Among the snaps the multi-hyphenate artist shared from her trip was a stunning set of images showcasing a gold number from FWRD X REVOLVE.  

“Oh la la,” she wrote before revealing dress “got me feeling myself tonight… Merci.” However, it was the provocative phrase written in French that raised eyebrows. “Land like a plane on my back if you can’t hold it,” read the caption, per Google Translate.

Teyana Taylor will reportedly receive a seven-figure payout in her divorce, according to documents obtained by The Jasmine Brand. The ruling also revealed the former couple divided their shared estate with Taylor keeping four martial properties, estimated to be valued at over $10 million.

Diddy Lost All Remaining Support By Deleting Cassie Apology Video Stephen A. Smith Says

By: London JennnCategory: News

Stephen A. Smith unleashed on Diddy in a furious rant, calling him out for deleting his apology video to Cassie Ventura. 

The fallen mogul recently scrubbed his Instagram account, deleting everything on his page, including the video apologizing to Cassie after footage surfaced of him brutally beating her in a hotel hallway. 

The move was highly criticized, and although Diddy’s reps reportedly maintain his apology was sincere, the damage was already done.  

Stephen A. Smith felt compelled to address the topic on the latest episode of his podcast. He blasted Diddy, branding his actions “foolish” and questioned his sincerity.   

“If you had a million photos, if you had a million videos, and you decided to delete 999,999, that’s the one you should’ve kept up—if you’re sincere,” the sports commentator declared. “And I know, that you’ve been taking a lot of hits, and there’s been shrapnels of criticism all over the place aimed in your direction. Not that it wasn’t deserved.” 

Meanwhile, back in May, Stephen A. Smith said Diddy’s career “as we know it,” is over. “It’s over in the worst possible way,” he added. “One of the worst possible ways you can imagine.” 

Nonetheless, Smith believes Diddy’s latest actions have caused even more damage. He also questioned why Diddy would remove his apology if he expected people to believe him. 

“Delete everything else; not that,” Smith continued. “Don’t you want people to know that you were contrite? That you were incredibly sorry? That you have profound regret for the egregious actions that you were caught on camera committing?” 

He concluded, “By deleting the video, you throw all of that out the window—the possibility of the very few people that would ever believe that really having a reason to continue to believe you.” 

Azealia Banks Trashes Ice Spice Over “Y2K” Aesthetic: “Re-Do This” 

By: London JennnCategory: News

Ice Spice recently unveiled an alternate album cover for her upcoming Y2K album after the first received backlash, but according to Azealia Banks, she needs to scrap the entire aesthetic and start over.  

The outspoken artist said that while she loves the Bronx native, she hasn’t grasped the Y2K look. Moreover, Banks claims Ice Spice’s entire vision for the project is in direct opposition to the “Y2K” trend. 

On Tuesday (June 25), Banks took to her Instagram Story with a message for Ice Spice.  

“Somebody needs to tell @icespice Absolutely nothing about this aesthetically, performance wise, production wise is Y2K at all,” Banks began. “This is like VIM early Nicki Minaj pack weave s###.” 

Furthermore, Azealia Banks instructed, “We need a new hair color and a new facial expression,” comparing Ice Spice to“early Nicki Minaj pack weave s###.”   

After advising her to “drop” the artwork’s creator, David LaChapelle, and “re do this,” Banks concluded, “Big butts and bbl bodies are the [ANTITHESIS] OF Y2K.”

She followed up with several examples of artists who embody the trend. “This is Y2K,” she wrote alongside images of Aaliyah, TLC, Jennifer Lopez and others.  

Despite Azealia Banks’ criticism, Ice Spice isn’t likely to ditch LaChapelle any time soon. She shared a photo of them shortly after revealing the album cover.  

“David LaChapelle is #Y2K! soooo sweet + legendary he didn’t even charge me c## he f#### wit a real b####,” she shared.“Thank U for all the incredible art you’ve put out through the years this cover means everything to me & yes Y2K was placed on the trash can on purpose can u guess why?” 

Chloe Bailey Fires Back At Critics Claiming She’s Too “Goofy & Nerdy” To Be Sexy 

By: London JennnCategory: News

Chloe Bailey is calling out critics who refuse to believe she is capable of being both goofy and sexy simultaneously. 

