Post Malone & Doja Cat Team Up For “A Happier Song” In “I Like You”
Post Malone hadn’t released a new album in three years, although last night, he changed that streak has he came through with the 14-track album Twelve Carat Toothache. With this new project, it is clear that Post Malone is going full pop star, and no song shows that to be true more than “I Like You (A Happier Song)” featuring Doja Cat.
There are a ton of ballads on this album, however, “I Like You” takes a much different approach as Posty can be heard singing about a girl that seems to catch his eye. Everything is very upbeat and when Doja comes in, she goes with her sensual r&b voice as opposed to rapping. These two blend perfectly on the track together, and there is no doubt that this song has smash hit potential.
Let us know what you think of the song, in the comments section down below.
Quotable Lyrics:
Oh, girl, I know you only like it fancy (Fancy)
So, I pull up in that Maybach Candy
Yeah, your boyfriend’ll never understand me (Understand)
‘Cause I’m ’bout to pull his girl like a hammy, hammy (Wow)
Dave Chappelle’s Attacker Looking For Plea Deal
Fans were shocked when Dave Chappelle was tackled by an audience member towards the end of his set at the Hollywood Bowl. Following the attack, the man responsible, Isaiah Lee, was beat up by multiple people backstage before being restrained and put into an ambulance.
Following the attack, Los Angeles County District Attorney, George Gascon, announced that the city would not press felony charges against Lee, instead, they would be charging him with four misdemeanor counts, including misdemeanor battery, misdemeanor possession of a deadly weapon with intent to assault, and two violations for jumping on stage and attacking Chappelle.
Now, it seems as if Lee is changing his mind and instead of taking a plea deal instead of heading to trial. Lee appeared in front of a judge on Thursday, June 2, and agreed to a two-month delay in the probable case hearing for an attempted murder case that he was charged with after stabbing his roommate during an altercation at a transitional housing facility in December.
Lee’s attorney had requested a delay in the Chappelle case so that she could “see if there’s a disposition in the felony matter which would potentially resolve (this case) as well.” His attorney, Chelsea Padilla was then asked if a claim of mental incompetency would be used and she replied “not at this time.”
Chappelle’s lawyer declined to comment on the plea offer. Following the attack, Chappelle had urged George Gascon to reconsider the misdemeanor charges and file felony charges against Lee. “Mr. Chappelle wants this case charged as a felony,” Gabriel Colwell, a partner at Squire Patton Boggs, said. “Entertainers in Los Angeles need to know that the justice system will protect them on stage.”

Joe Budden Criticizes NYC Strip Clubs, Waka Flocka Responds
If you listen to the Joe Budden Podcast, you would know that Joe Budden frequents a few strip clubs in New York City and has been vocal about the lack of diversity and blatant colorism at NYC strip clubs. Budden took to Instagram on Thursday morning to issue a warning to NYC strip clubs.
“NY strip clubs, not only are you not hiring Black women, but you’re purposely hiring the SAME exact girl..” Budden said. “Your promoter having a type is gonna lose yall money this Summer.. this is disgusting (not the girls, the optics)” he added.
Many on social media came out in support of Budden’s remarks, noting the lack of diversity in NYC strip clubs. Others, however, made fun of Joe Budden, more so because he was taking a stand for inclusion in the strip clubs.
However, there were some people who didn’t support Budden. DJ Akademiks reposted Budden’s message on IG and Waka Flocka commented under, calling Budden a “soft ass.”
“Man shit yo soft ass up,” Waka replied. Budden then replied to Waka, “@wakaflocka or what?”
It is unclear why Waka responded to Budden’s message that way. Maybe Waka is on the list of artists that Budden has beef with. Regardless, do you agree with Budden?

Prosecutors argued he is the head of Young Slime Life. Allegedly a street gang that has committed multiple murders, shootings and carjacking’s over the last decade.

Despite the strong plea from Thug’s defense, the judge sided with the state denying bond, while also citing a possible flight risk. Adding that Thugger would pose a risk of committing additional felonies, as the “top dog” if he were released.
Young Thug is being held at Cobb County. He faces charges of conspiracy to violate Georgia’s RICO Act and participation in a criminal street gang. His trial date set for January 9, 2023.
