.com.
To even interject opinions that would support voting for the proven racist white supremacist that is Donald Trump undermines the overall interest of Black American who are suffering at hands of those who consider themselves part of the president’s base.
If the expression of refusal to heel at the master’s feet and beg for something that should have always been ours is as you say slave talk, then you, despite all of your acclaimed knowledge and accomplishments, speak with the tongue of a house ni##er who has lost his taste for freedom.
You have allowed yourself to become so comfortable with the way things are, not only have you lost your will to stand up fight for your own humanity, but you have the audacity to wage war on the people who are fighting on your behalf. You have lost sight of the way things should and still could be.
Instead of using your voice to encourage Black voters to use the power to end the greater threat of Donald Trump’s advocacy for white supremacy and police brutality, you would have us come to his table and plead for what he has consciously rebuffed throughout his term – days before an election.
This man has given a dime while taking a dollar throughout most of life and has likely never acted selflessly for the betterment of… Well, anyone else. Even if a dialogue regarding the socioeconomic hardships we endure was to be had, he’s one of the most deceitful and dishonest figures in modern American history. He lied about a virus that has needlessly brought to end the very lives of over 200,000 people and continues to play it down, knowing that it disproportionately affects Black Americans. This is the person we should believe? How has the sheer idiocy of this notion evaded you?
In the words of the fearless cultural soothsayer Remy Ma, are you dumb?
Why would anyone with a modest level of intelligence have confidence in a known racist to act within our best interest or simply believe a single thing he says? Why would you?
The answer is that you don’t. You know better, but your concern isn’t about protecting the culture or the well-being of our people, Black people. This is about your sophomoric need to create a moment. You are willing to place your aspiration for relevancy before the culture and its people. It is this kind of indifferent selfishness that impedes the unity we so desperately need to improve our lives. Instead of working in conjunction with other Black intellectuals who make use of their respective platforms for the good of us all, you used your moment to disparage them.
Where’s your dignity? As someone who experienced racism and intellectual oppression as a child growing in Kentucky, have you come so far that you no longer relate to the trauma of slavery? Why else would you make such thoughtless and depravedly irresponsible references?
Whatever the reasoning, whether you are simply clout-chasing or trying to usurp Jason Whitlock as the favorite pet of Trump-supporting conservatives, some soul-searching would do you well. You appear to need it now more than ever.
The bottom line is that we do not have another four years to hope and pray that Trump does the right thing. He has already shown us who he is and we believe him. Why don’t you?
And by the way… Historically speaking, only one kind of indentured servant would feel so empowered by his proximity to the master’s bedroom that he would chastise those who wanted to be free. Ironically, he would refer to other Black folk as slaves, too.

Trippie Redd is helping his fans escape from reality this Halloween since 2020 is has pretty much been a horror movie in itself, thanks to the coronavirus pandemic.
First up, Trippie just dropped off a six-minute release called “Spooky Sounds” with scary sound effects featuring titles like “Woooo,” “Laugh” and a classic door creaking with a horrifying laugh.
Trippie’s eerie collection of sound effects serve as a teaser for his highly anticipated album Pegasus, which is due out on October 30th. On the day of the album release, Trippie will be in Miami where he will preside over a socially distanced, drive-in movie screening of his favorite horror movies: “Candyman” (1992) and “Jeepers Creepers” (2001).
“I really just miss seeing my fans,” Trippie said. “I figured these events would be a good way to celebrate Pegasus with them.”
In addition to the Miami screening, Trippie has organized the drive-in movie screenings in Los Angeles, Atlanta, and New York City.
Pegasus, which features guest appearances by Lil Wayne, Young Thug, Future, Quavo , and others, is Trippie’s first full-length project since his #1 album A Love Letter To You 4.

Kanye West’s demand to appear on the top-rated podcast The Joe Rogan Experience was fulfilled after a false start due to the coronavirus.
Kanye believes the talk will score him extra votes in next month’s U.S. general election. The rapper, who is running for President, tweeted host and comedian Joe Rogan to ask to appear on the long-running audio series, which boasts huge ratings.
His initial debut was postponed over concerns over COVID-19 after Rogan’s producer “Young” Jamie Vernon was stricken with the disease. After the delay, the “Gold Digger” hitmaker’s special podcast episode debuted on October 23rd.
During the sit-down, Kanye said his quest to become the President came to him as he was taking a shower.
Kanye also addressed his war with the music business, why he prefers not to take his bi-polar medicine, and his net worth, which he said was around $5 billion.
Kanye is facing off against incumbent leader Donald Trump and former American Vice President and Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden on November 3rd.
Today is October 24th and it is Drake’s birthday. Curious about what Drizzy is doing for his 34th birthday?
