Yung Miami lost it with fans claiming she shaded her City Girls partner JT over her ongoing feud with Sukihana. 

On Tuesday (May 14), Miami responded to a fan on X (formerly Twitter) who posted a meme of JT. “HOE… THE THINGS THAT YOU’VE LIED ABOUT,” they wrote alongside the meme. 

Yung Miami clapped back, asking, “B#### DO WE HAVE A PROBLEM?????” before another fan intervened.  

“Don’t p### me off rn Miami. You know exactly why ppl jumping at you as much as you be on social media. You always play this lost character in every situation you start. Cut it out,” they added. 

While the fan didn’t name names, Yung Miami insisted she and JT squashed their recent beef. 

“P### you off?” she replied, adding that she doesn’t know them. “I SPOKE TO JT ME AND HER TALKED WE DON’T HAVE A PROBLEM it’s yall leave me tf alone!!!!” 

The City Girl fan doubled back, claiming supporters have concerns about the group breaking up. “I’m sure you can understand why fans feel like you was trying to be shady towards jt with that Gif! It did not look good to fans thats already on edge about the City Girls as a group,” they said. 

Nonetheless, Yung Miami refused to believe the “hate” came from a good place.  

“Yall don’t f### with me and riding the hate train it’s clear,” she responded. “You was just talking so much s### about me! I’m good don’t need no love from nobody that don’t f### with me!!!” 

The backlash came after City Girls fans noticed Yung Miami responded to an Instagram post about Sukihana’s JT diss. 

Last month, Yung Miami and JT clashed over alleged “sneak disses” in a heated online exchange before eventually settling their differences.

Three Men Shot On Set Of Lil Baby Video Shoot In Atlanta

​​Lil Baby was filming a music video in Atlanta when gunfire erupted, leaving three men injuring in the shooting and residents fearing for their lives. 

The rapper was shooting the video near a commercial strip in northwest Atlanta on Tuesday (May 14), per Fox 5 Atlanta. Lil Baby was captured on video by a local taco store, apparently arriving at the shoot hours before the shooting.  

Multiple witnesses say Lil Baby was in the area during the shooting but was not injured. However, Atlanta police report three men were shot and are all expected to survive. When cops arrived on the scene, they found a 27-year-old man who had been shot in the back and a 24-year-old man with a gunshot wound to the arm.  

Officials also discovered a 23-year-old man had been transported to hospital with a gunshot wound to the neck. 

Atlanta police also confirmed that the injured men are not believed to have been on Lil Baby’s production team. Nonetheless, cops said there may have been “individuals involved in the totality of the production that were involved in the incident.” 

Chasity Roman of Slapping Tacos ATL told Fox 5 she was delivering a burito when she the shooting began. “I fell in between the bullets. It was nothing but bullets, pow pow pow! It was terrible.” 

She added, “It was just a concert. I was waiting for Lil Baby to come buy my tacos up.” 

The Riddler’s Chaos: Is Drake’s Super Troll A Big Ol’ Fake?

By: illseed Updated Category: Rumors

I can’t lie. I am tired of all the fanfare surrounding Drake, Kendrick Lamar and the Riddler. I’m here to clear the air a bit about this gentleman who has caused much calamity and chaos in the last few days. However, to be completely transparent and fair, it seems like this person might be a fraud. He might violate laws prohibiting extortion.

“The Riddler” Possibly Still Trolling Drake—And It’s Getting Uglier

One thing is for sure and two things are certain: extortion is illegal. Anyone attempting to fleece money out of Drake will pay the consequences. By the way, it doesn’t seem like Drake is concerned about this in any way. That said, the internet has determined that this guy may be full of it.

Another thing is that they have allegedly identified him. Extorting somebody and then being identified by the internet is not a good look. For legal reasons, I will not post his picture or reveal his identity, but I am quite sure that legal authorities know who he is by now. Anyway, I’m still not exactly sure what’s going on, but this guy seems to be harassing Drake at this point. I don’t believe there’s a sinister way for him to get favor or money from Drake this way. Some people have refuted his story, and it has generally died down.

