Bhad Bhabie Bashes Abusive Boyfriend After Reconciliation

Bhad Bhabie called out Le Vaughn, the father of her newborn baby, weeks after accusing him of abusing her. The controversial rapper/internet personality described her boyfriend as a gold digger on Instagram Stories.

“@xgamelv looking for a bbl Latina hoe must be rich and have a house and cars he can use,” she wrote.

Earlier this month, Bhad Bhabie posted evidence of Le Vaughn’s domestic abuse. She released a statement after exposing his violent actions.

“I love that man more than I love myself and it’s honestly really sad,” she wrote. “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. He’s going to get the help he needs. Right now there’s no room for mistakes. And he knows that. Who ever says they are there for me will b supportive of me no matter what I choose to do. Y’all know I give a mf hell but there’s no excuse for that at all what so ever. My point in sharing this wasn’t to attack him, it was for him to see what he does is wrong and too take accountability and make a REAL CHANGE.”

Fans believed Bhad Bhabie was saying she intended to stay with Le Vaughn despite his abuse. She challenged their assertion.

“I wasn’t gonna speak on this but who said I was staying?” she wrote. “What about that post made y’all think I’m staying? Bc I said I love him? Bc I said he’s gonna get help? I’m so confused and apparently so are y’all.”

Bhad Bhabie reconciled Le Vaughn, who denied her abuse allegations. The two were seen kissing on social media and at a Beverly Hills restaurant in recent weeks.

Tory Lanez’s Driver Admits He Didn’t See Who Shot Megan Thee Stallion

California prosecutors contested Tory Lanez’s request for a new trial after he submitted an affidavit from his driver Jauquan Smith, a witness to the 2020 shooting of Megan Thee Stallion. Smith claimed the prosecution didn’t allow him to testify in Lanez’s 2022 trial.

Smith said he saw Megan’s former friend Kelsey Harris holding a gun during an altercation between the two. The driver acknowledged he didn’t see who shot Megan but noted Lanez attempted to disarm Harris.

“Ms. Pete [Megan] and Ms. Harris began fighting,” Smith explained. “I pulled over to stop them. Ms. Pete and Ms. Harris both got out of the vehicle and continued to fight, both verbally and physically. I broke up this fight and was pulling Ms. Pete toward the back of the car. I saw Ms. Harris with a gun in her hand. Mr. Peterson [Lanez] ran from behind Ms. Pete and myself toward Ms. Harris. Mr. Peterson and Ms. Harris began struggling as Mr. Peterson tried to unarm Ms. Harris. I was still pulling Ms. Pete and did not see who shot the weapon. I was not harmed, and in my opinion, Ms. Pete was also fortunate. The whole incident happened so quickly.”

Smith added, “I wanted to present this evidence during Mr. Peterson’s trial but was prevented from doing so as the District Attorney was not ready to cross-examine me, and later they did not call me back due to the holidays and the court schedule. I believe I should have been allowed to present this evidence at trial.”

Lanez, who was found guilty of shooting Megan, cited Smith’s affidavit as evidence warranting a new trial. Prosecutors disputed Lanez’s arguments, mentioning how his former attorney refused to call Smith as a witness in court. The California Attorney General’s Office insisted Smith’s side of the story wasn’t previously unknown evidence.

“Given these circumstances, defense counsel conceded that Smith would not have been a helpful witness because of his bias and the cumulative nature of his proffered testimony,” Deputy Attorney General Michael C. Keller wrote. “Recognizing that an independent eyewitness had placed the gun in the hands of Harris prior to the shooting, defense counsel explained that it would not ‘do anything’ to have appellant’s friend say the same thing.”

Lanez was convicted of assault with a semiautomatic firearm, illegal possession of a firearm and negligent discharge of a gun for shooting the victim in 2022. A judge sentenced him to 10 years in prison in 2023.

Tupac Shakur Family Recruits Jay-Z’s Powerful Lawyer To Investigate Diddy Rumors

Tupac Shakur’s family hired Jay’s lawyer Alex Spiro to explore resurfaced allegations regarding Diddy’s supposed involvement in the late rapper’s 1996 murder. According to TMZ, Tupac’s relatives also enlisted the help of attorney Christopher Clore and a team of investigators.

Diddy’s culpability in Tupac’s murder has been widely speculated for years. The Bad Boy Records founder, whose real name is Sean Combs, faced scrutiny due to his significant role in Tupac’s infamous beef with The Notorious B.I.G.

