Sexyy Red Hosts Improvised Show After She Couldn’t Enter High School Due To Weed Smell

Sexyy Red has to deal with a lot of preconceptions and biases as not just a female rapper, but as a rapper in general, even when she’s trying to do right by the kids. Moreover, on Wednesday (April 3), she took to her Instagram Story to express her grievances with a high school in her hometown of St. Louis, Missouri that she was meant to visit, but was denied entry to because she smelled like marijuana. The “Get It Sexyy” MC was still on school property, though, and eventually greeted students from atop her vehicle. Not only that, but she treated them to an impromptu performance of the aforementioned track, and you can see them scream along to the lyrics in a clip below.

“Look, so this school, I came up here, got cute, tried to talk to the kids, give them the word of the day and they’re going to put me off tell me I smell like weed,” Sexyy Red expressed on the social media platform. “B***h, you’re nobody, they ain’t come to see you, Otis! B***h, you heard who they’re screaming for,” she remarked against those who denied her visit.

Sexyy Red Speaks On High School Turning Her Away Due To Smelling Like Weed

Despite this setback and this reaction, folks will apparently have many more reasons to be excited for Sexyy Red in the near future. For example, Nicki Minaj recently teased that she might invite her on for a remix of her Pink Friday 2 cut, “FTCU.” That would certainly give the Barbz another great moment to praise, and would further cement the 25-year-old as one of the most in-demand hitmakers today. However, these are all just ideas and teases at the moment, so we’ll have to wait and see whether they end up panning out.

Meanwhile, there’s a certain theory going around that has her feeling unbothered, but that its proponent is standing firmly behind. Joe Budden thinks that Drake is being paid to promote the Hood Hottest Princess so heavily, something that she dismissed quickly. Whether it’s The Boy shouting her out or high school students going wild, it’s clear that she’ll find her deserved stardom no matter who’s cosigning her.

Metro Boomin Announces Show At The Pyramids After Twitter Hack Drama

Metro Boomin is going to Egypt. The super producer confirmed that he will be traveling to the city of Giza to perform at the Kundalini Grand Pyramids on April 30th. He unveiled the poster for the event on his Twitter, which was promptly reposted by the Kundalini Grand Pyramids and Live Nation social media accounts. The timing makes sense, given that Metro just released a collab album with Future, WE DON’T TRUST YOU.

Metro will join a short list of rapper/producers who have performed at the pyramids. Russ and the Black Eyed Peas have both performed at the Pyramids of Giza in the last decade, and Travis Scott was going to unveil his latest album, EUPHORIA, at the same location (which didn’t happen). Metro Boomin will be the first mainstream hip-hop artist to venture to Kundalini Grand Pyramids, however. It will also shift the focus back to Metro’s music after his beef with Drake led to an alleged social media hack. Hence the expression “in other words” at the beginning of the tweet.

Metro Boomin Will Perform In Giza For 1 Night

Metro produced the track “Like That”, in which Kendrick Lamar took shots at Drake. The producer’s phone was spammed with phone calls from Drake’s native Toronto, and his iCloud account was hacked. He claimed that the hacker tried to purchase $23K in Balenziaga merchandise and post inflammatory tweets under his name. One of these tweets took subliminal shots at longtime friend 21 Savage, which Metro dismissed outright. “Y’all shoulda known something was up then,” he wrote. “But negativity and bad news travels faster and further than anything else.”

Metro’s socials are under control, even if some fans are skeptical about the hack and the story the producer is selling. Regardless of what really went down, Metro is currently on a commercial high. The aforementioned “Like That” went to number one on the Billboard Hot 100, and WE DON’T LIKE YOU topped the Billboard 200. The producer has achieved this feat four times to date, and based on his decision to put on a solo show in Giza, we’d say the W’s are going to keep on coming.

Lil Wayne Called Out For Using Teleprompter To Remember Lyrics During Drake Show, Fans Rush To His Defense

Lil Wayne is dealing with backlash on social media for relying on a teleprompter to remember his lyrics during his performance with Drake on the It’s All A Blur – Big As The What? tour. In a viral clip from the show, one fan on Twitter asked if anyone had ever seen something similar. Many of his fans brought up the massive catalog Wayne has put out over the years as an excuse.

