Kim Kardashian Finally Faces Bar Exam After Failing Baby Bar Three Times

By: London JennnCategory: News

Kim Kardashian sat for the California Bar Exam in late July 2025 after six years of legal apprenticeship and a long road that included multiple setbacks.

The two-day exam—widely regarded as one of the most difficult in the country—tested Kardashian’s knowledge through essays, performance tasks and multiple-choice questions.

She pursued the law office study route, an alternative to law school that allowed her to train under licensed attorneys. Kardashian passed the First-Year Law Students’ Examination, also known as the “baby bar,” on her fourth try in December 2021.

In May 2025, she marked the completion of her apprenticeship with a graduation ceremony surrounded by family and friends.

Unlike most bar candidates who lock themselves away for months of intense prep, Kardashian juggled her studies with a packed schedule that included filming, travel and appearances at high-profile events like Jeff Bezos’s wedding.

The California Bar Exam had a pass rate of 53.8% in July 2024. Results from the July 2025 exam are expected on November 7, with the California State Bar set to release them publicly on November 9.

Kardashian has been vocal about the hurdles she faced on her legal path, often crediting her mentors and family for their support.

Kim Kardashian Celebrates Passing Baby Bar

“I failed this exam 3 times in 2 years,” she wrote after passing the baby bar. “But I got back up each time and studied harder and tried again until I did it!!!”

Her legal ambitions are rooted in her work on criminal justice reform. She has helped advocate for clemency in several high-profile cases and has received recognition for her efforts in this area.

Meanwhile, Kardashian found herself at the center of online debate earlier this week after her 12-year-old daughter, North West, appeared in a TikTok video wearing a black corset top, denim mini skirt and platform boots during a family trip to Rome, Italy.

Critics called the outfit inappropriate for her age, with some urging Kardashian to “preserve her daughter’s innocence.”

Others pushed back, defending North’s right to express herself and calling out the judgmental tone of the backlash. “Weirdos,” one supporter wrote in response to the criticism.

North, who shares a TikTok account with her mother, confidently showed off her look in a video featuring her green-blue ombré pigtails.

600 Breezy Arrested In Wisconsin, Faces Extradition To Pennsylvania Amid RICO Rumors

By: London JennnCategory: News

600 Breezy was taken into custody in Wisconsin during a traffic stop on Tuesday (August 27) after authorities discovered an active extradition warrant tied to Pennsylvania, landing the Chicago rapper behind bars without bail.

Court documents confirm he was booked early that morning and is currently awaiting transfer to Pennsylvania.

The specifics of the warrant remain sealed, but online chatter quickly lit up with speculation that the case could involve a state-level RICO investigation. So far, no official confirmation has been made about the nature of the charges.

A video clip from his court appearance surfaced on Thursday (August 28), showing the rapper waiving his right to an extradition hearing and agreeing to be handed over to Pennsylvania authorities.

“I kinda know what it’s about,” he told the judge. “It’s something that’s really small.”

The judge and his attorney quickly advised him not to speak further on the matter, warning that anything he said could be used against him later.

At one point during the hearing, 600 Breezy glanced at a court document and asked the judge what “corrupt organization” meant.

The judge responded that he couldn’t explain the charge and offered a continuance to give the rapper more time to understand the allegations. But 600 Breezy declined, saying, “I been in this situation before.”

The court appearance didn’t go unnoticed online. Lil Zay Osama reposted the clip to his Instagram Story, mocking 600Breezy and writing, “Breezo the streets ain’t for u,” along with a jab that he was about to “tell it all” to the judge.

The two rappers have a long-standing feud rooted in personal drama and tensions within Chicago’s Hip-Hop scene.

600 Breezy remains in custody as of Thursday (August 28), awaiting extradition to Pennsylvania.

EXCLUSIVE: Cardi B Sued For Betraying Gang Code Over Megan Thee Stallion Collaboration

By: Grouchy Greg Watkins (@GrouchyGreg)Category: Exclusives

Cardi B was hit with an absurd lawsuit from a Michigan inmate who claimed she broke gang “rules” by teaming up with Megan Thee Stallion—and the judge tossed it almost immediately.

The inmate, who’s doing time in Michigan, filed a lawsuit from behind bars saying Cardi violated some gang code when she worked with Meg.

He claims he’s part of the Almighty Vice Lord Nation and says Cardi reps the Righteous United Blood Nation. According to him, neither group messes with “rats, snitches, [and] informants.”

He said that Cardi made music with Megan, who told police about Tory Lanez shooting her.

The guy said that the move went against the gang’s entire ‘no-snitch’ policy and that Cardi had basically betrayed their code by working with someone who had cooperated with the police.

He also tried to say Cardi used offensive language and racial slurs in her lyrics and that she misrepresented his culture. He wanted the court to step in and stop her from working with anyone who’s ever talked to the feds.

The judge was not even close to buying it. The court tossed the frivolous case with prejudice, which means it cannot be refiled.

The inmate is responsible for the $350 filing fee. The Michigan Department of Corrections will take 20% of his monthly prison account until it’s paid off.

Drake Addresses BBL Rumors & Sets Record Straight On Jail Time

By: London JennnCategory: News

Drake tackled two viral topics—BBL accusations and a brief jail stint in Sweden—during the debut episode of Bobbi Althoff’s “Not This Again” podcast on Tuesday (September 2).

The Toronto rapper didn’t dodge the internet’s long-running joke about his physique, sparked by a shirtless gym selfie he posted in June. When Althoff asked if he had undergone cosmetic surgery, Drake responded with a laugh: “People also say that I got a BBL. They call me ‘BBL Drizzy.’ I don’t know if my wagon looked crazy when I walked in here, but did it?”

He explained the image came right after a workout, saying, “Maybe I heightened the saturation or something on it.” Then he added, “I think I hit it too hard. They don’t look like that.”

The “BBL Drizzy” nickname took off after Metro Boomin dropped a diss track in 2024 referencing alleged body enhancements.

