She’s been beasting her way through Hip Hop, and fans believe Lola Brooke is next in line. If you’ve been tuned into TikTok, you would already know that the Brooklyn spitter’s “Don’t Play With It” featuring Billy B is already a viral success. Lola has been strategically edging her way into the spotlight with the help of her dedicated team. Her talents haven’t been ignored by her peers, and the praise has also rolled in. Brooke has even added a few bars to the updated version of Hitkidd’s favorite “Shabooya” and recently tore up the stage at SXSW.

As her star continues to shine, Lola Brooke may be chopping and screwing her “Don’t Play With It” hit. A clip of the pint-sized rapper filming a music video has made the rounds, and it looks as if she’s linked with Yung Miami and Latto. In the brief video, the ladies perform for cameras, surrounded by extras. Only the end of the City Girls rapper’s verse is heard, but Lola and Latto are nearby. Fans are excited about what the remix will bring.

Lola Brooke Gets Co-Sign From Kim Kardashian & North West

Kim Kardashian and North West’s TikToks have been the talk of pop culture, and last year, they gave Lola Brooke and significant co-sign. Kim is seen trying to style North’s baby hair in a video. As she struggled, the pre-teen rapped along with Brooke’s “DPWI” track. We caught up with Lola in December and asked her what it was like to see the clip. The rapper admitted that she was stunned when she first found out and had difficulty saying anything.

“I was around people when I first found out, I had just left the venue. I did a hosting in New Jersey. And my fans were tagging me, and I watched it, and I remember sitting in the car with everybody talking to me, but I couldn’t hear them. I just was zoned out,” Lola said. “And they was like, “Yo what’s up with you? You not excited?” I kept saying, I wish I was home so that I could have this moment to myself in my head because I was going crazy.” Initially, she thought it was fake and someone was playing a joke. Nope, this is real, Lola Brooke. Swipe above to see more from Lola, Latto, and Yung Miami.

Method Man Has Sage Advice For Yung Miami Amid “BMF” Criticism: “F*ck People”

by

She’s expanding her career beyond topping the charts, but Yung Miami has been criticized for her acting. The City Girls star recently appeared in BMF, and while she was excited about the feature, the public used the moment to troll the rapper. There were jokes about her delivery, and one person even said it was funny. To that, Miami told them it wasn’t supposed to be. It isn’t easy moving from the studio to the small screen, and it’s something that other Rap stars have attempted. Few, like Method Man, have developed successful acting careers, so it’s fitting that he has advice for Yung Miami as she moves forward.

The Wu-Tang icon has added to his acting résumé since the mid-1990s, and these days, you’ll find him on set more often than in the booth. The Power star was recently spotted by TMZ and was asked about the criticism Yung Miami was receiving. “F*ck people. People are mean,” he told the cameraperson. “White noise, white noise.” He then dropped off a compliment. “I love the City Girls, they’re dope.”

Method Man Knows The Business

In February 2022, Essence called on Meth for their cover feature. During their interview with the Rap icon, he discussed how the change in Hip Hop pushed him toward exploring new avenues. “The higher-ups, the so-called gatekeepers, didn’t have much use for a 44-year-old rapper,” said Meth. “I guess my background turned some people off. Some people aren’t willing to give you a chance, especially when you’ve already had one and you kind of squandered it.”

“There was a changing of the guard in hip-hop. I was cool with that.” This doesn’t necessarily mean Method Man is out of the Rap game, but he’s nurturing his other creative pursuits. “I had to evolve with the business, and if that meant acting, so be it. I was going to throw all my eggs in one basket.”

Yung Miami Is Jumping Into New Things

Meanwhile, Yung Miami is back in her “S-I-N-G-L-E” City girls mode, or so she said while working on projects outside of Rap. We saw her shine on Caresha Please, her Revolt podcast, where she sat down with her peers. The show was a success and caused several viral hot takes to circulate online, and it’s expected that her acting career will flourish. Check out more from Method Man above.

Yung Miami Supports Chrisean Rock Amid Twitter Beef With Blueface

by

Chrisean Rock and Blueface are at it again, airing out their drama for the world to see on social media. The couple started this year off on a rocky note, with the 23-year-old announcing that she’s pregnant, and her beau just as quickly denying paternity. In the weeks since then, their on-again-off-again dynamic has continued, leaving fans confused about their official relationship status.

On Sunday (March 12), an intense Twitter spat broke up between the Crazy In Love stars, as Blueface chiefly dissed Rock’s appearance, among other things. “She pregnant, missing a tooth with seven tattoos,” he told his followers this past weekend. “Finna make a fool of herself with the next n*gga. I’m not pregnant at all, finna live my life perfectly fine with the next bitch who gone take me even more serious. It’s really tragic fr.”