Although the R&B singer is confident in her body and owns her sexuality, her detractors say it’s not genuine. Bailey recently addressed the naysayers during an Instagram Live chat, explaining that, like many women, she’s a balanced individual with multiple sides to her. 

She specifically responded to the claim that “Her sexy act ain’t believable because she’s goofy and nerdy.” Bailey questioned. “Why can’t I be both?” 

She continued, “It’s not an act, honey. But not everybody will have access to that. Women can be both. Women can be multi-faceted.” 

Joking about the contrast between her public and private personas, Bailey sang, “Lady in the streets but a freak in the sheets.” 

Ultimately, Bailey says her music, which she described as her “diary,” epitomizes who she is.  “That’s where you’ll see a part of me y’all don’t have access to,” she explained. “It might be surprising.”

Meanwhile, Chloe Bailey recently revealed she overcame her fears to star in The Exorcism, alongside Russell Crowe in the remake of William Friedkin’s iconic 1973 horror The Exorcist. 

“I stay away from anything frightening – and yet look where I’ve ended up!” she told inews last week. While the self-confessed “scaredy cat” has a fear of the dark and has “never watched a horror film in my life,” she enthusiastically accepted the script.  

JT Opens Up About Ego-Fueled Clash with Yung Miami: “Now It’s Funny To Us” 

By: London JennnCategory: News

JT is opening up about her relationship with her former City Girls groupmate Yung Miami, revealing that they’ve moved on since their public spat went viral earlier this year. 

The City Girls may have parted ways as a group but JT says the pair remain close and can now laugh over what happened. During a recent interview with Keke Palmer, JT explained that she was “hurt” by how things played out.  

“I did not want that to happen,” she confessed. “When you get to the point of ego…it gets there. You forget to express yourself in a private setting, or you forget to talk like adults.” 

She added, “It happened and it was stupid, and it’s done. It’s over with and now it’s funny to both of us. It’s hilarious to both of us. Now, it’s just a funny thing in time to us.” 

While neither JT nor Yung Miami have discussed what led to their falling out, the “Alter Ego” hitmaker admitted they both made mistakes. 

“She should be able to tell her side or how she feel,” JT explained. “Because we both were dead ass wrong. It wasn’t no right person in that situation, and I feel like that’s just something that we should talk about as adults.” 

Yung Miami recently discussed why she and JT parted ways as a group, explaining that the lack of commercial success for their RAW album was a contributing factor.  

“When we get together as a group, it just wasn’t connecting,” Miami told Complex. “It just wasn’t working no more. So I think we both was at a point where we were just like, ‘We probably should just do our own s###.’”

Meanwhile, it appears JT has new music on the horizon, teasing a collab with Jeezy.

House Of Pain’s Danny Boy Mourns Crazy Town Rapper Shifty Following His Reported Overdose

By: Kyle EusticeCategory: News

Crazy Town rapper Shifty Shellshock (real name Seth Binzer) was found dead in his Los Angeles home on Monday (June 24). He was 49. While no cause of death has been confirmed, friends and family are suggesting it was a drug overdose. Shifty had long suffered from addiction issues and was very open about his struggles throughout his career.

Hours after the news broke, House of Pain rapper Danny Boy shared a heartfelt Instagram post mourning Shifty’s death. He wrote, “It breaks my heart that you’re gone. We both grew up running wild in those Hollywood streets. Those times were among the best and also the worst times of my life. Looking at this photo, it’s clear that we were both as high as helicopters. That’s just how it was back then. The ’90s, for us all, were wild! Filled with crazy nights, hanging out with crazy people at Crazy Girls in that Crazytown.

“I was truly rooting for you and had always hoped you would find the recovery that a handful of us found from the awful disease of addiction. But in the end this thing looks like it got you. You’re free now, but you will be missed. My heartfelt condolences to your family and friends. Godspeed, Shifty. ‘Nothing gold can stay.'”

Shifty’s Crazy Town collaborator, Bret “Epic” Mazur, also shared an emotional tribute to the L.A. native. The two enjoyed enormous success in the early 2000s after the Crazy Town single “Butterfly” blew up in 2001.

“It is with profound sadness and heavy hearts that we have learned the passing of our dear friend and brother, Seth Binzer,” Mazur wrote. “As the other half of Crazy Town, Seth’s incredible talent and larger-than-life personality left an indelible mark on all who knew him and on the music we created together.”

As Mazur continued, he touched on Shifty’s substance abuse issues, again hinting at an overdose as the cause of death.

