Fans were concerned earlier today (June 2) after tweets from Allie Minati, the mother of Roddy Ricch’s child, went viral. The Los Angeles rapper isn’t one to make waves on social media and Allie has kept a low profile ever since she gave birth to their son back in April 2020. The status of their relationship isn’t something that they boast about in the media, so it came as a surprise when troublesome tweets were sent out from Allie’s Twitter account.

Before locking down her page and making her Twitter private, OnSite was able to grab screenshots. “If you had any relations with @RoddyRicch pls go get checked ladies,” the tweet read. “I know it’s plenty of y’all out there, be safe cause he not telling ppl what he got… @RoddyRicch you might as well gon head n let everybody know.”

The reactions were swift, but Allie returned to state that she wasn’t behind the post. “I was hacked yall!” wrote Allie. “All the blogs hitting me so thirsty for some fake news lol I don’t got it for y’all.” Still, there were people who responded to her updated post by saying they don’t believe her, while others jumped in to defend both Roddy and Allie against naysayers because they’re so unprobematic.

He’s been widely criticized for his dealings involving Taylor Sift’s catalog, but Scooter Braun isn’t making headlines over his rift with the popstar. The mega-manager is known for representing some of the top-selling artists in the music industry including Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande, and Demi Lovato, but he was back in the media on Wednesday (June 2) after news surfaced that the music executive has been hit with a $50 million lawsuit.

According to the New York Post, a former Goldman Sachs partner named Peter Comisar is taking Braun to court. He alleges that he left his job at Guggenheim Securities after Braun reportedly promised “him a role at the top of a new boutique investment firm that he claimed would be backed by media titans like Apple’s Jimmy Iovine, Hollywood magnate David Geffen as well as the billionaire Soros family.” However, things didn’t work out the way Comisar planned.

Braun reportedly lured Comisar into the business throughout 2016 and 2017, and Comisar was said to have agreed to a $3 million per year salary. Braun allegedly name-dropped Kanye West and Justin Bieber during their conversations, and according to Comsiar, Braun even went as far to say he could get David Geffen, who he reportedly called his “godfather,” along with others like Jimmy Iovine and Haim Saban to invest hundreds of millions of dollars.

“Braun had to explain to Comisar, tail between his legs, how he had asked David Geffen, his supposed Godfather, to invest in Scope [Capital Partners], only to be told by Geffen that he did not view Braun as someone with whom Geffen would invest.” Iovine and Saban were said to have also given Braun “the same brush-off” along with “the Reuben Soros and Mittal families.”

“The truth was that Braun’s relations valued him as someone to socialize with, but to whom they could never and trust their millions,” the lawsuit reportedly states. “When it came to fundraising, Braun turned out to be a sheep in wolves clothing.” The New York Post reports that Braun has not commented on the allegations or the lawsuit.

After over a year (plus) of staying inside, Netflix has decided to release a current list of their most-watched original films of all time. This list is a great way to see what the average household enjoys, and Netflix is notoriously secretive about their numbers. Most of the films currently have well over 70 million views, except for Zack Synder’s Army of the Dead (2021), its view count is projected since the film has only been out for three weeks.

Besides Synder’s new film, new additions to the most-viewed list include Gina Prince-Bythewood’s The Old Guard (2020) starring Charlize Theron, Harry Bradbeer’s Enola Holmes (2020) starring Millie Bobby Brown and Henry Cavill, Henry Joost, and Ariel Schulman’s Project Power (2020) starring Jamie Foxx and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and finally, George Clooney’s The Midnight Sky (2020) where hestars alongside Felicity Jones. 

Meanwhile, the top 5 on the list are essentially a copy-paste of last year’s list, including the view counts, with the exception of Kyle Newacheck’s Murder Mystery starring Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston. In the past year, the film has gained 10 million more views since last year, maintaining their 5th place in this year’s list.

As one of the leading voices coming out of the Rap scene currently, all eyes are keenly squared on Lil Durk. The Chicago rapper continues to blaze through the charts with each release, and this week, after a slight delay, The Voice of the Heroes will arrive. The joint project is an effort in partnership with Durk and Lil Baby, and it has been one of the most anticipated projects of the year, to date.

Aside from his musical ventures, Durk’s personal life always captures attention. He publicly showers his leading lady India Royale with affection and repeatedly makes it clear that they’re locked in for life. However, Durk shared a few thoughts on his Instagram Story where he said he’ll be pulling back from posting as often.

“Keeping the world out my personal life,” wrote the rapper. “Not posting to much saying to much Nomo.” He suggested that this had a lot to do with his children. “Definitely my kids… just know they good and took care of thanks [blue heart emoji].”

While many artists do capitalize off of sharing updates about their children, some are refraining from giving the world too much access, including Summer Walker. The singer has been criticized for her posts, and recently, the public threatened to call Child Protective Services on her for no reason at all.

Check out Durk’s post below.

When it comes to holding down NBA YoungBoy, the mothers of his children know how to represent for the incarcerated rapper. Months ago, YoungBoy was taken into custody following a brief foot pursuit in Los Angeles. We’ve received updates from YoungBoy courtesy of his loved ones who have shared messages he’s sent to them, and it looks as if he’s doing the best with his situation, all things considered.

In his last message, the rapper expressed love for pregnant girlfriend Jazlyn Mychelle, and recently, she revealed that he’d even purchased a new puppy for her. Meanwhile, Jania Meshell, YoungBoy’s ex-girlfriend and mother to their son, was captured having some fun at a party—that is until the DJ put on a track by King Von.

We’ve previously reported on the lengthy history between YoungBoy and Von, Durk, and Pooh Shiesty, and the jailed rapper’s exes make sure not to give any of the three latter artists attention even when they’re out at clubs. Months ago, Yaya Mayweather, daughter of Floyd Mayweather and the mother of YoungBoy’s son born in January, was previously captured telling a DJ to turn off “Back in Blood,” and a video recently surfaced showing Jania dancing before Von’s voice is heard over the speakers.

Later, Von’s loved ones took to Instagram to call her out, including the late rapper’s sister, Kayla B. “You hoes not gone keep playing with my brother,” she wrote. “I ain’t say sh*t the first time but stop playing acting like you wasn’t getting F*CKED.” Check out all of the posts below.

After his remarks about Lori Harvey became a trending topic for weeks, Boosie Badazz is clarifying his statements. Back in February, Boosie sat down for yet another interview with VladTV where he discussed Lori Harvey’s dating history. He made a few comments that rubbed people the wrong way when speaking about Harvey’s “body count,” adding that she shouldn’t be “goals” for women, and it’s the men who deserve credit for “running through a woman like [that].”

In a more recent interview, Boosie wanted to explain his previous thoughts. “Lotta women is mad at me but…” said Boosie. “I was just sayin’ I don’t give a damn what she does, that’s her body. I was sayin’ she a beautiful woman, that’s what I was sayin’.”

“But I was sayin’ as far as young girls, I feel that that’s not goals… And probably ’cause I was raised that way. If a girl did that in my neighborhood, where I’m from, she would be labeled as something. But you know, today is a different thing,” he continued. “It’s a different world now.”

“It’s just so crazy because the world, they say that Lori Harvey’s are the goal but the Reginae [Carters] and the Jayda [Cheaves], they stupid. They the ones who stick around with a man for years. They the idiots. It ain’t used to be like that. It used to be no pain no gain.”

It’s different. It’s a different world.” Check out Boosie explaining himself below and let us know if you agree with him.