Blueface and Chrisean’s Heated Exchange

On her account, the Baltimore native shared some thoughts of her own. “[I don’t] regret anything about myself, so honestly, tryna put me down is a low blow coming for a man that [knows] he loves me,” she responded to the “Thotiana” rapper in one post. “I take you serious,” Rock added in another. “You just hate me [right now]. I don’t need the next n*gga I got myself.”

In another post, Blueface threw more shade at his alleged baby mama, writing, “N*gga don’t care about how no boof bitch feel lmao. Take that take that.” In response to this, Chrisean told the 26-year-old that she wasn’t feeling anything, but rather, is watching him pop off on social media. “Idgaf honestly,” she told followers on Sunday. “Can’t care [too] much, gotta be careful.”

Yung Miami Sends Love to Rock

On Monday (March 13), a celebrity friend of the Baddies cast member, Yung Miami, made sure to show some love to Chrisean Rock. The expecting mother had recently tweeted, “Don’t feel bad for me. Ima shake dis off fr. Plus I’m grown, I did this to myself.” It certainly sounds as though she’s beginning to take accountability for her actions, leaving many fans feeling proud of the “Lit” rapper. When Caresha Brownlee saw her gal pal’s post, she responded, “You’re beautiful and FULL OF LIFE!” earning a retweet.

Yung Miami Was A Good Sport In Response To Fans Who Had Jokes About Her Recent ‘BMF’ Appearance

Yung Miami, or Caresha, as everyone on the internet refers to her, is living her best life. The rapper is taking advantage of every professional opportunity that comes her way, especially considering her aspirations to be the next Oprah Winfrey. Whether she’s in the studio working on new music as part of the rap duo City Girls, hosting her podcast Caresha Please, or starring on the small screen, despite what she raps in her songs, Miami keeps a steady job.

However, the recording artist’s latest appearance on 50 Cent’s Starz original series, BMF, was not received so well. In fact, her brief onscreen cameo led to a flurry of memes. Playing a wife who just received news of her husband’s tragic murder, the entertainer tried her best to step into the emotional moment, but it wasn’t quite an Emmy-winning portrayal.

Despite being the butt of every joke on Twitter from the viewing audience, Yung Miami handled it well. Joined in on the online conversation to post her line, “Meech, where’s my husband?”

She even reposted a few reenactments with the caption, “Man, I’m crying.”

Later, Yung Miami tried to be serious, writing, “If I’m crying, why y’all laughing??? Y’all play too much,” but it didn’t last for long, as she followed that tweet up with, “Funniest part,” in response to a fan’s message.

Yung Miami Responds To “BMF” Backlash On Twitter As Trolls Clown Her Performance

by

She’s best known as one-half of the City Girls, but that doesn’t mean Yung Miami doesn’t have other aspirations outside of becoming a rap icon. Most recently she’s been pouring her energy into several different avenues. Among them are her upcoming music releases alongside JT, her Caresha Please podcast, and finally, her acting career. The Florida-born performer first showed up in Netflix’s You People. She’s since gone on to have two noteworthy TV stints as well.

Kenya Barris’ Grown-ish series hired the mother of two to play Ms. It in one episode of their fourth season. Elsewhere, 50 Cent brought Miami onto the BMF cast alongside names like Lil Meech, Kash Doll, and La La Anthony. Her appearance in season two aired on Thursday (March 9) night. It obviously left plenty of viewers upset – according to Twitter, anyway.

Caresha Brownlee, Aspiring Actress

Users haven’t been biting their tongues about the 29-year-old’s performance, some of them dubbing it “the worst acting” that they’ve ever seen. In her brief scene with Meech, Miami slaps him after hearing the bad news that her own partner has been shot. As some social media users pointed out, this is similar to the “Twerkulator” artist’s real-life situation with one of her children’s fathers, who previously lost his life.

Unfortunately, Caresha’s acting wasn’t giving the emotions that BMF fans wanted. Many were quick to criticize her for looking as though she wanted to laugh during the serious moment onscreen. As the trolls continue to clown her, the recording artist didn’t hesitate to clap back at this on Friday (March 10) afternoon. “If I’m crying why y’all laughing??? Y’all play [too] much,” she wrote.

Miami is Tired of the Trolls

In other posts, Miami showed love to those supporting her venture into acting. “So today y’all hating on @yungmiami305? She went from scamming, finessing, etc. to rapping, talk show hosting, and acting… Now y’all mad? Damned if you do, damned if you don’t!” one enthusiastic fan wrote.

