Jaden Smith’s Absence From “Karate Kid: Legends” Film Trailer Causes Twitter Uproar

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: Rumors

Although Jaden Smith appeared in the Karate Kid film franchise more than 14 years ago, he still appears to be a fan favorite based on the discourse his absence from the trailer for the upcoming installment of the franchise caused on social media.

The first trailer for the upcoming film, Karate Kid: Legends, starring Jackie Chan and the star of the original trilogy Ralph Macchio, arrived on Tuesday (December 17). However, rather than Smith reprising his role, newcomer Ben Wang was revealed as the new protégé both Chan and Macchio would be training.

Several users reacted to the trailer in the thread of replies attached, writing remarks such as “Where’s my n#gga Jaden Smith?” Another user added, “If Jaden smith not in this I’m going to be p#####.”

Other users speculated that Smith’s absence had to do with the actual Karate Kid universe and where the 2010 iteration of the film’s franchise which he starred in lies within that framework.

“I love that they just said ‘F### it, the Jaden Smith movie is canon’ since that was the only one untouched by Cobra Kai lol,” the user suggested.

There were also the users speculating that Smith’s presence could be reserved for a show-stopping grand entrance to heighten the excitement and nostalgic element of the film.

“Imagine if Jaden Smith appears in the 3rd act reuniting with Jackie Chan, s### would be Avengers for Karate Kid fans lol,” the user added.

But, more often than not, users simply trolled the film trailer over Smith’s obvious snub.

“Jaden smith seeing he’s not in the karate kid movie,” a user wrote in a reply referencing Isaiah Thomas’ notorious appearance in Michael Jordan’s The Last Dance series.

Another user added, “No Jaden Smith? Who do I start my hate train for? Sony or Jaden cuz one of yall f##### up.”

Piggybacking on the aforementioned retort, an additional user wrote, “The fact that Jaden Smith is not in this movie is anti-black!!!”

One user suggested the “ICON” rapper’s recent lifestyle choices could be to blame for why he failed to secure a role in the flick.

“Jaden smith should’ve still been doing these movies,” the user wrote in part before concluding, “But being fake gay with tyler the creator was what his mind was on.”

Check out the full trailer for the flick in the post above.

Kanye West Declares Himself “Richest Black Man” In American History In Upcoming A&E Series

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: Rumors

Kanye West’s explosive legal deposition is set to air in a new episode of A&E’s Interrogation Raw: Celebrity Under Oath.

Though the series premiere isn’t until December 26, a portion of West’s appearance in the show’s upcoming episode has gone viral on social media due to Ye’s fiery demeanor. In the deposition, tied to an ongoing lawsuit filed by MyChannel, Inc., West displayed his trademark bravado, donned a mask and boldly declared himself the “richest Black person in the history of America.” The legal drama began when West was asked by opposing counsel to refrain from using his phone during the deposition —ut Kanye wasn’t having it.

“Due to my mental geniusness, in order to focus on this bulls#it, I need to be on a phone,” Kanye West stated in the beginning of the clip.

Things got even more bizarre when West reverted to wearing a mask during the Zoom call, explaining, “You don’t have the right to see my face.”

Throughout the deposition, Kanye West refused to reveal his location, even when asked directly.

“Where is that room?” the attorney pressed West, who responded bluntly, “I’m not going to tell you! You’re never going to see me again.”

When the lawyer inquired about what other items were in the room, West shot back, “Are you stupid? I’m not going to tell you other things. I don’t have the time to be talking about… I got a chair in the room?”

The dicey clip ends with Ye seizing the moment to remind everyone of his status.

“You are talking to the richest Black person in the history of America,” he said in a confident and condescending manner.

The deposition stems from a $20 million lawsuit filed by MyChannel, Inc., a Black-owned e-commerce company that partnered with West in 2018 to boost revenues for his Yeezy brand. The company alleges West lured them with promises of a $10 million investment and a long-term partnership, only to back out after six months. During that time, MyChannel claims it worked 10,000 hours, relocated its headquarters twice, first to Calabasas and then to Chicago, and poured $7 million into the Yeezy project.

According to the lawsuit, West cut ties with MyChannel after allegedly stealing its proprietary technology to help launch his Sunday Service initiative, leaving the company blindsided. Now, they’re seeking $20 million in damages, accusing West of using them to fuel his Yeezy empire while reaping millions from their tech.

Cardi B Demands Offset Sign Divorce Papers After He Says She’s Focused On “D#ck”

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: News

The feud between Cardi B and Offset continued to flair up on Twitter following their recent string of indirect jabs at each other.

The fiery back-and-forth between the former married couple-turned-co-parents hit a boiling point on Wednesday (September 18) as the estranged husband and wife aired their grievances about dating and family dynamics amid their ongoing divorce. The drama began when Offset called out Cardi and accused her of allegedly using their private issues to appeal to fans.

“We grown up keep lying and tryna make me look away our kids will see this all for you tryna put on for fans s#it sad,” Offset tweeted in part. “I never do this internet s### u always do. You 32 with 3 kids stop!!!!!!”

