NLE Choppa Calls Out Drake, DDG & More For “Thrust Challenge” Amid Homosexual Allegations

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: Rumors

NLE Choppa has responded to rumors circulating about his sexuality. Simultaneously, he’s enlisted Drake, DDG and more for a new social media challenge amid the rollout of his upcoming single, “S### Me Out 2.”

On Friday (April 12), Choppa shared a post on Instagram in promotion of the impending track while announcing the “Thrust Challenge” for social media users. In addition to nominating his rap peers DDG and Drake, along with streamer Kai Cenat and Warner Records labelmate 2Rare, Choppa introduced his new moniker “Sir F##k A Lot” and explained why the challenge wasn’t meant for the fainthearted.

“Hey man, say man this is a PSA from Sir F##k A Lot himself,” he said in part in the video. “Hey man I got an inspiring challenge for all the real n###as, the confident n###as, not the insecure n###as that want to uphold a thug image all day and be dry and don’t want to have fun like Black men used to have fun back in the 70s and the 80s. This not for you.”

As he continued, Choppa revealed the challenge was inspired by GloRilla and Megan Thee Stallion’s “Wanna Be” challenge, which is currently taking social media by storm.

“This for the real men,” he said. “I got a challenge for y’all inspired by Megan and GloRilla because women know how to have fun. Sexyy Red, all y’all having fun. So to all my real n###as that’s ready to have fun, I got a new challenge for y’all. I call it the ‘Thrust Challenge.'”

NLE Choppa then demonstrated the proper technique for the challenge, which he says is as simple as “winding them hips” in the same sort of fashion one does when they’re “hitting that little b###h booty hole from the back.”

Prior to announching the Thrust Challenge, NLE Choppa addressed his two million followers on Twitter (X) on April 11 in a tweet in which he cleared up speculation about his sexual preference. In his brief message, Choppa attempted to break down how the self-love he projects to the world could be misconstrued as sexual fluidity, when in fact, it’s the exact opposite.

“I understand me being in love with myself as a BLACKMAN is so RARE to the point some people try putting the homosexual jacket on my name but with all due respect I love ALL, but my intimacy lies with women only,” NLE Choppa wrote in the tweet stamped with a prayer hands emoji.

Prior to issuing the challenge, Choppa released a snippet of “S### Me Out 2,” which he previewed during the Rolling Loud California last March on his Instagram page in a reel. The clip racked up more than three million views.

Outside of his suggestive mirror dance moves, it appears the lyrics from the snippet helped the reel gain traction. Similar to the viral live performance Canadian rapper Eric Reprid delivered in February for his single “Suki” in which he raps about “Bussy” (apparently known as “boy p###y), NLE Choppa’s latest snippet is home to a questionable one-liner.

“Ummmmmm, smell like badussy/I’m tryna eat that a### and p###y,” NLE Choppa raps at the top of the clip.

J. Cole’s controversial Might Delete Later seemed to be on pace to open at No. 1 on next week’s Billboard 200 chart. However, the latest projections have the Fayetteville native losing the top spot to Beyoncé.

According to HitsDailyDouble, Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter album will remain at No. 1 with 131,000 units in its second week of release. Might Delete Later is set to debut in second place. J. Cole’s mixtape looks to rack up around 118,000 units.

Benefits of Music Education

By: Staff WriterCategory: Uncategorized

Music education, commonly viewed as an addition to traditional academic fields, possesses inherent worth that goes beyond simply enjoying melodies and rhythms. It provides a wide array of advantages that play a crucial role in the comprehensive development of individuals. The article examines the value of music education, examining its impact on cognitive, social, emotional, and academic advancement, and how it equips students to navigate various life situations.

Enhancing Cognitive Abilities

Boosts Brain Development

One of the primary merits of music education especially in the USA is its capability to boost brain development. Interacting with music, whether through listening, singing, or playing instruments, engages parts of the brain linked to language, memory, and spatial-temporal aptitude. This stimulation contributes to the holistic development of cognitive functions and strengthens learners’ proficiencies in non-musical academic fields.

In environments where academic and musical education intersect, American services like AssignmentPay writing service can be particularly beneficial. For students juggling their music practice with academic obligations, such services offer support that allows them to excel in both areas without compromising on quality.

Improves Memory and Attention

Music education benefits cognitive functions such as memory and attention. The act of learning to play an instrument or sing demands the recollection of melodies, lyrics, and complex note sequences, bolstering short-term and long-term memory. Moreover, the focused nature of music training amplifies students’ attention span and concentration, addressing the query “how does music benefit students?” by demonstrating its broad cognitive advantages.

