Chlöe Bailey & Burna Boy Seemingly Confirm Romance On Second Night In Nigeria 

By: London JennnCategory: Rumors

Chlöe Bailey and Burna Boy appeared very much a couple after partying the night away during the singer’s second night in Lagos, Nigeria. 

The pair turned heads and had social media in a frenzy after putting on a flirty display on Sunday night (December 16). However, they turned up the heat a day later and apparently couldn’t keep their hands off each other at a Lagos night stop. 

Footage from the night shows Chlöe Bailey and Burna Boy smiling together and gazing into each other’s eyes. In other footage, they’re locked in a steamy embrace and whispering sweet nothings.  

In one video, Bailey proudly wears Burna’s “ODG” chain and pendant, worth a reported $1 million. 

Social Media Reacts To Chlöe Bailey & Burna Boy Rumored Romance

While neither Bailey nor Burna Boy have spoken publicly about the apparent blossoming romance, social media users had plenty to say. One critic slammed Bailey and her sister Halle over their “obsession with loser, degenerate males.” 

However, the singer also had her defenders. “We only saw Chloe with Gunna and Burna & we only seen Halle with the ddg,” one fan replied. “So what are you talking about? Ain’t no way Gunna & ddg are seen as scums & degenerates.” 

Meanwhile, others referenced the Nigerian icon’s famous ex, Stefflon Don, with one stating, “Burna boy flying Chloe Bailey in to Nigeria on Steff London’s birthday has to be the biggest Villain move I’ve ever seen.” 

As news of Burna Boy and Chlöe Bailey’s rumored romance broke, an old video resurfaced of the “Last Last” hitmaker gifting Stefflon Don a Rolls Royce Cullinan for her birthday last year.

While the British rapper showed off the gift on social media back in 2023, she never revealed who bought it for her. Fans accused her of leaking the video amid the buzz about Burna seemingly moving on with Bailey. 

Offset Seemingly Lashes Out At “Liar” Cardi B: “Pray For Them Kids” 

By: London JennnCategory: News

Offset is seemingly hitting out at his estranged wife, Cardi B, criticizing her parenting skills and branding her a liar despite partying together for his birthday over the weekend.  

Despite Cardi B’s recent claims that she and Offset are on good terms, it seems he now feels differently.  

The former Migos rapper took to Instagram on Monday evening with a cryptic post that appeared to be a thinly veiled dig at the NYC rapper who recently aired out alleged DMs of Offset begging to sleep with her.  

“Lies told to make me look bad,” he wrote over an image of him at his recent birthday bash. 

“I couldn’t play how you do,” Offset added. “Pray for them kids.” 

Offset’s remarks arrive after his social media accounts were allegedly compromised over the weekend.  

Cardi B twerked up a storm at Offset’s birthday party just hours after their private messages spilled onto social media. 

Offset’s Instagram DMs surfaced online, showing a heated exchange with Cardi B in March. In one message, Offset accuses Cardi of cheating and getting pregnant for another man. 

In response, Cardi B leaked her own messages, slamming the father of her children for cheating, naming his alleged fling, and even accusing his mother of stealing from her. 

Cardi B Explains Why She Leaked Offset’s DMs

The leaked messages spread like wildfire online. Cardi B addressed the situation during an X (Twitter) Spaces chat, claiming Offset was hacked. 

“S### is old. It’s not on purpose. I will never get back with this n####,” she said. “But I’m not even gonna lie, we’ve been peaceful for a week.” 

She also insisted “we been on good terms,” and said she leaked her DMs because she felt played.

Meanwhile, Offset’s “Pray for them kids,” remark comes amid Cardi’s claims that Child Protective Services (CPS) has been harassing her. 

An anonymous individual reported her to CPS back in October, but the state-run watchdog recently returned to her home to interview her children. 

Lil Wayne Reveals He Spoke To Kendrick Lamar, Addresses Rumored Super Bowl Appearance 

By: London JennnCategory: News

Lil Wayne is opening up about a recent conversation with Kendrick Lamar about the upcoming 2025 Super Bowl Halftime Show and his reaction to K. Dot referencing him on “wacced out murals.” 

During a new interview with Skip Bayless aired Monday evening (December 16), the New Orleans native revealed he shared some words of encouragement with Lamar and said the pair are “cool.”

While Lil Wayne admitted he isn’t over it yet, he has embraced the decision and moved on. 

“I wanna get to the point where I’m undeniable,” Wayne explained. “I want them to walk in there and have 10 other choices and whoever’s in charge says ‘No, you have to go with him.’”   

Lil Wayne also revealed he hadn’t heard Kendrick Lamar’s “wacced out murals.”  