“Seth struggled with the challenges of maintaining sobriety throughout his life, a battle that he continuously fought privately and publicly,” he added. “Despite the hardships, he brought immense joy and energy into the lives of those around him. I wish with all my heart that his story could have ended differently, but we find solace in the hope that Seth has finally found the peace he was searching for so desperately all these years.

“Our Crazy Town family and I treasure the core memories from our younger years, the highs and lows, the laughter and the lessons and each moment contributed to who we are today. Seth’s journey, marked by struggle, was also filled with moments of incredible creativity and love.”

Mazur also brought up his own journey to sobriety, which he’s been on for nearly two decades. He concluded, “I want to take a quick moment to stress the importance of sobriety. For nearly 18 years, I have walked a sober path, and I urge anyone struggling to seek help and support, from myself or someone you trust. There is always hope, and a chance for a better tomorrow. We will miss Seth more than words can express. His spirit will live on in the music we made and in the hearts of those who loved him. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family during this incredibly difficult time. Rest in peace, Seth. You will always be remembered and cherished. With love and sorrow….God speed…ya’ boy.”

Shifty encountered many challenges over the last couple of decades. In 2012, he was arrested for domestic abuse and cocaine possession. In the same year, he was also taken to hospital after losing consciousness. He fell into a coma before recovering.

In 2022, he was arrested for driving under the influence and thrown off a Nu Metal tour last year after a gig in South Carolina ended in a bloody on-camera fight with his bandmate, Bobby Reeves. The duo had reportedly since made up and Crazy Town played gigs with Shifty as recently as May. Shifty is survived by his three children, Halo, Gage and Phoenix.

Lil Durk Baits LeBron & Bronny James To Come To Chicago Amid Infidelity Rumors

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: Rumors

Lil Durk appears to be prioritizing his recruitment efforts to attract LeBron James and his son to the Chicago Bulls over clearing his name in an infidelity rumor pinning a love child on him.

In case you missed it, Lil Durk is currently facing allegations he was unfaithful to his longtime partner, India Royale, and subsequently fathered a child outside of their relationship.

However, Durk doesn’t appear to be too vexed by the allegations because he’s currently locked in on his attempts to bring the NBA champion and Lakers’ star player to Chi-Town. In a post he shared to his Instagram Story in the direct aftermath of the social media speculation, Lil Durk appears to bribe LeBron with a bag to bring his talents to Chicago.

“You and bronny come to Chicago bulls,” Lil Durk wrote in the DM he sent to James. “shid i’ll pay you if I got to.” Lil Durk added, “Idx if I got to go half @chicagobulls it’s time lol.”

However, in the midst of Lil Durk doing his best Rich Paul impression, the internet was going wild. Even though rumors that Destini Phillip could be the mother of one of Lil Durk’s children has been floating around since as early as 2022, after a post went viral of Philip and her daughter, the tea on the situation appeared to be cold until recently.

@nayskiabrat

Oop #lildurk what in the world👀👀 DURK NEW BM FINEEE👅🤣 #india #destiny #like #comemnt #share #like #fyp #foryoupage #foryou #mustwatch #mustsee #viral #viralvideos #views #viewers #gossip #explorer #explore #ep #explorepage #crazy #instagram #tiktok #reels #wow #idgnf #haha #comedy #nayskidabrat #watch

♬ original sound – NayskiiDaBrat –

It all appears to have spilled over after a user on Twitter (X) shared a PDA video of Lil Durk and India Royale insinuating they were relationship goals. From there, a number of users reacted to the post, sharing their disapproval of the relationship and even alluding to the idea that Lil Durk was unfaithful to her and had a baby with another woman.

“I just be looking at them in disbelief because the entire world know he had a baby on you,” one person wrote. “That’s insane. I no longer see genuine pure love. This a facade it’s cute though.”

The jab appears to have landed and agitated India Royale, who then opted to throw her own counter haymaker blow in a rebuttal reply within the same tweet thread in which she seemingly references the post of Phillips and her daughter.

“The whole entire world doesn’t know a thing because it never happened,” she said. “People told her baby looked like mine so she joked about it. & Since it gave her clout she ran with it and y’all dusty ass believed her.”

A couple days after India Royale’s post, Phillip shared a tweet of her own and wound up fanning the flames of the scalding hot rumor.