Later in the episode, Drake opened up about his 2022 arrest in Sweden, which he described as overblown and unnecessary.

Drake explained, “I spent a pretty long time in jail… nine hours.”

“We did a private party and one of the [police] officers, his girl came to the private party,” he said. “But they arrested me way too aggressive, and they arrested me for nothing.”

At the time, his team denied the arrest, calling it a misunderstanding. But in 2023, Drake posted documents and video footage confirming the incident.

Looking ahead to a concert in Sweden, Drake joked the same woman might show up again: “Oh yeah, his girl’s coming back out for sure,” he said, if he can track her down.

The full interview aired Tuesday (September 2) on the premiere of “Not This Again.”

Cardi B Explodes On Reporter Over Offset & Stefon Diggs Paternity Question

By: London JennnCategory: News

Cardi B lost her temper outside a Los Angeles courthouse on Tuesday (September 2) after a reporter pressed her with a personal question about whether Offset or Stefon Diggs fathered her rumored unborn child.

The Grammy-winning rapper had just exited the courtroom after winning a civil assault case when a reporter asked, “Do you foresee any paternity issues with Stefon Diggs?”

The question followed a reference to Offset “publicly bragging about getting you pregnant for the fourth time.”

Cardi was enraged. She snatched a pen from a fan and hurled it at the reporter, shouting, “Stop disrespecting me. Don’t disrespect me.”

Security quickly stepped in as she stormed off toward her vehicle.

Before leaving, she turned back to confront the reporter again: “Do you see women asking those types of questions to me? Why do you feel, as a man, you get to ask me those type of questions? Act like you have some manners. Your momma taught you, respect women.”

Once inside her SUV, Cardi addressed the rest of the press: “Y’all are not going to see me after that, and you can thank him,” she said. “I’m not playing around. I was very nice I was very kind … Nobody’s going to get that no more.”

Cardi had already addressed the rumors directly during an Instagram Live in August, shutting down a viewer who asked if she was pregnant. “No, you stupid b####,” she said. “I’m just out of breath ’cause I have asthma… Stop being funny in this b#### before you get blocked, b####. That’s a stupid comment; don’t put that on me.”

However, she later teased with a tweet: “But AM I?…” with an eyebrow-raising GIF, fueling further speculation.

The Bronx-born rapper filed for divorce from Offset in July 2024, shortly after announcing her third pregnancy.

Her relationship with NFL wide receiver Stefon Diggs became public in early 2025.

Mary J. Blige Loses Attempt To Have $5M Lawsuit Filed By Misa Heard In Special Court

By: Grouchy Greg Watkins (@GrouchyGreg)Category: News

Mary J. Blige’s attempt to transfer a $5 million lawsuit filed by Misa Hylton to a New York court that handles complex business disputes failed as a judge ruled the case didn’t meet the requirements for the specialized venue.

Blige’s legal team argued the case, centered on allegations that she interfered with Hylton’s management deal involving rapper Vado, was too intricate for standard civil court.

They claimed the lawsuit involved “complex” issues such as California law, contract enforcement and corporate standing.

However, Judge Suzanne J. Adams rejected the motion, stating that the claims were tied to entertainment and artist management agreements, not the type of commercial dealings the court’s Commercial Division was designed to handle.

In her ruling, Adams wrote that “the complexity of the case, the choice of law issues, and the amount in controversy do not warrant transfer to the Commercial Division.”

The lawsuit, filed in April 2025, accuses Mary J. Blige of pressuring Vado to abandon his agreement with Hylton’s M.I.S.A. Management in favor of signing with Blige’s label, Beautiful Life Productions.

Hylton alleges Blige withheld album releases and touring opportunities from Vado unless he cut ties with her.

Hylton is seeking $5 million in damages, as well as an injunction to prevent Blige from interfering in future business relationships.

The complaint also names Blige’s head of security, whom Hylton claims is her boyfriend, and accuses him of warning Vado that he’d “lose out on opportunities” if he stayed with Hylton.

Blige has dismissed the claims as “patently frivolous” and “meritless,” suggesting the lawsuit is a personal attack designed to force a settlement.

Her attorneys argue that Hylton’s company is not a valid corporation and that she lacks the proper licensing to operate as a talent agent.

Blige is also seeking sanctions against Hylton and her attorney, alleging the suit was filed for publicity and leverage.

Hylton’s lawyer said they tried to resolve the dispute privately, but turned to the courts when Blige’s team stopped responding.

As of late July 2025, the case remains active in civil court, with Blige pushing for dismissal and Hylton standing firm on her claims.

Lil Jon Stuns Muscle Man Contest With Jaw-Dropping Body Transformation

By: Mike WinslowCategory: News

Lil Jon flexed more than his Hip-Hop credentials on Labor Day when he hit the stage at the 2025 Muscle Beach Championships in Venice, California, stepping into a bodybuilding contest that drew amateur lifters from around the globe.

Known for his high-energy anthems and crunk legacy, the Grammy-winning artist didn’t just perform for the crowd. He stripped down, oiled up and joined the competition, showcasing a transformed physique built through months of discipline and clean living.

“Been a lot physically, just in the gym. Dedication. Eating. Focus. I’m winning just by being here and, you know, changing my lifestyle mentally and physically,” Lil Jon said during the event.

The Muscle Beach Championships has long been a proving ground for aspiring athletes. But few expected to see the 50-something rapper among the competitors, especially after a career built on late nights and party anthems.

Lil Jon’s journey to the weight bench started after a close friend underwent triple bypass surgery in his 40s. That wake-up call, combined with his own string of minor health issues and alcohol-related liver concerns, pushed the rapper to reevaluate his lifestyle.

He ultimately quit drinking, a decision he said brought him mental clarity and improved overall health. That pivot also led him to adopt wellness practices such as meditation, clean eating, and regular workouts.

