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.

Halo Hilariously Indicates That His Dad DDG Doesn’t Have The Best Hygiene

by

DDG and Halle Bailey love to show off their son Halo on social media, although sometimes, they might want to make sure that he can’t inadvertently make fun of them for the ‘Gram. Moreover, the former was recently recording his son as they both just chilled out on a bed, and Halo put on a hilarious “stank face” after smelling his dad’s armpit. In fact, he even let out an audible “Ugh.” It was pretty hilarious and follows some other viral moments featuring the near-one-year-old, even as the drama between his recently split parents continues to go up and down.

Fortunately, it seems like things are much better for DDG and Halle Bailey these days, and it’s great that they can stay connected and support each other through Halo. Also, that certainly is a plus when they face a lot of trolls and nasty online comments via social media, such as a lot of clowning when the former shaved his facial hair off. The important thing is to just recognize when to present a united front against the haters and when to instead advocate for yourself in the relationship.

Halo Seems To Think His Dad DDG Is Stinky

For example, Halle Bailey and DDG recently faced a situation that involved both of these aspects regarding their son Halo. When the latter took the little one to Kai Cenat’s stream without Halle’s permission, she expressed a lot of frustration. While she eventually apologized for this pop-off, the Michigan rapper defended her from the critics online, explaining that she’s fully within her right to advocate for herself. So not only did they have to come to an agreement on a private matter that became public, but they also had to make sure not to conflate their frustrations with fans’ hateful remarks.

Meanwhile, some folks think that DDG and Halle Bailey are rekindling their romance, but if Halo has anything to say about it, he’d probably recommend his pops a better deodorant before trying again. Jokes aside, we’re sure plenty more adorable content will come from them no matter what relationship status they pursue. Hopefully their child brings them closer together and not further apart.

Lil Xan Gets Body-Slammed In New Footage Of His Mid-Concert Attack Towards Fan In The Crowd

by

Lil Xan recently became a little too aggressive at a show, as he kicked a fan in the crowd in the face and threw a mic at him during a Saturday night (November 23) concert at the Boston nightclub Royale. Moreover, new footage also shows someone appearing to be a security guard body-slamming him to the floor shortly after the incident. Many people believe that the rapper is currently on the run from police over this incident, but this new footage shows that he did not get away without a scratch. It seemed like he just really wanted to get some combative energy off his chest.

Furthermore, it’s unclear why this whole situation occurred, what led up to it, or how its parties would explain it, especially since Lil Xan allegedly assaulted two other individuals on his way out. Police arrived shortly after he had already left, and it’s unclear if they made any progress in their pursuit at press time. It certainly wouldn’t be the Total Xanarchy artist’s only legal and criminal headache of the year, though, as he had to pay almost $30K after threatening a Tupac fan with a firearm.

Lil Xan Body-Slammed In New Footage

“That interview should’ve never even been aired ‘cause I wasn’t in a good place during the interview,” Lil Xan said of his previous comments on Tupac. “I was angry at that time. And all that came down to was a result of me just trying to get the interview done quicker. I was like, ‘Next question. Next question.’ And then they just give me questions and I’m messing around. I think Tupac is a legend. I don’t have to explain myself to anybody, but I grew up on a lot of old school West Coast, a lot of old school East Coast.”

“It started an interesting conversation in hip-hop,” Lil Xan added. “I did get a lot of backlash, of course, but as the years have gone by since that moment, it started what I think is a very good conversation in hip-hop. Why do these new cats in hip-hop that weren’t even born when someone like Tupac was around, why do they have to idolize them like the older people? They can appreciate the craft and the music. It’s good. It’s amazing, it’s better than good. But if you think about it like that, that’s some hating stuff right there.”

Aubrey O’Day Gloats At Diddy After Court Denies Him Bail

by

Aubrey O’Day is one of many celebrities who held no silence when it came to the Diddy scandal, which we’ve been in full swing of for over a year now. Moreover, his federal case for alleged sex trafficking continues to develop alongside the mountains of civil lawsuits against him. O’Day is one of the most vocal famous figures when it comes to the aversion to Sean Combs and his alleged behavior, so it’s no surprise that she revels in his downfall from time to time. For example, she recently took to Twitter to share her brief thoughts on a key legal development.