A post shared by AllHipHop (@allhiphopcom)

In a follow-up tweet, Offset implored Cardi B to stop their public spat. However, in the process of offering the olive branch, the “Clout” rapper appeared to s###-shame the mother of his children for seemingly prioritizing her newfound love life.

“Nobody win when the fam fight stop capping to these ppl to make yourself look like the hoe,” he wrote. “U a fire women good music but u focus on d#ck and tryna make me look bad.”

He concluded the tweet with a call-to-action to Cardi, daring her to “drop the album and go up.”

Cardi B, however, didn’t hold back in her response and accused Offset of attempting to win people over with a narrative of his own to manipulate public perception.

“So dating because I’m single means I’m just worried about d#ck??” Cardi B fired back. “You sound like a dummy… trying to be fake nice after you did what you wanted from the beginning trying to push a narrative to these people. F#ck off and sign the papers TODAY.”

In another tweet, Offset took a jab at Cardi B’s priorities while also suggesting the only reason he hasn’t signed off on their pending divorce is because they have not finalized a shared custody agreement for their three children.

“When u split the custody I will,” he wrote.

“U ain’t worried bout music u worried about d#ck everybody can see it all u talk about us d#ck and in clubs burnt no music no nothing just drama.”

Offset also quickly clapped back to her previous remarks, mocking Cardi’s response by suggesting her behavior supposedly stems from the unhappiness she harbors.

“Single and miserable check to last 10 spaces u mention me,” he tweeted, adding a dismissive “get ya flex on ma ma.”

Cardi subsequently countered his claims and escalated the exchange, calling out Offset’s jealousy over her dating life.

“Single and miserable?” she questioned rhetorically. “Naaa you just mad that I’m outside and you thought nikkas wasn’t going to be on me cause in your words I got 3 kids in my thirties.”

She also accused Offset of hypocrisy, claiming he meddles with every man she speaks to.

“I don’t bother none of the hoes you fck but every guy I talk to you dming and talkin s#it about me like let’s not!”

In a tweet he has since deleted, Offset denied Cardi’s claims while also threatening to expose her over her apparent interest in his partners.

“@iamcardib I’m dm n#ggas lol don’t make me post who u asked was at my party,” he wrote in the tweet.

Cardi B and Offset, who first met in early 2017, secretly married in September of that year. Their tumultuous relationship has been marked by several public cheating scandals, leading to their initial separation in 2018 before they reconciled. But their latest fallout began in 2023, with Cardi B filing for divorce amid new allegations of infidelity.

Lil Yachty Denies Karrahbooo’s Claim He Blocked Her Deal With Young Thug While He Was In Jail

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: News

Lil Yachty is seemingly standing up for himself after his former Concrete Boys signee Karrahbooo came forward with new claims against him involving his fellow Atlanta rap counterpart Young Thug.

On Tuesday (December 17), a video clip began circulating on social media in which Karrahbooo discussed negotiating a deal with multiple labels and artists, including Yachty and Thug. According to the former first lady of Concrete Boys, Lil Boat was not happy that she was fielding offers from other entities — despite the fact that he hadn’t officially brought her into the fold.

“Even before I signed with him — the day I dropped the song is the day he hit me up, trying to sign me,” Karrahbooo said in part in the video. “That same week, other labels reached out to me. He still hasn’t cosign me publicly.”

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by AllHipHop (@allhiphopcom)

Karrahbooo went on to reveal that Thug ended up reaching out to her while still incarcerated in Cobb County Corrections as he fought his YSL RICO case. She says she shared her excitement with Lil Boat, expecting him to be happy for her, but instead, claims he was hating on her and Thugger.

“Young Thug was in jail checking for me,” she said.

“I told Boat, I was excited, I told him. He like ‘What the f#ck can that n#gga do for you from jail?’ And I’m like ‘Ugh you’re such a hater’.”

She added, before the clip ended, “And it was other labels hitting me up those first two weeks before he ever ever even acknowledged me publicly.”

Lil Yachty appeared to catch wind of the video and shared a cryptic post on his Instagram story seemingly denying Karrahbooo’s claim.

“Lying for attention I wish you well,” Lil Yachty wrote in the caption of the post.

This obviously isn’t the first time that Karrahbooo has made disparaging claims about Lil Yachty, to which he responded. Her latest anecdote about the alleged incident with Young Thug follows a separate claim she made during an interview months earlier, in which she claimed Yachty used a team of writers to craft his album Let’s Start Here. Karrahbooo also previously claimed that she and Lil Yachty would get into arguments over the use of writers, which she claims he pressured her to use.

EXCLUSIVE: JAY-Z Says Tony Buzbee Caused “Incalculable Harm,” Demands Judge Take Action

By: Grouchy Greg Watkins (@GrouchyGreg)Category: Exclusives

Shawn “JAY-Z” Carter is firing back against allegations that he and Sean “Diddy” Combs raped a teenager in 2000.

JAY-Z and his legal team, led by attorney Alex Spiro, have accused the plaintiff’s lawyer, Tony Buzbee, of engaging in misconduct and filing a baseless lawsuit.

Citing inconsistencies in the claims and evidence of unethical behavior by Buzbee, Carter’s team has called for the case to be dismissed.

The lawsuit, filed in October 2024, alleges that Jane Doe, the plaintiff, was sexually assaulted at an afterparty hosted by Combs after the MTV Video Music Awards.

