Tay-K Complains About His Treatment In Jail

Taymor “Tay-K” McIntyre currently resides in a Bexar County cell after a Texas jury sentenced the rapper to 55 years in state prison for a crime in Tarrant County. However, the 22-year-old convicted murderer is still sending out messages from his legacy-verified Twitter account.

A series of tweets showed up on the @tayk account on Tuesday. According to Tay-K, the treatment he is experiencing while awaiting a murder trial in the Bexar County Adult Detention Center is similar to the treatment of a small, domesticated animal.

“I’m [at] war within,” posted Tay-K on January 17 at 7:35 pm ET. Less than an hour later, he also wrote, “I feel like a hamster in here… They’re literally treating me like a ferret in here [right now].”

Tay-K became a national Hip Hop figure after his 2017 single “The Race” went viral. The Platinum-certified song supposedly documented the then-teenager’s interstate run from law enforcement before his Tarrant County murder trial.

United States Marshals eventually captured Tay-K in Elizabeth, New Jersey. Prosecutors from multiple jurisdictions charged The Santana World mixtape creator with numerous felonies, including a 2019 murder conviction for the killing of 21-year-old Ethan Walker in Mansfield, Texas.

Tay-K was also indicted on murder charges for the 2017 shooting of 23-year-old Mark Anthony Saldivar while participating in a robbery outside of a Chick-fil-A in San Antonio. Plus, Tay-K allegedly attacked and robbed 65-year-old Owney “Skip” Pepe in Arlington in May 2017.

Fans Believe Frank Ocean Teased New Album

Organizers for the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival announced R&B star Frank Ocean as a headliner for the 2023 event. Will Ocean perform music from a brand new project at Coachella?

Some Frank Ocean fans believe the singer/songwriter recently teased an upcoming album. Images of posters for a Blonded merchandise sale that include text spread across the internet.

“The Recording Artist has since changed his mind about the singles model, and is again more interested in durational bodies of work,” read part of the merch note, according to Billboard.

Frank Ocean has not presented a full-length album since 2016’s Blonde. Over that time, the New Orleans native did drop standalone singles such as “Chanel,” “Biking,” and “In My Room.”

Blonde arrived as an Apple Music exclusive one day after Ocean released his Endless visual album. In addition, the Grammy-winning Channel Orange became a commercial and critical success upon its release in 2012.

Prior to Channel Orange scoring a Gold plaque from the RIAA, Frank Ocean gained notoriety with his classic 2011 mixtape Nostalgia, Ultra. That project hosts the Platinum-certified single “Novacane.”

Frank Ocean was tapped to close out Night 3 of both Coachella 2023 weekends. Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny and South Korean girl group Blackpink will also serve as headliners for the festival.

Lil Yachty Reveals AI-Generated ‘Let’s Start Here’ Album Cover

Lil Yachty is ready to let loose his latest body of work. The Atlanta-raised rapper’s Let’s Start Here studio LP is scheduled to drop on January 27.

Yesterday, Lil Yachty revealed the official artwork for Let’s Start Here. According to Variety, the cover image appears to be created by artificial intelligence.

“Let’s start here. 1/27. LP. Thank You 4 Your Patience friends,” tweeted Yachty on January 17 as the caption for his Let’s Start Here cover reveal.

“It’s the first time I’m actually speaking on it. It’s a non-rap album,” said Lil Yachty during a January 2022 appearance on the Icebox YouTube channel. He added, “It’s alternative. It’s sick.”

Let’s Start Here will join a Yachty album discography that already includes 2017’s Teenage Emotions, 2018’s Lil Boat 2, 2018’s Nuthin’ 2 Prove, and 2020’s Lil Boat 3.

The 2016 XXL Freshman’s first two studio LPs peaked inside the Billboard 200’s Top 10. Teenage Emotions debuted at No. 5, and Lil Boat 2 opened at No. 2. His most recent album, Lil Boat 3, only made it to No. 14.

