Caresha “Yung Miami” Brownlee brought some much-needed holiday joy to South Florida over the weekend.
Hundreds of families drove through Phuse Cream in Plantation, Florida, for the annual “Caresha Gives” Community Toy Drive, an event designed to spread Christmas cheer and kindness while meeting the needs of underserved children.
Caresha personally handed out thousands of donated toys to excited kids, creating a festive atmosphere that rippled through the crowd.
Participants didn’t leave with just gifts; the event also treated families to holiday perks, including complimentary hot meals, creamy ice cream, cheerful face painting, and photos with Santa, all from the comfort of their vehicles.
Adding a unique twist to the day was a special collaboration between Caresha Gives and Phuse Cream, which debuted a holiday-themed ice cream flavor exclusively for the event.
For the South Florida native, giving back to the community during Christmastime carries a deep sense of purpose.
“Christmas has always been my favorite holiday, and it was incredible to see the smiles on these kids’ faces,” Caresha said. “South Florida will always be home, and giving back to this community that shaped me is a blessing. Every child deserves to feel special on Christmas, and I’m so happy we could make that happen this year.”
The “Caresha Gives” initiative has already started to gain momentum, even ahead of the official launch of the CareshaGIVES foundation in 2025.
The foundation aims to develop impactful programs that assist underserved communities with a focus on empowering families and expanding access to resources.
This holiday season marked the beginning of CareshaGIVING, the foundation’s first project, which kicked off during Thanksgiving with a Turkey Giveaway event in partnership with the City of Opa-locka and MegaTV.
Through this effort, families in Opa-locka were provided with meals to ensure a heartfelt holiday celebration.
Rumors are swirling on this Christmas Day! I saw something funny, where 50 Cent released his “opps list.” I thought it was funny, but absolutely thought there was some truth it it! Now, many of the names just happened to be Drake’s opps too. This list included Kendrick Lamar, Ab-Soul, Kanye West, LeBron James, and DeMar DeRozan. What a list! Still funny too!
Word is 50 Cent may be lending a strategic hand to Drake. We know 50 Cent. He’s got the big sword! Could he be helping with the ongoing Kendrick Lamar situation? Fans and analysts have pointed out these odd and peculiar shifts in Drake’s tactics. 50 is known to win battles in court too. This suggests there’s a bigger, more strategic mastermind at work.
Here Is The Evidence:
G-Unit Chain Spin: One of the most blatant signs was Drake’s unexpected nod to G-Unit when he spun a G-Unit chain during the battle. This symbolic move seemed out of place—unless it was part of a broader strategy devised by 50 Cent himself.
Battle Tactics with 50’s DNA: Some of Drake’s funny lines and bar strategies, like the “Push-ups” and the “Family Matters” references, felt like of 50 Cent’s earlier playbook with Ja Rule. While these moves didn’t land well at the end of the day, he had a week of good fortune. I hope Fif didn’t advise him on the use of AI.
Reverse Engineering Narratives: Drake’s use of the media and theories about bots to flip public sentiment is another tactic that screams 50 Cent. The issue is…Drake’s alleged use of bots was flipped back on him. 50’s ability to rebrand and weaponize criticism is very powerful.
Petitioning as a Power Play: Drake’s recent petition against UMG and Spotify, casting himself as a martyr in the vein of Prince and Michael Jackson, has 50’s influence written all over it. Turning a corporate complaint into a cultural stand is classic 50! Leveraging public sympathy! Not sure if it will work, but they definitely took away those “PDF” allegations.
Subliminal Responses and Strategic Dates: Kendrick’s recent subliminals seems to refer to Mr. Cent. References to “50 deep” and “money and power” suggest Fif is in Dot’s scope too. There are more rumors that even suggest that Drake could drop a significant project around Kendrick’s birthday.
There’s no denying this is all a calculated effort. One thing is clear: if 50 Cent is in Drake’s corner, the battle is about more than just lyrics. This is about cultural dominance! I am not sure that he can do anything with Kendrick, who’s a master chess player too!
Do you think 50 Cent is Drake’s secret weapon? Drop your thoughts below!
When did 50 Cent start disliking Kendrick Lamar? It feels like just yesterday when Kendrick made a cameo on Power. But now, it seems like 50 goes out of his way to downplay Kendrick’s achievements and the impact he’s had on hip-hop.
Quavo partnered with the Atlanta Community Food Bank, HOPE Hustlers, and Atlanta City Council for the second annual Huncho Farms on Tuesday, providing food and nutritional resources to over 500 families in Atlanta as part of his fight against food insecurity during the holiday season.