By 2024, he’d released two guided meditation albums—Total Meditation and Manifest Ab: Affirmations of Growth—and launched his wellness brand, Soul Chakra, which includes live meditation and sound bath experiences.

But the Muscle Beach stage marked a new chapter.

Lil Jon wasn’t just promoting wellness—he was living it, shirtless and shredded.

“One of the things I hope is that I can be an inspiration to so many people that say, I don’t have time, I can’t do it. If I can do it and you can do it too, no excuses,” he said.

Lil Yachty Slammed For Ignoring Male Supporters At Meet-&-Greet

By: London JennnCategory: News

Lil Yachty drew criticism this week after video from a meet-and-greet surfaced showing him warmly interacting with a female attendee while barely acknowledging several male fans, prompting frustration across social media.

The footage, which circulated widely on Monday (September 1), shows Yachty smiling and engaging with a woman, while in other clips he appears distracted, scrolling on his phone and giving half-hearted greetings to male supporters—sometimes not even making eye contact.

One user wrote, “Imagine paying money to meet somebody you f### with and they treat you like this.”

Another added, “Every week this n#### shows that he’s an a###### in a different way lol.”

Some online commenters weren’t surprised, pointing to Yachty’s past behavior and comments. “How ik they dont listen to him. He literally talks s### about n##### who act like groupies.”

Despite accusations that he was flirting with female attendees, Yachty has previously rejected the idea that he engages in casual encounters.

In a 2022 tweet, he wrote, “I feel sorry for women who have intentions on f###### me the first night they meet me. Because I don’t do that I wasn’t raised that way. #gettoknowtherealme.”

The meet-and-greet backlash comes just weeks after another controversy involving the rapper.

During an August 2025 Twitch stream hosted by PlaqueBoyMax, Yachty previewed a track containing a lyric that referenced George Floyd: “Put my knee up on her neck, I went George Floyd.”

The line was quickly condemned, including by former NBA player Stephen Jackson, a close friend of Floyd’s, who called it “weak” and said artists should stop using Floyd’s name for attention.

Yachty later reached out to Jackson privately to apologize. Jackson acknowledged the apology publicly, saying, “He’s a smart young man, he’s winning for a reason… he made a mistake, he apologized, we moved on from it.”

August Alsina Defends His Relationship With Younger Boyfriend—Slams Grooming Accusations

By: London JennnCategory: News

August Alsina shut down grooming accusations and confirmed his relationship with rumored boyfriend Zu, after a photo post sparked backlash over their age gap and timeline.

The New Orleans native, who turns 33 later this month, faced criticism online after hinting he and Zu have been together for nearly five years. That detail led social media users to question when the relationship began, prompting Zu to directly address the speculation.

“I’m a grown ass man, with his own mind and free will,” Zu wrote in a lengthy Notes app message shared to social media. “I met August when I was already of age, an adult. Aug didn’t even know me when I was 16 or 17…not sure where that came from.”

He confirmed their romantic relationship, adding, “Yea there’s a slight age difference but y’all pick and chooses who to judge when it comes to that. We will have known each other for 5 years toward the end of the year, so he’s speaking in future terms because that’s where we plan to make it.” He ended the post with, “Hope this clears up any confusion.”

But the internet didn’t quiet down.

One user commented, “‘August is my boyfriend’ gone head and clear the AIR for anyone confused.”

Others remained skeptical, questioning the maturity gap and timing.

One critic wrote, “it really doesn’t babe regardless if he met you at 18 or 19 you weren’t grown and he was grown as the f###.”

Zu clapped back, “Awwwe cry me a river.”

The exchange continued with the critic responding, “i’m not sad i wasn’t groomed or dating a predator i like people in my age group.”

Zu replied, “Everybody entitled to the opinion, ik what it is..and I’m living the greatest life.”

August Alsina Weighs In Following Backlash

Another user added, “This don’t clear up anything. If anything makes y’all sound more guilty.”

Alsina didn’t stay silent. He fired back in a separate post, writing, “Guilty? This word implies that you thought yall held some sort of court or dominion over two grown ass people to be judged for some sort of outcome…. The level of delusion and narcissism yall live in is psychotic! Yall don’t even hold authority in your own life… let alone, MINE! Heal & pay ya rent family!”

He also revealed, “Zu lied to me about how old he was when we first clicked up. Granted, he was over 18… but the fact still remains. & I found out later, upon meeting the family.”

Alsina dismissed the “predator” label and made it clear that Zu is with him by choice. “Play somewhere, where it’s safe,” he added, telling critics to stay out of their relationship.

Young Thug Goes Off On Kendrick Lamar In Explosive Jail Call: “Never Be Bigger Than Drake”

By: London JennnCategory: News

Young Thug unloaded on Kendrick Lamar and showered Drake with praise in a newly leaked jail call that surfaced Tuesday morning (September 2), venting over Kendrick’s refusal to appear on his Business Is Business album and questioning his role in Hip-Hop’s collaborative culture.

The audio, part of an ongoing stream of controversial jailhouse recordings, captured the Atlanta rapper expressing disappointment and disbelief over Kendrick’s decision not to participate on the project.

“Why wouldn’t you wanna do a feature for a superstar?” Thug asked, his voice tinged with frustration.

“You really got Lil Durk calling you for a song, Lil Baby, Thug, real superstars calling you for a song, why wouldn’t you do the song? We lit, n####. We going number one, too,” he continued.

Thug didn’t stop there. He compared Kendrick’s industry presence to Drake’s, arguing that Kendrick hasn’t extended the same support to other artists.

“You ’posed to be a n#### who bless a n####. That’s why them n##### would never be bigger than Drake, ever in life,” he said.

“You know how many n##### life Drake changed? You know how many n##### can take care of their family cause of [Drake.]” Thug added, emphasizing the Toronto rapper’s influence and generosity.

He also took a swipe at Kendrick’s cousin, Baby Keem, saying, “[Kendrick] ain’t really helped nobody, n#### ain’t gaining fans of you. Keem ain’t big, Keem lil as hell.”