The “Poland” single arrived in October 2022. Lil Yachty scored another Top 40 entry with the song. The 2x-Platinum “One Night” is one of Yachty’s most commercially successful solo records.

Lil Yachty also has an 8x-Platinum collaboration in his catalog, thanks to Kyle’s 2016 single “iSpy” off the Light of Mine album. “iSpy” reached No. 4 on the Hot 100.

In addition, Lil Yachty earned a Top 10 placement on the Hot 100 as a guest feature on “Broccoli” by DRAM. Throughout his career, the 25-year-old rhymer worked with other artists such as Migos, Cardi B, Drake, and Young Thug.

Lil Wayne Suffers Major Blow In $20M Lawsuit Against Ex-Manager 

An appeal’s court has rejected the bulk of the claims from Lil Wayne’s $20 million lawsuit against his former manager and attorney, Ronald Sweeney.  

The Appellate Division addressed four claims from the suit, including causes of action for fraudulent inducement, legal malpractice, breach of fiduciary duty, and unjust enrichment, according to a report from Law.com.  

The First Department’s opinion stated each of the claims was devoid of any merit, shattering Lil Wayne’s chances in the 2019 suit. The Manhattan Supreme Court initially dismissed the four central claims in 2021, along with four more causes of action and some other parts of the claim. 

After the appellate court affirmed the earlier decision, Lil Wayne was left with a fraction of his legal action remaining.  

Ronald Sweeney’s appeal attorney, John Harris, a partner at Frankfurt Kurnit Klein & Selz, claims the rapper now has to pay up. Sweeney acted as Lil Wayne’s manager and lawyer since 2005 and is seeking his percentage from his settlement from Birdman and Cash Money Records. 

Lil Wayne reportedly refused to show up for a deposition regarding the settlement in August 2021. Sweeny claimed the Louisiana native instructed his team not to provide a date to reschedule the deposition. At the time, he said he believed Weezy was stalling until a judge dismissed his $20 million lawsuit, adding the suit was frivolous.  

After the recent appellate court judgment, Harris said he was pleased “that the appellate court rejected Lil Wayne’s cynical attempt to avoid paying Ronald Sweeney for the work that Mr. Sweeney did for him,’ as per Law.com. “Mr. Sweeney will vigorously pursue his claims for payment and require Lil Wayne to appear in court to answer for his actions.” 

Chrisean Rock Accuses Blueface Of Messing Up Their Money By Beefing Online 

Blueface and Chrisean Rock took their constant fighting to social media this week, but the “Baddies South” star claims beefing online will affect their bag.  

The Cali native took to Twitter on Tuesday (Jan. 18) to share a few musings with his followers. “The most I can do Ina relationship is 80-20,” he began before adding, “100-0 is crazy work.”  

He then offered some “food for thought,” questioning Chrisean Rock’s loyalty over her refusal to fight her family members over him.  

“Rock didn’t fight or attempt to fight anyone in her family for me,” he tweeted. According to Blueface, Chrisean said she disagrees with fighting her relatives. However, Blue claims she volunteers him to fight his family members “when put in the same uncomfortable position.” 

“That’s crazy work,” he continued. Stand on yo principles or be held accountable.” 

Blueface was likely referring to him almost coming to blows with his brother, as seen on a recent episode of the couple’s reality show Crazy In Love. The siblings squared up with each other before security intervened.

As Blueface is one of only two people she follows, Chrisean Rock spotted the tweet. She accused the “Thotiana” hitmaker of using her as “bait” for people to bash her and told him to pull up.  

“Here you go … 5…4…3…2…1,” she replied. “Not finna beef with a n#### on Twitter pull up. Im not Finna have u use me as bait n let you side with people dat hate me.”  

She then told Blueface to “Leave Chrisean out of the Twitter finger s###.” She also said Blue isn’t concerned about her mental or spiritual health, adding he breaks her down “bit by bit” when she’s feeling depressed.  