Duane “Keefe D” Davis, who awaits trial for Tupac’s murder, implicated Diddy in the deadly shooting. Keefe D’s claims received newfound attention in court documents filed by the Clark County District Attorney’s Office in Nevada on July 18.

“[Davis] has asserted publicly that he only told on himself and wasn’t trying to provide evidence against anyone else in his conversations with police,” prosecutors wrote. “However, this statement belies this claim, as he suggested that Sean Combs paid Eric Von Martin a million dollars for the killings as well as offered to set up a surreptitious phone call with Terrence Brown, the driver, who, at the time, was still alive. “

Keefe D originally accused Diddy of ordering a hit on Tupac well over a decade ago, but no charges were ever filed against the Hip-Hop mogul. Diddy denied the allegations.

“Any suggestion of an indictment for Mr. Combs is irresponsible and unfounded,” a source told AllHipHop. “The notion that prosecutors have evidence that Diddy paid Davis is categorically false and defamatory.”

Keefe D, the alleged “shot caller” behind Tupac’s murder, remains in jail after a judge denied him bail in June. His next court hearing is scheduled for August 20. His trial is expected to begin in November.

Diddy is under federal investigation for sex trafficking allegations. Multiple women and producer Lil Rod sued Diddy for sexual assault over the past nine months.

Foolio Murder: Three Suspects Arrested As Police Search For Two Alleged Gunmen

Florida authorities announced three arrests in the Julio Foolio murder case on Monday (July 29). Sean Gathright, Alicia Andrews and Isaiah Chance were apprehended over the weekend in Jacksonville. They were charged with first-degree murder.

Police named two other men, Davion Murphy and Rashad Murphy, as fugitives in the case. Warrants were issued for both suspects.

Foolio, whose real name was Charles Jones, was shot and killed at a Holiday Inn in Tampa on June 23. Three other people were injured in the shooting.

Tampa Police Chief Lee Bercaw identified Gathright, Davion Murphy and Rashad Murphy as the gunmen seen in surveillance footage of the shooting. Foolio’s killers traveled from Jacksonville to Tampa, following him from location to location on the day of his murder.

All five suspects were linked to the ATK and 1200 gangs. They faced life in prison for their roles in Foolio’s murder.

Authorities said ATK’s Yungeen Ace, Foolio’s longtime rival, was not under investigation for the murder. Earlier this month, a masked man claimed he killed Foolio to collect a bounty offered by Ace.

“There was money on his head,” the man said on social media. “I rock with Ace and them boys, ATK. I be in Jacksonville heavy. If you know you know. I did that. I handled that ‘cause Ace had that money on his head. Ace had done put that 10k up, told me to slide. Told me to smack fool ‘cause he got tired of that n#### running his mouth playing all the time. So, what had to be done had to be done.”

Ace celebrated Foolio’s death by releasing a music video for the song “Do It” hours after the murder. Ace wasn’t the only rapper with a brazen reaction to the fatal shooting. Spinabenz and Whoppa Wit Da Choppa dropped a video for their “Foolio Dead” track on July 26.

Burna Boy Shocks Fans With Surprise New Album Announcement 

Burna Boy fans are in for a treat after the Nigerian artist announced he is dropping a new album. 

On Monday morning (July 29) the Afrobeats star stunned fans with the announcement his seventh studio album is set to arrive in just hours. He took to X (Twitter) to share the surprise with his followers. 

“Album dropping 12am,” Burna Boy wrote, without adding any further details.  

His latest single “Higher” could be included on the project. Released last month, the track made Spotify history as the biggest debut solo song by an African artist.  

The album announcement came after Burna Boy was going viral on social media following a concert mishap. A video circulating online shows the self-proclaimed African Giant taking a tumble onstage while performing his global hit “Last Last.” 

Burna Boy attempts to step off the stage towards the crowd but loses his balance while stepping on a piece of stage equipment. However, ever the professional, he kept the mic in hand and barely skipped a beat, continuing to perform as his crew helped him back to his feet. 

Fans playfully roasted Burna Boy over the blunder, with one likening the fall to something out of The Flintstones. 

“Yabba dabba doo ass fall,” they wrote.  

Meanwhile, Burna Boy’s new album will arrive less than a week after he celebrated the five-year anniversary of his critically acclaimed album African Giant. The project earned him his first Grammy in the Best World Music Album category. 