Young Thug Faces Snitching Allegations As YSL Crew Implodes

The leaked call is the latest in a growing pile of audio recordings from jail that have put Young Thug at the center of multiple feuds and controversies.

Over the past week, several clips have emerged, including one where he allegedly criticized Gucci Mane for going “soft” after his own prison stint.

He also accused Pierre “P” Thomas, CEO of Quality Control, of snitching and financial mismanagement.

In another call, Thug blasted Gunna for accepting a plea deal in the YSL RICO case, claiming he did it “to get out for a hoe.”

Meanwhile, Young Thug responded to a leaked interrogation video by denying he cooperated with authorities.

“They didn’t didn’t play my interrogation video in court cause I helped my brada #Ratwhere?” he wrote on social media.

The ongoing leak of jail calls has stirred tension within the YSL camp and reignited debates about loyalty and street ethics.

NBA YoungBoy Returns To Spotlight With Dramatic Casket Entrance At Dallas Show

By: London JennnCategory: News

NBA YoungBoy launched his return to the spotlight with a theatrical entrance and a packed arena at the American Airlines Center in Dallas on Monday (September 1), kicking off his MASA Tour 2025 by rising from a casket in front of thousands.

The Baton Rouge rapper’s dramatic reemergence marked his first major arena headlining tour after years of legal battles and time away from the stage.

The MASA Tour—short for Make America Slime Again—is his first since being released from federal prison in March 2025, where he served time on gun and prescription drug fraud charges.

The Dallas show set the tone for what’s expected to be a high-energy run through major cities, including Los Angeles, Houston, Chicago, Brooklyn, Miami, Atlanta, Denver and Boston.

The tour also features appearances from DeeBaby, EBK Jaaybo and K3, adding more firepower to the lineup.

Online clips from the opening night show NBA YoungBoy—real name Kentrell Gaulden—emerging from a coffin as lights flashed and the crowd erupted.

The moment was both symbolic and theatrical, signaling his return after a turbulent stretch marked by court cases and house arrest.

NBA YoungBoy Gives Back In Dallas

Just before the Dallas concert, YoungBoy made headlines for a different reason. He donated $50,000 to two Dallas-based nonprofits: Manifest Freedom and Urban Specialists.

The funds were split evenly between the organizations, which focus on supporting communities impacted by incarceration and reducing neighborhood violence.

“Basically, it’s just to help try to stop the crime,” YoungBoy said. “You know, a lot of people be getting hurt, so it ain’t really cool at this point to me, so I just want to help in any way I could.”

Manifest Freedom, founded by attorney Brittany K. Barnett, works with formerly incarcerated entrepreneurs and creatives.

Urban Specialists is a national nonprofit that promotes safer communities through outreach and education.

Both groups plan to use the donation for youth programs and family support services.

NBA YoungBoy’s MASA Tour continues across the country through fall 2025.

Cardi B Sets Record Straight On 2025 Tour As Pregnancy Rumors Continue

By: London JennnCategory: News

Cardi B confirmed her long-awaited return to the stage during an Instagram Live session, assuring her 2025 tour is still on track despite fears a rumored pregnancy would force a delay.

The Grammy-winning rapper made it clear she’s not canceling anything, despite weeks of speculation sparked by her recent wardrobe choices and public appearances.

Despite the online chatter, Cardi made her intentions clear during a livestream Monday (September 1), teasing that tour dates would be revealed “very, very soon.”

“I’m so excited,” she said. “After all of this album rollout and album duties, I go straight into tour prep. So there’s no time to waste.”

The upcoming tour will mark her first full-scale run since 2019 and is expected to feature surprise guests and elaborate production — hallmarks of her high-energy performances.

After wearing oversized outfits and appearing to shield her midsection, social media users speculated she might be expecting and worried it could derail her tour plans.

But Cardi was clear when a viewer asked if she was pregnant during an Instagram Live last month.

“No, you stupid b####,” she fired back. “I’m just out of breath ’cause I have asthma… Stop being funny in this b#### before you get blocked, b####. That’s a stupid comment; don’t put that on me.”

Still, she stirred the pot just a bit more with a cryptic post on X (formerly Twitter), writing, “But AM I?…” alongside a GIF of Tokyo Toni raising her eyebrows — a move that only added fuel to the rumor mill.

The Bronx native is also gearing up for the release of her second studio album, Am I the Drama?, which drops September 19.

The 23-track project includes hits like “WAP,” “Up” and the lead single “Outside.”

Meek Mill Blasts Street Culture As 6ix9ine Drags Him Over Young Thug

By: London JennnCategory: News

Meek Mill took aim at the illusion of street loyalty as 6ix9ine reignited his feud with the rapper, questioning his silence on the Young Thug interrogation leak and their past collaboration.

6ix9ine, who has long been a lightning rod in Hip-Hop due to his own legal history, posted a screenshot of what appeared to be a tweet from Meek Mill.

The post read: “I hope that rat going live to apologize to the people he told on or the victim….. Y’all forgot that fast a ‘rat’ killed nipsey he wasn’t suppose to be on the streets! That’s the only thing ima day because he’s dead… left his baby mom and child like a coward as targets!”

The authenticity of the tweet is questionable, and Meek has not confirmed it.

Still, 6ix9ine used the moment to call out Meek for his 2017 track “We Ball” with Young Thug, writing: “Question since you always had an opinion YOU STILL PERFORMING WE BALL?”

Meek didn’t respond directly but shared a post on his Instagram Story Monday (September 1), addressing the broader issue of street ethics.

“Street glorification is a joke. Of course there are no morals. You can’t have a code of ethics when nothing you’re doing is ethical. Focus on investing, trading, tech, & entrepreneurship. The other way is a circus with no ringleader.”

He added, “Next interview I do ima explain why the streets a ‘FULL MYTH’ !!!!!!”