“I was really trying my hardest to enjoy my vacation but yall bring this up every 3 months I can’t go another year on this topic I’ve spent the last 4 years of being attacked because I chose not to post my bd and the gag is I probably never will it’s not yall business,” she wrote in the tweet.

Lil Durk also appears to have nonchalantly swatted the validity of rumor down in a post he shared to his Instagram Story captioned with the message, “Can’t believe the rumors just go off facts.”

Kehlani Weighs In On Her Ex YG’s Relationship With Saweetie

By: Justin IveyCategory: News

Kehlani explained why she has no problem with her ex-boyfriend YG dating Saweetie in an interview with Hot 97’s Nessa. The Atlantic Records artist praised the couple in response to being described as a cool ex.

“I’m a lesbian, so why would I care about my male [exes]?” she said. “I also don’t really care what any of my exes doing: male, female, anything. My goal is [for] everybody to be happy. Even when I’m with someone, if we decide that we’re not mutually happy, we really shouldn’t be together and we should go be with people who make us happy. That’s what I want.”

Kehlani revealed she already gave a private stamp of approval to YG’s latest relationship. She had nothing but nice things to say about Saweetie, who worked with the singer on the “ICY GIRL” remix.

“I love Saweetie!” Kehlani said. “I think she’s so cute and so fun. We have a song together. We hang out. She’s cool. And they make so much sense. Knowing them both, I’m like you know what, I really like this. I’ve told [YG] I like it.”

Kehlani dropped her new album CRASH on June 21. Before its release, she claimed her political views affected the project.

“One day I’ll tell you about how because of my political stance I couldn’t get any features,” Kehlani said. “But I guess I’ll save that for an interview. ‘Cause everybody fronted on me. Every single person was like, ‘Yeah,’ and then just ghosted me or was like, ‘Nah.’”

Kehlani staunchly supported Palestinians amid Israel’s war on Gaza. She raised over $555,000 for Palestine, the Congo and Sudan with merch for her “Next 2 U” single.

Quando Rondo Accepts Plea Deal In Federal Drug Case

By: Justin IveyCategory: News

Quando Rondo agreed to a plea deal in one of his criminal cases. According to WJCL, prosecutors informed a Georgia court they worked out a deal in the rapper’s federal drug case on Tuesday (June 25).

The Atlantic Records artist, whose real name is Tyquian Bowman, was arrested on federal drug charges in December 2023. He was charged with conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute controlled substances.

Prosecutors claimed Quando Rondo was involved in a drug trafficking conspiracy. He was one of multiple defendants indicted for allegedly conspiring to distribute cocaine, fentanyl, marijuana and methamphetamine.

“The indictment … alleges that the defendants conspired starting at least as early as January 2021 to possess and distribute illegal drugs including methamphetamine, cocaine, fentanyl and marijuana,” the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Georgia Jill E. Steinberg said. “A conviction on the conspiracy charge carries a statutory sentence of up to 20 years in prison, along with substantial fines and penalties, followed by a period of supervised release upon completion of any prison term. There is no parole in the federal system.”

The FBI apprehended Quando Rondo while he was out on bond for state-level drug and gang charges. He was previously indicted for conspiracy to violate Georgia’s controlled substances act, participating in criminal activity in association with a street gang and use of communication facility in commission of a felony involving controlled substances in June 2023.

Details of Quando Rondo’s deal with federal prosecutors were not disclosed. He awaited a hearing to officially enter his plea.

Tupac Shakur Murder Trial: Judge Suspicious Of Wack 100 Trying To Pay Keefe D’s Bail

By: Justin IveyCategory: News

Duane “Keefe D” Davis remained in jail due to questions regarding his bail in the Tupac Shakur murder case. Judge Carli Kierny refused to release Davis after hearing from Wack 100, who posted bail for Tupac’s alleged killer, and others in court on Tuesday (June 25).

Wack 100, whose real name is Cash Jones, posted 15 percent of Davis’ $750,000 bail. The controversial manager paid $112,500 to secure the help of a bail bondsman, who would cover the rest of the amount.

Nevada prosecutors suggested Wack 100 was acting as a middleman. They also believed he only paid Davis’ bond to secure interviews for a potential TV series.

The defense failed to assuage the judge’s concerns about the source of the money. Wack 100 claimed he provided his bank records and denied orchestrating any business deal with Davis. Judge Kierny said she would review Wack 100’s documents, but she was convinced he expected something in return for posting bail.

