Coi Leray Speaks On Oversaturation In The Music Industry: “Every Song Is A Hit, Everybody Is A Star”

As she embarks upon the week of her 26th birthday, Coi Leray has a few things to get off of her chest. On Monday (May 8), the Trendsetter hitmaker used her Twitter profile to vent about the current status of the field she works in, writing, “The music industry is oversaturated. Every song is a hit. Everybody is a star.” Thousands of followers made it known they agree with the singer by liking or retweeting the post, but others didn’t hesitate to chime in with their opinions challenging Leray’s comments.

“Can’t help but think Coi benefited from said saturation,” one user pointed out, seemingly referring to the endless TikTok hits the Boston baddie has released throughout her career. “Valid message, wrong messenger,” their message concluded. On Tuesday (May 9) morning, Leray responded to that tweet, along with a few others. “Y’all [buggin],” she chiefly declared. “My versatility, my stage presence, my stats, my collabs, my brand deals,” the “Anxiety” artist quickly reminded readers of her various talents aside from crafting catchy tracks.

The Trendsetter Speaks Her Mind on Twitter

“[I’m a] fashion girl. I can dance, sing, [and] rap. It’s fine if you don’t see it now, I’m in no rush for you to notice,” Coi’s clap back continued. In another post that landed on her feed minutes later, she publicly hyped herself up even more as a reminder to any would-be haters that her confidence isn’t so easy to shake. “Lol, I’m that girl. Real life. Offline. In the booth, on the stage, on the red carpet. On the radio, overseas, and that’s just what it is, Leray noted. “Shout out to my bitches who stay true to themselves and [don’t give a f*ck] what nobody has to say!”

In later tweets, the soon-to-be birthday girl made it known that it’s all love, and she didn’t want to start drama with anyone. Rather, she’s reflecting on her achievements throughout the last year ahead of turning 26 on Thursday (May 11). Keep scrolling to read more from Coi Leray’s latest Twitter rant.

Blueface’s Mom Argues With Fan About Her Son & Chrisean Rock On IG Live: Watch

As she progresses in her pregnancy, 23-year-old Chrisean Rock continues to find herself caught up in drama with her baby daddy, Blueface, and his mother, Karlissa Saffold. A few days ago, the rapper’s family matriarch alleged on social media that her next grandchild will be a boy, after previously claiming that Rock was lying about the whole situation. Just last month, the young reality starlet revealed on Instagram Live that she had doubts about keeping her baby. Seeing as she’s now 20 weeks along and it’s far too late to consider an abortion, Chrisean has been soldiering on, even as the online berating from Blueface’s mother continues.

Over the weekend, Saffold went Live to get a few things off her chest as hundreds of fans tuned in. “I shouldn’t have been a part of that interview,” she yelled, referring to a recent sitdown of Rock’s during which Karlissa’s name came up in conversation. “It should’ve been about her music, my son. I shouldn’t have been a part of that interview. I’ve been added to every interview that they’ve ever done! So guess what? Somebody wants me here talking about it,” Blueface’s mom continued to rant, claiming that she’s a topic of discussion every time the Crazy In Love co-stars speak with the press.

Karlissa Saffold Vents About Blueface and Chrisean Rock

As the clip continues, Saffold and a fan obnoxiously argue about the validity of her claims. While the former asserts that Rock regularly refuses to skip questions from interviewers, the latter shut that down, saying that the Maryland native has done just that in the past. “I watch every interview, I’m tuned in. I follow Blue, I follow Rock, I follow you,” they clapped back at Karlissa, making their credentials abundantly clear.

After some more back-and-forth, the video cuts before the rapper’s embattled parent suggests they add someone else to the Live. In the comment section on @theneighborhoodtalk’s repost, many are expressing gratitude to have their mother instead of one who engages in such damaging, toxic online behaviour. “Aht Aht! You said if she really pregnant you would get off Instagram! 😂😂😂😂😂,” one user joked. “I wish this lady would go ahead and say she in love with her son and get it over with,” another added.

Freddie Gibbs Denies The Fit Mami’s Claims About Paying For His Cell: “I Ain’t Got No Phone”

Rather than playing into the drama currently being created by his ex-girlfriend (and future baby mama) on social media, Freddie Gibbs is keeping his cool. If you’ve been on Twitter today, you may have seen the star’s unfortunate new nickname, “Spreadie Gibbs” trending. The moniker was bestowed upon him after Destini, the woman he formerly dated who’s now pregnant with his child, told her followers that she allegedly has NSFW images of Gibbs showing off his behind in her camera roll.