Supporting Academic Achievement

Academic Benefits of Music

Research has consistently shown that students who participate in music education perform better academically. The discipline and focus required in music study translate into improved performance in subjects such as mathematics, science, and languages. This correlation underlines the academic benefits of music, suggesting that music education may contribute to higher SAT scores and GPAs.

The academic rigor associated with mastering musical concepts and instruments often leads students to seek additional support for their schoolwork. Utilizing a cheap writing essay service can provide the necessary assistance, allowing students to maintain their academic performance while dedicating adequate time to their music education.

Enhances Language Skills

Music education holds a pivotal position in improving language proficiency and reading abilities. The auditory sensitivity and discrimination skills sharpened through music are applicable to language learning, aiding in pronunciation accuracy, vocabulary acquisition, and comprehension development. For students who are primarily dedicated to music, employing tools and services alongside a request for do my homework for me message can be important in reconciling their academic workload with their dedication to music. In this context, EssayPay offers an economical solution for students seeking rapid, college papers, guaranteeing that their academic achievements stay high while they persist in their pursuit of musical education. This assistance enables students to thrive academically while pursuing their musical passions, emphasizing the correlation between music involvement and academic success.

Fostering Social and Emotional Growth

Builds Social Skills

Group music activities, such as choir, band, or ensemble work, require cooperation, communication, and teamwork. Participating in such groups helps students develop vital social skills, including empathy, leadership, and the ability to work collaboratively towards a common goal.

Promotes Emotional Well-being

Music education offers significant emotional benefits, providing an outlet for expression and creativity. Engaging with music allows students to explore their feelings, manage stress, and develop a deeper understanding of themselves and others. This emotional engagement contributes to overall mental health and well-being.

Encouraging Lifelong Learning and Creativity

Inspires Creativity

One of the most significant benefits of music education is its capacity to spark imagination. Crafting, spontaneously creating, and deciphering music fosters creative problem-solving and innovative thought processes. This creative involvement nurtures a receptive mindset toward learning and challenges, advantageous in every aspect of life. Furthermore, this inventive talent honed through music education provides students with the adaptability to thrive and innovate in an ever-evolving global environment, guaranteeing their competitiveness and versatility in future pursuits.

Prepares for Future Success

Music education not only enhances students’ lives academically but also equips them for future success across diverse fields. The competencies honed through musical instruction, such as discipline, perseverance, and the skill to offer and receive constructive feedback, are highly regarded in employment settings. Moreover, the cooperative aspect of numerous musical endeavors boosts cooperative aptitude, teaching students how to unite harmoniously with others towards common objectives and aspirations, a vital resource in every professional setting.

Conclusion

What are the benefits of music education? Far more than mastering notes or playing an instrument, music education encompasses vital cognitive, academic, social, and emotional benefits, fostering the comprehensive development of individuals. It champions creativity, bolsters academic achievement, amplifies cognitive capabilities, and enhances emotional well-being. As students traverse their educational paths, blending music into their curriculum, while also leveraging academic support services, furnishes a well-rounded and enriching learning experience. This holistic approach not only readies students for immediate academic challenges but also lays a robust foundation for lifelong success and fulfillment.

Khloe Kardashian Ruthlessly Trolled After O.J. Simpson’s Death

By: Justin IveyCategory: News

O.J. Simpson’s death rekindled rumors about Khloe Kardashian’s paternity. Kardashian was the butt of jokes on social media due to claims that Simpson was a real father.

Simpson, who died on Wednesday (April 10), had a complicated history with the Kardashian family. Khloe’s father Robert was Simpson’s friend and part of the defense team in the former NFL star’s infamous murder trial. Simpson was found not guilty of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson, a friend of Khloe’s mother, and her friend Ronald Goldman in 1995.

Rumors of Simpson fathering Khloe began more than a decade ago. Kris Jenner, Robert’s first wife and Khloe’s mother, admitted she had an affair in her 2011 memoir. A year later, Robert’s second wife Jan Ashley claimed he admitted Khloe wasn’t his child.

“Khloe is not his kid,” Ashley said in a 2012 interview. “He told me that after we got married. He just kind of looked at me and said [it] like it was a matter of fact. He said, ‘Well, you know that Khloe’s not really a Kardashian, don’t you?’ And I said, ‘OK,’ and that was it.”

Robert passed away in 2003. Jenner and Simpson denied rumors regarding Khloe’s paternity.

