SIGNS: Tennessee Republican U.S. Rep. Tim Burchett Believes Aliens Have Underwater Bases

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: Rumors

Tennessee Representative Tim Burchett has taken the trending extraterrestrial conversation to the depths of Earth’s oceans.

According to a report from WREG Memphis News Channel 3 (via The Hill), The Republican congressman has openly declared his belief that aliens might be operating secret underwater bases right here on our planet. Burchett’s claims are now making waves in Washington and beyond due to the interesting intersection between religion and science that his beliefs clash on.

During a recent appearance on former Rep. Matt Gaetz’s One America News show, he clearly states that he arrived at this point base on his thought process of the unlimited power of the most high. “I just think travelin’ light years, I think it happens,” Burchett said. Burchett also pondered the unimaginable distances aliens might travel to reach Earth.

“The light from those stars that we see at night left there before the time of Christ,” he added, mixing astronomy and theology in his explanation.

Burchett’s fascination with the unknown isn’t new. Last year in April, following a classified briefing on Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP), he hinted that the U.S. government is deliberately withholding information about these mysterious occurrences.

“I think there’s a cover-up,” Burchett alleged. “We’ve had departments tell us that they have recovery units, but they won’t release full reports. Everything’s covered up.”

The congressman’s interest in aliens gained momentum in the summer of 2023, when whistleblowers came forward during a series of UAP hearings. These insiders alleged that the government has long concealed evidence of advanced crafts of either foreign or extraterrestrial origin.

Burchett took action by requesting the intelligence community’s inspector general investigate these shocking claims. Burchett described one case that had him particularly spooked. “When they tell me something’s moving at hundreds of miles an hour underwater, and our capabilities…and these things, this one was, it was large as a football field underwater,” he said. “And this was a documented case, and…and I have an admiral telling me this stuff.” he said.

Burchett has even led efforts to establish a UAP caucus in the House, joining a bipartisan group of lawmakers demanding greater transparency from the military on all things alien. With tens of millions spent on mysterious investigations, Burchett believes Americans deserve the full story—even if it means unearthing secrets that sound straight out of a sci-fi movie.

Interestingly, Burchett isn’t the first U.S. lawmaker to explore the outer edges of plausibility. One prominent example of recent congressional conspiracy theories involves Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.). In 2018, she speculated about a secretive “space laser” potentially being used to start wildfires in California.

The theory, which linked wildfires to a powerful and shadowy elite, was widely debunked and criticized but highlighted her willingness to amplify far-fetched claims. Her comments about various conspiracy theories, including QAnon, have sparked national debates and raised concerns about the influence of such ideas within government institutions.

Top5 Back In Jail After Toronto Police Execute Search Warrant At His Home

By: Kyle EusticeCategory: News

Canadian rapper Top5, who was released from jail in September 2024, is apparently headed back. According to CP24 Toronto, Top5 was arrested on Friday (January 24) in connection to a recent firearm investigation.

Toronto police said they executed a search warrant in the Enterprise Boulevard and Birchmount Road area, where they discovered several weapons inside his home. He now faces numerous charges, including unauthorized possession of a firearm and possession of a firearm while prohibited.

Top 5 was last arrested in October 2023. Prosecutors allege that Top5 played a key role in orchestrating the murder of 20-year-old student Hashim Omar Hashi. He was initially on the run and evaded capture by fleeing to Los Angeles before being extradited back to Canada to face the charges.

Top5 maintained his innocence, claiming that the accusations against him were false. The trial raised questions about the use of Top5’s public persona and music in the courtroom. Prosecutors referenced his lyrics and social media posts, which often touched on street violence, as evidence to support their claims.

Ultimately, Top5 was released from jail after his charge of first-degree murder was stayed by the Crown in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice following the dismissal of some social media evidence.

After the charges were stayed, Ali shared his prison experiences during an online stream. He claimed to have obtained a knife, cellphones and even a cheeseburger while incarcerated. In 2023, Ali used one of the cellphones to film a music video while in custody at the Maplehurst Correctional Complex in Milton, Ontario. He alleged that he paid $10,000 to acquire the phone.

The incident prompted Ontario’s solicitor general to launch a comprehensive investigation. Although Ali’s charges have been stayed, the Crown retains the ability to reinstate them in the future.

Police are encouraging anyone with information related to the firearm investigation to contact them at 416-808-5300 or to provide tips anonymously through Crime Stoppers.

