T-Pain & His Wife Were On Stream During SpaceX Rocket Explosion: “That Was Crazy”

T-Pain unknowingly witnessed a historic but unfortunate moment during a live stream when SpaceX’s latest Starship rocket launch ended in failure.

The “Bartender” singer was casually engaging with his chat when he noticed something unusual in the sky, leading to an unfiltered, real-time reaction to the incident. T-Pain shared a brief clip on Instagram capturing the moment the rocket’s flight path came into view for he and his wife during their maritime getaway.

“We saw the SpaceX launch fail from the yacht!!! That was crazy,” T-Pain wrote in the caption of the post.

In the video itself, T-Pain’s demeanor teetered back and forth between genuine excitement to concern once the weight of the situation was uncovered by his viewers.

“Okay, what the f### is this?” T-Pain asked as he spotted the spectacle. “Chat, what the f### is going on over there?”

His curiosity quickly turned into recognition as he realized what he was watching.

“Oh, is that a SpaceX launch?” he questioned. “It look like a launch… Yeah, I think it is a launch.”

At first, he marveled at the rocket’s speed and its apparent success.

“It’s moving fast as s###,” he remarked.

As he continued to observe, he noted key moments of the launch process.

“I’m not moving the camera, chat… Oh, you can see the boosters falling off and everything,” he said. “Oh, there’s boosters falling off and s###… Yo, look at that f###### s### falling off.”

However, the awe-factor quickly diminished as he listened to updates about the ship’s stability.

“Yo, look at all that s###… Yo, this s### is moving so fast, bro,” he said.

Soon after T-Pain’s comments, the launch feed confirmed what had happened. “And at this point, we’ve essentially lost contact with the ship… We’re no longer receiving telemetry at this moment,” the broadcast stated.

T-Pain could hardly believe what he was witnessing.

“Yo, that’s crazy! Yo, that’s nuts,” he said in shock. “Wait, is it coming back down? Hey, it’s going down, right? Where’s the rest of it? Where’s the one that keeps going?”

Moments later, he received confirmation of the explosion from his stream viewers. “They said it did blow up…,” his wife said, to which T-Pain replied, “Oh, it did blow up? That wasn’t normal. Did we just catch a f###### SpaceX crash?”

T-Pain and his viewers weren’t the only ones caught off guard by the dramatic turn of events. SpaceX’s Starship, in its eighth test launch on Thursday, successfully made it into space before experiencing a critical failure. According to TMZ, the SpaceX crew lost “attitude control” of the ship and only two of its six engines were operating properly.

As debris from the failed launch began to fall, air traffic controllers scrambled to reroute flights away from impacted areas over the Bahamas. The incident drew comparisons to another test launch failure in January, where debris rained down in a similar location.

While SpaceX has yet to pinpoint the exact cause of the “rapid unscheduled disassembly,” as they described it, the mishap is unlikely to sit well with Elon Musk. The company will likely conduct a thorough investigation, but for now, it’s clear that this latest launch attempt fell far short of expectations.

Taxstone Caught Throwing Rope Out Of Prison To Smuggle In Contraband

Taxstone allegedly masterminded an old-school smuggling scheme involving contraband and a rope tossed out of a window at MDC-Brooklyn prison, authorities have revealed.

The popular podcast personality, whose real name is Daryl Campbell, faces accusations alongside co-defendants Ian Diez, Jonathan Guerrero, Abel Mora and Mayovanex Rodriguez for allegedly hatching a plot to bring illegal items into the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn.

According to federal prosecutors, between April and June 2024, Taxstone utilized an illegally obtained cell phone from within MDC-Brooklyn to coordinate with accomplices outside the facility.

Authorities obtained voice recordings allegedly featuring Taxstone clearly describing a throwback smuggling technique: tossing a makeshift “line” out of a prison window to allow conspirators on the outside to attach prohibited items, which would then be reeled back into the institution.

The plot unraveled dramatically on June 30, 2024, when Diez, Guerrero, Mora and Rodriguez allegedly attempted to execute Taxstone’s plan.

Correctional staff spotted the group pulling a rope into the recreation room of their cell block.

When officers intervened, they discovered a cache of contraband dangling at the rope’s end, including marijuana, suboxone strips, a scalpel, cigarettes, lighters and a cellphone charger.

Federal prosecutors charge the defendants with conspiracy to smuggle contraband, an offense carrying a maximum penalty of up to 10 years behind bars if convicted. Assistant U.S. Attorneys Russell Noble and Elizabeth D’Antonio are leading the prosecution effort.

Taxstone, once a prominent voice in the Hip-Hop podcasting scene, initially rose to fame through his frank and gritty commentary on the popular “Tax Season” podcast.

His career took a dramatic turn in 2016 following a deadly altercation.

In January 2017, Taxstone was arrested in connection with the fatal shooting of Ronald McPhatter, a bodyguard for Brooklyn rapper Troy Ave, during a backstage confrontation at a T.I. concert at Irving Plaza in Manhattan.

After a high-profile trial, Taxstone was convicted of first-degree manslaughter and weapons charges in March 2023. He received a 35-year prison sentence in June 2023, effectively ending his promising media career.