He marked the anniversary with a special concert in London in partnership with YouTube.

Chuck D, Ice-T Praise Snoop Dogg & Flavor Flav For 2024 Olympic Games Roles 

Chuck D and Ice-T are giving fellow Hip-Hop OGs Snoop Dogg and Flavor Flav their flowers for participating in the 2024 Olympic Games. 

On Sunday (July 28), Public Enemy frontman Chuck D praised his fellow group member for keeping up with the U.S. Women’s water polo team, despite being in his sixties.  

“@FlavorFlav actually hanging with The USA Women Olympic Water Polo squad at 65,” Chuck D remarked, “is clearly one of the most amazing athletic events at this 24 Paris Olympics .. he has silenced critics who only hope to get to his age and energy.” 

Flavor Flav is having a blast in Paris, where he is the official hypeman for the U.S. Women’s water polo team. Earlier this year, Flav pledged his support to the team after learning of their financial struggles and hearing many of them work multiple jobs to fund their Olympic dreams.  

He agreed to sponsor the athletes as they attempt to take home a fourth straight Olympic gold medal.  

Meanwhile, Flavor Flav also shared a post from Ice-T paying homage to Snoop Dogg. 

On Monday (July 29), the veteran rapper and actor took to X (Twitter) with one of his “ICE COLD” facts.  

“@SnoopDogg hosting the OLYMPICS is TopTier HipHop Growth,” Ice-T wrote. “You better recognize.” 

The Death Row Records boss is providing coverage for NBC as a special Olympics correspondent.  

Not only is Snoop Dogg on hosting duties at the 2024 Games, but he carried the Olympic torch in the final stretch of its journey across France. Flavor Flav branded the event a “historic day for Hip-Hop.”

Cardi B Claims Donald Trump Toned Down “Racism” To Fool Voters Ahead Of 2024 Election 

Cardi B claimed Donald Trump has always been a racist but has toned down his rhetoric to trick citizens into voting for him in the upcoming Presidential elections. 

The “Wanna Be” hitmaker was appalled after watching a recent speech from the former president. Trump promised to give police officers federal immunity from prosecution, sparking backlash from many online. 

Cardi B was shocked by his words, especially in light of the recent killing of Sonya Massey at the hands of an Illinois Sheriff’s Deputy. She took to X (Twitter) to express her disappointment. 

“AFTER WATCHING SONYA MASSEY GET KILLED IN 4K …..just wow,” Cardi wrote alongside a clip of Trump. “He never changed.” 

When a user challenged Cardi B, asking, “You thought he did?” she replied, “Nope he just tone down his racism and fooled a lot of YALL to endorse and wear his dirty ass hat until it’s crunch time.” 

36-year-old Massey was fatally shot in her home after making a 911 call to report an intruder. The disturbing incident was captured on bodycam footage, leading to public outrage. Sangamon County Sheriff’s Deputy Sean P. Grayson was charged with murder in connection with Massey’s death. 

Cardi B previously called out Candace Owens for claiming that the shooting was not racially motivated. 

“Girl shut up,” she said during a Twitter Spaces chat. “You don’t feel one little bit of empathy, a little bit of sympathy of how this woman died? There was no argument, there was no conflict, there was no raised voice, and she got shot.” 

Cardi B also questioned whether Donald Trump intends to create a dictatorship if re-elected after he urged a crowd to vote for him this time, and they’ll never have to vote again.  

Drake Quotes Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” Reacting To Viral Impersonator 

Drake is poking fun at his battle with Kendrick Lamar, quoting a line from K. Dot’s scathing diss “Not Like Us” to react to an impersonator. 

Music fans are divided over whether the hype around the Drake diss needs to die down, but the OVO founder himself isn’t over it. Over the weekend, Drake shared his reaction to an impersonator rapping along to his song “Hotline Bling.” 

Drake reposted the clip on his Instagram Stories, quoting Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” in the caption. “Sometimes you gotta pop out,” he wrote alongside the video. 

While Drake arguably lost the battle to Kendrick Lamar, he’s still an overwhelming favorite among Team USA basketball players. Several key players revealed he’s still their playlist go-to while preparing for the 2024 Paris Olympic games. However, not one single player opted for Kendrick Lamar.

Meanwhile, Rakim praised both rivals for their battle, claiming Drake and Kendrick Lamar “put a lot of things in perspective.” 