“Lil Wayne has admitted that he’s dropped so many verses that he can’t remember everything he’s spit before,” one fan wrote back. Another added: “Lil Wayne also said in an interview he doesn’t write his own lyrics down. He goes in the studio and freestyles everything.” The original poster clarified that they meant no disrespect. “Also I love Lil Wayne, I’m one of the lucky ones who got to grow up and see him in his prime. What a time it was to be alive for real,” they wrote.

Drake welcomed Wayne to the stage at his show in Florida over the weekend. He also made headlines for getting annoyed with fans for not being excited enough about the guest appearance. “Nah, because look, these my favorite moments in life right now,” he said as he made his way to the stage. “Hey Florida, from the top of the mountain, emerges the motherf*cking greatest of all time. If y’all don’t make some f*cking noise, for my brother Lil Wayne in here tonight.”

Drake Annoyed With Fans For Lack Of Enthusiasm For Lil Wayne At Latest Concert

Drake called out his fans in attendance at his concert at Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise, FL, over the weekend, for not being excited enough about Lil Wayne’s appearance during the show. As Wayne took over the stage to lackluster noise from the audience, Drake ran out on stage to complain and label him the greatest of all time.

“Nah, because look, these my favorite moments in life right now,” he said as he made his way to the stage. “Hey Florida, from the top of the mountain, emerges the motherf*cking greatest of all time. If y’all don’t make some f*cking noise, for my brother Lil Wayne in here tonight.”

The awkward incident comes after Kendrick Lamar dissed Drake and J. Cole on the viral track, “Like That,” from Metro Boomin and Future’s new album, We Don’t Trust You. “F*ck sneak dissin’, first person shooter, I hope they came with three switches,” he raps in his verse. “Think I won’t drop the location? I still got PTSD/ Motherf*ck the big three, n***a, it’s just big me/ N***a, bum, what? I’m really like that/ And your best work is a light pack.” Cole is also performing with Drake on the It’s All a Blur – Big As The What? tour.

Nicki Minaj Angers Fans After Last-Minute Concert Cancelation

Nicki Minaj fans are furious after the rapper canceled her concert in New Orleans on Monday night due to illness. While the excuse is fair, many attendees were displeased they only received a few hours notice. The Smoothie King Center’s official Instagram page made the announcement around 5:00 PM on the night of the concert.

“Due to doctor’s orders, Nicki Minaj must reschedule her NOLA show tonight,” the statement reads. “As Nicki is still sick, our team does not want to run the risk of getting others sick, and Nicki would not be able to give NOLA the show they deserve. We are working diligently to find a new date, so please hold onto your tickets, and we will inform you all soon.”

SZA Performs Electric Set At Lollapalooza

SZA was met by an electric audience in Argentina as she headlined Lollapalooza. Alongside performing all of her hits, SZA also shocked the audience by conversing with them in Spanish on several occasions. “Argentina GAAAAVEEE !! Thank you so much for your energy 🥹🇦🇷🫶🏾 te ammoo !!! Chile mañanaaaa!” SZA wrote on social media after her appearance.

It’s been a busy year for SZA already. Elsewhere, SZA beat out a crowded field to take home “Best International Artist” at the BRIT Awards. The St. Louis singer took home the award ahead of the likes of Miley Cyrus, Olivia Rodrigo, and Taylor Swift. In fact it, was a quiet night overall for Swift. Cyrus took home “International Song of the Year” for “Flowers”. However, it should be noted that Swift did not have a nomination in this category. Previously, Swift had topped SZA for “Album of the Year” at the Grammys. Furthermore, speaking of the Grammys, alongside Phoebe Bridgers, she won the 2024 Grammy for best pop dup/group performance for their track “Ghost in the Machine”. The pair most notably won the award over Swift, who was nominated for her track “Karma”, which featured Ice Spice.

Elsewhere, SZA has received yet more love for her recent Sesame Street appearance, with longtime resident Cookie Monster eagerly inviting the singer to return. “Me loved having you on our Street, @SZA! Let me know which type of cookies are your favorite for next time. 🍪,” Cookie Monster’s official Twitter account wrote. SZA has yet to provide CM with her preferred cookie. However, Sesame Street recently re-earned the ire of several Republican lawmakers. The GOP, which has long hated the publicly funded show, took issue with the show promoting a “stand up to racism” campaign. In the past, Republican lawmakers have gone as far as to try and defund PBS to prevent the continued production of Sesame Street.