Held in the heart of Georgia’s capital, the event featured a festive outdoor farmers market that offered fresh produce, meats, canned goods, and a specially created Huncho Farms cookbook filled with accessible, nutritious recipes for families.
This year’s initiative expanded its focus by targeting grandparents raising their grandchildren in areas like food deserts, where access to affordable, healthy meals is limited.
Quavo highlighted the urgency of the situation through hands-on participation, alongside appearances by Atlanta City Council District 10 representative Andrea Boone and members of the HOPE Hustlers violence intervention organization.
“I’m so grateful that Quavo and the Quavo Cares Foundation chose this community for their Huncho Farms event this year,” Boone said. “This neighborhood is situated in a food desert, where a vast number of grandparents are raising their grandchildren. Food costs are exorbitant, making it more difficult for people to address their basic needs. This farmer’s market-style food drive will assist many hard-working people who deserve to have healthy fresh food and vegetable options this holiday season.”
Huncho Farms originated from earlier Thanksgiving drive-thru events by the Quavo Cares Foundation, which distributed turkeys, household essentials, and holiday meals.
Building on its success, the event evolved into a farmers market model.
The community-centered approach has allowed the foundation to work with partners like Walmart, Feeding America, and the Tender Foundation, which recently provided a $150,000 grant to support single Black mothers in the area.
The praise rising Vallejo rapper LaRussell is receiving from the generations of Bay Area artists before he continues to reign down following Oakland veteran Mistah Fab’s emotional testimony.
On Tuesday (December 24), the “Still Feelin’ It” lyricist shared a video of his experience at one of LaRussell’s recent concerts. Though the video was barely a minute long, Mistah F.A.B. managed to touch on a deep subject in a touching way as he described how LaRussell reminded him of his innocence before he was exposed to the realities of the industry.
In the caption of the tearful clip, Mistah F.A.B. went into detail about how the situation played out and his extensive history with LaRussell.
“Went to @larussell show just as a fan to watch from a far and he spotted me and called me on stage,” Mistah Fab wrote in the lengthy caption. “I was reluctant to go up as first because I was just there as a fan, but after adhering to the calling I felt compelled to share these sentiments.”
He continued, praising LaRussell and remarking on how Philadelphia content creator and motivational speaker Wallo played a role in creating the moment at hand.
“Thank you for having the courage to be different, the temerity to not be pusillanimous, creating aegis spaces for fans to galvanize and celebrate love and passion and honor this art of Hip-Hop,” he wrote. “It’s funny it took @wallo267 someone from a whole different region to put me on to who this man was years ago but I’ve been tapped in ever since….”
Mistah F.A.B. went on to encourage LaRussell to continue on his fearless path while also alluding to his own reinvigorated zeal for the art form and the business at large.
“Keep going brother…Don’t let non of these industry antics get you off your game,” he wrote. “I give glory to god for my story. Because for whatever reasons my route was detoured. Im still here, after radio politics, hatred from peers, quiet jealously, idols pushing competition instead of coalition. I’m still here and i stand in solidarity with whatever you on!!! Keep going brother voices of the village unite. You have reinstated and restored passion and promise. Rumble young man Rumble. The era way. GOOD COMPANY x DOPE ERA”
Mistah F.A.B. isn’t the only OG rapper to give LaRussell high praises for his elevated approach to breaking himself as an independent artist whilst also paying homage to those who came before him. In a recent interview with AllHipHop, Oakland legend Richie Rich recently sat down with Chuck “Jigsaw” Creekmur at the iconic WonWorld Studios and dished on why he loves LaRussell.
“I come from an era when people paid $20 for a CD,” Richie Rich said. “If they lost it or scratched it, they’d go buy another one. Paying for music wasn’t an issue. Now, with streaming, you can pay $10 a month for unlimited music. But if you think about it, how can all those artists eat off just $10?”
He continued, “Russell [LaRussell] introduced me to this platform where fans can pay directly for the music, even naming their price. One fan paid $500 for a download. The platform also gives me their contact info, so I can reach out directly about shows or special offers. It cuts out the middleman, putting me back in touch with my fans.”
Terry “Southwest T” Flenory partied onstage in Detroit with Rick Ross in his first appearance since President Joe Biden commuted his sentence.
The co-founder of the city’s notorious Black Mafia Family was one of more than 1,500 people granted clemency by President Biden as part of a broader effort to pardon those released from prison and moved to home confinement during the COVID-19 pandemic.
On Sunday night (December 23), Rick Ross called Southwest T up on stage at the Wild N’ Out show in Detroit. The former drug kingpin rapped along as Ross performed his hit song “B.M.F. (Blowin’ Money Fast),” which references Southwest T’s Brother Demetrius “Big Meech” Flenory.
