Blueface Opens A Soul Food Restaurant

From rapping to reality show production to restaurant opening. What can’t Blueface do? With the launch of his new restaurant Blue’s Fish & Soul, it looks as if the rapper seeks to extend his credentials even further.

On Tuesday, June 15th, Blueface opened his soul food restaurant in Santa Clarita, California. He posted a guided tour of the establishment on his IG page to give viewers a peek at the planned menu — featuring food cooked up by his mother. In the clip, he says “I am happy to let y’all know that I am the new proud owner of SVC Fish Market in the Santa Clarita Valley. It’s the only place where you can come and get some soul food in this whole entire valley.”

The SVC Fish Market is just one of Blueface’s many endeavors. Earlier this year, the “Thotiana” rapper created his own spinoff of Oxygen’s The Bad Girls Club titled Blue Girls Club, which was in no way affiliated with the original Oxygen productions. He released this version through his OnlyFans page. 

In other related news, he was previously spotted getting cozy with Coi Leray at Herald’s Chicken in Hollywood. Rumors surrounding the potential romance have fizzled out. Since then, Leray has been dating someone else, who Blueface denies taking subliminal shots at on Twitter.

Will you eat at Blueface’s new restaurant? Sound off in the comments below.

Spanish Man Sentenced For Murdering & Eating His Mother

A Spanish man by the name of Alberto Sánchez Gómez received sentencing Wednesday for killing his mother and subsequently eating her corpse in 2019. According to BBC, Gómez was first arrested in February of 2019 after police discovered his mother’s body parts spread throughout her apartment in Madrid.

Gómez will be serving 15 years in prison for his mother’s murder, and five additional months on top for the desecration of her corpse. He allegedly cut his mother, Maria Soledad Gómez, into a thousand pieces and ate the body parts while feeding some to his pet dog. Along with his sentenced prison time, Gómez was ordered to pay €60,000 – about $72,000 in USD – to his brother for the crime inflicted on their family. 

Police investigated the mother’s home in February 2019 in eastern Madrid after concerns about her welfare were raised by a friend of the family. Maria was in her 60s at the time of her death, and BBC reported that Alberto strangled her during a dispute according to a statement made during the trial. Over the following two weeks after the dispute, Alberto consumed some of his mother’s body parts – some of which were found in plastic containers – and attempting to hide other parts before eventually being discovered and arrested by Spanish police.

Media outlets in Spain alleged that Alberto was known to the police because of prior violence against his mother, and a restraining order was breached at the time of his arrest. The court ultimately rejected his arguments that he had experienced a psychotic episode at the time of his mother’s killing, and sentenced him to a 15-year term.

Wendy Williams Speaks On Jay-Z & Foxy Brown Rumors: “She Hit It Before Beyoncé”

For decades, there have been rumors about Jay-Z and Foxy Brown. The New York rappers collaborated way back when in the 1990s and there was gossip that they crossed the line from friendship to lovers, and on the most recent episode of her talk show, Wendy Williams re-fueled the fire. We recently reported that Foxy Brown had partnered with Kim Osorio to pen an autobiography due out sometime this year and 

“I remember, right, when Foxy and Jay-Z had ‘I’ll Be,'” Williams said of the rappers’ 1996 classic.

“Jay-Z was standing in the corner, ringing his hands talkin’a bout, ‘Okay, what do I do next?’ All that. This was allegedly a romantical thing. It’s alright…I’ll say ‘alleged,’ you know we know. Yeah, she hit it before Beyoncé. Allegedly!”

Back in 2019, Dame Dash was questioned by Nick Cannon about Jay’s alleged relationship with Foxy when she was underage. Dame seemed to dodge the question. “I wasn’t paying attention to Foxy Brown … I didn’t sign Foxy Brown,” Dash said at the time.  “It sounds like you have a question for Jay. Ask him… You keep asking me questions y’all want to ask him ’cause he ain’t here. Ask him, I ain’t got sh*t to do with that and I don’t even know nothing about that.”

“Gorilla Glue Girl” Tessica Brown Launches Haircare Line

Tessica Brown took to social media back in February to share her testimonial against using the adhesive Gorilla Glue for one’s hair. Social media erupted with loud reactions of disbelief including a tweet from Chance the Rapper.

‘Gorilla Glue Girl’ sustained her newfound social media clout by posting frequent updates on the status of her hair for her 675,000 Instagram followers. After her health was back intact just ten days after her initial video, Tessica turned her attention to making her fifteen minutes of fame last.

In March, Tessica announced she was expecting a baby and shared her struggles with a pregnancy condition throughout the recent months. Nevertheless, Tessica seems to remain in high spirits, posting dancing TikToks and storytimes to generate exposure for her page.

The big question around the 40-year-old’s decision to use a construction product in place of hairspray was “Why?” —  and now she has provided a possible answer.

The ‘Forever Hair’ brand  — a name play on her former semi-permanent hairdo — launched on Wednesday. Tessica claims her products were perfect for healing her head damaged from Gorilla Glue’s harmful ingredients. On her Instagram story, she shows off her newly-grown-in hair for the first time on her page, crediting all the growth to ‘Forever Hair’ products. The first product lineup includes a hair growth oil, edge control, and the product that she ironically needed herself, hairspray. 

The products are available for sale here.

Rizzoo Rizzoo & Stunna 4 Vegas Team Up On “Learn From Boosie”

Boosie Badazz has lived one hell of a life for someone who’s only 38 years old. He beat a murder charge, was sentenced to prison during the height of his career, got shot, and continues to keep a smile on his face and the faces of his fans across the world, all while remaining as solid as possible. 

Today, Rizzoo Rizzoo and Stunna 4 Vegas share a brand new single celebrating the lessons they’ve learned from Boosie over the years. “Learn From Boosie” is an ominous banger that has the two rappers reflecting on growing up in poverty, overcoming the odds, and staying true to the code. “I learned from Boosie we don’t talk ’bout it ’til it’s done/ I stacked up that bread for all them nights when it was crumbs,” Rizzoo raps on the record. Stunna 4 Vegas comes through with his typical high energy, though he decreases his levels of intensity compared to usual.

Peep the record below.

Quotable Lyrics
Gettin’ money always been my motive
AMG, go fast in the motor
Don’t fuck with a slime, cut the head off a cobra
Don’t tell me you love me then cross me over
Paranoid, sleepin’ with a pistol on the sofa
