Month: June 2021

Unlike last year’s graduating class, 2021 students are gathering together for their big send-off. We were in the thick of quarantine last year when 2020 grads received their diplomas, and unfortunately for them, they weren’t able to party away their final days in style. However, with mandates lifted, 2021 students are linking up and a group of friends is now looking for financial help after causing major damage to an Airbnb.

“We threw the littest graduation party of 2021 at a AirBnB and the floor caved in,” a Twitter user wrote alongside a clip of the hair-raising moment. “We was listening to EA by Young Nudy and n*ggas got too lit. Now I have to pay for 15k in damages. Can y’all fwm ??”

The pleas didn’t stop there because soon, a man named Abraham Nelson popped up on GoFundMe attempting to come up with the cash through the platform. “Me and my bros threw a graduation party for the class of 2021. We threw the party at a AirBnB. We were listening to ‘EA’ By Young Nudy and 21 Savage and things got out of control.”

“The party got too lit and the floor caved in and people got hurt,” he continued. “We are now looking at $15,000 in damages Please donate if you can anything helps.” The group is far from their $15K goal, but there have been several people who have added a few dollars here and there to the tune of $424. If they’re lucky, they may even get a donation from 21 or Nudy. If they aren’t, they’ll have some serious legal issues with Airbnb.

Check out clips of the floor caving in below.

The man who was arrested for getting into a physical altercation with Jacquees and Dreezy has spoken out about the incident. We previously reported that the Hip Hop couple was vacationing in Mexico when they were reportedly involved in a fight. There were reports that the man was “body-slammed” by Jacquees after he hit Dreezy, but the man claims that what has been shared on the internet isn’t the truth.

“Fresh outta jail in Mexico for fighting that b*tch ass n*gga twice. Jacquees or whatever his name is,” said the man in a video. “Him and his b*tch, they lying on me.”

“His girl is lying because she wanted to buy two joints that I had and I didn’t wanna sell it to her. They was trying to buy coke from me, they was trying to buy weed from me, and that’s why we got into a fight. ‘Cause I didn’t want to sell them the two joints that I had.”

“They both coke heads. They both disrespectful,” he added. “And he thought he could talk to me any kinda way just ’cause he’s a celebrity and he got touched him. You know what I’m sayin’? I touched him and I touched ol’ girl. I don’t care what the internet is sayin’ about me. If y’all know me, y’all know how I am, hey, you know what? They got me out here lookin’ bad, but I’m still out here doin’ me and it is what it is.”

Check out his explanation below and swipe to hear Dreezy’s side of the story.

It’s unclear why Coi Leray and Nikita Dragun have linked up, but they’ve been stealing attention all day. The two stars appeared on each of their own social media pages sharing photos from a photo or video shoot where they sport matching barely-there outfits. Coi rocks a silver look while the beauty mogul dons the gold version, and the pair flooded their Instagram Stories with images and clips of them oozing sex appeal.

In several of the videos, the ladies strut their stuff and dance to City Girl’s latest single “Twerkulator,” and the look has caught JT’s attention. It also caused fans to speculate if this was all for the hit single’s music video.

The City Girls rapper reposted one of Coi and Nikita’s visuals along with a caption that reads, “Period! Hold that sh*t down [heart eyes emojis].” The club-ready track has earned City Girls an accolade as “Twerkulator” is their first solo debut on the Billboard charts. JT penned her excitement in a caption to an Instagram post just yesterday ( June 1).

“I’m so happy for us because we’re always counted out I heard ‘you missed it.’so many times when I got out!” said JT. “Honestly we just getting started! After prison, deaths, leaked albums I’m sooooo thankful!!!! even thou we gave jobs, P*ssy talk & fire ass remixes.” Check out Coi Leray and Nikita Dragun spicing things up below.

Amazon has announced their next long-awaited Amazon Prime Day, which will take place June 21st and 22nd. The day (or days) features the best prices ~ever available~ until the next big shopping day, that is, Black Friday. With no waiting in line or fighting involved to get these plentiful deals, Amazon Prime day is probably the best thing that’s ever happened to deal hunters and introverts worldwide.

In previous years, buyers have been able to snag deals on everyday household items such as blenders, vacuums, and kitchen appliances. Tech deals for speakers, laptops, tablets, and even Apple products are also standard practice for Prime Day. The only catch is that this event is only available to those who have an Amazon Prime subscription.

If you don’t want to subscribe to Prime, competing retailers such as Target, Best Buy, and Walmart are sure to have their own saving events to compete with the site.

The deals are coming, so it’s time to make sure your card is nearby. Stay tuned for more details on this momentous occasion as we usher in June.