Akademiks Crashes Out Over Teen Boy “Grooming” Allegations

By: Kyle EusticeCategory: News

Akademiks became a trending Twitter topic on Saturday (January 25) after he was accused of grooming a 15-year-old streamer who goes by NourGxd.

The divisive media personality and Tory Lanez’s alleged manager, WrittenByRay, were recorded making inappropriate sexual comments to the teen boy on a livestream. At one point, the 35-year-old Akademiks asked NourGxd if he would let another person “f###” him, despite the teen’s clear discomfort.

Another clip from the same day found Akademiks engaging with NourGxd during a Fortnite livestream. In the 30-second clip, Akademiks asked, “Yo, if Max said he wanted to try f###### a dude, will you let him f### you?”

Despite NourGxd saying he was “not gay” and was uncomfortable with the conversation, Akademiks continued to needle him about the topic. FaZe Clan member PlaqueBoyMax, a Discord mod for NourGxd, was one of the first to publicly call out Akademiks but eventually decided to distance himself from the controversy.


A video of the interaction started making the rounds and automatically put Akademiks on the defense. During another one of his livestream rants, Akademiks claimed he was simply trying to support his fellow streamers, even though he doesn’t “need” to.

Akademiks also admitted he’d provided financial and emotional support to NourGxd during a rough patch in the teen’s life.

NourGxd responded to the outrage in a call with streamer ImDontai, in which he called Akademiks’ behavior “truly uncomfortable” and “disgusting.”

The teenager also revealed that Akademiks, WrittenByRay and the others on the call in question knew that he was live-streaming at the time, and that they deleted some direct messages to him addressing the situation and trying to downplay it. They also allegedly requested that he delete stream VODs (recordings of the stream).

Of course, Twitter isn’t having it and are celebrating what they hope is the “cancelation” of Akademiks. One person wrote, “Akademiks has no morals. He has shown yall time and time again who he is. That man has spread misinformation, disrespected women, disrespected rappers, disrespected regions, and is all around a horrible person. The universe will deal with him accordingly,” while another said, “Akademiks is angry at other people because he got caught talking sexually to a minor… this man is guilty as f###.”

Rick Ross’ Legal Issues Mount As Georgia Tax Lien Debt Grows Following Trump Inauguration Gig

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: Rumors

Rick Ross is facing some heat from the State of Georgia over an alleged unpaid tax bill.

In Touch reports court documents obtained by the outlet reveal the Georgia Department of Revenue claims Ross owes $64,995.21 in back taxes from 2021. The original amount was $29,043, but interest, penalties, and fees ballooned the total.

Ross has yet to resolve the matter and the state has filed a tax lien listing a Florida address tied to the rapper. The property listed is the one Ross purchased from ex-NBA star Amar’e Stoudemire for $3.5 million in 2021—and he also owns property in Georgia. The timing of the exclusive report reaching the light of day is somewhat messy, considering they follow Rozay’s recent performance at the Crypto Ball in honor of President Trump’s inauguration.

Though the amount Ross was paid for his performance has yet to be disclosed, it’s being speculated that performers including Snoop Dogg and Soulja Boy were paid handsomely. Tickets to the event were reportedly $2,500 for general admission and reached upwards of $100,000 for VIP packages.

Trick Daddy also recently claimed that Nelly made $1.5 million for his performance during the inauguration. Not to mention that the Trump family generated billions of dollars over the weekend following the crypto ball as both the $Trump and newly introduced $Melania meme coins surged to billions in market value.

This apparently isn’t the first time Ross has faced tax issues over properties that he owns. The U.S. Department of the Treasury released a tax lien on the rapper’s property that was first issued in 2012 and 2016. To avoid asset seizure, Ross paid $4,617,370.86 to the IRS. The debt was discharged in 2018. This isn’t the only legal issue Ross has been dealing with lately. He’s also battling a lawsuit from Darris Straughter, a paraplegic man who claims Ross’s 2024 Car & Bike Show in Florida wasn’t wheelchair accessible—despite promises that it would be.

The irony of it all, though, is that Ross recently criticized Trump after droves of people expressed their belief that the country collectively made more money during his presidency compared to Joe Biden’s term.

“I just don’t want nobody to be delusional,” Ross said in his critical remark. “You can’t be a delusional [expletive]. Did he [Donald Trump] have you eating, or was it a nationwide, worldwide pandemic and you [expletive] stole the money?”

