Moneybagg Yo found himself in an online back-and-forth with a woman who claims to be the mother of one of his children. As the rapper launched his new restaurant, Cache 42 in Memphis, a woman named Poison Ivy seemingly shared a post under a Facebook page that appeared to belong to the establishment. However, it didn’t mention anything about the restaurant but rather, Bagg’s love life with Ari Fletcher, who he’s been dating for at least two years at this point.
The post, which was written by a page titled “Cache 42 Kitchen & Cocktails, simultaneously dissed and praised Poison Ivy and Ari. “I’m so happy to have shared this moment without Poison Ivy and with Ari instead. Ari may not have spiritual abilities and she may not be Poison Ivy but I will marry Ari one day You ni**as can have Poison Ivy! You see where I’m staying! I’ll go to war with God because I worship Allah. Grand Opening was one for the books! Me and Ari love life,” the statement read.
The rapper didn’t call the woman out by name but he made it clear that he, nor his team, have launched a page for Cache 42. He suggested that Poison used his name to “go viral” while encouraging his followers to report the page. “If Y’all Love Me Report This Fake Capp Ass Shit!! It’s Some Weird Ppl In this World Just Be Wanting To Go Viral For Wateva Shit Sad Bra REPORT THIS PAGE CACHE 42 DONT HAVE A REAL FB PAGE YET!” he posted.
However, Poison Ivy said that Moneybagg Yo is lying. Not only that, she said that Bagg is trying to get out of his relationship with Ari and allowed Poison to post on the Facebook page. “That boy sat up there and watched that shit get posted and then want to turn around, and then get mad, and then go on his mothaf*ckin’ sh*t and sit up here and say, ‘That’s not me off this page,’” Poison said before denying that she’s looking for clout. “How the f*ck I wanna get clout of this n***a?… Moneybagg wants to leave Ari.” Check out the full post above.
Moneybagg Yo has officially crossed the threshold into the restauranteur business. The “Wockesha” rapper just opened his own restaurant in his hometown, Memphis. This is not the first business move for Moneybagg. Though he is now based in Atlanta, he has been attempting to actively invest in Memphis. This has led him to give money to local alkaline water business Vior. Additionally, Moneybagg Yo bought a plot of land to build a community center. He plans to name it after his late friend, Nuskie. The announcement of the restaurant opening is some much needed good press for Moneybagg. Recently, The rapper was dragged into an alleged sex tape scandal.
On February 27, a Twitter account named “@igmodeltearoom” shared a picture from a sex tape. The page said that the man in the picture was Moneybagg Yo. Another account named “Gossip of the City Tea” chimed in, as well.They claimed that the rapper had met the woman in the video at a New York strip club. “She recorded them fking. I’m limited to what I can post regarding this situation,” the account tweeted cryptically. Having caught wind of the rumors, Moneybagg tweeted a response shutting down the allegations. “Mane stop mentioning me in this picture of somebody getting f*cked,” he said. “Y’all ppl WIERD bra my whole body tatted sh*t not me!” Still, for reasons unknown, it seems like the rapper and girlfriend Ari Fletcher may not be on the best of terms.
Negative headlines and cheating allegations aside, Moneybagg Yo looks extremely happy to be investing in Memphis. In a video posted to Twitter, the rapper cuts a black ribbon, signifying the official opening of his restaurant. Moneybagg was very involved with the details of the restaurant. He will not, however, be taking part in day-to-day operations. The establishment, named Cache 42, has also enlisted Daris Leatherwood as its chef. Leatherwood was previously Lil Wayne’s private chef, so patrons can surely expect a fine dining experience.
Moneybagg Yo may not be having the best luck in his personal life lately, but his career is booming. In addition to his entrepreneurial endeavors, the rapper’s hotly anticipated new album is expected to be released in the near future. Just a few days ago, Moneybagg took to Instagram live to let fans know that the album is imminent. In the meantime, fans in the Memphis area can check out Cache 42 for an upscale dining experience.

While they don’t quite go to the same extremes as Blueface and Chrisean Rock, Ari Fletcher and Moneybagg Yo have never been the type to hide their relationship drama from the public eye. In the past, we’ve seen the social media starlet seemingly announce her single status over Twitter, however, she and the southern-bred rapper always seem to find their way back to one another. Unfortunately, though, it seems she may be beginning her Hot Girl Summer preparations a little early this year, leading to a social media spat with her man.
“Get yo shit together baby, we in f*ck that n*gga season!” the mother of one tweeted on Thursday (March 29) afternoon. Fletcher’s message got plenty of support, wither over 12K retweets and hundreds of replies. “Ari don’t have me like this and you laid up with your man ,” one person joked of the entertainer’s unfailing tendency to stick by Bagg’s side. “I’m tryna get like you,” they added. Another user chimed in, “I needed this . I was just about to be over here bawling my eyes out FA NOTHING!”
While Fletcher’s followers were showing support for her declaration, her man made it known that he wasn’t so impressed. “[You] ain’t on shit, he calmly wrote back, standing in his confidence that his long-term girlfriend would be back in no time. “. This how all n*ggas be feeling when they girl cappin’ online,” a fan of the 31-year-old’s joked in response to his quote tweet. “She’s talking to the girlies Bagg. It’s women’s empowerment, women’s month. Let us be,” someone else chimed in, suggesting that Yo stay out of the conversation.
Aside from encouraging social media users to break up with their boyfriends, Ari Fletcher also broke the internet with a wild thirst trap earlier this month. After detailing her plans to undergo a waist-slimming procedure a few weeks back, the YouTuber appears to have done just that, revealing her ultra-toned midsection in a nearly naked Instagram Story last week. See for yourself here, and make sure to check back later for more pop culture news updates.
Moneybagg Yo is one of the hottest names in hip-hop music. But it is important to note that the Memphis rapper’s rise to the top wasn’t overnight, nor was it a fast climb. However, that’s not the case when it comes to his tussles in the sheets. On his raunchy track “Quickie,” the musician makes it abundantly clear that he’s not opposed to a lighting round of lovemaking.
Bagg might play around with the toxic love jokes on social media or on his collaborative track with GloRilla, but he’s a loverboy at heart. On “Quickie” he raps, “Told her, ‘Make a wish’ / ’11:11,’ what she tweeted, let me be your genie / Sneaky linkin’, we don’t tell it (uh) / Kissin’, touchin’, breathin’ heavy (uh) / Foreplay session got you ready (go) / Beat it, but I don’t support domestic (no).”
Bagg brought that same swagged-out energy to his UPROXX Sessions performance of the fan-favorite track. Be sure to keep a lookout for his forthcoming album, Hard To Love, set to be released soon.