It seems the Indiana native opted to cut her out of his life completely after she turned to social media to vent about their situation earlier this week. During their time together, the adult entertainer says she and Gibbs both expressed interest in starting a family and that she was even paying for his phone bill. When a wild night of lovemaking actually led to conception, however, the 40-year-old changed his mind, making it clear that he’s not ready to be a father at this time. After getting wind of Destini – also known as The Fit Mami – and her Twitter exposé, Freddie apparently blocked her, choosing to address the situation with a brief tweet on Friday (May 5).

Freddie Gibbs Responds to His Ex

“I ain’t got no phone,” the father of one wrote in an attempt to refute his former partner’s allegations. Of course, it wasn’t long before trolls began pouring into the replies with their thoughts. “Yeah, we know bro,” one of them quipped. “She stopped paying 💀.” Others couldn’t resist but bring up “Spreadie Gibbs,” further taunting the embattled lyricist over the rumours.

One fan asked him, “Gangsta Gibbs they said you was spreadin’ eagle. Tell me it ain’t true,” though the “Crime Pays” hitmaker neither confirmed nor denied that gossip specifically. “Man the next album about to be extraordinary,” someone else speculated. Clearly, the world is looking forward to the follow-up to 2022’s $oul $old $eparately. Keep scrolling to see Twitter’s reaction to Freddie Gibbs’ short and simple response to his ex’s allegations. If you’re not already caught up on the tea, you can read TheFitMami’s lengthy rants about their relationship here and here.

6ix9ine Lashes Out At Billboard Amid Merch Album Sales Reinstatement: “Anything Just To Not See Me Win”

Some ops at the gym certainly got the better of him earlier this year, but 6ix9ine managed to make a triumphant comeback thanks to singles like “WAPAE” and “Y Ahora” last month. Seeing as his embattled reputation obviously precedes him in the U.S., the lyricist has been tapping into the Spanish music market, where he’s found major success working with various collaborators. While he’s been celebrating the major victories coming along with that on social media, 6ix9ine also didn’t hesitate to use his platform to call out Billboard over a recent rule change that isn’t sitting right with him.

“Billboard to count limited fan packs/merch bundles with physical albums towards Billboard 200 chart starting June 30th,” a tweet from @chartdata reported earlier this week. Upon hearing the news, 6ix9ine took a screenshot of the post to share with a message of his own on his IG Story. “LITERALLY A JOKE,” the 26-year-old’s rant began on Thursday (May 4). “I’m the reason you guys got rid of this rule,” he further asserted. “You guys did everything and ANYTHING just to not see me win. BRINGIN’ IT BACK BECAUSE Y’ALL ARTISTS CAN SELL WITHOUT IT.”

6ix9ine Blasts Billboard

DJ Akademiks shared the “GOOBA” artist’s thoughts on his own page, leading 6ix9ine to drop by the comments there and get more off of his chest. “The rule got changed in June/July of 2020. I sold over $3M of [bundled] merch for ‘GOOBA,’” he explained. “The Nicki and Travis thing was in 2018 for ‘Queen’ because I promoted it,” the east coast star added, referring to Nicki Minaj’s anger over Travis Scott beating her out for the No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200, which she claimed only happened due to the merch bundles sold with his project.

“The industry changed rules and laws just to blackball an artist, that’s how I know I’m really him,” the controversial star concluded. “Get mad all you want, but this is facts.” Do you think 6ix9ine’s anger towards Billboard is valid, or is he letting a victim complex get the better of him? Let us know in the comments, and tap back in later for more hip-hop news updates.

Sukihana Praises Lil Mama After Their Feud

Sukihana and Lil Mama had a brief social media spat over the former’s lewd appearance in an NLE Choppa music video. The two went back and forth for a little bit, mostly prompted by the “Love & Hip Hop: Miami” star hearing that Mama was talking smack about her online. However, during her recent appearance on The Breakfast Club, the 31-year-old actually gave the New York rapper her flowers, seemingly backtracking on their previous hostility. In a social media clip making the rounds online, she said that people don’t credit her enough these days and only look at the ill-received aspects of her career.

“Lil Mama’s actually a good person,” Sukihana began. “She’s not a bad person at all. And it’s so sad that the world been against her since the Jay-Z and Alicia Keys thing. Like, she just having fun. Honestly, I don’t feel no type of way. Come on, it’s Lil Mama. She been in the game for a minute. Like, “Lip Gloss” was poppin’. We can’t discredit her. She’s a legend. Like, people don’t know that Lil Mama is a legend. Even though they like to discredit her, she has been in this game for a minute and I feel like she’s very talented.”