Reports say that the “God’s Plan” rapper is planning to celebrate his latest rotation around the sun by heading to Las Vegas to party for his birthday.
A source told Hollywood Life that the mogul got to the United States in luxury onboard his customized private plane, “Air Drake.”
Moving plush is a lifestyle for Mr. OVO.
His customized Boeing 767-300F was “redesigned” by Off-White founder/Louis Vuitton Menswear Creative Director Virgil Abloh.
The plane, which is worth $185 million, has a private living room, a sprawling cabin area filled with couches and leather recliners that can seat up to 30 people, a big screen TV, multiple bedrooms, and all kinds of toys for the guest passengers.
While he is ringing in his birthday, Drake is also promoting his new album Certified Lover Boy, whichwill be the sixth studio album. The release is slated for the 4th quarter of 2020.
Rappers like Quavo, Lil Durk, 21 Savage, Virgil Abloh and others gave birthday shoutouts to the Toronto rap star on his special day.
Take a look at some pictures of Drizzy’s evolution over the years:

Hurricane Chris, born Christopher Dooley Jr., was eventually freed on a $500,000 bond. The rapper addressed the shooting shortly after he was released from custody.
“I was involved in a very unfortunate incident on Friday morning. A very unfortunate incident,” Hurricane Chris said. “I want to thank everybody who’s been praying for the family of the deceased and everybody who’s been praying for my family. After a good thorough investigation, my name will be cleared. Let God work,” Hurricane Chris stated.
“What You Here Fo” is not only the title of the newest offer from Sho Underscore, but also a question that he challenges you to ask yourself.In a day and age when it seems that the coolest thing to do is be like everyone else, Sho dares to go against the grain and march to the beat of his own drum.The Texas born trailblazer labels his style of music as “Southern Eclectic” which he describes as a mixture of Hip Hop, Blues, Gospel, Country, Classical, and Rock & Roll.One listen and it becomes clear right away, the purpose of this project is to set a new trend and take music back to the days of originality and distinction.Tracks like “Doing The Most” and “Robbin Givin” are filled with melodic flows and intricate rhyme schemes that give a message without coming across as preachy, while joints like “Boss Chick” and “Baby You” (which features an impressive appearance from newcomer Orteca Sky) uplift sisters and still provide a sound to groove to.If you’re looking for something to bump while you ride around with the stick ready to pull up on the ops, this isn’t the project for you and it isn’t trying to be.This project stands as a gumbo pot filled with heaping helpings of Southern Hip Hop in a way that you’ve never heard before.Sho Underscore made it clear that he was tired of the current climate of mainstream rap, and rather than be another bitter rapper, he created the change that he desired.If you miss the days of being able to tell who an artist was immediately after you heard them, or you’re just tired of hearing radio play the same 7 songs every 30 minutes, this is just what you’ve been waiting for. Love it or hate it, “What You Here Fo” is the album that can’t be compared to anything you’ve heard before, and that’s exactly what it was made to be.
The Busta Rhymes and T.I. situation is heating up quite a bit. For those that don’t know, Busta Rhymes did an interview with fat Joe and the two talked about appearing for a potential versus battle and T.I.’s name came up. Well, what’s the essentially challenged T.I. to a battle. Well the battle was shot down immediately by T.I. because he said that the two of them were from two different generations.
There is some validity to what Tip is saying. The original group that Busta Rhymes is a part of, Leaders of the New School, started their career in the late 1980s and they were a very popular and successful group. Their first album hit in 1991 though! Make no mistake about it, they were very dope! And then, Busta Rhymes went solo and he really did the thing on his own.
Now the issue is, first of all, TI is not willing at this moment to battle Busta Rhymes, because he says he is from a completely different era – the early 2000s. Busta Rhymes has a solo artist has a catalog that transcends generations and really does hit hard up in the current era. Things have changed just a little bit though. After a few times of back-and-forth over social media it seems like T.I. agreed to battle Busta Rhymes if he would start ONLY USING RECORDS where Tip’s career started. And that there is just a little bit weird! I don’t quite understand why he would accept the battle with conditions.
I think Busta has gotten to T.I. because he had a valid reason at first and then he deviated from it because of … COMPETITION!! The other thing is, both of these guys are actual emcees and fierce lyricists and I think that both of them really do want to go at it in their way. Busta Rhymes is a battle rapper that has many pop hits and that is a very daunting proposition for T.I. Tip is the trap lord of the South and not so much of a battle MC. He’s clearly nice with the bars and has more classic albums than Bussa Buss but is he ready to battle a self-proclaimed dungeon Dragon? I am not so sure about that!
