Kool G Rap’s Next Project Is Going To Be Fire

By: illseedCategory: Rumors

Kool G Rap is one of the greatest leaders of all time. Sometimes he gets overlooked when they make these lists, but make no mistake about it, he’s a goat.

Well, I have been privileged enough to find out what he’s working on next and I think it’s going to be awesome. He has a project that’s coming out with .38 Spesh, the rapper from Buffalo. 38 Spesh has been doing his thing as well, producing hard-core hip-hop for us rap fiends. He works a lot with Griselda, especially Benny The Butcher.

The two of them are coming back with “Son Of G Rap II,” the sequel to the dope album, which came out a couple years ago. At the time of this writing, I do not know when the album is going to drop or anything, but I do know that they are working on it. I am thinking this is going to be amazing, because the first one was really dope too.

Kool G Rap also has a project that’s soon to drop called Last of a Dying Breed. That one was engineered by producer, Domingo, who has production credits from everybody-Big Pun, Fat Joe, KRS-1, Rakim, Ras Kass, Joell Ortiz, Crooked i, Chris Rivers, Eminem and even Shaquille O’Neal! So, stay tuned for that. He also recorded the whole original Son Of G Rap album! I wonder if he is working on this one too!

Check out our last interview with Domingo!

By: Yohance Kyles (@HUEYmixwitRILEY)Category: News

Jarad “Juice Wrld” Higgins passed away on December 8, 2019, at the age of 21. The “Lucid Dreams” hitmaker left behind many family members, fans, and friends such as fellow Chicago native G Herbo.

Montreality caught up with G Herbo at Rolling Loud New York for an on-camera interview. The conversation included the rap star, formerly known as Lil Herb, reflecting on his personal relationship with Juice Wrld.

“The friendship was everything. It was a beautiful friendship. That’s my brother and I loved him dearly, while he was here,” expressed G Herbo. “[Juice Wrld] felt that love and I felt the love that he had for me, while he was here.”

The 26-year-old rhymer added, “Every day, I make sure that I hold on to his legacy as much as possible. That’s important to me. That’s somebody that I looked at as a pure soul… As far as music, our relationship didn’t really have anything to do with music, that was my brother… Everything that I shared with him was special, like a bond, a brother.”

Prior to his passing, Juice Wrld released the 2018 album Goodbye & Good Riddance and the 2019 album Death Race for Love. His first posthumous project, Legends Never Die, arrived in 2020. Fighting Demons dropped in December 2021.

The RIAA certified Goodbye & Good Riddance as 3x-Platinum in 2021. Death Race for Love and Legends Never Die crossed the 2x-Platinum mark that same year. Juice Wrld also scored a Platinum plaque for the collaborative effort Wrld on Drugs with Future.

G Herbo’s catalog contains the studio LPs Humble Beast (2017), Still Swervin (2019), PTSD (2020), and 25 (2021). Juice Wrld and Herbo worked together on songs such as “Never Scared” off Still Swervin and “PTSD” off PTSD. The latter track also featured Lil Uzi Vert, and Chance the Rapper.

During the Montreality interview, G Herbo spoke about making music with Juice Wrld before he died. The Republic recording artist stated, “One of our songs just got leaked and I don’t even remember the song. I don’t even remember recording it… We have a lot of songs like that.”

Kanye West To Justin Bieber: Get Your Girl Before I Get Mad

By: Yohance Kyles (@HUEYmixwitRILEY)Category: News

Kanye “Ye” West’s social media war has expanded to include Pop superstar Justin Beiber and his wife, Hailey Bieber. Ye used his Instagram account to deliver a message to the celebrity power couple.

Over the last several days, Kanye West defended his decision to wear a controversial “White Lives Matter” shirt at his Yeezy fashion show in Paris. He even took aim at Black Lives Matter by calling the entire social justice movement a “scam” and declaring BLM “dead.”

Kanye West also caught heat for his online bashing of Vogue contributor Gabriella Karefa-Johnson after she chastised him for his “White Lives Matter” publicity stunt. In response, Hailey Bieber backed Karefa-Johnson against West’s treatment of the writer.

“My respect for you runs deep my friend!” Hailey Bieber posted about Gabriella Karefa-Johnson on her Instagram Story. “To know is to adore you and to work with you is an honor, the most kind, the most talented, the most fun, the most chic.”