The Young Money founder previously reacted to the track hours after Lamar’s GNX dropped.   

“Man wtf I do?!” he tweeted. “Let this giant sleep. I beg u all. No one really wants destruction, not even me but I shall destroy if disturbed. On me. Love.” 

On the track, Dot raps, “I used to bump Tha Carter III, I held my Rollie chain proud/Irony, I think my hard work let Lil Wayne down.” 

“I think he’s a fan, like I’m a fan of his music,” Wayne stated, adding, “He saw with everybody else. He saw how much it meant to me, I think that’s all he means.” 

He also said Lamar never “let me down,” acknowledging it wasn’t the Compton MC’s decision.  

Wayne continued: “There was no explanation that was needed for that. I think I understand. His hard work is the reason why he made it there, and obviously that part about letting me down is me just being upset and disappointed about not getting the spot.” 

Lil Wayne Wishes Kendrick Lamar All The Best

Nonetheless, Lil Wayne says he and Lamar have spoken about the Super Bowl, adding, “I wished him all the best and told him he better kill it.” 

While there were rumors of a surprise appearance at the Halftime Show, Lil Wayne squashed any speculation. “I’m not gonna even be in the country,” he said.  

Lil Wayne posted a video shortly after the NFL announced Kendrick Lamar as headliner back in September.  

“It broke me,” he said before accepting responsibility for not mentally preparing himself for the news.

JAY-Z’s Attorney: Assault Case Will “Crumble” Due To Accuser’s Inconsistencies  

By: London JennnCategory: News

JAY-Z‘s attorney is adamant his client is innocent and believes the case will “crumble,” due to evidence he claims “proves” the alleged victim’s account is impossible.  

Hov’s lawyer, Alex Spiro, held a press briefing on Monday (December 16), following the accuser’s recent interview admitting discrepancies in her account.  

The Alabama woman, known as Jane Doe, accuses JAY-Z and Sean “Diddy” Combs of assaulting her at an MTV VMA afterparty when she was 13. She acknowledged errors in her recollections but maintained that her overall claims remain valid. 

Spiro expects the case will be dismissed.  

“Obviously JAY-Z did not rape a child,” he said during the briefing, per abc News. “If it’s not, eventually this will all crumble, because it can’t possibly have happened mathematically.” 

Spiro continued, “You don’t even need witnesses. They don’t have any witnesses because this never happened and you don’t need witnesses because the time doesn’t work. There’s literally photographic evidence that proves that this could not have happened.” 

Spiro disputes Doe’s 37-minute timeline and notes other inconsistencies, including photos from the evening that place JAY-Z and Diddy in another location. She also said she met a celebrity at the party who denied being there and was in the Midwest on tour. 

Additionally, Spiro highlighted further discrepancies, including Doe claiming her father picked her up after the alleged assault. During a recent interview, Doe’s father said he could not recall making such a ten-hour round trip.  

“It’s not just that this story is a lie and that it’s not true,” the attorney continued. “It’s provably demonstrably false. This never happened.” 

Alex Spiro Distances JAY-Z From Diddy

Spiro expressed Hov’s frustration “that somebody would be allowed to do this,” labeling the case as a “mockery of the system.” 

“He’s upset that this distracts and dissuades real victims from coming forward,” Spiro said. “He’s upset that his kids and his family have to deal with this.” 

Spiro said that while JAY-Z knew Diddy professionally, he “has nothing to do with” Diddy or his case. ” They knew each other professionally for a number of years,” he explained. “Just like in all professions, people know each other at the musical awards. They support each other.” 

SIGNS: UnitedHealthcare CEO Murder Suspect’s Family Inheritance Worth Millions–Has One Catch

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: Rumors

Luigi Mangione, the 26-year-old suspect accused of murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, stands to lose millions from his late grandmother’s inheritance due to a strict clause in her will.

According to reports from PEOPLE and Fox News, Mary Mangione, who passed away in 2023, left roughly $30 million to her children and grandchildren. But her last will and testament had a serious condition attached. Apparently, any of her 10 children and or 37 grandchildren “charged, indicted, convicted of or [who] pleads guilty to a felony” is disqualified from receiving their share of the fortune.

The will outlines its intent with the clause in precise and specific wording, which even eerily goes into detail on the situational application of the subsection, should an incident similar to what occurred earlier this month arise.

“It is my precatory desire that the Trustees particularly consider invoking their discretion to implement this Section if the felony is a common law felony, a statutory felony if it is the codification of a common law felony, a heinous felony, any felony involving a physically violent act against another person or property or any drug-related felony involving distribution or intent to distribute any type of drug or illegal substance,” the legal document reads.