The amended complaint names JAY-Z as a defendant, identifying him as the second individual involved in the alleged assault.

However, JAY-Z’s attorneys have challenged the claims, describing them as “wholly unreliable” and accusing Buzbee of failing to investigate before filing the lawsuit.

“Plaintiff’s unsupported allegations crumble under scrutiny, as the evidence—and lack thereof—reveals glaring inconsistencies and outright impossibilities in her story,” JAY-Z’s filing states.

Among the issues raised are contradictions in the timeline, details of the alleged assault, and the locations described by the plaintiff.

The allegations center around an afterparty supposedly held at a private residence described as a “large white house with a gated U-shaped driveway.”

However, photos from the night of the alleged incident show JAY-Z at a New York City nightclub called Lotus, which bears no resemblance to the residence described in the complaint.

Additionally, photos show Diddy and Jennifer Lopez at separate parties at other New York nightclubs that evening, further contradicting the plaintiff’s claims.

Jane Doe’s statements to NBC News have also cast doubt on her story.

In the interview, Doe admitted to making mistakes in identifying people and events, saying, “Not all the faces there are as clear.”

She acknowledged that she may have been “guessing” about key details, including the time it took to travel to the alleged party.

Her father, who she claimed drove five hours from Rochester to pick her up, denied that the event ever occurred, telling NBC, “I feel like I would remember that, and I don’t. . . that’s something that would definitely stick in my mind.”

The motion also pointed out that Doe’s claim of speaking with musician Benji Madden at the party was demonstrably false.

Madden was not in New York then but on tour in the Midwest with his band, Good Charlotte. This revelation further undermines her credibility.

Spiro’s filing accuses Buzbee of attempting to extort JAY-Z before filing the lawsuit.

According to the motion, Buzbee threatened to publicly accuse JAY-Z of sexually assaulting multiple minors unless JAY-Z agreed to an exorbitant settlement.

When JAY-Z refused, Buzbee amended the complaint to include him as a defendant.

The motion also highlights Buzbee’s troubling history of misconduct in other cases, including allegations of pressuring clients to fabricate evidence and unethical fee arrangements.

In one instance, a federal court invalidated a referral agreement orchestrated by Buzbee as a violation of public policy.

In another case, Buzbee was rebuked by a California judge for violating pretrial rulings and attempting to introduce prohibited evidence during a trial.

“Buzbee’s chronic inability to follow the rules in this case and others creates a substantial risk that he will destroy evidence damaging to Plaintiff’s case, including evidence of his own misconduct,” the filing states.

JAY-Z’s legal team has requested an immediate preservation order to prevent the destruction of relevant evidence.

The rap star’s lawyers have filed a motion to strike the allegations against him, describing them as “scandalous” and “immaterial.”

They argue that the claims serve no legitimate purpose but to damage JAY-Z’s reputation and coerce a settlement.

“The salacious allegations against Mr. Carter serve no purpose other than to harass him and to pressure him to settle a lawsuit based on false claims,” the motion states.

The impact of the allegations has been significant, according to Spiro. “These allegations have caused incalculable harm to Mr. Carter, his family, his businesses, his employees, and his legacy,” he said in the filing.

The court will hear arguments on the preservation order and motion to dismiss later this week.

Benzino In Crisis: Girlfriend Posts Video Of Manic Episode—Now 50 Cent Is Invested

By: Kyle EusticeCategory: News

Benzino apparently had some kind of mental health crisis that his girlfriend, Ashley Bell, recorded—and now 50 Cent is invested.

On Wednesday (December 18), the rapper-turned-television mogul shared a clip of the former Source publisher on his hands and knees crying uncontrollably. Despite 50 Cent’s claim that it was in response to him assaulting her, Bell is heard trying to console him as he continues to cry and hold a knife to his throat.

“Stop please,” she says. “Stop. Stop,” to which he replies, “Call the police.” Bell refuses to heed his command and instead begs him to stop again.

“Give me the knife!” she shouts. “I’ll let ’em know you’re calm. I’ll call ’em back.”

The video cuts off there. 50 Cent, who presumably shared the clip due to Benzino’s ongoing feud with the “In Da Club” rapper’s longtime collaborator/friend Eminem, wrote in the caption, “Benzino caught on video by his girlfriend Ashley Bell threatening to unalive him self with a knife because she called the cops for him allegedly beating her.”

A post shared by 50 Cent (@50cent)

Benzino has endured several challenges over the past few years, primarily with his daughter Coi Leray. In May, the Island Records artist essentially disowned him.

“I want everybody to know I want nothing to do with anything my father has going on,” she wrote on Twitter (X) at the time. “I haven’t spoken to him in over a year and I don’t condone or respect any of them interviews he got going on. I don’t respect his decisions and I really want nothing to do with him please dont even think of me when you see him.”

She previously seemed to distance herself from her father after he defended R. Kelly on the We in Miami podcast.

“Sharing the same DNA and blood DOESN’T make us FAMILY,” she wrote. “Loyalty, boundaries, respect, teaching, guidance, love, patience, encouragement MAKES US FAMILY.”