Kanye West Fires Back At Hailey Bieber

It appears Kanye West did not take Hailey Bieber’s social media comments too well. The G.O.O.D. Music label leader lashed out at the professional model and her husband on his own Instagram page.

Part of a lengthy Instagram message included West writing, “Because you’re all f###### programmed sheep aaaaaand those boots Gab was wearing were f###### traaaasssh. But I’m sure John Legend still wants a pair. And Justin Bieber, get your girl before I get mad.”

EGOT-winning entertainer John Legend also caught a stray shot in Ye’s Instagram rant. The former friends/collaborators apparently fell out over West’s years-long support for former President Donald Trump. Legend has been an outspoken critic of the Republican politician.

Numerous Celebrities Have Come Out Against Ye’s “White Lives Matter” Shirt

Hailey Bieber was not alone in publically expressing support for Gabriella Karefa-Johnson. Vogue released a statement accusing Kanye West of targeting and bullying the magazine’s global fashion editor at large.

Additionally, Hip Hop figures such as Sean “Diddy” Combs, Jaden Smith, Boosie Badazz, and Jason Lee denounced West’s “White Lives Matter” apparel. That slogan is widely considered a rallying cry for far-right white supremacists as a way to minimize the Black Lives Matter movement for racial equality.

Meanwhile, Kanye West has not slowed down his attacks against his detractors and Black Lives Matter. The 45-year-old contrarian shared a quote by Tamika Palmer, the mother of Breonna Taylor, where Palmer labeled a local BLM chapter to be “fraud.” Louisville, Kentucky police officers fatally shot Taylor in her home after conducting a botched raid in March 2020.

Ebro Darden Calls Out DJ Akademiks: You Popping All That Sh*t

By: Yohance Kyles (@HUEYmixwitRILEY)Category: News

There has been a lot of conversation in Hip Hop lately about blackballing. Specifically, DJ Akademiks accused Ebro Darden of banning DaBaby from influential platforms like Apple Music and Hot 97.

“DaBaby’s last project in 2020, Blame it on Baby, sold 124K first week. His new project after being blackballed by Ebro, Apple Music is scheduled to do less than 20K,” tweeted DJ Akademiks last month.

The host of Spotify’s Off The Record podcast continued, “Now yall understand my Ebro convo… DSPs control who is hot and who is not. Fall out of favor with them… UR DONE.”

Ebro Darden addressed DJ Akademik’s comments at the time, pointing out that he has no control over other streaming services such as Spotify. Apple Music’s Global Editorial Head of Hip Hop and R&B had more to say about Ak during an interview with Baller Alert.

“I don’t have that power,” responded Ebro when questioned if he has ever blackballed anyone in the music industry. “If the fans ain’t coming to your concerts, and the fans aren’t streaming your music – the music is on every platform. If the fans really want to go stream your s###, they type in your name and stream your s###.”

Ebro Darden also directly called out DJ Akademiks. The 47-year-old radio personality stated, “I would go over to Akademiks and be like, ‘You popping all that s###. What you gotta say now?’ But he don’t come outside.”

Later in the interview, Ebro Darden added, “Akademiks has an agenda. Why is Akademiks so concerned specifically about those four artists? Ask yourself that question.”

Darden also asked, “Why is [Akademiks] so concerned about NBA YoungBoy, DaBaby, Tory Lanez, and Tekashi 6ix9ine? Why those four? Why? Out of all the artists. So he’s got an agenda. Or he’s on somebody’s payroll. Or both.”

Several rappers came to DaBaby’s defense by suggesting the blackballing speculation was true. Meek Mill and Boosie Badazz both claimed the so-called powers-that-be are treating the Baby on Baby 2 album creator unfairly.

However, “Handsomer” rapper Russ seemed to align with Ebro Darden’s views on the topic. Russ pushed back on the narrative that DSPs have all the control over what songs become successful. Plus, DaBaby reportedly had trouble selling tickets to a recent concert which led some people to believe his fame is waning.

GloRilla was one of the big winners at the 2022 BET Hip Hop Awards. The Memphis native defeated Baby Keem, Blxst, Doechii, Nardo Wick, Saucy Santana, and Fivio Foreign for Best Breakthrough Hip Hop Artist.

Apparently, some social media users took issue with GloRilla winning that honor over New York City’s Fivio Foreign. However, the B.I.B.L.E. album creator defended Big Glo’s victory.