Southwest T and Big Meech were sentenced to 30 years in prison in 2008 for their roles in running a money laundering and drug trafficking international drug trafficking operation.
However, Southwest T was released to home confinement in May 2020. He was granted compassionate release due to ill health and the risks posed by COVID-19 in prisons.
Meanwhile, Big Meech served out his sentence and was released to a halfway house in October.
Southwest T announced the good news about his commuted sentence on Instagram earlier this week. He shared a video of him having his ankle monitor removed alongside a copy of his pardon.
“Now It’s official!” he revealed in the caption. “It’s been a journey, but prayer and unwavering faith beyond mere human comprehension got us to this point. Never once acted in my own ability nor doing anything to anyone to help myself. So the gloves are off, the gag orders are up and all the naysayers have to suck it up.#godisgood.”
As the holiday season unfolds, Shawn “JAY-Z” Carter is trading festivities for legal filings, pressing for Jane Doe, the woman accusing him of a 2000 sexual assault, to reveal her identity.
In a motion submitted just before Christmas, JAY-Z’s legal team argued that Doe’s public interview with NBC News invalidates her claim to anonymity, asserting that fairness and transparency demand she proceed under her real name.
The lawsuit, filed in October, alleges that Doe was drugged and sexually assaulted by JAY-Z and Sean “Diddy” Combs at an afterparty following the MTV Video Music Awards.
While Doe has remained anonymous in court, JAY-Z’s attorneys contend her recent decision to share her story on a nationally televised program negates the justification for her privacy.
“By choosing to participate in a public NBC News interview, [Jane Doe] has deliberately placed herself in the public eye, undermining any claim that anonymity is necessary to protect her well-being,” JAY-Z’s lawyer, Alex Spiro, said. “This imbalance unfairly harms Mr. Carter by allowing unverified accusations to damage his reputation while shielding the accuser from similar scrutiny.”
The interview, which aired earlier this month, featured Doe describing her alleged assault and detailing her decision to come forward after more than two decades.
JAY-Z legal has seized on the segment, arguing that it exposes glaring inconsistencies in her allegations and raises questions about her credibility.
During the interview, Doe claimed her father drove over five hours from Rochester to New York City to pick her up after the incident.
However, her father contradicted this account, telling NBC, “I feel like I would remember that, and I don’t. . . that’s something that would definitely stick in my mind.”
This, along with other discrepancies regarding the party’s location and the presence of specific individuals, has become a cornerstone of JAY-Z’s defense.
“Her statements in the NBC interview directly conflict with key elements of her lawsuit, highlighting the lack of corroboration and credibility in her claims,” Spiro explained.
These contradictions, combined with her public disclosures, warrant the removal of her anonymity, according to Spiro and JAY-Z.
JAY-Z’s legal team framed their argument as a matter of fairness, pointing out the disparity in how the two parties are treated. While Doe has remained shielded from public scrutiny, JAY-Z—a global public figure—has faced widespread reputational damage as his name remains prominently linked to the case.
“Given her voluntary participation in a high-profile media interview, there is no reasonable justification for continued anonymity,” Spiro added.
JAY-Z has vehemently denied the allegations. In addition to warring with Jane Doe, the mogul is feuding with her lawyer, Tony Buzbee.
If Megan Thee Stallion’s legal strategy had prevailed in the 1970s, Bob Dylan’s “Hurricane”—the anthem that questioned witness credibility and highlighted systemic injustice in Rubin Carter’s case—might have been silenced in a courtroom.
Her lawyers have invoked a lawsuit against Bob Dylan to fight the rap star’s attempt to sue and quiet her critic, blogger Milagro Gramz.
Megan Thee Stallion sued Gramz for defamation, claiming the blogger’s social media posts during Tory Lanez’s trial for shooting the rapper defamed her and caused emotional distress.
Gramz’s defense, however, contends that Megan’s lawsuit attempts to stifle free speech and suppress critical commentary on a high-profile public trial.
“Rather than rebut the commentary or debate the issues raised by [Gramz’] comments so people can make up their own minds, [Megan Thee Stallion] has succumbed to the current trend of using the legal system in an attempt to cancel those opinions she disagrees with,” reads Gramz’s latest attempt to have the lawsuit thrown out of court.
The lawsuit revolves around social media posts where Gramz questioned Megan’s credibility as a witness, referred to her as a “drunk,” and suggested inconsistencies in her testimony during Lanez’s trial, where he was convicted of shooting Megan in the foot.
Megan Thee Stallion argues these statements are defamatory and harmful. Gramz’s attorneys counter that the remarks are opinions and rhetorical hyperbole, fully protected under the First Amendment – pointing to her own lyrics from her song “Cobra.”