As for Benzino and Eminem, their beef stretches back decades. But in October, Benzino once again attempted to squash their issues—although not successfully. After Eminem’s daughter Hailie Jade announced her pregnancy, Benzino took to social media to congratulate his former foe.

“Somebody found out that they’re going to be a grandfather,” Benzino began. “And the irony is that even though he said nobody wants to hear their grandpa rap, I still want to send a congratulations out to Eminem and his daughter Hailie on the news that she’s about to give birth and he’s about to be a granddad.”

The feud originated in the early 2000s, when Benzino criticized Eminem’s success and accused him of appropriating Black culture, leading to an explosive back-and-forth that included numerous diss tracks.

JAY-Z Faces 31-Year-Old Man’s Paternity Lawsuit — Alleges Mother Was 16 With 22-Year-Old HOV

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: News

JAY-Z faces a new paternity lawsuit as additional allegations continue to mount.

The Roc Nation music mogul is now embroiled in a resurfaced legal battle over the paternity of Rymir Satterthwaite, a 31-year-old man who has spent over a decade seeking to prove JAY-Z is his biological father.

The lawsuit, which was originally filed on November 25, lists Satterthwaite, his late mother Wanda and guardian Dr. Lillie Coley as plaintiffs and accuses JAY-Z and his legal team of fraudulent behavior in past court proceedings.

According to a report by MailOnline, the plaintiffs allege that between 2012 and 2023, their legal rights were “systematically violated” through “fraudulent court actions” including sealed records, wrongful sanctions and obstruction of appeals. Additionally, they claim that multiple judges engaged in misconduct which included misrepresenting property ownership and allowing JAY-Z to make false claims during earlier legal battles.

The lawsuit traces its origins back to 1992, when Wanda alleged she had an intimate relationship with the rapper while he was 22 and she was just 16. Wanda sought a paternity test in 2010 to determine whether JAY-Z was Satterthwaite’s biological father, but the case was dismissed as Satterthwaite had already reached adulthood.

The new lawsuit revives these claims and accuses the legal system of conspiring to deny the plaintiffs access to crucial records. The legal development comes as JAY-Z also faces allegations stemming from a civil lawsuit accusing him and Sean “Diddy” Combs of raping a 13-year-old girl after the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards.

In related news, Houston attorney Tony Buzbee has filed a separate lawsuit against JAY-Z’s attorneys and Roc Nation, accusing them of engaging in illegal activities to obstruct justice. In a statement shared on Instagram, Buzbee alleged that lawyers Marcy Croft and Quinn Emanuel, acting on behalf of Roc Nation, orchestrated a scheme to intimidate and discredit his firm.

“These agents pretended to be working for the State of Texas and offered the former client money to sue the Buzbee Law Firm,” Buzbee stated.

He further alleged that this scheme has occurred over two dozen times, with agents offering up to $10,000 to former clients to file frivolous lawsuits against his firm. Buzbee also claims the conspiracy aims to derail his firm’s pursuit of cases tied to the Diddy litigation in New York.

“This illegal conduct isn’t just alleged—it was caught on tape,” he wrote in the statement.

Despite the alleged efforts to silence his firm, Buzbee made it clear he will not back down.

“These folks have stooped to a new low to try to intimidate us, but let me be clear: we will not be bullied or intimidated,” he wrote.

Bhad Bhabie & Alabama Barker Feud Escalates Amid Shocking Assault Allegations 

By: London JennnCategory: News

The feud between Bhad Bhabie and Alabama Barker intensified after the 18-year-old daughter of Travis Barker accused the rapper’s boyfriend of assaulting her.  

The drama kicked off on Monday (December 16), when the 21-year-old OnlyFans creator accused Barker of taking her boyfriend and child’s father, Le Vaughn, from her.    

However, Barker returned fire on Tuesday, insisting that she doesn’t want Le Vaughn and alleged he hit her with a bottle during a trip to Las Vegas last year. She took to her Instagram Stories to Le Vaughn on blast, posting a photo of the eye injury she allegedly sustained.  

“LV and our friend group traveled to Las Vegas last year prior to me knowing that they were together, during which he threw a bottle at my head, resulting in a significant injury,” she wrote. “His behavior was not only reckless but also deeply concerning. It’s troubling to see that, despite his actions, she continues to defend him, even after what I told her he had done.” 

Meanwhile, Bhad Bhabie previously accused Le Vaughn of assault. The couple initially separated but reconciled after the rapper revealed he was seeking help.   

Barker continued, claiming Le Vaughn is “manipulating” Bhad Bhabie and “feeding her a distorted narrative to justify his behavior.” 

Barker insisted Le Vaughn “deceived me” and claims to have the evidence to back it up. She also said that he repeatedly expressed his love for her, but she has turned down his advances. Despite this, Barker claimed Le Vaughn had continued “harassing” her.

Bhad Bhabie Responds To Alabama Barker

Bhad Bhabie also addressed the drama on her Instagram Stories, posting alleged screenshots of Alabama Barker threatening to expose Le Vaughn. 

“I truly believe she only entertained him [because] he’s my baby daddy,” the 21-year-old wrote. “Shading me like I did something to you is even more crazy. You did something I did absolutely nothing to you.” 