“I did not get robbed,” tweeted Fivio Foreign on Wednesday afternoon. “GloRilla won cuz she deserved it [and I’m] happy for her 💙.”

Collective Music Group recording artist GloRilla broke out this year with the “F.N.F. (Let’s Go)” single. The Hitkidd-produced track peaked at #42 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Additionally, GloRilla scored a Top 10 hit with “Tomorrow 2” featuring Cardi B. That all-female collaboration debuted in the Hot 100’s #9 spot earlier this week.

Fivio Foreign also had a standout 2022. In June, the Brooklyn Drill rhymer earned a Gold plaque from the RIAA for “City of Gods” with Kanye West and Alicia Keys.

Diddy Urges Fans Not To Wear Kanye West’s “White Lives Matter” Shirt: “It’s Not A Joke” 

By: London JennnCategory: News

Diddy has clarified his earlier comments regarding Kanye West’s “White Lives Matter,” designs after his remarks were perceived as support. 

During an interview with The Breakfast Club on Wednesday (Oct. 5), Diddy explained that while he wasn’t excusing Kanye, the rapper turned fashion designer is often misunderstood.  

Despite stating, “It really ain’t no time for no other lives matter but the tribe,” and “You have to be unapologetically Black,” some misconstrued Diddy’s remarks.  

Diddy Says Don’t Buy Kanye West’s “White Lives Matter” Designs

He took to Instagram to share a video expounding his views on Kanye West and the “White Lives Matter” slogan.  

Diddy began stating that while he doesn’t address every bit of Internet chatter, he felt compelled to clarify his remarks regarding Ye’s “White Lives Matter” designs. “I’ve always been there and I will always support my brother Kanye as a free thinker,” Diddy began. “But the ‘White Lives Matter’ t-shirt. I don’t rock with it. I’m not with it.” 

The Hip-Hop mogul went on to say that the controversy is not a “joke” like the press and the fashion industry are making out.  

“Right now, all America has planned for us is poverty, incarceration and death,” Diddy continued. He acknowledged that while all life matters, the “Black Lives Matter” movement is not to be played with. “So, before I could get to any other lives matter … that Black lives matter, don’t play with it.” 

Diddy then doubled down and urged fans not to buy or promote the controversial shirt. “Don’t wear the shirt, don’t buy the shirt. don’t play with the shirt. It’s not a joke,” he concluded. Check out his comments in full below.

Kanye West apparently saw Diddy’s remarks as “support for standing my ground.” He shared an article by the Daily Mail, writing “we broke the trauma mind control” and “nobody is trauma drunk no more.”  

Ye also boasted about the success of his “paradigm shifting T-shirt,” stating that it was the only thing worth talking about from Paris Fashion Week. Check out Kanye’s latest musings below.

By: London JennnCategory: News

While Latto is celebrating her win at the BET Hip-Hop Awards, where she scooped the top spot in the Song of the Year category for “Big Energy,” Kodak Black is furious, and wants fans to boycott the rap platform.  

The Florida native was in the running alongside Latto for “Super Gremlin,” the hit single from his No. 1 album, Back for Everything.

According to Kodak Black, Latto won in a women empowerment “plot” orchestrated against him by BET. He took to social media on Wednesday to call out the network for giving the award to Latto, who he mockingly called “Frappuccino.” 

“This whole s### looked like a damn plot,” he said during an Instagram Live session. “They probably hollerin’ at BET, like don’t give him that s###. I told [people] weeks ago. Watch they finna play with me and give it to Frappuccino.” 

Latto Responds To Kodak Black

Latto clearly caught wind of her former collaborator‘s comments, taking to her own social media platforms with a classy response. She posted a series of photos of herself with the caption “Frappuccino,” on Instagram before taking to Twitter to pose a question. “What kinda Frappuccino I look like I taste like??? 👅,” the “It’s Giving” rapper penned.

Nonetheless, Kodak Black had more to say on the subject. He upped the ante from his previous comments calling for a BET boycott. He also said the award should have gone to Glorilla instead of “that hating ass mutt.” 

