Kim Kardashian “Happy” To Close Kanye West Chapter: Report

As you surely know, Kim Kardashian filed for divorce from her husband of six-years, Kanye West. The power couple’s end could have been predicted from miles away, with gossip magazines writing about their perceived marital difficulties for years before the split was made official. While the couple always seemed to make their dynamic work, things finally got to be too much when Kanye ran for President, trashing his family and sharing their secrets during his rallies. His campaign was reportedly the “final straw” for Kim.

With each passing day, there is less hope that Kanye and Kim will eventually reconcile. According to a source at Entertainment Tonight, Kim is “concerned” about Kanye’s mental health during their divorce, but she’s “happy” to put this era behind her.

“The divorce has been difficult for [Kanye], but knowing that he has access to his little ones and has split custody is making the transition easier,” said a source via the entertainment news site. “Kim and Kanye are in contact with regards to their kids. Kanye has hope that they will reconcile, but he is not expecting that in the immediate future.”

Kim is reportedly concerned about Kanye’s state of mind but she “has full faith that he will strive to do his best to be the father and person he once was.” The source also explained that their older kids are aware of what’s happening and they understand. “The kids are doing great and the older ones have had time to process and understand the situation,” added the source. “Kim and the rest of her family have done an excellent job at coaching the kids through this.”

Despite this being a heartbreaking moment for Kanye and Kim, Kim is said to be absolutely “relieved” after filing for divorce. “She is happy to see that chapter close,” said the anonymous informant. “She knows that it is what is healthiest for her and her family and she is ready to put this hardship behind her both publicly and personally. Kim has had her moments of feeling overwhelmed as a mom, of course, but the fact that her family has been so unified and supported her through this difficult time has made things so much easier for her to process.”

Hopefully, they can both heal from this traumatic breakup. We’ll keep you posted with any additional details on their ongoing divorce.

BRS Kash, DDG, And Toosii React To Adina Howard’s ‘Freak Like Me’ Video

This week on React Like You Know, we’re switching things up. We’ve touched on all the party classics like Lil Kim’s “Crush On You,” Busta Rhymes’ “Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Could See,” Trick Daddy and Trina’s “Nann,” and Mark Morrison’s “Return Of The Mack,” but this week, we’re slowing things down and pulling out a body-rolling R&B classic.

Mid-’90s staple singer Adina Howard — who is finally releasing her shelved 1997 album Welcome To Fantasy Island to streaming this week — debuted in 1995 with “Freak Like Me,” well before some members of our panel were even born.

So, it’s a blast to watch BRS Kash, DaniLeigh, DDG, and Toosii’s minds get blown by the laid-back G-funk stylings of the singer’s sexy debut single, which sounds little like the trap-heavy production of today. Wait for the moment BRS Kash finally realizes what the song is; he lights up like a Christmas tree. Meanwhile, Bobby Sessions makes this astute observation: “If your mom her hair like this, you was for sure getting your ass whipped.” Almighty Suspect also mishears a lyric, leading to one of the best facial reactions we’ve seen.

Watch the latest episode of React Like You Know above.

Reggae Legend Bunny Wailer Passes Away At 73

It is with heavy hearts that we are reporting the passing of reggae icon Bunny Wailer. The founding member of the original Wailers trio with Bob Marley and Peter Tosh, passed away at 73 in Jamaica on Tuesday (March 2). As reported by his manager Maxine Stowe, the reggae music giant passed away at the Medical Associates Hospital in Kingston, Jamaica. 

At this time, no cause of death for Wailer has been given. It has been reported that he has been in and out of the hospital since suffering a second stroke last year. 

Born in Jamaica, Wailer–born Neville Livingston before adopting his famous stage name, became friends with Bob Marley at a young age. The two, along with Peter Tosh, would later go on to form the legendary reggae group The Wailers. While Tosh and Marley served as the primary singers and songwriters of the crew, Bunny was recognized for his melodic harmonies on their tracks. This year marked the 40th anniversary of Bob Marley’s passing, while Peter Tosh was murdered in a home invasion in Kingston back in 1987.

In 1965, the crew released their debut record The Wailing Wailers, before going on hiatus and linking up again in the 70s. Around that time, he began penning and recording his own material, including one of his most famous tracks “Dreamland.”