6 Things for Sex Doll Beginners

Adult Love dolls have become increasingly popular in recent years, especially in the context of technological advances and the gradual liberalization of social attitudes. With the improvement of TPE and silicone materials, modern sex dolls are close to real people in appearance, touch and function, providing users with a safe, private and stress-free intimate experience. Market data shows that the physical doll industry is growing steadily, with rising demand especially in the Japanese, European, American and Chinese markets. Whether they are singles, explorers in a partnership, or people with special needs, physical dolls have become an important companion and emotional support tool for them. However, choosing a suitable sex doll can be confusing for newbies. To help beginners make an informed choice, this article will detail the key factors to keep in mind when purchasing a sex doll, including material, size, weight, realism, customizability, price, storage options, and maintenance methods.

1. Choosing the right material

Physical dolls are made of two main materials, medical grade TPE and silicone. TPE sex dolls are known to be less expensive, soft to the touch, elastic and simulate real skin. It requires regular care and is prone to attract dust and stains. Be careful with TPE dolls, don’t overstretch them or it may lead to tearing easily damaging the doll. Sex dolls made of silicone are more durable, have a more delicate texture and are easy to clean. Silicone dolls are generally more expensive, harder to the touch and less elastic compared to TPE. Suitable for doll enthusiasts who seek the high quality of fine sculpture and a more realistic experience.

Beginner’s advice: If you have a limited budget and want a softer touch, TPE is a better choice. If more concerned about durability and detailed performance, silicone dolls may be more suitable.

SIGNS: Rep. Al Green To File Trump Impeachment Articles Following Removal From Joint Session

Congressman Al Green has revealed his plans to file articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump over his recent conduct.

During Donald Trump’s joint session speech to Congress on March 4, Rep. Al Green, D-Texas, was forcibly removed after voicing his opposition to the president’s claims of having a political mandate. Days later on March 7, the Republican-controlled house voted to censure Green over the incident. Now, Green is speaking out about the experience in a new interview with TMZ, during which he has revealed his plans to retaliate politically.

“My intentionality was to walk out,” Green said, providing context for his actions during his tense exchange with Trump. “I gathered my coat, I had my cane, and I was going to make my departure.”

However, as Trump doubled down on his claim of having a mandate, Green said he was “caught up in the moment.” Turning toward the president, he shouted, “You don’t have a mandate to cut Medicaid.”

Green revealed that House Speaker Mike Johnson attempted to silence him with repeated admonishments. When he refused to back down, he was ultimately escorted out of the chamber. Despite the removal, Green said, “The people who escorted me out were very kind. I hold no animus toward the speaker. He did what the rules required.”

While Green was forced out, Trump continued his speech, taking jabs at his opponents.

“The president, that evening, called the Democratic members of Congress lunatics on national TV,” Green said. “He did so, and he has not been reprimanded. He won’t be censured. He uses incivility to take advantage of our civility.”

One of the most shocking moments of the night, according to Green, was when Trump insulted a sitting senator by referring to her as “Pocahontas.” Green did not hold back in condemning the remark.

“I know who the senator is,” he said. “I have such great respect for her. This was the president using his incivility against civility. He does this quite often.”

In the wake of his removal, speculation has grown that the Freedom Caucus may seek to strip Green of his committee assignments as retribution. When asked about how the move may affect him, Green responded defiantly.

“I am here to serve the people of the Ninth Congressional District,” he said. “I would hope that they wouldn’t. I would not agree with it.”

Green then made a bombshell announcement—he is preparing to introduce articles of impeachment against Trump. “But if they do, it’ll give me more time to work on my articles of impeachment.”

He doubled down on his determination when pressed about whether or not he was seriously considering the move.

“I am absolutely going to do it,” he said. “This level of incivility emanating from the presidency, much of it in policy, is something we cannot tolerate,” he declared.

He went on to argue that if former President Barack Obama had conducted himself in a similar manner, he would have been impeached without hesitation.

“He is a Goliath, but there are 435 Davids in Congress,” he said. “I’m one of them, and I’m going to bring articles of impeachment.”

While the articles will not be directly based on Trump’s speech, he made it clear that the president’s pattern of behavior has reached a breaking point.

“What he said to the members and to the senator was unacceptable, and that’s incivility,” he said. “We cannot allow him to just continue to step on us like that and not have some reasonable, righteous retort.”

Megan Thee Stallion’s Risky Red Carpet Look: Redefining “Hot Girl” Fashion At 2025 Oscars

AllHipHop examines the controversy with Megan Thee Stallion, her dress and how women are pushing the boundaries of fashion.

Red carpets have long been a battleground for creative expression but few artists wield them as powerfully as Megan Thee Stallion. At the 2025 Vanity Fair Oscar Party, she stunned in a figure-hugging, emerald green Chanel gown with feathers and nipple pasties—an unexpected take on her signature “hot girl” aesthetic.

In an era where female rappers are pushing the boundaries of style more than ever, Megan’s choice wasn’t just fashion-forward; it was a strategic, brand-defining moment that showcased her ability to blend sultry confidence with high-fashion sophistication.

At first glance, some critics, including Sherri Shepherd, dismissed the look as simply “not being it.” But a closer examination reveals a deeper narrative. This wasn’t Megan compromising her brand; she was proving that “hot girl” culture can exude class just as effortlessly as it does boldness. The silhouette of the gown—cinched at the waist and sculpted to perfection—echoed Megan’s signature body-positive ethos, while the deep green color added an unexpected touch of opulence and regality.

