One of the most legendary sports teams in the history of the world is the Los Angeles Lakers. While they started out in Minnesota, the Lakers eventually found their way to Los Angeles and immediately became one of the greatest franchises ever. They are tied with the Boston Celtics for most NBA championships all time and they have a ton of incredible dynasties and eras to choose from.
With this in mind, it should be absolutely no surprise that the team is getting its very own 9-part docuseries on Hulu. This new series is being co-signed by Jeanie Buss, and the whole premise will take place following her father’s purchase of the team in 1979.

Per Press Release:
“The series details the past four decades of the Lakers, and contains colorful and emotional new interviews from over 35 people within the organization, including the Buss family, legendary coaches Pat Riley and Phil Jackson, and NBA Hall of Famers Magic Johnson, Shaquille O’Neal and team captain Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, among numerous other current and former players. Also featured are interviews with a range of high-profile fans and a treasure trove of archival footage featuring never-before-seen interviews with the Lakers late owner, Jerry Buss.”
Post-1979 is when the Lakers truly had all of their success so it shouldn’t come as a surprise that the documentary will mostly focus on that time period. In this docuseries, we will get to see the Kareem, Magic, Shaq, Kobe, and LeBron eras, which will certainly make for a truly incredible spectacle.
At this time, there is no release date for the docuseries although it should be coming to Hulu in 2022.
Celebrity jeweler Johnny Dang is being called out by Yaya Mayweather and hundreds of others who believe he used a racial slur in one of his recent videos with rapper Lil Pump. In the video, Dang is being accused of using the n-word.
“This is my boy here, he’s so rich man, he got–,” said the jeweler in the video, but many have misheard the Houston-based jeweler. Yaya Mayweather is supposedly under the impression that he said, “He’s so rich, my n***a.”
“Are we just going to skip the fact he said the N word,” asked Yaya when she reposted the video to her story on Instagram. Johnny Dang’s comments are filled with people asking about the alleged slip-up, despite the fact that he doesn’t appear to have actually used the word. Others are saying that Lil Pump should also be held accountable for his use of the word. Pump is of Colombian descent. Johnny Dang was born in Vietnam.
Do you think that the jeweler used a racial slur in the video or are people hearing him incorrectly? Watch it below and let us know.
In other news involving Lil Pump, the rapper recently shared that one of his cars was vandalized at his home, posting a video of the damages and threatening the vandals. “I’m gonna be here for the next three-four days. Come back to my house so I can blow your f*cking head off,” he said. Read more about that here.
In his revealing Applying Pressure: The Off-Season documentary, J. Cole breaks down the rationale behind his new album’s title, details its creation, and pursuing his basketball dreams.
From the opening scenes, in which Cole converses with 21 Savage, recalling the moment he decided to take rap seriously, the documentary provides insights into Cole’s work philosophy, such as his belief that “comfort is the enemy,” and his reactions to becoming a father.
The documentary precedes Cole’s upcoming album The Off-Season, which is due to drop this Friday after Cole took 2020 off to try to make a pro basketball roster. This week, he’ll also accomplish that dream; earlier today, famed reporter Shams Charania revealed that Cole had signed a contract for three to six games with the Rwanda Patriots of the Basketball Africa League, the joint venture between the NBA and FIBA to create a premiere international league on the continent.
While Applying Pressure also features some of Cole’s basketball ambitions, the primary focus is on his new creative process. He talks about having writer’s block, comparing rapping to playing basketball, and putting in the work on being the best player he can be.

Cardi B is an example of the “pull yourself up by your bootstraps” facet of the American dream that many conservatives preach. Through hard work and dedication, Cardi went from side-hustling as a stripper to becoming one of the biggest celebrities of our time. But despite her self-made status, her sexually-liberated persona is apparently enough to piss people off.
From Fox News hosts to right-wing commentators, conservatives love attempting to use Cardi to push their agenda and so-called culture war, and responding to their critics has recently become the rapper’s part-time job. Regardless of countless attempts to disparage her, Cardi never lets her name be slandered without putting up a fight.
Though it was released nearly a year ago, Cardi and Megan Thee Stallion’s “WAP” continues to dominate conservative conversations about morality, femininity, and for some reason, Dr. Seuss. But Cardi’s lasting debate with right-wingers started well before the release of her infamously raunchy video. Here’s a timeline of conservatives’ many feuds with the rapper.
January 24, 2018 — Ben Shapiro drags “Bodak Yellow”
One of the first of many incidents of Cardi becoming the source of conservative media attention happened in early 2018 after her diamond-certified track “Bodak Yellow” took off. The song was actually released the year prior, but because many women used the song’s lyrics in protest posters at the Women’s March, the track was finally put on Ben Shapiro’s radar. He analyzed the lyrics line-by-line in a cringe-worthy video and attempted to use her own lyrics against her.