“I don’t really see where the actual $112,500 came from with what’s been provided,” she said. “I also don’t find the defense has met the burden … to show that the bail is not connected to Mr. Davis ultimately talking about Mr. Shakur’s murder and any evidence to contrary is not credible.”

Wack 100 admitted he wanted to interview Davis but insisted it would only be done once the trial was complete. Wack 100 thought Davis was innocent.

“It would have to be [after the trial],” Wack 100 said. “It couldn’t go the other way. It couldn’t go the other way because if he’s guilty … he’s gonna be looked upon a certain way. If he’s innocent as I think he is and I know him to be understanding the case, then he’ll be looked at a total different way.”

Tupac was shot and killed in 1996. More than 25 years later, Davis was arrested for the murder.

Davis pleaded not guilty to murder. His trial is scheduled to begin in November.

It adds a playful and dynamic element to the overall presentation, making it visually stunning and highly entertaining. The visuals perfectly complement the energy of the song and bring the whole experience to life.

Q: What do you hope listeners take away from “Uh Uh Uh”?

Did Beyoncé Allow Kendrick Lamar To Diss Drake On 2023’s “America Has A Problem?”

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: Rumors

Kendrick Lamar fans continue to decode his previous releases in search of Drake disses and, as a result, Beyoncé has been dragged into the saga.

Even though Beyoncé released RENAISSANCE in July 2022, the album cut “America Has A Problem” is gaining a renewed sense of popularity after listeners appear to have discovered yet another tongue-lashing Kendrick Lamar unleashed on Drake.

To be clear, it’s not the original version of the song that was released with the album, but the remix that was released as a single in May 2023 featuring Kendrick’s verse. There’s been a wide consensus that Metro Boomin and Future’s “Like That” was the stone that shattered the glass barrier behind which Drake and Kendrick’s rap beef laid dormant for years. Fans now think the tone of the West Coast MC’s verse on “America Has A Problem” offers a challenging counter angle on the perspective of how deep this feud actually runs.

The perceived diss itself even has multiple layers to it, as Kendrick starts off by seemingly warning both Drake and the music industry that he’s ready and willing to go on a lyrical and figurative kill streak if provoked.

“Geeked up, choosy love,” he raps. “Well, they chose violence/Universal, please don’t play possum I’m a businеss man doin’ as follows.”

The subliminal jabs appear to get more direct and blatant in their use to illustrate how easily Kendrick could deal a knockout blow —such as “Not Like Us”—in a real rap beef against Drake.

“Truthfully, I be lyin’ in my rap song,” he continues. “‘Cause I always fail to mention I’d slap homiе/His career didn’t come with no life insurance/Hope his day one fans got some facts on him.”

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by AllHipHop (@allhiphopcom)

As the record strarted trending on social media once again, users almost immediately began speculating, whether Beyoncé was aware Kendrick dissed Drake in the song.

”Beyoncé let Kendrick Lamar cuss Drake TF out on America has a problem remix,” one user on Twitter (X) wrote, while another said, “All of this beef is because Beyoncé hates Drake. She sent Kendrick a hit.”

Of course, this isn’t the only instance of fans going back and reclassifying songs from Kendrick’s previous releases as being possible Drake diss records and or subliminal messages.

In fact, many users have deduced that the front half of Kendrick‘s set from his Juneteenth concert was purely intended to solely diss Drake . From opening his performance with “euphoria” to following up with “DNA” and “Element” suggested at least some—if not all—of the pair of aforementioned records were dedicated to showcasing Kendrick’s hatred for Drake.

Ari Fletcher warned Moneybagg Yo after he hinted at trouble in their relationship on X (formerly known as Twitter). Fletcher believed her boo was taking a jab at her via social media on Monday night (June 24).

“Watch out for ppl in yo life dat look for a reason to fall out with u,” Moneybagg Yo wrote.

Fletcher responded, “You ain’t really trying to play this game is you? I’ll finish it on this b####.”

Moneybagg Yo and Fletcher’s clash played out in public, leading to opinions from onlookers on social media. Fletcher snapped at several people who commented on the couple’s behavior on Tuesday (June 25).

“We did text each other b#### then we came to the internet,” Fletcher wrote to one X user who thought the relationship drama should remain private.

The couple’s latest spat occurred a month after Fletcher criticized Moneybagg Yo’s baby mama. Fletcher accused Moneybagg Yo’s baby mama of harassment when he tried to downplay issues between the two women.

