Popcaan & M1llionz Connect On The FaNaTiX’s “These Streets (Don’t Luv U)”

by

Looking at the production discography of The Fanatix might take you a couple of days to go through. They’ve had a hand in some of the biggest records out of the UK and Caribbean in the past few years, even having worked alongside Nicki Minaj, among many others. The production team returned over the weekend with a massive new collaboration alongside Popcaan and rising UK drill rapper M1llionz for “These Streets (Don’t Luv U).” The single finds Popcaan and M1llionz finding a common ground between their distinctive styles, though it does lean closer to the drill sound than dancehall. The menacing banger has the two artists detailing the ins-and-outs of the streets in both the UK and Jamaica.

Check out the new collaboration below and sound off with your thoughts in the comments.

Quotable Lyrics
Also, before anything, buy a wap, you gone trip running fast in them Gucci sandals
And thesе drugs man a selling, I ain’t got no links for Lloyds or Scotia
It’s real in the trеnches in Seaview Gardens live right now with a six-shot revolver

Rick Ross’ Georgia Estate Surrounded By Cops Following Police Chase

by

Rick Ross has one of the biggest, most luxurious homes in Georgia if not, the United States. Formerly owned by Evander Holyfield, Ross has constantly flaunted the home on social media which likely helped secure the estate as the set for Coming 2 America with Eddie Murphy. Unfortunately, it’s currently surrounded by cops following a police chase with an allegedly armed man.

According to TMZ, a man who police said was armed with a gun reportedly led officials on a vehicle pursuit on Tuesday. Police said they were responding to a call about a man with a gun which turned into a police chase. The car ended up crashing right by Rick Ross home before fleeing the scene.

Police have reportedly arrested the driver but they’ve yet to find any firearm. Police said that they’re searching for the alleged gun on and around Rick Ross’ property. No word on if Rick Ross was home at the time of the incident. Photos reveal that there are tons of sheriff’s deputies around the rapper’s home.

In other Rick Ross-related news, the rapper recently was spotted alongside Pharrell Williams as fans anticipate Richer Than I Ever Been. The producer and rapper have formed an excellent rapport with one another on wax so, naturally, fans have been expecting a collaboration from the two on Rozay’s next album. 

We’ll keep you posted on any more updates regarding the situation at Ross’ Georgia estate.

Logan & Jake Paul Get 24/7 Security Because Of Floyd Mayweather Threat

by

The debacle at Floyd Mayweather and Logan Paul‘s recent press conferences has reportedly caused the boxing brothers to beef up their security. In less than a month, Mayweather and Paul will face-off in one of the most anticipated bouts of the year thus far, but it was Jake Paul who stole attention at the press conference. He decided to grab his brother’s spotlight in his continual taunting of Mayweather and snatched the boxing icon’s hat off of his head. The display was captured by cameras and shared globally on social media, and millions saw Mayweather threaten to kill Jake while in the thick of his anger after feeling disrespected. 

Following the incident, Jake tweeted that Floyd sent his goons after him, and now both Paul brothers tell TMZ that they’ve added a 24-7 detail because they fear Mayweather will make good on his threat.

“Dawg, when you have a guy with the resources and the wealth that Floyd Mayweather has and the connection and the network and he’s saying sh*t, ‘I’mma kill that motherf*cker’ — kill?! Death?!” said Logan. “You’re gonna kill my brother over a f*cking hat?! Yo, we take that sh*t seriously man!” He added that both he and his brother travel with security all day, every day.

The outlet reports that Logan did share that Jake wouldn’t be filing a police report or going to court over the impassioned threat, with Jake adding that would be “b*tch sh*t, bro.” Meanwhile, Jake and Logan, in good ol’ fashioned boxing fun, have remained on the trolling train. Jake has received a “Gotcha Hat” tattoo and is continuing his demand to meet Mayweather in the ring. Jake has been banned from being in the arena to watch his brother’s fight against Mayweather.

Soulja Boy is facing some legal troubles. As the rapper enjoys the success of his latest single, “She Make It Clap,” an effort that went No. 1 on TikTok, he was reportedly hit with a lawsuit from his ex-girlfriend. According to TMZ, Soulja Boy was sued for alleged sexual battery and domestic abuse by his former partner, who chose to stay anonymous and be known as Jane Doe in the lawsuit that was filed in Los Angeles Superior Court. She claims to have started dating Soulja Boy back in 2007 before entering a serious relationship with him from 2014 to 2019, but she says that she exited it because she could “no longer stand the abuse.”

The rapper’s ex-girlfriend also accuses him of attacking her in 2015, an incident she says resulted in a miscarriage and the removal of her uterine lining. She also claims (via TMZ) that Soulja Boy “began to physically attack and yell at her” while they were filming their reality TV show, and in 2019, she alleges that he physically removed her and her daughter from their shared home, and when she later refused to enter back into a relationship with him, he allegedly “gripped [Doe’s] neck and choked her while threatening her life.”

This is the rapper’s second lawsuit of the year after he was sued (in January) for alleged sexual battery, sexual assault, and false imprisonment by his former personal assistant, who also filed under Jane Doe.

Andra Day Talks Dealing With Porn & Sex Addiction While Portraying Billie Holiday

by

Her acclaimed performance as Billie Holiday earned her a Golden Globe win and made her an Oscar nominee, but behind the scenes, Andra Day was dealing with a bevy of issues related to her character. The actress revealed that she shed 40 pounds to portray the Jazz icon who gained fame during the 1930s until her controversial death in 1959 from alcohol and drug-related complications. 

Day is sitting pretty as InStyle‘s latest cover star and discussed The United States vs. Billie Holiday, mentioning that she wanted to make sure that her portrayal of the singer wasn’t seeped in hypersexualization or sensual overtones because of what she’s overcome in her personal life.

Holiday entered a Jazz scene that was male-dominated, but Day wanted to make sure Holiday’s talents and struggles with addiction were highlighted, not her sexuality. “I didn’t want any element of sexualization. I had come out of something in my own life — dealing with porn addiction, sex addiction,” said the actress. “I’m being very, very candid with you because I’m not the only one. But I knew I wanted all of that very much gone.”

“I feel now, after playing Billie, that I’m honoring her, and the strength that is femininity,” she added. “I’m definitely in a healthier place to enjoy that because I’m outside of the addiction, if you will. So, yeah, it’s been really fun, because it’s been very new for me.” Check out a few images from Andra Day’s InStyle feature below.
