Republican Candidate Vivek Ramaswamy Addresses Eminem’s Cease And Desist

The long-running history of artists asking politicians to stop using their music during their campaigns continues. Recently, 2024 Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy and Eminem are the latest pairing to join the list. It all began when the 38-year-old went viral earlier this month from performing Eminem’s classic song “Lose Yourself” at the Iowa State Fair. After seeing the clip of Vivek the Michigan rap megastar did not take too kindly to him performing it. The history of Em’s distaste for the Republican political party goes back years.

This is especially true when former President Donald Trump was running for office. Eminem said enough is enough as he decided to get in touch with BMI (Broadcast Music, Inc.) with a request to prevent Ramaswamy from using his music in the future. BMI followed through as they sent a cease and desist letter to the potential future president making him aware to never use a single melody from the icon’s discography. “BMI will consider any performance of the Eminem Works by the Vivek 2024 campaign from this date forward to be a material breach of the Agreement for which BMI reserves all rights and remedies with respect thereto.”

Vivek Ramaswamy Responds: Watch

Fast forward to August 29, Vivek joined MSNBC for a one-on-one interview. They discussed a host of topics, including the Eminem cease and desist request. Ramaswamy agreed to let bygones be bygones, but he added a little extra to his response. “I’ll respect his wishes but I would just say will the ‘Real Slim Shady’ please stand up?” He goes on, “Eminem and his rise used to be a guy who actually stood up to the establishment and said the things the establishment didn’t want him to say.” Vivek then ended his response with well wishes for Eminem, “But I have hope for him that he will one day rediscover the ‘Renegade’ that made him great and I’m rooting for that success in his life.” Maybe Eminem will write a diss track back?

What are your initial thoughts on this response to Eminem from Republican Vivek Ramaswamy? Do you think Eminem was right to send a cease and desist towards Ramaswamy? Or, are you on the politician’s side? We want to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave all of your thoughts and opinions in the comments section below.

Armand Hammer Teams Up With JPEGMAFIA For “Woke Up And Asked Siri How I’m Gonna Die”

Armand Hammer is a rap duo that consists of high-level lyricists billy woods and E L U C I D. Billy heralds from Washington D.C. while E L U C I D is from Jamaica, Queens, New York. Both are no strangers to each other, as the two of them joined forces in 2013. Together they formed their own rap duo called Armand Hammer. They are well-known in the underground scene floating on top of some pretty experimental production. So naturally, they brought on JPEGMAFIA for the production of their new single called, “Armand Hammer Teams Up With JPEGMAFIA For “Woke Up And Asked Siri How I’m Gonna Die.”

It is an interesting title for sure, but that like we said is nothing out of the ordinary for any three of these artists. This single will be a part of their next LP, We Buy Diabetic Test Strips. The album is expected to be released on September 29, 2023, on all streaming platforms. Genius has the tracklist at 15 songs, so when it drops we will be here to cover it.

Armand Hammer Eat Up The Beat

Both billy woods and E L U C I D ride the production very nicely. The atmosphere from the beginning is a little eerie. However, it mellows out allowing for the lyrics to shine from Armand Hammer.Life’s a trip, if you live long enough you gon’ see it all / Life’s a blip, I flew in under the radar / Beat up spaceships, sliding under the light of a dead star / Still made my shift, appropriately lit for the graveyard.” JPEG continues to add his toolbelt with another great effort on the beat.

What are your initial thoughts on this brand new single from E L U C I D, billy woods, JPEGMAFIA, “Woke Up and Asked Siri How I’m Gonna Die?” Who has the best verse on the song, billy or E L U C I D? Is JPEGMAFIA one of the best producers in modern hip-hop? We want to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave all of your thoughts and opinions in the comments section below.