Khloe ignored the trolling after Simpson’s death. She celebrated her daughter’s birthday on Friday (April 12).

“My baby girl is six today,” she wrote on Instagram Stories. “My sweet, silly but serious, sensitive but strong, kind, beautiful, loving little Tutu. You changed my life forever and I love every part of who you are. Your smile, your laugh, the sass you get when you dance, your independence (even though that also makes me insides cry lol), the way you love. Love me, love Tatum, love your cousins, love Lovey, love your daddy. You are love. My love.”

Fat Joe Responds After Kevin Durant Accuses Him Of Cappin’ About Rucker Park Game

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: Rumors

Remember that time Fat Joe confessed to lying in 90 percent of his raps? Well if you didn’t, Kevin Durant is here with a reminder based on his response to Joey Crack in an unrelated matter.

During A recent appearance on New York Knick’s player’s Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart’s podcast, Fat Joe recounted his experience spectating KD’s infamous game at Rucker park during the NBA lockout season of 2011.

And though his testimony was derived directly from memory, it appears he may have embellished the facts, slighty.

“You know, Kevin Durant was, he scored like 82 points in the third quarter,” Fat Joe started off. “Like, he don’t like me telling this story, they chased him out the Rucker, like they wanted to beat him up.”

He continued, comparing the NBA champion to Iowa University Women’s basketball player Caitlin Clark, in the process.

“He whipped they a## so bad that they wanted to literally beat him up out there. And he was doing like, almost the Caitlin Clark show,” he said. “He was checking it out, woosh, do a three. I mean from the other side of the court, I’m not talking about half-court. No, I was there at the game. I’m not talking about half-court. He was, they checked it out, pass it to him and five guys would go like this [Fat Joe pretends to play defense] and he was hitting them, water. He scored like 80 points I was like, ‘Oh wow.’ I was out there, they chased him into the truck he had to go.”

And even though it was somewhat apparent that Fat Joe was adding a little extra sauce on the story itself, KD wasn’t feeling it at all and addressed the claims in a quoted reply of the video in which he seemingly took the tough guy approach.

“Another podcast lie. It was nothing but respect and love out there that night, didn’t feel unsafe for one second,” KD wrote in his response on Twitter.

Fat Joe has since responded, addressing both Durant’s pushback of his retelling of the story, in addition to acknowledging his affinity for larger than life embellishments when offering oral history.

“I was there he knows I’m not lying 62 points in 3 quarters why was the game stopped it’s all love all i did was big him up ‘GREATEST STORY TELLER IN THE GAME’,” he wrote in a tweet.

R3 DA Chilliman & 03 Greedo Were Gunning For Competition Before Kendrick Lamar Dropped

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: Rumors

It’s as if R3 DA Chilliman and 03 Greedo saw the writing on the wall way before Kendrick Lamar’s bombshell verse on Future and Metro Boomin’s We Don’t Trust You track “Like That.”

Though his bars seem nearly as nonchalant as the delivery feels lackadaisical, yet confidently rehearsed in nature, the intent of R3 and 03’s verses on “Only Problem” is clearly one not geared toward harboring rap friendships. Keep in mind, this track was released last September and cleared the way for R3’s recent album, The People’s Choice.

No matter the case, the lyrics have seemingly aged like a fine wine, for both artists, if said bottle of wine was purely acidic, that is. On one hand, 03’s verse from top to bottom is particularly inflammatory, as he kicks thing off by rapping, “I’m finna do a song with somebody that I don’t like/This n#### think we cool, but he won’t make it home tonight.” Bro is so over the West Coast rap scene he literally spits, “Don’t ask me ’bout no Cali rappers/All them n##### lyin’.”

And just like 03’s bars were dripping with vitriol, R3’s lyrics are equally corrosive in nature. I mean, dude might not have said, “Muthaf##k the Big 3, it’s just big me,” but R3 really didn’t have to the way big-upped himself in his verse.

“In the booth, beatin’ the mic like I’m Sonny Liston/In the house, searchin’ for money/Now they safe missin’, In the club, swingin’ my chain like a hula hoop/Everybody turn to opps, I don’t know who to shoot,” R3 raps seemingly without breaking a sweat.

R3 doubles down on his sentiments In an exclusive statement to AllHipHop in which he said, “My opinion on the West Coast competition right now is that my main competition is myself and outdoing things I’ve already done. I’ll maintain being on top by continuing to come with new flows, new lingo, new wardrobe, new fashion statements, all the things that make a person stand out in their own lane.”