“You know, a lot of people in that position won’t accept no challenge,” the Hip-Hop legend said during a recent interview with Billboard. “Because they got too much to lose. So, it was dope that these brothers put the mainstream success down and said, ‘Yeah, let’s do it.’ 

He continued, “The battle put a lot of things in perspective — because it showed the difference between real hip-hop and mainstream hip-hop. Younger artists now know that there’s a difference. A lot of them didn’t even understand that.” 

Tia Kemp Demands Rick Ross Pay $200K For Son’s College Tuition 

Rick Ross recently celebrated his last child support payment for his eldest son, but his son’s mother, Tia Kemp, is sending the rapper a hefty bill for college tuition. 

On Sunday (July 28), Kemp hopped online to put the rapper on notice. She showed a college tuition bill for their son William Roberts III. 

“I ain’t playing,” she said in a video. “I need you to call your daddy right now, you tell him. You screenshot this right now, that right there,” she added, pointing to a figure of $209,931.58. 

“You tell him that’s what I need right there in my bank account right now. I need that sent over right now,” Tia Kemp continued before telling Rick Ross, “Don’t fly no 20-piece bird over here, I need a quarter-mil bird over here.” 

@wintermarie5

@Rick Ross can you wire that over please thank you 😂😂😂😂😂😂 #tiakemp #tia #fyppppppppppppppppppppppp #fypシ゚viral #goodmorning #afternoon #rickross #hbcu

Last month, the “Champagne Moments” hitmaker celebrated a special Father’s Day.  

“What would you rather celebrate, Father’s Day or the date of your last child support payment?” Ross asked in an Instagram video. “Or, what if your last child support payment was on Father’s Day weekend? That’s what you call divine divinity.” 

However, Tia Kemp learned of his celebrations and wasn’t too pleased.  

“I came over here to cuss a b#### out,” she began. “You stupid silly muthafucka. Who the f### give a f### about your child support payments, b####. And if I want some more, I’ll take my ass over to family court and get some while he going to college.”   

While Kemp said she could afford to pay the tuition fees herself, she demanded he pay for his son’s education. She also implied Ross has multiple secret children and will be paying child support for decades.  

“You got to worry about them eight or nine over there you got,” she added. “You going to be paying child support for [them] ‘tlll you about 70.” 

Kodak Black Claims He Makes $300K Per Show, Offers To Perform At Kids Party For $11K 

Kodak Black is feeling generous, offering his fans a special deal for features, but he can afford it as he claimed he makes $300,000 a show. 

The Pompano Beach, Florida native has amassed a loyal following since breaking into the music industry a decade ago. He’s gained commercial success with a string of successful projects and multi-platinum singles, and according to Kodak Black, he’s reaping the financial rewards. 

Over the weekend, the “Stressed Out” hitmaker hopped on Instagram Live with a deal for his fans. He offered $50,000 features to 10 lucky rising rappers before offering to drop his performance fee to one fan who wants him to perform at their child’s birthday party. 

“Alright, $11,000,” Kodak Black replied to the fan before revealing his standard performance fee. “That’s a f###### great deal. I charge $300,000 for a show. So, when I’m telling you s### like this here, hurry up and jump on it.” 

Elsewhere during the livestream, Kodak Black unsurprisingly voiced his support for Donald Trump. Showing off his giant gold pendant of the former president, he revealed a woman can have anything she wants from him except his Trump chain. 

He also said he would be voting for Trump, who pardoned Black at the end of his presidential term.  

When asked if he was voting for a “Black president or a white one,” Black confirmed he would back the white candidate.  

Last week, Kodak Black released new merch that pays tribute to the assassination attempt against Trump. His Sniper Gang Apparel launched a tee that recreates the viral image of Trump raising his fist at the rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. 

However, Black’s version features Trump transformed into Kodak Black with his skin color and facial tattoos.

Lil Yachty Rejects Reports His Net Worth Is $8M Following Controversial “Hate Me” Lyric 

Lil Yachty fans are asking questions about the rapper’s net worth following a controversial lyric on his latest single. 

Last Friday (July 26), Yachty dropped his collaboration with Dallas newcomer ian, “Hate Me.” The track sees the duo flexing on their haters, with Yachty boasting about his wealth. 

“Know I’m richer than your favorite rapper,” he raps. “If I’m not, then god, kill my momma.” 

The lyric didn’t go down well with some fans, who questioned why Lil Yachty would make such a statement.  