And then there is Young Jeezy! I think Young Jeezy versus T.I. is far more interesting, but it also keeps it in the chamber of trap music. And to me, that is what people really want to see because they are evenly yoked artists! They would be literally fighting for the whole crown of the king of the south with this battle. I think that Verzuz will get made and I think Busta Rhymes will be a bit of a stain on T.I.‘s record, simply for declining to battle. That’s not to say that T.I. and Busta is not something people would watch but just to say that they are such different artists that it will be a simple back and forth.
Here’s some stuff online.
There is a live with Busta and his rap potna Spliff Star and they are going hard at Tip! This is getting HOT!
In her latest single “Tik Tok” along with a music video premiere on VEVO, Amala presents a priceless charisma and energy as her presence fills the entire video with her top-tier fashion, lyrics, personalities, and DANCE MOVES.
Amala introduces her fanbase to the “Tik Tok” dance she made that is featured in the video on multiple occasions. This dance has the evident potential to take on a viral journey on platforms like Tik Tok, Instagram, and others.
With the song titled “Tik Tok”, Amala is one of the few artists to visualize just about every single line from ice, fashion, and even literally ticking on a clock, taking us back in the day! With only two singles out and sitting at half a million streams on all platforms, Amala is destined to be a shining star in the music industry.
Amala portrays confidence in “Tik Tok” akin to traits shared by fellow star women artists such as Nicki Minaj, Mulatto, Megan Thee Stallion, Chika, and Flo Milli that separates her from the field of upcoming female powerhouses in music as a superstar.
2020 has birthed new stars, and Amala’s name deserves to have her name mentioned on the upcoming stars of music. The clock has a certain “Tik Tok” waiting for people to wake up to her transcendent sound.

Grammy-winning rapper Eve has partnered with BBC Sounds for her first-ever podcast.
“Constantly Evolving” will see the star welcome guests including fellow musicians Paloma Faith and producer Swizz Beatz, who will explore the importance of life lessons and share their tips for making it to the top.
The show will feature the “Let Me Blow Ya Mind” hitmaker and her subjects detailing their career lows, too, and the failures that have helped shape them.
“I’m so excited to be joining the BBC for my first podcast, talking to some incredible people from all walks of life and learning along the way with the listeners,” Eve said.
The “Constantly Evolving” podcast is set to debut “in the coming weeks”, according to a press release.
Rapper and influencer Tyler, The Creator has urged education chiefs around the world to ditch classes that won’t help kids as adults.
The hitmaker insists he was ill-prepared for life after school because no one taught him about taxes and how to take care of himself in the big wide world.
Asked what he would teach in school, during a new Abode MAX interview, the “Earfquake” star said, “How to do your taxes, more music classes, more cooking classes. Teach people how to wash their a**.”
Tyler insisted there would be very little advice he’d give his teenage self if he could go back in time, but he would make it clear that everything he writes on social media will be scrutinized when he becomes famous.
“(I’d say), ‘Everything you put on the internet since you were 15, people will try to bring up no matter what. So if you said, ‘Hey, I hate the color orange’, and you wear the color orange 11 years later, people will say… ‘You’re a hypocrite!'”
Travis Scott has taken his love for Hip-Hop, gaming and making money to a whole new level with his most recent advancement as a strategic creative partner with the PlayStation family.
One of the world’s leading video game hubs made the announcement this week, noting how exciting this organic association is for the brand.
Eric Lempel, Senior Vice President, of PlayStation Worldwide Marketing, SIE told the story of how it all connected.
“We heard Travis is a huge PlayStation fan,” Lempel shared. “So, we started a conversation with him that led to this unique partnership. Through our mutual passion for gaming and creativity, we plan on collaborating with Travis and his Cactus Jack brand to produce innovative projects that we hope will delight our collective fans.”
Almost all of his lucrative ventures are locked in with his lifestyle and personal joys – and the Playstation is one of them.
“Travis is an artist who is incredibly innovative, constantly surprising, and continues to push boundaries, very much like the PlayStation brand – so we think this is a perfect fit,” Eric Lempel continued. “When we embarked on this collaboration, the most important thing was to keep it as open as possible, to allow space to explore interesting, creative ideas.”
Travis’ bond with PlayStation is related to his childhood. In speaking about why he believes this relationship will resonate with Scott’s fans, Lempel said that the new venture lines up with what fans love about the Houston, Texas hitmaker.
“Travis’ deep knowledge and fond memories about PlayStation as a brand, our products, and games will inspire his work with us from start to finish. He is an amazing creator, and we strive to work with the best creative minds inside and outside of our industry to continue to surprise the world in a way that only PlayStation can, ” Lempel concluded.
