OK, this is crazy. I’m going to abruptly blame comedian Katt Williams for everything that’s going on. He manifested this insane year with that infamous interview with Shannon Sharpe. Anyway, we have seen crumbling housesthanks to that manifestation, and Diddy is the biggest of all of them in 2024. And somehow, I think it’s about to get worse.
A new website is pushing for people who have allegedly or are accusing Diddy of misconduct. All you have to do is sign up and they will to reach out to you and help you sue the mogul, if they deem you credible (I assume). This is insane. It reminds me of those slip-and-fall commercials that the ambulance-chasing lawyers have.
The reality is, Diddy is accused of some heinous stuff and this is what happens. Another recent lawsuit was levied against him and it doesn’t look like his legal woes will soon cease.
I will say this: I am happy to see that he and his son Christian are no longer bucking back. Just be quiet, sit down and let the legal process work its way out. If you are innocent, this will work out for you. If you are guilty or found guilty, you might as well enjoy the bit of freedom you have. Honestly, I am almost positive they are going to bring up RICO charges in this case. It seems like the new trendy crime.
They’re not paying me, so I’m not linking to their site, but here is what it looks like.
Kanye West responded to a former assistant suing him for sexual harassment and wrongful termination, among other claims. A rep for Ye said he planned to countersue Lauren Pisciotta over her “baseless allegations.”
The controversial artist accused Pisciotta of blackmail and extortion. His rep justified the 2022 termination of Pisciotta.
“Ye will be filing a lawsuit against Ms. Pisciotta, who actively pursued him sexually to coerce employment and other material benefits, then engaged in blackmail and extortion when her advances were rejected,” Kanye’s rep said. “Prior to her termination as an assistant, Ms. Pisciotta stole his cell phone in an attempt to destroy phone records that would contradict her claims, all of which have been preserved. She was terminated for being unqualified, demanding unreasonable sums of money (including a $4 million annual salary) and numerous documented incidents of her lascivious, unhinged conduct.”
Pisciotta claimed Kanye masturbated in front of her, sent her sexually graphic texts and frequently asked her about her sex life. Ye’s rep fired back by insisting Pisciotta was the one who repeatedly crossed the lines in their work relationship.
“During her employment, Ms. Pisciotta offered Ye sex on his birthday to which he declined, sent Ye unsolicited nude images, sexual narratives and was seen twerking in the office during business hours,” the rep said. “On one occasion, Pisciotta boasted how the best moment of her life was when she was being ejaculated on by a soccer player while simultaneously texting her boss.”
The rep continued, “It is well documented how Ms. Pisciotta consistently used sexual coercion in an attempt to demand not only money but material items, namely Hermes Birkin bags, a Lamborghini and an endless quest for plastic surgery. Upon having her advances rebuked, Pisciotta’s blackmail demands have gone from $60M last year to $50M in last week’s frivolous filing.”
Kanye’s rep suggested Pisciotta’s behavior was “inconsistent with someone who claims to have been sexually harassed or experienced a hostile work environment.” The rep said Pisciotta fabricated the allegations for attention because “her initial attempt at a lawsuit for unlawful termination gained no media traction.”
Stephen A. Smith and Monica McNutt had a heated exchange on social media on Monday (June 3). Actually, they first clashed on ESPN’s popular show First Take, and it all spilled out onto social media. Most of us are working when that show airs, but clearly a lot of people caught it and began reposting the interaction.
This is his face live on TV:
The discussion centered around Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese and all the buzz surrounding the WNBA right now. Mainly, people are talking about how the white point guard, who was a superstar in college women’s basketball, has uplifted the sport.
To me, this is a good thing, but there is a tinge of racism that goes along with it. It could be that she’s just an amazing ballplayer. Or it could be that she’s an amazing white player for mainstream and middle America. Don’t get mad at me. This is just how I see it. At any rate, the energy is electric and everybody is in. I have to admit, I am too.