6ix9ine has spent the past week calling out Atlanta artists for staying quiet about Young Thug’s resurfaced police interrogation footage.

In the clip, Thug appears to give his number to law enforcement and asks them not to tell anyone. 6ix9ine questioned why Thug hasn’t received the same backlash others have faced.

“Why is everybody so quiet? When the songs coming out calling ya man Spider a rat?” he asked, naming Lil Baby, Future, and 21 Savage as artists who have yet to speak on the matter.

“I never told on my friends,” 6ix9ine said. “I DID IT AND WHAT. YOUNG THUG SAID to THE POLICE: Take my number. CALL ME. Just don’t tell nobody you got my number. HOW YOU GOING TO DEFEND THAT?”

He also criticized Thug for not requesting a lawyer and instead speaking for “two hours,” saying, “Where’s all the energy at?”

Brittany Renner Dragged Online After Dramatic Custody Blowup With PJ Washington

By: London JennnCategory: News

Brittany Renner found herself at the center of online backlash after a tense custody handoff with PJ Washington turned into a profanity-laced public showdown, all caught on camera.

On Monday (September 1), a viral clip circulated online, showing Renner confronting Washington during a scheduled exchange of their son, PJ Jr., accusing him of being absent and emotionally disconnected.

“Every time that he does this, I’m gonna record it, because that’s not okay,” she says in the video, as the child cries while being handed to his father. “This is the third time he’s done it.”

Renner then accuses Washington of being inconsistent and not spending enough time with their son.

“He doesn’t want to go with you,” she adds. “So actually show up and do something with him, ’cause he does this every time.”

Renner’s mother quickly joined the confrontation, backing her daughter and telling Washington the child didn’t want to go.

The argument escalated when Washington, visibly irritated, snapped, “Suck my dick.”

When challenged to repeat himself, he doubled down: “I didn’t stutter. Suck my dick.”

Renner’s mother fired back, “If you had one, maybe I would. P####-ass b####.”

The exchange didn’t stop there. Renner’s mother also accused Washington of prioritizing other women over his son, yelling, “$170,000 to your hoe but $11,000 in your son’s bank account!”

Washington’s wife, Alisah Chanel, was also present and briefly involved in the heated argument. At one point, Renner’s mother dared her to step out of the car and fight.

Brittany Renner Sparks Internet Fury

Social media users didn’t hold back, with many accusing Renner of trying to manipulate the situation.

One user wrote, “She’s trying to make him look bad, but it’s backfiring.” Another added, “Trying to make PJ look bad for no reason. She’s not fooling anyone.”

One commenter mocked her financial complaint, saying, “She said ‘only $11,000 in your son’s bank account’ like young dawg got a mortgage and s### lmao.”

Renner and Washington began dating in 2019 and welcomed their son in May 2021. Their relationship ended later that year, and the custody battle has remained public ever since. 

Sade 2026 Tour Rumors: What’s Fact & What’s Fiction

By: Houston WilliamsCategory: Rumors

Sade and a world tour in 2026? Those two words together have social media acting like Christmas came early. My feed is full of so-called “tour posters,” “inside scoops” and and other mania called the Sade Adu Echoes in the Dark World Tour 2026. People are already picking outfits—but hold off on getting the babysitter.

There’s no official confirmation from Sade, her management or her official site. Nothing. I went to buy tickets and there wasn’t even a placeholder on Ticketmaster. All of this hype is running off hope, not facts. Some outlets even dropped stories about it, but the end result is “it’s unconfirmed.”

Sade can make the world lose its mind without saying a word. She hasn’t toured since 2011, when the Soldier of Love Tour grossed more than $50 million. That was over a decade ago. I missed her that time, but I won’t make that mistake if she comes back around. The scarcity only adds to her legend. She’s one of the greatest singers of all time.

Drake knows.

Some sites have gone so far as to create fake itineraries. When you get to the bottom of the fine print is says, “there is no official news about a SADE Tour 2026 yet.” Anything for clicks.

After Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter and Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour, folks are dreaming about Sade doing her version of a cultural reset. We need it, too. Sade Adu is almost 70 years old. Come on. Stop playing with our emotions. Lagos, London, Paris and New York are all ready.

There’s not a lot more to say.

Rumor busted—for now. But if she does step back into the spotlight, we’ll be there.

You knew she dropped a song last November.

Fugees MC Pras’ Sentencing Delayed After Emergency Cancer Battle

By: Houston WilliamsCategory: News

Pras Michel was supposed to face judgment in a Washington courtroom last month. Instead, the Fugees rapper found himself in a hospital undergoing emergency colon cancer surgery. This recent development that forced a delay in his long-awaited sentencing.

Michel, whose legal name is Prakazrel Michel, had been slated for sentencing in his federal conspiracy case, where he faces up to 20 years in prison. According to his legal team, the health crisis took priority.

“Pras was unable to attend his scheduled sentencing hearing on Friday due to emergency medical surgery to remove cancer from his colon,” his spokesperson Erica Dumas told Complex in a statement. “We wish him a complete and speedy recovery as he navigates both his legal matters and his health journey.”

Now the sentencing is set for October 3, days before his 53rd birthday.

The Grammy-winning artist was convicted in 2023 on 10 counts tied to a sweeping international conspiracy involving millions in foreign funds. Prosecutors accused him of helping funnel $865,000 into Barack Obama’s 2012 campaign. He later reportedly attempted to persuade the Trump administration to ease off Malaysian financier Jho Low. Low is still wanted for his role in the notorious 1MDB scandal.

Michel has been free on bond while awaiting sentencing. He has fought the conviction aggressively and maintained his innocence. His appeal centers on what he claims was incompetent representation — alleging that his defense attorney relied on artificial intelligence to craft his closing arguments.

His case even brushed against presidential politics earlier this year, when The Hollywood Reporter revealed that Donald Trump was allegedly considering granting him a pardon. While the former president never publicly addressed the reports, Michel’s team said they were “exploring all available options.”