What I find hard to understand is how he obtained Drake’s stuff, and did he actually obtained it. Some have even suggested that he may have gone so far as to recreate Drake’s effects. I find that hard to believe because so much of the documentation is verified as real, according to the Internet, of course.

So, where does that leave us? I don’t know. For now, the memes continue, the jokes persist, but the drama has subsided greatly.

It was “fun” while it lasted.

The Game Claims Meek Mill Didn’t Catch Stray

The Game could end up being the source of one of Meek Mill’s upcoming outbursts on Twitter (X) based on his recent Instagram post.

Though Meek already shared the photo of his afro thriving as he’s on an island vacation, daring social media to make the flick go viral, The Game appeared to feel the need to repost it on the ‘Gram with the caption, “Life is good.”

A post shared by The Game (@losangelesconfidential)

The Game also tagged Meek in the post so it’s not like he’s throwing the rock and hiding his hand. He’s really saying it with his chest, whatever it is he’s trying to say.

And considering he recently released his “Freeway’s Revenge” diss track targeting Rick Ross, it would make some sort of sense that this was a negative shot a Meek. However, in a reply to a user in the comments section of the post who suggested the same idea, The Game claimed that wasn’t the case at all.

“This ain’t a diss b###h,” The Game wrote in the comment. “He wanted the pic to go viral… and thanks for the bday reminder hoe ass n####. You a man fan !!! Know everything bout a n#### & follow my every move waiting for yo moment… here it is p####.”

In another comment, Wack 100 appeared to suggest otherwise and seemingly shaded Meek, though he didn’t call the Philadelphia rapper out by name.

“Called me begging to apologize to you,” he wrote. “@losangelesconfidential you’ve been quiet bout it they think i’m cap. This man begged me to get you on the phone to apologize.”

It’s been several years since the pair of rappers have had adust-up between them. In 2016, The Game released his diss track entitled “Pest Control” in which he accused Meek of being a snitch, among perpetrating a number of other offenses. The diss was rather scathing as well, and saw the “Dreams” lyricist ridicule Meek for his digital footprint as well as his failed relationship with Nicki Minaj.

“This n#### take an L every time he go viral/ Welcome to the West, and this ain’t The Life of Pablo/ Stay on that b####### it’s gon’ start to feel like Chicago/ Keep it one hunnid, you Nicki Minaj sideshow,” The Game raps on the record.

Cardi B Lashes Out At Fans As She Cancels Next Album In Tweet-And-Delete Spree

By: Devon Jefferson Updated Category: Rumors

Considering Cardi B deleted the tweets, maybe she’s had a change of heart. As of now, her fans may be out of luck if they were holding out for new music this year.

Despite celebrating four of her songs, such as “WAP” featuring Megan Thee Stallion, breaking into Spotify’s billion streams club, Cardi B could be considering taking a step back from music. She expressed her sentiments in several since-deleted tweets from recent interactions with fans on Twitter (X). In one of the exchanges, Cardi revealed an update on her upcoming album in a response to a fan who appeared to deduce her interactions with fans to perpetually producing negative results.

“Exactly and I tell myself this all the time… and I hate that I fall back and start interacting again and it bites me in the ass,” Cardi wrote. “Anyway, no album this year I don’t care. I’m relaxing this year. Dropping these features that I already committed to and then traveling and enjoying my summer.”

In another tweet, Cardi B proceeded to describe the behavior of her fans as sabotage in reply to a user, who assumed she was pregnant and hormonal.

“Ain’t no hormones at all the b###h ain’t pregnant y’all just ruined everything for me,” she wrote. “WORST FANBASE EVER ..I remember crying to Ken cause I felt like I did something wrong when I dropped enough because y’all was complaining that it wasn’t on top hits today making me feel like I always drop the ball just saw the song can go top 10 without it y’all just love to complain.”

In March, following the release of her single “Enough” Cardi B took part in a live Q&A session on Threads, during which the official @threads account asked the Bronx-raised rapper to describe her upcoming album in one word.