“The Woman Empowerment S### Kool ! Don’t Take Nun From Nobody But You Still Gotta Work For It!” he began. “Don’t Jus Simply Give It To Somebody Kuz They A Woman !!!!! If That’s The Case Y’all Shoulda Gave Song Of The Year To Glorilla Not That Hating Ass Mutt 🐶” 

He then tagged Connie Orlando, executive vice president at BET, and called for her sacking. Finally, Kodak Black stated, “Everyone Needa Boycott,” BET. “Y’all Lame Af & Y’all Not Really For The People Fr ! BET WATERED DOWN !!!,” he added. Check out his comments in full at the end of the page.

Kanye West Reaffirms “White Lives Matter” Slogan: “They Do” 

By: London JennnCategory: News

Despite the hefty backlash, Kanye West is standing by his decision to design and wear a “White Lives Matter” logo on designs for his YZY SZN 9 fashion show. 

The rapper turned fashion mogul had the internet in a frenzy after photos from Monday’s Paris Fashion Week show surfaced online. Ye was pictured alongside controversial far right-wing commentator Candace Owens – a vocal critic of the “Black Lives Matter” movement. Kanye and Owens both wore the “White Lives Matter” shirt, as did several YZY runway models.  

Kanye West became the No.1 trending topic on Twitter, with fans sharing their opinions, many critical of the move. Jaden Smith, who was reportedly at the show, walked out and condemned Ye online. “I Don’t Care Who’s It Is If I Don’t Feel The Message I’m Out, ” he penned. “Black Lives Matter.”  

Boosie Badazz and Van Lathan also called out Kanye over the controversial shirt, alongside many others.  

Kanye West Responds to “White Lives Matter” Backlash  

As with most of his recent controversies, Kanye West took to Instagram to respond. He first shared a message in his Stories: “Everyone knows that Black Lives Matter was a scam.” Ye then shared a photo of the “White Lives Matter” shirt and doubled down on the message in the caption.  

“Here’s my latest response when people ask me why I made a tee that says white lives matter… THEY DO,” wrote Ye on Wednesday.  

Instagram Kanye West

One person in Kanye West’s corner is Diddy, who said Ye is often “misconstrued,” although he added, ‘ain’t no time for no other lives matter but the tribe.” 

“Kanye, my boy, is a super, super, super free thinker,” Diddy said during an interview with The Breakfast Club. “A lot of times what he means is like misconstrued and sometimes just… I’m not making excuses. I’m just saying that if he did it, that’s the way he thinks, and so I understand white lives do matter but it’s not that. That was our slogan. That wasn’t our slogan to go share with nobody else. That’s the only message.” 

Diddy then highlighted disproportionate rates of African Americans incarcerated and living in poverty. 

“It really ain’t no time for no other lives matter but the tribe,” he stated. “You have to be unapologetically Black and love your people and love your tribe first.”  

He continued, “We ain’t got no time for no internet ‘White Lives Matter’… we need to be focusing on ourselves. Let them White Lives themselves out.” Listen to his comments in full below.

Ice Spice Responds To Sex Tape Rumors

By: illseedCategory: Rumors

I wrote about it. I was shocked to see it, but Ice Spice is saying “It ain’t true.” A couple days ago Twitter was on fire, because Ice Spice supposedly had a sextape for all to see on the social network. As I said, I wasn’t about to post such filth on AHH. Nevertheless, it was crazy to see! Now, this supposed Ice Spice was seen in at least two capacities that I saw. Neither one gave a clear view of her unique face, but it did seem to have her unique hair.

Some people even suggested that it was Drake that did the leaking of this tape. Now, I definitely find that crazy. I do not think that Drizzy would leak his own privates for the world to see just to expose a fledgling rapper. Anyway, that is out.

She says this ain’t her in the sex tape.

I totally missed this yesterday. It seems like she ain’t tripping off it.

As nothing as this is, it did not stop people from having fun with it and I don’t mean playing with themselves.

David Biga Serves Change From A Floating Lemonade Stand

By: Staff WriterCategory: Music News

Since the release of Post Traumatic Growth, David Biga has demonstrated an ability to simplify complex ideas which have become apparent to an increasing number of supporters. With that ability in mind, we listened to his 4th project, Lemonade Stand.

Lemonade Stand is an eleven-track project, adding to David Biga‘s now four-album discography. The track list immerses listeners into Biga‘s life over the last couple of years. From lyrical mentions referring to relatable struggles and abstract dialogue referring to dealing with the stresses caused by the pandemic, each track provides insight into how Biga turned some of life’s lemons into lemonade.