EXCLUSIVE: Diddy Seeks To Expose Government’s Secrets With Bold Court Move

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

Sean “Diddy” Combs has been portrayed as a rule-breaker during his time at the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC), but his legal team says the facts tell a different story.

According to documents obtained by AllHipHop, Diddy’s defense argued that the government was using a “materially false narrative” about his jailhouse conduct to justify intrusive surveillance and searches that violated his constitutional rights.

Diddy’s attorneys are pushing for a court-ordered evidentiary hearing to determine the extent of alleged government misconduct, including using privileged communications and defense materials.

“The truth will only be fully revealed if the government’s claims can be tested through cross-examination of witnesses who have actual knowledge of the material facts,” Diddy’s lawyer, Alexandra A.E. Shapiro, wrote.

At the center of the controversy is an October search of his unit, which the government initially claimed was part of a routine sweep to ensure prison security. Diddy’s legal team countered that the search was anything but routine.

“The search of Mr. Combs’s unit…was conducted not for legitimate institutional security reasons, but because [prosecutors] were interested in searching Mr. Combs,” Shapiro said.

Shapiro contends that prosecutors staged the operation to collect evidence tied to Diddy’s defense strategy, a move his lawyer called a blatant violation of attorney-client privilege.

The filing further alleges that the government’s actions extended to monitoring Diddy’s legal communications.

“Investigator-1 admits he listened to Mr. Combs’s calls, including with his counsel, and that all those recordings, including the ones with attorneys, are being furnished to the U.S. Attorney’s Office,” the disgraced mogul’s attorneys stated.

Prosecutors also claim Diddy misused other inmates’ phone access, engaged in unauthorized messaging, and orchestrated a social media campaign with the involvement of his children.

Despite offering a $50 million bail package with strict conditions, including 24/7 surveillance, his release was denied due to concerns about potential witness tampering and his ability to interfere with ongoing investigations​

Despite months of surveillance, the filing notes, “To this day, the BOP has not taken any actions to discipline Mr. Combs for any purported violations of MDC policies.”

Diddy’s attorneys are asking the court to direct the government to cease its alleged violations of his rights, including monitoring his legal notes and communications.

They also want the feds to cough up evidence they believe will expose the full scope of the misconduct, including emails and surveillance footage related to the October search.

With the trial set for May 2025, Diddy’s lawyers are urging the court to act swiftly to address what they describe as “grave violations” of his constitutional rights.

YFN Lucci Set For Prison Release “Any Day Now”—Lil Wayne’s Daughter Won’t Be Waiting

By: Kyle EusticeCategory: News

YFN Lucci has been behind bars since January 2021, charged with multiple offenses, including felony murder, aggravated assault and participation in criminal street gang activity following a fatal shooting the month before.

But according to a tweet from former TMZ reporter Loren Lorosa, the rapper is expected to be released from jail this month.

“YFN LUCCI IS SET TO BE RELEASED FROM PRISON THIS MONTH.. Jan 2025 .. I’ve confirmed the reports,” she wrote. “A source close to the rapper tells me, Lucci will be released ANY DAY NOW. His teams literally checking their phones daily for the call.”

Lorosa added that YFN Lucci will be monitored closely after he’s out. She noted, “He’ll be under set conditions or rules he has to follow at the time of his release (which is standard), but I’m told the conditions aren’t too crazy.. they’re the same conditions that were set forth at the time of his plea.”

YFN Lucci and Reginae Carter, the daughter of Lil Wayne, had an on-and-off relationship that lasted approximately two years, from early 2018 to 2020.

Their relationship faced public scrutiny and challenges, partly due to their age difference (Lucci is about eight years older than Carter) and controversies surrounding Lucci’s lifestyle. They broke up multiple times, with Cater citing issues related to trust and maturity. By mid-2020, the couple appeared to have ended things for good.

And it looks like Carter is at peace with that. During a recent appearance on The Morning Hustle Show, Carter was asked if she would rekindle her romance with Lucci once he’s out and she replied, “Ain’t no spinning the block.”

She did go on to say she’s happy for his children and his family, and that there’s “no bad blood” between them. “But spinning the block and being back together, that’s not going to happen,” she concluded.

Carter, who appeared on the show with her mother, Toya Johnson, is plugging their WEtv show Toya & Reginae. The new season premiered on Friday (January 24).

