G-Unit: The Game Says 50 Cent Was Only Member Making Money

The Game is a name that’s been well-known in hip-hop for decades. Like many of his contemporaries, rap beefs have come his way throughout the years. One of the West Coast icon’s most famous feuds is with 50 Cent, whom he previously worked with in G-Unit. During a sitdown with VladTV, Game spoke about his experience in the group, and how it helped him move up on the industry’s ladder. However, he did admit that it felt as though Fif was the only one getting serious monetary opportunities, leading to some resentment between them.

“I appreciated the step up on the ladder,” the 44-year-old told Vlad. “I always felt like if I never got put in G-Unit, or Dr. Dre didn’t sign me to Aftermath, I would still be sitting here talking to you with the same track record,” he said. “I’m the type, like if I put my mind to something and I say this is what I want to do, that’s just simply what I’m going to do… It was cool being in G-Unit, but then it wasn’t because I felt like we was just in it.”

The Game Reflects on G-Unit’s Highs and Lows

From Game’s perspective, “50 was making the money and we was just in G-Unit.” The Compton native wasn’t specifically salty because of Curtis Jackson’s hunger for success. Still, he was hurting while cast in the shadows of another lyricist while trying to reach the top himself. “I definitely wanted to like, just be a solo artist and like get to get to it,” he admitted.

As The Game reflects on all the money he didn’t make while working with G-Unit, 50 Cent is keeping busy securing the bag than to another nemesis’ downfall. Last week, the “I Get Money” artist confirmed that he’s working on a documentary depicting Diddy’s troubling behaviour in the industry over the years after Cassie’s bombshell lawsuit.

Kodak Black’s Experimental Visuals For “2’CY” Draws More Questions Than Compliments

Kodak Black is one of the most interesting characters in rap today. Not only for his oddball personality but also for some of the material he puts out. The Florida native has been active yet again this year with two full-length projects to his name. Firstly, he put out Pistolz & Pearlz back on May 26. That album ran over an hour and six minutes with a 21-song tracklist. It was his last project under the umbrella of Atlantic Records. It would only take him another five and a half months before his presumedly last tape of 2023.

Three singles would promote Kodak’s more personal record When I Was Dead. One of those was a song called “2’CY.” It was a melodic cut that featured the rapper’s warbly flow. The production had a hint of Jersey club inspiration and can be seen as more of a softer cut. This is a reason why the reactions to these visuals for the single are putting the creative inspiration of Black in question.

Watch Kodak Black’s Haunting Music Video For “2’CY”

The video features a young boy who stumbles across a haunted house, with a little girl feasting on a dead body and Kodak’s head rapping in a fridge. The vibes clashed oddly and fans were not feeling it. XXL gathered some reactions to the imagery, with one saying, “This respectfully is the [worst] song yak ever made.” Another goes, “Why everybody making headless videos?? What’s the message n****?” Kodak has not responded to the reactions and he most likely will not. This may take the cake for the weirdest music video of the year.

What are your initial thoughts on this brand-new music video for “2’CY” by Kodak Black from When I Was Dead? Is this the best track from this album, why or why not? Do you think Kodak missed the mark on the visuals, especially considering the tone of the song? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this.

Karlissa Saffold’s Ex-Lesbian Lover/Best Friend Attempts To Sleep With Her Man, Visits Chrisean Jr. Alone

Karlissa Saffold isn’t a woman who feels the need to keep secrets – from her loved ones, or the internet – which unfortunately lands her in hot water with her inner circle more other than not. During a recent appearance on Jason Lee’s podcast, the Porter family matriarch opened up about what life was like for her before Blueface and his siblings entered the picture, including details about her past LGBTQ+ relationship with another woman. Though they weren’t able to make their romance last in the long term (and have allegedly since been “delivered” and married men), they remain close friends to this day – something that made Lee raise his eyebrows during the interview.

