His career is maintaining an all-time high and it looks as if his relationship with JT is solid, but Lil Uzi Vert has expressed he isn’t doing well at the moment. The rapper and his City Girls girlfriend have finally gone public with their romance after what seemed like over a year of rumors, and they’ve enjoyed being out in the open about their relationship. However, both Uzi and JT have faced backlash and criticism from the public as they endure harassment from trolls and online bullies.

After showing off their matching tattoos, Uzi and JT have taken a step back from giving fans too much of an inside look into their personal lives. Uzi resurfaced on Twitter earlier today with a few messages that disturbed the public and now people are pleading with the rapper to get help.

“So I’m literally getting broke down into pieces,” he tweeted. He sent and deleted another tweet that read, “I’m ready to die [bed emoji].” Then, Uzi added, “Song titles I’m back on my f*ck it sh*t” and “And honestly I just been working to hard that I felt like that so I named 2 songs after my emotions.”

It seems that Uzi was just expressing himself and dropping new titles, but people were still concerned. Check out the tweets below.

If fans thought that Summer Walker was distant and standoffish already, they haven’t seen anything yet. Over the years, Summer Walker has received criticism from the public due to her behavior when interacting with fans at her shows or meet-and-greets. The chart-topping singer later revealed that she has social anxiety and some interactions make her uncomfortable, so she’s adjusted to fit into her active music career. Summer has often shared her life with her fanbase, but she has made it clear—more than once—that once her daughter was born, she wouldn’t be sharing photos of her baby girl.

Although Summer has kept her word, she has uploaded images with her little girl’s face covered by emojis. Still, that didn’t keep critics from storming the internet with comments about the newborn’s weight, and after people threatened to call Child Protective Services on the singer, Summer Walker revealed she’s cutting off contact with the public.

First, she shared dozens of sideways laughing emojis with the message, “Watch this.” She added, “Diva mode activated,” before quoting a Rap lyric. “Keep a couple wet wipes in case a bum try to touch me, ew – Nicki Minaj.” If people didn’t get the full scope of Summer’s anger, she wrote, “Pictures, hugs, casual chats, autographs Deadianna.” 

Fans commented that it would be difficult for Walker to maintain a successful career without fan interaction, but the singer seems unmoved. Check out Summer Walker’s posts below.

He didn’t have a lengthy Hollywood career but Kevin Clark was still an icon for a generation of School of Rock lovers. The 2003 film starring Jack Black centered around a teacher who hilariously builds the confidences of a team of misfit children and forms them into a real rock band. Kevin Clark portrayed the drummer, Freddy Jones nicknamed Spazzy McGee, and according to TMZ, he later said he got the role because he could actually play the drums.

Although School of Rock was his only movie role, Clark was a beloved musician who was known to play gigs in the Chicago area. On Wednesday (May 26), tragic news surfaced stating that Clark had passed away following a bike accident. He was 32.

Clark was immediately rushed to the hospital but sadly died from his injuries. TMZ stated that the woman who struck Clark wasn’t arrested at the scene, however, officers issued her citations. People have flooded social media with tributes, including Jack Black who grieved in a solemn post to the fallen musician.