“take that take that,” she tweeted in reference to both Diddy’s iconic ad-lib and to the court denying him bail yet again. He and his legal team fought incessantly to present their case to the judge, arguing that the prosecution meddled with the trial and argued faulty narratives to keep him behind bars. But at the end of the day, the court maintained its position, although we wouldn’t exactly express shock at the idea of yet another bond attempt before trial begins next May. That’s the schedule at press time, but anything could happen.

Aubrey O’Day Reacts To Diddy Getting Bail Rejected

“With Diddy, I saw multiple real things, sides of him,” Aubrey O’Day recently claimed on a podcast, referring to his alleged physical grooming of her. “[…] Grooming is a process, they don’t just abuse you on day one. They make you feel like you get little bits of things that make you attracted and excited and then once they’ve got your attention, they let you know about yourself in different ways. It’s like the military. They break you down and build you back up into the soldier they need you to be for the country they need you to be fighting for.”

As for other updates on Diddy, an attorney for the State recently announced his resignation, which could delay the trial or impact the case in other significant ways. Without more details in the future and a more set timeline, though, it’s impossible to tell what this will really imply. All we know is that Puff will stay behind bars for the time being, and Aubrey O’Day feels vindicated.

Rubi Rose’s Mom Goes Viral For Her Butt

by

Rubi Rose often goes viral for her gorgeous looks, which often leave a whole lot of lustful fans in her comments sections. But perhaps she never thought that her mother would one day get the same treatment. Moreover, the rapper posted a picture of her mom on her Instagram Story recently, and a lot of fans expressed not just shock, but also desire when they saw her rear. “I see where she get it from,” one user wrote in the comments section under the IG post below, with another adding “great googly moogly.” Of course, these remarks are pretty juvenile and can sometimes border on disrespectful, but most people kept their interest or surprise at an appropriate level.

Elsewhere, though, Rubi Rose is dealing with some other, very different forms of online engagement, one of which was allegedly faking a relationship with Druski. “And for the record i never slept with that man, n***a paid for PR. Not the p***y,” she alleged via Twitter. “He is funny and nice tho! I only give it up if I’m in love, ion care how much money a n***a got. I’m rich asf lol.”

Rubi Rose’s Mom Goes Viral

Druski issued out a cheeky response to that Rubi Rose claim a couple of months after they “split,” and a few weeks after some controversial comments. “In the last interview I did, I spoke about my recent relationship,” he expressed on his Instagram Story after a radio program in which he suggested she was after his money. “And to be real I was trolling. She spent more money in the relationship than I did.” Their whole situation is still very much unclear, but it seems like we are no closer to an answer.

Meanwhile, Rubi Rose kept things pretty quiet since that Druski fallout, with this mom pic being one of her most viral moments in a while. Even Jack Harlow couldn’t help but comment on that breakup, so to see a more measured social media presence is always heartening after scandals like those. People all need a break sometimes before getting back to the regularly scheduled programs of folks obsessing over glutes online.

Wack 100 Eviscerates Drake Affiliate Top5 Amid Kendrick Lamar Feud

by

Top5 still has his eyes on Kendrick Lamar to defend his fellow Toronto rapper Drake, and this has caused him to face pushback from K.Dot’s corner. For example, Wack 100 and DJ Akademiks were recently on the phone during the latter’s livestream, and Wack had some pretty harsh words for Top once Ak brought his freedom from prison up. “That dude ain’t nobody, bro, he’s a b***h,” the California music multi-hyphenate told the media personality. “You know he’s a b***h, you know that dude couldn’t survive nothing.” This is the latest chapter in the street cred debates and cultural battles going on between Toronto and Los Angeles as a result of this year’s explosive rap feud.

What’s funny is that pretty much everyone still seems particularly obsessed with this beef and looking for their surefire checkmate move against the other side… Except for Kendrick Lamar and Drake themselves. Sure, they will most definitely reference it and respond to it here and there, but it seems like they both have more grand things they want people to pay attention to now.