“Different. I think it’s different. I think there’s going to be some songs that are like not expected to come from me,” Cardi responded on the Meta-owned social media platform.

Let’s hope we still get the chance to hear how different the project sounds this year!

JT Shuts Down Twitter Beef With Another Female Rapper After Revealing How She “Helped” Her

By: Devon Jefferson Updated Category: Rumors

JT isn’t known to duck rap beef, but this time, she’s doing her part to avoid any sort of disagreement with Rico Nasty.

It’s not that the pair of female rappers actually have an issue with each other. In fact, it’s actually the opposite. The entire situation appeared to unfold after Rico Nasty gave herself due credit in a reply to a fan who highlighted how her early personal style broke the mold in a tweet.

“I was rocking SPIKES they called me ODD but now they ROCKSTARS !” Rico wrote in the tweet.

While it’s clear that Rico was merely giving herself flowers for being a thought leader, another Twitter (X) user interpreted her message as a sneak diss. Based on the context, thus far we can assume that you would already be able to guess who the user was alluding the tweet was meant to disparage. Also, the fact that The City Girls rapper has ongoing rap beef with Sukihana, it’s almost as if she’s lowing fruit at the moment.

The user tagged JT, writing “@ThegirlJT shade,” which prompted Rico’s swift reply, in which she wrote, “B#### I love JT stop. Y’all always trying to start some drama.”

Considering JT has been on her Twitter Fingers timing as of late, it’s no surprise she responded as quickly as she did. However, it wasn’t in my playbook that she would be as cordial as she was. Nor, that she and Rico have history together as her tweet suggests.

“I love you too! They don’t know how much you helped me behind the scenes<3 & never hated!” JT wrote in the tweet.

Thank god JT and Rico didn’t start beefing because Lord knows we need a break following Drake and Kendrick Lamar’s rap beef. Plus, JT still hasn’t even responded to Sukihana’s diss record aimed at her, so she’s already got her hands full!

50 Cent War With “Snitch” Who Allegedly Stole From Liquor Brand Escalates In $4M Countersuit

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

50 Cent is facing legal trouble. Consultant Michael Caruso has filed a $4 million lawsuit claiming the rapper cut him out of a business deal with Sire Spirits without proper compensation.

The lawsuit alleges that Caruso’s company played a crucial role in launching and promoting Sire Spirits’ premium liquor brand starting in 2015, but he was short-changed regarding his promised ownership stake.

In court documents, Caruso states he devoted years of hard work and expertise to firmly establish the Sire Spirits brand within the fiercely competitive spirits industry.

“Mr. Caruso dedicated his time, expertise, and resources to ensure the success of Sire Spirits,” Caruso’s attorney, Paul J. Fishman, said, emphasizing Caruso’s significant contributions to the company.

Despite Caruso’s efforts, he swears he was ultimately excluded from the deal, receiving neither his due compensation nor his agreed-upon ownership stake.

Caruso, who once helped manage Wu-Tang Clan, makes several accusations against 50 Cent, pointing to forced unpaid services extended to the TV mogul, Sire Spirits and G-Unit.

Further, the lawsuit accuses 50 of wrongfully recording a phone conversation between Caruso and another individual without their consent, claiming it was an infringement of privacy and leveraged maliciously during legal proceedings, depositions and arbitration hearings.

Paul J. Fishman highlighted this in his statement saying, “This illegal recording was a clear violation of privacy and an attempt to gain an unfair advantage in legal proceedings. Mr. Caruso’s rights were maliciously disregarded, and he suffered damages as a result.”

Caruso seeks $4 million in damages for breach of contract, illegal wiretapping, and other related claims. His legal team asserts that the compensation sought accurately reflects the economic losses Caruso allegedly suffered.

50 Cent has not been shy about his disdain for Caruso, who was connected to Peter Gatien, the owner of the notorious Limelight nightclub in New York.

The rapper star blasted Caruso on social media and claimed he snitched on Gatien and cooperated with authorities to expose drug dealing at the club.

