Jaidyn Alexis Indulges In Some Thirst Traps As Blueface & Chrisean Rock Drama Heats Up

by

While Blueface and Chrisean Rock continue to fuel marriage rumors and leave fans wondering as to their status, Jaidyn Alexis would much rather continue her lack of a bother. Moreover, she recently took to social media to post some new thirst traps, and we’re sure that Blue’s ex is very happy to stay mostly out of the loop on whatever’s happening with his saga. The couple continues to draw a lot of attention online, whether for their legal situations behind bars or for their ever-complicated and usually combative family dynamics. Alexis has mostly stayed on the sidelines as of late, so she might not be feeling as overwhelmed as usual with all the antics.

Of course, many of those are by design, but Jaidyn Alexis is always going to find the right time to fall back into things. For example, Blueface’s mother Karlissa Saffold recently chastised Chrisean Rock for seemingly shading Jaidyn on her birthday. As such, she didn’t really have to respond or address the situation further online, because when Saffold’s got your back, you can rest assured that she will leave no Internet stone unturned.

Jaidyn Alexis Dodges Blueface & Chrisean Rock Rumors With Thirst Trap

Apart from Jaidyn Alexis, though, Blueface and Chrisean Rock have many more questions to answer about more than just thirst traps. Karlissa Saffold hopes his face tattoos of Rock are just fake, and that they aren’t actually getting back together like they hinted. “Oh my god, I had the worst nightmare in the world,” Saffold remarked. “I had a dream last night that John tattooed Chrisean Rock’s name on his face. And then I had a dream that he covered it up, and it said ‘Christian.’ Hallelujah. He gonna get it together, Lord. Ain’t he?”

Meanwhile, Jaidyn Alexis will still check fans who claim that she’s happy for Blueface and Chrisean Rock’s troubles and struggles. “Sometimes y’all piss me off,” she retorted to a fan on Instagram Live. “‘How you so happy?’ B***h, I’m working. This is work. Talking about ‘I’m happy.’ You disgust me. Someone’s gotta do it… Sometimes I think y’all don’t realize that real life happens in real-time. And sometimes y’all dumb as f**k. No shade at all.”

Orlando Brown Shocks Fans By Claiming He Slept With His Parents

by

Orlando Brown often goes viral for all the wrong reasons, and his most recent antic might just take the cake. Moreover, the actor recently appeared on Deshae Frost’s livestream and made everyone that was with him uncomfortable by issuing out yet another ridiculously inappropriate claim. “‘We listen and we don’t judge,’” he read something on Frost’s screen. “I had sex with my mama and my daddy. ‘We listen and we don’t judge!’ I got a baby with my mama and my daddy. ‘We listen and we don’t judge!’ And I’m telling you the motherf***ing truth! […] Thank you for giving me some p***y. I love my mom for that, you know? She taught me how to f**k like a man. My own mother did.”

Of course, this is beyond bizarre, and it’s entirely likely that Orlando Brown is just trolling here and taking things about as far as he can push them. Whether or not that desensitizes the comments themselves or makes them any less creepy or uncomfortable is up to your own personal view. But it certainly lines up with all the other absurdities that he’s spouted over the years.

Orlando Brown’s Latest Ridiculous Statement

“This is another crucial example of when we allow our young artists to be prematurely exposed by this demonic business and left out to fend for themselves,” Nick Cannon responded to Orlando Brown’s wild claims about him. “We need better support systems for our youth and take care of our own. I watched various of this young brother’s videos and all I see is a cry out for help.” These continued antics are just adding fuel to that fire, although it’s hard to tell how much of it is by design. Either way, we’re sure more developments will be just as controversial in the future.

Meanwhile, some of Orlando Brown’s viral moments are not as shocking, inappropriate, or creepy, but rather just very animated. For example, Brown recently chimed into the Super Bowl halftime show controversy surrounding Lil Wayne and Kendrick Lamar, positing that Weezy would be a terrible pick. Hopefully he engages more with these hot takes and not ones involving incest…

DJ Akademiks Dodges Question About Whether He Bookmarked Drake’s NSFW Video

by

DJ Akademiks is going viral on social media for dodging a question about whether he bookmarked the leaked explicit video of Drake on his computer. Speaking with several other streamers, Akademiks changed the topic to the hate he gets on social media when confronted with the idea.