Will Ferrell Reveals His Unusual Connection To O.J. Simpson Case

By: Mike WinslowCategory: News

Will Ferrell brought his signature humor to an unexpectedly serious setting: the O.J. Simpson trial.

The celebrated comedian and actor revealed on The Graham Norton Show how he and his improv troupe were enlisted to perform skits for the jury during the 1995 trial, which captivated the nation as Simpson faced charges of murdering Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman.

Ferrell described the surreal experience of entertaining the sequestered jurors, who had limited exposure to the outside world over the grueling months-long trial.

“I was doing improv at the Groundlings Theatre in LA at the same time the O.J. Simpson trial was going on,” Ferrell shared with Norton. “The jury was sequestered for a long time and couldn’t go anywhere, so someone came up with the idea of performing our sketch show for them in the court to lighten the mood.”

The Anchorman actor confessed that while it was a rare opportunity, the situation wasn’t exactly comedic gold for the performers.

“It was just us and the jurors,” Will Ferrell said. “They seemed mildly entertained, but it was very bizarre.”

Ferrell and Reese Witherspoon are promoting their upcoming comedy “You’re Cordially Invited,” set to release on January 30. As the pair reflected on their past brushes with the judicial system, they revealed a lighthearted yet meaningful connection between real-life moments and their on-screen personas.

DJ Unk—Best Known For His 2006 Hit “Walk It Out”—Dead At 43

By: Kyle EusticeCategory: News

Anthony Platt—better known by his stage name DJ Unk—has died. On Friday (January 24), Platt’s wife, Sherkita Long-Platt, confirmed his death via Facebook.

“Please respect me and my family,” she wrote. “I just lost my husband and my kids just lost their father. Our life will never be the same. I LOVE YOU ANTHONY FOREVER.”

The Atlanta artist, who was just 43 at the time of his death hailed from Atlanta, Georgia. He was best known for his contributions to the Southern Hip-Hop and snap music scenes during the mid-2000s. He gained widespread fame with his 2006 breakout hit, “Walk It Out,” an anthem that eventually became a dance-floor staple.

The single, from his 2006 debut, Beat’n Down Yo Block!, showcased Unk’s knack for creating infectious hooks and danceable beats. The song’s success propelled him to national prominence, earning chart-topping spots and several remixes featuring artists like André 3000, Jim Jones and Big Boi.

Unk’s follow-up single, “2 Step,” further cemented his reputation after it became another hit that same year. Although DJ Unk’s popularity peaked in the 2000s, his influence on dance music and club culture remains evident. His tracks helped define the snap music era, a sub-genre characterized by its minimalist beats and energetic rhythms.

Beyond music, Unk continued engaging with his community, performing live and using his platform to promote positivity. He also faced health challenges in the early 2010s, including a heart attack, which he overcame and later credited as a turning point in his life. As a result of the cardiac event, he gave up weed and alcohol.

Unk’s legacy lies not only in his contributions to the rap scene but also in his ability to create music that brought people together on the dance floor, inspiring countless DJs and artists in the process.

A representative from his former label Big Oomp Records also confirmed the news on social media.

“It is with a heavy heart and profound sadness that we announce the passing of a true ATL legend, Anthony Platt better known as ‘DJ Unk,’” a statement read. “DJ Unk was not just a legendary DJ, rapper and producer but a true cornerstone of our label and the imprint that he left globally will be cherished forever.”

A cause of death has yet to be revealed. AllHipHop sends our condolences to his family.

Lil Wayne Reveals Significance Behind His Best Rap Verse To Date 

By: London JennnCategory: News

Lil Wayne has revealed the personal significance behind what he considers his best rap verse to date—a moment that cemented his place as a respected lyricist.  

While reflecting on his early career, during an appearance on Maverick Carter’s “Mavericks” show, the New Orleans native pointed to “Block Burner,” his first solo track on the Hot Boys album, as a defining moment.  

According to Lil Wayne, despite not using any profanity in the song, it earned him admiration from New York artists who praised his lyrical skill and authenticity.  

Although he believes his best is yet to come, Wayne said his greatest work so far was on his 1997 song “Block Burner” on the Hot Boys debut album, Get It How U Live!  

“My best verse is going to always be […] my first solo song on the Hot Boys album,” Lil Wayne said of the track he recorded at just 15 years old. “It was a song called ‘Block Burner.’ [I don’t curse] at all on that.” 