A post shared by 50 Cent (@50cent)

“This Fool been snitching since 1942 Don Julio!” 50 Cent wrote in a since deleted post. “You know he gonna tell on everybody. LOL @beamsuntory is f*cked, they was paying this guy Michael Caruso a half a million a year and him and his partner Julious Grant put this together. @beamsuntory @jimbeamofficial This is gonna make a great Tv show. @bransoncognac @lecheminduroi.”

This lawsuit has erupted in a preexisting context of legal disputes for 50 Cent, who is embroiled in another legal skirmish involving Beam Suntory Inc. related to fraud and embezzlement tied to his alcohol brands, including Sire Spirits, Le Chemin du Roi champagne, and Branson cognac.

In this separate dispute, Beam Suntory representatives Caruso and Julious Grant allegedly engaged in an embezzlement scheme with Mitchell Green, a consultant, suspected of manipulating product prices through secret fees and kickbacks, pocketing millions between 2015 and 2020.

Green was found guilty, and an arbitration panel determined that he must pay more than $6 million to 50 Cent’s company.

Despite obtaining the court judgment, Green filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, prompting 50 Cent to pursue personal assets, including the seizure of Green’s house to recover part of the $6.2 million judgment awarded.

Monica Laughs At “Older Lady” Confusing Her With Sexyy Red

A woman somehow mistook Monica for Sexyy Red at an airport. Monica recounted the fan’s funny mistake via Instagram Stories on Tuesday (May 14).

“Ok… This older lady literally chased me Down in the airport to say Good Morning Miss Sexyy Red May I pls have a Picture!” Monica wrote. “I hated to disappoint her but I said, ‘Mamm I love her, but I’m not Sexyy Red.’ LMAOOO now I can’t get the song out of my head!!! She was so disappointed LOL.”

Monica posted a picture of herself sporting red hair, providing a somewhat plausible explanation for how the fan got so confused. The situation amused the multi-platinum-selling singer. She included audio of Sexyy Red’s single “Get It Sexyy” in the post about the mix-up.

The humorous fan interaction occurred a few months after Monica called out Ray J. She expressed frustration with him publicly discussing the possibilities of a joint tour with “The Boy Is Mine” collaborator Brandy.

“Ray J, I’m kindly asking you to stop speaking on me in public!” Monica said. “A private conversation would be both necessary and respectful! Brandy is a LEGEND! She’s one of one with an extensive catalog that I deeply respect and a voice sent from heaven!”

She added, “The conversation being had without she and I is beginning to muddy the waters severely! She and I are both consummate professionals that share a massive recording as well as an entire era! Please allow this to remain positive and beautiful!”

Ray J apologized.

“Monica, if I said anything wrong, I apologize,” he said. “You are a great artist. You and Brandy have made history together. And all I want to do is just kind of shake it up a little bit to get y’all to see [the tour’s potential].”

Brandy and Monica released their hit single “The Boy Is Mine” in 1998. It spent 13 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Diddy Proclaims “Time Tells Truth” Amid Sexual Assault & Trafficking Allegations

By: Justin Ivey Updated Category: News

Diddy has become more active on social media despite looming allegations of sexual assault and trafficking. The Hip-Hop mogul suggested he will eventually be vindicated on Tuesday (May 14).

“Time tells truth,” he declared in an Instagram post.

Multiple women and producer Lil Rod sued Diddy for sexual assault. The Bad Boy Records founder’s ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura filed the first lawsuit against him in November 2023.

Ventura accused Diddy, whose real name is Sean Combs, of rape and years of abuse. The two quickly settled the case out of court. More women pursued legal action against Diddy in subsequent weeks.

Liza Gardner and a woman identified as Jane Doe accused Diddy of sexually assaulting them when they were minors. Gardner said he coerced her into having sex with him in the early ‘90s. Gardner’s lawsuit mentioned Diddy sexually assaulting her friend and implicated singer Aaron Hall.

“When Combs finished with Liza Gardner, he and Hall switched, and they commenced assaulting Liza Gardner’s friend,” the lawsuit alleged.