Quotable Lyrics:

Marbled steak, put it back in the case so it can age more
Patient carnivore, ate ’til my jaw ached
Wait for her to say I can have it raw
Wild dogs, fresh wounds and old scars
Wild cards pulled out the deck as if the game weren’t already hard

JT’s Booty Shaking Antics At Solange’s Party Prove She’s Always In City Girl Mode

Before summer 2023 officially began, JT and Yung Miami declared alongside Diddy and Fabolous that it was about to be a season of “acting bad.” There has undeniably been plenty of criminal activity taking place in the celebrity world, though that’s likely not the kind of trouble the City Girls were encouraging others to get into. Rather, Caresha and Jativia have been pouring their energy into partying with friends, hitting up the mall, bragging about having “good pu**y,” and of course, twerking.

On Tuesday (August 28), a video of JT shaking her booty (once again) hit the internet. While it’s nothing new to see the “Ex For A Reason” throwing it back by herself or alongside Miami, this time around fans were surprised to see her twerking with Solange Knowles. In the video below, Beyonce’s younger sister hypes up with City Girl’s ability to make her behind move like water, even in a designer dress.

It seems the two women came together, along with other famous friends, to celebrate Solange’s new glassware collection. The 37-year-old’s mother, Tina Lawson was also in attendance and didn’t hold back when showing off her dance moves. “I love nothing better than dancing with my baby girl @solangeknowles. Last night at her new beautiful glassware party!” the family matriarch wrote on IG. “It was at the home of the amazing Black pioneering architect Paul R. Williams. A house is not home.”

As another summer comes to a close, it looks as though JT has found the perfect balance between work and play. Sure, she’s found time to hit the mall with Yung Miami and show off her twerking for Solange, but the Florida native has also been putting in work on her recently announced clothing project, as well as collaborations with Kali Uchis and Stunna Girl.

ScHoolboy Q Is Gearing Up For Exciting New Music Soon

Los Angeles, California’s own ScHoolboy Q has left fans starving for new material ever since CrasH Talk back in 2019. The only solo music we have from Q is the 2022 single “Soccer Dad” in 2022. A fun but hard-hitting track featuring a cool drum loop and sample, it is the rapper at his finest. Unfortunately, we have not heard much from the “Collard Greens” artist. That is until recently, over the past couple of months.

Back in June, Q and his team put out some updates on a new album coming, “very very soon,” and shortly after that, a video clip began to circle on Twitter. It features the likes of labelmates Ab-SoulIsaiah Rashad and SiR going berzerk behind the turntables to the new unreleased music. It sounds fantastic and we hope to hear it in the form of a single or on the forthcoming record. Fast forward a couple of weeks, and ScHoolboy Q is teasing his fans relentlessly once again.

An Instagram account hiphop.talk, posted a short video clip highlighting how underrated the California rapper’s discography is. The caption says, “Do NOT sleep on ScHoolboy Q‼ One of the best/ my fav rappers of this generation 🔥🙏” Q responded in the comments, replying with, “WatcH How I come tHis year ✊🏾” It seems to be only a short matter of time before we finally hear him on the mic again. Hopefully that is the case so we can bring it you first.

What are your initial thoughts on these two videos surrounding ScHoolboy Q? Do you agree with the Instagram post that he is underrated? How does the new music from Q sound in the Twitter clip? We want to hear what you have to say, so leave all of your thoughts and opinions in the comments section below.

Britney Spears’ “Milkshake” Brings Plies To The Yard: “Look At My Lil Hot Cheeto”

Whenever Britney Spears posts a new dancing video (there have been many as of late as she works through her divorce from Sam Asghari), social media users instantly begin waiting for Plies’ reaction. Even before the pop superstar’s single status was reinstated, the Florida-born rapper has been hyping up her salacious posts with regular content of his own, bestowing nicknames such as “White Diamond” and “Little Hot Cheeto” upon Spears. In arguably one of her most scandalous posts yet, the mother of two bared most of her chest while grooving along to Kelis’ “Milkshake” over the weekend.

On Monday (August 28), Plies shared his thoughts on the blonde beauty’s choreography. “🤣🤣🤣🤣 Look At My Little Cheetah 🐆 My Lil Hot Cheeto 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 (I Went An Got A Milkshake Just To Watch Dis)🤣🤣,” the “Heart Mind” hitmaker wrote in his caption. Clearly, he was impressed by Spears’ revealing animal print outfit. Of course, that’s not the only thing that brought a smile to Plies’ face as he watched.