“Don’t say nobody,” Fletcher wrote. “Say your babymama. It’s been 5 years of stalking and harassment. This s### is SO beneath me.”

Moneybagg Yo’s baby mama suggested he was still obsessed with her. Fletcher dared the woman to prove it.

“You on your page promoting fraud and getting child support,” Fletcher declared. “You live in a f###### air bnb. We call you the cafeteria lady. You was a prostitute that he got pregnant. Nobody is f##### up about him but you. Drop some receipts or leave it on the play ground.”

Moneybagg Yo released a new album titled Speak Now on June 14. The project featured Lil Durk, Chris Brown, Morgan Wallen and more.

Young Dolph’s Alleged Murder Mastermind Arrested Again

By: Justin IveyCategory: News

Hernandez Govan, the man accused of ordering the hit on Young Dolph, was arrested in Southaven, Mississippi on Sunday (June 23). Govan was charged with stalking, driving with a suspended license and having an improperly mounted license tag.

According to multiple reports, Govan posted a $2,250 bond. He was released from the DeSoto County Jail on Monday (June 24).

Govan was apprehended while out on bond in the Young Dolph murder case. Govan was granted a $90,000 bond in 2023. His co-defendants Justin Johnson and Cornelius Smith remained behind bars.

“We were apprised of Govan’s arrest on an unrelated preexisting warrant,” a Shelby County District Attorney’s Office spokesperson told FOX 13 Memphis. “We are looking into the circumstances. The court will be made aware of the arrest.”

Govan will face traffic violations in Southaven Municipal Court on Wednesday (June 26). He is scheduled to appear in DeSoto County Justice Court for the stalking charge on August 20.

Young Dolph was shot and killed at a Memphis bakery in 2021. Prosecutors accused Govan of orchestrating the late rapper’s murder. Johnson and Smith allegedly carried out the deadly shooting.

Govan, Johnson and Smith’s trial is set to begin in September following several delays. The trial’s postponements frustrated Mia Jaye, Young Dolph’s longtime partner and the mother of his children.

“It is truly hurtful that my family was robbed of a future,” she wrote. “My love’s life was taken… and to be left behind to see NO ONE be held accountable in the court of law for the act… is INSANE…. Our family has witnessed lenient bonds being granted, absurd requests approved for the defendants to get a [change of] venue motion, freedom, more time to build a stronger defense… witnessed songs be made, defendants enjoying life while on [house arrest]… all while our loved one is 6feet deep, waiting for JUSTICE to be served… talk about disheartening, unfair, triggering and hurtful.”

Govan, Johnson and Smith were charged with first-degree murder for their roles in Young Dolph’s death. Johnson’s brother Jermarcus pleaded guilty to accessory after the fact and awaits sentencing.

Charleston White & Rick Ross’ BM Tia Kemp Drag Kids Into Bitter Feud 

By: London JennnCategory: News

Charleston White and Tia Kemp, Rick Ross’ baby mama, are risking a potential Instagram ban to take each other down while dragging their kids into their nasty dispute. 

The controversial social media personalities have taken the gloves off in their war of words. White kicked the beef off on Monday (June 24). He went after Kemp in a video, slamming her parenting skills and blasting her for “publicly shaming” her son’s father by targeting him with wild accusations during her online rants. 

Kemp hit back shortly after in a video of her own, warning White he would regret speaking about her.  

“Aye Charleston White,” Tia Kemp began. “The way I’m finna line yo bull winkle c###-eyed ass up dog on YouTube, you gone wish you ain’t mention my muthafuckin name f### boy. Listen here b#### n####, I said what the f### I said and I’m calling a s#### a s#### just like yo b#### ass do p####.”

Unsurprisingly, the spat didn’t end there and only escalated further as the day continued with neither party willing to back down. After insulting each other’s looks, White and Kemp upped the ante and dragged the children into it.  

White posted multiple images of Rick Ross and Tia Kemp’s 18-year-old son, William Roberts III, while body shaming him in the caption. He also posted photos of his own children alongside a colorist caption. “My kids (slim, mixed, and gorgeous) vs Her fatherless son (fat, black, and ugly as ever),” he wrote.

Meanwhile, Tia Kemp also shared photos of White’s children and screenshots of their mother’s alleged past charges.