He added, “And so when we would go do shows and stuff in New York, like just stuff in New York like even a TV show or something – if they had another New York artist on that, they would always pull me to the side and let me know like, ‘Bro, I respect that you rap like that and don’t cuss.’”

Lil Wayne’s Son Novi Names His Dad’s Best Album

While Lil Wayne believes he recorded his best verse yet, nearly 30 years ago, his son Lil Novi doesn’t hold his father’s early music in the same regard. 

“It’s just not my generation,” he said during an interview last month. “I listen to, like, kind of like his newer music. I don’t really listen to his old stuff. 

 Novi eventually named “the newest Carter,” stating, “that s### was hard.” 

Lil Wayne, however, is his son’s biggest fan, effortlessly rapping every word of Novi’s latest single in his new video. 

Samuel L. Jackson Pushed Leonardo DiCaprio To Say N-Word

By: Mike WinslowCategory: News

Samuel L. Jackson pressured Leonardo DiCaprio to step outside of his comfort zone during the filming of Quentin Tarantino’s 2012 film “Django Unchained” according to Jamie Foxx.

Playing Calvin J. Candie, a despicable plantation owner entrenched in the brutal realities of slavery, DiCaprio initially struggled with the script’s use of racial epithets—a pivotal element of his vile character.

Jackson, alongside co-star Jamie Foxx, confronted DiCaprio over his reluctance during production and encouraged him to fully embody the role, despite his hesitation with using the N-word, which was intrinsic to his character’s power and cruelty.

“Leo had a hard time saying the N-word,” Foxx shared in a Vanity Fair interview reflecting on his career. “We’re doing a read and Leo says, ‘Hey, guys. Cut! I just can’t do this. This is not me.’”

Jackson, known for his candor, cut through the tension with a jolt of perspective. Foxx recalled Jackson telling Leonardo DiCaprio, “‘Say that s###, m###########! It’s just another Tuesday. F### ’em.’”

Jackson’s no-nonsense approach seemed to resonate, pushing DiCaprio to grapple with the historical truth behind the character’s words and actions.

The conversation didn’t end there. Foxx also chimed in with advice, emphasizing the importance of authenticity in portraying such a morally reprehensible character.

“I told Leo, I said, ‘Leo, you know, in slavery days we would never talk to each other so I’m not your friend. I’m not Jamie Foxx. I’m Django,’” Foxx explained. “And I told him, you won’t be able to play that character unless you really understand what slavery is about. It was tough. It was horrific. Ain’t no kikiing with slaves.”

With his co-stars urging him to commit fully to the role, DiCaprio returned to the set the next day transformed. According to Foxx, his demeanor had changed as he channeled Candie’s menacing energy.

“So the next day I see Leo. He walks in, I said, ‘Leo, what’s up? L, what’s up?’ He don’t speak to me. He’s ready. Everybody started digging in,” Foxx recounted.

“Django Unchained,” a revisionist Western, explored themes of vengeance and liberation as Foxx’s title character, Django, a former slave turned bounty hunter, infiltrates Candie’s plantation in a daring attempt to rescue his enslaved wife, Broomhilda.

DiCaprio’s portrayal of Candie is widely regarded as one of his most chilling performances, and Jackson’s no-nonsense approach to acting likely played a role in helping him access the character’s despicable nature.

The film sparked debates upon its release for its unflinching depiction of slavery and liberal use of the N-word.

CoreySSG Released On 6-Figure Bond In Case Over Alleged Kidnapping Of Two Women

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: News

Houston-based social media influencer CoreySSG, whose real name is Corey Pritchett Jr., has been released from jail.

According to Houston Public Media, Pritchett, 25, was released on January 23 after posting a $200,000 bond. He faces two counts of aggravated kidnapping following an incident in November 2024 in which he allegedly abducted two women at gunpoint and left them in a remote area west of Houston. Court records show that a warrant for his arrest was issued shortly after the alleged incident.

Pritchett was initially on the run, fleeing the United States last year in December. Posts on his TikTok and Instagram accounts indicated he had plans to start a new life in Dubai. The FBI confirmed that Pritchett flew to Doha, Qatar, on a one-way ticket before eventually returning to Houston, where he was booked into the Harris County Jail on January 17. During a court appearance on Thursday, a judge denied Pritchett’s request for a reduced bond. KHOU reported that his attorney claimed Pritchett voluntarily returned to the U.S. to face the charges.

