While fans are eager to see if TDE’s biggest stars like SZA and Kendrick Lamar are going to drop albums in 2021, it’s the label’s deep roster that has always made them such a beloved crew. Tonight, Isaiah Rashad helped tide listeners over by sharing a track that didn’t quite make the cut for his upcoming album, House Is Burning. The Tennessee native recently shared another new track, “Lay With Ya” featuring fellow Tennessean, rapper Duke Deuce of Memphis, and tonight’s new track is similarly influenced by southern rap sounds.
Broken into two parts, “200/Warning” showcases exactly why fans have been missing Rashad so much — his last album, The Sun’s Tirade was released all the way back in 2016. In the intervening five years, a lot has changed in the industry, but Rashad’s sound has only sharpened and the southern style he favors has moved farther into the mainstream. As much as he’s progressed, tonight’s casual release proves the Chattanooga-born artist isn’t above releasing a song on SoundCloud while he’s gearing up for the more formal album release.
Everyone go thank Nacho. Not on the albumhttps://t.co/L6I0sp6dgw

While no date has officially been set yet, fans expect the long-awaited project, first teased in 2019, will finally be coming sometime this month. Check out “200/Warning” above and look for more from Rashad very soon.
If social media posts are to be believed, Juju Castaneda may have just gotten married in Las Vegas. Everyone is back outside now that vaccines are plentiful and mandates have been dropped, and Juju and a few of her friends were lit in Las Vegas. The Love & Hip Hop star is well known for her relationship with Dipset’s Cam’ron, as the two were together for nine years. For the last four years of the romance, Juju and Cam’ron were engaged.
On Monday (May 31), videos were shared online showing Juju being escorted down the aisle with her beau, and by the looks of their attire, they may have decided on this at the last minute.
Some people are already saying that it’s all for show and the couple seemed intoxicated during the chapel ceremony, but despite the ambiance, they looked happily in love. Juju and her man, known as CEO22Wayz on Instagram, embraced one another and lavished each other in kisses as their friends are heard off-camera screaming with joy.
While on Love & Hip Hop, Juju went on a journey of being with Cam’ron, dealing with their breakup, and considering dating once again after the dust settled on their split. She has been fiercely private about her personal life so this wedding display came as a surprise to the public. Check out a few clips of the wedding below and let us know if you think this is the real deal.
That MadGic album is finished, according to Logic, and it was completed in just one day. Madlib and Logic have linked up to form MadGic, a collaborative effort that has dragged the rapper out of retirement. Fans wished him farewell after he announced that he would be bowing out of the Rap game following No Pressure, but Logic later stated that if there was someone who could beckon him back to the mic, it would be Madlib.
We received the first MadGic track at the end of April in the form of their single “Mars Only Pt. 3,” and just 10 days ago, they delivered their second offering, “Raddest Dad.” We’re in the thick of the MadGic rollout season because the Hip Hop duo is back once again, this time with “Mafia Music,” a track that takes listeners on a three-part journey as Madlib delivers an impressive production once again. It sounds as if Logic is freestyling through this one and fans are already praising both artists.
Stream MadGic’s “Mafia Music” and let us know what you think.
Quotable Lyrics
F*ck the bullsh*t, we out here getting money and more sh*t
I used to steal from Target and so did GameStop
Leave you like Leo in Departed, you better f*ckin’ stop
Mafia music, I live the life, I don’t choose it
No I could never abuse it
It chose me, I don’t refuse it
Retired but I’m rapping every day, I can’t lose it
After the initial video of her concert went viral, Coi Leray received encouraging words from Nicki Minaj. A snippet of Leray in concert circulated online showing the artist on stage performing as a large crowd stood silent in the audience. Leray was ridiculed online and returned to share that she’d felt brow-beaten, but Minaj sent her a public message telling her to keep her chin up.
Meanwhile, one of the concertgoers seen in the viral clip took to TikTok to share what really happened. “I don’t think anybody understands how embarrassed I am because I’ve been getting texts, calls, repost tags all day,” the woman said.
“Basically, I was just confused,” she continued. “It was really bad timing too, ’cause when she came out on stage, everybody was like real hype, but I guess she started performing her newer songs first and everybody was really like, looking for ‘Big Purr’ and ‘No More Parties,’ so that’s what happened right there. Nobody knew the songs.”
She added that when Leray finally performed her two hits, “she was good, we got right.” A TikTok user wanted to see what the crowd looked like during “Big Purr” and “No More Parties,” and while the crowd was more interactive, they didn’t liven up much. “I didn’t say it was a rager or nothin’, nothin’ like that man. I just said it was better than the mannequin challenge.”