Oh boy, it’s getting NEGATIVE on First Take today, Molly immediately had to go break 😂😂😂pic.twitter.com/YX2D9V8SNc

So, Monica McNutt and Stephen A. Smith had an interaction, and she read him for filth, as they say. She basically said that he could have been covering women’s basketball, specifically the WNBA, for years but didn’t. She essentially embarrassed him. I believe he was embarrassed, at least. To add insult to injury, you could see that the other hosts of the show were stunned by this “read.” Her face was like, “What?”
Apparently, they had a conversation, and the rumor is she apologized to him. I have to admit, I don’t think she was especially disrespectful. I do think she sonned him in front of the world. But I think it was really gender-related as far as that sonning was concerned. If it was a man doing the talking, I don’t think it would be as big of a deal. I think because it was a woman, and a Black woman at that, it amplified what happened. This was like getting burned at lunchtime in front of the whole school.
Did she deserve to apologize? If she did, I don’t think so. I hope and pray she didn’t apologize. I simply don’t think it was that bad of an interaction. I just think Stephen A. was rendered speechless for once. At the end of the day, there were fears that Monica McNutt would get fired or eventually phased out because of this interaction. That saddened me, so if the apology prevented that from happening, then I guess it was warranted. We want to see this beautiful Black queen on our airways every day or as much as possible.
GloRilla has been showing signs of the growth she has been talking about for years, and it appears her fans now have no choice but to take notice.
During a recent concert appearance with Megan Thee Stallion, the “Wanna Be” rapper appeared to take Waka Flocka’s famous twerk anthem “Round Of Applause” to heart, because shorty did make that thang clap–even to the surprise of Meg herself, who appeared speechless when seeing how proficiently Big Glo was throwing it in a circle.
Of course, almost instantaneously, social media reacted and began spiraling, putting GloRilla’s cheeked-up display into a hyper-focus on the timeline on Twitter (X) after a video of her generated more than a million views alone.
“Glo been practicing,” one user wrote in a tweet featuring the clip stamped with a shoulder shrug emoji.
Multiple users began chiming in on the thread, both engaging in virtual double-takes while also seemingly scrutinizing GloRilla’s sudden explosion of cake before their eyes.
“The world is not ready for thick glo,” one user wrote while another added, “This why everyone think she got a bbl.”
Some users deduced her relationship with her frequent collaborators could also be part of the reason that thang is moving like GloRilla once worked at Magic City, with one user suggesting in a tweet, “meg must’ve taught her [crying laughing emoji].”
In all reality, though, GloRIlla has been trying to tell us that she was this thick for years. In 2022, she actually issued a PSA about her cakes on Twitter in a lengthy tweet in which she gave herself her own flowers for having a natural body.
“It’s nothing nobody can tell me that’ll make me not feel & know that I’m thick !!!!! Like, do y’all know how many people asked me do I have a bbl a day ??????,” GloRilla wrote in the message.
There’s also the infamous Breakfast Club interview during which Big Glo literally stood up to show Charlamagne Tha God and the crew she was really cheeked-up in leather pants on the morning radio show just because. Not to mention the countless other moments caught in 4K of GloRilla feeling herself, along with the need to remind us all she was as thick as she wants to be.
Check out the clip below and judge for yourself whether Glorilla’s hips don’t lie.
Trina admitted she hadn’t spoken to Nicki Minaj in at least a year due to their friendship’s deterioration. Trina blamed her team for past drama with Nicki regarding their 2019 single “BAPS” in an interview with Carlos King.
According to Trina, her mother’s death affected many of her relationships. Her grief caused her to become more and more detached.
“I haven’t spoken to [Nicki] in a while,” she said. “Probably a little bit over a year. Maybe longer … Maybe like a year or two. And I mean after my mom [passed away] honestly, I didn’t speak to a lot of people.”
Trina’s mother passed away in 2019. She recalled touching base with Nicki when Nicki’s father died in 2021.
“When she lost her dad, I reached out to her,” Trina said. “So, I think that was the last time.”
Trina also addressed the controversy over her declaring Beyoncé the “Queen of Rap” in 2023. The Barbz, Nicki’s most devoted and aggressive fans, believed Trina’s comment was a shot at their favorite artist. Trina denied any malicious intent and clarified her feelings about Nicki.