Court-imposed bond conditions require Pritchett to wear a GPS monitor and surrender all travel documents, including his passports and visas. He is also prohibited from owning firearms, consuming alcohol or drugs, and having contact with the alleged victims. Attempts to reach Pritchett’s appointed defense attorney for comment were unsuccessful as of Friday.

The two women told police they met Pritchett at a gym in southwest Houston on the day of the alleged incident. According to court records, he offered them a ride home, but his behavior became erratic during the drive. The women claimed Pritchett drove in the opposite direction of their intended destination, reaching speeds of up to 100 miles per hour on Interstate 10. When one of the women began texting on her phone, Pritchett allegedly pointed a gun at her and suggested during a phone call that he had an opportunity to abandon them in a location where no one could hear or find them.

His next court appearance is scheduled on April 9.

Pardison Fontaine Fuels Tension & Turmoil In “Raising Kanan” Season 4

By: Mike WinslowCategory: News

The wait is nearly over for fans of Power Book III: Raising Kanan, as STARZ unveiled a tantalizing first glimpse of Season 4 with newly released photos featuring Pardison Fontaine that promise more danger, betrayal, and power struggles.

The series will return on March 7 and introduce fresh faces to long-standing rivalries.

Among the new images, Tony Danza’s Stefano Marchetti character commands attention, seated in a dimly lit industrial space with a cigar.

The mob boss’s sinister expression exudes quiet dominance, capturing his reputation as a man unafraid to play by his own rules. As Marchetti returns to the chessboard of Raising Kanan, fans can expect his shadow to loom large over this season’s shifting alliances.

Another compelling addition is newcomer Pardison Fontaine as B-Rilla, shown smirking in an orange prison jumpsuit.

With a charisma that leaps off the screen, B-Rilla’s enigmatic grin suggests he may disrupt the balance of power from inside the prison walls, setting off a ripple effect that could send shockwaves through the already fractured Thomas family dynamic.

Joey Bada$$, reprising his role as the calculating Unique, is also prominently featured.

Unique remains one of the show’s most potent characters. His scars carve out reminders of past battles and in the new pictures, Unique’s piercing gaze reflects a man sharpening his resolve and preparing for his next move.

This season promises to delve deeper into his psyche as he plots his return to dominance in South Jamaica, Queens.

Returning series regulars MeKai Curtis (Kanan Stark), Hailey Kilgore (Jukebox), and Aliyah Turner are also spotted in an atmospheric nightclub setting.

Kanan’s transformation into his criminal persona, Jukebox’s battles with loyalty and identity, and the ever-present pressure of external threats will intertwine as Season 4 progresses.

The fourth season appears poised to explore Raq’s unrelenting pursuit of power as she strengthens her criminal empire while Kanan is drawn further into the fray.

As the countdown continues, anticipation is high for Power Book III: Raising Kanan to deliver another unflinching portrayal of loyalty, ambition, and survival in the unforgiving streets of New York City.

If first looks are any indication, Season 4 promises a volatile mix of personal betrayal and high-stakes power plays—perfect fuel for the journey ahead.

Trick Daddy Defends Nelly’s Inauguration Gig With Kodak Black & 6ix9ine Reference

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: News

Trick Daddy has thrown his support behind Nelly, as the Country Grammar rapper continues to face backlash for performing at an event during Donald Trump’s inauguration.

On Friday (January 24), the Florida native appeared on radio broadcast for 103. 5 The Beat Miami and gave his two cents on the controversy.

To make his point, Trick Daddy ended up weaving in a striking metaphor about Kodak Black’s collaboration with 6ix9ine during the New York rapper’s notorious 2018 legal battle following the indictment of the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods.

“A lot of people is upset about artists performing at the inauguration, and you know me, I have an unpopular opinion about that,” Trick Daddy said.

Drawing a parallel to Kodak Black’s past partnership with 6ix9ine, Trick Daddy reminded listeners how the public outcry surrounding that collaboration drowned out how lucrative of an opportunity it was for Kodak as an individual.

“Listen, I remember when Kodak Black did the song with Tekashi 6ix9ine, and everybody was saying, ‘Oh he a rat, he a rat’,” he recalled. “Well, maybe y’all a rat. He’s not my rat.”