Chrisean then pointed out that they make money together as a couple. “The last thing I need is us crashing out on the socials knowing we broken up. You subbing knowing we ain’t our best selves,” she penned. “I just know I’m up next n I’m bringing yo ass wit me 🖕🏽😅” 

However, the couple may have called it quits once again. Chrisean returned to Twitter a few hours later with some emotional lyrics and a broken heart emoji. Check out their tweets below.

Antonio Brown Teases New Song “Do What I Want” Following Snapchat Suspension For Explicit Pics Of Ex 

Antonio Brown made headlines this week after allegedly sharing a very explicit image on social media.  

The ex-Buccaneers player began trending Tuesday (Jan. 17) after allegedly posting a photo of the mother of his children performing a sex act on him. The photo was taken down. However, social media users say the snap featured AB in bed with Chelsie Kyriss.  

The mother of the former NFL wide receiver’s children took to her Instagram account after Antonio Brown went viral. She claims that despite repeatedly asking her ex not to share their intimate photos, he refuses. 

“Very well aware of what’s being posted on snap,” Chelsie Kyriss wrote on her Instagram Story. “I am not in control of his actions. I have asked multiple times to have this part of our past relationship to remain private but he refuses.” 

She says she reported AB’s account to Snapchat. Nonetheless, the social media platform “is allowing him to repost.” 

Kyriss then apologized to any children who viewed the athlete as a role model while pointing out she also has kids to protect. “I am very sorry for any of your kids that follow him and used to look at him as a role model. I do not condone these actions as you are aware I have kids in involved as well,” the post concluded.  

Sometime after the post went up, a Snapchat spokesperson told TMZ Sports that Antonio Brown’s account has now been suspended. They also confirmed the incident is being investigated. Snapchat pointed to their strict Community Guidelines that “prohibit sexually explicit content and bullying or harassment of any kind.” 

Antonio Brown Teases New Song

While Antonio Brown has not responded to the suspension nor to Chelsie Kyriss, he has been active on Twitter.  

While it’s unclear why Brown allegedly posted the explicit f####### photo, he’s been active on social media and even has a new single on the way.  

“Somewhere between psy·chot·ic and i·con·ic” Antonio Brown tweeted amid the controversy. “What more Can I SAY NOW.” 

AB also shared a pre-save link for his new song, “Do What I Want,” although he gave no upcoming release date. 

Lil Tjay’s Attorney Reportedly Claims NYPD Targeted The Rapper In Unlawful Search  

Lil Tjay was arrested in the Bronx on Monday for an alleged weapons violation, but his legal rep says cops shouldn’t have searched him in the first place.  

The “Beat The Odds” hitmaker was with four friends when cops stopped the Cadillac Escalade they were riding in, reportedly over the SUV’s tinted windows and missing front license plate. Lil Tjay was said to be en route to film a music video with fellow NYC rapper Ice Spice.  

According to a New York Post report, cops confiscated four guns during the traffic stop and arrested Lil Tjay and the four others inside the car with him. The Bronx-born rapper and two others from the vehicle were charged with criminal possession of a weapon. Sources say he was still in custody on Tuesday, waiting to go before a judge. 

https://twitter.com/_FMHipHop/status/1615125485020749824?s=20&t=pfj3ue5mrMHNsaHRWWgamA

However, according to his attorney, the search was not legal, and Lil Tjay should never have been arrested. Attorney Dawn Florio told TMZ Lil Tjay was just a passenger and not the driver of the vehicle. She also pointed out several others were inside the SUV with Lil Tjay. According to Florio, cops gave no reason for the search.  

Furthermore, she says the car was parked legally, and cops had no right to arrest the artist. Florio also claimed the gun the NYPD seized does not belong to Lil Tjay.  