Regardless of whether the actual rap civil war will go down, and/or if Drake and Kendrick Lamar will go bar-for-bar, one thing is abundantly clear: R3 isn’t backing down for any one man, unless its like a clown of himself or something crazy like that. And even then, he might even snatch his own chain and proceed to rap about it.

Cam’ron Bashes Caitlyn Jenner For Saying “Good Riddance” After O.J. Simpson Died

By: Justin IveyCategory: News

Cam’ron berated Olympian Caitlyn Jenner for her reaction to O.J. Simpson’s death on Friday (April 12). The Dipset member brought up Jenner’s involvement in a fatal car crash as he chastised her for saying “good riddance” to Simpson.

“I don’t understand how n##### is still convicting n##### [when] they won the case,” Cam’ron said on his show It Is What It Is. “I seen m############ Caitlyn Jenner write some s###. ‘Good riddance.’ Caitlyn Jenner, you killed n##### in Calabasas! Talking ‘bout paparazzi was chasing you. And you was Bruce! Nothing to do with transgender s### or nothing like that. I’m just trying to say the paparazzi wasn’t on Bruce to where you had to be running to kill n#####.”

He continued, “You ain’t Princess Di, n####. The f### you mean the paparazzi was on you, n####? You killed n##### and you paid n##### $800,000 because you was wrong. If you wasn’t wrong, you would’ve fought it.”

Jenner was involved in a car accident that left one person dead in 2015. She wasn’t charged with a crime but faced lawsuits over the crash. Jenner settled the cases out of court.

Cam’ron was just one of the many people mentioning the deadly crash after Jenner said “good riddance” to Simpson on X (formerly known as Twitter). Jenner defended her comment on Friday.

“I know you all think it’s cute to compare a fatal car accident (with multiple vehicles involved) to a BRUTAL MURDER… But Remember… OJ said something to the effect of… I could kill her (Nicole) and get away with it bc I’m #OJSimpson,” she wrote.

Simpson died on Wednesday (April 10). The controversial figure was a regular guest on Cam’ron and Ma$e’s web show It Is What It Is.

The former NFL star was infamously found not guilty of murdering his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman in 1995. Jenner’s ex-wife Kris was friends with Nicole. Kris’ ex-husband Robert Kardashian was part of Simpon’s defense team.

Pras Suffers Another Legal Defeat But Still Has Hope For New Trial

By: Justin IveyCategory: News

A judge denied Pras Michel’s motion for acquittal in his political conspiracy case on Friday (April 12). The Fugees member claimed prosecutors presented insufficient evidence to convict him, but Judge Collen Kollar-Kotelly disagreed.

“After a five-week trial, a jury convicted Michel of 10 counts,” the judge wrote. “The Court has thoroughly reviewed the extensive evidence presented at trial and finds the evidence sufficient to withstand a motion for judgment of acquittal under Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 29. Accordingly, Michel’s Motion for Judgment of Acquittal is denied.”

Pras was convicted of conspiracy, concealment of material facts, making false entries in records, serving as an unregistered agent of a foreign power and witness tampering in 2023. A jury found him guilty of participating in a conspiracy involving millions of dollars in foreign funds, which were used for illegal back-channel lobbying and unlawful campaign donations.

Prosecutors said Pras conspired with Malaysian businessman Jho Low to influence two presidential administrations illegally. Pras received $100 million for his efforts.

Pras believed he at least deserved a new trial if the judge refused to throw out his convictions. Judge Collen Kollar-Kotelly rejected his argument.

“Michel offers a blanket statement that the verdicts were against the weight of the evidence,” the judge wrote. “Michel presents no additional arguments—only directing the Court to review his previous arguments for judgment of acquittal—for the Court’s consideration … Based on the Court’s review of the evidence and trial transcripts, as well as presiding over the trial itself, the Court cannot conclude that a “serious miscarriage of justice may have occurred.’”

The judge added, “The jury was presented with significant evidence demonstrating Michel’s culpability for the charged offenses. The collective evidence is strong enough to satisfy the Court that the verdicts do not represent a miscarriage of justice. As such, Michel’s request for a new trial on this basis is denied.”

Pras maintained some hope for a new trial. His motion regarding ineffective assistance of counsel is still pending.

The rapper’s former lawyer David Kenner pleaded guilty to leaking information about the case to reporters in January. A spokesperson for Pras said Kenner “failed at every turn to competently represent Pras over the course of this lengthy legal battle.”