Trick Daddy went on to celebrate the payday the St. Louis rapper secured for the gig, bringing the whole statement full-circle by remarking on the bag Kodak got for working with 6ix9ine, as well.

“Nelly did a podcast where he was explaining himself about performing,” he said. “First of all, Nelly, congratulations for that $1.5 million you got for that show. I wish they’d give me $1.5 million. Tekashi gave me $250,000. I would have did the verse for him. It’s not nothing personal when it’s your business.”

He added, “If my worst enemy booked me to do a concert, I’m going to do that concert. If he booked me in a territory where I was beefing or I had what y’all call these days ops, I’m going to do that concert.”

Trick Daddy isn’t the only celebrity who has come to Nelly’s defense following the inauguration. On January 21, comedian/actor Michael Blackson shared an Instagram post featuring behind-the-scenes footage of his experience with Nelly during his performance.

Along with the flicks and clips, Blackson wrote a lengthy caption for the post in which he called for the Black community to work with Trump or else run the risk of sitting around angry for the next four years, an attitude he says he picked up from his personal conversations with Nelly.

Check out the post above to catch Blackson’s full defense of Nelly’s inauguration performance.

Jamie Foxx Breaks Up With White Girlfriend After Revelation: “I’ve Been Cured!”

By: Mike WinslowCategory: News

Jamie Foxx and Alyce Huckstepp have called it quits after nearly two years of dating, according to sources close to the couple.

The Oscar-winning actor and the former fitness instructor had been romantically linked since early 2022, though they kept their relationship largely low-key.

Multiple insiders confirmed the split, stating the pair decided to go their separate ways.

Despite their breakup, sources highlighted Huckstepp’s supportive role in Foxx’s life, especially following his dramatic health scare in April 2023 when he suffered a brain bleed and subsequent stroke.

Jamie Foxx and Huckstepp were last seen together publicly in the fall 2023. In late September, the two shared dinner in Los Angeles, surrounded by an intimate circle.

Just weeks later, on October 30, they were photographed walking along a serene beach in Mexico. Despite their public outings, Huckstepp was notably absent from Foxx’s red-carpet events, preferring to stay behind the scenes.

Even when she was out of the spotlight, Huckstepp accompanied Jamie Foxx to various work-related engagements, including the set of his BetMGM ad in July 2023.

A source at the shoot shared a glimpse of their dynamic, saying, “They seemed cozy. (Foxx) had people around, but they weren’t keeping him distant from the rest of the crew. It was relaxed.”

Foxx, who recently ramped up his professional hustle with live comedy performances and a Netflix special titled What Had Happened Was, didn’t shy away from poking fun at his own love life during a stand-up taping in October.

In a tongue-in-cheek moment, he joked about his dating preferences, declaring: “Sisters, I’m here to tell you—I’ve been cured. I’ve been cured of everything—no more white girls. I’m serious! No more white girls. No more white girls. No more. No more white girls!”

The nature of the split has not been publicly discussed, and representatives for both Foxx and Huckstepp have yet to comment.

50 Cent’s Alleged Sex Tape Leak Left Rick Ross’ Ex Suicidal 

By: London JennnCategory: News

Rick Ross’ ex-girlfriend, Lastonia “Stoni” Leviston, is opening up about experiencing trauma after 50 Cent allegedly leaked a sex tape of her with another man amid his bitter feud with the MMG honcho. 

Leviston, the mother of his eldest child, Toie Roberts, revealed the experience left her feeling suicidal. She addressed the distressing moment in her life during the debut episode of the Netflix series W.A.G.s to Riches, per People.

A post shared by Wags To Riches (@wagstorichestv_)

Reflecting on her first time meeting Rick Ross, Leviston stated, “I don’t even know how that fat boy wooed me off my feet, but he did. I went home with him the first night. I thought I was his Lil’ Kim and he was my Biggie.” 

The fashion entrepreneur continued, addressing the impact the sex tape scandal had on her relationship with Rozay.  

“Rick isn’t so happy about, the sex tape, you know?” she added before explaining how the recording came about. 

“So I was dating this guy a long long time ago after I ended my relationship with Rick Ross,” Leviston noted.  

She claimed her partner at the time was “into videotaping,” adding, “he didn’t even really ask. He would just pull [the camera] out.” 

Leviston reveals that her relationship ended on a sour note at the height of Rick Ross’ beef with 50 Cent. 