At night, I’m sittin’ in a dark room thinkin/Probably why I always end up drinkin’/Yes, I’m very depressed/How can somebody so blessed wanna slit they wrist/S###, I’d probably bleed out some Pinot/When they find me, I’m in Valentino/ayy; He pourin’ me shots, thinkin’ it’s lit/Hah, little did he know.
Drawing a direct parallel to Dylan’s “Hurricane,” Gramz’s defense leans on the precedent set when Patty Valentine sued Dylan for defamation, claiming his song falsely implicated her in a conspiracy against Rubin “Hurricane” Carter.
“Taking Ms. Pete’s logic in bringing this case to its ultimate conclusion, given that a jury convicted Carter, any individual who suggested something to the contrary or who criticized the credibility of the state’s witnesses in that trial should be guilty of defamation. Patty Valentine, who was mentioned by name in the Dylan song, thought as Ms. Pete did and sued for defamation, claiming the song implied that she was involved in the conspiracy against Carter,” explained Gramz’ lawyer Michael Pancier.
The courts dismissed Valentine’s claim, emphasizing that public figures must endure robust criticism in matters of public interest.
Milagro Gramz’s attorneys argue that her social media commentary, much like Dylan’s lyrics, is constitutionally protected speech addressing a public trial of significant societal relevance.
Public figures like Megan Thee Stallion face a high burden of proof, needing to show “actual malice”—that Milagro Gramz knowingly spread falsehoods or acted with reckless disregard for the truth.
Gramz’s legal team asserts that Megan has not met this standard, arguing that her claims hinge on taking statements out of context.
The case raises critical questions about how defamation laws apply in a world where social media serves as the new public square.
Megan Thee Stallion’s defamation lawsuit against blogger Milagro Gramz sparks a free speech debate reminiscent of the controversy surrounding Bob Dylan’s “Hurricane” and Rubin Carter’s fight for justice.
The Joey Bada$$ situation is ugly. I saw the video, as most of you did, and it paints a horrible picture. This isn’t just a case of two random people fighting—it’s about two longtime friends. I don’t know the full extent of their friendship, but I do know they were once close.
The other guy, known as “Dee,” took the loss but walked out the door still talking. He also left a lengthy message on social media, which has since been deleted. However, in that post, he dropped some serious clues about what’s going on here.
He painted a really bad picture of Joey. I don’t like seeing these things about Joey because he’s one of the dopest rappers in New York City right now. In fact, he’s probably one of the city’s last hopes for a great MC, now that the GOATs have moved on.
Anyway, I want y’all to check this out and tell me what you think. I don’t have much of an opinion, other than it seems like a scorned bestie situation—but I could be wrong! Bro mentioned Capital Steez (RIP) and Joey’s mother, which is crazy work. Hopefully, there won’t be any more physical confrontations.
I did find it interesting that the bodyguard let him “cook” like that. Aren’t bodyguards supposed to secure the threat? But he let them fight it out fairly. Maybe he knows more than we do.
That’s right. That’s the rumor and possible fact. It’s now circulating over the internet that this scrap might be happening in Puerto Rico. The bout is reportedly planned for March 8, 2025 and will consist of eight rounds. Unlike the highly-hyped Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul fight, the fight will have three-minute rounds. Mike and Jake only had two-minute rounds to address the champ’s aging frame.
At this moment, I can’t find any evidence that a fight has actually been scheduled. I have seen that Roy Jones Jr. offered to “inherit” the beef from Tyson and fight Jake. But I don’t think they made the fight official. I also haven’t seen Paul addressing it. There’s some crazy mess about Jones Jr. fighting Paul and brother Logan Paul in a tag team fight. Now, Roy – come on!
“I would most definitely (do a tag-team matchup against Jake Paul and his brother). That idea sounds great to me,” Jones told Covers. “I’d probably choose Lennox Lewis as my partner. Lennox is a big heavyweight, and both those brothers are big heavyweights. Lennox was a heavyweight champion, and I was a heavyweight champion. But I was never a true heavyweight. So if I’m going to fight two heavyweights, why not give me a heavyweight, too?”
Roy is 55 years old. And he’s a pretty weathered 55, so I’m thinking he needs to be cautious. Secondly, Paul is not a “slouch a## ninja” to quote Mike Tyson. This CANNOT happen. I know the money is good, but we have to look past that at some point.
This is crazy! I can’t believe I am even typing this. I think Canelo is more in tune with reality.
André 3000 is breaking his silence on Drake leaking his verse on Kanye West’s “Life of the Party,” revealing he wanted his verse removed from the track but is happy the Toronto native brought the song to light.