“I don’t have no problems with her,” she said. “Nicki’s an amazing, beautiful person. She’s an amazing, beautiful person and I always wish her the best. She’s doing phenomenal. She’s on a whole tour that’s been sold out. You can’t knock greatness and what somebody’s doing. You can’t erase the steps. You can’t take away from that no matter what. And when you look up and see it, and you like, ‘Damn, I’m proud. You deserving of this’ … My mind be on stuff like that. I’m just happy for you. You over here and I’m over here, but I’m just happy for you.”
Nicki began her Pink Friday 2 World Tour in March. The tour is scheduled to conclude in October.
Outlawz legend E.D,I ,Mean has been hospitalized after suffering a heart attack. The 2Pac affiliate shared a photo of himself laying in his hospital bed on Tuesday (June 4) with wires and tubes hooked up to his chest—albeit he had a smile on his face. He explained in the caption the fitness journey he started in 2020 is likely the only reason he’s still alive.
“My old way of life caught up with me yesterday and even though I’ve come a long way I still got some more work to do,” he wrote. “I had a massive heart attack yesterday leaving the gym. Ironically the doctors said it would have been a wrap for me but the lifestyle changes I made in 2020 are the reason I’m still here.
“This is not a sympathy post btw. I always laughed at people who go to the gram w personal s###. No this is a gratitude post. One super thankful to still be here, second @missreyes777 thank you for saving my life along with the great staff at this hospital. Close call y’all!”
The COVID-19 pandemic provided an opportunity for people to focus more on their mental and physical health, especially artists who are used to being on the road with often little time to exercise. EDI Mean showed off his impressive weight loss in an Instagram post as part of “Transformation Thursday” in February 2021.
The photo provided a side-by-side look at EDI before and after his fitness journey began. He wrote in the caption, “#transformationthursday Today I reached a major milestone and I gotta share w y’all…. Maybe 10 years ago I played what I thought was my last game of 21 (basketball). I went up for a rebound and my back said nah. I was laid up for two weeks and just figured that part of my life was done.
“Fast forward to [20] 21 and I just played two games with guys mostly 10 plus’s years younger than me…. We went 1-1 btw. I say all that to say, it can be done. P.S. the picture on the my left is me at 300.”
E.D.I. Mean has continued sharing his progress with his fans. In April, he posted another since-deleted pair of before and after photos with the caption, “imma just keep working on my myself and minding the business that pays me! SAY MAN DIS WORLD IS LOCO STAY FOCUSED AND OUT THESE HATERS WAY.”
AllHipHop reached out to E.D.I. Mean, who confirmed he was doing “better.” He added, “We have to get out of survival mode and embrace thriving and living our best life. True success is healthy living! So grateful to still be here.”
E.D.I. Mean was in the car behind 2Pac on September 7, 1996, when he was shot at a Las Vegas intersection. He died six days later at the University Medical Center of Southern Nevada, although EDI has always maintained his spirit lives on.
“I feel like his spirit is omnipresent,” he said in a 2019 interview. “It’s always there. Even now, with social media being as big as it is, we always see his pictures, his quotes, old videos, old songs. Young and new artists acknowledge him and pay respect to him. Even the younger generation, through YouTube and things like that, are getting hip to his music.
“I literally have 14, 15, 16-year-olds that DM me, message me and email, saying things like, ‘I wasn’t even alive when you guys were running around doing your thing, but I love this music and you guys are great.’ So that’s dope. Music is forever.”
Rihanna fans continue to beg for a new album, but she remains focused on her business endeavors. The Grammy-winning singer annoyed many of her loyal listeners by unveiling her Fenty Hair line instead of providing a music update on Tuesday (June 4).
“A new family is moving in!” Rihanna wrote on social media. “#fentyhair is pullin up and it’s time to finally have the hair experience you’ve been waiting for.”
She continued, “You know how much switching my hair up matters to me. I’ve had almost every texture, color, length, from weaves to braids to natural- so I am launching a flexible line of products for not only every hair want, but every single product is designed to strengthen and repair all types of hair, which is what we truly need! It’s time to play and get stronger by the style.”