“Long story short, my ex, the guy that was in the sex tape, he’s bitter,” she said. “So he actually goes and sells the tape to 50 Cent. And then 50 Cent released it… it’s petty and it still haunts me to this day.” 

50 Cent Filed For Bankruptcy After Leviston Won Her Lawsuit

In 2010, Leviston filed a $15 million lawsuit against 50 Cent for the unauthorized release of the tape. Five years later, a jury ordered 50 Cent to pay Leviston $5 million in damages. Shortly after the verdict, the G-Unit founder filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.  

Ross’ ex, Tia Kemp, recently alleged Leviston received $1.8 million of the $5 million settlement.

Reflecting on the situation, Leviston says she was “I was collateral damage” In Ross’s feud with 50 Cent.  

“In that second my whole life changed,” Leviston said, referencing the tape leaking. “I became suicidal.”

She added, “I didn’t want to live anymore. I felt like I was damaged goods. Like no man would ever love me again. I felt like I had let my kids down tremendously.”

Trump Promises “Everything Will Be Revealed” About MLK, JFK & RFK Assassinations  

By: London JennnCategory: News

President Donald Trump has signed an executive order mandating the declassification and release of remaining files related to the assassinations of Martin Luther King Jr., John F. Kennedy and Robert F. Kennedy. 

The order, signed Thursday (January 23), directs the Director of National Intelligence to present a plan within 15 days for the full release of all JFK assassination records. 

Additionally, officials must review and present a plan within 45 days for the complete release of records related to the RFK and MLK assassinations. 

Trump planned to release the assassination files during his first term but did not fully follow through. He claimed his CIA director, Mike Pompeo, felt “it was not a good time to release them.” 

However, this time, Trump stated that “everything will be revealed” regarding these assassinations.  

The order asserts that continued secrecy “is not consistent with the public interest.” 

Members of the King and Kennedy families have spoken in the wake of the orders.  

Bernice King, daughter of Martin Luther King, Jr., shared a statement on behalf of her family.  

“For us, the assassination of our father is a deeply personal family loss that we have endured over the last 56 years,” the statement reads in part. “We hope to be provided the opportunity to review the files as a family prior to its public release.”   

The King family confirmed they are refraining from giving interviews as they await additional information. 

Meanwhile, JFK’s grandson, Jack Schlossberg, hit back at President Trump’s executive order. 

“The truth is alot sadder than the myth — a tragedy that didn’t need to happen,” he wrote on X (Twitter). “Not part of an inevitable grand scheme. Declassification is using JFK as a political prop, when he’s not here to punch back. There’s nothing heroic about it.” 

Drake Versus UMG: Label Seeks Dismissal Of “Retaliatory” Lawsuit 

By: London JennnCategory: News

Universal Music Group (UMG), is pushing back against Drake’s Texas lawsuit asking the court to toss out his filing. 

The label filed a 144-page motion to dismiss Drake’s petition, denying the rapper’s allegations. The motion argues Drake’s petition lacks sufficient evidence to support his allegation that they artificially boosted Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” as “hearsay” and “not admissible as evidence.” 

UMG claims Drake’s legal actions are “retaliatory” and an “apparent effort to limit the distribution of this diss track.  

Additionally, the music label also argues that rather than addressing his issues with Kendrick Lamar, Drake “has resorted to strategic legal retaliation against UMG and others, in an apparent effort to pressure them to limit the distribution of ‘Not Like Us.’”

Furthermore, UMG is seeking to have Drake cover their legal fees. The label requested a hearing on their motion within 60 days. 

UMG also asked the court to “suspend all discovery related to this matter” until a ruling has been made. 

UMG argues that Drake’s petition should be dismissed because he “did not file [it] in a ‘proper court'” as required by state law. 

The company also claims that Drake has “already filed suit on his potential claims, obviating any need for pre-suit discovery.” 

A hearing on the motion is currently scheduled for January 28, 2025, in Bexar County, Texas. 

Drake is suing UMG, claiming the label approved and promoted a track that falsely portrays him as a pedophile, leading to violence at his Toronto home, including a shooting that injured a security guard.  

UMG denies the allegations, calling the lawsuit an attempt to suppress artistic expression. Meanwhile, Drake’s legal team accuses the label of prioritizing “corporate greed over the safety and well-being of its artists.”