Megan’s Vanity Fair moment evokes another iconic rap fashion statement—Lil’ Kim’s unforgettable purple jumpsuit at the 1999 MTV VMAs. At the time, Lil’ Kim’s pasty-adorned ensemble shocked audiences, yet it was an undeniable power move, asserting her dominance in both music and fashion.

Megan, too, is making a statement but in her own way. Rather than going for shock value, she opts for subtlety, proving that a rap superstar can command a room with both raw sex appeal and timeless grace. Both moments highlight how female rappers use fashion to reinforce their brand, though the industry and audience often fail to recognize it as intentional artistry rather than mere provocation.

The pushback is nothing new. Despite female rap artists being at their most innovative with red carpet style, their choices are still frequently met with skepticism. Whether it’s Cardi B’s avant-garde couture, Doja Cat’s surrealist looks or Megan’s blend of high-fashion and Houston flair, the reception often swings between over-sexualized criticism or dismissal of their stylistic choices as tasteless. What many miss is how these women are redefining what it means to be both a rap star and a fashion icon, weaving their personal brands into the visual language of luxury and creativity.

Megan Thee Stallion’s 2025 Vanity Fair Oscar look was truly elegant. It wasn’t a departure from her “hot girl” roots but rather an elevation of them—proving that confidence, sensuality, and class can coexist. Like Lil’ Kim’s 1999 moment, Megan’s Chanel dress was more than just an outfit; it was a continued declaration that female rappers own their narrative, in music, fashion and beyond.

Legendary NBA Games That Changed Basketball History

These are the NBA games that settled championships and changed basketball for eternity. Pure magic, indelible performances, and history-making plays are the memories that defined basketball for generations. Such contests are not just entertainment; they reshape the perspectives of players, coaches, and even fans for eons to come. 

The Birth of a Dynasty – 1980 NBA Finals, Game 6

There was no reason why Magic Johnson was supposed to play center. The 20-year-old rookie was under the halo of invincibility, but it was Johnson whose status as unto dominance followed the injury of Kareem Abdul Jabbar. Johnson schooled five positions, scoring 42 points, grabbing 15 rebounds, and dishing seven assists. He is a legend because of his versatility and his ability to show his best when the pressure is on, just like those who know how to take advantage of the best opportunities, be on the court, or be in betting with Melbet promocode. The Lakers crushed the 76ers 123-107 on the way to the first of five titles in the ’80s with such a beating. 

It was not basketball; it was the birth of “Showtime.” Showtime passes, quickness, fast breaks. The Lakers put on quite a show and entertainment that would go down as one of the best shows and entertainment ever played in the game. This was not a win; this was a revolution.

The First Triple-Overtime Finals Thriller – 1976 NBA Finals, Game 5

Said to be the most bizarre Finals game ever, the Phoenix Suns and Boston Celtics had it all. A pure, uncontrollable drama that spanned three overtimes. Some key unforgettable moments include:

  • Gar Heard: “Shot Heard’ Round the World”: With one second left in the second overtime, Heard hit an impossible jumper to force a third overtime.
  • Erroneous referee-induced near riot: An error on the clock caused wild fans to rush the court nearly a minute too soon.
  • Dave Cowens’ ending dominance: The Celtics’ center played 60 minutes long as he outlasted everyone to lead Boston to a 128-126 win. 

This game meaningfully redefined how to fight for a championship. 

Defining a New Era – 1998 NBA Finals, Game 6

One shot. One steal. Furthermore, one moment that sealed a legacy. The Chicago Bulls fought the Utah Jazz for the title of basketball champions while preparing to complete their second successful three-year win streak. The end of this era came to a close through the final game of the Finals against Utah Jazz.

Jordan’s Last Shot

The Jazz were up 86-85 with 10 seconds left. Then, Jordan just went ahead and did it: he read Malone’s move, stole the ball, and walked into history. He dribbled over to his spot, gave a subtle push-off to Bryon Russell, and rose for the jumper. The ball just hung there in the air— swish—bulls 87, Jazz 86. 

And that wasn’t just the game-winner; that was pure perfection! The man had 45 decisive points as he carried the Bulls. This was his last shot in a Bulls uniform—a moment almost too immaculate to be accurate.

The Impact on Future Generations

Jordan’s ability to dominate in pressure moments became the standard for every star who came after him. Bryant studied him, all of his movements. LeBron tried to build his career by chasing that level of clutch.

The Jordan Effect was not only about skill; it was about belief. You only wanted one player with the ball when the game was on the line. These Finals proved that legends don’t just win—they define eras. 

The Greatest Comeback – 2016 NBA Finals, Game 7

No one had erased a 3-1 Finals deficit in the history of the NBA—until the Cavs did it. In the most crucial game of his career, LeBron put on a show. With 27 points, 11 rebounds, and 11 assists, he became the first player in Finals history to lead both teams in every major statistical category. But the moment to define all moments? The Block. 

Andre Iguodala was off for a breakaway layup with less than two minutes to go in a tied game. Out of nowhere, LeBron flew in and erased it. Then, Kyrie Irving iced the game with a three-pointer over Stephen Curry. The final score is 93-89. The Cavs ended a 52-year championship drought and crowned a new king of the NBA.