Boosie Badazz Condemns Hip-Hop Fans For Enjoying Rap Beef: “I’ve Seen People Die”

By: Justin IveyCategory: News

Boosie Badazz disliked seeing people’s excitement for rap beef. The Baton Rouge native explained why he wasn’t happy with the Hip-Hop community’s fervor for battles on Friday (April 12).

“EVERYBODY GASSING UP RAP BEEF SMH ALL EXCITED SAYING THIS HIP HOP!” Boosie wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter). “WELL EVERYONE N THE CREW NOT GO SEE IT THAT WAY. N WHEN IT POP OFF ‘IT REALLY GOES DOWN’. SO WHEN SOMEONE FROM ONE OF THESE CREWS DIE, DONT SAY THEY STUPID SMH GO SUPPORT THEM N COURT LIKE YALL SUPPORTED THE RAP BEEF.”

He added, “HOW WOULD U FEEL IF YOUR FAMILY MEMBER DIED CAUSE OF HIP HOP RAP BEEF! IM FROM LOUISIANA EVERY RAP BEEF IVE SEEN PEOPLE DIE. YALL SO HAPPY ABOUT WHO GO WIN R LOSE BUT A MAMA GO LOSE HER SON n ain’t none of yall going to the funeral smh.”

Boosie, who’s no stranger to rap beef, weighed in after Future and Metro Boomin unleashed more Drake disses on their album We Still Don’t Trust You. A$AP Rocky and The Weeknd took shots at Drake on the project.

The Hip-Hop world’s current enthusiasm for feuds erupted when Kendrick Lamar dissed Drake and J. Cole on the song “Like That” in March. The track appeared on Future and Metro Boomin’s We Don’t Trust You album.

Drake hasn’t responded with a diss track yet. Cole fired back at Kendrick on a song titled “7 Minute Drill” but regretted it. Cole apologized for dissing Kendrick at the 2024 Dreamville Festival.

“That’s the lamest s### I ever did in my f###### life,” Cole told the crowd.

Cole waved the white flag again with his surprise appearance on Future and Metro Boomin’s We Still Don’t Trust You. The Dreamville boss recorded a verse for the song “Red Leather.”

A$AP Rocky Adds To Drake Beef On Future & Metro Boomin’s “Show Of Hands”

By: Justin IveyCategory: News

A$AP Rocky joined the Drake diss party by taking shots at the OVO star on Future and Metro Boomin’s song “Show of Hands.” The track appeared on Future and Metro’s project We Still Don’t Trust You, which dropped on Friday (April 12).

“Call up Pluto, Metro, should’ve put me on the first one/N##### swear they b#### the baddest, I just bagged the worst one/N##### in they feelings over women, what? You hurt or something?/I smashed before you birthed, son, Flacko hit it first, son/Still don’ trust you, it’s always us, never them/Heard you dropped your latest s###/Funny how it just came and went,” Rocky rapped.

Rocky’s verse alluded to rumors of his alleged past with Sophie Brussaux, the mother of Drake’s son. Rocky dissed Drake in response to two songs from the Canadian artist’s 2023 album For All the Dogs. Drake explicitly referenced Rocky on “Another Late Night.”

“I ain’t pretty flacko, b####, this s### get really rocky,” Drake rapped.

Drake’s “Fear of Heights” was widely believed to be aimed at Rocky’s partner Rihanna. Drake’s repeated use of “anti,” the title of Rihanna’s last album, convinced fans he was talking about their complicated relationship.

“Why they make it sound like I’m still hung up on you?/That could never be/Gyal can’t run me/Better him than me/Better it’s not me/I’m anti, I’m anti/Yeah and the sex was average with you/Yeah, I’m anti ’cause I had it with you/Okay, I’m auntie like your daddy’s sister/Auntie like a family picture/And I had way badder b###### than you, TBH/Yeah, that man, he still with you, he can’t leave you/Y’all go on vacation, I bet it’s Antigua,” Drake declared.

Future and Metro Boomin’s We Still Don’t Trust You created more drama for Drake. J. Cole left Drizzy hanging, appearing on the project after Kendrick Lamar dissed both men on Future and Metro Boomin’s previous release We Don’t Trust You. The Weeknd seemingly dissed Drake and OVO’s Baka Not Nice as well.

Plies Calls Out Black People Supporting Donald Trump Over Milkshakes, Chicken & Gold Sneakers

By: Yohance Kyles (@HUEYmixwitRILEY)Category: News

Plies is not a fan of former president Donald Trump. The Floridian also takes issue with Black Americans who back the Republican candidate for materialistic reasons.