However, Instagram removed many of their posts, citing “community guidelines on bullying or harassment.” The feuding pair accused each other of reporting them, and Kemp urged her followers to get White’s page “shut down.” 

Nonetheless, the drama continued on Tuesday morning (June 24), as White challenged the decision and reshared his posts attacking Kemp and her son. Meanwhile, Kemp clapped back, claiming one of the photos White shared was of Rick Ross’ nephew, not his son. 

Boosie Badazz Tosses Ankle Monitor In Pool, Claims Federal Gun Charges Dropped 

By: London JennnCategory: News

Boosie Badazz is celebrating after scoring a major legal victory after learning that he’s free of the federal gun charges that landed him behind bars last year.  

In June 2023, the Baton Rouge native was locked up for the second time in as many months. He was eventually released on a $100,000 bond after spending several days in jail.  

On Monday (June 24), a year and a day after he was placed on bond, Boosie revealed his case had ended. He celebrated with a special announcement before tossing his ankle monitor into his swimming pool. 

In a video from a recent pool party, the “Wipe Me” Down stood atop a rock as he announced his good news. “My P.O. say the charges terminated,” Boosie declared as his guests whooped and cheered. “And I can cut my ankle monitor off. 

Boosie then hurled the ankle monitor into the pool and dived in after it as his guests continued cheering. 

Back in May 2023, San Diego police arrested Boosie following a traffic stop and charged him with being a felon in possession of a firearm. Although the case was dismissed weeks later, Federal agents nabbed Boosie moments after the dismissal. The feds also charged with him being a felon in possession of a firearm. 

Prosecutors argued he was a flight risk and should not be let out on bond. However, the judge disagreed, and Boosie was granted bail on June 23, 2023. 

Davido Wants Rihanna For Next Collaboration; Talks Bridging Cultures Through Afrobeats

By: Houston WilliamsCategory: Exclusives

Davido, the Afrobeats sensation, has his sights set very high, and for good reason. He’s a global megastar with his sights on conquering the music game. 

Born David Adedeji Adeleke, Davido has seamlessly blended his Nigerian heritage with American sentiments to create a unique and infectious sound that resonates globally.

“I have lived in America before, even before my music career,” the Atlanta-born, Nigerian-reared artist explained. “I stayed in Atlanta for a bit, but so I always saw the difference between back home (Africa and the United States). I also always saw the disconnection that [existed] because – at the end of the day – we all know where we’re from originally. So I’m happy that things like entertainment have kind of connected us back, musically and we just soundly all getting back together.”

Davido expressed his love and satisfaction with how entertainment has played a pivotal role in reconnecting people of African descent with their roots. 

“You got people from America going back to Africa for holidays now. We got people wanting to find out where they’re really from, stuff like that. So I feel like I always knew that over time, the connection because anything that’s disconnected artificially will always connect back naturally. So I’m just happy that the Western world is accepting the culture and I’m just happy about everything,” he told Chuck “Jigsaw” Creekmur.

Known for his hit singles like “Dami Duro,” “Fall,” and “If,” Davido has established himself as a major force in the Nigerian music industry and beyond. His debut album, Omo Baba Olowo, released in 2012, featured several hit singles that solidified his status in the music world. His musical style, which blends traditional African elements with global pop and Hip-Hop influences, has earned him numerous awards, including BET Awards, MTV Africa Music Awards, and Nigerian Entertainment Awards.

The artist, who recently concluded a sold-out show at Madison Square Garden, reflected on his varied, pleasant tour experiences. “Touring has been crazy. I just did Madison Square Garden last month. It was an amazing show. Sold out and New York has always been a city that always shows love. Shout out to Summer Jam. I think it’s my second or third time here and we just, happy man. Thank you.”

When asked about future collaborations, Davido enthusiastically mentioned his interest in working with global superstar Rihanna.

AllHipHop: Who would you like to work with next? 

Davido: Everybody man, to be honest, probably Rihanna. “RiRi what’s up, call me!” Maybe. Maybe. 

AllHipHop: Yeah, you can bring her out of retirement, I think. 

AllHipHop: Yeah. She popped her collar the other day on breaking records and hits and stuff. 

Davido: Yeah, she can, right. She got it. 

Davido is currently on tour in the United States.

Saweetie is defending herself against claims she caused a stampede after chaos erupted during her set at the Vegandale Festival in Chicago’s Grant Park on Sunday (June 23).