The Legacy of These Historic Battles

These games will inspire future generations to believe that moments like these make legends. The reverberations of these games are still felt in the modern era, reminding us of what basketball intensely is: a story of resilience and brilliance.

Pras Michel Pleads For Donald Trump’s Mercy After Conviction

Pras Michel has dreams of presidential clemency from behind bars after his high-profile extortion conviction and now he’s is once again turning to Donald Trump for a helping hand.

Speaking candidly to TMZ from his jail cell, the 52-year-old Grammy-winning rapper from the legendary Hip-Hop trio Fugees recently admitted he and his legal team are actively seeking a pardon from President Trump following his dramatic 2023 conviction in a $100 million extortion scandal.

“It’s not a secret, you know, we working on a pardon,” Michel plainly revealed, openly acknowledging his hopes rest on the newly inaugurated president.

When TMZ asked if he had a specific message for the commander-in-chief, Michel didn’t hesitate to profess his positive feelings for Trump.

“At the end of the day, there’s always going to be love for any president, no matter what, and he’s the current president and you know, look to him,” Michel explained. “And all we can do is wish that, you know, wish the best for him and we all gotta play our part… so big up to him and everything he got going on and obviously I hope he turn an eye on me, obviously.”

Michel also emphasized the timing, noting that Trump’s presidency was barely underway.

“It’s only been what, 60-something days whatever it is, so you know, we just gotta stand by him,” Michel stated optimistically.

The rapper’s current circumstances are a far cry from his Hip-Hop heyday, marked by chart-topping hits and global stardom.

Earlier this year, Michel was convicted on ten counts, including conspiracy and operating as an unregistered foreign agent, after a high-stakes three-week trial exposed his involvement in an international scheme worth millions.

Now awaiting sentencing, Michel’s future hangs precariously in the balance. The irony of Michel’s current predicament is striking.

He was convicted after being caught up in the 1MDB scandal, which involved the theft of billions of dollars from the Malaysian government.

Jho Low, a disgraced financier currently wanted for his role in the scandal, allegedly provided Pras with ill-gotten money, which he then used to make political donations.

Pras was accused of making contributions through straw donors in an attempt to gain influence with high-ranking officials, including former Presidents Barack Obama and Donald Trump, in hopes of dropping an investigation into Low.

Hannah Berner Apologizes To Megan Thee Stallion Over “Microagression”

Hannah Berner found herself in hot water after a seemingly casual remark during a star-studded Vanity Fair Oscars Party chat with rapper Megan Thee Stallion and her Giggly Squad podcast co-host Paige DeSorbo on March 2.

What began as a celebration of Hollywood’s elite took an unexpected twist when Berner playfully admitted to the “Hot Girl Summer” rapper that she blasts Megan’s tracks whenever she feels the urge to “fight someone.”

Berner said that Megan’s music motivates her to fight when people are “talking s###.”

Megan humorously replied, “Because you want to throw that fighting s### out the window, and you want to get cute and be a bad b####.”

The comedian’s off-the-cuff statement quickly ignited social media outrage, with numerous critics branding her words as insensitive and labeling them a “microaggression.”

As backlash mounted across digital platforms, Berner responded swiftly, addressing the controversy head-on through her Instagram Stories on Thursday.

Expressing regret over her choice of words, the 33-year-old comedian didn’t hold back in her heartfelt apology to Megan.

“Interviewing Megan Thee Stallion was a dream of mine,” Berner wrote candidly. “I love her music and it’s my go to whenever I need to boost my confidence before a show. Looking back at the interview, I wish I used any other word except ‘fight’ to describe how her songs impact me.”

Berner further emphasized her intention to learn from the incident and vowed to choose her words more thoughtfully moving forward.

“It was a careless choice of words and there was no ill intent,” she continued. “I recognize and acknowledge that what I said has a deeper meaning and I am so sorry to Megan. I appreciate everyone who brought this to my attention.”

While Megan Thee Stallion has not responded publicly to Berner’s apology, the rapper appeared unfazed and even amused during the original interview exchange.

LeBron James Presses Stephen A. Smith In Heated Courtside Confrontation 

LeBron James didn’t hold back when confronting Stephen A. Smith after the Los Angeles Lakers’ win over the New York Knicks Thursday night (March 6). 

Footage of the NBA legend yelling at the veteran sportscaster courtside surfaced online following the game. James gets in Smith’s face, giving him a stern talking-to before walking off.  

Social media users speculated James went after Smith over his criticism of his son Bronny, with lipreaders online claiming he said, “Keep my son out of this s###.” 

The clip went viral as fans chimed in on the situation, with some claiming that Smith clammed up when confronted by James in contrast to his criticism on First Take

“LeBron pressing n##### in person now? LMAO. Notice how Stephen A isn’t doing all that yelling and screaming that he does on TV,” one person tweeted. “It’s DIFFERENT when you got a p##### off 6’9 / 250lb dude right in front of you. These analysts & ex-player podcasters ain’t really with the s####.” 

Other users shared clips of Smith criticizing James and his son. 

Last month, Smith claimed James’ agency, Klutch Sports, contacted him over his takes on Bronny. 

Smith stated, “Never before has it been more ridiculous than it is right now,” and clarified that he didn’t oppose Bronny playing in the season opener with LeBron, calling it a “phenomenal moment.”  

