“I had a baby by a stranger”, the opening line on Shya L’amour’s single “Stand Your Ground”. These days it’s not uncommon to see situations like this play out on social media. Instead of announcing her reality on Instagram or Facebook like most, Shya L’amour decided to keep it moving.
This was a rocky start for her 2015 and as soon as things began to look brighter for the emerging rapper she was hit with another blow. The only father figure her unborn baby has ever known was arrested and not granted a bond in a Stand Your Ground type of case. Now fighting for bond for a person who has never been convicted of a crime and a fair trial for a person arrested without incident, Shya L’amour almost reached her breaking point.
Continuing to stand her own ground and not crack under pressure, Shya L’amour decided to use the booth to release some tension. “Stand Your Ground” is Shya L’amour’s reality and personal account of what 2015 has been like. The beautiful starlet is currently in the studio working on new music, her beauty initiative “Shya L’amour & Friends Style Lounge” and various event hosting gigs.
Swae Lee and Slim Jimmy have now fired back at Ebro with a few bars during a 20 minute freestyle on TimWestwoodTV. Rae Sremmurd used the moment to let the former program director of the New York City station know they are not too concerned with his opinion.
“Catch me overseas, I’m dropping Euros, Euros. I ain’t never gave a f*ck about a Ebro, Ebro,” rapped Swae.
Jimmy added, “Ebro, Ebro – f*ck you. I’m super cold, subzero, zero. Hating like the flow ain’t lethal, lethal.”
Westwood also directly asked the brothers about what Ebro had to say concerning their LP. They were a little more diplomatic than the rhymes in the freestyle.
“We ain’t worried about it. People want to express their opinions. It’s his opinion,” stated Swae Lee. “Express your opinion. We’re gonna keep banging out. We’re just making music.”
The “No Flex Zone” rhymers did have a problem with Ebro making accusations that they did not write their lyrics on SremmLife. Swae said, “We ain’t even gotta address that. You can look on the album and see who writes the tracks. Do that, but don’t put no fake facts out there.”

Uh oh! It looks like Young Thug got busted for sporting a fake Audermars Piguet watch by @Fakewatchbusta. Apparently a lot of these rappers are rocking fake jewelry. It seems like some know they are buying the knock off versions while other may be getting duped. The @FakeWatchBusta account pointed out what allegedly gives Thugger’s watch away:
“The biggest give away here is the use of a 7750 Valjoux movement in the fake which makes for some spacing and depth problems around the date window. The in house movement from AP is modular which makes the date really deep and because of the custom size of the movement it gets that too close spacing towards the Tachymetre. You should see the pattern on the dial on the side of the date window. He is even missing a part of the crown, it should fill in the space perfectly between the pusher guards. There are other details that are off like the engraving of the plots and other small details like the font on the date wheel. The biggest give away is through the spacings a stock movement will give compared to an in house movement.”
Young Thug decided to poke fun at the situation as he Tweeted with comical emojis,
“Yall need to call @ElliottAviane this b*tch cost me 110K.”
(AllHipHop News) 21-year old rapper/singer Cascio is ready to break out with the new record “Chicken.” The Bayonne, New Jersey native made waves in 2015 with Chad B on “In My Zone.” Now Cascio is using “Chicken” to announce his mission to add as many commas to his bank account as possible.
“Chicken” is just slang we use in Bayonne for getting money. Think about it, the effort it takes to chase a chicken can be an annoying process. But once you catch that chicken, that means it’s time to eat! When you’re coming from nothing and hungry, you gotta “get yo ass up and go get this chicken.” If you don’t, you won’t eat. If you don’t know what it’s like to be starving, you wouldn’t understand.
Besides dropping his debut solo single, Cascio has more reason to celebrate. The Garden State representative recently signed a single deal with eOne Music for “In My Zone” along with Chad B. Look out for a collaborative EP with his Global Empire Music Group labelmate Chad in the coming months.A full length project from Cascio is in the works as well.

(AllHipHop News) Vivica A. Fox shocked social media and the blogosphere when she suggested former boyfriend 50 Cent was gay. Theveteran actress called Fiddy a “booty snatcher” during an interview on Watch What Happens Live, and the G-Unit leader fired right back by telling the world Fox performed oral sex on his a###.
50 provided some more details about the experience having his groceries eaten by Fox. While on Angela Yee’s Lip Service podcast, he insisted the sexual act only happened one time.
“I don’t ask. I don’t request this. I don’t require this. But if someone is really trying to bring you somewhere you haven’t been, they start doing different things,” said 50. “In that particular case, I looked and said, ‘What would make you say [I’m gay]? For what reason?'”
Yee’s co-hosts suggested Fox was just “freestyling” when she made those claims and the 51-year-old star of Independence Day regretted making those statements. However, 50 did not seem ready to let that excuse be acceptable.
“She just said some sh*t out of her mouth,” added 50. “But you said it.”