The attorney believes authorities targeted Tjay, tipped off by the social media posts he and Ice Spice shared to promote the “Gangsta Boo” music video shoot.  

The “Munch” rapper also reportedly had her own run-in with the law on Monday, although she was not taken into custody. According to police records, Ice Spice was in a car with Markus Grisham, 34. He was arrested and charged with criminal possession of a weapon. 

Gangsta Boo Was Working On A Book & Album Before Dying

I wonder what would happened if Gangsta Boo had lived. According to the streets, Lola Mitchell was working on her first book. I am not certain the nature of the book, but I would imagine it was a memoir or autobiography. She was a very interesting person with a very interesting story. She is not JUST the Three 6 Mafia as promoted. I know DJ Paul said he “created” her, but that’s a big no. I mean, they clearly put her on, but she brought herself to the table.

Anyway, this book would have been great.

 We also know that Boo was working on her Magnum Opus, The BooPrint. The album was supposed to be her “Blueprint.” I am pretty sure she would have totally reestablished herself in the current times. But she made it clear: this was her time. She did the song with GloRilla and was getting her respect in a major way.

In our last full interview, she said she was going to make this a classic.

Gangsta Boo:

BooPrint, that has to have the perfect layout. It just got to make sense. So, I don’t want to rush drop a project and name its The BooPrint. So, I just got to make sure that title is set in stone. And it’s the time it’s classic.”

Anyway, I wonder what the status of both projects is. I would love to get both so maybe they can make it a package deal.

Anyway, here is that interview:

Tory Lanez Lawyer Suggests “Numerous Errors” Were Likely Made In Trial

Tory Lanez hired a new lawyer named Jose Baez in hopes of overturning a shooting conviction.

Baez discussed his client’s case during a TMZ Live appearance on Tuesday (January 17). The attorney, who famously represented Casey Anthony, aimed to help Tory Lanez as much as possible.

“I certainly wish I had come in sooner as opposed to later,” Baez said. “Unfortunately, this is the way it is, but he’s got me now. And I’m certainly willing to give him everything I have. And hopefully, we’ll get the best result possible for him.”

A jury found Tory Lanez guilty of shooting Megan Thee Stallion at a trial in December 2022. The Canadian artist was convicted on charges of assault with a semiautomatic firearm, carrying a loaded unregistered firearm in a vehicle and discharging a firearm with gross negligence.

Tory Lanez awaits sentencing in the case. He faces up to 22 years and eight months in prison.

Baez didn’t mention any specific mistakes that warranted an appeal in the Tory Lanez case. The attorney addressed the trial in general terms while hinting at the likelihood of errors.

“I would say that there’s probably a significant chance that there are numerous errors that are within the system and within this case that should be explored and see if perhaps the results would’ve been different should it have gone the other way,” he said.

Tory Lanez’s current legal team includes Baez, David Kenner and Matthew Barhoma. They replaced George Mgdesyan and Shawn Holley.

Janet Jackson Accused Of Stiffing Ex-Business Managers; Her Lawyer Scoffs At Lawsuit

A creditor sued Janet Jackson for allegedly not paying her former business managers.

According to The Blast and Radar Online, Creditors Adjustment Bureau filed a lawsuit against Janet Jackson in an attempt to collect a $238,593.88 debt. The creditor said the singer owes money to David Weise and Associates for a business management deal signed in 2017.

Janet Jackson’s lawyer Ronald Richards responded to the accusations in a statement to Radar Online. Richards claimed his client settled the debt years ago.

“We have been working with a distant former manager who referred a bill to collections that was resolved years ago due [to] some errors that were made with [Jackson’s] account,” Richards asserted. “If the case was assigned for collections and they are suing as the assignee, they will be in for a big surprise as the claim is past the statute of limitations and was resolved years ago before the firm was bought out.”

Richards planned to pursue a cross-complaint against the management firm on behalf of Janet Jackson. The lawyer downplayed the lawsuit, speculating the firm went to collections based on “weak claims” in an effort to avoid expenses.