Rihanna’s Fenty Hair launches on June 13. It will add to her already extensive line of Fenty-branded products, which include makeup and fragrances.
Music hasn’t been a priority for Rihanna in recent years. Her last album, Anti, dropped in 2016.
Motherhood has kept Rihanna busy over the past few years. She gave birth to her first child in 2022. Rihanna and her partner A$AP Rocky welcomed their second son in 2023.
Girl where is the Fenty Music… we f### around and get Fenty Food, Fenty Weed, Fenty Wine, Fenty purses, Fenty shoes, Fenty lashes, Fenty glasses and a Fenty water drop before the music… ily tho! 💗 https://t.co/e44QMeFuXr
A woman sued The-Dream for sexual assault, sexual battery and sex trafficking on Tuesday (June 4). Chanaaz Mangroe accused the singer-songwriter of luring her into an “abusive, violent and manipulative relationship filled with physical assaults, violent sexual encounters and horrific psychological manipulation.”
Mangroe, who uses the stage name Channii Monroe, filed her lawsuit in California. The alleged victim said she met The-Dream in 2014. According to her complaint, The-Dream trafficked the aspiring artist “under the guise of pursuing a legitimate recording and publishing contract.”
The plaintiff, who came to the U.S. from The Netherlands, was 23 years old when she went to Los Angeles to work with The-Dream in 2015. Mangroe thought she was on the verge of a big break, connecting with a hitmaker known for his collaborations with Beyoncé and Rihanna. But Mangroe said The-Dream “expected her to be available to have sex with him whenever he demanded it” throughout her time in Los Angeles.
“He assured her that sex with him was ‘part of the process’ and he could only write hit songs for her if she agreed to let him know everything about her,” the lawsuit explained.
Mangroe eventually moved to Atlanta. She signed contracts with Contra Paris and Epic Records, but The-Dream “maintained complete control” of communications with the label. Mangroe’s situation grew worse as she was subjected to abuse and sexual assault.
“Dream frequently strangled Ms. Mangroe during violent sex, sometimes with his hands, and once using the collar of her dress,” her lawsuit revealed. “On multiple occasions, Dream choked Ms. Mangroe so intensely that she almost lost consciousness.”
Mangroe lost her deal with Epic in 2016. She claimed The-Dream ruined her career and “her ability to live a life free from the trauma.”
“Choosing to speak out about the trauma I survived has been one of the most difficult decisions of my life, but ultimately, what Dream did to me made it impossible to live the life I envisioned for myself and pursue my goals as a singer and songwriter,” Mangroe said in a statement. “Ultimately, my silence has become too painful, and I realized that I need to tell my story to heal. I hope that doing so will also help others and prevent future horrific abuse.”
The-Dream, whose real name is Terius Gesteelde-Diamant, denied Mangroe’s allegations.
“These claims are untrue and defamatory,” he told the New York Times. “I oppose all forms of harassment and have always strived to help people realize their career goals. As someone committed to making a positive impact on my fellow artists and the world at large, I am deeply offended and saddened by these accusations.”
Mangroe is represented by the same attorneys behind Cassie Ventura’s bombshell lawsuit against Diddy. Cassie and Diddy settled their case out of court in November 2023.
The Navy Album will follow 2019’s Please Excuse Me for Being Antisocial and 2021’s Live Life Fast. Ricch’s debut studio LP became a commercial success. The Please Excuse Me for Being Antisocial single “The Box” had an 11-week reign atop the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
Plus, Roddy Ricch earned a 2x-platinum plaque from the RIAA for the Billboard 200 chart-topping Please Excuse Me for Being Antisocial. However, Live Life Fast peaked at No. 4 and only remained on the Billboard 200 for 10 weeks.
The dropoff in sales from his first album to his second album caused some Hip-Hop followers to declare that Ricch has fallen off as a recording artist. The 25-year-old performer reacted to those negative comments.