The Outkast icon opened up about the track during a recent interview on The New York Times’ “Popcast” podcast.
Three Stacks explained he recorded a verse in 2021 for West’s DONDA cut, “Life of the Party.” However, Ye insisted he didn’t want profanity on the record but André was unwilling to censor his material and told him to remove him from the song.
“At that point, he didn’t want to put a dirty version out,” André 3000 said of Kanye West. “He said, ‘I told my daughter that I would not have any curse words on this album.’ And I was like, ‘Hey man, say no more. The kids, for sure. So just take me off.’ And we weren’t in agreement with how the song would come out.”
André 3000 Reveals He Asked Kanye West To Remove His Verse From "Life Of The Party" After Kanye Refused To Include Curse Words On His Album Donda And Thanks Drake For Leaking It, Which Gave The Song The Opportunity To See The Light Of Day.
André 3000 also clarified he was aware of West dissing Drake on the track before it dropped.
“I’d heard the diss part and me and Kanye had a conversation about it,” he explained. “I had my feelings about it. I was like, ‘Man, do you really want to do this on this type of song? It’s kinda like going and shooting up your mom’s funeral.’”
The collab was initially left off the album but was included in the deluxe edition after Drake leaked it on his SiriusXM radio show amid his feud with Kanye West.
“I was like, ‘Woah!’ I actually don’t understand why he did it,” André 3000 added. “I kind of have to thank Drake for letting that song see the light of day.”
In the future, we’re going to see a classic collaboration of epic proportions. AllHipHop’s Chuck “Jigsaw” Creekmur interviewed legendary, iconic Hip-Hop artists Bun B of UGK fame and DMC of the iconic group Run-DMC. They are both on a new song called “Bun DMC,” the brainchild of Boston-based rapper/producer Marco Polo aka Polovision. This conversation goes beyond the music, diving into the essence of Hip-Hop and where the culture is headed across generations.
AllHipHop: Yo! AllHipHop is in the building. We’re out here with Bun B, the king himself, and DMC, a legend. It’s great to see you both out here healthy and thriving. So, let’s jump right in—how did this collaboration come together?
Bun B: This has been a while in the making. The song we did was recorded over a year ago. We linked up through Marco Polo, who put this track together. It’s a great record, and we waited for the right time to drop it. Timing was everything—we wanted to make sure it hit right.
A few months back, I had DMC join me at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo in March, but the song was created before that performance. Collaborating with DMC, one of the founding members of this culture, is an honor. This is someone I’ve looked up to for years—someone who made me want to be an MC. To now call him a friend and collaborator is surreal. This collaboration shows that, regardless of generation, we all represent the culture. There’s room for everyone to contribute.
AllHipHop: Absolutely. It’s amazing to see legends and newcomers working together like this. Bun, I remember you invited me to church once, which was crazy for me. Thanks for always keeping it real. DMC, what’s your perspective on this?
DMC: I’ve been saying for years that we need to rebrand Hip-Hop. I recently saw someone online talking about how we’ve let it lose its essence. Look, anything sacred to a culture gets diluted once it’s commercialized. While commercialization has its benefits, it’s up to us to maintain the authenticity, integrity, and universal appeal of Hip-Hop.
I’ve been traveling the world since Run-DMC’s debut album in 1984. Everywhere I go, people tell me stories about how Hip-Hop has broken down barriers. For example, [Chuck D of Public Enemy] just told me about when he and Ice-T went to Croatia during the war, and they stopped fighting just to see them perform. That’s the power of this culture—it unites.
This collaboration, this video [“Bun DMC”], represents what Hip-Hop truly is. You’ve got Bun B, a Texas legend and an Underground King. You’ve got a young artist connecting the generations through the chorus. Marco Polo represents another generation, and then there’s me. Together, we’re showing the culture and the business what Hip-Hop is all about—unity and collaboration.
Marco Polo: First off, shoutout to AllHipHop for documenting the culture at such a high level. This song is inspired by everything AllHipHop represents. It’s like the perfect vibe for what you all do.
We had a crazy creative process. Bailey came through and laid down the chorus in 15 minutes—it was fire. Cliff Smoke produced the beat, and everything just flowed from there. Everyone brought their best. Bun and DMC wrote their verses, and we crafted something truly special. This track is vintage hip-hop with a modern twist.
DMC: Exactly. This record is about breaking the rules and showing what Hip-Hop can be. It’s not just about making music—it’s about creating moments. We’ve got young artists, OGs, Texas, New York—it’s all here. This is a celebration of 51 years of hip-hop, and we’ve still got a lot of work to do. This collaboration is just the beginning.
AllHipHop: Well said. Thank you all for your time and for continuing to push the culture forward. We can’t wait to see the video and hear the track. Any last words?