“I don’t care what nobody says, I’m a top-three most-hated person on Twitter,” Akademiks responded. “If you ever see my Twitter, I don’t see my mentions at all. There’s so much hate for me on Twitter, Twitter just shows a blank screen. I promise you. I could show you my Twitter right now. There’s no mentions. You know why? There’s mad hate that they just filter everything out so I literally see nothing. I have to literally click on other people’s sh*t to find anything on Twitter.” The group burst out into laughter as he refused to answer the question.

Akademiks has been a fierce defender of Drake throughout his viral feud with Kendrick Lamar. Even discussing the success of Lamar’s new album, GNX, he brought the topic back to how Drake has had more streams overall in 2024, despite not releasing a new project. GNX moved over 300,000 album equivalent units and debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart.

DJ Akademiks Ignores Drake Question

In other Drake news, the Toronto rapper is planning on dropping a collaborative album with PartyNextDoor at some point before the end of the year. That schedule may be affected by his recent lawsuit against Universal Music Group, however. He’s accusing the label of artificially boosting the success of Lamar’s “Not Like Us” as well as defamation. The company has denied the allegations. Check out Akademiks’ full response when asked about the leaked video of Drake below.

Earlier this week J. Cole, in partnership with Ibrahim Hamad and Scott Lazer, released the newest episode of “Inevitable” (Season One) — a new limited audio series that launched last week with each episode diving into, and titled after, J. Cole’s vast discography. The latest episode is named after the 2010 project Friday Night Lights and dropped on Wednesday alongside the mixtape’s release across DSPs.

Happy 53rd Birthday To Treach Of Naughty By Nature! Five Degrees Of Success

by
treach naughty by nature eminem

treach naughty by nature eminem

Today in 1970 in “Illtown” New Jersey, the king of “OPP”, better known as Treach, was born. For those who don’t know, Treach was the frontman for the New Jersey rap collective Naughty By Nature. Born Anthony Criss in East Orange, New Jersey, Treach got his musical start in his hometown. He, Vin Rock, and DJ Kay Gee came together as the group New Style and released an album called Independent Leaders in 1989. Treach and Naughty by Nature saw the majority of their success with their 1991 single “O.P.P”. This song featured a sample from The Jackson 5’s “ABC” and debuted at #6 on the Billboard 200 chart making it one of the most popular crossover songs in rap history. The success of this single opened the doors for Treach to venture into other elements of Hip Hop culture in the 90s. Starting with a guest appearance in the 1992 cult classic Juice, Treach began the next wave of his career as an actor. His biggest role came in 194 when he starred as “A-1” in Jason’s Lyric.

In honor of his birthday, we have put together a list of the five degrees of success that put Treach in the room with other influential voices in Hip Hop and popular culture.

76233821-1431379089

1. Sandra ‘Pepa’ Denton– First on this list is “Pepa” of the legendary Salt N Pepa. From 1998 to 2001, the two were joined together in holy matrimony. They share a daughter beautifully named Egypt Jahnari Criss born September 2, 1998.

2. Tupac Shakur– In his first big-screen appearance, Tupac played the role of “Bishop” in the cult classic Juice. If you remember correctly, Bishop was not a character who made friends easily. At the beginning of the movie, Bishop has beef with a character named Radames and if you pay attention, you can see Treach standing behind Radames as he and Bishop have one of their many verbal altercations.

3. James Gandolfini– Who doesn’t love a good mob story? In 2006, Treach’s TV acting prowess landed him a gig on an episode of The Sopranos as the character “Marvin”. His role was short-lived, but not many are able to say they played the opposite of the infamous Tony Soprano.

4. Queen Latifah– This fellow New Jersey rapper was in and out of Treach’s musical and acting career. She was one of the first successful artists to give Naughty By Nature the attention they deserved. She has featured Treach on songs throughout her discography. She was even cast alongside Treach in his first big-screen appearance (although they were never on screen together).