Wack 100 Goes After Top5

It actually makes moments like this Wack 100 and Top5 situation all the more odd because the Kendrick Lamar and Drake beef was never really about Canada versus the West Coast. Maybe “Taylor Made Freestyle” turned it into that, but it’s a battle between two massive MCs that will always have a historical connection at the end of the day. Of course, that’s where things eventually landed thanks to social media and hip-hop kayfabe, but fortunately, it’s all been talk so far, and no one’s actually engaged with violence since the shooting near Drizzy’s home in Toronto. Hopefully things stay that way.

Meanwhile, a lot of folks have a lot to say about the Kendrick Lamar and Drake beef these days thanks to the former’s new album GNX and the latter’s recent comments about the wider 2024 battle during his stream with xQc. A lot of jokes ensued, some serious discussions and debacles followed, but overall, we’re glad to mostly get over the most exhaustingly confrontational fanbase war in rap… But not fully rid of it, of course.

Steve Lacy Gleefully Trolls Drake After Rapper Calls Him A “Fragile Opp”

by

Drake’s recent appearance on xQc’s stream – during which he seemed to respond to Kendrick Lamar, his new album GNX, and much more beef-related stuff – was a pretty fun one overall. It was just two guys hanging around and talking with fans, so when things turned more combative sometimes, it was hard for some folks to take them super seriously… Including Steve Lacy. The 6ix God called the singer and guitarist a “fragile opp” while giving praise to his hit “Bad Habit.” In response, The Internet’s Lacy took to Instagram to post various responses to the diss, including one meme that read, “who tryna be my… fragile opp.”

You may be asking why in the world Drake would have a problem with Steve Lacy, but there’s a very simple answer: he’s from Compton. He attended Kendrick Lamar’s “Pop Out” concert on Juneteenth this year, appeared in the “Not Like Us” music video, and has had a good working relationship with Kendrick in the public eye since 2017 with their DAMN. collab, “PRIDE.” As for K.Dot, he also seemed to respond to Drizzy’s words on xQC’s stream, and he was also quite amused.

Steve Lacy Laughs At Drake’s Jabs

As for what Steve Lacy and Kendrick Lamar could get up to in the future, the former actually teased a collab for his upcoming album. “I’m moved by what’s weird,” Lacy told Fantastic Man about what are the types of artists that he wants to collaborate with. “It’s almost like I hear them, and I think, I need to call this person. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t want a Kendrick verse. […] I don’t feel tough,” he said of being at “The Pop Out.” “We were at the run-through, and I was, like, ‘How am I here?’ But I was so honored.. I thought I would never be in the conversation. It was cool.”

We will see in due time whether or not Drake, Kendrick Lamar, or Steve Lacy will continue to address this battle or if they will move past it eventually. We hope that’s the case, because so much beef can’t be good for your health.

Bambi Flaunts A Promise Ring From Her New Man After Lil Scrappy’s Mean Comments About Her

by

Bambi is celebrating her new relationship, and her man seems like he’s also in it for the long run. Moreover, they recently shared a video of him giving her a promise ring, which was a very wholesome moment and one that sparked a lot of romantic debate in the comments section of the Instagram post below. However, it was also a moment of catharsis and clapping back for the Love & Hip Hop alum, or at least, that’s what she could have seen it as. If you didn’t hear, her ex husband Lil Scrappy recently said that he doesn’t even like her.

“I just do not like her. That’s the difference,” Lil Scrappy said of Bambi on social media, clarifying that he wouldn’t go as far as to “hate” her since his dislike is not that deep. “Hate is a strong word, strong word. I just don’t even have the energy for that s**t anymore. It’s about getting money and taking care of them kids, man. I don’t even look that way. I just keep moving, get my money. Do what I’ve been trying to do for the longest, like, I’m doing it.”

Bambi Rocks A New Promise Ring After Lil Scrappy’s Shade

But this is all pretty ironic because, for the most part, Bambi doesn’t really stoop to Lil Scrappy’s level when talking about their relationship. For example, when he announced he’s expecting another child with another woman, she seemed to respond with the announcement of her new children’s book. “A New Baby For Us” is about a group of siblings learning about how one of their parents will bring them one more sibling. Sounds kind of familiar, doesn’t it?