For now, he recovers from surgery.

Snoop Dogg Rep Say Apology Over LGBTQ Comments Was “Fake”

By: AllHipHop StaffCategory: News

Snoop Dogg found himself at the center of online confusion and criticism after a fake Instagram comment circulated in response to his remarks about LGBTQ themes in children’s films.

The Hip-Hop icon came under scrutiny following his appearance on the It’s Giving podcast, where he described feeling uncomfortable watching the 2022 animated movie Lightyear with his grandson.

The film features a same-sex couple raising a child, which prompted questions from the young boy that Snoop admitted he didn’t know how to answer.

“These are kids. We have to show that at this age? They’re going to ask questions. I don’t have the answer,” the 53-year-old said on the podcast. He added that he now feels “scared to go to the movies” out of concern he’ll be put “in the middle of s**t that I don’t have an answer for.”

Over the weekend, a now-deleted comment appeared under a post by Hollywood Unlocked, allegedly showing Snoop Dogg trying to explain himself.

The message read, “I was just caught off guard and had no answer for my grandsons. All my gay friends no what’s up, they been calling me with love. My bad for not knowing the answers for a 6-yr-old. Teach me how to learn. I’m not perfect (sic).”

Snoop Dogg’s representative confirmed the comment was fabricated. The identity of the person behind the impersonation remains unknown.

The fake apology surfaced after entertainer Ts Madison publicly addressed Snoop’s comments, prompting the alleged response. However, the rapper has not made any public apology or further statement since the podcast aired.

Snoop’s original remarks continue to stir debate about LGBTQ representation in children’s media and how public figures navigate those conversations with younger generations.

The podcast episode featuring Snoop’s comments was released last week.

Tyrese Roasted Online After Begging Mary J. Blige To Collaborate

By: London JennnCategory: News

Tyrese aired his frustration and heartache over a failed collaboration with Mary J. Blige in a video that quickly caught fire online, pleading with the public to help him connect with the R&B legend after she turned down not one but two songs he crafted specifically for her.

“I tried my best to get Mary J Blige on both songs. “She passed on it. It’s okay. I feel a way about it,” the singer-actor said in the clip, his voice heavy with disappointment.

“I’m really hurt. I can’t lie,” he continued, explaining that his pain wasn’t just about the rejection, but the effort he poured into the music. “Like a mad scientist, I went into the studio, and when I tell you, I customized this song, I made this m########### tailor-made for Mary.”

Despite the rejection, Tyrese still praised Blige as “one of a kind” but made it clear he was let down.

“I’m disappointed that you didn’t do my song,” he added. “But we got so much equity over all these years, I ain’t gonna hold that to you.”

He then turned to the public for help, asking, “Y’all can get this message to Mary?”

But the internet wasn’t having it.

Several users pushed back, accusing Tyrese of crossing a line. “Tyrese Please Go and Take a Nap. Like Seriously Where are Your friends? Come Get Him,” one commenter wrote.

Another added, “Get what message to Mary J? Didn’t she tell you ‘no’? Now this is starting to become harassment.”

Others pointed out that this wasn’t the first time Tyrese had publicly tried to get Blige’s attention.

Tyrese Fails To Contact Mary J Blige Despite Weeks of Trying

In a previous social media post, he wrote, “Can someone please help me to get a hold and reach Mary J. Blige?”

Calling her his “Capricorn queen,” he said he had been trying to reach her for “two weeks” and didn’t have her current contact info. “I have something so very special for us,” he wrote, adding, “Of all the years I’ve been knowing you, I’ve never hit you like this.”

While Tyrese’s admiration for Blige is clear, many online believe it’s time for him to take the hint and move on.

Donald Trump’s Hair Has Internet Running Wild With Conspiracies

By: Houston WilliamsCategory: Rumors

Donald Trump’s hair and health are the internet’s latest obsession and the theories are wilder than ever.

The internet has been set ruminating over speculation after new photos of the former president surfaced, showing him looking noticeably different. Social media wasted no time letting the jokes fly. Comments like “Where is his hair?,” “That is not a healthy man,” and “Grim Reaper do your thing” spread like wildfire, making Trump the reluctant star of another viral storm.

Trump disappeared from public view for a few days, which only created more conspiracy. When he finally popped back up, the pictures didn’t do him any favors. His hair appeared thinner. Some even said that wig is gone! Axnd that familiar orange glow seemed dimmer than usual. The hat he wore looked tight enough to be covering something. Some of the comments I saw wondered if Trumpy had quietly gone bald.

I know you heard this next rumor. A lot of folks online are convinced he’s dealing with some kind of health crisis. His hand, which has been photographed a lot, looks like it has a recurring growth. Theories are running laps around the truth, which we do not know. They go from minor illness to something far more serious. One extreme MAGA commented, “Cut that hand off, damn it!” They want to save the president. A lot of people do not want that.

The Trump doppelgänger theory made its way back to the front. Some claim the man seen on the golf course yesterday wasn’t him at all, just a stand-in double keeping up appearances while the real Trump rests. The man is almost 80. Those naps get longer and longer…until the big nap.

Seriously, the timing couldn’t be worse. While the world deals with mass shootings, wars and global instability, Trump’s priority seemed to be hitting the golf course. Is there something we should know?

We are in the distraction era.

Claressa Shields Shocks Miami With Surprise Summer Walker Duet

By: London JennnCategory: News

Claressa Shields surprised the crowd during Summer Walker’s set at Breezy Bowl Stadium Tour stop in Miami over the weekend by grabbing the mic and belting out “Session 32” live on stage after Walker invited her up.

The two-time Olympic gold medalist and undisputed boxing champion wasn’t throwing punches this time—she was hitting notes.

A video posted to social media shows Summer Walker turning to Shields and asking, “You wanna sing?” before the boxer leaned into the mic and started singing.

Shields later posted the moment on Instagram on Sunday (August 31).