“The decision of the Trustees is conclusive, final and binding on everyone. It is my precatory wish that the benefit of the doubt is not given to the individual.”

With Luigi Mangione now facing charges of second-degree murder, firearm possession and forgery following the December 4 shooting of Thompson outside a Manhattan hotel, his eligibility for the inheritance is hanging by a thread.

Aside from the details about the lucrative family inheritance, the shocking case has garnered widespread attention and media coverage due to the nature of the fatal shooting. As of late, the Crime Stoppers bounty reward, which 50 Cent predicted on social media wasn’t large enough, has now come into question.

After Mangione fled the crime scene on a bicycle, investigators lost track of him in Central Park, sparking a five-day manhunt. His capture eventually came on December 9, when a McDonald’s customer in Altoona, Pennsylvania, tipped off an employee about Mangione’s presence. Despite their pivotal role in his arrest, the tipster may not see the $60,000 reward initially advertised by law enforcement.

According to the FBI, reward claims must go through a strict approval process. A U.S. investigating agency must nominate the individual, and the final decision rests with the Secretary of State and the Attorney General. The NYPD, which offered $10,000 through its Crime Stoppers program, may also withhold the reward since the tipster didn’t use the official Crime Stoppers channel.

Adding another layer of intrigue, Mangione has now retained powerhouse attorney Karen Friedman-Agnifilo to lead his defense. Friedman-Agnifilo, the wife of Marc Agnifilo—one of Diddy’s current lawyers—has been thrust into the spotlight for representing Mangione in the high-profile case. TMZ reports that the connection between these prominent legal players has fueled further public interest in what is already a sensational story.

Watch the report above to get additional details on the fatal shooting case thus far.

50 Cent Appears To Make Light Of Andrew Schulz & Kendrick Lamar Situation & Fans Loathe It

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: News

50 Cent recently trolled comedian Andrew Schulz over his controversial rant on Kendrick Lamar, leaving die-hard fans of the West Coast rapper with a bad taste in their mouth.

The G-Unit Films mogul didn’t hold back during a lively interview on the FLAGRANT podcast, where he weighed in on Schulz’s recent rhetoric targeting Kendrick Lamar’s track “wacced out murals” from his GNX album.

50 Cent pressed the envelope over Schulz comments about having sex with Lamar against his own will in response to his bars from the song slamming white comedians for telling jokes about Black women. In his initial remarks, the G-Unit rapper called out Schulz for crossing the line, delivering both humor and sharp criticism in his signature style.

“I’m a fan of your work, but I don’t understand what got into you that made you say you was gonna f##k Kendrick,” 50 began, before being interrupted by Schulz attempting damage control, “Whoa, whoa, whoa, I said make sweet love.”

A post shared by AllHipHop (@allhiphopcom)

50 shot back, immediately clowning Schulz for his snarky retort while also seemingly trolling Lamar and his fans, who have routinely cited the “Heart Pt. 6” rapper’s upbringing in Compton and sensitive past with sexual assault.

“Oh, sweet love. I registered for it f##k,” he said. “This is from years and years of trauma. his comes from abuse from the neighborhood that I grew up in.”

Transitioning to the public’s reaction, 50 Cent commented on the uproar by downplaying the outrage the comedian’s comments generated as a byproduct of the art of comedy.

“For people to write petitions behind it, it’s crazy,” he said, referring to the backlash Schulz faced. “Look, I follow comedic culture. I watch the comedians. I enjoy them on another level. You are comedic.”

He continued, “When I watch them [comedians], I look and I go, there’s no point that you could do something that actually damages what they’ve developed.”

Backing up his point, 50 Cent fired off a stray shot after mentioned other performers like Kat Williams, pointing out their resilience despite missteps.

“Kat Williams can fight a 15-year-old kid that is his height and not do so well, right?” he said. “It does no damage to Kat Williams. He’s still that guy.”

Kendrick Lamar’s camp has yet to respond to the controversy, but fans have taken to social media to defend the rapper. Many weren’t nearly as amused by 50 Cent’s analysis of the situation and sounded off on his unpopular opinion in the comments section of a post AllHipHop shared covering the podcast clip.

“They’ll always find one of us who’s willing to Sellout,” one user wrote in the comments section of the post. Another user added, “@50cent a cornball , he just hating cuz when he cooled down @kendricklamar took the top spot at aftermath.”

Online casinos are pretty competitive so they look for ways to attract and keep players. One way they do this is with appropriate sounds. This article explores how audio is used in iGaming.

The Role of Casino Music in Shaping Gameplay

Music directly affects how players feel. It influences emotions, focus, and attention. The right audio can create excitement. It can help players focus during key moments. The audio helps build tension when needed. It sets the pace of the game. Fast rhythmic music increases passion for the play. Slow one helps to stay focused. It shapes the entire play session. It is a powerful tool in creating rich memories.

