Selena Gomez Weighs In On Kanye and Kim’s Feud With Taylor – But Gets Dissed For Silence On Police Violence

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

(AllHipHop News) Selena Gomez has vented her frustrations with the “disappointing” showbiz industry as the feud reignites between Kim Kardashian and Taylor Swift.

The “Shake It Off” singer has been in a long-running war of words with rapper Kanye West and his wife Kim ever since he released his track Famous earlier this year and used the line, “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex… I made that b##ch famous.”

Taylor’s team maintained that Kanye never called her to get approval and she wasn’t aware of all the lyrics, but Kim sensationally released a series of Snapchat videos on Sunday night which showed Kanye’s original phone conversation with Taylor about the song.

Selena, a firm member of Taylor’s ‘squad,’ appeared to defend her best pal by slamming stars for using their fame to spread hate between celebrities rather than focus on important current affairs, such as the recent shooting in the U.S. and the terror attack in Nice, France.

“There are more important things to talk about… Why can’t people use their voice for something that f##king matters?” Selena tweeted. “Truth is last thing we need right now is hate, in any form… This industry is so disappointing yet the most influential smh (shaking my head).”

However, social media users then turned on Selena, noting that she has kept largely silent on issues such as the Black Lives Matter movement and police brutality.

She responded to one user in a now-deleted tweet, which reads, “oh lol (laugh out loud) so that means if I hashtag something I save lives? No – I could give two f##ks about ‘sides’. You don’t know what I do.”

Since Kim released the videos, Taylor issued a statement insisted she never heard the song and was not made aware of the “that b##ch” lyric. She wrote, “Being falsely painted as a liar when I was never given the full story or played any part of the song is character assassination.”

Katy Perry, who is considered another Taylor rival, also seemed to reference the drama by promoting her new song Rise with the caption, “#RISE above it all,” as the drama was unfolding.

British singer Lily Allen also got involved by blasting the stars for setting a bad example to their fans, tweeting that the drama “makes the internet feel a lot like school tonight. All involved are too old tbh (to be honest).”

Floyd Mayweather And The Money Team Deny Any Connection To Baton Rouge Cop Killer

By: G.Avant (@G_Avant)Category: News

(AllHipHop News) Floyd Mayweather and his TMT brand are doing their best to distance themselves from Baton Rouge cop killer Gavin Long.

Long, of Kansas City went on a cop killing spree on his 29th birthday Sunday in which he killed three police officers and wounded three others.

The attack is believed to be retaliation for the unfortunate murder of Alton Sterling in Baton Rouge by police on July 5. The killer was also a former Sargent in the Marines.

According to TMZ, Mayweather and his brand felt the need to distance themselves because Long had actually previously posted several video rants to YouTube in which he was sporting a TMT hat and a TMT sticker on his chair.

“Gavin Long is not member of TMT by any means,” Floyd’s rep stated. “Floyd doesn’t want the TMT brand to be affiliated with the violent act Gavin has caused and neither Floyd nor anyone else from TMT knows him.”

“He is just a random guy who supported the brand but we don’t support him and what he did to those police officers,” the rep for Floyd Mayweather added.

Long was eventually murdered by police in a shootout following the shootings.

Unless Drizzy just has a great relationship with Iggy, why would he need to or decide to collaborate with her? What are your thoughts?

EXCLUSIVE: Spoken Word Artist Malik Yusef Talks Co-Writing Beyonce’s “Sandcastles”

By: Yohance Kyles (@HUEYmixwitRILEY)Category: News

(AllHipHop News) “We built sandcastles that washed away. I made you cry when I walked away,” sings Beyoncé Knowles on track 8 of her platinum album Lemonade.

The emotionally charged “Sandcastles” was created as a joint effort between Knowles, Vincent Berry II, Midian Mathers, and Malik Yusef.

In a recent interview with AllHipHop.com, Yusef discussed his co-writing contribution to Bey’s ballad. The tune was partially envisioned during a car ride with his child.

“I actually have the original. It was May 16, 2013. I was driving in my car listening to some music,” says Yusef. “My daughter had just turned four. She was in the backseat, and you can hear it in the voicemail. It might come out eventually.”

The spoken word performer continues, “I came up with the chorus, verse, and the melody. That’s the artist I am. I’m always in my mind thinking of melodies. I can’t stop. It’s almost like a disease of sort. There’s always melodies and words flowing out of me almost non-stop.”

Yusef also worked with Kanye West on The Life Of Pablo and Vic Mensa on There’s Alot Going On. The Chicago native wants it to be clearly known that he does not “ghostwrite” for these performers, it’s a collaborative process.

“People say, ‘Malik writes for Kanye.’ I don’t write for Kanye. I write with Kanye. I don’t write for Vic. I write with Vic,” explains Yusef. “Vic can do it by himself. Kanye can do it by himself too. They allow me [to co-write].”

Drake’s “Views” Reclaims #1 Spot

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

(AllHipHop News) Drake has reclaimed the number one spot on the U.S. album chart with Views.

The “One Dance” star’s album rebounds from second to first place, making it his 10th non-consecutive week atop the Billboard 200.

Views spent the first nine weeks in the top spot until Blink-182 took the crown after their California album was released on 1 July (16).

The pop punks’ record now moves down two spots to third place.

With the Toronto rapper back on top, Views becomes only the 10th album in the past 20 years to spend 10 weeks at number one.

Adele’s 21 holds the record for 24 weeks in the top spot, while Drake is now tied with the British soul star’s latest effort, 25, and Backstreet Boys’ Millennium for a 10-week reign.

In addition, Views now has the most weeks at number one for an album by a solo male artist since Billy Ray Cyrus’ Some Gave All ended a 17-week run at number one in 1992.

Drake also surpasses Usher’s nine-week record with Confessions in 2004.

Back in the Billboard 200, rapper ScHoolboy Q is at #2 with the debut of his Blank Face LP, while Twenty One Pilots’ Blurryface rises from five to four.

The soundtrack to blockbuster musical “Hamilton” jumps from eighth place to fifth, most likely due to the recent departure of creator and star Lin-Manuel Miranda and original cast members Leslie Odom, Jr. and Phillipa Soo.

M.I.A. Dropped From Afropunk London Festival After Black Lives Matter Comments

By: Yohance Kyles (@HUEYmixwitRILEY)Category: News

(AllHipHop News) M.I.A. was scheduled to be the headliner of the first annual Afropunk Festival in London.

That was before concert goers demanded the “Paper Planes” singer be pulled from the bill over some of her statements about the Black Lives Matter movement.

Festival organizers have now announced that M.I.A. will not be part of the event.

The controversy stems from the English rapper saying, “It’s that in America the problem you’re allowed to talk about is Black Lives Matter.”

She also questioned if other entertainers such as Beyoncé and Kendrick Lamar would address “Muslim Lives Matter? Or Syrian Lives Matter? Or this kid in Pakistan matters?”

Last month, M.I.A. suggested she might pull herself from Afropunk. The final word of her removal came down from the festival’s organizers.