While Alabama Barker deleted her initial posts, the drama with Bhad Bhabie rumbles on. She vowed to drop “all receipts” on Wednesday in a TikTok video.

Papoose Sets Record Straight Following Fat Joe’s Remarks On Remy Ma Drama 

By: London JennnCategory: News

Papoose has taken to social media to clear up any confusion after Fat Joe addressed the Brooklyn rapper’s recent spat with Remy Ma during a recent interview. 

Papoose and Remy Ma’s relationship drama exploded on social media last week after the latter accused the former of having a relationship with boxer Claressa Shields.  

Fat Joe, a close friend of the former couple, revealed he was stunned at the news. 

“[Remy Ma] never tells me her personal relationship business, but what I know is I left y’all last night, we went to Brooklyn Chophouse, she treated 10 grown men to dinner, and I woke up in the morning and my phone was going crazy,” Fat Joe said. “They was like, ‘Yo, look what’s going on. I’m like, what the f###?’” 

However, it seems Fat Joe’s comments were misunderstood, leading some to believe that Papoose was part of the dinner party. 

The TuneCore executive set the record straight on his Instagram Story Tuesday night (December 17). Despite his love for the restaurant, Pap confirmed he wasn’t with Remy and Fat Joe.  

“Peace to my brother @fatjoe I think y’all misunderstood his interview,” he wrote. “I was not at @brooklynchophouse with them.” 

During his interview with Math Hoffa on the “My Expert Opinion” podcast, Fat Joe revealed he’s close to both Remy Ma and Papoose and cannot intervene despite being a known peacemaker. 

“What I can’t do is stop it, or they won’t listen to me,” he admitted. “The first time she ever asked me for advice, I said, ‘Listen, it’s different. You have a husband, this is your husband’. Nobody come to my house, tell my wife s#it. This is your husband, I can’t get in the middle of that s#it.” 

JAY-Z’s Roc Nation Hit With Illegal Solicitation Lawsuit From Attorney Tony Buzbee 

By: London JennnCategory: News

JAY-Z’s Roc Nation is being sued by Texas attorney Tony Buzbee, the lawyer representing a woman accusing Hov and Diddy of assaulting her in 2000. 

On Wednesday morning (December 17), Buzbee issued a statement announcing the lawsuit.  

“Today The Buzbee Law Firm filed suit against Roc Nation, and lawyers Marcy Croft, and Quinn Emanuel for violation of various state laws, including barratry and impersonation of a public official,” Buzbee wrote. 

Barratry is the practice of illegally soliciting clients, commonly referred to as “ambulance chasing,” an allegation JAY-Z previously levied at Tony Buzbee.  

Buzbee continued, “The case was brought on behalf of a former client of the firm who was illegally solicited by agents working on behalf of the Defendants. These agents pretended to [work] for the State of Texas and offered the former client money to sue the Buzbee Law Firm.” 

The attorney claims this happened “more than two dozen times,” resulting in “two utterly frivolous cases” against the Buzbee Law Firm. 

Buzbee claims the defendants are attempting to “obstruct justice” and prevent the firm from pursuing cases relating to Sean “Diddy” Combs in New York.  

“The conduct isn’t just alleged—it was caught on tape,” he added.

JAY-Z’s Attorneys Accuse Tony Buzbee Of Extortion

Last week JAY-Z’s legal team claimed that Buzbee coerced another alleged victim into fabricating accusations against prominent individuals as part of a financial extortion plot. 

Their legal filing included claims about one who reportedly approached Buzbee’s firm with unrelated abuse allegations but was coerced into tying her claims to JAY-Z and Diddy. 

However, Buzbee claims JAY-Z’s “Team Roc” agents “were caught on tape soliciting and offering money (up to $10,000) to former clients of The Buzbee Law Firm to convince them to file a frivolous case against the Buzbee Law Firm.”  

Buzbee added, “LET ME BE CLEAR: we will not be bullied or intimidated. The Defendants this time overstepped, got sloppy, and stupidly got caught at their illegal scheme on tape.” 

He also revealed the firm reported the matter to authorities and intends to fully cooperate with any prosecution. 

Meanwhile, JAY-Z’s attorney, Alex Spiro, held a press briefing earlier this week following the Jane Doe accuser’s recent interview admitting multiple discrepancies in her account. 

Spiro said Doe’s story is not only a “lie,” but it is “provably demonstrably false.”  

JAY-Z also fired back at Tony Buzbee from the Roc Nation Instagram account. He blasted Buzbee, accusing him of filing a “false complaint against me in the pursuit of money and fame.”  

He asserted, “True Justice is coming. We fight FROM victory, not FOR victory. This was over before it began. This 1-800 lawyer doesn’t realize it yet, but, soon.”

Offset Fires Back After Cardi B’s Explosive Spaces Chat About Her Lovers 

By: London JennnCategory: News

Offset and Cardi B have returned to airing out their dirty laundry and are trading shots on social media despite an apparent recent truce. 

The pair partied together during Offset’s birthday celebrations in Miami over the weekend. However, they returned to mudslinging after Cardi B called out her “d###### fanbase” for exposing her secret lovers. 

