50 Cent & Hunxho To Replace Chris Brown & Muni Long For Dreamville Fest

Music fans will be able to go to the fifth annual Dreamville Fest in Raleigh, North Carolina in just a few days. J. Cole got this event underway near the precipice of COVID-19 in 2019. Since its inception it has been one of the best festivals for hip-hop fans. This year the two-day event will begin this Saturday, April 6, and go through Sunday, April 7. In 2023 it was a stacked lineup, with Drake and Cole headlining the last day. This time around, 50 Cent and SZA will be the main attractions for Dreamville Fest. Nicki Minaj and Cole will wrap things up the following day.

You may be wondering though, why 50 Cent? Well, the roster had some tweaks made just hours ago. The Dreamville Fest X account sent out a tweet announcing the key changes. “We are excited to share that 50 Cent and Hunxho have been added to the lineup! See you this weekend! 🌻 Due to unforeseen circumstances, Chris Brown and Muni Long are no longer performing at Dreamville Fest.”

50 Cent & Hunxho Will Perform On Separate Days

Reasons for the tweaks are still unknown, but some fans are not too happy about Chris Brown not being able to make it. In fact, with the changes being announced on April Fools’ Day, some think its a ruse. “I hope it’s April fool cos I want to see Chris on that stage,” one person says. Another chimes in, “Would’ve preferred if 50 was replacing Nicki instead lol but it is what it is. (this may or may not be April fools but I’m fine either way so 😂🤷🏾‍♀️)” However, with Dreamville Fest just five days away and with complications like this a normality, this appears to be true.

What are your thoughts on 50 Cent and Hunxho joining Dreamville Fest and replacing Chris Brown and Muni Long? Do you think this is an April Fool’s joke, why or why not? If you do not like 50 and Hunxho making the list of performers, who should they have gotten? Are you going to be attending any of the shows?

[WATCH] Stevie J To 50 Cent Over Homosexual Claims: I Wanna Shoot The Fade

Screenshot 2024 03 29 at 11.04.28 AM

Ever since the raid on Diddy’s L.A. and Miami homes by Homeland Security in a sex trafficking investigation, 50 Cent has been a roll in trolling the Bad Boy mogul during his legal woes, but now he’s turned the scope to former Bad Boy producer and reality star Stevie J and he’s made it clear that he’s not with the sh*ts.

After it was reported that Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones Jr. filed a lawsuit last month against Diddy where he claims the mogul forced him to have sex with male prostitutes, he named producer Stevie J in the suit and even had photos that were allegedly “screenshots of the video of Stevie J anally penetrating a Caucasian male that Mr. Combs provided to Mr. Jones.”

Even with porn star D’Angelo Marquis admitting that it was him in the photos, Fif still decided to take it to Stevie on IG. “whoa say it ain’t so @hitmansteviej_1 WTF, this shit is a mess,” read his caption under screenshots of the transcriptions from the lawsuit.

In the comments, the producer replied, “Get ya money Curtis we know this entertainment but ain’t no truth to dat!” He then replied to a fan and added, “n-gga must be ready to meet his maker,” before making a video telling Fif he wants all the smoke.

“Curtis what’s good, man? You in your feelings about Daphne because she with the gang now? Or is that you sucking Lil Rod dick? However it go, I wanna shoot the fade n-gga. Fuck all that. Since it’s entertainment, let me beat the shit out of you on TV or something. Don’t duck that. I’m calling you out. What you wanna do, Curtis? Curtisss!”

50 Cent Is Accused Of Rape And Physical Abuse By His Child’s Mother, Daphne Joy

50 Cent is being accused of rape and physical abuse. Today (March 28), Daphne Joy, the mother of his child, took to her Instagram stories, where she called out the “In Da Club” rapper after she was named as a sex worker in a new lawsuit related to Diddy.

Following the lawsuit, 50 took to Twitter blasting Joy, saying “You moved a mile away in hopes of having another baby with me but I was busy. So you moved back and then you started receiving money from Brother Love. Now here we are, little sex worker.”

Joy, however, decided she would no longer accept 50’s trolling behavior.

“Let’s put the real focus on your true evil actions of raping me and physically abusing me,” said Joy. “You are no longer my oppressor and my God will handle you from this point on.”

Together, Joy and 50 share their son, Sire, 12. In Joy’s note, she said 50 “permanently damaged the last hope I had for you as a father to preserve our family with these last and final false claims made against me.” She also said 50 only saw Sire “10 times out of the 2 years” since Joy moved to New York so she and Sire could be closer to 50.

