Lil Yachty And J Cole Have ‘The Secret Recipe’ Down To A Rap Science On Their New Collab

by

Lil Yachty isn’t slowing down. Tonight (September 28), the multifaceted rapper and singer, who dropped his psychedelic rock-influenced album Let’s Start Here back in January, has shared a new single, “The Secret Recipe.”

On “The Secret Recipe,” Yachty reminds us of his rap prowess, which is what brought him to instant fame in the mid-2010s.

Over a jazzy, instrument-driven beat, Yachty treats us to clever wordplay, channeling a newfound confidence as he freestyles effortlessly.

“I don’t smoke weed, already blunt, all of my cars, I had to hunt / My doggy young as hell but still will step, we call him runt / Like window shoppers, I see through every front,” raps Yachty.

J. Cole then hops in, delivering a verse equally as structured, reaffirming his GOAT status. He also notable calls out industry folk using social activism for clout.

“I started saying less / I had to stop it / Peeped how they profit off of racial stress / Some activists got so rich, they probably wished we stayed oppressed.

In the song’s accompanying video, the two rappers are seen in an empty arena, rapping their asses off, while making it look so damn easy.

Boosie Badazz Pops Off On Man Offering Him A Massage

by

Recently, Boosie Badazz was hanging out on the beach during one of his Instagram Lives, when a man offered him a favor. He suggested that he massage the rapper’s back, which left Boosie confused. “Huh?” he asked the apparent staff member. “Massage?” The Louisiana-born performer went on to tell the man that he was absolutely not interested in getting a massage from him due to his gender. “I ain’t lettin’ no n***a massage me,” he told him. “I ain’t lettin’ no man massage me.”

Clearly, Boosie wasn’t into it. “I let women massage me,” he continued. “I don’t even like [letting] women massage me because I think they’re getting off on it.” The man kept encouraging him to take him up on his offer, but Boosie was sticking to his guns. “No, go get a bad b*tch and tell her come massage me,” he advised him. “From the front.” It’s clear that the kind man offering meant no harm, and was just trying to provide Boosie with a relaxing experience. It seems like the rapper was worried about letting another man touch him in such an intimate way regardless, which makes sense considering his controversial stance on the LGBTQ+ community.

Boosie Does Not Want A Massage

During an interview with The Danza Project earlier this week, Boosie revealed that he once turned down a massive payday to perform at an LGBTQ event. “Companies don’t wanna mess with me for the things I speak about. It’s a lot of losses and it’s a lot of gains also. But I’m not being real for money,” he explained.

“If that’s the case, I can sell my soul for anything. I’ve been offered a quarter-million to go to perform at LGBT community things, big money. I told them I have nothing against it at all, but that’s not what I push and that’s not what I believe in.” What do you think of Boosie popping off on the man who offered him a massage on the beach?

Latto is making quite the impression, and it’s evident that she knows how to capture the public’s attention! The renowned Atlanta strip club, none other than the legendary Magic City, has undergone a temporary transformation. It’s now going by the name “Latto City.” In viral videos circulating across the internet, viewers can observe the new transformation of the club’s iconic logo to reflect this unique rebranding.

by

Recently, Sexyy Red dropped off her new track, “Shake Yo Dreads.” The release came after a bit of teasing on social media, which certainly managed to build anticipation. As expected, the track has prompted an influx of fans sending photos of their own dreads to the “Pound Town” performer. Unfortunately, however, it doesn’t look like she’s impressed with what she’s been seeing.

“Some of dem dreads y’all sendin lowercase,” she wrote on Twitter today. Sexyy Red’s also been sharing a variety of memes related to her disappointment. At this point, it’s become a trend for users to send objectively strange dreads to the hitmaker as a joke. One fan responded to her aforementioned Tweet, telling her, “Leave me alone these are braids I just wanted to feel apart.”

Sexyy Red Bombarded With Dreads

Though thirsty fans may think their unfortunate dreads are the reason Sexyy’s not interested, it might actually be because she’s got a new man. Earlier this week, the “SkeeYee” rapper shared a sweet photo of her and a mystery man cuddled up in bed together, prompting fans to speculate. “I like fckin wit drillaz… dread head killaz,” she captioned the post. Due the man’s ankle monitor, many thought it could be the father of her child. Some even suspected it was Boosie Badazz. They were proven wrong later in the day, however, when the man himself took to social media for a reveal.

Atlanta rapper WuDeuce went live on Instagram yesterday, turning his camera to face a sleeping Sexyy Red. He smoked as the performer rested, telling his fans “I put sh*t down up.” Some claim that he shouldn’t have exposed their relationship like that, and it’s unclear whether or not she wanted it to be public. Regardless, it’s now obvious whose dreads she was actually rapping about on her new track. What do you think of Sexyy Red dissing her fans’ dreads? Are you enjoying her new song?