DMC: Just this—Hip-Hop is for everyone. Let’s keep building together. Stay tuned!
AllHipHop: Perfect. Thank you, Bun, DMC, Marco Polo, and everyone involved. Let’s get it!
It appears as though Youngeen Ace is fed up with entourage and has decided to completely upend his lifestyle as a result.
On Monday (December 23), the “Do It” rapper set the internet ablaze with an impassioned livestream that marked the end of his notorious ATK [Ace Top Killer] crew. In an emotionally charged tirade, the Florida rapper expressed his frustration with his team’s lack of loyalty and effort when it mattered most.
“I say no more ATK, there ain’t no more,” Yungeen Ace began. “You n#ggas don’t do s#it. When the time for the lawyer should be paid, where the f#ck n#ggas be at?”
Ace continued, specifying that his criticism of his crew seemingly falls on deaf ears, considering they’re never actually around when the major decisions need to be made — suggesting it’s not a coincidence either.
“When n#ggas be dying, n#ggas need to get buried, when the time to spend that money, where the f#ck do n#ggas be?” he demanded.
He added that his frustration also stems over what he saw as empty words and false support from his peers.
“N#ggas always got s#it to say but don’t be on s#it, man,” he said. “They don’t get no feet wet or nothing. You n#ggas just be talking.”
As his rant continued, Ace made it clear that his decision to dissolve ATK was rooted in a lack of collective responsibility.
“If we all homeboys, we’re supposed to do that s#it together,” he said.Split it down the middle. But you n#ggas ain’t on that,” he said. “Your dog die, nobody’s mama should pay no money to bury their kid. As we all is one, we supposed to go do it together.”
He also alluded to his Ace’s belief that internet culture and clout-chasing behavior.
“This internet do it to you, n#gga. Hate you, n#gga. I hate this internet. I hate all you b#tch-a#s, scary-a#s n#ggas. They don’t know no principles and s#it.”
Though he is clearly moving purely off of emotion, it may be a smart move for Yungeen Ace either distance himself from, or dismantle the ATK gang all-together. Earlier this year following the fatal shooting of Foolio, Jacksonville Sheriff T.K. Waters told media at a press conference that Yungeen Ace and his ATK gang were on watch in the city.
“Yungeen Ace has long been known in Jacksonville,” Waters said. “We are consistently monitoring those groups. We have people that are always watching them. But he can’t move around in Jacksonville without us knowing about it. And that’s for the betterment of our community.”
The bitter feud between two women involved with the late PnB Rock at various points in his life before he was murdered in Los Angeles in 2022 continues to linger on.
The drama surrounding the deceased Philadelphia rapper took another dark turn after the latest scathing livestream from the mother of his 11-year-old daughter, Milan Allen. In the heated Instagram Live session, the woman unleashed a string of accusations aimed at Stephanie Sibounheuang, who was his girlfriend at the time of his death.
“That b#tch snorts coke, all that s###,” Milan’s mother began, her anger palpable. “Had me forced and fostered with that n#gga.”
She continued with a barrage of insults, accusing Sibounheuang of being a “parasite” who drained the rapper emotionally and financially. The grieving mother even alleged that PnB Rock called her extremely upset because he couldn’t afford school supplies for their daughter.
“If I’m lying my kids can die today,” she said. “He called me crying cuz he was broke and could not send Milan no f###### presents, could not send Milan no school supplies, no books, no nothing.”
Eventually, the woman went on to accuse Sibounheuang of even deeper and more sinister activity, alluding to her welcoming dark energy into PnB Rock’s life.
“She came with this voodoo s###,” she claimed. “I ain’t never seen my baby dad go broke, y’all. My baby dad went broke. He said the last thing he just paid for was that b####’s body to get done again ‘cause she was in the house leaking.”
Earlier this month, during another livestream with her daughter Milan, the pair accused Sibounheuang of playing a role in PnB Rock’s murder. Milan’s mother questioned Sibounheuang’s actions on the day of the fatal shooting, suggesting her social media activity had something to do with the murder — despite reports debunking the theory.
“That man made you deactivate your IG,” she said. “The day you went back on IG was the day he got killed. Now stop playing with me, Stephanie.”
Watch the clip from the livestream in the post above.
Redman has FINALLY dropped Muddy Waters Too, the highly anticipated sequel to his iconic 1996 album Muddy Waters.
Released on Christmas Eve, the unorthodox release date only adds to the album’s intrigue. The project boasts a star-studded lineup of guest appearances, including Method Man, Snoop Dogg, and KRS-One. The 32-track opus also features contributions from ’90s heavyweights like Queen Latifah, Naughty By Nature, Shaquille O’Neal, Faith Evans, Sheek Louch, Kid Capri, and Rah Digga.
