Ebhoni Continues To Bring Vibes With “Rotation”

If any artist is having a solid run in 2021 so far, it’s Ebhoni. The R&B singer has been dropping hits left and right this year with even more in the vault. With the drop of her latest joint, “Rotation,” Ebhoni proves that she’s only going up from here.

“Rotation” is a dazzling trap-infused banger from the R&B singer that explores her drive for getting to the bag by any means. “Don’t mean to do it crazy/ Best behave, I keep it on me/ Be catching flights, we catching flights now,” she sings. Her vocals glide effortlessly on the song and paired with the beat, she serves a feeling that’s perfect for the summer ahead. Altogether, it’s some heat with anthemic potential. 

Earlier this year, Ebhoni also released the tracks “Rep It,” “Weston & Leona,” “X-ting,” and “Hit This.” Her EP, titled X, dropped in February of this year.

Quotable Lyrics
He pressing me, he want me right now
Calling me, ringing me down
Just rock
I’m getting to this money right now
Hold on baby, baby pipe down

Master P Hires Roc Nation Agent; Taking NBA Coaching Gig Seriously

It looks like Master P is really serious about becoming a NBA coach. After reports surfaced this week that the former No-Limit boss wanted to become the head coach of the New Orlean Pelicans, it appears he’s already taking the appropriate actions to do so.

TMZ recently caught up with P in Beverly Hills and asked him to talk further about his NBA coaching aspirations, which he said he’s already hired a couple agents from Roc Nation. And not just any agents, the Raymond Brothers.

“Right now, I just hired a sports agent,” P says. “One of the best in the world, The Raymond Brothers. He’s the President of Basketball for Roc Nation.” “He’s a good friend of mine and he knows what he’s doing,” P added.

As for his knowledge of the game, P says he’s more than capable of a leadership role with the Pels. “I’m not an X and O coach, but I understand people management. We don’t need another X and O coach. (Stan) Van Gundy was an X and O coach, it didn’t work. Times have changed. I think I have the best people management skills than any NBA coach can have.”

Continuing on, Master P added that he’s already got support from former coach & player John Lucas, who would be his X and O guy. “I talked to John Lucas, he’s willing to support me and come with me on this journey. So, I will have John Lucas that knows the X’s and O’s on the staff with me to make this happen. So, I got all the pieces to the puzzle.”

In a viral clip that’s been circulating social media, Justin Bieber is seen arriving at his apartment building with his security team. Before entering, the fans outside of his building started clamoring for his attention in anticipation of a photo with Bieber.

“I hear you, I hear you, but this is my home. This is where I live, and I don’t appreciate you guys being here,” he told the group of supporters outside of his home. “You guys can be anywhere, but please just not my home. You know at the end of the night when you come home and you wanna relax? Like, this is my space.”

After the “Peaches” singer’s exchange with the fans, one daring individual out of the bunch still persisted in taking a selfie with him. Bieber swiftly shut down the request, replying, “No, not right now.” His security team then told everyone that they had to leave.

Justin Bieber has been increasingly vocal about his privacy. In an interview with GQ Magazine, as well as his documentary Seasons, Bieber stated that he was living a healthier life and learning how to maintain his privacy for the sake of his mental health. 

Check out the clip below. Did Bieber handle this situation properly? Let us know in the comments. 

Beanz & Benny The Butcher Are Securing Bags On “As Seen On TV”

Rhythm & Flow has already helped propel the career of a now Grammy-nominated artist but those that didn’t emerge victoriously are still keeping their hustle on. Beanz, specifically, was an underdog on the show that didn’t make it all the way until the finale. However, her latest string of releases has highlighted exactly what she was a fan favorite and the potential that she’s slowly coming into.

This week, Beanz barred up with Griselda’s Benny The Butcher for her latest release, “As Seen On TV.” Beanz puts a focal point on her lyricism on this but more importantly, she’s proving that she can craft a banger. Benny’s assistance on the track brings a much-needed dose of East Coast grittiness to the equation.

Check out the latest from Beanz below.

Quotable Lyrics
Dope money easy but rap cash broke the lever
They never made cocaine dealings sound so clever
Who put a quarter block on a plate then turnt it to cheddar
Guess I’m good at putting a rock in its place like a diamond setter

Drake Flames Justin LaBoy’s Iced-Out “Respectfully” Chain

Invoking Drake’s name in anything is bound to illicit a few reactions, even if it isn’t true. Last week, Justin Laboy, whose interview series Respectfully has produced a few viral moments so far, and it seems that his show on REVOLT keeps getting bigger and better. Unfortunately, he attempted to fool fans into thinking Drake would be appearing on his show. It didn’t take long for Drake to dispel the rumors, calling cap on LaBoy’s comments.

It seems like that particular incident may have rubbed Drake the wrong way, and he’s allowed the Petty King to flourish. Justin LaBoy was on the ‘Gram where he revealed his latest piece of jewelry — an iced-out Respectfully chain in pink. “My custom chain finally done!! I love how it came out. Thanks to my bro @cal_thejeweler the best BLACK JEWELER out there & @essexfinejewelry for making the creative process enjoyable and getting the chain & piece made within 5 days… #Respectfully,” he captioned the post.

Drake, who dons a few pieces of impressive jewelry himself, took a shot at LaBoy’s new chain with a reference to Young Money’s First Lady. “Oh you def a Barb sis,” Drake wrote along with a laughing emoji, a diamond emoji, and a nail polish emoji. “Shining tho,” he added.

Justin LaBoy swiftly responded to Drake, telling him to “GO TO HELL.”