“Here she go, she got no top on,” the father of one giddily explains while showing Brit’s post. “I’m with you, baby. Let me smell you, Brit,” he excitedly continues as the blonde beauty sniffs her own finger amid her dance routine. “Look at my lil cheeto,” Plies adds before leaning in and purring to make his eagerness known. “Make that booty shake,” he encourages his new favourite girl before lifting up his own ice cream treat.

Plies’ reaction videos to his “White Diamond” Britney Spears’ dancing have been bringing plenty of positive attention his way. However, other topics discussed on the 47-year-old’s platform haven’t been welcomed as warmly. Earlier this week, P was criticized for sharing his thoughts on how women’s sexual expression seems to change as they age.

SZA And Summer Walker Have A Twerk Showdown

The hip-hop and R&B community knows SZA and Summer Walker very well for many reasons. Their most apparent traits are their incredible singing voices and ability to hop on a track and rap, and they both have provided some great projects. However, there is one more key element to both of their high status in music, and that is their beauty. Fans and other celebrities have been fawning over SZA and Summer Walker for years now. For example, SZA continues to thirst-trap her social media followers, especially on Instagram.

Her photo dumps cause a lot of buzz and for good reason, she is naturally beautiful. On the other hand, Summer Walker also has a respectable IG account. While she might not be revealing as much as “The Weekend” artist has, the R&B star is always in and out of relationships. Both sought-after singers are massive on the platform. Summer currently sits at 5.9 million followers, while SZA is at a staggering 17.5 million. Now, with this new video that was leaked to Instagram, those follower counts will increase immensely.

The two singers seem to be traveling somewhere together, possibly for new music? We sure hope that is the case, especially with their hit song “No Love” continuing to rack up streams with over 196 million on Spotify. Speculation aside, SZA and Summer Walker square off for a twerk showdown behind a building. SZA does it the longest while Summer goes for maybe a second or two. Some of the fans in the comments section were thirsting, with one saying “SZA Walker❤❤❤🔥🔥😍😍😍” Who do you think won this competition?

Saucy Santana Brings Big Energy To The Club After Storming Out During Erica Mena’s Arrest: Video

Prior to social media, celebrities had a lot more freedom. Now, anyone in the spotlight is constantly subject to being photographed or recorded, and potentially exposed on social media. It’s made infidelity far more difficult and has certainly added plenty of stress to nights out at the club. Saucy Santana experienced an uncomfortable situation this past weekend. He went out with his boyfriend, ZellSwag, as well as Bambi Benson and Erica Mena of Love & Hip-Hop fame. According to the “Booty” rapper’s retelling of events, the latter of the two reality starlets got far too drunk. She eventually began tussling with security attempting to calm her down.

Rather than stick around to witness the situation, the 29-year-old quickly fled the scene of the crime – as caught in a hilarious video circulating online. “I got the f**k out of dodge ‘cuz I don’t play that,” Santana told his followers on IG. His Friday (August 25) night shenanigans may have ended early. Still, that didn’t stop the Connecticut-born performer from heading out and bringing big energy to another venue later on in his weekend.

Saucy Santana Had One Wild AF Weekend

In a video that appears to have been taken on Saturday, Santana dances and smiles while entering a nightclub to celebrate someone’s birthday. The bottle girls surrounding the RCA Records artist were grinning ear to ear as he hyped them up. Clearly, the dancer was in a far better mood than he was when Mena, Benson, and his man began getting physical with security on their evening out.

Outside of all the drama with his boyfriend and the women of Love & Hip-Hop, Saucy Santana is also in the news today for supporting an up-and-coming artist. Blueface’s first baby mama, Jaidyn Alexis, caught the XXL Freshman’s attention with her latest single.