It is also worth mentioning that there is at least one song for every type of hip-hop listener, as the album branches out into several different sub-genres. Lemonade Stand appears to be a symbolic representation of Biga’s choice to love himself and each song reminds listeners of their ability to do the same. 

The album artwork created by Ghanaian artist @themanyphacedgod (Samuel Blankson) portrays David Biga standing behind a lemonade stand floating in a body of water. With a closer look, this water appears to symbolize depression in the form of drowning by highlighting two hands floating underwater holding up two glasses of lemonade next to a sign reading “Lemons 4 Change”.

Although the album has a simple title, Biga and his Lemonade Stand goes much deeper than a simple glass of lemonade. The Chicago, Illinois, and Dayton, Ohio-based record label Novelist Music Group posted the artwork on Instagram with the caption: “An airplane crashes in the middle of the ocean. Soon after, a floating lemonade stand comes to the surface. It’s been a while, can I get you some lemonade?” 

We follow @DavidBiga on Instagram and in his own words he wrote,

“My 4th studio album, Lemonade Stand – is now available. Can I get you some Lemonade”

Mase Accuses Diddy Of Being High Following Diss

By: Justin IveyCategory: News

Mase responded to Diddy after the Hip Hop mogul dissed the former Bad Boy Records artist on The Breakfast Club.

Diddy called Mase a fake pastor and mentioned an alleged $3 million debt on the radio show. Diddy targeted Mase while discussing accusations about stealing money from artists.

Mase addressed the comments in a post on Instagram. He claimed Diddy was mad because the rapper-turned-minister wouldn’t accept a fake apology.

“Yo, you see how people act when you won’t let them come on stage and give they fake apology so they can promote that little wack song,” Mase said.

He added in the post’s caption, “He just [angry] I did not want him to come on stage with me to give his fake apology. You’re high chill out! I’M GOOD LOVE.”

Diddy felt he was unfairly criticized for not paying artists enough. He challenged anyone, including Mase, to prove the record executive owes them money.

“I did one album with Mase,” Diddy said. “One album! How much money do you think I owe this guy? One album? And then he became a fake pastor and went and conned people? And then y’all gonna let him throw dirt on the god’s name?”

Listen to Diddy below.

He was just the same big ass bully.”

Leslie Jones also discussed a time when Suge Knight was interested in her cousin. The comedian remembered being so upset she stopped speaking to her cousin for weeks.

“He liked my cousin and I was so mad,” she said. “I didn’t speak to my cousin for a month because Suge liked her. And I was like, ‘That’s f##### up. You know I was in love with him. Why would you take him from me?’ And she was like, ‘B####, I literally don’t want him. I don’t wanna f### with him! Are you stupid?’”

Styles P Announces Retirement – With A Catch

By: illseedCategory: Rumors

Without a question, Styles P is one of the best rappers ever to touch the mic. For decades, he has had the consistency of a real master. And his solo work holds up with just about anybody. Last year, he dropped a new group effort with Havoc, Wreckage Manner. Well, some stuff is about to change with a Gangster-slash-Gentleman.

He has announced his retirement from solo work. That kind of sucks, but the good thing is he revealed that he will continue with music with The Lox. I know SHEEK and Jada are relieved! I know Jada is revered, but Styles has the biggest solo body of work out of the three of them. He explained his reasons in an IG post for all to see.

ALSO READ: The Lox: The Champs Are Still Here, But Evolving Past Verzuz

I say this with a deeper over standing of self and evaluating the status of my own mental health. I have noticed I have become less spiritually healthy than I used to be . I believe I have run myself down a tad bit over the past few years. Being a super hard working emcee and a health advocate. For one, I’m not really that great at multi tasking it’s actually my drive that keeps me going and that slack falls back on my family, business partners and co workers. I thought about it harder and came to the conclusion that I need to walk away from my solo career period ( I think I gave y’all enough ). I will just do LOX s### and a feature here and there if it moves me . I’m about to be a board member on several very important boards (I am not at liberty to mention right now and a few other ventures that I also care not to mention right now ). My main focus is trying to push @farmacyforlife to the next level. I’ve realized I slacked and never adequately traveled to the juices bk location , the fordham location and barely go to the Tremont location. This isn’t fair to my partners nor is it inspirational to the youth that are watching. It’s also not fair to myself to be honest with you . For that I apologize. As a result, I am stepping away from @juicesforlife as a co founder and owner . I believe, Rather I know , the people are In good hands with my partners and brothers they have the same passion and drive and care for the people as I do .. so y’all good . Of course you will see me In the spots and of course I’m going to keep pushing the movement when it comes to health . I just gotta go figure a better way to do it and not harm myself mentally nor inconvenience others anymore. As far as any juices for life business goes I will plug you with one of my partners and the job will get done! The people need their health. Never forget, the message is always bigger than the messenger!!! So if you know the way, spread it . That is all that counts!!

