Hip-Hop Rumors: Solange Is Mad At Beyonce, Not Jay!?
Soooooo…the plot thickens. Everybody opined about what happened with Jay and Solange. I didn’t write about it because in my heart of hears I didn’t think the Jay we all know and love would beat on his queen. But, the chicken head convention chimed in. First of all, Solange has reportedly deleted all the pictures of Beyonce off her Instagram account except ONE. I wonder why she is so mad at her big sis? Apparently, B checked her like “What is your problem?” because Solange had a bit too much to drink. AND, if you look at the full video, you will note that B did get in front of Jay – passively – but she did. At any rate, we still don’t know what happened but it is quite interesting that people advocate for Solange hitting Jay Z. If Jay had hit her back, it would be all out war on that dude. He maintained like a G.

Hip Hop Rumors: Beyonce And Jay-Z Marriage Rocky?
Yesterday the world went in to frenzy when video surfaced of Bey’s lil’ sis Solange giving Jigga Man a 3rd Ward beatdown in an elevator after the Met Gala Awards.
Now the seemingly perfect couple’s relationship is being questioned.
BlindGossip.com originally reported that this isn’t the first disturbing outburst involving the couple.
“Jay Z allegedly unleashed his own dark side during a disturbing incident back in 2013, according to a new report. According to BlindGossip.com, an NFL employee spotted the rapper “barking instructions” at Beyonce in the green room before her notorious Super Bowl performance.
“He became angry that she wasn’t giving him her full attention, and he grabbed the mobile device out of her hands,” the site claims. “He discovered that she was texting another man and started going through all her texts. His voice started out low, and he was swearing, ‘You mother f*ing b*tch!'”
Before long, the site claims, Beyonce “jumped up and got in his face and started yelling and swearing right back … She tried to grab the phone back from him, but he pushed her away and continued going through the phone and screaming at her, pushing her away, berating her, and started calling her every derogatory name for a woman in the book.”
Onlookers called the scene “horrific,” but the site claims that Beyonce and Jay Z’s team seemed totally used to such behavior.”

Donald Sterling Slams Magic Johnson For Having HIV; Magic Responds (VIDEO)
(AllHipHop News) In what was expected to be a conversation featuring an apologetic Donald Sterling, the billionaire owner used the forum to also lash out further at basketball legend and businessman Magic Johnson.
[ALSO READ: Donald Sterling Wants Forgiveness For “Baited” Racist Remarks, Offers More Comments About Magic Johnson]
CNN’s Anderson Cooper got an exclusive interview with Sterling who was caught on tape making racially insensitive statements about minorities and Johnson in particular. The Los Angeles Clippers owner did offer an apology for his controversial comments, but then turned his attention to attacking Magic and the fact he is HIV positive.
“He acts so holy. He made love to every girl in every city in America, and he had AIDS, and when he had those AIDS, I went to my synagogue and I prayed for him, I hope he could live and be well. I didn’t criticize him. I could have. Is he an example for children?” said Sterling.
Cooper corrected Sterling that Johnson does not have full-blown AIDS but does have the virus that causes the disease. That did no stop Sterling from continuing his rant against the Hall Of Famer.
“What kind of a guy goes to every city, has sex with every girl, then he catches HIV? Is that someone we want to respect and tell our kids about?” asked Sterling. “I think he should be ashamed of himself. I think he should go into the background. But what does he do for the black people? He doesn’t do anything.”
Sterling also claims Johnson originally said he would support him after the media firestorm over his remarks began which is why he waited to speak publicly about the situation.
“Wait, be patient, I’ll help you, we’ll work it out,” Sterling alleges he was told by Magic.
Johnson went on Twitter to make it clear he is done addressing Sterling.
