Southside says that he and City Girls rapper Yung Miami are able to healthily co-parent because they do not get intimate with one another. The producer explained during an interview with The Bootleg Kev Podcast that the relationship has to be “business only.”

“I’m proud of them like crazy,” he remarked when asked about the success of the City Girls.

“The key to a cordial co-parenting relationship is just no sex,” he explained. “Cannot have sex with your baby mommas. You can’t have– I got a girlfriend too, so you can’t have sex with your baby mommas with a girlfriend.”

“Very cordial and friendly,” he added.

Southside and Miami share a two-year-old daughter named Summer. The former couple broke up back in 2020 after dating for two years.

It isn’t only Yung Miami who Southside has to worry about either. He explained that he has children with four separate women in total.

“One of them I really don’t know and the other three, I love them,” Southside said.

Despite praising the importance of cordiality and friendliness, Southside recently caught heat from a woman named Ashley, with whom he also shares a child. The woman claimed back in 2021 that he wasn’t taking care of his financial responsibilities and launched a GoFundMe requesting help.

In addition to helping raise several children, Southside has kept busy with his music career, having recently collaborated with Future and Travis Scott for the track, “Hold That Heat.”

Zion Williamson is an extremely talented player, when healthy. Unfortunately, his health has been a struggle for much of his time with the New Orleans Pelicans. The star can never seem to get things in order, and this past season, he did not play a single game. This made things a lot tougher for the Pelicans, especially since they had to go through the playoffs without him.

Regardless, Zion is set to receive as a massive contract extension that could be worth up to $200 million. Despite missing about half of his games throughout his career, the Pelicans are ready to give Zion this contract, and it has certainly gotten the attention of folks like Charles Barkley.

While appearing on the Dan Patrick Show, Barkley had some hilarious comments about Zion and his conditioning. As you can see below, Barkley said “If they were getting ready to give me $200 million, I would be the skinniest power forward in the history of civilization.”

Obviously, Zion has been rumored to be over 300 pounds, which is definitely not conducive to his goals as an NBA superstar. Hopefully, however, he is able to get all of that under control before next season.

We’re only a few weeks away from The Game’s next studio album, Drillmatic. Though the rapper previously hinted that Born 2 Rap would be his final album, he has been putting in some serious work with Hit-Boy, who serves as the executive producer on the forthcoming project.

The Game has slowly rolled out more information on the project but he’s yet to offer any insight into the features or the tracklist. On Tuesday night, the rapper took to Instagram where he shared some throwback photos of himself and his son from The Documentary era. The last slide on the post reveals that the project would include 30 songs in total across two sides, Mind and Heart.

Following the release of Kendrick Lamar’s Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers, The Game gave flowers to all of the MCs who’ve dropped this year but asserted that his next project would be his strongest effort to date.

“I know my album gone be the best album of 2022 cause the energy feels like I just signed my deal. You’ve never heard me rap like this, I promise you,” he wrote. “When it drops, I promise you that if you put your ear to it you will then understand why I’m the best rapper alive. My controversy has always stepped on my greatness, but that’s all about to change. This album has a strong hold on being the best album of my career.”

The Game’s Drillmatic — Mind Vs. Heart is due out on June 17th.  

The city of Baltimore will pay $300,000 to resolve a lawsuit from rapper Young Moose, who claims that former detective, Daniel Hersl, planted drugs on him. Hersl is played by Josh Charles in David Simon’s new series for HBO, We Own This City.

The rapper filed his lawsuit against the city and its police department in March 2021. He accuses officers of applying for warrants based on false allegations and planting crack cocaine on him while searching him in 2012. The charges were later dismissed in 2020 when the city reviewed hundreds of cases conducted by the now-infamous Gun Trace Task Force.

Young Moose claims that the eight years of freedom lost because of the incident prevented him from advancing his music career.

“In order to resolve this case, avoiding the expense, time, and uncertainties of further protracted litigation and the potential for an excess judgment, BPD and the city agreed to offer plaintiff a settlement payment of $300,000.00,” the Board of Estimates agenda said according to Fox Baltimore.

They added: “As with the prior GTTF settlements, we believe this settlement is in the best interest of both the city and the plaintiff who may have been harmed by the misconduct of former GTTF members.”

HBO’s We Own This City follows the rise and fall of the aforementioned Gun Trace Task Force. In addition to Josh Charles, the show stars Jon Bernthal, Wunmi Mosaku, Jamie Hector, and more. George Pelecanos serves as an executive producer, alongside David Simon.

It’s been four long years since Rae Sremmurd released their last studio album, SR3MM. The triple-disc effort included solo outings from both Swae Lee and Slim Jxmmi, as well as a group project. The two have remained lowkey since then while simultaneously teasing the release of a new album.

The two appear to be revving up for a summer release. Swae Lee and Slim Jxmmi teased the release of their fourth studio album together. Jxmmi shared a photo of a pinata shaped like a number 4 on fire, writing, “44444.” A similar photo was shared by Mike Will Made-It who confirmed that SremmLife 4 was coming soon.

On Twitter, both Jxmmi and Swae Lee teased the release even further. “Bout to get a dose of this Sremmy,” Swae wrote. Jxmmi added, “Time for that 4 foe four for phor.”

Rae Sremmurd has been teasing Sremm Life 4 since 2020. However, the extended break between projects has prompted commentary that the brotherly duo lost their momentum. In April, Jxmmi responded to the critics who claimed that they fell off before hinting that a new album from Rae Sremmurd was dropping this year.

“For those saying i ‘Fell off’ i beg to differ. Im healthy, happy, i got beautiful kids, a nice new condo overlooking the ocean, and a beautiful catalogue,” he wrote in his tweet. “Sremm 4 Loading stay tuned!”