“This looks like one of those cases as they were talking to me recently and when they couldn’t respond to my inquiries and questions, it looks like they gave up and sent it to collections,” Richards said. “Janet Jackson pays all of her vendors and holds them to a high standard of care. She will not pay for managers that do not perform according to the contract or have charged her for fees improperly.”

The creditor is seeking $238,593.88 plus 10 percent interest. The alleged debt was due in February 2021.

Cardi B Lucks Out With Lenient Judge After Failing To Do Community Service

A New York judge gave Cardi B more time to complete court-mandated community service stemming from an assault case.

According to TMZ, Cardi B received an extension to perform 15 hours of community service on Tuesday (January 17). The judge set a new deadline for March 1.

“Personally and professionally, Cardi is dedicated to community service and charitable endeavors,” her lawyer Drew Findling told TMZ. “She therefore appreciates the court giving her until March 1st to complete her community service commitment in Queens, New York.”

Last year, Cardi B pleaded guilty to third-degree assault and second-degree reckless endangerment for her role in a 2018 strip club brawl. She was sentenced to 15 hours of community service in September 2022.

“Part of growing up and maturing is being accountable for your actions,” she said. “As a mother, it’s a practice that I am trying to instill in my children, but the example starts with me. I’ve made some bad decisions in my past that I am not afraid to face and own up to. These moments don’t define me and they are not reflective of who I am now.”

Cardi B reportedly didn’t complete a single hour of community service before the judge extended the deadline. The Atlantic Records rapper was originally supposed to finish all 15 hours by January 17.

Iggy Azalea Shuts Down Rumor About Her OnlyFans Earnings

Iggy Azalea debunked a rumor claiming she made over $300,000 in her first 24 hours on OnlyFans.

The Australian rapper set the record straight after her rumored earnings appeared on various websites and social media accounts. Iggy Azalea didn’t disclose how much she made on OnlyFans, but she dismissed the $307,000 figure spreading online.

“Lol, Y’all just be saying s### to say s### at this point cause that number was pulled outta thin air,” she wrote on Twitter.

https://twitter.com/IGGYAZALEA/status/1615252554492805121

Hours later, Iggy Azalea said she will never reveal how much money she’s earning on OnlyFans. She reminded fans to not believe the rumored sum and thanked them for their support.

“With love. I won’t share what I make on OF, in the same way I didn’t share what I earned selling my music catalog,” she wrote. “amounts being reported don’t come from a valid source. Thanks to everyone supporting me. Crazy excited for where things go! Hot ass summer on the way!”

https://twitter.com/IGGYAZALEA/status/1615445308435009536

Iggy Azalea launched her OnlyFans on January 13. She joined the platform to release a mixed-media project titled Hotter Than Hell.

“Once I looked beyond the surface-level chatter about what it means to have an OnlyFans, I realized it was the perfect platform to launch a multimedia concept on,” she stated. “I feel excited about not having to worry about the overwhelming and creatively limiting censorship artists have to navigate when sharing work on other digital platforms.”

Lil Boosie’s Daughter Comes Out And The Internet Thinks It’s Karma

The internet is a beast! Everybody has something to say. And people like Boosie have something to say all the time.

Boosie has been criticized for taking a stance against the gay community and his specific comments about Dwayne Wade’s transgender daughter Zaya has caused folks to write him off. Now it seems as though his 21-year old daughter Poison Ivi has come out the closet with a woman. And, they seem to be madly in love! From what I understand, her being gay is not a shocker or a surprise to those in the know. It is for me though. Either way, I couldn’t care less – love who you want. And I don’t think most people would care either but, since Mr. BadAzz has had such a strong opinion on LGBTQ+ life, it’s become a headline.

