Azealia Banks is getting a lot of deserved praise right now. She has always been a champion for house music and her early work certainly fits within that genre. Some fans believe her contributions to house music are immense and that Beyoncé and Drake’s latest forays into house music can be attributed to Banks’ influence.
With that being said, it doesn’t seem like Banks is too fond of Beyoncé’s track “Break My Soul.” Just a couple of days ago, Banks took to Instagram where she urged fans to stop making mash-ups of her songs that also contain “Break My Soul.” She simply said “They are horrible” which is a pretty good indication that Beyoncé’s latest effort isn’t for her.
Now, Banks is going scorched earth on Beyoncé in a series of Instagram stories. Down below, you can see that Banks referenced a recent article in which it was revealed that Beyoncé was listening to Azealia while brainstorming for her latest track. Beyoncé also listed a plethora of influences such as David Asante, Mista Jam, and MNEK. Banks did not take too kindly to this as she feels like Beyoncé isn’t educated enough about the genre. A perfect example of this is how the “Break My Soul” singer didn’t even mention Donna Summer in her list of influences.
“Why feel the need, after 13 years of my career, say you’re ‘brainstorming’ with six people to my early records… which are miles beyond whatever flaccid and insincere attempt you just made to try for an attention grab during pride month?” Banks wrote. “When you don’t give a damn about the gays any other time of the year?”

Banks did not stop there as she unleashed a fury of voice memos on her Instagram story, in which she accused Beyoncé of trying to completely discredit her at every turn. “Beyoncé’s been trying to write me out of my own narrative for years,” Banks said. She went on to say “you’re a joke” to the Queen B, and “you’re trying to erase my contributions to house music, dance music…you’re a fucking creep and you watch everything I do.” She also brought up the fact that she wasn’t involved in the Little Mermaid film soundtrack, despite her clear affinity for mermaids.
Whether or not Beyoncé will reach out following this barrage, still remains to be seen.
Cardi B has always spoken out on political issues over the years. From taxes to healthcare to the recession, Cardi is one of the few rich people who tries to champion the middle class. She knows what it’s like living pay check to pay check, and as a result, she is always looking to advocate for better conditions for people.
Today, a massive political event went down as the abortion rights bill Roe V. Wade was overturned by the Supreme Court. As you can see down below, some people were waiting on Cardi to say something, and with people demanding she speak, she decided to hop on Twitter to tell people that no matter what she says, she gets criticism for it and that it makes it hard for her to want to share her opinions anymore. “Everytime I talk about political shit, y’all get me fucking dragged,” she said matter of factly.
Unfortunately, this devolved into a complete mess of a comments section, as one person got way out of pocket and claimed that Cardi’s 3-year-old daughter Kulture was autistic. That was enough for Cardi to speak out against the commenter, as she went scorched earth, saying “My daughter is not autistic…You can’t call her ugly so y’all have to diagnose her wit her wit something. Go play in traffic bitch.”
Cardi received plenty of support following this person’s remarks. As it stands, the tweet about Kulture has been deleted, however, that didn’t stop Cardi from defending her children while also making fun of those who think it’s cool to come after innocent kids.
If there is anything to come away with here, it’s that you don’t talk bad about Cardi’s kids on Twitter. They are her pride and joy, and she will come for you if you try her.
Summer Walker has been public about her co-parenting issues with London On Da Track since their 2021 breakup, including a full-on album inspired by the relationship. Most recently, Summer dubbed London “the worst baby daddy on the face of the planet.”
Now, in a digital cover with Essence, Summer once again shared her thoughts on her co-parenting situation with London.
“I wish that I paid more attention to the person I procreated with. It’s still like you never really know anybody. Even how long you can be with people, you just never really know.”
Although she might regret who she had her child with, Summer has been vocal about her love for motherhood and how much joy it brings her.
“It brings you the most joy in the world. At the same time, it’s really hard, it’s really stressful, and it’s really a lot of sacrifice. Sometimes, it’s like, is it worth it? Then they smile and make your day, and the answer is yes,” she told Essense.
Summer also teased the direction her music may be headed in. She revealed during the interview that her favorite type of music is Soul and she had high praises for the genre.
“I don’t know what kind of life I would live if I didn’t get to hear Soul music,” she said. “I just don’t get to do it as much because that’s not what you get paid for, you know?”
Her 2021 album, Still Over It moved 166k units in its first week and debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top 200.
We’ll have to stay tuned to see if Summer pursues Soul music more completely on her next project.