Jane Doe claimed Diddy, former Bad Boy Records executive Harve Pierre and a third person gang-raped her in 2003. The plaintiff said she was trafficked across state lines. Jane Doe’s complaint cited Ventura’s lawsuit, which included allegations of sex trafficking,

“Ms. Doe obviously understands that she too had been sex trafficked and that Mr. Combs’ behavior in forcing women into nonconsensual sex was not an isolated incident or unique only to Ms. Ventura,” Jane Doe’s complaint noted.

Joi Dickerson-Neal accused Diddy of drugging and sexually assaulting her in 1991. According to her lawsuit, he recorded the incident and showed the footage to other people.

Producer Lil Rod sued Diddy for sexual assault and much more in February 2024. Lil Rod’s lawsuit described Diddy as the leader of a “widespread and dangerous criminal sex trafficking organization.” Universal Music Group CEO Lucian Grainge was named a defendant in the lawsuit. Lil Rod’s lawyer dismissed the claims against Grainge in May.

Homeland Security raided Diddy’s homes as part of a federal investigation into sex trafficking allegations in March. So far, Diddy hasn’t been charged with any crimes.

Customers were willing to pay well over $1,000 for Mary J. Blige’s long-awaited line of boots. The Queen of Hip-Hop Soul partnered with designer Giuseppe Zanotti to release “The Mary Boot,” which sold out in 24 hours.

The sellout was notable since some fans initially complained about the price tag. The boots were sold for $1,295 on the Giuseppe Zanotti website.

“Born from the collaboration between iconic Italian designer, Giuseppe Zanotti, and multihyphenate award-winning artist, Mary J. Blige, The Mary Boot encapsulates the unique and celebrated styles of both talents,” the designer touted in a description of the boots. “Statement boots have long been associated as a signature of Mary’s style and through this collaboration, using striking and innovative design, fine materials, and attention to detail, the two have come together to make the Must Have style of the season. Discover the look inspired by the custom boots worn by the singer for her Strength of a Woman Festival and Summit.”

Blige’s Strength of a Woman Festival and Summit was held in New York on May 10-12. 50 Cent, Fat Joe, Lola Brooke, Jadakiss, Jill Scott appeared at the event.

Just a few weeks before the festival, Blige learned she would be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Her fellow 2024 inductees include A Tribe Called Quest, Cher, Ozzy Osbourne, Kool & The Gang, Peter Frampton, Foreigner and the Dave Matthews Band.

Childish Gambino Scores Big Win To Shut Down “This Is America” Lawsuit

By: Justin Ivey Updated Category: News
Preferred Source Publisher Button>

Donald Glover a.k.a. Childish Gambino secured another victory in a legal battle over his 2018 single “This Is America.” According to Billboard, an appeals court refused to let rapper Kidd Wes revive his copyright infringement lawsuit against Glover.

Kidd Wes, whose real name is Emelike Nwosuocha, sued Glover for copyright infringement in 2021. Kidd Wes claimed “This Is America” plagiarized his song “Made in America,” which dropped in 2016.

Judge Victor Marrero dismissed the lawsuit in 2023. Kidd Wess lost on a technicality by failing to copyright the underlying musical composition of his song, but the judge saw little merit in the lawsuit’s arguments.

“Even if [Kidd Wes] had a copyright registration for the composition … dismissal would be warranted here because the elements of [the] composition purportedly infringed upon are insufficiently original to warrant protection or because they are not substantially similar to the challenged Composition, the judge noted.

Kidd Wes filed an appeal. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit upheld Judge Marrero’s ruling on May 10.

“Nwosuocha’s problem is that his copyright registration is simply for the wrong work,” the court determined. “That distinction is important.”

The court’s decision likely ended the legal dispute. Kidd Wes would have to petition the Supreme Court to hear his case if he wanted to keep pursuing the lawsuit against Glover.

Glover surprised fans by dropping a Childish Gambino project titled Atavista on Sunday (May 12). He also teased a new album.

