Month: June 2021

The flavors of New York City will be brought to sunny Los Angeles, courtesy of the daughters of The Notorious B.I.G. and Jam Master Jay. Biggie’s daughter, T’yanna Wallace and Jam Master Jay’s Tyra Myricks daughter have teamed up to launch their own New York-style pizzeria in Los Angeles called Juicy Pizza. The new pizza joint will serve the classics like cheese and pepperoni. According to LA Eater, they will also be serving other spins of New York specialties like chopped cheese egg rolls, bacon, egg, and cheese, and jerk chicken.

The grand opening of Juicy Pizza is set for June 12th. Though it will be an exclusive event, there will be a giveaway for an invitation. The idea for the pizzeria came after Myricks realized there was “no good pizza in Los Angeles.”

“The more I thought about how to bring that New York theme to Los Angeles, I felt, who represents New York more than Biggie Smalls?” She told Business Insider. Myricks said she told Wallace about the idea. “She loved it,” Myricks added.

Myricks, who also works as the director of design, merchandising, and development for the OVO brand, also designed the merch for the restaurant which is available for purchase on their site.

What’s even better is that the pizza restaurant will also have an exclusive cannabis lounge. 

Hip Hop officially has a new couple and the reactions from fans have been…interesting. Days ago, Coi Leray and Pressa looked mighty cozy as they posed together on social media. Video clips of them dancing and hugged up together went viral, and soon, people were reacting to the pair going public. Leray’s star has been on the rise since she released her “No More Parties” hit, and Pressa has been poised as the new “it” rapper to hail from Toronto.

While the happy couple was thrilled to share their cute moments with the public, the internet responded by criticizing how Pressa looks.

The trolls came out in droves to talk about Coi’s new man and overwhelmingly, people remarked that he looked feminine. Many claimed they thought he was a lesbian or stud, but both rappers seem to brush the comments off. Leray eventually returned to Twitter to address the attention with one tweet that shut down jokesters.

“People saying pressa look like a girl till they see that Mf dick print,” Leray wrote. The reactions were swift and some people continued with negativity, but it’s obvious that Leray and Pressa are doing just fine. Check out her tweet, along with a few reactions, below.

We’ve received some major releases in the past few weeks already. J. Cole dropped The Off-Season, Lil Durk and Lil Baby finally released their collaborative album, and this Friday, both Migos and Polo G will be dropping. The months ahead will likely unveil even bigger projects from some of our favorite artists. One of them potentially being Tyler, The Creator.

Earlier today, fans discovered a new billboard popping up in Los Angeles with Columbia Records logo on it. The billboard reads, “Call Me If You Get Lost” with the phone number 1-855-444-8888 underneath. The phone number leads to an automated recording of what fans pointed out to be Tyler, The Creator, who recently celebrated the 10-year anniversary of Goblin, and his mom having a conversation. Well, mainly Tyler, The Creator’s mom detailing her love for her son over the Odd Future frontman’s production. 

“His daddy fine, I’m fine. What you thought?… Bitch, what you mean? He got his looks from me! You better tell this hoe. This my n***a, though. My ride or die. I’ll kill a mothafucka over this one right here, n***a. I’ll stand in front of a bullet, on God, over this one,” she’s heard saying in the clip. “I walked up on teachers, principals, mommas, kids, I don’t give a fuck. Am I lying?”

“You have no reason to,” Tyler responds. 

On top of the relatively obscure billboard, fans quickly pointed out that Tyler, The Creator’s averaged one album every two years. IGOR dropped in 2019 so it seems that a new album is on the way. Check out the snippet below.