Casinos know players look for sites with appealing features. Various bonuses and no deposit promotions bring in new players. Music works with these features.

Types of Music Used in iGaming

Online casinos use different types of music with styles depending on the game. Each style fits a certain type of game. Electronic songs work well for fast-paced slot games. Orchestral music fits themes of ancient settings or big adventures. Jazz and blues are used in games with website themes. It helps set the tone of the game. Different genres match the themes of different games.

Here are some common types of sound in iGaming:

Electronic and Dance Music (Bjork and more)

Many online casinos use electronic music to add energy and movement to their site. This type of music works well for slots. Bjork’s unforgettable sound is the main example of such tones. 

Music from movies has influenced how it sounds. The use of familiar songs helps set the scene. Players feel more connected when the soundtrack matches their idea of a casino.

SIGNS: Is World War III Here Now?

By: illseedCategory: Rumors

Yo, things are getting crazy out here and I think our “Signs the World is Coming to an End” may be manifesting.

Israel just dropped a bomb on Syria so powerful, it reportedly set off earthquake sensors, per a report from The Standard. Yep, you heard that right. It measured a 3.0 on the Richter scale. Video footage floating around shows the massive explosion near Tartus in northwestern Syria, and the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights is calling it one of the heaviest strikes in the region since 2012.

Good Lord, y’all!

The word on the ground is that Israeli warplanes targeted air defense units and missile depots, unleashing a bombardment that shook up the whole area. Israel, as usual, is playing it cool and refusing to comment on the strikes.

The U.S. Embassy is warning Americans to bounce. Leave Syria ASAP! Armed conflict and terrorism is popping off across the country. Americans in Syria will be stuck if they get stuck, because there is no embassy there. Get out like a Jordan Peele movie!

Now let’s keep it a buck—this isn’t just about one big explosion. Israel’s been pounding Syria for a minute. And you know those conscious watchdog’s have something to say. They are accusing Israel of exploiting Syria’s collapse to grab land and violate the 1974 ceasefire agreement. I know y’all mostly want rumors and trash, but this is important too.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu dropped a video statement claiming Israel isn’t looking for trouble, they are just finishing it. He said they are just “responding to threats” coming out of Syria.

Well, maybe I should go punch random white man. Netanyahu sent hundreds of airstrikes and even ground troops. There’s no clear end in sight. I hope I have this right but, it seems like Israel’s government is pushing population GROWTH. They are rolling into other places – straight up. Israel says it plans to double population in Golan Heights—period. This is why they are allegedly taking everybody’s land. JEEZ! I thought the grand plan was depopulation, but maybe that is just for Black folks.

Syria is looking like good right now. Israel is making some crazy chess moves in the ultimate war game. Keep your eyes open—this is far from over.

We may be past signs – the end is here!!!!!

Lil Yachty Fields Ma$e & Keith Sweat Comparisons After New Haircut Debut

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: Rumors

Lil Yachty is being mercilessly trolled online by social media users following his recent grand reveal of his new hairstyle after undergoing the big chop.

In case you missed the stream for the 10th anniversary Rolling Loud Miami music festival, Lil Boat surprised concert goers during his set by debuting his sleek low-cut taper fade after years of rocking his signature braids.

Though the “Minnesota” hit-maker shuffled through a laundry list of bangers, offering an electric performance as a result, his change in appearance ended up stealing the show. Fans post-event reactions overflowed on social media platforms such as Twitter and chronicled a wide range of emotions, and comparisons that were both flattering and critical of the Atlanta rapper’s major stylistic change.

“He looks like Keith Sweat dressing up as Ma$e for Halloween,” a user remarked in quoted reply to a tweet which reads, “I don’t even hate yachty, but this hair cut is absolutely terrible — This n###a looks like a cop.”

Another user piggybacked off of the comment and further deduced Yachty looked like the iconic R&B crooner, adding, ” Look like he’s starring in a Keith Sweat biopic.”

Additionally, one individual wrote, “This is what Keith Sweat would look like if his parents were Nigerian.”

The Ma$e comparisons also continued to roll as a user wrote in a tweet, “Looking like a mase from temu.”

In the thread of the tweet, multiple users added to the slugfest, including one user who compared Lil Boat to yet another prominent Black musician.

“N#### look like First Name Charlie, Last name Wilson,” the user wrote in the tweet.

Another user wrote, “F##king Carl Winslow origin story.”

Oddly enough, one user wrote, “Biggie smalls incoming,” despite Yachty’s rocky relationship with the city of New York over his comment’s about the East Coast fashion scene.