Biggest compliment I can pay Bodak Yellow is that the lyrics still smack even when read by Ben Shapiro pic.twitter.com/ejGckLzsNg
January 20, 2019 — Tomi Lahren sparks a Twitter fight with Cardi
Fox News contributor and conservative political pot-stirrer Tomi Lahren decided to spark a Twitter debate with Cardi after the rapper made anti-Trump comments. Tagging Cardi in a tweet, Lahren sarcastically quipped that the rapper was the latest “genius political mind” to endorse the Democrats, but Cardi didn’t let the slight go unanswered. Cardi responded by telling Lahren she was “blinded by racism,” and that Trump’s actions were actually “destroying” the country she claims to love.
You’re so blinded with racism that you don’t even realize the decisions the president you root for is destroying the country you claim to love so much .You are a perfect example on no matter how educated or smart you think you are you still a SHEEP! https://t.co/khRpoOt16B
January 22, 2019 — Cardi B defends City Girls amid conservative backlash
Cardi isn’t the only female rapper to face criticism over a raunchy video. When City Girls released their viral “Twerk” video, it was instantly criticized by pearl-clutchers who couldn’t stand the fact that some women feel empowered by showing off their bodies. After a conservative questioned what the song does to “empower” women, Cardi chimed in and came to City Girls’ defense.
It says to women that I can wear and not wear what ever I want. do w.e I want and that NO still means NO. So Stephanie chime in..If I twerk and be half naked does that mean I deserve to get raped and molested ? I want to know what a conservative woman like you thinks https://t.co/8UBQQzO6jK
June 18, 2020 — Conservatives pull Cardi into a conversation about Aunt Jemima
When the Aunt Jemima brand was discontinued to to it’s proliferation of problematic racial archetypes, Cardi was somehow pulled into the conversation. One critic posed the question, “Aunt Jemima is degrading to Black women but Cardi B isn’t?” In response, Cardi stood up for herself while also speaking truth to the controversy in a since-deleted tweet. “Why you conservative Republicans always use my name to get viral tweets?” she wrote. “‘Cause how me & Aunt Jemima correlate? Aunt Jemima is degrading because it’s a symbol that implies black women are only good to be massa servant or cookin’ nanny — THATS WHY!”
July 31, 2019 — Candace Owens challenges Cardi to a debate
Conservative contributor Candace Owens has recently become one of the most vocal critics of Cardi. After the rapper showed her public support of Bernie Sanders, Owens offered her $250,000 to join her in a political debate. But Cardi had the perfect response. “Why don’t you use that 250k for a charity that will be more helpful,” she asked.
Why don’t you use that 250k for a charity that will be more helpful.I like Bernie because since the 60s he’s been fighting for https://t.co/HJ7iDjllir looks like progression is really his passion.I still want to ask other candidates questions that my followers would like to know. https://t.co/yucoeBJdd3
August 7, 2020 — Cardi and Megan Thee Stallion release the “WAP” video
After Cardi and Megan dropped their internet-breaking “WAP” visual, several conservative politicians thought it best to offer their less-than-nuanced takes about the video. One conservative congressional candidate from California, who said he “accidentally” heard the song, tweeted that Cardi and Megan are “what happens when children are raised without God and without a strong father figure.” He also noted that it wanted to make him “pour holy water” on his ears.
Cardi B & Megan Thee Stallion are what happens when children are raised without God and without a strong father figure. Their new “song” The #WAP (which i heard accidentally) made me want to pour holy water in my ears and I feel sorry for future girls if this is their role model!

August 10, 2020 — Ben Shapiro reads the “WAP” lyrics
In the days following release of the “WAP” video, Ben Shapiro decided it was best to, like with her song “Bodak Yellow,” unpack “WAP” line-by-line. He read each lyric, infamously referring to p*ssy as “the p-word,” and calling the song “really really really vulgar.”
August 18, 2020 — “WAP” was used to promote a Republican boat party
After days of hearing right-wing criticisms of “WAP,” Cardi decided to do some trolling of her own. She stumbled across a video of a bunch of teenagers attending a Trump-supporting boat party which co-opted her track “WAP.” But Cardi expressed her disapproval after catching wind of the video. “I’m callin the fbi on this festivity,” she wrote. “They are not quarantining”
Wasn’t republican conservative throwing a little fit bout this song ?……..Anyways this makes my ass itchy. ….I’m callin the fbi on this festivity.They are not quarantining pic.twitter.com/kL3kuKChAm
August 19, 2020 — Tucker Carlson loses it over “WAP”
Since nearly every other conservative thinker was offended by Cardi’s “WAP” video, Tucker Carlson didn’t want to be left out. Carlson absolutely lost it in a segment on his show he dedicated to the track, where he moaned about the salacious lyrics and tried to argue that it’s hurting children. “Ask yourself, above all, and ask it more than once — What is this doing to our kids?” he said. “The people pushing it are clearly trying to hurt your children. Why is nobody pushing back?”
