Cardi B & Offset Steal The Show At Balenciaga’s Paris Fashion Week Runway

If we were to crown a queen of this year’s Paris Fashion Week, it would undoubtedly be Cardi B. The 28-year-old gave birth to her second child weeks ago, but that’s not holding her back from conquering France with her unbelievable looks.

Last week, the “Bodak Yellow” rapper wore a tweed jacket complete with gold nipple patches that certainly got the internet talking, and on Saturday, she attended the Balenciaga show in another eye-catching ensemble.

Cardi’s outfit consisted of a tabloid trench coat, made up of several colourful magazine covers. She accessorized with a large black hat, black gloves, boots, and some sparkly silver earrings.

Offset opted for a classic black look, wearing a baggy hoodie, an oversized leather jacket, a flannel, some simple pants, and a black shoe to top it all off. The couple’s outfits complimented one another perfectly, with Cardi’s coat standing out in stark comparison to her man’s jacket.

The mother of two isn’t the only celebrity that’s been in cahoots with Balenciaga as of late; the brand also teamed up with The Simpsons to create a special episode where the residents of Springfield head to Paris to walk the runway.

The clip also included cameos from Justin Bieber (who had a campaign with them earlier this year), Kim Kardashian, and Kanye West, who have both been frequently spotted wearing their designs.

Cardi has been flexing her Paris Fashion Week experience all over social media, and just yesterday she revealed that her new friend, DemDem, gifted her with a beautiful Birkin bag and a floral arrangement.

Paris Bryant Continues His Winning Streak With New Track “Ballin”

Despite being extremely young compared to his contemporaries, Paris Bryant has been able to accomplish a lot in just a short amount of time. At 17 years old, the Brooklyn artist signed to Cinematic Music Group and since that time, he has released a few singles that have gotten the attention of hip-hop listeners. On Friday, he dropped off his latest song “Ballin,” and it is a song that celebrates his success thus far.

The track has an atmospheric instrumental that is in some ways cinematic. Throughout the song, Bryant explains how he’s ballin’ out in his new life and that he plans on building his wealth further while enjoying the fruits that come with such labor. He is extremely confident in the song as he switches up flows going from fast raps to some slowed-down sung choruses.

You can check out the new track, below.

Quotable Lyrics:

I got a
New fit
She callin
Set a pick
Like Ballin’
Imma ball
Like Harden
Imma still make money regardless

Tim Tebow Defends Urban Meyer After Abysmal 0-4 Start

Urban Meyer was brought in to save the Jacksonville Jaguars although so far, he has not been able to accomplish that. The Jaguars are still awful right now and after a 0-4 start, fans are starting to wonder if Meyer is cut out for the NFL. There have been reports that the team doesn’t really like him, and the drama is starting to mount especially with the vast expectations.

Tim Tebow knows Meyer first hand and he even got to work with his former Gators coach while trying out for the Jags in the offseason. During an episode of First Take, Tebow gave his take on the Meyer situation, noting that we shouldn’t count out the head coach so soon. Of course, Tebow seems to be a bit biased here, but alas, you have to admire the defense.

“He has a crazy determination. So while it might be hard, I think he’s going to be really determined. I think he expected to win all of those games. I think he expected [the Jaguars] to be 3-1 or 4-0,” Tebow said. “He is taking that hard. But I also think that this dude is super resolute and super determined. I think he’ll continue to tweak and mold and change and get new guys in there and adapt and do whatever it takes because he’s so determined. I don’t think he’d quit without finding a way to turn the tide a little bit.”

It’s a bad time to be Meyer as just last night, he got caught in 4K dancing with a younger woman while his wife tried to tweet through it. At this point, Meyer isn’t garnering any favors, and his time in Jacksonville could very well come to an abrupt end if things don’t get better soon.

Let us know what you think of Meyer’s coaching, in the comments below.

Kimye, Justin Bieber & More Attend Balenciaga Fashion Show On “The Simpsons”

Paris Fashion Week is in full swing, which means that many of the biggest socialites and celebrities are currently overseas, attending shows, networking, and shopping for fresh new designer outfits. 

In the age of the pandemic, several brands have begun taking creative and unique approaches to how they present their clothes, and Balenciaga is no exception. This season, they teamed up with The Simpsons to create a brief but hilarious episode that takes the residents of Springfield to the runways of Paris.

The video sees Homer surprising Marge with a green Balenciaga dress for her birthday, only for her to have to return it when the couple comes to terms with the hefty price tag. The crew at the fashion house takes pity on the Simpsons and their “depressing” town, and invites them all to come walk in their show.

Besides their usual cast, The Simpsons also animated stars like Justin Bieber, Anna Wintour, Kim Kardashian, and Kanye West into the clip, showing them all sitting front row at the big event.

Bieber had his own Balenciaga campaign earlier this year, and Kimye have frequently been seen wearing the label, most recently at Ye’s DONDA streaming eventat the Met Gala, and for a dinner date with friends at Nobu in Malibu.

TMZ reports that the West’s didn’t attend the episode’s premiere in Paris, although Kim posted a screenshot to her story with the caption, “@balenciaga show was lit.”

Tua Tagovailoa’s Projected Return To The Field Revealed

Tua Tagovailoa has been given the keys to the Miami Dolphins franchise and fans are excited to see where he goes. After a solid showing in his rookie season, there was hope that Tua could develop in his second season and turn the Dolphins into a playoff team. Unfortunately, in Week 2, Tua went down with a rib injury that threatened his availability throughout the season. Eventually, he was diagnosed with fractured ribs and he has been out of the lineup ever since.