There were, however, a number of users who welcomed the change, including one in particular who appeared to prefer the new look over Yachty’s notorious red box braids.

“He actually looks good,” the user remarked in part. “Glad he got ride of them twizzlers and i hope more people do the same. dreads are played out.”

One other user joked, “Boat with now waves.”

While it’s unclear exactly what prompted Lil Yachty to chop his top, it has become very clear that his fans will need some time to get used to his new look.

Check out one of the video clips from Yachty’s hair debut during his performance in the post below.

By: Houston WilliamsCategory: Exclusives

Tia Mowry is back on top with a new Christmas movie that’s the most viewed holiday movie on Lifetime. She employed the talents of a Hip-Hop video creator-turned-director Bobby Yan, a native New Yorker. who has worked with Master P, interviewed The Notorious B.I.G. and is an 8x-Emmy Award winner.

Yan has been making waves with his festive feature, A Very Merry Beauty Salon, which stars Mowry. The movie skyrocketed to the top as the network’s No. 1 film. Yan says the movie focuses on sisterhood, unity and Black culture.

Yan shared the excitement of seeing A Very Merry Beauty Salon resonate so deeply with viewers to Chuck “Jigsaw” Creekmur at WonWorld Studios.

“It’s a celebration of community,” he explained, “the kind of story that uplifts while entertaining. That’s always been my goal.”

The director also sang the praises of Tia Mowry, who’s renowned for her role in the sitcom Sister, Sister with twin Tamara. She has since starred in numerous television shows and movies.

“Tia is a consummate professional,” Yan said. “She’s a queen. She’s a professional top to bottom. She’s amazing. She knows her stuff. She is a professional actress. She’s a philanthropist, she’s an entrepreneur. And I think the film shows that because she’s the executive producer. This is her third film in a three picture deal with Lifetime.”

The conversation didn’t stop there.

Yan revealed his next big project, Sugar Mama, a thriller set to premiere January 3, 2025 on Tubi.

“With Sugar Mama, I wanted to step into a different genre and challenge myself,” he noted. “It’s gripping, it’s intense, and I think audiences are going to love it.

He grew up in Hollis, Queens as Run-DMC exploded on the scene, and then worked under the legend “Uncle” Ralph McDaniels at the famed Video Music Box. In the interview with Creekmur, he wore a VMB hoodie to pay homage.

“Hip-Hop taught me to think outside the box,” he reflected. “It’s about finding your voice and staying true to it.”

Yan’s groundbreaking New Orleans show, Hip Hop Half Hour, played a crucial role in connecting him with McDaniels and introduced him to a wider audience. The show highlighted local talent, further cementing his ties to the Hip-Hop community.

Reflecting on his early career, Yan revealed that the first music video he ever worked on was for Master P’s “No More Tears.”

Working with director Quinn Armstrong while living in New Orleans, Bobby Yan witnessed the Southern Hip-Hop scene that was blossoming at the time.

“The beauty of it was being part of the local community and seeing artists like Juvenile, Cash Money and Mystikal grow from their beginnings,” he said. Yan even recalled lunchtime encounters with Mystikal, then known as Michael, during his college days. “His cousin worked on my show, so he’d sneak into the lunchroom. Back then, he had the hair, the braids—even before he became Mystikal.”

A graduate of the ABC Disney Directing Program, Bobby Yan is also known as both a cool person and creative genius. He’s solidified his reputation as one of the most respected directors in the industry today.

“We need more voices telling stories that matter,” he said. “For me, it’s not just about making movies; it’s about making an impact.”

Bhad Bhabie’s Lamborghini SUV Involved In Fiery Residential Crash Leaving Individual Hospitalized

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: News

Bhad Bhabie has been caught up in yet another scandal, except this time, the incident caused bodily harm to an individual rather than a stir on the internet.

According to reports from KTLA, a Lamborghini SUV owned by the media personality and rapper, whose real name is Danielle Bregoli, was involved in a fiery car crash in the San Fernando Valley in the early morning hours of Saturday (December 14).

The crash reportedly occurred around 4 a.m. local time on the 5500 block of Tampa Avenue in Tarzana. Preliminary investigations suggest the Los Angeles Police Department may have been pursuing the vehicle before the incident. It’s currently unclear whether Bregoli was present at the time of the crash.

Video footage obtained by KTLA shows the luxury SUV engulfed in flames as police arrived at the scene, with stunned residents watching from their homes. Gina, a neighborhood resident, recounted the chaos, revealing that this wasn’t the only instance something of this nature had occurred on the block.