“What possessed him to put this on his mom,” wrote one fan on X (Twitter). Another person did some research, looking for reports of Lil Yachty’s net worth alongside their favorite rappers. They posted screenshots that estimated Playboi Carti to be worth $20 million and Kendrick Lamar $90. Meanwhile, according to their research, Lil Yachty reportedly has a net worth of $8 million. 

“damn he willingly jumped on that crack both feet,” they wrote.

However, Lil Boat says the reports are way off and claims people are too willing to believe what they read online. 

“i made 8 million in my first 8 months of rappin in 2016 on god,” he replied. “yall be letting this internet guide yall. in real life s### is different i’m tellin u.” 

Although he rejected rumors about his net worth, Lil Yachty remained silent over speculation his Concrete Boys collective has cut ties with its first lady, Karrahbooo. Fans noticed the absence of the “Running Late” hitmaker when she failed to pop out with the rest of the Concrete Boys at Broccoli City on Saturday, July 27. 

Karrahbooo also unfollowed Yachty and two other group members and no longer appears in the group’s Instagram bio.  

Machine Gun Kelly’s New Video Sparks Megan Fox Pregnancy Rumors

Megan Fox raised eyebrows in the new music video for Machine Gun Kelly’s song “Lonely Road,” where the actress dons a noticeable baby bump. Released on Friday (July 26), the video features Fox as Machine Gun Kelly’s pregnant partner, evoking rumors about her real-life condition since neither she nor the musician has addressed the speculation.

A source, however, reportedly told US Weekly, Fox is not pregnant and was just playing a role: “Although they have discussed having a baby, this was just for MGK’s music video.”

Paying homage to narrative storytelling, the video, a collaboration with country singer Jelly Roll, sees Fox involved in scenes that blend drama and emotional depth.

The brunette actress is featured prominently with a pronounced bump, including a pivotal moment where MGK kisses her stomach before getting handcuffed by police officers following a bank robbery aimed at solving their financial woes.

The piece of fiction, however, resonates with reality, mirroring the fertility struggles faced publicly by Jelly Roll’s wife Bunnie Xo, who appears in the promo.

Eight months later, the storyline culminates with Fox visiting MGK in prison, cradling their newborn daughter. The infant, credited as Baby Violet Leika, has been identified by her mother, Anna Cejka, who shared the climactic scene on her Instagram Stories, praising the role her child played.

Since posted the video on Instagram, comments and questions have poured in, voicing curiosity about whether Fox’s bump is authentic or a prosthetic accessory for the character she plays.

The Transformers star and mother of three shares her children with ex-husband, Brian Austin Green, while Machine Gun Kelly has a teenage daughter named Casie with a former girlfriend.

Fox and Machine Gun Kelly started their relationship in 2020 and announced their engagement in 2022.

However, Fox revealed their engagement had been called off during her March appearance on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast, leaving fans uncertain about the couple’s current status.

The Game’s Sexual Assault Accuser Files Docs To Force Rapper To Sell His Calabasas Home

Former contestant on VH1’s She Got Game Priscilla Rainey won’t let her foot off The Game’s neck.

Years after suing the rapper for an alleged sexual assault that took place on set and winning a default judgement of more than $7 million, Rainey is coming for his home—again.

According to court documents obtained by AllHipHop, the balance due on the aforementioned judgment is $6,898,721.99. Rainey and her attorney, Janelle M. Dease, are asking a judge to order Game to sell his Calabasas home in order to pay part of the debt. They also want to force Game into a court hearing to present his argument as to why it shouldn’t be seized.

“I further request that the Court set a time and place for hearing and order the Judgment Debtor to show cause why an order for sale of the dwelling should not be made in accordance with this application,” Dease writes. “The records of the Los Angeles County Tax Assessor indicate that there is no current homeowner’s exemption or disabled veteran’s exemption for the dwelling.

“Record title to the dwelling is held in the names of Cash M. Jones, a married man as his sole and separate property, subject to a Final Judgment and Permanent Injunction obtained by Judgment Creditor, deeming title to be held by JTT Holdings as an alter ego of Judgment Debtor. I am informed and believe that the dwelling is not a homestead.”

Rainey and Dease have determined the property is $3,191,375.00.

He added, “I am informed and believe that the fair market value of the property exceeds $3,600,000.” Even if Rainey did collect $3.6 million from the sale, that still only satisfies roughly half of Game’s debt.