However, Smith maintained that Bronny wasn’t ready for more play. “That should’ve been the only moment we saw Bronny James in a Lakers uniform this season,” he asserted.

While he believes Bronny has potential, Smith added, “I think the kid will be in the NBA one day… he’s gonna be fine — eventually.”

 

Bhad Bhabie Targeted In Attempted Home Invasion Shortly After Boyfriend Shot 

Bhad Bhabie was reportedly targeted in an attempted break-in, as three armed men allegedly tried to force their way into her Los Angeles home—just a day after her boyfriend was shot in the hand. 

The attempted home invasion went down in broad daylight on Thursday afternoon (March 6), with the men trying to enter the home through a side door, per TMZ. The gunmen fled after the “Gucci Flip Flops” hitmaker called the police. However, the goons had left by the time cops arrived on the scene.  

Authorities told the outlet that the intruders showed up just moments after Bhad Bhabie’s boyfriend, Le Vaughn—the father of her young daughter—arrived home. 

Meanwhile, Le Vaughn was reportedly injured in a shooting early Wednesday morning (March 5). 

Gunfire erupted after a fight between two groups broke out at an L.A. strip club. The shooting spilled outside the club and two people were struck in the chaos. Le Vaughn was shot in the hand, while an unnamed man was struck in the shoulder.   

Both men were transported to the hospital, where they were treated for non-life-threatening injuries.   

Police tried to apprehend an unidentified suspect driving a white Mercedes G-Wagon, but they escaped. Detectives are yet to make any arrests in connection with the shooting. 

Le Vaughn was later discharged from the hospital on Wednesday.

He shared an update with his fans, posting a hospital bed selfie on Instagram. Despite the shooting, he seemed relaxed, showing off his bandaged hand in the video.

G$ Lil Ronnie & Daughter’s Murders: Suspect Arrested As Manhunt Continues For Second Killer 

One of two suspects wanted for the brutal murder of rapper G$ Lil Ronnie and his 5-year-old daughter is in police custody, authorities in Forest Hill, Texas, confirmed. 

FOX 4 reports Forest Hill Police Chief David Hernandez confirmed 24-year-old Adonis Robinson was arrested Thursday afternoon (March 6), in Livingston, Texas. 

Authorities previously identified Robinson alongside 21-year-old Jakobe Russell as suspects in the fatal shooting. Russell is still at large and police have warned he is armed and dangerous. 

Local police are urging the public to assist in their capture as the community reels from the tragedy. 

The shooting occurred shortly before 11 a.m. local time Monday (March 3), at Slappy’s Car Wash in Forest Hill. Cops discovered Lil Ronnie, born Ronnie Sibley, and his daughter dead at the scene. Leaked footage shows the rapper trying to run away while bullets flew.

The motive for the deadly shooting is still unknown. Investigators are still examining whether Lil Ronnie’s music or social media presence played a role in the shooting.  

“Based on the music industry that he’s a part of, it is all part of the investigation,” Hernandez explained at a press conference earlier this week. “Everything that’s being put out is being reviewed and analyzed by the Texas Rangers, so we don’t have any specific motive at this time.” 

Yella Beezy Denies Knowing Lil Ronnie Murder Suspect

Meanwhile, fellow Texas rapper Yella Beezy denied knowing one of the suspects after an image of him posing with one surfaced online.

Tory Lanez Claims He “Protected” Megan Thee Stallion On Explosive New Album 

Tory Lanez isn’t pulling any punches on his new album, PETERSON, dissing Roc Nation, his former attorney, and once again bashing Megan Thee Stallion— even implying that he “protected” her from going to prison.  

The 20-track project, recorded from behind bars, dropped on Friday (March 7) and finds the rapper/singer airing out his grievances, particularly his legal woes. 

On “Verdict Day,” Lanez continues to attack his former attorney, Shawn Holley, who quit before trial, claiming, “She was in bed with my opposition,” and implying she was paid by Megan Thee Stallion and her management company, Roc Nation. 

He also fires shots at Holey over the DNA evidence in the trial and accuses her of deliberately “losing my bail hearings” and “working for my accuser.” 

Lanez claims Roc Nation had “my lawyer in y’all pocket” and alleges Holley fed the label information, adding, “And that’s why Megan always talked like jail was certain for me.” 

Holley previously dismissed Lanez’s allegations as “meritless claims,” that were “summarily rejected” by the state bar.  

Lanez also targets Megan on “My Shayla” using an AI-generated audio clip of Donald Trump calling for his freedom.  

“They made him the poster child for unprotecting a Black woman,” fake Trump asserts. “But the irony of it is, he protected to Black women that night, one from going to jail and one from getting shot. I think it’s time you let that boy back outside.” 

Tory Lanez Claims He’s Got “Evidence” Against Roc Nation

He later references Megan’s lawsuit against blogger Milagro Gramz, who he accuses Lanez of using to harass her from behind bars.  

“Roc Nation coming for Milagro,” he says. “If I was petty I would countersue, because I got evidence.” 

However, Megan Thee Stallion fans are accusing Tory Lanez of continuing to harass her by targeting her on the album. Listen to the album and check out some reactions to the project and its trailer at the end of the page.  

Meanwhile, Megan was recently granted a five-year restraining order against Tory Lanez. Additionally, a judge approved her request to depose the Canadian artist as part of her ongoing lawsuit against Gramz.   