The group achieved international fame in 1973 with the release of Catch a Fire, which later pushed the group to disband in 1974. Bunny went on to win a Grammy for Best Reggae Album in 1991 for Time Will Tell: A Tribute to Bob Marley, earning two more after that as well. 

Our prayers go out to his family, and may he Rest in Power.

Casanova Wants To Know What Others Would Do In His Shoes

Just before the holidays, the FBI issued a warrant for Casanova’s arrest in connection to guns and racketeering charges. The rapper’s accused of being an active member of the Untouchable Gorilla Stone Nation. Authorities claimed that he was “trafficking cocaine and marijuana.” He’s maintained his innocence throughout this entire ordeal but still, he was denied bond.

His team has been communicating messages on his behalf as he remains behind bars. The rapper’s shared a few thoughts for his fans, especially when it comes to staying down and loyalty. This week, the rapper took to Twitter where he, once again, maintained his innocence but he had a message for his fans: What would you do in his shoes?

“I always told myself l was never going back to jail…since I’m innocent l turned myself in what would u have done if u was in my shoes???…Comment below,” he tweeted. Some people suggested that they would’ve done the race like Tay-K while others went on to either question how he managed to get his hands on a phone or accuse him of snitching, though there’s no substance either of these allegations.

“You’re a street dude asking the opinion of internet weirdos that never jaywalked across a street. Go with your heart and mind. Stay blessed you will get through this,” one fan wrote before more fans offered positive messages and encouragement for Cas during this time. Peep some of the responses below. 

Nia Riley Says Soulja Boy Kicked Her Stomach While She Was Pregnant

Soulja Boy is in the news today because of his Twitter beef with WWE star Randy Orton, but he’s also mentioned in headlines for something much more serious. Nia Riley, the rapper’s longtime girlfriend, has said that her miscarriage was caused by Soulja Boy after he kicked her in the stomach while she was pregnant.

In a new preview clip of Nia Riley’s upcoming interview with blogger Tasha K, the Love & Hip Hop star confirms that her rapper boyfriend caused her miscarriage by physically attacking her.

“We had an incident when I was pregnant. I feel like we always did,” said Riley in the video. “He absolutely knew I was pregnant,” she continues after the interviewer brings up her miscarriage. “I was, like, fifteen weeks. I don’t think I had even told anybody else that I was pregnant. Truthfully, in my mind, I didn’t know what to do or what I wanted to do.”

Nia says that she suffered the miscarriage on the same night that Soulja Boy kicked her.

The full episode is set to air on Tuesday night, where Nia Riley will surely offer more details as to what happened, as well as more about her relationship with Soulja. If you’re familiar with Tasha K, you know she asks the tough questions.

Watch the preview clip above. What do you think about Nia’s allegations?

Royce Da 5’9″ & Joe Budden Reunite In The Studio

There’s no telling if and when Joe Budden will ever turn his back on retirement and follow the siren song of the rap game. Perhaps the oddsmakers can paint a more detailed picture. In any case, that hasn’t stopped fans of Jumpoff Joey from holding out hope, especially as he continues to tease an eventual return to the booth. Perhaps that time is coming sooner than later, as the media mogul recently took a trek down to Detroit to catch up with his former groupmate Royce Da 5’9.

Royce took to Instagram to share a picture of his reunion with Budden, which took place at his own Heaven Studios. Though the nature of the meeting wasn’t shared, Royce did tease that “This gon cost you extra,” perhaps alluding to the recent partnership Joe Budden struck with Patreon. In that case, expect the pair to be engaging in a conversation at the very least, a prospect that should prove exciting given their shared history as collaborators.

Aside from sharing a common appreciation for spitting bars, both Royce and Joe are particularly passionate about the topic of mental health. It wouldn’t be surprising to see the pair discuss their own experiences with battling mental health struggles, should their conversation ultimately lead them down that road. Of course, it’s entirely possible that Budden is merely swinging by Detroit to catch up with an old friend, though between the picture and Royce’s caption, it does feel like something bigger is afoot.

Check out the picture below, and should you be interested in more from Royce, remember that he’ll be performing in the I Play Forever Live eConcert on March 11th, an event held in partnership with Monster Energy and Yoop. Tickets for that are available for purchase here.