The documents are dated July 24, meaning it’s been nearly nine years since Rainey has been pursuing the Game’s money.

Rainey first filed her sexual assault case in August of 2015, seeking $10 million after she claimed he sexually assaulted her during what she thought was a required after-hours date while taping She Got Game.

A jury awarded her roughly $7 million in 2016 after he pulled a no-show in court. The Game claimed he would never pay the debt.

“Don’t be fooled by these accusations or the dollar amount in the headlines cause I put that on my favorite aunties poodle this broad ain’t gettin s###!” he wrote on Instagram in 2016. “Every girl on that show will tell u I never touched this chick or ever desired to be anywhere near her.

“She got kicked off the show & as a result she filed this lame lawsuit which was probably her intentions before the show was ever even started. She was begging for my attention the entire time we shot the show & was given the ultimate Major League Baseball CURVE ball so that upset her & made her lil wee wee hard so she did what all chicks like her do when life gives them no other options…. They sue you!”

An appeals court rejected The Game’s request for a new trial. Rainey sued him again over his refusal to pay the $7 million judgment. She won the second lawsuit in 2023.

Rainey officially served Game the paperwork to possibly seize his home in June. She accused The Game of transferring his home’s deed to Wack 100 to prevent her from seizing it.

Ice Spice Recalls “Hysterically Crying” After Taylor Swift Asked For Collab

Ice Spice recounts crying “hysterically” after Taylor Swift asked her to collaborate on a remix of “Karma.” The rapper, reflecting on the moment in an interview with Rolling Stone, said she was overwhelmed when the “Love Story” singer invited her to feature on the track, which dropped in May 2023.

“I was living in my first apartment in Jersey, and (producer) Riot was there recording me,” Ice Spice said. “I remember my manager called me, and he usually texts, but he called, and he’s like, ‘You ready for this one?’ And I’m thinking it’s going to be some bad news or something.”

To her surprise, her manager delivered unexpected news. “He’s like, ‘Taylor Swift has a record for you to get on from her album.’ I’m playing it cool on the phone. I’m like, ‘Oh, that’s cool. Super cool.’ And then I hang up the phone and I’m hysterically crying,” Ice recounted.

At the time of the call, Ice Spice was in her walk-in closet, grappling with the gravity of the moment. “I’m in my walk-in closet, and I’m like, ‘Bro, this is not real life,'” the “Barbie World” artist recalled. “Riot definitely filmed it. That’ll probably be in a documentary one day.”

Swift, whom Ice Spice regards as her “closest celebrity friend,” praised the rapper’s dedication to her craft. “I love when I meet a new artist who takes a keen interest in not just the music but the music industry and how it works,” Taylor said during the interview. “I’ve seen how our industry tries to convince artists that they’re better off just being creative and making music and letting the labels and the management do the rest.”

Swift added, “Seeing Ice lean into the strategic, financial, and business aspects of her career is really exciting for me. The more artists learn about the inner workings of the music industry, the more power they can have in their creative world.”

Janet Jackson Relives Brother Michael Jackson’s Death: “It’s Deeply Emotional”

Janet Jackson shared some poignant reflections on her late brother Michael Jackson during her current world tour. As the “Got ’til It’s Gone” singer continues her Together Again Tour, she performs their 1995 duet “Scream” with visual tributes to Michael, who tragically passed away in 2009 at age 50.

Jackson opened up to the BBC, sharing how revisiting the emotional memories of creating the track brings back a whirlwind of feelings.

“‘Listening to him every night, seeing him, remembering us,’ is deeply emotional,” she said.

Janet co-wrote “Scream” with Michael in his New York apartment, and performing it now reignites memories of their bond.

“I relive that whole journey, listening to him sing it and remembering what he was going through at that time. And just me being his little sister, always by his side, and being that support system. That’s always been my role.”

Originally featured on Michael’s 1995 album, HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I, the song also appeared on Janet’s 2009 compilation album “Number Ones.”

“Scream” served as a retort to the intense media scrutiny Michael faced in the mid-90s, addressing rumors about his eccentric behavior, including sleeping in an oxygen chamber and owning a chimpanzee named Bubbles.

During the 1990s, Michael’s life was mired in controversies, including allegations of inappropriate conduct with a young boy in 1993, which he settled out of court. In 2005, similar claims led to a trial where he was acquitted, though public suspicions lingered even after his death.