Amber Rose has always been a controversial figure in the hip-hop world. After dating the likes of Kanye West, 21 Savage, and Wiz Khalifa, there are people out there who believe she isn’t exactly someone to emulate. Rose has fully embraced who she is, and she has been a big advocate for women doing their own thing. A perfect example of this is her “Slut Walk” which was once attended by her former beau, 21 Savage.
Now, it appears as though Rose is trying to become a rapper. This week, she released a new song called “GYHO” which stands for “Get Your Hoe On.” The song is produced by Mannie Fresh, and with this context in mind, you probably know exactly where we are going with this. That’s right, the song is an interpolation of Big Tymers’ 2000 hit “Get Your Roll On.”
The song is filled with sexually explicit lyrics and overall, the song definitely fits within Rose’s brand. Having said that, the song is not resonating with listeners right now. In fact, Rose is currently being roasted on Twitter for the track, with most people questioning how in the world she was able to secure studio time?
“Who the fuck let amberrose bean head ass in the studio and remake Getcha Roll On?” one user wrote. This was followed up by another Twitter critic who said “Who da fuck let amberrose in a recording studio to make music and why? Cause they need to be eradicated along with this crusty ass song.”
Let us know what you think of Amber Rose’s debut track, in the comments section down below.
Legendary producer-rapper Juicy J has teamed up with fellow super-producer and artist Pi’erre Bourne on Space Age Pimpin. The album’s sole feature is Project Pat and it was exclusively produced by Juicy J. Space Age Pimpin delivers a combination of J’s high-energy southern grit and Pi’erre’s new-age melodic trap sound.
Juicy J has kept busy this year as he has been performing many sold-out shows alongside Three 6 Mafia, he released Stoner’s Night with Wiz Khalifa in February, and he was credited with the production of “Jimmy Cooks” off Drake’s latest album, Honestly, Nevermind.
Pi’erre is known for producing hits such as Playboi Carti’s “Magnolia,” Sli’merre with Young Nudy, and topping the charts with Lil Uzi Vert’s Eternal Atake. His accomplishments as a producer were quickly followed by his success as a rapper.
Earlier this month, J and Pierre started the rollout for the album with the release of the lead single “This Fronto.”

Since his rise to fame, Cochise’s sound has always been distinctive to him and he stays true to that while elevating with the release of TheInspection.

Today is a contentious day in the history of the Supreme Court of the United States. Many are extremely upset as earlier this morning, the court confirmed that Roe V. Wade would be overturned. Roe V. Wade was first recognized by the Supreme Court back in 1973 which made abortion a federal right. Due to today’s 6-3 decision, it will now be up to the states to decide whether or not they want to ban abortions.
As one can imagine, millions of Americans are upset with this decision as the bodily autonomy of women has been severely compromised. Following the decision, President Joe Biden addressed the nation, where he placed much of the blame for the ruling on Donald Trump, who is responsible for naming three of the judges who are presently on the court.
“Today, the Supreme Court of the United States expressly took away a Constitutional right from the American people, that it had already recognized. They didn’t limit it, they simply took it away. That’s never been done to a right so important to so many Americans,” Biden said. “It was three justices named by one president – Donald Trump – who were at the core of today’s decision to upend the scales of justice and eliminate a fundamental right for women in this country.”
Biden had, even more, to say on the matter on Twitter. Down below, you can see that Biden is quite upset over the ruling, although as many pointed out, Roe V. Wade is something he and Barack Obama could have codified into law back in 2009 when they both got elected.
Needless to say, Biden’s entire presidency is facing a ton of scrutiny and this could prove to be a massive blow to moderate Democrats who are about to begin campaigning for the mid-term elections.
Just last week, sports talk television fans were in shambles as it appeared as though Stephen A. Smith and Skip Bayless were fighting. It all started when Stephen A. went on JJ Redick’s podcast and claimed that Skip was struggling at ESPN before he showed up and boosted the ratings.
Skip was completely flabbergasted by this retelling of events, and it led to a very heartfelt response on his show, where he seemed deeply betrayed by what Smith had said.
“I thought, ‘how could my brother Stephen A. turn on me like that?’ On me? Seriously?” Bayless said. “Stephen A. was suggesting that he saved and then made First Take. How can you save and make a show that was already as big a billion-to-one success story as ESPN had ever seen? The ratings and the revenues were impossibly great when Stephen A. joined me in 2012. With Stephen A. as my partner, First Take would never touch the NFL Monday ratings that it hit in 2011 pre-Stephen A. And I had taken First Take as far as I could? Seriously? I was just getting started. The rocket had just launched the year before in 2011. Stephen A., how dare you.”
Eventually, Smith issued a statement on Twitter where he basically said that not once did he ever lie about Bayless or the state of affairs. Smith claims he was simply relaying facts that had been told to him by higher-ups at the network.
“Skip Bayless is my brother,” Stephen A. said. “I will always love this man and I will always be grateful. No matter how far I continue to climb, I have him to thank. My comments about the state of First Take at that time is what I was told. It certainly wasn’t meant to slight my brother.”
In the aftermath of all of this, the two decided to take it out, and now, all is well. On the latest episode of his show, Skip noted that he sat by his pool with Stephen A. over the weekend, and they were able to hash things out. This eventually led to one final exchange on Twitter where Stephen A. said “The love is always here, my brother. Always! We Are Good!”
These two are legends of the sports talk television world, and you never want to see them fight publically as they did last week. Hopefully, this latest reunion could lead to yet another show between the two, in the future.