“ATAVISTA is streaming now,” he wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter). “this album is the finished version of 3.15.20, the album i put out 4 years ago. there’s a special vinyl coming soon w/ visuals for each song. the all new childish gambino album comes out in the summer.”

Glover announced a world tour following the release of Atavista. The tour is scheduled to begin in August and conclude in February 2025.

Akademiks Accused Of Rape & Defamation In Lawsuit

By: Justin Ivey Updated Category: News
Preferred Source Publisher Button>

Akademiks’ ex-girlfriend Fauziya “Ziya” Abashe sued him for rape and defamation. According to court documents obtained by Rolling Stone, Abashe claimed Akademiks and two other men raped her at his New Jersey home in 2022.

“I’m confident that justice will prevail and the veil will be removed so no other woman will have to endure what I did,” she declared in a statement.

Abashe said Akademiks invited her to his home after they had not seen each other in months. When she arrived, she encountered two unidentified men she didn’t know would be there. The two men allegedly drugged her before raping her.

The victim lost consciousness. She was allegedly woken up by Akademiks “pulling her hair, prying open her legs and brutally raping her” in a bedroom. Abashe said she begged him to stop as he violated her anally and vaginally. The lawsuit noted she was “crying for most of this assault but losing her ability to move physically.”

Abashe asked Akademiks, whose real name is Livingston Allen, what happened the next day. He allegedly showed her two condom wrappers in a trash can and surveillance footage of the two men raping her.

“According to Ms. Abashe, as she watched the video, she looked like she was just lying there lifeless, which did not sit right with her,” her lawsuit contended.

The lawsuit included text messages in which Akademiks encouraged Abashe to “get tested” and told her he would do the same. She claimed the texts proved he “engaged in unprotected sexual intercourse” with her on the night in question.

Abashe went to the police after speaking with her lawyer. Cops told her to go to the hospital for a rape kit. The exam found traces of Akademiks’ sperm. Abashe said she hadn’t slept with Akademiks in over a year before the alleged assault. Abashe returned to the police, who took photos of bruises on her body.

Akademiks “graphically” admitted to having sex with Abashe in a “recorded wire call,” per the lawsuit. Authorities obtained a warrant for the surveillance footage and additional evidence. Abashe accused Akademiks of trying to destroy evidence. The investigation was dropped when she “chose silence” instead of pressing charges against him.

Abashe changed her mind about pursuing legal action after details of the alleged assault emerged in 2023. Akademiks denied raping Abashe and said he was asleep when “she was getting trained by two mens on [his] pool deck.” Abashe sued him for defamation for “accusing her of voluntarily having an orgy with his friends at his home while maintaining that he never participated at all.”

Attorney Tyrone Blackburn is representing Abashe. Blackburn’s name should be familiar to Hip-Hop fans as he’s the lawyer behind Lil Rod’s explosive lawsuit against Diddy.

Snoop Dogg Promises To Bring The Funk During “The Voice”

Snoop Dogg and Michael Bublé are set to join “The Voice” for season 26.

On Monday, it was announced that the Hip-Hop icon and the singer-songwriter would be joining the NBC singing competition as coaches for its upcoming 26th season.

The duo will join returning coaches Reba McEntire, who has been on the show since 2023, and Gwen Stefani, who has been a coach on the show since 2014.

Both Bublé and Snoop Dogg have appeared on the show in the past.

Bublé served as an advisor to Blake Shelton’s team in season three, while Snoop appeared as a mega mentor in season 20.

The announcement was made at Radio City Music Hall in New York as part of NBCUniversal’s upfront presentation.

“Folks, we’ve got a rookie taking the chair. I can’t wait for him to join us – so I can beat him,” country star McEntire quipped on stage during the event. “Everyone please welcome the D-O-double-G, Snoop Dogg!”

Snoop then took to the stage to perform a rendition of his hit song “Gin and Juice.”

“Since Reba is the queen of The Voice who brings the sparkle, I can be the king who brings the style, the funk and the fun,” the rapper said after his performance.

Season 26 does not yet have a premiere date.

