Previously, the “A Milli” musician had amassed a list of tax liens. Back in 2014, the sizable amount of about $868,079.89 was imposed by the Department of the Treasury. Adding to his financial burden, the Federal government contends that Mr. Carter failed to pay taxes for the years of 2012 and 2011. For the respective years, Uncle Sam is holding Wayne responsible for not paying the $6,311,132 or the $5,843,952 that was owed.

Given the seemingly endless financial difficulties that Lil Wayne has encountered is it time for him to get a new accountant?

Someone Is Claiming Kanye West Had An Affair With His Assistant!

Although Kanye West shut down Amber Rose’s claims of him liking to get his a**hole played with, someone else is telling a different story. Celebrity gossip site Fameolous.com received a tip that Kanye has allegedly been having an affair with a former male model turned Yeezy assistant.

The source told Fameolous,

“I have some serious TEA to spill. The rumors about Kanye liking his ass played with are true. My ex-bestfriend has been f*cking around with him for years – and has confirmed Kanye is VERS! Meaning he gives and takes d*ck – quite well. It all started when they met in Paris during a fashion week private after party. After being introduced by a mutual photographer friend, the two spent the entire night and morning together. Keenan was then hired as Kanye’s “1st Assistant” and attended his show in Paris.

Keenan told me the reason why Kanye likes him is because he’s so “low profile” and educated. The two have taken numerous international trips together but always to low-key destinations like Guadeloupe or Ghana. Where they know paparazzi doesn’t really exist. Recently the two went back to Spain were Keenan’s friend has an apartment. Keenan has gotten mad gifts from money, shoes, concert/fashion show tickets, and trips. He also spends time with Kanye in the studio.”

The source claims that the reason they are revealing the alleged relationship is because the guy Keenan’s head needs to be shut down! These are some pretty serious allegations in regards to Kanye’s life and sexuality. What are your thoughts? Allegedly this is they guy (below.)

Tyga’s Alleged Transgender Side Chick Claims He’s Bisexual & Suicidal

Photo via Tyga’s Instagram

Tyga’s alleged transgender lover, Mia Isabella, is back at it again. It has been said for some time that Tyga had an affair with the transgender “model and actress”. In the past Mia accused Tyga and his team of orchestrating a fake witch hunt to make him look like the victim. Allegedly Tyga carried on an affair with Mia even while he was with Kylie Jenner and Blac Chyna. It looks like Mia is either fed up with Tyga again or basically on another one of her publicity stunts. Mia took to Instagram to give Tyga a public 3 year anniversary message. She claims that she is tired of keeping their love affair a secret, and that she has lost a lot in doing so. She goes as far as to accuse Tyga of being bisexual and suicidal. She said,

“People have spent almost a year pointing their fingers at me calling me a liar making me a stereotype in the media so now I’m gonna give you what you want. I worked my ass off building my career and book deal to not only lose that but also to lose my soul mate because I made him walk away from me with the b####### you put us in due to your frivolous behavior. 7 months I stayed suffering and depressed protecting you while losing everything. I’m not taking any more L’s for you f### you. All this time all I asked while you and your team tried extort me into silence with threats and bribery was to tell the world I did nothing wrong. Very simple, I didn’t release anything and I NEVER threatened to release a sextape but you decided to let the world make me a villain and you the victim and you weren’t. Truth is I didn’t accept offers of money for silence or career opportunities I did it because you made reference of suicide and I cared too much about you to have that weight on my hands. My heart has been too heavy with your responsibility. The responsibility and promise you made to protect me and my private life from your world that you broke. I have 3.5 years of truth I could spill in a tell all but I won’t. People should know all the messages were real including this one. And I bet you never told Kylie the truth like I told Colin and my ex fiance that we were cheating on them huh? I can face my mistakes with honesty can you? I was never checking for you yet you stayed chasing me like a puppy begging for treats with an appetite no piece of p#### can ever fill for you. Your bisexuality for women and Trans women is highly common in heterosexual men. Own your s### so nobody can ever use it against you again. But I’m not hiding anything anymore & not carrying your shame its too heavy for me so HERE you can have it back now. I don’t have to hide I’ve never lived in the closet that’s your burden to carry. Your lucky I dont sue your ass for everything you put me through but I won’t because you don’t have anything that I want all I want is my dignity so I’m taking it back.
Happy 3.5 year anniversary an early Valentines gift for you <3 @kinggoldchains"

WOWZERS. Could Tyga be bisexual?

(AllHipHop News) Today (Feb. 9), lyrical legend, Ghostface Killah, issued a video response to Martin Shkreli’s series of idle threats.

Since then, a delusional Shkreli has made several statements about what he’d like to do to Ghostface. The pharmaceutical exec believes that Ghost knowingly disrespected him. Martin has been working to engage Pretty Tony into a Wifi-Beef. “I don’t even know how it came to this,” quips an exasperated Ghost. “Like this, it’s Ghost versus Peter Pan in 2016.”

Before completely dismissing Shkreli, Ghostface, probed deeper into his perceived-character. Pee-wee Herman, fake Batman villians, and Peter Pan were the fanciful people to which Ghost compared Shkreli. “I don’t care how much money you got. Money don’t make you a man, bro,” said  Ghost.

As opposed to goons, Ghostdini, taps these unexpected people to put Martin Shkreli into his place.