Quavo Shares New Music Video For “11:11”

Quavo’s highly-anticipated new album Rocket Power was released a few weeks ago and fans have been eating it up. The project featured notable verses from Takeoff, Future, Young Thug, and more. Tracks like “Patty Cake” and “Focused” are emerging as potential hits already. Though the track “Turn Yo Clic Up” with Future was released alongside an accompanying music video earlier this year, the Rocket Power era has become rich with visuals in the past two weeks. “Hold Me” and “Disciples” already got their own music videos since the album dropped and now yet another track has its accompanying visuals.

“11:11” is a song that pops up on the second half of Rocket Power and it’s already racked up over 2 million streams on Spotify. The video is rapidly rising in popularity too generating over 40k views in less than two hours. In the video, Quavo is hanging out in a forest showing off a sleek-looking SUV while rattling off the lyrics to the song. The video also features a number of flashy visual effects with the rapper phasing in and out of the scenes with glitchy flashes. Fans in the comments continued to hype up the former Migos rapper’s talent. “Another 1!!The man never disappoints. Those lyrics hit hard,” reads the top comment under the video. Check out the entire music video below.

Quavo Hits The Forest For “11:11” Video

Quavo’s new album Rocket Power sold 32k units in its first tracking week. Consequently that was good enough to place the album in the top 20 of the Billboard 200 at number #18. It’s a big of a step back for the rapper after his debut solo album and his collaborative project with Takeoff last year both debuted in the top 10.

Quavo’s former Migos collaborator Takeoff was tragically murdered last year. Two posthumous verses from the rapper appeared on Rocket Power on the tracks “Patty Cake” and “Back Where It Begins.” What do you think of Quavo’s newest music video? Let us know in the comment section below.

Sexyy Red Turns Up At Her First Ever Frat Party

Sexyy Red is experiencing a lot of firsts in 2023. The breakout rap star is making plenty of connections to big-time artists. Later this year she’s set to embark on her first ever headlining tour. The Hood Hottest Princess tour hits the road in late October and sees the star playing 22 dates. That will come after she finishes serving as the opening act on one of the biggest tours of 2023. Drake and 21 Savage’s “It’s All A Blur” tour has been making waves all summer and earlier this month Red was named the opener for all remaining shows.

One first that Sexyy Red probably didn’t expect to happen this year was her first-ever frat party. In a clip posted over the weekend, the rapper gets taken for her very first party of the like and she enjoys some staple activities while there. The video sees Red playing beer pong, watching a keg stand, and doing plenty of dancing. It also features a clip of her being gifted a Cartier bracelet, which she seems genuinely thankful for. Check out the full video below.

Rubi Rose Admits To Photoshopping Photos, Claims “Almost All” Girls Do The Same

As technology becomes increasingly advanced, it’s easier than ever for internet users to alter their images with platforms like FaceApp or Photoshop. While it’s not unreasonable to remove distracting objects from the background or brighten a smile here and there, the lengths that some go to to enhance their looks is extreme. Some celebrities have been caught up in embarrassing editing blunders over the years, but others have an extreme talent for subtly switching up seemingly minute details on their body or face. Among the latter category is Rubi Rose, who recently confirmed that she does make changes to her selfies every now and then.

“I photoshop my pictures,” the Kentucky native admitted on Big Facts Pod. “I tell people that too, so maybe that might throw them off sometimes,” Rose further explained. According to her, “almost all girls” make edits to the content they post online in some capacity. Unsurprisingly, a lot of women are disputing her message in @thejasminebrand’s comment section.

Rubi Rose Reveals Some of Her IG Uploads Are Altered

“Chile the average girl doesn’t know how to Photoshop lol,” one person wrote. “Don’t put us in it.” Elsewhere, others argued that using the popular filters available on platforms like TikTok and IG are no different than professionally editing your appearance on the Adobe platform. “She’s right, using a filter is a type of Photoshop,” another user chimed in. “It’s okay, magazines have been doing it for decades,” they pointed out.

Though she admits to enhancing her photos when she feels they need it, Rubi Rose has never been one to concern herself with the larger risks and commitments that come with plastic surgery. Instead, she constantly reminds us that her slim thick body is “natural asf” in her never-ending thirst traps. See some of her spiciest summer thirst traps at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.