“Before I ran to the window, I grabbed my phone to call 911 since this wasn’t the first time I’ve had to call them for the same reason,” Gina told KTLA. “I stayed and watched until the fire was out, and I didn’t see anyone drag the body from the car, but I did see a body right in front of our house where the mailbox used to be… moving like they were alive.”

Gina added that the crash damaged her vehicle and destroyed her cemented mailbox. Another resident, Tristan, shared his experience of assisting the driver.

“We came out and tried getting [the driver] out through the driver’s side door; my roommate ran over to the passenger side, opened the door and took the guy out,” Tristan revealed. “We didn’t think he was alive at first.”

The driver was transported to a hospital, though their condition remains unknown. Officers reportedly recovered a gun and luxury watch at the scene.

The Lamborghini that was registered to Bregoli has drawn further attention due to her recent health disclosure. Bregoli, who gained fame in 2016 following her viral “cash me ousside” moment on Dr. Phil, recently addressed speculation about her noticeable weight loss on Instagram. According to a report AllHipHop shared last month, the 21-year-old rapper revealed she’s taking “cancer” medication, though she didn’t confirm a diagnosis.

“I’m sorry my cancer medicine made me [lose] weight,” she wrote in an Instagram Story post on November 7. “I’m slowly gaining it back. So stop running w the worst narratives.”

Her statement appeared to be a response to body-shaming comments on recent posts where she looked visibly slimmer. The news has left fans concerned about her health, though she hasn’t provided additional details.

U.K. Rapper Slowthai Breaks Down After Being Cleared Of Rape 

By: London JennnCategory: News

British rapper Slowthai has broken down in court after being cleared of raping a woman at a house party following one of his shows three years ago. 

The Grammy-nominated rapper, real name Tyron Frampton was charged with three joint counts of rape after he and his co-defendant, Alex Blake-Walker, were accused of assaulting two women at the afterparty in September 2021, per BBC News.   

The prosecution had alleged Blake-Walker raped one woman while Slowthai encouraged him. Slowthai then allegedly raped another woman twice. The women had alleged they were assaulted on an outside roof. 

On Monday (December 16), after more than 10 hours of deliberation, a jury at Oxford Crown Court found Slowthai not guilty on three joint counts of rape. Blake-Walker was also cleared on all counts following a two-week trial. 

An overjoyed Slowthai reportedly burst into tears of joy as jurors delivered their verdicts. Crying was also heard from the public gallery where the rapper’s wife, singer Anne-Marie, watched the proceedings.  

The court heard Slowthai performed a gig at The Bullingdon music venue in Oxford on September 7, 2021, where he met a group of women who invited him to a party at one of their homes. The prosecution argued the alleged assaults took place at this party.  

Slowthai admitted to engaging in sexual activity with one of the women but insisted it had been consensual.   

“I know she was consenting,” he said, giving testimony during the trial. “There wasn’t a question.” 

After being charged in 2023, Slowthai was axed from the Glastonbury Festival lineup. Cancellations also followed from Reading and Leeds Festivals amid the allegations.  

Cardi B’s Bodysuit Steals Offset’s Birthday Bash Spotlight

Cardi B turned heads at a Miami nightclub Saturday night as she performed an electric twerking display during Offset’s 33rd birthday celebration.

The Grammy-winning artist, donned in a sheer bodysuit, danced near a railing while her estranged husband, rapper Offset, watched from a level above.

The Atlanta-born Hip-Hop star tossed stacks of cash in her direction, further fueling speculation over the pair’s famously turbulent relationship.

The duo’s high-energy presence at the club follows the recent leak of personal messages between them.

Offset’s social media accounts were allegedly compromised, leading to the release of direct messages and posts that reignited public scrutiny of their marital ups and downs.

OG Maco released his breakout hit, “U Guessed It,” in 2014, which became a viral sensation and earned him a deal with Quality Control Music.

He’s continued to release numerous mixtapes and projects, but his career has faced several challenges. In 2016, he was involved in a severe car accident that left him with multiple injuries. A few years later, he revealed he had a rare skin disease (flesh-eating necrotizing fasciitis) that significantly affected his appearance and required extensive treatment.

In 2019, he opened up about his condition in a series of photos and videos on his Instagram Stories, which included the immense scabbing that covered most of his face and scalp.

“So much healing has a [sic] occurred thanks to God and my doctors that I’m willing to show all a fraction of what I’ve been going through,” Maco wrote over a photo. “I was improperly treated for a minor rash and ended up with a skin eating disease for the last few months. This is the best it’s looked. I hope it gives someone hope.”

It’s unclear what led to OG Maco’s decision to try to end his life. AllHipHop maintains our support and is hoping he pulls though. Stay tuned for more updates.