Trump recently made headlines for ordering milkshakes and chicken at a Chick-fil-A restaurant in Atlanta. In February, he revealed a line of gold footwear during Philadelphia’s Sneaker Con.

“Dear Black America: (Especially Men) If Trump Can Win U Over With Milkshakes, Chicken, Or Gold Shoes, U Just As Stupid As He Thought U Was!!! God Bless!!” Plies tweeted on Thursday (April 11).

Plies previously offered advice to Donald Trump’s political opponent in the 2024 presidential race, Democrat Joe Biden. The Real Testament album creator called on the Joe Biden and Kamala Harris campaign to brag about its accomplishments like rappers.

In March, Plies also shared his views on other Black men choosing not to speak out about social issues publicly. According to the ex-Miami University student, finances played a role in some of his peers’ decision to remain silent about politics in America.

“Most Black Men Don’t Speak On Black Issues (Publicly). Until The White Man [Stops] Paying Them. The Checks Have To Stop 1st B4 They Come Off Mute!!!” the “Shawty” hitmaker posted.

Busta Rhymes Recalls Refusing To Release Biggie Verse Dissing 2Pac

By: Yohance Kyles (@HUEYmixwitRILEY)Category: News

The Notorious B.I.G. versus Tupac Shakur remains one of the most famous rap beefs in history. Fellow 1990s-era Hip-Hop star Busta Rhymes apparently played a significant role in blocking a lyrical shot from Biggie to 2Pac before the two icons passed away.

“I said, ‘Big, I ain’t putting this out,” Busta Rhymes stated on Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson’s All The Smoke podcast. “Because Pac was my friend too. Pac choked a soundman out for me at a college show when we were Leaders of the New School.”

Busta also said, “I loved these n#####, man. I got to be the mediator. I can’t add fuel to this fire.” According to the NYC native, Bad Boy founder Diddy put that unreleased Biggie verse on the posthumous Born Again album.

Born Again hosts a track titled “Dangerous MC’s” featuring Mark Curry, Snoop Dogg and Busta Rhymes. The song includes The Notorious B.I.G. rapping bars about an actor needing a chiropractor followed by lines referencing 2Pac’s “I Get Around” single. Shakur starred in several movies, including 1992’s Juice.

“Diddy was looking for verses that might’ve been laying around that were never released commercially that B.I.G. had recorded. I told Diddy I had this verse for a long time. When Diddy wanted the verse, I said, ‘You gotta give me back the money that I paid B.I.G.,'” Busta Rhymes recalled.

Additionally, Busta Rhymes said he needed Biggie’s mother, Voletta Wallace, to approve anyone using the verse. Busta also revealed he replaced certain lyrics by B.I.G. that dissed 2Pac on the song with his own lyrics.

What Female Rapper Allegedly Got A Double BBL?

By: IllseedCategory: Rumors

At some point, these artists need to realize that we’re onto them; we’re aware of what’s happening. Their business is our business.

So, I heard a rumor about Cardi B getting a double BBL. What exactly is a double BBL? It means her butt is enormous! Now, Cardi has never been shy about her opulent lifestyle or her transparency regarding her cosmetic enhancements.

I’ve been holding onto this rumor for a few days, hesitant to spread potentially false information. However, I recently watched a video of her performing a charitable act, donating $100,000 to her high school – a ways back. And then, I saw it—her figure was striking. Her butt appeared significantly larger, and her waist remarkably smaller. While it’s plausible she achieved this through exercise, it’s equally likely, if not probable, that she underwent another surgical procedure. I won’t deny it; the idea of a double BBL sounds rather appealing now, considering how stunning she looks in this video. Here is the issue, the video is from a year and a half ago! So, could my data be off or could she have done the procedure again?

Curiosity piqued, I decided to research what a double BBL entails. Here’s what I found on a website:

A double BBL surgery is when the procedure is done twice on the same person. Some people must undergo multiple BBL surgeries to reach their desired look because one surgery cannot accomplish it to the full extent. This is typical of individuals who are seeking a more dramatic backside.

So, technically this could be true. And, since time has passed, I’m thinking there time to have had that done. What do you think? We know she has a new album on the way, the press, the interviews and the watchers will be watching.

So, why don’t we go ahead and watch her latest..and judge for yourself.

YG & Devin Haney Talk Attending Diddy’s Parties: “Always Hoes”

By: Yohance Kyles (@HUEYmixwitRILEY)Category: News

Professional prizefighter Devin Haney sat down with YG for the West Coast MC’s 4Hunnid podcast. The conversation included both men recalling their experiences partying with accused sex trafficker Sean “Diddy” Combs.