Saffold often goes Live on Instagram to discuss her feelings with the world, and this past weekend, she did just that to spill some tea about her unconventional relationship with her past lesbian lover, who’s been making moves on Karlissa’s husband, according to the reality star. Elsewhere during the stream, the 51-year-old admitted to feeling some type of way about her friend stopping by Chrisean Rock’s to see Junior without her, despite them not being blood relatives.

Karlissa Saffold Feels Betrayed by Those Closest To Her

“I move well around snakes if y’all haven’t noticed,” Saffold told viewers in the video above. “Yeah, she did see my grandbaby today, and she been knowing that I been trying to see my grandbaby but she snuck her a** over there and saw my grandbaby like she snuck around with one of my ni**as before. She’s a sneaky a** rat, that’s for sure. She’ll never get another nothing from me again in life.”

While Karlissa Saffold is using social media to speak her truth, her son, Blueface looks to be following in her footsteps as we move into a new month. The father of three was feeling serious concern for his youngest, Junior, at 4 AM upon discovering that his mom, Chrisean Rock was seemingly at the studio or with another man, leaving the infant in a friend’s care.

Is Ashanti Pregnant? Nelly Belly Rubbing Video Has Social Media Speculating

Valentine’s Day is still a few months off, but romance is obviously in the air all around us – or at least sexual tension. There have been many celebrity pregnancy announcements this year, with 20-year-old Bhad Bhabie being the latest lyricist to confirm she’s got a bun in the oven with her beau. Just days after that news broke the internet, some are speculating that Nelly and Ashanti may also be starting a family, though we’re still awaiting official confirmation from the happy couple.

The rumours began over the weekend when the R&B icons once again came together on the stage, once again perfectly coordinating their outfits. Nelly looked ever the gentleman in his all-black suit, meanwhile, Ashanti’s curves caught plenty of eyes as she entertained the audience in her little black dress with midsection cutouts and a seriously racy leg slit. Her dress notably has a large silver embellishment on the front, which the “Hot In Herre” hitmaker happily put his hands on – a move some took as indicating that a baby is on board, or at least in their plans.

A post shared by The Neighborhood Talk (@theneighborhoodtalk)

In the video above, nearly everyone in the room reacts in shock and excitement after watching Nelly hint at having a child with his lover. As is always the case when he’s in her company, the 49-year-old couldn’t stop smiling. It’s currently unclear if he and Ashanti plan to tie the knot before welcoming a baby, or if they’re simply having fun trolling the internet by feeding into the rumours. Regardless, we’ll be sure to fill you in on more information as it comes.

For the most part, the internet is a big fan of Nelly and Ashanti’s decision to reconcile. Of course, there will always be haters with negative opinions, and Tasha K certainly hasn’t been holding hers back.

Blueface & Chrisean Rock’s Parenting Tactics Cause Drama, He “Rescues” Junior At 4 AM: Watch

Once again, the women in Blueface’s life are leaving him with one mess after another to clean up. To start, his mother, Karlissa Saffold, has been making concerning comments about her son’s alleged adult video preferences, which have only furthered the rift between her and Jaidyn Alexis. Elsewhere, Chrisean Rock’s parenting tactics have been leaving Blue befuddled since she gave birth on Instagram Live in September. Though he initially denied paternity of little Junior, the “Thotiana” rapper was on social media this past weekend, showing the world that he’s stepping up as a father where Rock has seemingly been lacking.

“My son ain’t got no parent at four in the morning,” Blue said on his Story recently while holding the young boy in the middle of a parking lot. “Nobody wanna watch him. She got merks watching the baby at four in the morning,” the 26-year-old ranted, turning the camera over to someone Rock seemingly hired to watch her infant. “So she can what, get some d**k? Do a verse? F**k a ni**a?” he further speculated what the Baddies cast member might be doing at this hour.

“All this so you can do a verse? Suck some d**k?” he asked again before that video ends. On the next slide, Blue continued to expose his ex, putting the camera in Rock’s friend’s face before threatening her with a beating from Jaidyn Alexis. “Close the door, let’s go merk. You gon’ get your a** whooped as soon as we get there,” the Californian declared.