On the production side, Redman enlisted an all-star team that includes Erick Sermon, Rockwilder, Mike & Keys, Rick Rock, Khrysis, and himself. The album continues Redman’s legacy by adding a seventh chapter to his signature “Soopaman Luva” series, with Melanie Rutherford lending her talents to the track.
Redman announced the release date just last week after building momentum with the singles “Jersey” and “Don’t Wanna C Me Rich.” Muddy Waters Too marks the New Jersey legend’s first full-length album in nearly a decade, following 2015’s Mudface. During the years in between, Redman focused on acting, landing roles in Power Book II: Ghost and A Hip Hop Family Christmas.
Joey Bada$$ is going viral on social media after getting involved in an altercation with a man in a New York clothing store.
A video surfaced online Tuesday (December 24) showing the Brooklyn native brawling with an unidentified man the day prior during a shopping trip.
The security footage begins with Joey Bada$$ in a heated argument with a man in the corner of the store. The dispute continues as the rapper is seen gesticulating wildly before the situation reaches a boiling point.
Another angle shows them men pushing and shoving before blows are thrown. Several people attempt to intervene as Joey Bada$$ and the other man tussle on the floor.
Meanwhile, Joey Bada$$ was in the spotlight for his community outreach work last week.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams officially declared December 20, 2024, as Joey Bada$$ Day.
The proclamation was awarded during the New York City Department of Youth and Community Development’s (DYCD) second annual Hip-Hop Holiday Giveaway, an event designed to spread joy to local families while highlighting the rapper’s ongoing commitment to mentoring and empowering youth.
Joey Bada$$ also celebrated the inaugural year of his Impact MENtorship program for men of color. The program connects men of color with experienced professionals in their fields, providing mentorship and insights to support their future success.
Safaree and Erica Mena are at odds once again, with the former claiming he’s “blocked” from communicating with his daughter and the latter blasting her “dead beat” ex-husband, claiming he only wants their kids for a photo op and hasn’t seen them in six months.
Safaree took to Instagram on Christmas Eve (December 24), sharing an alleged screenshot showing multiple unanswered messages to his daughter that do not appear to have gone through. The Love & Hip Hop Star claimed he can’t pick up his children for the holidays because he can’t reach his four-year-old daughter.
“I’m trying to reach my daughter’s iPad so I can pick them up for Xmas but I’m blocked,” Safaree wrote. “I didn’t know 4 year olds know how to block people. it’s hard being a deadbeat .. but I’m sure after this I’ll somehow magically get unblocked. #blockedparenting.”
Although Safaree has since deleted his post, Erica Mena clapped back on her Instagram Story.
She posted a video asking their daughter if her iPad battery was “dead again,” dismissing Safaree’s claims he had been blocked.
Mena also slammed Safaree in a scathing rant. She alleged Safaree was supposed to have the children for Christmas last year but he failed to show up because he spent it with Ne-Yo’s ex-wife instead.
“Is she not available for you this year?” she added. “Or How about that young girl your manipulating?”
According to Erica Mena, Safaree hasn’t seen their children for six months.
She continued, “Since it’s Christmas I guess the photo opportunity is more important now than the once a week parenting time that’s been court ordered since 2022.”
Calling him a “dead beat,” Mena demanded Safaree, “please leave me the F alone with this internet s###.”
Erica Mena and Safaree’s custody issues have played out on social media in recent months. The former couple made serious allegations against each other in a series of posts.
Travis Hunter legitimately just won college football’s most prestigious, however, that’s not the reason why his teammates and other former NFL athletes and celebrities are talking about him.
Despite winning the Heisman Trophy as he continues his standout season with the Colorado Buffaloes under the tutelage of Deion Sanders, Hunter is surrounded by shroud of negativity stemming from criticism of his fiancée Leanna Lenne. In the latest development of the public’s intense scrutiny of the couple, Hunter deactivated his Instagram account after social media users resurfaced footage of Lenne allegedly dancing on another man at a party.
A photo of Lenne and an individual presumed to be the man she was dancing with also went viral and pictured Hunter’s partner embracing with him as he groped her dariere. This follows a separate incident when users resurfaced a music video Lenne purportedly starred in for a Soundcloud rapper while she was believed to be dating Hunter.

Additionally, Lenne has been accused of posting-and-deleting flirty comments on NBA player Anthony Edwards’ IG post as of late, as well. Keep in mind that all of this is playing out as the Buffaloes prepare to face BYU in the Alamo Bowl on December 28. Seemingly fed up with the onslaught of backlash his teammate is facing, Buffaloes quarterback and son of Deion Sanders, Shedeur, called out people sharing their opinions on the situation publicly under the guise of being concerned for Hunter.