Rapsody Says Kendrick Lamar’s Strategic Moves Defeated Drake In Battle

The general public consensus declared Kendrick Lamar the winner in the pgLang founder’s highly-publicized war of words with Drake. North Carolina’s Rapsody also picked K. Dot as the victor.

Rapsody’s recent appearance on The Joe Budden Podcast included her discussing the battle. A clip of the conversation spread across social media.

“That’s when it started. It went bad-bad from there,” Rapsody stated about the release of Kendrick Lamar’s “6:16 in LA” on May 3. She also said, “It was so smart. Drake swung back. I didn’t think it was enough.”

Drake answered Lamar’s “euphoria” and “6:16 in LA” with the “Family Matters” song. Lamar quickly stepped on the hype for “Family Matters” by unleashing the scathing “meet the grahams” diss record less than an hour later.

“Kendrick was so strategic, he swallowed that s### up so fast because he responded so fast. And then he hit you with a banger… It’s just tough. You gotta study the art of war,” Rapsody added.

After “meet the grahams” landed on May 3, Kendrick Lamar fired back again with the “Not Like Us” single. That Mustard-produced track debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, giving Lamar his fourth chart-topper.

Rapsody worked with Kendrick Lamar on the single “Complexion (A Zulu Love)” off the To Pimp a Butterfly album. That 2015 studio LP won the Grammy Award for Best Rap Album.

Fans of Rapsody will get to hear her latest body of work, Please Don’t Cry, when the project hits DSPs on Friday (May 17). The former North Carolina State University student tapped Erykah Badu, Lil Wayne and more for the project. Check out “3 AM” featuring Badu below.

Snoop Dogg became one of the Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympics breakout stars because of his humorous coverage. The Hip-Hop legend teamed up with comedian Kevin Hart to present highlights from the event.

On Monday (May 13), Snoop Dogg stopped by The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to discuss the upcoming 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris. Both Snoop and Fallon showed up in Olympic-themed outfits.

“I wanna do something special with you over there, I don’t know what it is. Something musical. Something comedic,” Snoop told Jimmy Fallon. “[I’m] definitely looking forward to the horses.”

In 2021, a clip of Snoop Dogg and Kevin Hart reviewing the dressage competition went viral. Snoop’s comments about the horses “crip walking” led to more online jokes.

“I’m going to meet the horse in real life,” the Doggystyle album creator said on The Tonight Show. “He’s the returning champ so I gotta go meet him and let him know I’m a big fan.”

Snoop Dogg will also join NBC’s The Voice singing competition show as a judge. He previously appeared on music reality television programs such as Rhythm + Flow and American Song Contest.

The 2024 Summer Olympics begin on July 26 in Paris, France with the Opening Ceremony. The multi-sport Games of the XXXIII Olympiad will close out on August 11.

City Girls rapper Yung Miami announced the launch of her first-ever “The Gays” pride collection. According to the Florida native, the Caresha Please-branded merchandise celebrates the freedom and diversity within the LGBTQ+ community.

“In light of gay pride, I wanted to do something for the LGBTQ community,” Yung Miami states. “Which is a big part of my fan base, oftentimes I feel they’re left out so I wanted to celebrate and dedicate this collection to them to make sure they feel seen and heard.”

Yung Miami’s “The Gays” will drop on Friday, May 17. The “Act Up” hitmaker also says proceeds from sales of the collection will be donated to the GLAAD non-profit advocacy organization for LGBTQ programming.

Yung Miami hopes “The Gays” collection represents her commitment to celebrating diversity, acceptance and love. However, some critics took issue with the Quality Control Music recording artist marketing to the LGBTQ community.

“[Is] she the same person that said she would beat her son if he was gay?” one X user asked on the social media platform. Additionally, Someone else tweeted, “Lol I do not feel like this is genuine. I feel like she’s gay-baiting, and I hope y’all don’t fall for it.”

In a 2013 tweet, Yung Miami said she would “beat” her son for displaying gay tendencies. She later apologized for those comments which many people described as homophobic.