By: London JennnCategory: Rumors

A video of Burna Boy gifting his ex-girlfriend Stefflon Don a Rolls Royce Cullinan for her birthday has surfaced online amid rumors the Nigerian superstar is dating R&B singer Chlöe Bailey. 

On Sunday (December 15), footage of the former couple was circulating online, with many claiming Stefflon Don leaked the video herself. The clip appears to have been taken amid Steff’s birthday last year and shows the rapper thanking Burna for the gift. Although the pair split in 2021, they were rumored to have reconciled at some point in 2023. 

The “Hurtin’ Me” hitmaker shared footage of the Rolls Royce last year, although she did not reveal who bought it for her.  

The video of Stefflon Don and Burna Boy surfacing online coincided with rumors linking the “African Giant” to Chlöe Bailey. The timing sparked suspicion among social media users, with many accusing Stefflon Don of intentionally leaking the video.  

“So Stefflon Don actually posted that old video from last year today because Burna Boy flew Chloe Bailey into the country today,” one person shared. 

“stefflon don crazy self doesn’t play about burna boy,” another added. “Oh she’s about to act like a pest towards Chloe.” 

Meanwhile, a third joked that Chloe better brace herself for an incoming diss track. 

“I hope Chloe Bailey know how to rap in Patois, “they teased. “’Cause Steff writing her verse as we speak.” 

Bailey arrived in Lagos, Nigeria, on Sunday and was soon seen hitting the club with Burna Boy. They looked comfortable together, getting cozy at a nightspot in the city.  

‘Bel-Air’ Actor/Singer Simone Joy Jones Reflects On Show’s End & Touring With Coco Jones

By: Houston WilliamsCategory: Exclusives

Simone Joy Jones, the accomplished actor, recently sat down to discuss her musical journey with AllHipHop but the conversation also touched on the hit TV series Bel-Air, the show she co-stars on. The series brass recently announced the final season of the series, which is a dramatic take on the classic sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.

Simone, who sings under the moniker S!MONE, has made an indelible mark with her performance as Lisa Wilkes.

The Carnegie Mellon University grad compared her time on the show to a collegiate tour of duty.

“It feels like four years. It feels like a college experience,” she shared to Chuck “Jigsaw” Creekmur. “It was like we’re in our senior year of entering the industry in this way in the TV industry. I’ve done movies and a little bit of TV before this, but being a series regular is different. You’re on set all the time.”

Passionately, the 25-year old said Bel-Air has shaped her as a person too. “I’ve grown a lot as a person, as a communicator, as an advocate for myself, and as a friend,” she said from WonWorld Studios in New York City.

Simone said the Bel-Air crew are more than just coworkers. “Speaking of my cast—all phenomenal. 10 out of 10s, all of them,” she said. While she admitted she never expects to form deep friendships with castmates, Bel-Air proved to be an exception. She recounted how her co-stars have supported her music career, attending her shows in Los Angeles and beyond.

Notably, cast mate Coco Jones, another standout talent from the show, took Simone on tour as her opening act.

“We just spent a month together on the bus, and to perform with my music that I wasn’t even sure about yet, not even being ready… These people are truly the ones I call and answer at five o’clock in the morning when they need help,” she said.

As Bel-Air approaches its final season, Simone expressed deep gratitude for the experience.

“I’ve never taken a single bit for granted. I’ve always stepped on set and been like, woo, yes! Do a little dance in my trailer. I just love it,” she stated.

Details about the final season remain under wraps, but fans can expect the show to continue exploring the complexities of the Banks family dynamics while providing a platform for its cast to shine.

As Simone looks ahead, her multifaceted ambitions remain at the forefront. Whether it’s through her music, acting, or directing, she’s destined to leave a lasting legacy.

On the musical front, Simone, as S!MONE, is bending ears as a classically trained (church and college) R&B singer. Her latest project, Magnet, has been met with rave reviews and critical acclaim. Check it out below, along with some pictures from our upcoming interview.

By: London JennnCategory: News

Sexyy Red and Summer Walker went viral on social media after sharing some controversial dating advice that didn’t sit well with their fans. 

The “Sense dat God gave you” collaborators joined forces on the debut episode of the R&B singer’s “Over It Radio” show. The ladies offered some unfiltered advice to a caller with relationship struggles. The woman explained her partner of nine years cheated on her twice, including with her best friend, and was unsure if she should forgive him. 

While Summer Walker initially stated, “She don’t need to be asking us,” Sexyy Red went off.  

“N##### be cheating,” she began. “Nine years, he only cheated twice? Girl, take that man back. It’s OK! A n#### gonna cheat, they gonna do that.” 