Rap Snacks was formed by James Lindsay, a self-proclaimed “snack food connoisseur” who wanted to mix his love for food and Hip-Hop culture. With the help of family and friends, Lindsay began with the company with $40,000, and after meeting with distributors, he sold 800 cases of Rap Snacks within two hours. Rap Snacks laid low for many years due to issues with producers and the size of its bags. However, Complex reports in 2007, Romeo Miller purchased Rap Snacks from Lindsay, and the brand has grown significantly within the past few years into a $30 million business.

In 2020, Miller said he had finally been paid his money for his earnings and endorsements. He was one of the first rappers featured on Rap Snacks’ bags, and his signature flavor is “Bar-B-Quin’ with my Honey” potato chips.
Discontinued Flavors
Both Atlanta rapper Lil Yachty and New Jersey artist Fetty Wap once had Rap Snacks items which have since been discontinued. It is uncertain why their flavors have been canceled, yet both rappers can say their face was on a Rap Snacks bag. Lil Yachty’s and Fetty Wap’s Rap Snacks can be found online on other sites. Each rapper had only one signature flavor made. Yachty’s was called “Oowee Hot Cheese Fries,” while Fetty had “Honey Jalapeno.”
Rap Snacks also has a series of flavors for “icons” of Hip-Hop. Snoop Dogg is a legendary hip-hop artist with Rap Snacks Icon flavors. These include “Cheddar BBQ Nocho Nachos,” “O.G. Bar-B-Que Cheddar Puffs,” and “O.G. Bar-B-Que Cheddar” potato chips. The late legendary New York Hip-Hop artist Notorious B.I.G. also has one, as well.

Moneybagg Yo starred alongside GloRilla for his “On Wat U On” video to start this year and rocked Rolling Loud California earlier this month, but his fans are satisfied. They want the album, so he hopped on Instagram Live a few days ago to give an encouraging update.
“Y’all are on my ass about this album. It’s comin’! I just told y’all it was coming,” Moneybagg Yo said, according to a snippet captured by RapTV. “I wanna tell y’all the date bad as hell, but it’s close. It’s real close. I promise. I swear to God. I love y’all. I love my fans. I ain’t gonna lie.”
In an interview with Billboardpublished on March 16, Moneybagg Yo shared more details about Hard To Love, the aforementioned forthcoming 22-track album. According to the publication, he described Hard To Love as a “personal” title because “he finds himself hard to love.”
“At the end of the day to love me, you have to understand me,” he said.
He’s also been teasing the album on Twitter.
“Even tho I do this effortlessly I put in real work on this album, hope y’all enjoy,” the Memphis rapper tweeted on March 20, including a fire emoji, eyeballs emoji, and trophy emoji. That was followed on March 25 with an even more confident tweet, “I SWEAR WEN [sic] I DROP ITS OVAAAAA.”
Even tho i do this effortlessly I put in real work on this on album , hope y’all enjoy
Moneybagg Yo has promised that his new album is coming very soon. Like many artists, the rapper has taken a break between albums. However, this means that his fans have been clamoring for an update on new material. During an Instagram live video, Moneybagg Yo said that his album is coming soon and that it’s “real close”. Despite these claims, no release date has yet been revealed for his forthcoming album. So far, we know that the album will be titled Hard To Love and will have 22 tracks.
Moneybagg Yo’s previous album, his fourth, was released in 2021. Titled A Gangsta’s Pain, the album garnered fairly favorable reviews. It also peaked at number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and has since been certified platinum. Given the state of the industry, being certified platinum is actually a pretty big deal these days. In fact, Moneybagg Yo has plenty of platinum certifications, and has even gone as far as referring to himself as a “certified hitmaker.” So, it’s safe to say that his label will take its time to make sure the release of his forthcoming album is done right.
Now, just because someone goes platinum doesn’t mean they are without their fair share of haters. In fact, it likely means they’ll be hated on even more. Take one look at the comment section on the announcement and you will see some absolutely brutal reactions. The top comment reads “i don’t think anybody cares lmao.” Scroll only slightly further down, and you’ll see more of the same type of comments. “Literally no one ever has said ‘man I can’t wait for a Moneybagg yo album’,” one comment says. “Just drop it bro we know ain’t gonna be that good regardless,” remarked another.
That’s not to suggest that Moneybagg Yo doesn’t have supporters. Look at the comments further, and you’ll discover fans that are already calling Hard To Love the “album of the year.” That’s some pretty high praise considering it’s only March, and there are 8 months’ worth of releases left this year for him to contend with. Still, not just anyone can get certified platinum as many times as he has in this day and age, which means Moneybagg Yo must be doing something right.
Gumbo Brands, has become the largest black-owned international cannabis company in the world, has announced their “420 Gumbo Festival”, with Rich the Kid, Moneybagg Yo and D-Block’s Jadakiss as the festival’s headliner.