On top of that, he has openly opined to the point where both Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade have clapped back at him. Gabby even suggested HE was gay. Anyway, the Internet called for people to go back and rub it in his face since he was so critical of Lil Nas X and others. Boosie also has commented that he would never attend his daughters wedding, if she were to marry a lesbian woman. The irony is crazy!

Is Boston Richey A Snitch? Somebody Pulls Out Paperwork!

What tf is going on?

The streets have always been a part of the rap game, but this HERE is getting out of control. So, Boston Richey is a upcoming rapper from Tallahassee, not Bean Town. He’s doing his thing in a most major way. But just as he starts to become a sensation, the allegations come out.

I am not sure, who 1090 Jake is but he has released several piece of paperwork for no apparent reason to allege that Boston Richey is a 2-time snitch. I have heard of a 2-time felon but never a 2-time snitch. Anyway, some are saying it is all CAP. But look at this video.

@bigbenny05

Now, there is a new interview with the co-defendant and he said there’s a misunderstanding of the finer details of the case in question. The was a grand theft auto case that resulted in some sort of telling. I cannot determine the full extent, but his mans ain’t too heated over it.

Kolly kept referring to a “misinterpretation” of the paperwork. What does that even mean? I could not tell you.

Honestly, I do not see where this is an issue. The old laws of the street are just that. The days of telling or interpreting snitching is now here. I am not of that life and therefore have no say so whatsoever. Those that do can have at it. I am a simple person that does not even make a right on red if there is a sign posted.

But, I find it very interesting that there is this war going on. If the co-dee does not care, why should we?

Lil Tjay & Ice Spice Both Had Trouble With The Cops On MLK Day

It seems like rapper Lil Tjay just can’t catch a break. After a pop out at a new Ice Spice video for her song “Gangsta Boo,” the artist was arrested in the Bronx for an alleged weapons violation.

It also seems like Ice Spice got into a little problem with the cops on the other side of town.

Lil Tjay was stopped by officers during a traffic stop around 4 p.m. on Monday, Jan. 16 because of his tinted windows and a missing front license plate. They further discovered a firearm in his Cadillac Escalade. As a result, the artist was booked on weapon possession.

Crime in NYC tweeted, “A 21-year-old Bronx rapper who calls himself Lil Tjay was arrested Monday, along with four friends, after cops found loaded firearms inside the Cadillac Escalade, he was riding in. They were pulled over because of the vehicle’s tinted windows and a missing front license plate.”

The New York Post says four guns were confiscated by police during the traffic stop at 183rd Street and Ryer Avenue .

Arrested officers say four others in the car were taken in, but only the artist and two others riding with him in the SUV were charged with criminal possession of a weapon.

Sources say he was still in custody on Tuesday.

As AllHipHop.com reported, Lil Tjay was a victim of a devasting shooting last summer that almost took his life. He has since recovered and has been getting back into the swing of things.

He blessed fans over the holiday, linking with his gal pal Ice Spice and giving out gifts of Thanksgiving grub to others.

The big-hair beauty was ironically in an altercation with police around the same time, on the same day, in a separate location with a similar charge.

According to police records, Markus Grisham, 34, who was in the car with Ice Spice was arrested and charged with criminal possession of a weapon of a 9-millimeter gun.

The femcee, whose real name is Isis Gaston, was not taken into custody.

EXCLUSIVE: 50 Cent’s Penis Enlargement Lawsuit Grows: He’s Now Suing The Shade Room

50 Cent wants an apology and money from The Shade Room for exacerbating the penile implant saga. According to court docs obtained by AllHipHop, 50 Cent has filed a lawsuit against Perfection Plastic Surgery & MedSpa (again) as well as The Shade Room.

As the docs explain: “This case is about the abuse of a popular entertainer and businessman’s act of goodwill by an unscrupulous business owner for her own economic gain, and by a gossip tabloid intent on driving clicks and ad revenue at the expense of the truth.”

https://www.instagram.com/p/B8HH3yIHMc1/?hl=en

50 Cent maintains Perfection Plastic Surgery founder Angela Kogan stole a photo of him to promote her business under the false pretense he’d used the company’s services. He now says The Shade Room propelled the story forward by re-posting it and opening him up to “ridicule.” Among the comments on the post is: “50 Cent, can I see the before and after pics?”