Now that social distancing mandates are lifted and outside is just about fully opened back up across the United States, we’re seeing artists gleefully returning with concert dates. Tours are being announced and delayed shows have received new dates, and it looks as if Rick Ross will be hunkering down in Las Vegas. 

On Monday (June 1), Las Vegas news station KTNV reported that Rozay has inked the ultimate deal with Drai’s, one of the hottest nightclubs in Sin City.

According to the outlet, the award-winning hitmaker “will kick-off a new multi-year Drai’s LIVE residency.” This is slated as the first residency for the venue in 2021 and it will launch on June 26. The show itself will reportedly take place on the “rooftop of The Cromwell,” 11 stores high in the sky. These won’t be any club appearance-styled deliveries, either; Rick Ross will perform full-length concerts highlighting some of our favorite hits throughout his successful career in Hip Hop.

“We’re thrilled to welcome Rick Ross to the Drai’s LIVE family,” said Dustin Drai, the vice president of entertainment and marketing for Drai’s Beachclub Nightclub. “As one of the most influential artists and dynamic live performers of the 21st century, he continues Drai’s trajectory of delivering arena-level performers in an unparalleled nightlife atmosphere.”

All of the dates for Ross’s residency have yet to be announced, but it was shared that his second show will take place on August 14. It’s also unclear how long this residency will last. Check out an Instagram announcement from Drai’s below.

Before the world knew him as Flesh-n-Bone, he was just Stanley Howse from Ohio. The rapper rose to fame with iconic Hip Hop group Bone Thugs-n-Harmony and was riding the highs of success before he was hot with a 12-year prison sentence. The case involved Flesh reportedly aiming a rifle at a former friend and he was charged with assault with a deadly weapon and a probation violation. He pleaded guilty.

After being released in 2008, Flesh reunited with his clique and returned to the music scene, and now, he’s penning a memoir that details the highs and lows of his life.

In a recent interview with HipHopDX, Flesh stated that he’s “about halfway through the book” and shared a few insights into the topics he’d be covering. He mentioned Bone Thugs making the big move to California early on in their career and as they were making waves in the industry, people began coming around offering certain drugs that would allegedly help them with their creativity.

“I feel that a lot of folks kind of zero in on youngsters,” he told the outlet, specifically referencing drug use. “And a lot of youngsters that are out there in the industry, this is how they get caught up. They get these wannabe-ass n*ggas, these wannabe-ass superstars, you know what I’m saying? The people that’s around us always are these yes-men ass n-ggas that come around with these poisons.”

It’s a problem that many artists face. “You won’t find not one artist today that don’t get caught up, because he’s surrounded by all of these yes-men ass people that feed them this poison.” He also spoke on Bone Thugs’ legacy and how he’d like future fans to look upon the group.

“I would like to be remembered as such, one of the most influential Hip Hop artists that changed the nature and style of Hip Hop, and brought a fresh face, sound and look to Hip Hop, forever to come,” he added. “We was the guys that came in and brought that wild-style look, that wild edge. We was smoking weed and all of that stuff. Smoking weed was taboo. Wasn’t nobody doing it — well, besides maybe B-Real [laughs].”

We’ll keep you updated on the status of Flesh’s memoir. In the meantime, check out a classic from Bone Thugs-n-Harmony below.

The recent spat between Akbar V and Alexis Skyy has caused a few Philadelphia residents to troll the rapper. Akbar recently received quite a bit of backlash following her comments about Skyy’s special needs daughter. The ladies got into a verbal altercation that nearly escalated after Akbar attended Skyy and Lira Galore’s hosting gig at a nightclub in Philly. Later, both Skyy and Akbar traded words on separate Instagram Live sessions, where Akbar unleashed on the model.

“B*tch, you got a braindead baby,” she said about Skyy’s young daughter who was born with hydrocephalus. “Your baby ain’t got a brain. B*tch, you got a r*tarded child.” Later, a “Notice to Vacate” meme began circulating, telling the Love & Hip Hop star that she’s no longer welcomed in the City of Brotherly Love.

The “notice” listed reasons for Akbar to leave the city: “Arguing over food, pretending to be from here, mocking religion with prayer hands, fighting… horrible rapping and over staying welcome.”

However, Akbar has said she’s still in Philly and doesn’t plan on going anywhere. “Still in Philly, I ain’t got touched,” Akbar said on her Livestream. “I can’t get evicted, I paid my rent… I got a spot out here now. I’m focused on my music. I gotta shoot two videos and I gotta do—don’t ask me about none of that drama! It was a couple days ago. I don’t wanna hear that.”

Check out the “notice” and Akbar V’s response below.