Jacoby Brissett has been the starter over the past two weeks, and while he hasn’t been able to win games, there is still hope that the Dolphins can turn it around. Luckily, there is some good news regarding Tua on the horizon.

It remains to be seen if Tua’s ribs will heal in time for this timeline to play out, but for now, Dolphins fans have a reason to be optimistic.

Shad Delivers His Latest Project “Tao”

It’s been over a year since Shad indicated that a new album was on the way. The host of Netflix’s Hip-Hop Evolution has maintained a presence in Canada’s rap scene with his appearance on TOBI’s “24 (Remix)” which included a slew of Canada’s best rap talent.

This week, the rapper returned with his latest sixth studio album, TAO. Laced with 12 songs in total, and appearances from Skratch Bastid, Yung Tone, Mah Moud, and more. The rapper explained how this project was largely inspired by the intent to bring hope to people following the tumultuous year we’ve had.

“That’s what I feel like I can contribute as an artist,” Shad told Exclaim! “I like to make people think but also laugh. I like to provide a spark of some kind of joy.”

City Morgue Go Off On Aggressive New Guitar-Driven Track “WHAT’S MY NAME”

City Morgue members SosMula and ZillaKami have proven to have phenomenal chemistry over the years. The two have made a name for themselves thanks to aggressive flows and metal-inspired instrumentals that will certainly have you wanting to start a moshpit. Fans are always looking forward to new material, and on Friday, they gave their fans just that with a new song called “WHAT’S MY NAME.”

This effort carries forth the auditory aesthetics of their previous work as we are met with wailing metal guitars and some yelled flows that will immediately wake you up. Both artists play off each other well and the lyrics will have you shadow boxing in the living room. You can peep the new song, down below.

Quotable Lyrics:

I like rocket ships and long Glock clips (Okay)
Wish I was in space so I can’t deal with your shit (Okay)
“It’s not a clip, it is a magazine,” some n***a had said to me
Don’t care what you call it, all I know is that it makes you bleed (Okay)

Bryson Tiller Gives Update On New Music: “Get Ready For The Album(s)”

It’s now been one year since Bryson Tiller released the masterpiece that is A N N I V E R S A R Y. While some artists like to take their time and rest up between projects, the 28-year-old let his fans know via Instagram that’s he’s been hard at work on multiple albums, and that one of them “is 100% complete.”

“Years go by.. Thanks to all of you who have been supporting for so long,” the singer captioned his post yesterday.

“Celebrating the Anniversary with you guys last year really helped me fall back in love with making music…because to be honest, for a while there I really didn’t want to be bothered with anything music related. My grandmother’s passing took me by surprise and made me realize I really can’t be stagnant out here and that I MUST keep moving no matter WHAT.”

He then went on to share some very exciting news, telling his followers to “get ready for the album(s)” (one of which is finished) and promising that he’ll see us soon. 

According to OnSmash, Tiller is expected to release a new single before the year is up, and we’ll likely hear the project that he’s been wrapping up in 2022.

His 2020 release, A N N I V E R S A R Y only included two features – “Outta Time” with Drake, and “Still Yours” with Big Sean, which can be heard on the deluxe version. 

Who would you like to see Tiller collaborate with, or are you hoping for a featureless album from the Kentucky native?

BKTHERULA & Matt Ox Team Up For Off The Wall Banger “PLACEMENT”

BKTHERULA has quickly become a favorite of the underground thanks to some wild bangers that have shown off the full scope of her versatility. The artist is gearing up to release a new album called LOVE BLACK and to help promote it, she has dropped a brand new song with Matt Ox called “PLACEMENT.”

As you will quickly realize, this is an experimental song that sees both artists playing with their flows and vocal inflections. BKTHERULA offers up some hard lyrics over the skeletal production, all while Matt Ox puts a ton of high-pitched effects on his voice. It makes for a unique contrast that has both artists shining and doing the most.

If you are new to BKTHERULA, this song is proving to be a must-listen endeavor.

Quotable Lyrics:

Would it hard feel (Yeah)
I don’t talk ’cause that’s how I feel (Yeah)
Every time I’m sayin’ how I feel (Ha), huh (Huh)
I’m insane with a hard pill (Heart spill)

Lil Wayne & Rich The Kid Grab YG For “Buzzin'”

It’s been over two years since Lil Wayne shared his last studio album, Funeral. The rapper continued to deliver some excellent guest features since then with a few solo cuts sprinkled into the mix. His return to the fold came in the form of a collaborative album with Rich The Kid that came out of left-field for most. The 10-track project, Trust Fund Babies, finds the two artists bringing their eccentricity into the fold with little features attached to the tracklist.

YG serves as the only guest appearance on the project. The Compton rapper joins Weezy and Rich The Kid for the record, “Buzzin’.” Opening up with the iconic lighter flicker that used to indicate that Wayne was delivering a ht 16. Wayne kicks off the track before Rich The Kid holds down the second verse and YG, the third, over triumphant production.

Check the record out below. 

Quotable Lyrics
You like savin’ hoes, you a hoarder
We cross out the opps, we be crossin’ boarders
Su gang I be sendin’ orders
Su gang red rags on my daughter