5. Leonardo DiCaprio-Although this relationship may be more loosely based than the rest, it’s important none the less. Naughty’s track “Hip Hop Hooray” was featured on the soundtrack of the very successful film Wolf of Wall Street starring Leo DiCaprio in 2013.

Dave Blunts’ Performance At Juice WRLD Day Leads To Wave Of Criticism Online

by

Dave Blunts was one of a couple of performers at Juice WRLD Day at Chicago’s United Center on Saturday (November 30), and he was probably among the most notable. Moreover, he took to the stage with an oxygen tank, and this decision resulted in a lot of backlash online. Many fans criticized Blunts’ entourage for allowing him to perform in such conditions, others took aim at the rapper himself for his weight and life decisions, and a few fans became more critical of the Juice WRLD Day organizers for promoting this image to honor a late rapper who passed away due to substance abuse.

During Dave Blunts’ performance, he also called out Snoop Dogg for clowning him online, and Snoop couldn’t help but just laugh in response. “That was funny,” he said while laughing boisterously. “Go ahead, lil’ homie – I mean big homie… I ain’t f***ing with you… I apologize to this n***a. He’s still going off on me. I must be getting old.” “Well put down the chicken wings and Tata chips Nefew and that chair gone break soon get to the end of the cup,” Snoop had commented online in reference to Blunts’ “The Cup” song and music video.

Dave Blunts’ Juice WRLD Day Performance Leads To Backlash

Apart from Dave Blunts, plenty of other rappers also attended Juice WRLD Day in Chicago, commemorating the late rap legend’s life and legacy. It comes at a pretty interesting time for his artistry, as a lot of fans didn’t really like his posthumous – and final – album, The Party Never Ends. Still, at this point, real fans know the gems in the catalog, and so they can continue to mourn and celebrate Juice in their own way.

More Reactions

However, a lot of these fans find it pretty odd that Dave Blunts performed at Juice WRLD Day, and there were a lot of divisive and varied reactions to his appearance. Some fans expressed a stronger aversion to The Party Never Ends, and this contributes to a pretty weird moment for the fanbase. Hopefully fans can continue to have respectful and empathetic conversations about these topics rather than just blindly sending hate or mockery someone’s way.

Metro Boomin Completed A Perfect Sequence Two Years Ago Today With “Superhero (Heroes & Villains)”

by

Metro Boomin had always been a very respectable and exciting producing talent prior to what we know him to be now. To clarify, he is now indeed one of the most in-demand visionaries of the modern rap era. But back in the mid-2010s, he was more a name on the rise. He had some hit records under his belt, with a majority of them being with Future. Their effortless connection on tracks is a big reason why he’s at where he’s at. Overall, there aren’t many better rapper/producer duos than these trap icons. But they boldly decided to take a break from collaborating following the release of Pluto’s 2017 self-titled album.

Things still wound up working out for both of them, though. Fewtch was still making wavy and ignorant bangers, and Metro was honing in on creating a more recognizable sound. However, everyone wanted to see them get back in the lab together at some point soon. Well, it took about five years too long, as they finally linked back up on Metro’s sophomore effort, HEROES & VILLAINS. Fans wouldn’t have to wait until the backend of the tracklist to hear them again, as Future took us back in time to his dominant 2015 run with a spectacular and fiery performance on the second cut, “Superhero” with Chris Brown. It was a ceremonious event and remains to be one for us every time we revisit this timeless track. Making it even more special is how well it capitalized on the grand and operatic opener “On Time.” It’s one of the best back-to-back sequences in hip-hop in years on a top-tier trap record.

“Superhero (Heroes & Villains)” – Metro Boomin, Future, & Chris Brown

Quotable Lyrics:

Told you from the begin, upper echelon
I get to stackin’ up, I’m untouchable
I get to represent, money multiple
I’m at the top of the charts, unapproachable
Bread by the loaf, turbo the motor
Tic-Tac-Toe, kill another vulture