In a statement to Page Six, 50 has denied the allegations, saying “The disturbing allegations in the sworn pleadings recently filed in a court case related to Daphne Joy the mother of my 12-year-old child, has required me to take all necessary legal actions to protect my son Sire. The most recent false and baseless accusations by Daphne Joy are clearly in response to my decision to seek sole custody of my son. My son Sire is my main priority and keeping him in a safe environment is my only focus at this time.”

You can read Joy’s full statement below.

Curtis James Jackson

Everything is a joke to you until our safety is compromised, which is happening right now. You are wreaking real havoc, frenzy, and chaos unto people’s lives. How would u if Sire was the one in handcuffs? For nothing.

We moved to New York to give you the opportunity to be a father to your son and you saw him 10 times out of the 2 years that we lived 1 mile away. I am tired of upholding and protecting an image to our son that you have never even earned.

Let’s put the real focus on your true evil actions of raping me and physically abusing me. You are no longer my oppressor and my God will handle you from this point on. You have permanently damaged the last hope I had for you as a father to preserve our family with these last and final false claims made against me. You have broken our hearts for the last and final time.

Stevie J Wants To Fight 50 Cent Over Recent Claims About Diddy

This week there have been a lot of celebrities online sharing thoughts about Diddy. That’s because at the start of the week two of his residences were raided by the feds. They revealed that the raids were in connection with sex trafficking allegations. That came just a few weeks after a lawsuit from Lil Rod made some evocative claims about the rap mogul having sex with other male celebrities and musicians like Stevie J. That one aspect became one of the most talked about details of the entire Diddy saga.

While plenty have been rushing to get their thoughts in recently, 50 Cent has been talking about Diddy nearly nonstop for months. Dating all the way back to Cassie initial lawsuit last year, which broke the dam of accusations against the rap mogul through, 50 has been talking. He was posting on Instagram nearly daily trying to find new ways to take shots at Diddy. Unsurprisingly, that never really slowed up and it’s kicked into overdrive in the past few days. But he might have taken a step too far with one particular post that drew the ire of Stevie J and even resulted in a threat aimed back at him. Check out the post and response below.

Stevie J Wants To Fight Diddy

After seeing 50 include his name in grooming allegations, Stevie J clapped back. In a video he shared he called out the rapper directly. He doesn’t hesitate in straight up saying he wants to fight him in a televised bout. Stevie claims he wants to “shoot the fade” with the rapper following his newest allegations. He then makes it very clear that he believes in himself not just to start the fight, but win it.

What do you think of Stevie J threatening to fight 50 Cent over claims he made online? Do you think 50 needs to be careful with who he speaks about publicly? Let us know in the comment section below.

50 Cent On Diddy: ‘Ran Off & Left The Kids In The Whole Shit’

50 Cent Eyes Revolt Purchase After Diddy Stepped Down as CEO

Leave it to 50 Cent to bring humor to a more or less serious situation.

As previously reported, the Feds have raided Diddy’s homes in New York, Miami, and Beverly Hills. This news broke the internet, with helicopters hovering over Diddy’s house and even his kids being handcuffed.

So, who better than 50 Cent to comment on the news?

Famously known for his trolling on Instagram, the G-Unit founder let loose a series of posts that may have added humor to this dark day.

The first was a photo of Diddy’s sons, King Combs and Justin Combs in handcuffs. His caption: “Shit just got real 👀the Fed’s in all the cribs, damn they got the kids in cuffs. 🤦

The next post shows the TMZ headline, with the caption: “Now it’s not Diddy do it, it’s Diddy done 🤷🏽‍♂️they don’t come like that unless they got a case.”

This next post might be the most hilarious one, as 50 posts a video of a commentator called it a “Freako” instead of a “Rico.”

The last post is news that Diddy’s jet is headed towards Cape Verde. Thanks 50 Cent for the play by play!

Tia Kemp’s “Smooth” Cover Revisits 50 Cent & Rick Ross’ 2000s Beef

Being a rapper’s baby mama is something that many Instagram baddies aspire to, but these days, MCs are becoming increasingly protective of who they start families with. Sophie Brussaux and Drake’s co-parenting situation was tricky when Adonis was first born, but they’ve been able to navigate the muddy waters and get themselves to a good place. The same can’t be said for Rick Ross and Tia Kemp, who continue to trade shots online long after their issues began in the 2000s.