50 Cent and his legal team claim: “By publishing the article and falsely stating or implying that Jackson had received plastic surgery procedures from Kogan or MedSpa, or the penile enhancement or other procedures described in the article, TSR committed a clear act of defamation.

“The article was particularly egregious because TSR believed it was publishing Jackson’s private medical information, which is not newsworthy or a subject of public interest. Kogan and MedSpa now claim that The Shade Room unilaterally took and used the photo of Jackson for the article without Kogan or MedSpa’s permission. Plaintiff separately seeks compensatory damages as well as injunctive relief, a retraction and an apology from TSR.”

https://www.instagram.com/p/ClNSdKItJ8X/?hl=en

50 Cent originally sued Kogan in September 2022. Last month, Kogan’s attorneys filed paperwork pointing the finger at The Shade Room.

“Plaintiff is not entitled to relief against Defendants as Plaintiff has failed to properly plead against the offending party; namely, The Shade Room,” Kogan’s lawyers wrote. “The Shade Room is the author of the article and pulled the photo from Kogan’s social media without Kogan’s permission or consent. The Shade Room is the publisher of the article, and Plaintiff has improperly applied the actions of The Shade Room to Defendant.”

50 Cent’s case will go to trial in July 2023 if a settlement isn’t reached prior to proceedings.

Iggy Azalea Makes $300,000 The First 24 Hours She Is On OnlyFans

Australian rapper Iggy Azalea has made a killing with her debut on OnlyFans.

The chart-topper, despite her hesitancy to register to the platform, made more than a quarter million in 24 hours after launching on a profile on the site.

As AllHipHop.com reported, the “Fancy” rapper announced she was going to open her profile to her fans on Friday, Jan. 13. Her first video was her posing in bed.

The freaks and stalkers flooded to break out their credit cards to get a chance to peek at whatever she was offering. She made a whopping $300K on the first day, according to Capitalxtra.

The artist posted on social, “SURPRISE! I’m dropping a mixed media project called ‘Hotter Than Hell,’” adding, “You can get first look content + updates on my new OnlyFans account.”

“Admittedly, I never knew OnlyFans was a place where I could be creative, so I didn’t expect to be collaborating with them on my biggest project to date!”

She explained why she changed her mind about the platform, saying, “Once I looked beyond the surface-level chatter about what it means to have an OnlyFans, I realized it was the perfect platform to launch a multimedia concept on.”

Azalea then said, “excited about not having to worry about the overwhelming and creatively limiting censorship artists have to navigate when sharing work on other digital platforms.”

Rihanna ‘Loves Being A Mom’ & A$AP Rocky Is ‘A Great Dad’

An insider close to the international sensation Rihanna shared that she adores being a mother. From the looks of things, it kind of seems like she likes more than she loves being on top of the charts.

Hip-Hop has literally watched the 34-year-old Bajan beauty grow up right before our eyes. In an exclusive interview with People magazine, someone who knows the two said she and partner A$AP Rocky are happy and have been locked in on raising their 8-month-old son away from the spotlight of fame.

In fact, even though the child was born in May of 2022, AllHipHop.com reports, the couple just premiered the new baby to the public a few weeks ago.

Now someone that knows the two has shared sweet notions about them as parents.

“Rihanna loves being a mom. She is obsessed with her baby boy,” said the source, who added that the Harlem native is “very involved as well and a great dad.”

Rihanna and A$AP Rocky met in 2012 and are rumored to have started dating off and on since 2013. But by 2018, the two were spotted out pretty regularly and people knew they were an item, but they did not confirm they were a couple until November 2020.