It looks like Iggy Azalea may have slipped up and revealed to TMZ that her and Swaggy P aka Nick Young may have already gotten married. TMZ asked Iggy if she would raise her future kids in Australia or in the United States, and Iggy replied saying that she would like them to spend time in both. They also asked Iggy if she thinks Nick wants kids with an Australian twinge. Iggy said,

“He better; he has a wife with one.”

Hmmmm maybe the two jumped the broom, or maybe Iggy is speaking it all into existence.

Tyler isn’t someone that you would expect to catch in his feelings, so when you press play on this visuals for his song “Perfect” get ready for the unexpected.

Cam Newton And Beyoncé’s Super Bowl Sunday Was A Black Panther Party Dream Deferred

My Super Bowl Sunday was a gumbo of ironies.

This is how it would go:

  • I would spend the afternoon at the Apollo for a screening of a new movie The Black Panthers: Vanguard Of The Revolution.
  • At night, we would watch Cam Newton lead the Carolina Panthers to win Super Bowl 50 over the war ready Denver Broncos.
  • Yes, it was the 50th Super Bowl and it was also the 50th year that the Black Panther Party For Self Defense was founded. We now know my idyllic night was not meant to be.

The Apollo was a moving moment. It was a full house. There were official Black Panthers in the audience and later, others would take the stage on a moving panel discussion anchored by the film. Hey, there were even some fake Panthers that were quickly vetted and exposed. It was greatness. The energy was electric and celebratory as well.

And then the movie started.

The Black Panthers: Vanguard Of The Revolution is incredible. It is also sad. The documentary really chronicles the illegal murder, persecution and annihilation of a community pillar. Most people forget “For Self Defense” off the party’s name, because it simply does not bode well with the narrative we have been fed over the years. The movement begins with the formation of the party with Bobby Seale and Huey P. Newton to the remarkable growth internationally. It was an incredible rise and response to the oppressive and systemically racist times. I was filled with rage after seeing how they dismantled the Panthers, largely through illegal tactics, lies, deception, hatred and even straight up murder as was the case with Fred Hampton. Tears. Anger. Applause.


And then the game started. Everything seemingly and symbolically went downhill from there…

Will Smith Discusses His Son Jaden Smith Wearing Women’s Clothes (VIDEO)

(AllHipHop News) Jaden Smith sparked a lot of conversation about gender roles and the image of masculinity when he decided to be a model for Louis Vuitton’s womenswear campaign. His father, Will Smith, discussed the 17-year-old’s fashion choices during an interview with BBC Radio 1Xtra’s A. Dot.

“I think it may have been a mistake,” joked Will when asked about giving his kids the ability to express themselves freely. “We may have gone too far.”

Both Jaden and his sister Willow Smith have faced heavy scrutiny for their respective gender-bending appearances. Will spoke about having to handle seeing his children chastised and ridiculed for the clothes they choose to wear.

“There’s really a powerful internal quality as an artist that, as parents, we encourage. You got to get out on the edge. You have to try things. You have to be comfortable doing things that people don’t agree with. And you have to be comfortable doing things that you can fail,” Will stated. “Jaden is 100 percent fearless. He will do anything. So, as a parent, it’s scary. It’s really terrifying, but he is completely willing to live and die by his own artistic decisions. He just doesn’t concern himself with what people think.”

First Week Sales Predictions For Future, Wiz Khalifa & Young Thug Are In

(AllHipHop News) Last week saw the arrival of three projects from popular rap stars. Hits Daily Double has crunched the numbers, and the predictions for the first week sales of Future’s EVOL, Wiz Khalifa’s Khalifa, and Young Thug’s I’m Up have been calculated.

[ALSO READ: Young Thug & Future Exchange Subliminal Disses Online]

According to HDD, Future is closing in on the #1 spot on the album chart. The Atlanta native’s latest effort is expected to sell between 110,000 – 115,000 copies with a total of around 150,000 units with streaming numbers added in. If that prediction holds up, EVOL will be Future’s third #1 album in less than a year (DS2, What A Time to Be Alive with Drake).

Wiz is looking to come in with 45,000 – 50,000 (55,000 – 60,000 SPS) copies for his self-titled album. That’s a drop from 2014’s Blacc Hollywood which opened with 90,000 copies. His highest first sales week to date came in 2011 when Rolling Papers sold 197,000 copies.

The first week sales for Young Thug’s I’m Up EP are likely to be slightly less than the first week sales for his Barter 6 in 2015. B6 sold 17,000 copies and his latest project is expected to sell between 14,000 – 16,000 (17,000 -20,000 SPS).

Kanye West Changes Album Title Again, Announces Contest For Free Yeezys

(AllHipHop News) Merely days before Kanye West releases his 7th solo album, it appears the G.O.O.D. Music boss has finally settled on a title. The new collection will not be called So Help Me God, Swish, or Waves.

[ALSO READ: Kanye West Says New Album Could Get Another “Secret” Title]

Kanye made the announcement on Twitter. He posted a tweet that read, “@studio /final verses /new album title T.L.O.P.” The “No Parties In L.A.” rhymer later added, “That’s the new album anybody who can figure out the title gets tickets to Season 3 and free Yeezys.”

While T.L.O.P. is scheduled to drop in two days (February 11), a pre-order option on iTunes is still not available. That could be a hint that Kanye will be releasing his new project as a Tidal exclusive like Rihanna did with her recent Anti album. Both Rihanna and Kanye are part owners of Tidal. There is no official confirmation at the moment that T.L.O.P. will arrive via Tidal.