“All you athletes, entertainers, artist etc. if y’all genuinely trying to holler at Trav, y’all know how to get in touch with him or someone around him,” Shedeur wrote in the tweet. “At this point y’all are just posting for the algorithm trying to look cool.”
Former Dallas Cowboys star Dez Bryant also tweeted his remarks on the situation, offering his blunt analysis of the situation to Twitter, rather than Hunter directly, ad Shedeur had advised. But apparently, Bryant felt compelled to do so, according to his message.
“I’ve tried my best not to get into Travis, business.. but I had two after seeing this,” Bryant wrote in part in the lengthy tweet. “I’m here to tell you Brother wake up and quit playing. She talked all that sh#t about you saying she was going to address the situation once but kept talking about it. She loves the attention way more than you she thinks she’s an equal to you. I can tell you are a great dude and I promise there’s a woman out there who’s going to make your life easy and respect you from what I see.”
Bryant concluded, “She has nothing to offer but a f###### headache what you got to offer she’s not the 1.”
In addition to Bryant and Shedeur’s remarks, Dr. Umar also chimed in on the discourse surrounding Hunter and his fiancée — though his approach to addressing the situation was vastly different than many that have come before him. In short, Dr. Umar accused YouTubers and content creators of attempting to disparage his relationship for “clicks” and monetary gain. The three aforementioned statements followed yet another impassioned address from Bow Wow, who urged Hunter to reconsider his relationship as he enters the final days before he secures his biggest check thus far.
Check out the post above to follow the shady saga thus far.
Cori Broadus, the only daughter of legendary rapper Snoop Dogg, has revealed she is expecting her first child with fiancé Wayne Duece.
Broadus shared that the discovery came as a surprise but was filled with joy and gratitude.
“I found out October 28,” the 25-year-old said in an interview published Monday. “This baby is so unplanned, but we are so blessed.”
Broadus, who’s Snoop Dogg’s youngest child with wife Shanté Broadus, announced that her baby will be a girl.
Reflecting on the new chapter ahead, she expressed excitement about embracing motherhood.
“I’m just excited to love on my baby girl and make her feel like she’s the prettiest in the world,” she said. “Growing up, I wasn’t the most confident and never felt like I fit in, so just to instill all the beautiful things in her head at a young age. And I’m having a mini-me. Wayne said he’s excited to have someone that looks like me.”
Though the couple is ecstatic, Broadus noted that her pregnancy has been classified as high-risk due to her preexisting health conditions, including lupus, an autoimmune disease she has been battling for years.
She assured fans and loved ones that things were progressing well.
“Doctors were very concerned for me and the baby, but God has his hands on me, and me and the baby are doing perfectly fine,” she said.
According to Broadus, her parents couldn’t be happier about the news.
“My mom and dad were so excited, their baby girl is having a baby,” she shared.
This baby will be the seventh grandchild for Snoop Dogg and Shante Broadus, who have previously spoken about the joy of grandparenting.
Broadus and Duece had initially planned to tie the knot earlier this year; however, their wedding was postponed after Duece suffered a stroke in January.
This challenging period in their lives was captured in the docuseries “Snoop’s Fatherhood: Cori and Wayne’s Story,” which delves into their relationship and upcoming union.
Mariah Carey and Anderson .Paak set tongues wagging after enjoying dinner together in Aspen, Colorado.
The musicians were spotted walking into swanky celeb eatery Catch Steak restaurant on Sunday evening (December 22). The pair were all smiles entering the establishment with .Paak holding Mariah Carey’s hand.
The “Leave The Door” open hitmaker held the door open for Carey, gently wrapping his arm around her to guide her through the entrance.

Earlier this year, the Silk Sonic singer filed for divorce from his wife of 13 years. The news shocked fans, many of whom had no idea .Paak was married.
An insider claimed the pair are actually working on new music together. The dinner “date” was nothing more than the pair grabbing a bite to eat while recording in Carey’s Aspen studio.
Mariah Carey and Anderson .Paak have been photographed together on multiple occasions in recent months.
Over the summer, .Paak shared a video of Carey at New York’s legendary Electric Lady music studios.
“Oh my God Mariah Carey,” .paak says in the clip. “Listen, you ever be star-struck, like when a star strikes you? That’s what it was. But I couldn’t just freeze up. We had to get into the studio and just make something.”
Then in October, .Paak celebrated Halloween with Carey. He took to Instagram with a photo of him dressed as a member of Daft Punk alongside Carey who donned a sexy feline costume.