In recent weeks, we’ve still heard Chrisean Rock expressing her interest in reconciling with Blueface, though she’s also got a fling brewing with a rising artist named K Suave. At the end of November, the new mom and her latest beau were posted up in the club during a makeout sesh that left her smiling from ear to ear.

Blueface’s Mom Karlissa Saffold Dishes On His Alleged Adult Video Preferences

As much as we’d like to see Blueface and his mother, Karlissa Saffold, resolve their issues soon, the duo seems to be continuously going in circles as he attempts to distance himself from her. On their various reality shows, we’ve seen just how messy things can get in the rapper’s family home, and the Porter matriarch has no problem publicly dissing both of Blue’s baby mamas. Besides telling us secrets about Chrisean Rock and Jaidyn Alexis, Saffold also spills tea about her 26-year-old son – including about his alleged adult video preferences.

“My son say he jack off to the people that look like his mama,” Saffold claimed while going Live on Instagram this weekend. “He say he like the ebony b**ches, I can’t make this s**t up. I don’t give a f**k how much wine she give me, I can’t make this up. I seen it girl,” she drunkenly ranted before revealing how Alexis allegedly reacted to the situation. “She got mad when he said he like ebony. B**ch, your baby ebony,” Karlissa pointed out to her viewers.

She might get a little chocolate this summer, you can’t be mad at what your man like. S**t, my man like them jet Black, I ain’t mad,” she went on, bringing her husband into the messy conversation.

For the most part, Blueface has been relatively quiet on social media in recent days. However, the “Thotiana” rapper’s mother has been making up for his absence with her regular IG Live sessions, many of which focus on spilling tea about him and his loved ones. Read what Karlissa Saffold had to say to Jaidyn Alexis’ mom this past week at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Tristan Thompson’s Cheating Causes Serious On-Screen Tension With Khloe Kardashian: Watch

Khloe Kardashian has been more than forgiving with her baby daddy, Tristan Thompson, considering all that he’s put her through. Still, the mother of two hasn’t fully welcomed the Canadian back into her heart, despite their attempts at peacefully co-parenting True and Tatum together. On a new episode of her family’s Hulu reality series, Kardashian and Thompson came together to discuss his poor treatment of her – a frequent topic this season.

We previously saw Thompson’s grilling from big sister, Kourtney, as well as his apology to Kylie Jenner for kissing her former best friend, Jordyn Woods. Now, when speaking to the Good American founder, the NBA player was candid about how many men are ignorant of the gifts before them until it’s too late in life. “Sometimes for men, they don’t realize until they’re 40 or 50 when their train is already gone. Hopefully, my train hasn’t left,” Tristan said to Khloe in the clip below. “It’s easier to sit in your own s**t than get out your s**t and wipe yourself off,” he added.

Tristan Thompson’s Comments on The Kardashians Bring Backlash

The reality starlet’s response made it evident she’s not feeling the way the 32-year-old is handling things. “I absolutely hate your analogies,” she said while rolling her eyes. Elsewhere, in a confessional, Kardashian vented, “These random one-liners… that have nothing to do with the situation at hand,” making her distaste for his behaviour abundantly clear.

Tristan Thompson continuously remains determined to make things work with his second baby mama, Khloe Kardashian in the future. Interestingly, he still hasn’t fully accepted responsibility for getting Maralee Nichols pregnant and welcoming a son with her. Theo’s second birthday was earlier this month. While Thompson didn’t seem to acknowledge the special occasion, the young boy’s mother was sure he felt the love. See her sweet post dedicated to Thompson’s son at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Yo Gotti Performs “Down In The DM,” Angela Simmons Reminds Us She’s His Forever Crush

Angela Simmons and Yo Gotti have known one another long before they united as the power couple standing before us today, but that doesn’t mean the CMG boss’ feelings for his other half have diminished. If anything, they’ve only grown stronger as he continues to incorporate her in virtually everything he does. Even before they were dating, Gotti made his love for the footwear designer known on his famous “Down In The DM” single, which remains a fan favourite to this day. As they move into the next year of their relationship, the Southern star felt it was about time to have his other half join him on stage for a performance.