Earlier this week, throwback photos of the social media personality surfaced, dating back to her 2009 Smooth cover shoot. Not only does Rozay’s ex wear barely anything for the photos, but to add insult to injury she had 50 Cent pose alongside her. In the cover shot, Kemp confidently stands above the New Yorker in just black panties, a sparkly see-through cover-up, and vibrant red heels. From the ground, Curtis Jackson holds an old-school camera up at Kemp, seeking to capture more sexy photos of her. “Where’s the beef? Guest editor 50 Cent introduces Rock Ross’ baby mama Tia!” one of the subheadings on the magazine declares.

As the saucy pictures make rounds on Twitter/X and blogs, some are just now finding out that Fif and the Biggest Boss’ drama is nothing new. “Backstory: Rick Ross repossessed a Range Rover from Tia Kemp, leaving her and their son without a vehicle, until, you guessed it, 50 Cent stepped in.”

As her online war with Rick Ross rages onward, Tia Kemp continues to spill tea about her co-parent online. Among her latest revelations are allegations about Rozay having a secret child who resembles Drake, causing hip-hop heads to raise their eyebrows. Read all about that at the link below, and check back later for more music/pop culture news updates.

Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, And 50 Cent Collaborate… To Mock Jimmy Kimmel’s Genitals In A Comedy Sketch

Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, and 50 Cent are four of the best to ever do it when it comes to hip-hop. Now, the four have come together on one project… that project being a Jimmy Kimmel Live! sketch.

The skit — which aired last night, March 19) is about a fictional TV show called Dre’s Anatomy, and anatomy is the issue here. The video starts with Kimmel being rushed into a hospital room, where Dr. Dre (playing an actual medical doctor, of course) lifts the blanket covering the host’s waist and is shocked by what he finds (or rather, doesn’t find).

Dre says, “What the f*ck is this? This man has no penis.”

Kimmel is confused by that, but Dre calls on “Dr. Broadus” (Snoop) for a second opinion. Even with help from a magnifying glass, Snoop has trouble locating the penis. 50 Cent then comes in with a telescope, focused squarely on Kimmel’s crotch, and still nothing. They eventually put Kimmel under anesthesia (which sure looks like weed smoke) before the beeping machines start producing the beat to “Still D.R.E.,” which gets a party started.

After the Dre’s Anatomy promo ends, it segues into a quick teaser for another fictional medical show, EM. Eminem makes a cameo, holding a syringe and deadpanning to the camera, “You only get one shot.” 50 enters and interjects, “One shot? I got shot nine times.” Eminem replies, “That’s a weird flex, but… OK.”

Check out the skit above. The group (minus Eminem) also sat down for a lengthy interview with Kimmel, so check that out below.

Users Online Are Relentlessly Clowning ‘BMF’ For The Show’s ‘Off-Brand’ Casting Of The Late Tupac In Its Latest Episode

Tupac I Like It Like That Premiere 1994

50 Cent’s original series, BMF, is all about the rise and fall of the Black Mafia Family. The public remembers the real-life enterprise as ‘Blowin’ Money Fast,’ thanks to its many references in rap music. But its latest episode shows that writers are the ones speedy through materials. Users online have taken to X (formerly Twitter) to call out the show for what they believe to be a historical inaccuracy and a questionable casting decision.

In its latest episode, “Sanctuary” (Season 3, Episode 3), the series’ main character, Meech (played by Demetrius “Lil Meech” Flenory Jr., yes, that’s his actual father) so, happens to run into the late Tupac (played by Mason Douglas). The episode’s description explains that the encounter, seemingly inspired by true events, would’ve taken place at the Jack the Rapper Weekend in 1993.

However, users online couldn’t help but clown the series for the ‘off-brand’ portrayal of the rap legend. Others called about the series from time jumping, making the encounter highly unlikely.

Check out a few of the responses below.

“‘BMF’ can’t be serious with this TEMU version of Tupac,” wrote one user.

“Boy, what da f*ck LMAO,” penned a user.

“And people thought it couldn’t get any worse than Anthony Mackie’s version of Tupac,” laughed one user.

“3Pac,” joked another.

“TUPAC NOTSHUR,” added another.

Some users attempted to defend the scene by verifying the event details. “For everyone confused, Meech is attending the 1993 Jack the Rapper convention; that’s why Tupac is bald. They briefly show us the Wu-Tang Clan and Kid n Play, too,” explained one user.

But others were going for the breakdown. “It’s supposed to be 1990/91 in the show, though, not 93. Season 1 was 89. Timelines aren’t matching up, and that’s where the confusion is stemming from,” replied a user.

BMF is exclusively available on Starz. To watch the latest episode, click here.