“Today I faced my fears,” she wrote. “Done sang in front of thousands of ppl, Summer made a special request! GWOAT X @summerwalker.”

But the spotlight didn’t stop at the stage.

Later that weekend, Shields stirred up conversation online after tweeting about her relationship with Papoose and her desire to start a family.

“I can’t wait to get pregnant, you heaux gonna be so mad. Going to be crying in the car, punching the steering wheel crying,” she wrote, adding, “The magic number is 4…. I want 4 kids.”

The comments drew criticism, with one user pointing out, “it’s the fact the man married,” suggesting Papoose could reconcile with Remy Ma.

Shields didn’t hold back in her reply. “Girl s###….That s### been done way before I even met him. That estranged wife got a man. Keep up Crashout Kelly,” she wrote.

She followed up with, “You never heard of divorce? Hell he’s the one that filed. We are together and nobody wants better for me than me.”

Despite the online chatter, Shields made it clear she’s unbothered.

“No one else happiness makes me mad,” she said. “So why does my happiness upset people. I’m in a happy relationship, folks mad. Happy with my career folks mad & jealous! Making money spending it too folks mad again! Like why.”

Super Creator Ron Lawrence Talks AI Explosion, Hit-Making For Diddy, JAY-Z & Biggie

By: Chuck Creekmur (@ChuckCreekmur)Category: Exclusives

Hip-Hop has always been the laboratory where tech, style, and street wisdom collide. Few figures embody that spirit like Ron Lawrence, the legendary producer who evolved from a Howard University-bred MC to Bad Boy Hitmen architect to today’s AI filmmaker. If you know the sinister pulse of JAY-Z’s “Where I’m From” or the crackling urgency of The LOX’s “Money, Power, Respect,” you know Ron’s work. As one half of Two Kings in the Cipher, Ron came of age during a moment when knowledge-of-self rhymes and East Coast sounds shaped the culture. Now he is pushing that same curiosity into artificial intelligence with “Backspin Chronicles,” a fast-growing series that animates Hip-Hop history through living album covers, archival flips and narrative mini-docs. The conversation below gets into the love and the conflicts around AI, the ethics, the haters, the compliments from legends and why Ron believes the culture must claim this tech to preserve our stories, not erase them. For the full interview, please enjoy the video from AllHipHopTV.

Chuck “Jigsaw” Creekmur: You have managed to make AI art that the culture actually loves. What do you call yourself right now?

Ron Lawrence: AI filmmaker, AI specialist, however you want to frame it. This space is so new that the titles barely exist, but that is the lane I am in.

AllHipHop: What sparked the early wave, especially the animated album covers?

Ron: I was experimenting. I moved from cookie cutter apps to professional tools and just wanted to make things move. I did Kid ’n Play, then a small Salt-N-Pepa piece when they were getting major recognition, and it clicked. I stitched multiple covers into a three or four minute segment, scored it with instrumentals from Two Kings in the Cipher so I could control rights, and people felt it.

AllHipHop: The reaction can be intense. Any pushback from artists or fans?

Ron: Most people love it, some go hard against AI. I had a woman curse me out in the inbox about environmental harm. Tech has always had costs, but what I am doing is about storytelling. I am aiming to fill a void and speak to the culture through my eyes.

AllHipHop: You are also getting love from icons.

Ron: Yeah, you will see names like Rakim and Dice reposting the work. I am not a heavy social media guy, but this wave made my page explode. I keep a separate page for personal life now.

AllHipHop: Do you see competitors or copycats?

Ron: People will try to copy, that is flattering. I avoid looking sideways. I create what comes to mind and try to put a stamp down while it is still early, like the wild open days of early Hip-Hop.

AllHipHop: Let’s talk scale. Commercials, films, campaigns?

Ron: All of it. AI will power a lot of those jobs. I even built a campaign for Newark Mayor Ras Baraka from photos, and the thing lived. The tech is not perfect, you can spot distorted faces in crowd shots, but the curve is steep and fast.

AllHipHop: The big existential worry is that AI replaces real human moments. The shared experience, the crowd, the sweat.

Ron: The shift is coming. It always comes. The car replaced horses, electricity replaced lamps. Jobs shift. The question is how to position yourself. If AI will do a job, learn to prompt, direct, and design that job. Stand behind the machine, not under it.

AllHipHop: Creatively, some AI rap stuff feels cheap. Thoughts?

Ron: Exactly, not everybody will be creative with it. Think about what Serato did. Suddenly everyone could DJ. Tech democratizes, the ceiling still belongs to those with vision. My focus is narrative quality, not shortcuts.

AllHipHop: You did a divine nine video that had the sororities and fraternities talking (see the video below). Research is a beast, right?

Ron: I try to be thorough. Sometimes I cannot source enough vintage imagery from every org and people will let you know. It is never intentional. The goal is balance and respect.

AllHipHop: The ethics loom large. Deepfakes, harmful stereotypes, algorithmic suppression.

Ron: That is real. I have seen AI content that drifts toward modern blackface and it is foul. We also know platforms can throttle stories, and even AI tools will block sensitive historical prompts. That is why we need people from the culture guiding this. With AI, you can finally tell the stories Hollywood will not finance, but you also have to protect truth.

AllHipHop: Voices are another frontier. The community wants authentic narrators.

Ron: The voice libraries are limited and often trash. I want premium African American voices that match the story. Until the options improve, I lean into what carries the emotion. I listen to feedback, then I iterate.

AllHipHop: What is the larger play with “Backspin Chronicles?”

Ron: Those one minute pieces are seeds for full documentaries. Each clip is a pilot for a longer film. That is the vision.

AllHipHop: Your music legacy still rings. Two Kings in the Cipher was crackling with ideas. Then the Hitmen era was a run. How do you see that path now?