Tucker Carlson rips into the song “WAP” by Cardi B:
“That’s garbage. It’s aimed at young American girls… People are getting rich pushing that crap on the country and they should be ashamed of themselves.” pic.twitter.com/e4QQnnA7mz
September 7, 2020 — Candace Owens calls Cardi “illiterate”
When Cardi was able to score an interview with the then-presidential candidate Joe Biden, conservatives weren’t happy. Candace Owens, in particular, used the interview to promote her own political views. She along with calling Cardi “illiterate,” Owens said “her music and platform contributes to the disintegration of black culture and values.” But Cardi continued to assert that her no. 1 single actually proves she’s able to use her massive following to encourage young people to vote.
Yes you are right I have the number 1 song & I have a huge platform and I can make millions go vote to get the MAN THAT USED YOU .I don’t want to argue with you Candace I really don’t have the time .I honestly just feel sorry for you. https://t.co/haACwKRN13
December 2, 2020 — Cardi takes credit for Candice Owens’ popularity
Candace Owens’ many tiffs with Cardi led the rapper to conclude that their feuds only give Owens more of a following. Explaining why she decided to join OnlyFans, Cardi said: “There are certain things that I want to get more personal on, and I don’t want to get on Instagram Live and talk about it because blogs are gonna chop it up. There’s certain people I want to curse out, but I don’t want to give them clout. For example, when me and Candace Owens got into an argument, I gave that b*tch 2 million followers.”
Jan 4, 2021 — Cardi defends shielding Kulture’s ears from “WAP”
While on an Instagram Live, Cardi was blasting her track “WAP” until she noticed that her young daughter Kulture had snuck into the room. Cardi frantically turned the song off due to its explicit nature, which apparently rubbed people the wrong way. One person asked, “So ya daughter cant listen to it but everybody else’s daughter can?” Cardi quipped back that she makes music for adults — not kids. “Parents are responsible on what their children listen too or see,” she wrote. “I’m a very sexual person but not around my child just like every other parent should be.”
Ya needs to stop with this already ! I’m not jojosiwa ! I don’t make music for kids I make music for adults.Parents are responsible on what their children listen too or see.I I’m a very sexual person but not around my child just like every other parent should be. https://t.co/LRH3APdp9A
March 16, 2021 — Tucker Carlson names Cardi B’s Grammys performance an attack on “American values”
If the “WAP” visual didn’t give conservatives enough to complain about, Cardi and Megan gave an equally-raunchy 2021 Grammys performance of the song. To discuss the issue, Carlson tapped infamous Cardi hater Candace Owens to break down the set. During their segment, Carlson calls the performance “sinister” and expresses his concern for children — all while repeatedly airing clips of the performance. “This is starting to me to seem like it’s not even left or right, it’s not a political issue,” he said. “This seems like an attack on American values, American traditions, and you’re actually actively trying to make children aspire to things that are grotesque.”
March 15, 2021 — Cardi was brought into a conversation about the Dr. Seuss book ban
Dr. Seuss Enterprises decided to pull six books from publishing this year due to racist imagery. Though the decision had nothing to do with rap music, Cardi was pulled into the conversation by a conservative who somehow thought that kids are being taught “WAP” in schools. Just like the Aunt Jemima controversy the year prior, Cardi was made to defend herself while also educating people on why the books were offensive in the first place. “I get it wap might be a lil vulgar but stop comparing a sensual song to books that has RACIST content,” she wrote back.
When has a school made kids read the lyrics to wap? I get it wap might be a lil vulgar but stop comparing a sensual song to books that has RACIST content! How can ya not tell the difference?I see that common sense aint that common. https://t.co/xyzbzrPZri
April 22, 2021 — A conservative legislator brought up Cardi on the floor of the House of Representatives
Another day, another conservative partially blaming Cardi for “the moral decline of America.” Using the rapper’s Grammys performance as an example, Wisconsin Representative Glenn Grothman complained about the FCC’s regulations. “I received complaints in my office, and rightfully so, about Cardi B and the Grammys,” he said on the floor of the House of Representatives. “They wonder why we are paying the FCC if they feel that this should be in living rooms across the nation.”