Percy “Master P” Miller has a history of being a professional basketball player. The Hip-Hop mogul joined the Continental Basketball Association and International Basketball League.

In addition, Master P played as part of the training camp roster for the NBA’s Charlotte Hornets and Toronto Raptors. The 54-year-old New Orleans native recently suggested a return to the NBA as a coach.

“I think we got a great team. I just think that maybe we got to wait a couple more years,” Master P told TMZ about his hometown’s Pelicans franchise. “We love our city.”

The New Orleans Pelicans finished the 2023/2024 season with a 49–33 record. The Zion Williamson-led team defeated the Sacramento Kings in the second game of the play-in tournament.

However, the Oklahoma City Thunder swept the Pelicans in the first round of the NBA playoffs. Master P added, “Y’all need to put me on the coaching staff next year and we gonna win the whole thing.”

Master P served as a coach for the P. Miller Ballers. The AAU team’s alumni include NBA stars Brandon Jennings, Lance Stephenson and DeMar DeRozan.

Mercy Miller, Percy Miller’s son, committed to the University of Houston on the collegiate level. The younger Miller is a 6’4″, 170-pound guard who played for Notre Dame High School.

Kendrick Lamar has the most popular song in America with a diss record directed at Drake. The Compton MC’s Mustard-produced “Not Like Us” opened at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

“Not Like Us” became Kendrick Lamar’s fourth No. 1 of his career. While K. Dot has remained silent about topping the Hot 100, Mustard addressed the single’s commercial success.

“Sometimes you really gotta pop out and show n#####!!!!” Mustard wrote on Instagram. “To think… They really fronted on me and acted like I’m not who I am! I’m thankful but not surprised.”

Additionally, Mustard wrote, “I never lost sight and stayed down. With my back against the wall is where I thrive. Summer started last week according to me!! See ya sooner than you think! cc: @kendricklamar city back up!!!”

Many Hip-Hop fans viewed “Not Like Us” as the knockout blow that ended the Kendrick Lamar versus Drake feud. The three-month-long song battle also produced three other diss tracks that reached the Hot 100’s Top 10.

Kendrick Lamar’s “Euphoria” rose to No. 3. His featured verse on Future and Metro Boomin’s “Like That” also earned Lamar a No. 6 placement. Drake’s “Family Matters” landed at No. 7.

UK Rapper Ambush Claims He Was Jumped By 10 Men, Calls Out Blogger For One-On-One

North London rapper Ambush is calling on a blogger to fight him or pay up after they got into a brawl at a recent boxing event. 

Footage from the bash shows Ambush talking to U.K. media entrepreneur Antony “Antz” Robb, founder of the popular blog imjustbait, before the chaos erupts.   

The conversation appeared cordial enough but soon turned hostile after Ambush blamed Antz for the nine months he recently spent behind bars. He also claimed Antz owes him £300,000 (approximately $376K). 

“I say we fight, bro,” Ambush told Antz, who rejected the rapper’s claims. After a brief back and forth, the pair agreed to fight “right now” before things went left. Several men crowd them, and punches begin flying. The fight descends into a brawl as multiple people get involved, and chairs are hurled across the room before security eventually restores order. 

Ambush Claims 10 Men Jumped Him

On Monday (May 1) Ambush shared a video explaining what led to the fight. He also accused 10 men of jumping him and challenged Antz to give him a fair one or pay up.  

“Obviously it looked worse than it was,” he said. “As you can see I’m unscathed. The only f###### thing I got is a cut on my hand from boxing these n#####.” 

He continued, “I got to have a one on one. You got to fight me now bro because it’s the  honorable thing to do. I’m just trying to show the youth, put your fists up, put the knives down.” 

According to Ambush, he and Antz can resolve their differences with a fight and a chat or he can pay up.  

“Ain’t nothing that can’t be resolved with a straightener and a conversation,” he concluded. “Or a bit of [cash.]” 

Ambush spent nine months in jail on remand at the height of his career following a fight at one of Antz’s parties. After getting out, he claimed he missed out on £300,000 in shows and endorsements.