Zumbi Homicide Case Not Closed Despite Reports

By: Justin IveyCategory: News

Authorities are still investigating the death of Zion I’s Zumbi.

Zumbi’s mother Carolyn Gaines addressed the status of her son’s case after The Mercury News published a story claiming the investigation was closed. The article said his death had been ruled a homicide but no criminal charges would be filed.

Gaines denied the case was closed in a statement to AllHipHop. Zumbi’s mother revealed she spoke with Alameda County District Attorney Nancy O’Malley about the matter on Wednesday (October 5).

“Nothing has been finalized on criminal charges related to my son’s death,” Gaines said. “I feel assured and confident that this case is not over and criminal charges remain likely. I am holding steadfast that the institutions responsible for my son’s death will be held accountable.”

Gaines’ lawyer Elizabeth Grossman also talked to the district attorney.

“We are not sure who is responsible for the misinformation in the article, but I spoke directly with Nancy O’Malley today and a final decision has not been made,” Grossman said.

According to The Mercury News, Zumbi died after being restrained by hospital staffers and handcuffed by police. His death was ruled a homicide by Chief Forensic Pathologist Dr. Vivian Snyder.

The late rapper’s family is seeking criminal charges for his death. A spokesperson for the district attorney told the Mercury News “no criminal charges were to be filed” in an article published on September 30.

Zumbi, whose real name was Stephen Gaines, passed away in August 2021. The Zion I member is survived by his three sons.

Azealia Banks Slams “Dusty Ass” Female Rappers For Supporting Nicki Minaj; Gives Props To Cardi B

By: Kershaw St. JawnsonCategory: News

Rapper Azealia Banks took time out from shopping at a Home Depot to address the recent social media fight between Cardi B, JT, and Akbar V. 

You’ve had to be under a rock to have not at least heard of the nasty back and forth that the ladies in rap music have been engaging. Most of the mudslinging has happened on Twitter, where one might say the girls are virtually vaseline-ing up their faces and digitally discarding their earrings.

In a video from her Instagram Live, Azealia Banks called the young ladies in the mainstream “chickenhead a## f##king b##ches” for joining Nicki Minaj’s crusade against Cardi B.

Banks said, “The fact that this b##ch that would not give a f##k about you on any other f##king day … never collab with you … never share her platform with you … is making all you other b##ches risk your own f##king platform … your own f##king s### … to do her dirty work … that this p##sy a## b##ch is too f##king scared to do … all of you b##ches look stupid.”

Azealia Banks called them some “Doja a## b##ches” for jumping on Nicki’s bandwagon. And Azealia reminded the other artists that she was more than just a female rapper. 

The Harlem native shared that she was a “talented musician” and she “would never mention” any of them to give them shine.

One of her pet peeves is that the girls coming at Cardi, in her opinion, were once “in Cardi’s face” but have jumped ship to be down with Nicki Minaj.

For her part, she believes she and Cardi have twin spirits— despite having beef in the past— and noted that Cardi is like so many girls that she grew up with in Washington Heights, a neighborhood a hop skip and a jump from the Bronx where the “W.A.P.” rapper is originally from.

In her extremely linear rant, Azealia clearly articulated why she thinks the pile-on approach of getting at the Bronx bombshell is corny. She addressed what she thinks is the underlined reason for the hate.

“The fact that all of y’all girls is letting y’all Spanish girl jealousy fly right now is so f##king dusty,” she said in disgust.

Azealia Banks ended her now virtual rant with a message for Cardi, telling her to “stop taking the bait,” reminding Cardi who she is.