SIGNS: Sibling Of Controversial Australian Olympic Breakdancer Charged For Crypto Fraud

The family of the controversial Olympian breakdancer Rachael “Raygun” Gunn will unfortunately have to deal with increased public scrutiny of one of the relatives once again following the arrest of her brother.

According to New York Post, Brandon Gunn has been charged in Australia for allegedly handling more than $100,000 in proceeds from a crypto-related crime. Gunn, a director at Mormarkets Pty Ltd, is accused of dealing with two bank checks containing funds from three investors who believed they were converting their money into cryptocurrency. According to the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC), these deposits, totaling $181,000, were part of fraudulent investment schemes.

“It is alleged that Mr. Gunn dealt with two bank checks, which contained the proceeds of four investment amounts totaling $181,000 made by three victim investors who deposited funds for conversion to cryptocurrency,” ASIC stated.

Authorities further claim that Gunn repeatedly attempted to open new bank accounts for Mormarkets despite warnings and closures by financial institutions due to suspected fraudulent activity.

“On behalf of Mormarkets Pty Ltd, Mr Gunn (allegedly) sought to open a series of bank accounts on an ongoing basis to receive and transfer deposits, despite bank accounts being repeatedly closed due to concerns about scams and Mr Gunn being informed of these concerns,” the ASIC statement added.

Gunn appeared in Downing Centre Local Court on Tuesday and faces a maximum penalty of three years in prison, a $37,800 fine, or both if convicted.

ASIC chairman Joe Longo emphasized the agency’s commitment to cracking down on financial scams.

“ASIC continues to prioritize scam prevention and detection activity to protect consumers,” Longo said. “We will continue to partner with international law enforcement organizations and investigate and take action where we see misconduct.”

Raygu is not alleged to have any involvement in her brother’s case, but the scandal has drawn renewed attention to the controversy surrounding her own career.

Raygun rose to fame at the 2024 Paris Olympics when breakdancing made its Olympic debut. Her performance was widely criticized, sparking debate over her qualifications and the legitimacy of her selection. She later appeared on “The Jimmy & Nath Show” and “The Project,” where she clarified that she was stepping away from competitive breaking but was not retiring from the art form altogether.

“Raygun’s not retiring…I was talking about competing, and, yeah, I don’t really see myself competing anymore,” Raygun said. “And then, like global news, Raygun is retiring, and it just was gotten a little bit out of hand.”

Despite facing widespread backlash, including conspiracy theories questioning her selection, Raygun defended her credentials and status as Australia’s top-ranked B-Girl for several years.

Throughout the controversy, her brother publicly stood by her.

On August 10, 2024, he posted on X: “Could not be prouder of my amazing sister #raygun aka Rachael Gunn who did an incredible job competing in a brand new Olympic sport representing this great country. You will always be a winner to me.”

Brandon Gunn is set to return to court on April 29 as ASIC continues its investigation into the crypto fraud case.

Ye Says His New Album Has “Antisemitic Sound”

Ye ignited controversy once again Thursday night (March 6) after teasing his upcoming album with a bizarre new description on his X account, referring to the project as having an “antisemitic sound.”

“This next album got that antisemitic sound,” Ye wrote in the eyebrow-raising post. “My new sound called antisemitic.”

Once again, Ye appears to be doubling down on his recent string of troubling statements despite previously attempting to walk back some of his more inflammatory rhetoric.

Ye said that his new album has quite a unique sound - an "antisemitic sound" sparking a fresh new wave of criticism.

He has spent the past month under intense scrutiny after repeatedly making antisemitic comments and later clarifying that he “wasn’t a Nazi.”

It’s unclear if this new provocative messaging is directly tied to the rollout of Bully, an album Ye has repeatedly teased over the past few months, hinting at a 2025 release.

His penchant for sparking controversy has frequently overshadowed his musical output and left the public guessing his true intentions. Ye’s troubling history with antisemitic sentiments stretches back several years.

CNN previously reported that a former employee revealed Ye allegedly wanted to title his 2018 album after Adolf Hitler, expressing admiration for the Nazi leader’s influence and power.

“He would praise Hitler by saying how incredible it was that he was able to accumulate so much power and would talk about all the great things he and the Nazi Party achieved for the German people,” the employee said.

Bill Murray Says Ol’ Dirty Bastard Put Him On To Kelis + Dating Rumors Boosted His Street Cred

Bill Murray has been a Hollywood legend for decades but according to him, a viral dating rumor with Kelis gave his reputation an unexpected boost.

During a recent interview on Sway’s Universe, Murray reflected on how speculation about a romance with the “Milkshake” singer in 2023 raised his stock in ways he never saw coming. For those with a fuzzy memory, Kelis and Murray began trending on the internet in June of that same year after the pair were photographed together. Murray’s initial remarks on the saga were quite rosy and showed how much he appreciated the uptick in media coverage he recieved.

“I met this girl named Kelis—which I got great press that I was dating her, which really raised my cred a lot,” Murray admitted.

Sway and his co-hosts questioned whether he truly believed the rumor had that much impact, but Murray doubled down, brushing off any false modesty. In doing so, he revealed that his introduction to Kelis didn’t come from the gossip columns, but rather started with Ol’ Dirty Bastard’s 1999 hit “Got Your Money” which Kelis is notably featured on..