“Imagine if I had a dollar for every time they said I FELL OFF, I’d be a billionaire [red anatomical heart emoji],” Roddy Ricch tweeted on Sunday (June 2). That post amassed more than 19,000 likes on the X social media platform.
imagine if I had a dollar for every time they said I FELL OFF i’d be a billionaire 🫀
Some X users pushed back on Roddy Ricch suggesting his career has not seen a significant dropoff in recent years. For instance, one person wrote, “No disrespect, but what would you call it? A subtle fade into obscurity?”
Someone else replied, “You went off for long bro… you starve your fans of new music… that’s bad… we all thought you fell off.” Another commenter tweeted, “But you really fell off [pensive face emoji]. I still love you tho.”
Roddy Ricch also received love from his more hardened supporters. A fan declared, “They could never make me hate you.” Ricch also got a reply that read, “You got this bruh. I know you boutta come with sumn crazy.”
The Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) is currently the most-talked-about sports league in America, and rising stars like Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark have helped shine a light on it.
Reese and Clark became household names during the 2023 NCAA Division I women’s basketball tournament. Reese and the LSU Tigers defeated Clark and the Iowa Hawkeyes to win the National Championship.
The Indiana Fever eventually drafted Caitlin Clark as the overall No. 1 pick in the 2024 WNBA draft. Angel Reese went to the Chicago Sky with the No. 7 selection.
Since arriving in the WNBA, many sportscasters and fans have credited Caitlin Clark for bringing more eyes to the product. However, Angel Reese says she also played a role in introducing a new audience to the league.
“So many people are watching women’s basketball right now. It all started from the national championship game, and I’ve been dealing with this for two years now,” Reese declared during a news conference. “The reason why we’re watching women’s basketball is not just because of one person. It’s because of me, too. I want y’all to realize that.”
Angel Reese went on to mention that many different women have elevated women’s basketball. She stated, “A lot of us have done so much for this game.”
A recent on-court incident involving Caitlin Clark made national headlines. Angel Reese’s Chicago Sky teammate Chennedy Carter received an upgraded flagrant foul for giving Clark a hard shove during Chicago’s game against the Indiana Fever.
Carter’s actions caused widespread criticism with some sports talking heads suggesting WNBA players have been bullying Caitlin Clark. In contrast, other sports commentators claimed certain media figures treat Clark with kids’ gloves.
Chuck D has no problem sharing his opinions about Hip-Hop culture. For instance, the Public Enemy frontman had a message for unnamed rappers on Monday (June 3).
“If you over 40 and spitting meaningless dark energy in RAP you have to really think about what matters in the Hip-Hop foundation that birthed your chance at it,” Chuck D tweeted.
Around 30 minutes later, the 63-year-old MC also posted, “I didn’t say cease and desist. I said T H I N K… A over 40 mind should have a better ability to KNOW self and surroundings better. The ‘green’ days is greying.”
I didn’t say cease and desist. I said T H I N k ……. A over 40 mind should have a better ability to KNOW self and surroundings better. The ‘green’ days is greying…
Chuck D helped shift rap music into a more politically and socially conscious direction. Public Enemy albums like 1988’s It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back and 1991’s Fear of a Black Planet influenced generations of recording artists.
Recently, Chuck addressed battling in Hip-Hop in response to the highly-publicized Kendrick Lamar versus Drake feud. The Prophets of Rage member offered his view on the history of lyrical clashes.
“Rap and Hip-Hop didn’t form from [diss] battle culture. It formed from party dance culture,” Chuck D tweeted in April. “The battle culture was a mutation alongside moving the crowd.”
City Girls emerged as a mainstream Hip-Hop act in 2019 with songs such as “Act Up” and “Twerk” featuring Cardi B. However, Yung Miami and JT recently clashed publicly and seem to be moving forward as soloists.
“I think when the City Girls album just dropped and it didn’t do too well, and we was just trying to do our press run. The whole rollout of the album was just so bad because we was just in two different spaces,” Yung Miami stated.
She continued, “We older now, and she was doing her own thing. She on the West Coast, I’m in Miami. I’m doing my own thing. And I felt like naturally, when she doing her own thing, it just worked for her. And when I’m doing my own thing, it worked for me.”