Earlier this week, the “Pose” hitmaker was entertaining the crowd on his Gangsta Art tour, looking more confident than ever in a bright red ensemble. While spitting the catchy lyrics to his 2016 track, Simmons slowly rose from underground on a platform, everyone watching on erupting in applause. “I got a crush on Angela Simmons,” Gotti raps, his partner in crime looking as fiery as him in a cherry-coloured skin-tight dress.

“Still ❤,” the 42-year-old wrote in his caption when sharing the moment with social media. He hasn’t dropped any hints at proposing to Simmons just yet, though we’d be more than happy to see the lovers take their relationship to the next step in 2024. As the fashion icon continues to grow into herself amid a health and fitness journey, Gotti is proudly supporting her while letting his light shine too.

Yo Gotti and Angela Simmons first crossed paths long before becoming the superstar duo we know today. Since finally confirming their relationship with fans, we’ve only seen them fall further in love with each other – a trend we hope to see continue in the new year.

“For The Love Of Lena”: Crip Mac Talks Past Lovers & Going To Jail With Lena The Plug

Adam22 faced a ton of backlash for permitting his wife, Lena The Plug to film a sex tape with Blacked actor Jason Luv earlier this year. Granted, the married couple has long been letting other people into the bedroom with them, and with the cameras on too, but this marked the black-haired beauty’s first scene of this magnitude, and boy did she feel the repercussions. Thankfully, neither Lena nor her man cares much about what outsiders have to say about their marriage, which is why they were proud to announce their wild new reality series earlier this fall, exclusively on No Jumper.

On For the Love of Lena, a group of male contestants come together while vying for a chance at a threesome with the mother of one. So far, four episodes have landed on YouTube, and in all of them, Crip Mac’s antics have kept us laughing. We’ve seen plenty of the internet personality on Adam22’s podcast, but watching him do his best to charm the adult actress with some unusual tactics only has more people joining his fanbase.

Spotify Wrapped: Lil Durk Angers User By Taking Over Her Round-Up Despite Not Streaming Him

Lil Durk’s distinct sound isn’t for everyone, but those who love the Chicago native consistently go hard for him. Unfortunately, amid Spotify Wrapped season, the 7220 artist is facing accusations of using streaming farms to boost his numbers after an angry content creator revealed that he completely took over her annual round-up despite her never personally listening to his music from her account. “I am literally so mad right now,” the young woman ranted while sitting in her car.

“Whoever hacked into my Spotify account and listened to Lil Durk for 21,000 f**king hours this year, I hope you rot,” she continued, moving closer to the camera as her rage builds. “You have ruined my entire life!” According to her story, she woke up earlier this week eager to reflect on her year in music but was sadly disappointed when the results didn’t match her expectations. “All I listen to is like, Noah Kahn, and like, Taylor Swift, Just some cute granola stuff with a little bit of SZA sprinkled in there,” the OP explained her usual taste.

Lil Durk Comes Through with a Christmas Surprise

Through tears, she continues, “I wake up this morning to all my top songs, and my only artist being Lil f**king Durk!” At the top of the list is “All My Life” featuring J. Cole, followed by more new titles from the 31-year-old’s Almost Healed album. “I thought I logged into the wrong account like I don’t know. This is not me!” Now that the clip is circulating on social media, others are sharing their similar experiences after allegedly having “some dude in Ukraine” taking over their profile.

Lil Durk may have made several non-consensual appearances on the playlists of Spotify users in 2023, but he still couldn’t top the numbers done by Drake. Thanks to the release of his For All The Dogs album, not to mention his It’s All A Blur Tour, the 6ix God racked up over 11 billion streams on the streaming platform alone.