One false move, you a goner
We was maskin’ up before corona
Young n*gga hangin’ out the Bentley
Wide arms swing around the corner
Paper tag this is not a loaner
Drug dealer, this one for the owners
Now that his “Montero (Call Me By Your Name)” controversy has settled and hoopla over that embarrassing pant-splitting moment on Saturday Night Live has come to an end, Lil Nas X is back to enjoying himself on social media. The “Old Town Road” star has often spoken about being a part of the social media generation and not taking trolling seriously because he’s used to online antics, and he’s no stranger to displaying a few of his own when he has time.
The singer stole attention on Monday (May 31) after he appeared in a new TikTok video where he listed off women he “would try to date if” he “was straight.”
The list included SZA, Billie Eilish, and TikTok star Quenlin Blackwell (who was recently booted out of Diplo’s house following their controversy), but not all Lil Nas X fans were happy about his clip. Some people complained about the singer doing this for clout, alleging that it was a lead-up to him announcing he’s bisexual, something Lil Nas X has not even hinted at. He posted the video to his Twitter account but quickly took it down without explanation.
Check out the video below for yourself and let us know what you think of Lil Nas X’s choices.
Once Tristan Thompson squeezed himself out of the way of one controversy, another scandal was waiting in the wings. The NBA star took over social media back in 2019 when his name was involved in an entanglement of sorts with Jordyn Woods, causing Tristan and girlfriend Khloé Kardashian to split. Thompson quietly rekindled things with Khloé and they seemed to be on the up and up before a woman came forward with allegations that she’d slept with the basketball star.
As Thompson takes that woman to court over her allegations, another woman named Kim Cakery also surfaced with a few accusations of her own. According to Cakery, Thompson is the father of her young son, but Thompson has reportedly stated that they took a DNA test and it proved he isn’t the boy’s dad. Thompson did, however, admit to…interacting…with Cakery years ago, long before the boy was conceived.
On Instagram, Cakery has regularly called out both Thompson and Kardashian. Recently, she posted a screenshot that suggested Khloé DMed her about this debacle, and it showed as an unopened message. In the image, all the viewer can see is a preview of a message that looks to be sent from Kardashian stating, “Listen at this point I really wa.” In the caption, Cakery wrote, “Sister wife now that ur exposed??… I’m not the one so let’s be nice.”
However, The Shade Room shared a screen recording showing that the previewed message was from Cakery to Kardashian, not the other way around. Since the proof was shared, Cakery has made her page private and has been widely criticized for faking the interaction. Check it out below.
The talk of the town today is Noami Osaka’s shocking decision to withdraw completely from the French Open in order to take care of her mental health. The move has brought the subject of mental health back to the forefront of discussions, especially as it pertains to players in the sports world. Osaka has been both praised and criticized for her decision, and Serena Williams, who just triumphed over Irina-Camelia Begu in the first round of the French Open, commented on the controversy following her match.
“I feel for Naomi,” Williams said. “Not everyone is the same. I’m thick. Other people are thin. Everyone is different and everyone handles things differently.”
“You really have to step forward and make an effort, just as in anything, and say, ‘I need help with A, B, C and D,’ and talk to someone,” she added. “I think that’s so important to have a sounding board, whether it’s someone at the WTA, or someone in your life, or maybe it’s someone you talk to on a weekly basis.”
“I’ve been in that position, too, and I’ve definitely had opportunities to talk to people and just get things off my chest that I can’t necessarily talk about to anyone in my family or anyone I know.” Osaka has remained a trending topic on multiple social media platforms throughout the day (May 31) as people like Piers Morgan and Candance Owens have criticized her for sharing her mental health struggles publicly, as they believe she’s doing it for sympathy.

Storytellers like Jay Z are few and far between.
When he’s not dropping hilarious stories about his superstar peers, like remembering how hard it was to follow up DMX as a live act, or sharing backstories about classic rap songs he actually wrote, then there’s the subject of his incredibly famous family. That was the subject of his latest viral tidbit from an episode of LeBron James’ The Shop: Uninterrupted, when Jay let know that he never learned to swim until Blue Ivy was born. To his thinking, there wasn’t much point before, but once her life was in his hands, his reasoning changed.
Jay Z explaining how Blue motivated him to learn how to swim gives me the feels.

“I didn’t learn how to swim until Blue was born,” he began. “There goes everything you need to know. This is a metaphor for our relationship. If she ever fell in the water and I couldn’t get her, I couldn’t even fathom that thought. I gotta learn how to swim. That’s it. That was the beginning of our relationship.”
In the clip above, he goes on to speak more specifically to how small moments with her are how he now celebrates huge wins like finding out he was officially going to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame. Check out the snippet and for more Jay Z stories watch full episodes of The Shop on HBO.