Cardi, of course, put things into perspective: “I think we all been on the edge this week since we seen police brutality back to back including watching one of the biggest case in history go down DUE to police brutality but wait ! This is wat state representative decide to talk about.”
This gets me so mad ya don’t even know! I think we all been on the edge this week since we seen police brutality back to back including watching one of the biggest case in history go down DUE to police brutality but wait ! This is wat state representative decide to talk about https://t.co/k2ZBn9gONA
At the 2020 Grammy Awards, Lil Nas X was nominated for six awards and he ended up winning a couple, taking home the prizes for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance and Best Music Video (both for “Old Town Road”). Of the four losses, the one that hurt him the most was Record Of The Year, which went to “Bad Guy” by Billie Eilish (who notably won all four major Grammys that year) instead of his own “Old Town Road.” In a new cover story for British GQ Style, the rapper admits that initially, he was jealous of Eilish for her win and thought it wasn’t “fair” that his record-breaking single didn’t get the award.
He said that as Eilish accepted the award, he thought, “Damn, but how? I have the biggest song. That isn’t fair.” Months later while in lockdown, though, he reflected on that evening and found a different point of view. He said, “I put all that energy I was feeling onto her. It became jealousy that wasn’t warranted. You have the longest-running number one song, why the f*ck are you jealous about this award? We are already so blessed. Even if you don’t have these things, you’re here. You’re still alive. You exist. You shouldn’t have any reason to be jealous.”
Lil Baby and Jayda Cheaves are proud parents of a two-year-old boy, named Loyal. After being on and off as the result of cheating scandals, the couple decided to call it quits as recently as February 2021.
While the two were dating, however, Lil Baby had a history of treating his girl with grand gifts, such as a custom diamond necklace and countless $10,000-Birkin bags, which she gladly showed off on social media.
Now it seems the “We Paid” rapper may be attempting to repair the damaged relationship by spoiling her with even more gifts.
Last week when Jayda celebrated the opening of her new business Waydamin Merch, she was gifted several flower arrangements by Lil Baby. When she shared the flowers on IG, fans speculated whether or not it meant anything larger in terms of their relationship — were they back together, or was this simply a gesture of good will?
This past weekend, Lil Baby fanned the flames of speculation once again. For Mother’s Day, he threw Jayda a brunch party with friends and family in attendance.
Jayda took to her Instagram to show off the luxurious details, such as a dance floor, ping pong table, and floral arrangements. The exes were seen dancing and having a good time with family and their son.
Lil Baby also surprised her with what seemed to be a brilliant last-minute idea. Event planner Jahil McAllister posted a screenshot from a call with the rapper, captioned, “Yesterday at 7 pm went a little like this.” She followed it up with a short video clip of a romantic candlelit dinner set in a room filled with flowers, that Jayda later posted on her own Instagram Story.
Do you think Lil Baby is trying to buy his way back into Jayda’s heart? Let us know below.
View Jayda’s mini-photo gallery from her brunch party below, or else, you can still peruse her Instagram stories for even more.
Tim Tebow is a football player who has elicited a ton of polarizing reactions throughout his career. The former Florida Gators quarterback came into the league with a National title under his belt although many were aware of his shortcomings when throwing the football. When it comes to college offenses, Tebow was as good as they come but in terms of NFL football, Tebow just simply didn’t have the talent necessary to compete with everyone else.
After a few years in the league, Tebow was eventually ousted which led to his brief career in baseball. Now, Tebow is back except this time around he is looking to play tight end. In fact, Tebow recently tried out with the Jacksonville Jaguars and according to the NFL Network, the team has every intention of signing him.
The contract has yet to be signed although it is believed that it will be a simple one-year deal. Tebow was urged to switch to tight end years ago although he decided that he would rather play quarterback. Now, he has completely changed his mind in a move that has surprised many throughout the football world.
This is going to be a unique experiment although if it works, the Jaguars will look like geniuses.
Known for his expensive taste, Lil Uzi Vert loves all of the most innovative fashion designers, including Marni, Rick Owens, Off-White, and more. Fans follow him for his silly photo dumps, which usually outline his fit of the day, as well as everything else that caught his eye. While he’s known as one of the most fashionable men in hip-hop, Uzi wants to be recognized as the biggest trendsetter in the game, asserting his dominance on Instagram.
Instagram
“Remember I’m a rapper that started fashion,” boldly claimed the Philadelphia native on his story this week. “Marni boys and girls.”
Lil Uzi definitely has some of the best outfits out of anybody in music but did he start fashion? Rappers before him have had strong interests in their personal style– streetwear and rap music typically go hand-in-hand– but is Uzi the most stylish man to ever hold a microphone? Let us know what you think in the comments.