“You did s### that f##king n##### in the game can’t even do. Like you got a diamond single. You got a Grammy,” she fumed. “This b##ch has been in the game, how many f##king years, and she had to share her first Grammy. That’s why she is f##king mad.”

“She’s mad ’cause she lost. Let her take that L,” Azealia’s IG live concluded.

Kanye West Expands His “War” To Khloé Kardashian; Claims Children Were Kidnapped

By: Justin IveyCategory: News

Kanye West squabbled with Khloé Kardashian after she defended her sister Kim Kardashian on Wednesday (October 5).

The dispute began when Kanye West scolded Gigi Hadid in wake of his “White Lives Matter” shirt controversy. ‘Ye complained about the model not supporting him when he accused the Kardashian family of keeping him away from his daughter on her birthday.

Khloé Kardashian responded to Kanye West’s latest rant in a comment on Instagram. She begged him to stop airing out Kim Kardashian and the rest of her family on social media.

“Ye, I love you,” she wrote. “I don’t want to do this on social media but YOU keep bringing it here. You are the father of my nieces and nephews and I’m trying to be respectful but please STOP tearing Kimberly down and using our family when you want to deflect.”

She continued, “Again with the birthday narrative. Enough already. We all know the truth and in my opinion, everyone’s tired of it. You know exactly where your children are at all times and YOU wanted separate birthdays. I have seen all of the texts to prove it. And when you changed your mind and wanted to attend, you came.”

Khloé Kardashian concluded her plea with an offer to talk to Kanye West in private.

“Like you have pointed out yourself, [Kim Kardashian] is the one taking care of your kids 80% of the time,” she wrote. “Please Leave her and the family out of it so that the kids can be raised peacefully. I come from a place of love and I am happy to continue this conversation privately if you wish.”

Kanye West fired back by calling the Kardashians liars. He kept complaining about his daughter’s birthday and brought up a similar grievance involving his youngest son.

“YOU ARE LYING AND ARE LIARS YALL BASICALLY KIDNAPPED CHICAGO ON HER BIRTHDAY SO SHE COULD REMEMBER HER FATHER NOT BEING THERE,” he wrote. “TRAV GAVE ME THE ADDRESS OF MY CHILDS PARTY THATS HOW YALL PLAY WITH BLACK FATHERS.”

Kanye West added, “YALL ALSO THREW A PARTY BEFORE PSALMS BIRTHDAY WHEN I WAS FLYING BACK FROM JAPAN TO BE THERE FOR HIS BIRTHDAY AND THE FIRST I HEARD ABOUT IT WAS SEEING PICS OF THE PARTY ON LINE ALSO I SHOULD SEE MY CHILDREN 100 % OF THE TIME BUT SINCE THERE’S A SEPARATION IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN 50% OF THE TIME YA’LL WOULDN’T HAVE PLAYED WITH DONDA LIKE THAT IN JESUS NAME.”

Kim Kardashian filed to divorce Kanye West in 2021. The former couple shares four children.

High School Football Team Hosts Slave Auction,” Cancels Season

By: illseedCategory: Rumors

It is universally accepted that kids do some stupid stuff. But what does it take to be so dumb that a bunch of dudes get together and decide to host a slave auction among some football players. This is “dumb jock” redefined.

So, folks, this is how it went down, if you have not already seen in other publications.

Cali’s River Valley High School football team staged a mock slave auction with three black students that said there I their undies and let it happen. They are calling it a “stunt” and a “prank, but I beg to differ.. All of this went down in a locker room, but somebody decided to tape it and release it.

The video has their faces blurred out, but the Black football players are standing with there twiddling their hands as people point at them, in an apparent effort to buy them.

Yuba City Unified School District Superintendent Doreen Osumni said this was highly offensive in a statement to CNN. DUH.

“Re-enacting a slave sale as a prank tells us that we have a great deal of work to do with our students so they can distinguish between intent and impact. They may have thought this skit was funny, but it is not; it is unacceptable and requires us to look honestly and deeply at issues of systemic racism. The recording clearly demonstrates that this situation was orchestrated and organized, which underscores my concern that students spent time contemplating this terrible act without the slightest regard that this action is hateful and hurtful.”

The football players that started the prank were suspended. They need to suspend the Black ones too, for being so damn dumb. Go read a book, you weirdoes.

This is definitely a “Sign The World Is Coming To An End.”

I want to talk to the parents! The kids! This is insane. What do you think?