Devin Haney is set to face Ryan Garcia in Brooklyn, New York on April 20. Garcia trolled Haney by wearing a shirt with a picture of him and Diddy in a swimming pool.

When questioned about Ryan Garcia’s pre-match jab, Haney responded, “Diddy had a bunch of hoes at his house. I made my way to the house, and s###, what the f###?” 

Then Devin Haney asked YG if he ever attended one of Diddy’s infamous functions. The 4Hunnid Records head replied, “Definitely… Always hoes. It’s a lot of b######. I be in there with the b###### and all that.”

Diddy remains at the center of attention because of multiple lawsuits alleging the Bad Boy Records founder sexually abused women and men. In addition, Department of Homeland Security officials raided his LosnAngeles and Miami homes on March 25.

Federal agents supposedly seized computers and other electronic devices from Diddy’s residences. Reports suggest DHS started a sex trafficking investigation into Sean Combs.

More information about the allegations against Diddy could be highlighted further. Several production companies have greenlit documentaries about the Grammy winner’s legal issues. Combs continues to deny all sexual misconduct allegations against him.

Did The Weeknd Diss Drake On Future & Metro Boomin’s “We Still Don’t Trust You” Album?

Has the long-rumored tension between The Weeknd and Drake finally come to a head? Has a Canadian artist civil war officially started thanks to a track on Future and Metro Boomin’s latest project?

We Still Don’t Trust You dropped on Friday (April 11). The follow-up to March’s We Don’t Trust You studio LP included a song titled “All to Myself” featuring The Weeknd. 

“They could never diss my brothers, baby, when they got leaks in they operation. I thank God that I never signed my life away,” Weeknd sings on the “All to Myself” collaboration. Those lyrics seemed to reference reports Drake wanted to sign the man born Abel Tesfaye to his OVO Sound label.

Drake was one of the first acts to co-sign The Weeknd at the start of the singer/songwriter’s career. The XO frontman later helped write at least four songs on Drake’s Grammy-winning Take Care album.

“I gave up almost half of my album. It’s hard,” The Weeknd stated in 2015 about working with Drake. “I will always be thankful – if it wasn’t for the light he shined on me, who knows where I’d be. And everything happens for a reason. You never know what I would say if this success wasn’t in front of me now.”

The Weeknd contributed to multiple We Still Don’t Trust You songs. The fact that he appears so heavily on the LP also fueled speculation of a rivalry with Drake, considering Future and Kendrick Lamar targeted the OVO leader on We Don’t Trust You.

Ja Rule Breaks Ground In Classroom Construction Project In Ghana 

By: London JennnCategory: News

Ja Rule is in Ghana to oversee the construction of a new classroom block in the country’s eastern region.

On Wednesday (April 10), the rapper broke ground at the site at Nuaso Anglican Primary School where the facility is being constructed. Ja Rule teamed up with charity Pencils of Promise to build a six-classroom unit at the school.  

Ja Rule said the project was a way to give back after the education charity honored him with the Audacious Award at their gala last year. 

“I’m proud of that,” he said in a speech during the groundbreaking ceremony. “I’m proud to be out here and have the audacity to come here and build a school in the middle of Africa for my people. 

I know that this is going to be an opportunity that will last for many, many years to come. This is just the beginning of something very special.” 

Ja Rule praised the students who recited “amazing, amazing” poems at the event before affirming his commitment to the project.  

“Education is the pillar of any community,” he added. “I will be back when the school opens up to come and speak and greet all the kids. We gon’ do this real big and we gon’ continue to do this with Pencils of Promise.” 

Earlier this week, Ja Rule shared a photo of himself alongside a quote from the revolutionary former president of Ghana, Kwame Nkrumah. “I am not African because I was born in Africa, but because Africa was born in me,” the unifying quote reads.

Cardi B’s First Driving Lesson In Rolls Royce Goes Hilariously Wrong   

By: London JennnCategory: News

Cardi B is taking driving lessons on the advice of her therapist who recommends she adopt some healthy habits. 

Although Cardi owns a fleet of luxury vehicles, she cannot drive and does not have her license. Nonetheless, on Thursday (April 11), Cardi B took to Instagram livestreaming her first lesson.  

“My therapist say I got to pick up a healthy habit because she said that I’m too involved with work and work is taking over my life,” she confessed. “So she said for an hour a day I got to pick up healthy habit.” 