Ron: I came in as a rapper, DJ turned producer. When the Two Kings album did not get the push it needed and the industry pivoted from consciousness to gangsta narratives, I decided to produce the heroes I admired. That led to Sugar, “What’s Up Star,” Tracy Lee, and the big moments like JAY-Z’s “Where I’m From” and The LOX “Money, Power, Respect.” We were not chasing hits, we were chasing great records. The hits came.

AllHipHop: What did you learn from Diddy and the Hitmen environment?

Ron: Precision. He wanted a certain sheen. I arrived with dark, soundtrack energy, and he pushed me to shape it into the Bad Boy palette. Each producer had a lane. Together it formed a sound.

AllHipHop: Favorite record you produced?

Ron: I do not have a single favorite, but “Where I’m From” and “Money, Power, Respect” define my taste. That sinister, cinematic feel is me.

AllHipHop: Any memories of Big?

Ron: I came in during 1996 and he passed in 1997, so it was business and studio, not deep friendship. Heavy time, turbulent energy. I stayed in the lab and flew to Trinidad to work when things got too wild.

AllHipHop: Producer heroes outside the crew?

Ron: Larry Smith is criminally under celebrated. Pure quality. In the nineties, DJ Premier. The craft kept leveling up as the tech improved from low bit samplers to cleaner machines.

AllHipHop: Where does AI and music go next, especially with voice models?

Ron: It is already here. Producers mock up placements with an artist’s AI voice as a proof of concept. That is a slippery slope, but I see a noble lane for artists like Beanie Sigel or The D.O.C. who lost vocal power. If they write the rhymes and restore their own voices using their past recordings, that is preservation, not fakery. The pen must remain the pen.

AllHipHop: Final word to the culture about AI.

Ron: Claim it. If something is harmful, build a better lane. Use AI to preserve Hip-Hop, to tell stories they refuse to fund, and to protect our image. Figure it out and make it serve the people.

Marlon Wayans Going Deeper Into Horror With South Korean Game Show Adaptation

By: Mike WinslowCategory: News

Marlon Wayans is getting freakier than ever with a creepy new TV project and a reboot of one of his most iconic horror comedies.

The comedian-turned-horror head is teaming up with his longtime producing partner, Rick Alvarez, to bring the South Korean hit Midnight Horror Story to the U.S., and it’s going to be weird in the best way.

Wayans and Alvarez, through their Ugly Baby Productions company, are linking up with Smart Dog Media—the same crew that turned The Masked Singer into a pop culture beast.

The American version of Midnight Horror Story is set to mix horror, comedy and a whole lotta weird energy, which is basically the Wayans brand wrapped in one.

The original show, created by Munhwa Broadcasting Company (MBC), is already five seasons deep in South Korea.

It’s basically a spooky storytelling competition with a twist. Celebrities sit at a table, pick scary stories sent in by viewers and act them out while telling the stories.

After each tale, a “spirit audience”—a mix of virtual and in-studio people—decides how scary it was by lighting candles. Each candle means a spirit got spooked.

Whoever gets the most candles wins.

And knowing Wayans, that balance of creepy and comedy is going to hit differently. He’s already proven he can pull it off with A Haunted House and The Curse of Bridge Hollow on Netflix.

And if that wasn’t enough, Wayans is also bringing back Scary Movie—yep, that Scary Movie.

He’s co-producing and acting in Scary Movie 6, which drops in June 2026. Not only is he rejoining the franchise, but he’s also bringing back OG scream queens Anna Faris and Regina Hall.

Filming kicks off this fall.

Wayans is clearly on a mission to own the horror-comedy lane. From revamping cult classics to importing hit game shows, he’s making sure the scares keep coming—with a lot of laughs in between.

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s Shocking Weight Loss Starts Rumors, Truth Prevails

By: Houston WilliamsCategory: AHHplus

The first thing I saw was, “He’s not on ‘roids anymore.” The internet can be a terrible place. So began my trip to find the truth in the rumors.

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson traded in his normally giant physique for a leaner look at the Venice Film Festival. Like the internet dark places I peruse, audiences were stunned. The 53-year-old wrestler-turned-actor slimmed-down for his role as MMA legend Mark Kerr in the new film “The Smashing Machine.”

The transformation was like a shot across the world. Somehow, I think it was apart of the marketing of this movie. I had not heard of it until now. Also, it could be his run and being taken seriously as a thespian. At Saturday’s Miu Miu Women’s Tales event, The Rock stepped out in a blue button-up and black trouser. He has not looked like this in decades. He was joined by co-star Emily Blunt, who plays Kerr’s ex-wife, Dawn Staples.

Social media immediately started calling him “The Pebble.” Honestly, I think the jokes are corny, because “The Rock” is still a big dude. I am sure he could bust a couple skulls if needed. But that’s another story.

The film tells the story of Kerr’s rise in UFC and MMA and his struggles with prescription drug addiction. But according to Johnson, the story cuts deeper than cage fights.

At a Monday press conference, Johnson opened up about taking on the most challenging role of his career. “When you’re in Hollywood — as we all know, it had become about box office. And you chase the box office, and the box office can be very loud and it can become very resounding and it can push you into a category and into a corner,” he said.

“I just had this burning desire and voice that was saying, ‘What if there is more and what if I can?’” Johnson continued. “Sometimes it takes people that who you love and respect, like Emily and Benny, to say that you can.”

He admitted the role forced him to confront questions he’d avoided. “I looked around a few years ago and I started to think, you know, am I living my dream or am I living other people’s dreams? You come to that recognition and I think you can either fall in line — ‘Well, it’s status quo, things are good, I don’t want to rock the boat’ — or go, I want to live my dreams now and do what I wanna do and tap into the stuff that I want to tap into.”

This reminds me of Sly Stallone in “Copland.” That was a good movie but did not turn him into that heavy actor he sought to be. Hopefully The Rock gets some grace.

“I’ve been scared to go deep and intense and raw until now, until I had this opportunity,” he said at the press conference. Dame Dash would pause him, but we’re going to let it slide.

“The Smashing Machine” is set to hit theaters Oct. 3.