Sukihana Has Kind Words For Lil Mama After Their Brief Beef

What’s more is that this was far from the only notable moment to take away from Sukihana’s appearance on the radio show. While she squashed her beef with Lil Mama, she hilariously started new beef with Charlamagne Tha God. As she spoke proudly of her upcoming song’s hit potential, the media personality pushed back and said that it won’t necessarily see the success she wants just because DJ Clue told her it would pop off. Clearly, she didn’t like that, and proceeded to dog on Charlamagne as the other hosts (and Charlamagne himself) laughed and joked along.

“What, s**t, you’s a motherf***in’ liar,” she clapped back. “Under that two piece that you got on, you got a thong up your a** and your booty hole shaved. So I’ma let you be great, but we gon’ get back to this motherf***in’ hit. It’s shaved, it’s shaved. You like that a** licked. And there’s nothing wrong with that. You gon’ motherf***in’ respect a queen when you see one. I don’t give a f**k if DJ Clue lie. B**h, God tell the truth, and ‘Casamigo’ is a hit!” Interestingly enough, Lil Mama has her own bone to pick with Charlamagne. For more updates on her and Sukihana, stay posted on HNHH.

Latto Mourns Her Late Friend, Nicki Minaj’s Fans The Barbz Hatefully Troll Her

Coachella is done and dusted for another year, but the iconic performances given are still sitting fresh in the minds of fans. Among those who impressed festival goers two weekends in a row this year is Latto. During her first appearance on the stage, she previewed a new song featuring a diss seemingly aimed at Nicki Minaj. The following Friday (April 21), “Put It On Da Floor” arrived on streamers, earning the 777 Radio host plenty of love from her fans. Unfortunately, the Queen of Rap’s own followers – known as The Barbz – have taken far less kindly to Latto’s antics.

Earlier this week, the “Lottery” artist revealed that a close friend of hers named Monta suddenly passed away. Latto and the late man have been in each other’s life since childhood. “You broke my heart n*gga,” she wrote in the caption of her Instagram tribute post, which includes their grade five class photo and a select few other heartfelt memories. Over on Twitter, the 24-year-old continued to mourn, this time writing, “I’LL NEVER MONTA!!!! WHY U DO THIS TO ME 💔💔💔💔💔.”

Latto Pays Tribute to Monta

As expected many of Latto’s followers sent love in her time of need. Others, however, (many of them Barbz) saw this as the perfect opportunity to kick the rap diva while she’s down. “Hopefully your music career next,” one hate comment under her post reads. Another says, “I think I speak for everyone when I say we don’t care 💔💔💔💔💔.” Elsewhere, an even more concerning reply hints at doing voodoo in hopes of attracting negativity into the Ohio-born artist’s life.

Thankfully, she’s certainly feeling the love after seeing how many are standing up for her at this time. “This girl could be posting about a BLM movement or standing up for hate crimes and these people always find a way to be rude,” one of them pointed out. Keep scrolling to see The Barbz’s hate comments aimed at Latto, as well as responses from others defending her. Afterward, tell us if you think Nicki Minaj’s fans were out of line this time in the comments below.

Finesse2tymes & His Girl Diss JT & Lil Uzi Vert: “Who Man You Calling Ugly? Have You Seen Yours?”

JT is best known for the bars she’s created as one-half of City Girls, but the Florida native certainly knows how to run her mouth outside of the studio too. Earlier this week, she found herself in the midst of some nasty internet drama after comparing a baby to Memphis rapper Finesse2tymes, calling both of them “ugly” in response to an internet troll hating on her partner, Lil Uzi Vert. “Ugly baby and dead father 😿,” she wrote. “That baby looks like Finesse 2 x’s. Please leave me alone. I’m not bothering no one 🙂 ❤.”

Following that, the “Twerkulator” hitmaker headed over to Twitter to share some thoughts. “I’m the most unproblematic person ever,” her rant began. “Idgaf ’bout nothing, but if I find time to throw a shot back I will. Nothing personal all love.” In another post, JT went on to say, “[People] will constantly pick on you and call you upset when you respond. I’m not mad, have no reason to be mad! But you mad ’cause I’m not giving you the clarification you want? So you gone constantly bully me for what you wanna hear? Nah, Ima talk about you bad without clearin’ up nothin’. I’m innocent.”

JT Throws Shade While Defending Lil Uzi Vert

The 30-year-old may think that she’s innocent, but Finesse2tymes and his new girl definitely don’t agree. “JT, WHO MAN YOU CALLING UGLY?” FNG Shugga wrote on her Instagram Story after reading the rap diva’s comments. “HAVE YOU SEEN YOURS😕?” she also asked, seemingly poking fun at LUV’s unique new Leslie Chow alter ego they’ve been sporting since Rolling Loud Thailand. The “How to Act” hitmaker also defended himself, threatening to “break” JT in a post on his own profile. “Guess she mad ’cause I said can’t do nun [with] no skinny ho 🤷🏽‍♂️😂,” he typed over a black screen.