Regardless, as Lil Scrappy celebrates his new phase of life, Bambi is busy celebrating hers with a new man. We wonder how else their paths could overlap, as their coparenting relationship definitely faced some ups and downs in the two years or so since their split. Hopefully they can navigate these new eras respectfully and amicably, and without putting each other down too much. You don’t want to cause more drama, especially when you have kids to take care of and other potential partners to worry about.

Cardi B Goes Full Mom Mode By Threatening To Destroy Her Kids’ iPads Amid Offset Split

by

Cardi B might be going through a nasty split with Offset, but they still seem committed to coparenting their three kids together. Six-year-old daughter Kulture and three-year-old son Wave are almost done with their school year, and Cardi has to go to some parent-teacher conferences. On Thursday (November 21), she took to her Instagram Story to post about how she wants to keep her kids in line before these meetings, presumably to also set a good example for her and ‘Set’s two-month-old baby girl. “I better hear some good s**t or else,” the Bronx femcee warned about Kulture and Wave in school.

“iPads will be broken, phones will be thrown in the garbage, TVs will be disconnected, cables will be turned off. I am not playing. I am that type of mom,” Cardi B remarked. However, she clarified that she was just playing around, even if she really does care a lot about how her kids perform and behave at school. The 32-year-old just wanted to hear good news from their teachers. And she’s got to make sure that her little baby girl learns that from the jump, too…

Sadly, other recent Cardi B updates are more disappointing, such as a limbo-continuing update on her highly anticipated sophomore album. “I’ve been feeling so emotional lately,” she told her Instagram Live viewers. “Because I know next year is going to be my f***ing year. This has been the most weirdest year I have ever experienced. I don’t know what the f**k happened this year, I can’t even tell you. […] [I] fell in love.

“Then fell out of love, then got a divorce,” Cardi B continued. “[…] I don’t know what the f**k is going on. I’m going through a very different transition in my f***ing life and life is moving a little bit too fast. I don’t want to crash. I have to get my s**t together. Next year, my album will be out, my secret businesses will be out. I can’t tell you what I’m working on. Hopefully next year I get me a little boyfriend. I’m h*e-less right now. I gotta get my s**t together.”

Keke Palmer Sends Shannon Sharpe Into Hysteria By Bringing Up Sex Tape Mishap

by

Keke Palmer was Shannon Sharpe’s most recent guest on his Club Shay Shay podcast, hopping on the platform in an interview published Wednesday (November 20). Of course, they talked about their careers and their experiences a lot, as she mentioned a film she worked on in which she played a younger female character involved with an older man. “You like them older, huh?” Sharpe joked, which led to cackles from them both before Keke hit him with the ultimate clap-back: “That’s what Michelle said!” The interviewer and his colleagues started going ballistic, and she seemed quite proud of herself for the quip.

For those unaware, Keke Palmer referred to Shannon Sharpe’s viral and now infamous sex tape scandal that happened on Instagram Live. There are a few different possible interpretations of this, but basically, he accidentally went Live on the social media platform while he was having intimate relations with a woman he referred to as Michelle. They didn’t actually show up on the screen, but you could hear them in the livestream. Some thought it was fake, others thought he was being honest, but pretty much everyone found the Internet discussion that it provoked at least a little funny.

Elsewhere during her interview with Shannon Sharpe, Keke Palmer also discussed how hard her family had to work for her success and even providing for them at an early age. It was a pretty heartening discussion, especially considering how things look right now. During a recent People interview, she spoke on her relationship with Darius Jackson and how things got out of control with social media gossip and allegations in court. Fortunately, they seem like they’re at least in a better place right now, especially regarding their son.

You can check out the full Keke Palmer interview on Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay YouTube channel. He might have a lot more content on the way very soon, including a seemingly teased part two to his explosive Katt Williams interview. That conversation kicked 2024 off with a bang, and we wonder if a sequel would cause even more hysteria or never live up to the original. Either way, we’re sure folks would tune in.
