Action Bronson has been undergoing a body transformation for the ages, having shed over sixty pounds following a dedicated fitness and dietary regiment. Yet as they say, the show must go on, and that includes his passion project series F*ck That’s Delicious. 

No longer affiliated with Vice, the independently produced fifth season has shifted away from unbridled gluttony, placing further emphasis on Bronson’s active lifestyle. That’s not to say the gourmet culinary stylings of Chef Bronsolinio are done away with altogether — the iconic title suggests, there remains plenty of high-quality food porn designed to get the mouth-watering. 

In the fifth season’s second episode, titled “BAM BAM AND CC’S TORTURE CHAMBER,” Bronson hits the gym with Hall of Fame pitcher CC Sabathia, plays a spirited game of paddleball with his longtime buddy, and tosses a “beautiful prime bone-in filet” onto the grill. Though some might not necessarily be into the fitness footage, rest assured that there’s enough of Bronson’s signature wit and charming vernacular to keep even the most gym-averse viewer entertained. 

As for the main course, Bronson brushes his prime filets with garlic with the Sicilian oil (“Sun-softened,” he adds) before placing them tenderly atop the grill. A simple meal to be sure, but one that’s about as tried and true as they come. Check out the inspiring second episode of F*ck That’s Delicious below, and show some love to hip-hop’s favorite gourmet. 

On the final day of March, it is reported that another mass shooting has taken place within the United States. All throughout March, there have been several incidents of gun violence across the country, including the spa shootings across the metro Atlanta area, the grocery store shooting Boulder, Colorado, and the still-fresh Virginia Beach shooting. Now, a shooting has reportedly taken place today in Congress Heights, a neighborhood in the southeast region of Washington, DC. According to Complex, the shooting took place around 1:30 p.m. local time near the Congress Heights Metro station, and local authorities arrived on the scene shortly after.

Complex reports that local police have confirmed that the mass shooting has left at least four people shot. Although police have not been able to release details about the victims, they have revealed that two of the victims are in critical condition with life-threatening injuries. Details have also not yet been shared regarding the shooting suspect.

Stay tuned for updates on this developing story, as more details on the shooting are sure to surface soon.

Today marks Nipsey Hussle’s death anniversary, and many have come forward to celebrate the late rapper’s memory. His girlfriend Lauren London took a moment to speak on the profound loss she continues to feel, while many of his hip-hop peers offered their own reflections. One such message came from T.I, who has been relatively quiet on social media since finding himself embroiled in a legal situation.

In any case, Troubleman took the time to share a few thoughtful words on Nipsey Hussle’s legacy, looking back on what sounds like an eventful night the pair experienced in Atlanta. “It’s important to remember…Energy can not be destroyed…only transferred & redistributed,” he begins, alongside a clip of Hussle dropping knowledge in an interview. “Nip You’ve impacted the generation immeasurably & Your legacy will live on forever.”

I” miss our discussions & being able to challenge my plans & perspective by bouncing ideas off of each other over bottles of 1942 when we arbitrarily run into one another,” he continues. “Like the time you came to Atlanta & I pulled up on you & we went to see Dave Chappelle,blew gas backstage after the show and mobbed to Magic City… the 3 of us exchanging philosophy about life, society, family, future vacation plans, business, politics, street shit, real estate, religion, & pretty much anything that came up on the way to the bottom of the bottle.”

“Dave and I still talk about that night to this day & every time we do,” concludes T.I. “I can feel the same energy as that night. And it’s that energy that YOU produced and shared with so many of us that’ll live FOREVER!!! We All Love, Appreciate & Miss you Lil Bro.” Check out T.I’s message to Nipsey Hussle below, and rest in peace to the West Coast visionary. 

Another layer has been added to the high-profile breakup between rappers Quavo and Saweetie. The two called it quits last week after Saweetie called out Quavo and accused him of cheating on social media. Following some back-and-forth, it seemed as though we had possibly heard the end of their dramatic relationship. TMZ had different plans in mind though, releasing a video showing a physical altercation between Quavo and Saweetie in an elevator on Tuesday.

In the video, Saweetie tries to throw a punch at Quavo, her boyfriend at the time. He dodges the punch and physically pulls her into the elevator, dropping her to the ground as they struggle over an orange Call of Duty briefcase. Quavo does not offer to help his girlfriend up and shows very little care for her, walking out of the elevator after they reach their floor and holding the door open with the same briefcase they tussled over. Many have said that the video shows clear signs of toxicity and abuse in their relationship. Trouble argued in his own video that there was no abuse displayed. Boosie Badazz seems to agree.

Taking to Twitter, Boosie basically said that he’s siding with Quavo on this one. “@QuavoStuntin did not abuse @Saweetie,” wrote the rapper. “Look at the video, I AGREE WITH @TroubleDTE SHE LOST THE TUG OF WAR.”

It’s not a surprise that Boosie takes this stance on this situation. He’s known for his controversial opinions, voicing his misogynistic, homophobic, and transphobic views on the regular.

What do you think about Boosie’s stance on the physical altercation between Saweetie and Quavo?