Cardi took to the road in style, taking lessons in her Rolls Royce truck. However, she only settled for the Rolls because she misplaced the keys to her Bentley.  

The “Jealously” rapper made a decent start but got stuck when she had to back out of a cul-de-sac. She admitted being nervous of the rain, confused her left and right and was unfamiliar with the vehicle controls as she began to lose confidence.

“Reverse is like going back, right,” she asked her instructor who confirmed that it was. “I think you should do it,” Cardi added, joking she didn’t want to die while learning to drive. 

This isn’t the first time Cardi’s attempt at driving has gone wrong. She reluctantly went on a disastrous “Carpool Karaoke” cruise on The Late Late Show With James Corden in 2018. 

Furthermore, Cardi B lamented about her driving struggles back in 2021. 

“Just like that girl wrote a song about getting her drivers license Imma write a song about the struggle of not having a drivers license,” she wrote, referencing a Dua Lipa track. “I really wanted my McDonald’s at 4am last night instead of today but I couldn’t so I felt asleep hungry.” 

Drake Fans Stunned As J. Cole Appears On Future & Metro Boomin’s “We Still Don’t Trust You”  

By: London JennnCategory: News

Drake fans are losing it on social media, claiming J. Cole switched sides for appearing on Future and Metro Boomin’s We Still Don’t Trust You cut, “Red Leather.”  

The second installment of their joint album series arrived at midnight on Friday (April 12). Their first offering caused shockwaves in the Hip-Hop community and kicked off weeks of debate.  

Kendrick Lamar declared lyrical war on Drake and Cole on the project. He “M######### the big three / it’s just big me,” on “Like That.” Fans also speculated that the album’s title track seeks Future diss Drake.   

Cole fired back on “7 Minute Drill,” before dramatically walking back his diss and apologizing to Lamar causing uproar and intense debate among fans. 

However, Cole, who just wrapped his joint tour with the Canadian megastar, doubled down on “Red Leather,” sparking backlash from Drake fans. 

“My energy was never on some toughest n#### s### / I was just a conscious rapper who would f### a n#### b####…blicks get to blasting / I turn into a track star,” Cole raps on the track. 

In addition, listeners believe A$AP Rocky also got in on the action, dissing Drake over Rihanna on “Show of Hands.”   

“We Still Don’t Trust You” trended No. 1 on X (formerly Twitter), alongside “Red Leather” and “Rocky,” after the album dropped as fans shared their reactions.  

Meanwhile, Drizzy and KDot are rumored to be readying “nuclear” diss tracks. Perhaps Drake might have a few words for Cole’s retraction and appearance on “Red Leather.” 

Check out some of the reactions to the latest round of the rap drama below.  

Quavo Seemingly Responds To Chris Brown On Surprise Song “Tender” 

By: London JennnCategory: News

Quavo has seemingly returned fire at Chris on Brown on his new single “Tender” following Breezy’s apparent shot at the Migos rapper on his new song “Freak.” 

Quavo dropped at midnight Friday (April 12), 24 hours after Brown surprised fans with the deluxe edition of his 11:11 album.  The songs hint at their long standing issues dating back to 2017 when Quavo reportedly dated Brown‘s ex, Karrueche Tran.  

On “Tender” Quavo appears to address their respective history with Tran and Brown’s history of domestic violence.  

“You did a b#### wrong and now the b#### gone, she posted with a thug,” Quavo raps on the chorus. “Call the b#### phone, she won’t come home, don’t beat her up / It must be the drugs / Need to cross out your plug.” 

The lyrics seemed like a direct response to Brown’s subliminal shot on “Freak.” 

“Okay, now f###### my old b###### ain’t gon’ make us equal/Sipping that 1942 ‘cause I don’t do no Cuervo [Quavo]/Freak b####, she like Casamigos, not the Migos,” Brown rapped. He also appears to call out Brown on the second verse. Listen to it below and check out Brown’s track at the end of the page. 

Quavo & Chris Brown’s Tension Resurfaced in 2022

Chris Brown and Quavo allegedly came to blows over Tran at the 2017 BET Awards. Quavo and Tran dating rumors resurfaced in 2022 but she insisted there was no relationship.  

“We’re friends,” she said in 2022. “I’m single. I’m having fun and enjoying life. Nothing is too serious… We have fun, we’re friends.”   

However earlier this year, the tension bubbled back up when Brown and Quavo awkwardly sat next to each other at Paris Fashion Week  

“Can’t pick who u sit by,” Brown wrote on social media after the show. “F### all that growth s###. N#### not finna fumble my bag for little n#####.”