“When we get together as a group, it just wasn’t connecting. 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###,’” Yung Miami explained.
Patrick Beverley and Rashad McCants are betting $1 million for a rap battle between Aye Verb and Rone.
Beverley has so much faith in his podcast co-host Rone’s battle rapping ability that he offered the whopping sum to anybody who could beat him. Thankfully, the retired NBA veteran has friends with deep pockets willing to place high stakes bets and instantly found a challenger.
Pat Bev appeared on the latest episode of Gilbert Arenas’ podcast, where the discussion turned to Rone. “I’ll put a $1 million behind anybody that wanna freestyle him,” Beverly offered. “Right now.”
Without skipping a beat, former NBA athlete Rashad McCants shot back with the name of a St. Louis battle rap legend. “Aye Verb,” he replied before telling Beverley to “Just line it up.”
Despite taking a backseat from battle rap in recent years, the former King of the Dot champ isn’t ducking any wreck. “Set it up,” Rone replied.
it’s gone happen 🤷🏾♂️😂 they playing with different money 😂 my first day on the job … a mil thrown up 😂😂😂 https://t.co/iIp5lkiVXI
Aye Verb, who recently hosted McCants on the debut episode of his podcast, reacted to the challenge on X (Twitter).
“I’ll be looking forward to doing that,” Verb said of battling Rone. “A million is on the floor.”
He added, “They gonna make it a big production. We might put a card together, give some people a chance to make them some money, get some visibility around some higher power s###.”
Battle rap fans shared their predictions on social media. “For a million dollars that Old Verb gone come out I can hear now ‘So it’s SHOWTIME’ and Verb gone 3-0 Rone,” one person wrote. “Rone smoking Verb,” added another.
Branding the clash “A battle I never knew I needed,” fellow former KOTD champ Real Deal said Rone is “so damn dangerous man.” He also dubbed Verb “a monster.”
Cardi B has the internet talking about her once again. The New Yorker of Dominican and Trinidadian descent had online trolls clowning how she speaks.
“At what point does making fun of Cardi B’s speech patterns become racist?” an X user asked about the 31-year-old Hip-Hop star. That question garnered a quote-tweet by Cardi.
In response, the “Bodak Yellow” hitmaker posted, “Awwwww thanks for defending me [pleading face emoji]. FCK THEM. I will never change the way I talk.”
She continued, “I became famous from that, just being myself! Then I started making music and became a millionaire out of it. THIS IS A MULTIMILLION-DOLLAR ACCENT BABBYY OKKKKRRR.”
Awwwww thanks for defending me 🥺
FCK THEM
I will never change the way I talk… I became famous from that just being myself! Then I started making music and became a millionaire out of it.. THIS IS A MULTIMILLION DOLLAR ACCENT BABBYY OKKKKRRR 💁♀️ https://t.co/jpezWMBCg0
“Wanna Be Remix” led to Bia dropping her “Sue Meee?” diss track directed at Cardi B. The bad blood reportedly began when Bia accused Cardi of copying her style which the Bronx native has denied.
“You should be home with your kids ’cause b####, you speak like second grade,” Bia raps on “Sue Meee?” That line may have sparked the conversation about Cardi’s pronunciation and diction.
When an X user told Cardi B to get in the booth, the Invasion of Privacy album creator hinted that music could be coming. She clapped back, “I’m hopping in the booth after I go to the gym, do this Zoom and get my pedi… GET OFF YOUR BREAK AND MAKE ME A CHEESEBURGER.”
Murda Mook is hitting back at Joe Budden for mocking his living conditions following his recent arrest on Instagram Live.
“Joe is a bozo,” the Harlem battle rap legend said during an appearance on the Uppercut Podcast. “I thought me and Joe was all right. I ain’t know it was like that.”
Mook continued, “He didn’t call to check and see if a n#### was alive or not. You know, it’s crazy a n#### want to worry about how you living, and [not] worry about if you living. Think about that. That’s wild.”