She blasted fans on X (Twitter) during a Spaces chat late on Tuesday evening (December 17). She told Bardi Gang she’s being “a hoe” to annoy the men in her life. According to Cardi B, when one man “plays games,” she runs to another of her “hoes.” 

However, a recent post upset her plans. “I ain’t giving p#### to nobody no more,” she insisted. “Everyone talks too much.” 

Cardi B also denied being in love with Offset, declaring, “No one loves nobody, I’m in my hoeing era.”

Her Spaces chat came after social media users accused Offset of stalking Cardi B because they were partying at the same club despite their divorce.  

However, Offset had enough of the accusations, lashing out on social media.  

“I took this but I was stalking?” he wrote alongside an image of Cardi B taken on Saturday (December 14), the night Offset celebrated his 33rd birthday. “How I follow a mf to my party?” 

Cardi B seemingly responded by calling Offset a “groupie” before deleting the tweet. 

Offset is apparently also keeping tabs on his estranged wife’s social media posts, responding to her “groupie” post and Spaces chat.  

“Groupe,” he wrote. “It’s a whole video u had me take [laughing emoji]. stop lying for these strangers twin I can no longer look the way u got me looking for these ppl.” 

In a follow-up post, he added, “We got two little girls and you say online u in hoe season.” 

Both Cardi B and Offset deleted their tweets. 

The latest spat comes after the Atlanta rapper’s social media accounts were hacked. Messages surfaced online showing Offset accusing Cardi of cheating and getting pregnant for another man.   

She hit back by leaking her own messages where she accused Offset of cheating and named his alleged fling. 

Then, on Monday (December 16), Offset shared a cryptic social media post seemingly aimed at Cardi.  

“Lies told to make me look bad,” he wrote over an image of him at his recent birthday bash. “I couldn’t play how you do pray for them kids.”

The Fenty billionaire was in the audience at the Barclays Center on Tuesday (December 17), as the superstar songstress made a triumphant return to the stage following a recent bout of sickness.

Meg filed a lawsuit against Gramz earlier this year, accusing her of waging a cyberstalking campaign on behalf of Tory Lanez. She sued for defamation, harassment, and cyberstalking, which she claims caused significant emotional and reputational harm.   

The Zelle records show Lanez’s father made six payments to the blogger between October 2020 and March 2022, totaling $3,000. 

Megan accuses Lanez of engaging in “psychological warfare,” which she says has deeply affected her mental health.  

In the document, Megan stated she “sometimes wishes Tory would have shot and killed me, if I would have known I was going to go through this torture.” 

The “HISS” hitmaker, real name Megan Pete, claims Lanez has continued to harass her from prison.  

“Despite being sentenced to 10 years in prison for shooting Ms. Pete, Mr. Peterson continues to subject her to repeated trauma and revictimization,” the filing alleges. 

Additionally, in a recent filing, Megan Thee Stallion’s attorneys produced recordings of Lanez’s prison calls. In one alleged call, Lanez and his father “confidently asserted” Megan “would be unable to prove” Lanez paid Gramz for “attacking” her.  

The complaint accuses Gramz, who is represented by Tory Lanez attorneys, of “consciously coordinating,” with the singer to amplify his “disproven and baseless theories to help him seek retribution” against Megan Thee Stallion. 

Diddy’s Alleged Drug Mule Cleared Of All Felony Charges 

By: London JennnCategory: News

Sean “Diddy” Combs’ alleged drug mule, Brendan Paul, is reportedly off the hook after Florida prosecutors dropped the felony charges against him. 

Paul was arrested for carrying cocaine and marijuana-laced candy back in March after being apprehended at Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport. Cops took him into custody on the same day Homeland Security raided Diddy’s Los Angeles and Miami homes as part of their sex trafficking investigation. 

The 25-year-old was held on bond after being charged with cocaine possession and possession of a controlled substance. 

Additionally, producer Lil Rod named Paul in his sexual assault lawsuit against Diddy. He claimed Paul was a drug mule who allegedly acquired and distributed drugs and guns to the Hip-Hop mogul. 

The producer claimed he personally witnessed Paul engage in these activities on multiple occasions.  

In May, Paul accepted a plea deal with prosecutors for the cocaine possession charge. As a first-time offender, he managed to avoid jail time, agreeing to enroll in a drug diversion program. 

His attorney, Brian Bieber, claimed the case against Paul would be “dismissed in its entirety,” upon completion of the program. 

On Tuesday (December 17) Florida state prosecutors dropped the remaining charge, NBC6 reports.  

Bieber confirmed to the outlet, “Mr. Paul’s case was formally dismissed today – in its entirety.” 

While his alleged drug mule is now a free man, Diddy remains behind bars. He’ll be spending Christmas behind bars after recently dropping his bail appeal.  

Diddy pleaded not guilty to serious federal charges, including sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation for prostitution. He remains held at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center. His trial is set for May 2025. 

Fat Joe Explains Why He Won’t Come Between Remy Ma & Papoose Feud

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: News

Fat Joe recently shared his candid thoughts on why he’s staying out of the ongoing feud between estranged Hip-Hop husband-and-wife duo Remy Ma and Papoose.

