Kanye West failed to take the White House in 2020, but somebody didn’t fail to take YE for some of his campaign funds. According to TMZ, Ye’s campaign committee states a fraud scheme swindled the campaign out of needed funds and instead paid someone’s credit card bill.

Kanye 2020 reported to the Federal Election Commission someone that who was not a part of the committee stole nearly $4,000 to pay off their personal credit card bills.

An investigation revealed the funds were stolen over three separate transactions between December and February. The campaign was unable to recover the funds from the First Bank of Wyoming.

The FEC and Kanye 2020 are working to find out who swiped the funds in order to make an arrest.

Beto ORourke Greg Abbot Gun Control confrontation school shooting

Texas Democratic gubernatorial candidate Beto O’Rourke heard enough and interrupted a press conference on Wednesday afternoon that was led by state governor Greg Abbott.

The press conference was providing more details on the events of the Robb Elementary school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, and what led gunman Salvador Ramos to commit the act. Abbott was flanked by Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick and Uvalde’s Mayor Don McLaughlin.

O’Rourke could be seen approaching the men and speaking his mind. “You are doing nothing,” O’Rourke said. “This is on you until you choose to do something.”

O’Rourke was escorted out the building by security but McLaughlin would scream at O’Rourke that he was a “sick son of a bitch.” Following O’Rourke’s exit, Abbott, asked for personal agendas to be placed aside to provide “healing and hope” to those directly impacted by the shooting.

Abbott would also blame “mental health” for the shooting and deflected the attack to violence in Chicago, Los Angeles, and New York. He would also add, “It could have been worse.” You can see the moments from the explosive scene below.

Jack Harlow made headlines and the timeline buzz last week when he revealed to the Ebro in the Morning crew that he had no idea that Brandy and Ray J were siblings.

Replying to the Brandy Legion Twitter page about the viral video, Brandy joked about grabbing his own music and murking him on it. “I will murk this dude in rap at 43 on his own beats and then sing [h]is ass to sleep.”

Brandy would double back and say it was “a little fun” and “all love.” But she was serious about jackin Jack for his beat. Yesterday, Brandy hopped on the Louisville rapper’s No. 1 hit “First Class” for her own rendition. Brandy skates over the “Glamorous”-sampled beat using Jack’s name for a cunning set of bars.

“Over 20 years and I’m still a topic
A bitch is worth a million and I’m feeling philanthropic
Popular but now I’m poppin’ shit for those out of pocket”

– Brandy

The NFL partners with JAY-Z’s Roc Nation to produce the halftime show.

“After 10 years of iconic Pepsi Super Bowl Halftime Show performances, we have decided it’s time to pass the mic,” Pepsi wrote on Twitter. “Thank you to the amazing artists and fans who helped us create some incredible moments along the way.”

Pepsi will continue its sponsorship rights with the NFL, despite dropping the halftime show. The renewed agreement will provide Pepsi pouring rights at top events and keep Gatorade on the sidelines. According to CNBC, the previous deal between Pepsi and the NFL was $2 billion over ten years. The terms of the new agreement were undisclosed.

The rights for the halftime show are believed to be net the NFL $50 million.

Charleston White, the outspoken critic of gangs and gangsta rappers, was approached and confronted by Chicago drill rapper 600 Breezy because of White’s comments about the late Chicago rapper King Von , who White inexplicably called a “demon”.

The video below shows Breezy checking the 52-year-old, while White holds steadfast to his principle that he cannot support anything that he views as “anti-Black”. At one point, Breezy calls the opinionated critic a liar, to which he surprisingly agreed, drawing laughter from those who were present. He went on to say that when he was gang affiliated, he would fight his opps instead of killing.

At the end of the video, White contends that he’s against anything that’s hurting Black people, including gangs, rap music, and white people.

After the video below was released, White took to social media, saying he was ready to called the police on 600 Breezy for threatening him.