As if that weren’t enough, the southern lyricist also addressed the situation during an IG Live session a few hours ago. “Ain’t gone let no hoe get a pass… I’ll stand on a n*gga in the same way,” he told viewers tuning in. Scroll on to see what FNG Shugga and Finesse2tymes had to say for yourself, and check back later for more hip-hop news updates.

JT Claps Back At Haters Dissing Her & Lil Uzi Vert’s Style

If there’s one person JT doesn’t play about, it’s her partner Lil Uzi Vert. The pair have always been each other’s ride or die. They take turns spoiling one another with luxurious and romantic gifts. Elsewhere, they’ve been defending one another from the countless internet trolls causing problems online. What many have come to love about the unconventional couple is their unique style, which even saw the Philadelphia native debuting a new alter ego, Leslie, during his trip to Thailand this past weekend.

While LUV took over the stage at Rolling Loud, their girlfriend and her partner in rhymer, Yung Miami, lit things up at Revolve Festival. For her appearance, JT wore her hair in a sleek black middle-parted style, her stunning facial features accentuated by a dark, glamorous beat. Around her neck, she wore a massive cross pendant, and her outfit perfectly matched the vibe, consisting of all-black garments. “She is stunning oh my God,” one Twitter user wrote when sharing an image of the City Girl with their followers. Another person quote tweeted the post, though their thoughts on JT’s appearance were far less kind.

Twitter Disses JT’s Dark New Look

“Uzi got her dressed like the ‘Bride of [Chucky]’,” they wrote. While it earned them minimal clout in the form of 1.2K likes, it also got an aggressive clap back from JT herself. “It’s really not funny as it was years ago!” she said to the hater. “Bitch I had on my outfit for my show, get off his f*ck obsessed asf!!!!” After the “Twerkulator” artist unleashed her rage, the OP clarified, “I ain’t say [you] look ugly [with] the gothic style lol.” Regardless, the 30-year-old was clear that she’s tired of hearing the discourse about her relationship. “How ’bout you don’t say shit and go sale your socks in peace!” she ended the conversation.

It seems JT was in a mood today (April 18), as she also had time to come for someone who was seemingly trying to defend her lashing out at haters. “One thing I love about JT, she always gonna step behind the people she love,” they tweeted. “It’s just sad when the energy not reciprocated. Before long, the “Act Up” artist entered the chat. “Bitch shut uppppppp, you don’t even know me to care if energy is reciprocated,” the City Girl pointed out. “Go make sure your family straight. Get off the internet, fake caring about strangers ’cause [I don’t give a f*ck] about you!!!!!!” See the drama for yourself below, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Candace Owens Says JoJo Siwa Is “Lying” About Sexuality, Teen Tells Commentator To “Back The F*ck Off”

If there’s one thing you can always count on Candace Owens to do, it’s stir the pot. Her most recent bout of antics arrived on Twitter earlier this week when the right-wing political commentator opted to turn her attention to JoJo Siwa’s TikTok page. In a five-minute video, the grown woman dissects the teenager’s social media posts, going so far as to accuse her of faking her sexuality. As you may recall, the Dance Moms alum came out as part of the LGBTQ community in January 2021. “I don’t believe JoJo Siwa is a lesbian,” Owens declared in her post from April 4.

“But the way, I want to state that very clearly, I do believe she’s desperate for attention,” the 33-year-old said of Siwa. “You’re not going to believe what she’s doing now,” Owens added before speculating about a romance between the internet sensation and former Disney Channel star, Demi Lovato. In the same year that JoJo came out, the Camp Rock actress also informed the world that she’s pansexual. “She did this for attention,” the talk show host doubled down on the relationship rumours. “I don’t believe she’s a lesbian no more than I believe Demi Lovato is a lesbian.”

JoJo Siwa Claps Back at Candace’s Comments

In the caption of her tweet, Owens once again pondered, “Is JoJo Siwa lying about being lesbian for attention?” While some of the internet is in agreeance with the mother of two, many others are slamming her for concerning herself with the love life of a 19-year-old when she has a family of her own. As the post continued to circulate online, Siwa eventually got word of it and didn’t hesitate to give her new nemesis the attention she was looking for.

“I haven’t watched the video yet… But if it has anything to do with your caption, respectfully, back the f*ck off,” she told the controversial figure. Candace Owens doesn’t appear to have responded to JoJo Siwa at this point, though she has posted other videos about heated conservative topics such as drag queens and the transgender community. Let us know if you think her comments on the teenager are out of line below, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Ari Fletcher & Moneybagg Yo Seemingly Beef On Twitter: “We In F*ck That N*gga Season!”

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!”

Ari Fletcher and Bagg Spark Beef Rumours

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.