Janet’s tour is scheduled to hit the U.K. in September, with performances lined up in London, Birmingham and Manchester. In October, she is slated to perform in Glasgow, continuing to honor her brother’s legacy on stage.

Despite the challenges of revisiting such a personal song, Jackson remains steadfast, using her artistry to keep Michael’s memory alive.

“‘Doing this every night keeps his spirit with me and connects me with fans around the world. It’s truly a shared experience,'” Jackson conveyed to her audience, underscoring the enduring impact of her brother’s legacy.

EXCLUSIVE: 6ix9ine Ordered To Pay Big Bucks Over “Stoopid” Lawsuit Loss

Rapper 6ix9ine will have more financial difficulties following a copyright infringement case related to his song “Stoopid.”

The United States District Court ruled against 6ix9ine in a lawsuit by Seth Gordon over his song “Stoopid” for using a nine-second radio drop at the beginning of the song without authorization.

Despite Gordon’s copyright registration for the musical composition “Yung Gordon Intro,” 6ix9ine included the drop in his song without seeking permission from Gordon.

This unauthorized use of Gordon’s creative work led to a legal dispute that ultimately resulted in a default judgment against 6ix9ine.

Because the Brooklyn rapper refused to respond to the lawsuit in time to defend himself in the case, the court issued a default judgment against him, holding him accountable for copyright infringement.

The court’s ruling mandates that 6ix9ine must now turn over earnings generated from his album Dummy Boy, which features the song “Stoopid,” and the profits from the single itself.

The court determined that 6ix9ine must pay damages to Gordon, calculated as 1/13th of the profits from the album, attributed to the unauthorized use of the radio drop in the song, amounting to $61,538.46.

Additionally, he is required to cover the legal expenses incurred by Seth Gordon during the litigation process, including the attorney’s fees associated with the case, which amount to almost another $12,000.

The financial obligation significantly burdens 6ix9ine’s already contentious legal situation.

Last week, 6ix9ine’s custom Bentley and Lamborghini were sold for over $260,000 at a government auction to cover a bill to the IRS.

De La Soul’s “Oodles Of O’s” Pop-Up Donut Shop Gets Q-Tip “Out The House”

De La Soul‘s Posdnuos and Maseo were back in New York City, where they held an “Oodles of O’s” pop-up donut shop event on Friday (July 26) at Cafe Joah.

Common, Questlove, Statik Selektah and an elusive Q-Tip of A Tribe Called Quest were among the many special guests who showed up to the one-day only soirée. Hundreds of people lined up for a chance to get their albums signed and meet two of the men behind the iconic Hip-Hop trio.

They were also able to try several specialty donuts, including “The Dove” (named after the late, great Dave Jolicoeur also known as Trugoy the Dove), “The Twizness,” “The Bear Cinnamon” and “The O.”

On Saturday (July 27), De La Soul posted several Instagram photos of the event. In one of them, Questlove commented on Q-Tip’s surprising appearance, writing, “Dad Came Out The House!” J Rocc, meanwhile, called for a pop-up donut shop in Los Angeles and DJ Spinna called it “fun and legendary times.”

Of course, the event’s name was taken from the 1991 De La Soul is Dead track “Oodles of O’s.”

As a Pix 11 News reporter explained in the clip, “It only took three decades for the inspiration for Oodles of O’s to become a reality. Posdnuos and Maseo welcomed fellow Hip-Hop pioneers Common and Questlove to be part of the De La donut atmosphere in the East Village Friday, filming the first-ever video for ‘Oodles of O’s,” which was the nostalgic backdrop for their one-day only pop-up shop.”

Maseo noted it was a “somber” moment for them due to Trugoy the Dove—who died suddenly in February 2023—not being there. He likened it to “losing a limb.” Nonetheless, Pos said he felt his spirit.

Both Q-Tip and De La Soul were integral to the Native Tongues movement, a collective of Hip-Hop artists that blossomed in the late 1980s and early ’90s. Known for its Afrocentric lyrics, positive messages and eclectic sampling, it boasted influential members like A Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul, Queen Latifah, Monie Love, Black Sheep and the Jungle Brothers, among others.

Q-Tip has collaborated with De La Soul on multiple tracks, including another De La Soul is Dead song, “A Roller Skating Jam Named ‘Saturdays.” Both acts have influenced each other’s work and supported each other throughout their careers.