Appearing on the long-running PBS has long been a dream of the singer’s. After appearing on the show, she shared an old Instagram Live clip of her asking her fans how to land an appearance on the show. Furthermore, SZA is not the first musician that Cookie Monster has shown love to. Last year, Lizzo appeared on the show and performed a mini-concert on a cookie flute.

Megan Thee Stallion’s Ex-Friend, Kelsey Nicole, Attends Nicki Minaj Concert

Kelsey Nicole was in attendance at Nicki Minaj’s concert in Las Vegas on Friday night amid the rapper’s feud with her former best friend, Megan Thee Stallion. In a video Nicole posted on social media, she sings along to Minaj’s “Moment 4 Life” with the caption: “You just had to be there.”

When Live Bitez shared the clip on Instagram, users were quick to troll Nicole. “It’s giving clout chaser,” one wrote. Another joked: “You did that interview and still talked to Nicki and your still in the same place [laughing emojis] why you didn’t get back stage passes from her.”

Her appearance at the show comes after opening up about her relationship with Megan during an interview on The Danza Project, last Sunday. “It took a lot for me to come and do this,” she said. “Part of that is, I wanted to be sure when I did speak that I wasn’t speaking from a place of anger. I’m able to articulate myself well enough and not allow the drama to overshadow how I truly feel. I think that’s very important. I didn’t want to take an interview or sit down with anybody until I was past that part.” Nicole added that she’s since decided to “open up more,” and “let people into my life a little bit and maybe this will help them understand me more. Maybe my story will help somebody else. And I think it’s also part of the healing process. Maybe this will help.” Check out her video from Nicki Minaj’s concert below.

50 Cent Won’t Stop Pressing Diddy: “We Don’t Want Too Much Love”

50 Cent went after Diddy while performing in Phoenix, Arizona on March 3 at Talking Stick Resort Amphitheatre. The concert was a rescheduled show from his Final Lap Tour. His joke about Diddy arose while 50 was trolling the audience for their reaction to him bailing on his last show in the city when it was 115 degrees.

“I don’t know how y’all live out this motherf*cker, it was 115 degrees the last time I got here. Some of y’all cussed me out,” he said. “Called me all kind of names online.” From there, he added: “I love you, why don’t you love me back? Where is the love?! Hold on, hold on. We don’t want too much love. You know what happened to Brother Love. Let’s keep it down, not too much love.”

Kodak Black & Jackboy‘s Feud Leads To Fatal Shooting, Police Claim

Kodak Black and Jackboy‘s beef led to a fatal shooting on January 16, 2023, according to the Seminole County Sheriff’s Office. Authorities say the incident occurred outside of a Jackboy concert at The Barn in Sanford, Florida, Neither artist was personally involved. Seminole County Sheriff Dennis Lemma explained at a news conference that the shooters intended to target Jackboy’s crew, but wound up hitting another van. 31-year-old Princess Tolliver died on the scene.

“Our detectives have determined that none of the victims were the intended target that night,” Lemma announced. “We found that the likely motive for the incident stemmed from a very public, high-profile dispute playing out on social media and in the court system involving Jackboy and a known associate of the shooters, another rap artist Bill Kapri, known by the stage name Kodak Black.”

“It was clear [the suspects] had been watching this very public debate between Kodak Black and Jackboy … and probably took this as an opportunity to make a name for themselves,” he said at the same conference. After the shooting, the victim’s father, Edward, told WESH: “Now my daughter is dead because of this stupid gun activity and the racketeering and selling of drugs. She was just having a good time and now she’s dead.”

Police arrested 13 people in connection with the shooting. All of the victims are allegedly affiliated with the OTF gang. They say the investigation took over a year to conduct and involved 120 search warrants. The charges for the suspects include murder, attempted murder, racketeering, and car theft. As for Kodak Black and Jackboy, the two former friends began feuding in June 2021. In the years since, both artists have dissed each other publically on several occasions.