“Anyway, that particular song, Ol’ Dirty Bastard, that song just kills me,” he said. “I love that video, and I kept going, ‘That’s the silliest thing. How did I miss that when it came out in the first place?’”

Once he finally caught up, the music video had him hooked—not just on the track, but on the mysterious woman with fiery red hair.

“Who is the girl with the red hair?” he recalled asking. “And it was Kelis. So I just had to meet her sometime.”

According to the Ghostbusters star, their interactions left him impressed. He revealed that he recently spoke to Kelis and learned about her latest endeavors, which include purchasing land in Kenya to start a farm.

“She is not afraid of the dark,” he said. “She just goes out there and goes, ‘Well, I think I’ll just go to Africa and start a farm,’ Yeah, she’s amazing.”

Sway pressed Murray on whether there was ever any truth to the dating rumors, and he quickly shut it down.

“No,” he stated plainly.

Kelis also previously shut down the rumors after she shared a sultry Instagram photo of herself in the ocean wearing a colorful two-piece bikini. The comment section blew up with inquiring minds who were desperate to find out if the rumors were true. One commenter wrote, “Ma’am would you care to address these Bill Murray allegations?!? Cuz damn! What he doing with all that?!?” Kelis actually responded and said, “lol no babe, I wouldn’t bother at all.”

Still, Murray left the door open for some future plot twists.

“One of us could be on the rebound any second,” he joked. “You never know. She might need a plow man down there.”

Judge Warns T.I. He’s Going To Toss Case For Not Serving Sabrina Peterson

A federal judge has warned rapper Clifford “T.I.” Harris that the defamation lawsuit linked to Sabrina Peterson could be dismissed due to the plaintiff not being properly served with her court documents.

On Thursday (March 6) during a hearing in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, Judge Fernando M. Olguin issued an Order to Show Cause, citing lack of prosecution in the case. According to a court document obtained by AllHipHop, T.I. has yet to provide proof of service of the summons and complaint to Peterson, a requirement that must be fulfilled within 90 days of filing.

“Absent a showing of good cause, an action must be dismissed without prejudice if the summons and complaint are not served on a defendant within 90 days after the complaint is filed,” the judge stated in court document. He further warned that failure to comply by March 13, 2025, could result in the case being tossed.

The lawsuit stems from long-standing legal disputes between T.I., his wife Tiny Harris, and Peterson, who has previously accused the couple of wrongdoing. In January 2021, Peterson posted on Instagram about an alleged assault on her by T.I. during which she claims he held a gun to her head and said, “B####, I’ll kill you.” Peterson has not formally responded to the claims in court, as she has not been officially served.

T.I.’s attorney Andrew Brettler criticized Peterson for avoiding the legal process, arguing that she was fully aware of the hearing but deliberately refused to accept service. He urged the judge to dismiss the case entirely, accusing her of wasting time and resources while publicly claiming she wants her day in court.

“We’re here on a contempt because plaintiff has not taken this case seriously for the last three years,” Brettler said according to Rolling Stone. “She’s refusing to accept service or participate in the case herself. Her lawyers want out, and she’s posting on social media how she needs to go to trial in June. It’s outrageous. They’re not taking their own case seriously. We ask for a dismissal with prejudice. And if they ever decide to get their act together, they can refile.”

If T.I. does not submit proof of service, an answer from Peterson, or an application for entry of default by the deadline, the judge is expected to dismiss the case for lack of prosecution.

BREAKING: Diddy Hit With Another Indictment As RICO Case Gets More Complex

Diddy is facing serious new charges Thursday (March 6) as federal prosecutors in Manhattan expanded their racketeering case against the Hip-Hop mogul – again.

In addition to being accused of threatening witnesses, drug dealing, kidnapping people at gunpoint and extortion, he faces new allegations of forced labor, as detailed in a superseding indictment filed on March 6, 2025.

While no new criminal charges have been introduced, the indictment paints a disturbing picture of Diddy’s alleged methods to maintain control over his victims.

Diddy and his employees are accused of bribery and retaliating against people who witnessed the crimes the Bad Boy founder was committing, in addition to helping cover up his crimes by concealing payments to prostitutes by using proxies and cash payments.

According to the latest indictment, Diddy coerced employees into grueling work schedules, leveraging threats of physical, financial, psychological, and reputational harm to ensure compliance.

One particularly harrowing account describes an unnamed employee who was allegedly forced into sexual acts under these oppressive conditions. ​

Combs, 55, has consistently denied all allegations.

His attorney, Marc Agnifilo, reiterated this stance, stating, “Mr. Combs has said it before and will say it again: he vehemently denies the accusations made by federal prosecutors. He looks forward to his day in court when it will become clear that he has never forced anyone to engage in sexual acts against their will.” ​

The legal troubles for Combs have been mounting over the past year.

In September 2024, he was arrested on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering, stemming from allegations that he exploited his vast business empire to abuse and control women for his sexual gratification.

The indictment suggests that these activities spanned from 2004 to 2024, involving elaborate events known as “Freak Offs,” where women were allegedly coerced into participating in drug-fueled sexual encounters, sometimes recorded without their consent. ​

Further compounding his legal woes, a previous indictment in January 2025 expanded the timeline of his alleged misconduct and introduced two additional anonymous victims.