The New York rap vet explained his rationale during his recent appearance on the Math Hoffa podcast while addressing Remy and Papoose’s recent social media spat over boxer Claressa Shields. Despite his history as a peacemaker and bridge between the rappers he considers family, the Bronx legend revealed that this situation hits too close to home for him to get involved. Joe began by explaining how he found out about the tension mere hours after he spent a night celebrating with his “All The Way Up” collaborator.

“She [Remy Ma] never tells me her personal relationship business, but what I know is I left y’all last night, we went to Brooklyn Chophouse, she treated 10 grown men to dinner, and I woke up in the morning and my phone was going crazy,” Fat Joe said in part. “They was like, ‘Yo, look what’s going on. I’m like, what the f###?’”

Fat Joe admitted it’s a tough situation when asked how he manages his relationship with both Remy and Papoose.

“Because of him, she made me love him,” he said, emphasizing his bond with Papoose. “I really love him that’s my goddaughter’s father. It’s a whole bunch of, you know, I’m like, I try to tell y’all I’m old school morals and s###. So like with me, it’s like, damn, like I’m the godfather. These people pass away, I raise the baby. I don’t like none of that s###.”

Despite his love for both of them, Joe made it clear that he doesn’t see himself as the right person to mediate.

“What I can’t do is stop it, or they won’t listen to me,” he admitted. “The first time she ever asked me for advice, I said, ‘Listen, it’s different. You have a husband, this is your husband’. Nobody come to my house, tell my wife s#it. This is your husband, I can’t get in the middle of that s#it.”

Fat Joe also spoke about the emotional weight of the situation, particularly because of the couple’s child.

“My goddaughter is the most beautiful kid in the world,” he said. “She’s so… you know, I wish this didn’t happen.”

When asked about shielding children from public drama, Joe also reflected on his own experience navigating a public disagreement as a celebrity by explaining how his son reacted during his infamous beef with 50 Cent.

Snoop Dogg Reveals He Called Kendrick Lamar To Apologize For Posting Drake Diss

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: News

Lil Wayne isn’t the only rap veteran to come into the lyrical crosshairs of Kendrick Lamar. Like his New Orleans counterpart, Snoop Dogg reached out to the former Top Dawg Entertainment artist as a result.

Snoop, fresh off the release of the Dr. Dre-produced Missionary album, recently sat down with Bootleg Kev’s podcast, where he opened up about contacting Lamar after he name-dropped him on his GNX album track “wacced out murals” over inadvertently instigating the Drake beef.

As the West Coast legend addressed the situation, he revealed that he called Lamar after realizing he had reposted Drake’s “Taylor Made Freestyle” on his personal social media, though his initial post imploring Lamar to respond suggests otherwise. Snoop explained that he supports Lamar’s remarks on the song and insists that he initially didn’t grasp the gravity of Drake’s diss track.

“That’s my nephew, man,” Snoop Dogg said. “He’s a rapper, man. He’s supposed to speak his mind and tell his truth. That’s the way he felt. You know what I’m saying? He has the right to say that. I’m his big homeboy, so I have to take what’s given to me from his perspective because he’s speaking truth. And the truth shouldn’t hurt you. It should make you better.”

He continued, “He feels that I shouldn’t have played that. Damn, I was on them edibles, my n#gga. I gotta be more careful. You right, nephew.”

Snoop Dogg further clarified how the situation unfolded, saying he had unknowingly collaborated on a post that featured the diss track because he was mistakenly under the impression that it was a promotion for he and Dr. Dre’s fledging spirit brand.

“What happened was, I did a collaborative post with someone…” he said. “So when I post it, I’m thinking I’m posting Gin and Juice. I don’t know what song this is. I’m not hip to everybody’s music.”

After realizing his mistake, Snoop said he wasted no time reaching out to Lamar.

“Then I get the word, ‘Nephew didn’t like what you did.’” he recalled. “‘What did I do?’ ‘You played some music’. ‘What music?’ Then I had to go look at it. I’m like, ‘Oh, that’s cuz… damn.’ So then I deleted it, called nephew, left him a message ’cause he ain’t pick up. He was working on his s#it. I left him a message. ‘I apologize. I was f#cked up, my bad’.”

When asked about Drake’s use of his voice in the controversial AI-generated “Taylor Made Freestyle,” Snoop distanced himself from the situation.

“Man, I don’t want to be in nobody’s s#it, man,” he said. “I like being on my own s#it. When it comes to beef, that’s a real parameter that I do have. I don’t get in nobody’s beef. I’m usually the one who ends the beef.”

In April, when Drake originally posted the diss, Snoop appeared to do the opposite and egged the situation on in a humorous and sarcastic post.

“They did what?” he wrote in the caption. “When? How? Are you sure? [Sigh] Y’all have a good night. Why everybody calling my phone, blowing me up? What the f#ck— what happened? What’s going on? I’m going back to bed. Good night.”

Snoop ended the conversation after sharing his brief thoughts on the legal complaints Drake has filed against Spotify and Universal Music Group regarding Lamar’s “Not Like Us” diss.

“Next question,” he said with a laugh, before concluding with a final nod to West Coast culture. “You know, we on the West, we hold court in the streets.”