Walker stood firm, stating she doesn’t want to share advice that might “send young girls down the wrong path.”  Even so, she added, “But I mean, people shouldn’t be accepting that, but you are right. Two times is literally [nothing]. But friend, we can’t sound like this, we have to work on ourselves and accept better.” 

They went on to express that all men cheat, regardless of whether women want to accept it.  “They all act like that. Some people genuinely feel like there are men that don’t cheat,” Walker added. “But no, babe, they’re all cheating. So I say go back too, like what the f###.” 

However, the conversation didn’t go down well on social media, with many condemning their advice. 

“If you go to Summer Walker and Sexyy Red for relationship advice and take it, everything that follows is on you,” one fan shared. 

“Out of all the woman in the world to get advice from you chose to take advice from Sexyy Red and Summer Walker?” another added. “You’re a dumb ass and whatever happens to you after you damn deserve!”

Playboi Carti Previews New The Weeknd, Travis Scott Collabs Ahead Of Album 

By: London JennnCategory: News

Playboi Carti gave the Rolling Loud crowd a taste of his upcoming album, but it wasn’t enough for some fans who hoped to hear the entire project. 

Carti had promised to play his highly anticipated “I AM MUSIC” album during his headlining set at Rolling Loud Miami on Sunday (December 15). Clips of his performance circulated online showed he was making good on his promise, previewing several new songs, including tracks produced by F1LTHY, Mike Dean and Metro Boomin. 

He also debuted a new song featuring the Weeknd before closing out his set with another fresh track titled, “Drugs Got Me Numb.” 

However, Playboi Carti wasn’t finished. He posted a snippet of a song featuring Travis Scott on his @opium_00pium Instagram account.

While the Atlanta rapper has teased the project for years, he appears to be approaching a release date. Playboi Carti’s been sharing loosies on Instagram in recent months, but fans expected to hear the album at the festival’s 10th anniversary. 

In November, Playboi Carti told fans, “MIAMI TEN YEAR ANNIVERSARY. I AM MUSIC WILL B PLAYED. KANT WAIT TO SEE YAL MFS NAH FR.” 

The anticipation only grew stronger when Rolling Loud creator and founder Tariq Cherif repeated Carti’s claims.  

“When I got back from Thailand, Playboi Carti called me,” he said in an Instagram video Sunday. “We started talking about the album. He’s like, ‘Yo I’m play that s### at Rolling Loud. You saw him post it, I don’t know what he gonna do, he told you he’s gonna play that s###.” 

Cherif also revealed he heard the album via Facetime before hinting at guest appearances. 

“I heard it on FaceTime,” he added. “That s### sounded amazing. He got another one, with that guy he got another song with, and OUUUUU that s### is crazy.” 

Nonetheless, many Playboi Carti fans were disappointed to only hear a few cuts from the album. Check out some of the reactions below. 

Real Boston Richey Accused Of Leaking Exes Explicit Videos To “Brag” To Other Women 

By: London JennnCategory: Rumors

Real Boston Richey is being called out by his former girlfriend, who accuses the rapper of sharing an explicit video of her. She also branded him a “child molester,” in an explosive social media rant Sunday (December 15). 

The 27-year-old rapper previously faced backlash over his relationship with model Tatiana Chanell, who allegedly turned 18 earlier this year.  

However, the criticism intensified after Richey’s ex-girlfriend, Aire Jay, levied serious accusations against him over the weekend.  

She kicked off her rant by calling him a “child molester,” and “a creep who exposes girls.” In a follow-up post, she accused the rapper’s mother of harassing her and claimed he sent explicit videos of them having sex to other girls. 

Real Boston Richey Apologizes For Leaking video

She posted screenshots of their alleged DMs, with Boston Richey saying there is “Nothing to [be] mad about,” adding, “that’s my favorite video.” He also questioned how Aire could be upset that he wanted to “brag” about how good she was in bed by showing the video to other girls. Other messages show him apologizing and asking how he could make it up to Aire. 

Aire claimed Boston Richey offered to pay her $5,000 to apologize for the leaking video. However, she claims he backtracked and only sent $1,000.  

She also hopped on Instagram Live and claimed Boston Richey’s mother is accusing her of extortion. 

“Ain’t no extorting when a n#### exposed you,” Aire said during the live. “You don’t want me to sue you, so yeah, gimme what you gone gimme. Or we could go to court about this s###. I could sue you for everything.” 

Earlier this year, Boston Richey attempted to clarify his girlfriend’s age after he was accused of being a pedophile. 

“This girl 23,” he said while on a boat trip with Tatiana Chanell. 

Back in January, Boston Richey came under fire after Chanell celebrated her birthday. She insinuated she had only just turned 18, posting a photo with a cake that had “legal” written on it.
