I would also like to take the time to let people around the world know that this pedestal that I have been placed upon I do not take it for granted but I need people to understand that I am only human and I make mistakes just like anyone else. In spite of this situation I will continue to strive to be the best parent I can be. Thanks RHQ!!

It look’s like Tyga is ready to make up with Nicki Minaj & Drake. Things had been going sour for a while, and Tyga admitted to not being on good terms with the Young Money/Cash Money label. Earlier this year Nicki Minaj had to clear up the rumor about whether or not Tyga was supposed to appear on “Truffle Butter,” which at the time was the No. 1 urban and rhythmic song in the U.S. Tyga had been ranting all over the place talking about Nicki and Drake were fake and he got removed from “Truffle Butter” when apparently he was NEVER supposed to be on the song. We hadn’t heard much about their relationship lately, but apparently he wants that old thing back as he recently followed Drake and Nicki on Instagram.

Republican Presidential Candidate Ben Carson Praises Kanye West (VIDEO)

(AllHipHop News) Remember how rap stars like Jay Z and Young Jeezy shouted out Barack Obama during the 2008 presidential campaign?

“As soon as I heard [Ben] Carson speak, I tried for three weeks to get on the phone with him. I was like this is the most brilliant guy,” said Kanye during an interview with Vanity Fair.

Carson appeared on ABC’s This Week on Sunday. Guest moderator Martha Raddatz asked him about Kanye’s comments.

“I did have an opportunity to talk with him. I was extremely impressed with his business acumen. He knows a lot about business,” stated Carson. “I talked to him about the possibility of maybe himself and some of the other people in pop culture doing some music that might be uplifting, that might give young women a sense of their value and young men a sense of responsibility. I think it could be a tremendous thing in our society.”

West made headlines when he told the audience at the 2015 MTV Video Music Awards he is running for president in 2020. The public will have to wait and see if the “Gold Digger” rhymer really jumps in the race in five years, but Carson did not seem opposed to the idea of Kanye running for the highest office in the land.

“I’m certainly willing to give him a chance,” added Carson.

It’s not clear if Kanye would run as a Republican or a Democrat. While he has had very nice things to say about Dr. Carson, he has also been seen in a picture with Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton. In addition, Ye is reportedly scheduled to perform at a Democratic National Committee event in San Francisco next month.

Kanye also told Vanity Fair, “The idea of this separation and this gladiator battle takes away from the main focus that the world needs help and the world needs all the people in a position of power or influence to come together.”

The Game & Ray J’s Manager Tries To Expose Fetty Wap As Fake?

Sometimes it’s best not to share every thought that comes through your mind on social media. Case in point, Wack 100’s attempt to “expose” Fetty Wap. The manager for stars like The Game and Ray J posted a pic on Instagram claiming the “Trap Queen” hit maker was faking about his missing eye.

“Fetty Wap is a fake… I knew I wasn’t tripping but one day it’s his left eye missing. The next day it’s his right eye missing,” wrote Wack.

See the problem with Wack’s theory is that it’s most likely one picture was flipped while the other one wasn’t. What do you think? See Wack 100’s post below and tell us your opinion.

Young Thug Is Not Feeling the Game’s Comments on Breakfast Club; Rappers Feud on Instagram

The Game has recently stated that he doesn’t play any games on social media, and now his statement is being put to the test. Recently, The Game appeared on Breakfast Club to promote the his upcoming album The Documentary 2. On the show, the former G-Unit rapper responded to what seemed to be a question regarding younger rappers, and eventually said something that Young Thug didn’t like:

“Cause they’re disrespectful. And they’ll be talking crazy at you with a dress on…Sometimes I put on jeans, and…some sneakers and a crewneck, and I feel like I’m not appropriate, you know what I’m saying?, he said later in the interview. “Do I need a leotard? I don’t know what it is these days, man.”

This afternoon, Young Thug responded to the comments via Instagram with anger, stating that the game wasn’t “really about that action.”

https://instagram.com/p/8Jx4NFxz6e/

To follow up with his diss,  the Atlanta rapper then uploaded a video of The Game apologizing to him.

https://instagram.com/p/8J4DyXRz2O/

Game followed up by posting a meme disrespecting Thugga.

https://instagram.com/p/8J3G0mGolM/

and then Thug replied with a very odd response, posting memes with The Game’s face over a dude in briefs.

The two rappers were beefing earlier this year, when The Game told Young Thug not to disrespect Lil Wayne in California. What started to be an online beef soon began to escalate after both rappers started to send out threats. However, The Game apologized to Thugga before anything really popped off.