Cardi B Sparks Debate After She Claims Men Date “Unattractive” Women Just To Manipulate Them

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: Rumors

Cardi B made her controversial opinion about men’s dating strategies known during her latest unfiltered livestream session.

The Bronx-bred rapper stirred up a storm after sharing her candid thoughts on why men date women they consider to be less attractive. According to Cardi, it’s all about control, rather than a man’s ability to properly court what she considers a high value woman. She backed up her claim by explaining her theory that “b#tches” who are essentially desperate are more likely to put up with unsavory things in their relationships.

“These b#tches, they don’t have nothing, they have to tolerate everything,” Cardi B began, launching into her fiery take. “If a n#gga do some f#ck s#it, the next day, the b#tch is gonna answer the phone.”

The “WAP” hitmaker hardly stopped there and went on to draw a sharp comparison to how she—and presumably other women of her status—handles disrespect in their relationships.

“You do some f#ck s### to me, I’m putting you on f#cking yellow, n#gga,” she said before holding up a glass of ice water. “You on this. This is where you at, on ice.”

As if Cardi B’s latest rant wasn’t already on an eyebrow-raising roll, she upped the ante by sharing an anecdote about a wealthy man, who Cardi B alleges admitted his dating preferences directly correlate with her proposed thesis.

“I know a guy—a rich, rich muthafucka—and he literally told me to my face, ‘I’d rather deal with a seven and an eight than a 10,’” she revealed.

Cardi added women who aren’t “10s” are willing to settle, saying, “They just don’t feel like they gotta compete. Like, one little thing, and they’re off. They just gotta feel like they already picking.”

According to Cardi B, women who rank as 10s on the mythical attractiveness scale refuse to play along, which some men find intimidating.

“These 10s are not trying to compete,” she said. “They’re just trying to get picked. It’s crazy how that’s how men are thinking nowadays.”

The controversial comments quickly set social media ablaze, with fans and critics alike debating her claims. She recently confessed to leaking her own text conversation with ex Offset because she wanted to make sure she looked like a “bad b#tch.” Cardi and Offset went through a number of infidelity issues before she announced their separation earlier this year.

USHER Stunned By Rubi Rose & Friend’s Raunchy Cherry Eating Antics At Miami Show 

By: London JennnCategory: News

USHER was left speechless after trying to feed a cherry to Rubi Rose and getting more than he bargained for when her friend joined in the fun. 

The R&B singer likes to put on a show at his concerts, engaging with the crowd, particularly his celebrity guests, in unique ways. He regularly went viral for serenading the ladies, a signature move that became a staple of his Las Vegas residency. 

His latest crowd-pleaser involves USHER feeding cherries to his chosen female audience members. The prop has become a notable part of his shows and has created some memorable moments.  

The latest came at his Past Present Future tour stop in Miami on Monday night (December 16).  

USHER was making his way through the audience, cherry in hand, when he spotted Rubi Rose. He made a beeline for the rapper before dangling the cherry over her mouth.  

Rubi Rose toyed with the cherry suggestively before pulling her friend in as USHER looked on, speechless.  

Rubi Rose playfully teased the cherry before pulling her friend in to eat it with her, leaving USHER speechless. 

“When u shy but a real eater,” Rubi Rose wrote alongside a clip of the moment on X (Twitter). 

While USHER was keen to feed his cherry to Rubi Rose, he was initially reluctant when T.I. suggested the singer pull his signature move on the rapper’s wife, Tiny Harris.  

The couple were in the audience at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia, last week when USHER passed by with his cup of cherries.  

He soon gave in, and T.I. stood by as Tiny and USHER entertained the crowd. 

Bhad Bhabie Accuses Travis Barker’s Daughter Alabama Of Stealing Boyfriend Le Vaughn 

By: London JennnCategory: Rumors

Bhad Bhabie is going off on Travis Barker’s 18-year-old daughter, Alabama Barker, accusing her of taking her boyfriend and child’s father, Le Vaughn, from her.  

On Monday (December 16), Bhad Bhabie took to social media to put Barker on blast.  

“[Alabama Barker] took my man,” she wrote. She followed up with a series of posts, asserting her newly single status.  “I told LV next time I catch you,” the OnlyFans creator added, “You gone b with them!”  

Alabama Barker didn’t respond to Bhad Bhabie directly, instead writing “Ew” on Instagram. 

However, Barker seemingly addressed the situation on her IG Stories, posting an image of her backed by her new song, “Vogue.” 

“Anyways…..Stream Vogue,” she wrote.  

Bhad Bhabie fans flooded the comment section of Barker’s latest Instagram post, leaving comments like, “So you stole Danielle BD or not?” 

The Alabama Barker accusations arrive less than two weeks after Bhad Bhabie revealed she wants to have more children with Le Vaughn once her cancer treatments are over.   

However, her demeanor in the video raised concerns amid the model’s domestic violence allegations earlier this year. She accused LeVaughn of beating her alongside graphic images of the alleged abuse. 

“I love that man more than I love myself and it’s honestly really sad,” she wrote on Instagram. “But unfortunately this is real life. I know the easy way out is to leave and that’s better said than done. This doesn’t happen this extreme often, but LV definitely has a problem.” 

Bhad Bhabie subsequently claimed Le Vaughn was seeking help, and they reconciled.