Dismissing Budden’s comments as “hate,” Mook alluded to the podcaster’s initial silence over the Diddy allegations, slamming him for clowning his apartment without checking the severity of the situation.
“That’s a special kind of hate,” Mook added. “You watching something happen that we stand up and march for. Police kill muthafuckas all the time. We seen s### was going wrong. When you seen that, as a Black man, you supposed to be concerned about the person. Especially if you thought you was cool. You can roast them later. Find out if the n#### breathing first.
“That’s how real n##### do it,” he said, before adding, “But that separates who is who and where we from.”
Back in February, Murda Mook took to Instagram live during a confrontation with NYPD officers at his apartment. Cops accused him of scratching his daughter’s arm.
Joe Budden roasted Murda Mook on his podcast and said he zoomed in to see his living conditions. “Yo, Mook. You have to move,” he teased after joking about the ‘box” sized apartment.
However, in his new interview, Mook claimed, “I’ve been out. I live up a few a few places but that’s neither her nor there.”
In a recent interview with 15 Mins of Fame, Murda Mook admitted, “I need help,” and said, “My life was spiralling out of control.” He explained that he felt lost after the death of his mother and checked himself into rehab.
Kash Doll is hitting back at critics shading her for hosting her baby shower at a Louis Vuitton store.
On Monday (June 3), the Detroit-bred rapper/actress, due to give birth any day now, posted footage of her baby shower on Instagram. After hosting her first child’s baby shower at The Detroit Pistons’ practice facility, Kash continued the trend of unique celebrations.
“O nothing just had my baby girl baby shower in Louis Vuitton,” Kash Doll captioned her post. “When i say i walked away filled with joy. i just can’t believe my life sometimes.”
In a follow-up post, Kash Doll added, “Y’all talking all that s### but neither one of u could have a baby shower in Louis Vuitton even if u could paid for it.” She explained, “That was a client appreciation event they did for me.”
When somebody replied, saying, “I dnt think anyone would want to even if they did have money,” Kash Doll clapped back again. “Right even if they did but u don’t again so s###,” she wrote.
Kash Doll is expecting her second child with boyfriend Tracy T this month. Their son Kashton was born in 2022.
Check out some more of Kash Doll’s responses below.

Kanye West is facing a sexual harassment lawsuit from a former employee who alleged the rapper fired her after sending her lewd videos and text messages.
Lauren Pisciotta also claimed West told her he masturbated during their phone conversations and questioned her about how well-endowed her boyfriends were.
In her suit, Pisciotta says she was a successful OnlyFans model earning $1M annually when she met Kanye West in 2021, per TMZ. He recruited her to work on his fashion line, and she claims she later worked with him on 3 songs on Donda.
However, Pisciotta alleged West approached her the following year asking her to delete her OnlyFans account to be more “God Like.” He promised to match her seven-figure earnings if she agreed, which she did.
Pisciotta Claims West Fired Her After Sending Lewd Messages
Pisciotta claims West then began sending her increasingly explicit text messages. “See my problem is I be wanting to f***,” one message read. “But then after I f*** I want a girl to tell me how hard they been f***ed while I’m f***ing them. Then I want her to cheat on me.”
West would also allegedly describe his sexual fantasies in graphic detail and even sent at least two sex tapes featuring Kanye and a model. Furthermore, Pisciotta claimed West would ask if she could hear him masturbating during their phone calls.
In another text message, Kanye West allegedly questions, “Is my d*** racist?” before adding, “I’m going to stare at pictures of white woman with black a#### and beat the s*** out of my racist d***.”
Pisciotta claims West then promoted her to Chief of Staff and gave her a $4M salary. She claims she was fired in 2022 but never received the $3M severance payment West offered.
She sued Kanye West for breach of contract, sexual harassment, wrongful termination and a hostile work environment.
Drake’s new “Wah Gwan Delilah” collab had fans wondering if they were listening to an AI-generated song as the Toronto megastar hopped on the remix of Snowd4y’s “Hey There Delilah” parody.