One particularly chilling allegation from this indictment claims that Combs once dangled a victim over an apartment balcony, exemplifying the extreme measures he purportedly employed to instill fear and maintain dominance. ​

Diddy remains incarcerated at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, with his trial slated to commence on May 5, 2025.

Lin-Manuel Miranda Disses Trump & Pulls “Hamilton” Controversial Kennedy Center Takeover

Lin-Manuel Miranda axed the anticipated Kennedy Center run of his smash-hit musical Hamilton after Donald Trump secured control of the famed Washington D.C. performing arts venue.

Just weeks ago, the Kennedy Center was buzzing with excitement and anticipation, ready to welcome the Broadway phenomenon Hamilton for an extended engagement slated from March 3 to April 26, 2026.

The historic venue is mired in controversy and cancellations after former President Donald Trump assumed the role of chairman and swiftly removed several board members previously appointed by President Joe Biden.

The center’s longtime president, Deborah F. Rutter, was among the recent dismissals. Lin-Manuel Miranda, the iconic genius behind Hamilton, announced he would no longer stage his blockbuster show at the center as long as Trump presides over its operations.

In a candid interview with The New York Times, Miranda minced no words in explaining his decision.

“This latest action by Trump means it’s not the Kennedy Center as we knew it. The Kennedy Center was not created in this spirit, and we’re not going to be a part of it while it is the Trump Kennedy Center. We’re just not going to be part of it,” Miranda told the publication.

Jeffrey Seller, the show’s lead producer, echoed Miranda’s frustration, calling out the Kennedy Center for becoming overly politicized under Trump’s leadership.

“It became untenable for us to participate in an organization that had become so deeply politicized,” Seller said. “The Kennedy Center is for all of us, and it pains me deeply that they took it over and changed that. They said it’s not for all of us. It’s just for Donald Trump and his crowd. So we made a decision we can’t do it.”

The Hamilton team is already exploring alternative venues in the Washington metro area to ensure local theatergoers still have a chance to experience the celebrated musical.

Lin-Manuel Miranda and Seller confirmed that the show’s national tour remains on track through 2026 despite the upheaval at the Kennedy Center.

The abrupt departure of Hamilton is the latest in a growing string of high-profile exits at the Kennedy Center since Trump’s controversial takeover.

Actress Issa Rae recently canceled her scheduled appearance at the facility, citing Trump’s new role.

Additionally, acclaimed TV creator Shonda Rhimes stepped down from her position as the center’s board treasurer, signaling clear dissatisfaction with the institution’s new direction.

Diddy Has Been “Kind” To Inmates According To Incarcerated FTX Founder Sam Bankman-Fried

Sam Bankman-Fried, the disgraced founder of the cryptocurrency exchange FTX that cost investors billions, has commented about his experience being in the same prison as Sean “Diddy” Combs.

In an interview with Tucker Carlson, the incarcerated crypto bro spoke about his time in prison, revealing that he shares a facility with Hip-Hop mogul Diddy, who’s currently being held on federal sex trafficking and racketeering charges at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center. Bankman-Fried shared insights into the environment behind bars and his interactions with the embattled music executive when asked directly if he was in the same unit.

“He is, he is,” Bankman-Fried said. “Um, and I, it’s, I don’t know, you know, he’s been kind.”

Bankman-Fried elaborated that while their interactions have been limited, Diddy has shown kindness to others in the unit as well when Carlson pressed him on Combs’ demeanor.

“Obviously I’ve only seen one, one piece of him, which is, you know, Diddy in prison,” he said. “And, you know, he’s been kind to people in the unit. He’s been kind to me.”

Bankman-Fried went on to describe the prison atmosphere as a mix of high-profile inmates and former gang members.

“It’s a weird environment, you know, it’s sort of a combination of a few other high profile cases and a lot of, you know, ex-gangsters or sort of, you know, alleged ex-gangsters,” he said.

Despite their unique circumstances, Bankman-Fried acknowledged the harsh reality of their confinement.

“It’s also, it’s a position no one wants to be in, you know, obviously he doesn’t, I don’t,” he said. “As you said, it’s kind of a soul crushing place.”

The discussion shifted to how fellow inmates perceive them as two of the most well-known figures in the prison system.

“Of course some of them are, I think like, ‘Wow, this is sort of a big opportunity,’ like, you know, to meet people they wouldn’t otherwise get to meet, which is, it shocked me the first time I heard that,” he admitted. “It makes sense from their perspective, but like, boy, it’s not how I think about prison.”

Bankman-Fried also shared an unexpected revelation about his fellow inmates, who he described as ex-robbers who don’t speak english.

“They’re good at chess,” he said. “That’s one thing I learned, like, you know, former armed robbers who don’t speak English and, you know, probably didn’t graduate middle school, a surprising number of them are fairly good at chess. I lose games to them all the time. I was not expecting that.”

Bankman-Fried, once one of the most influential figures in the cryptocurrency world, was convicted on multiple charges of fraud and conspiracy related to the collapse of FTX. Prosecutors argued that he orchestrated a multibillion-dollar scheme to defraud investors and misappropriate customer funds. He was found guilty on all counts and sentenced to 25 years in federal prison, marking a dramatic fall from grace for the former billionaire.