Late on Monday night (June 3), a highly autotuned version of the Plain White T’s song dripping with Toronto slang appeared on SoundCloud. However, fans were unsure whether the Drake feature was really him or yet another AI impersonation of the OVO honcho.
Wah gwan delilah aint it… drake p##### me off fr fr. I hope thats AI.
“Wah gwan, Delilah? Know I’m late ’cause there’s bare traffic / I just show my dog your ‘Gram / He said he knows a man that slapped it, I’m so cheesed / Your mademoiselle nights are geeked, I’m bent lowkey,” Drake raps on the song.
“Wah Gwan Delilah” began trending on X (Twitter) as users began roasting the song, doubtful the Drizzy feature was genuine.
“I refuse to believe Wah Gwan Delilah and Grippy are the first 2 tracks post the Kendrick beef,” one person wrote. “Ain’t no way.”
I refuse to believe Wah Gwan Delilah and Grippy are the first 2 tracks post the Kendrick beef
Snowd4y’s friends were just as surprised he secured a feature from his fellow Toronto native on his first-ever song. He posted videos of his friends’ reactions after hearing Drake on the “Wah Gwan Delilah” remix.
During a recent appearance on the Richdiet Podcast, Snowd4aysaid he would be down for a “Wah Gwan Delilah” collab, but Drake “has to come on it neatly.”
Donald Trump marked his TikTok debut at a UFC event in Newark, New Jersey, amid the buzz of over 20,000 fans.
The former President, now calling himself “President Donald Trump” on his profile, shared his first post from UFC 302, capturing his entrance at the high-profile event.
The video, captioned “@realdonaldtrump Launching my TikTok at @ufc” with the tag “original sound – President Donald J Trump,” quickly amassed staggering engagement: more than 50 million views, over 109,000 comments, and 2.8 million likes.
Trump’s venture onto the popular social media platform comes just two days after a New York jury found him guilty of 34 counts related to falsifying business records.
Despite the legal turbulence, Donald Trump seemed unperturbed, mingling with long-time associate and UFC CEO Dana White.
The audience erupted in applause as White announced, “The president is now on TikTok,” and many onlookers gave Trump a standing ovation as he exited the arena.
Throughout the evening, Trump watched as Islam Makhachev successfully defended his title, sharing his in-the-moment experiences with the digital world.
The TikTok post also noted a swift rise in followers, with the account gaining nearly three million within 18 hours of its creation.
One enthused follower commented, “I’m so ready!! Now TikTok is gonna get fun!”
It’s a striking turn from Trump’s previous stance on the app, having once tried to ban TikTok on grounds of national security concerns.
“There is credible evidence that leads me to believe that ByteDance might take action that threatens to impair the national security of the United States,” Trump stated in an executive order back in August 2020.
The convergence of legal woes and social media fanfare paints a complex picture of Trump’s present moment.
His TikTok debut not only shifts attention away from his recent legal struggles but also reinvents his public persona in a landscape he once deemed hazardous.
2 Live Crew member Brother Marquis has died. Fellow member Uncle Luke confirmed his passing in an Instagram post on Monday (June 3). He simultaneously revealed 2 Live Crew—which consisted of Luke, Marquis, Fresh Kid Ice and Mr. Mixx—was still fighting to get its catalog back.

“We will continue that fight in his name for his Family. The Brother Marquis, that I know would want us to celebrate his life that’s exactly what I’m gonna do. R.I.P My Brother.”

Brother Marquis played a pivotal role in shaping the sound of Miami bass that defined late ’80s era Hip-Hop. The raunchy and often controversial group cemented their status with the Miami bass hit “Throw the D” in 1986.
The group’s notoriety soared with their 1989 album As Nasty As They Wanna Be, which became the first album legally deemed obscene. Their struggle for free speech culminated in a Supreme Court victory in 1994, when their parody of “Oh, Pretty Woman” was ruled fair use.
Brother Marquis and Fresh Kid Ice carried forward their musical journey with new singles in 2016 and continued touring nationally even after major lineup changes. Fresh Kid Ice died in 2017 from complications related to cirrhosis.