“I love to see [people] win in life, elevate, and give their family the [world]!” their sweet message concluded. In response, the City Girl said, “The more they hate, the more opportunities come!! It’s only the beginning for me!” Read more Twitter reactions to Yung Miami’s BMF performance here, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Yung Miami’s “BMF” Debut Is “The Worst Acting” Some Twitter Users Have “Ever Seen”

by

Yung Miami and JT have only been making music together as City Girls since the late 2010s. Already, the duo has achieved so many major milestones both together and apart. For her part, Caresha Brownlee has dabbled in several avenues outside of rapping, including modelling, acting, and hosting her own REVOLT podcast. Jatavia Johnson, of course, was previously involved in scamming, for which she served time. She now pours her energy into creative outlets like fashion and writing lyrics.

For their most recent performance together, the City Girls joined forces at Rolling Loud California. During their set, they performed plenty of old favourites, also previewing their next drop, “Piñata.” It’s been receiving favourable reactions on social media so far, as have both Miami and JT’s feather-covered ensembles.

BMF Isn’t the Only Performing Caresha’s Been Doing

Their time on stage went off without a hitch. Sadly, the rap divas didn’t have as much luck during their interviews at the festival. While speaking with 28-year-old Tamera Kissen, the City Girls were bombarded with uncomfortable questions about their sex life. Yung Miami managed to keep a smile on her face for the most part, though JT’s shocked expression was far less contained.

Being back in performance mode was undeniably exciting for the partners in rhyme, but this weekend, Caresha put her acting cap on to make her debut on 50 Cent’s BMF series. She has previous acting experience from appearing in Netflix’s You People and Kenya Barris’ Grown-ish, so many were hoping to be impressed by her work. Unfortunately, the reactions pouring in seem to be the opposite, with multiple viewers dubbing it the “worst acting” they’ve ever seen.

Viewers React to Miami’s Acting

“I hope Yung Miami stick to making music bruh, this really the worst acting I ever seen in my life,” one person wrote after seeing the City Girl slap Lil Meech. “Please give actors/actresses the chance to be on this show. No more guest star rappers that can’t act. We already let it slide with bad acting Lala but that Yung Miami shit is not it,” someone else urged the hit show’s producers.

Amid all the hate, the mother of two managed to find a positive comment which she replied to early Friday (March 10) morning. “Caresha did great for her first time acting and especially playing a role that had a similar situation in her life. That’s hard to do,” they praised her. “Thank you SD,” she wrote back.

As Miami gets down to SZA’s music, fans are flooding her social media comments with praise and affection.

SZA herself has a huge fan base that includes many other celebrities. While she has always been popular, the release of her latest album has boosted her popularity immensely. However, now she is receiving support from not just her fans, but from her peers as well. Additionally, Yung Miami is not alone in the crowd. The video starts by showing her dancing but cuts to several other people singing along to the music. The atmosphere is full of excitement, and support. The crowd is singing along to the hit song “Blind.” Miami is seen wearing a two-piece dress and jewelry.

Yung Miami Turns Up At SZA’s Show

As seen in the video, Yung Miami is clearly in her element. She is grooving to the music and enjoying the fan just like any other fan does. Furthermore, people continue to praise Yung Miami for her carefree attitude despite her high level of fame. It is heartening to see a successful artist such as Miami enjoying the music of another artist without a hint of ego or rivalry. The City Girls star also took to twitter to announce that she has intentions of singing along to SZA’s show the day before the concert.

As the City Girls continue to dominate the hip-hop scene, it’s clear that Yung Miami’s star power is only getting stronger. Her infectious energy and love for music are winning over fans across the globe. It’s the moments like her dancing with abandon at SZA’s concert that reminds everyone why they fell in love with her in the first place. Apart from her attitude, fans are also taking the time to remind her how good she looks at her appearance at the Atlanta show.

Yung Miami Declares She’s “S-I-N-G-L-E,” Amid Diddy Romance

by

It wasn’t long ago that Yung Miami told Sean “Diddy” Combs that he’s single but they “go together.” The Caresha Please moment arrived in the thick of the pair confirming their canoodling. Yet, they stopped short of admitting to any sort of commitment. Still, Yung Miami and Diddy’s escapades have been well-documented—mostly thanks to them. They regularly shared their jet-setting adventures and even collaborated on the remix to his song, “Gotta Move On.” He reportedly bought her a Maybach truck, and they were photographed enjoying vacations. However, Miami is making it clear that she’s single and doesn’t have a man.

What is unclear is the status of the City Girls star’s relationship with the Bad Boy hitmaker. Yet, we did get more insight into Miami’s singleness when she and JT sat down for an interview over the weekend during Rolling Loud California. The ladies took to the stage for a show-stopping performance and chatted with Billboard backstage.

Yung Miami Makes It C-L-E-A-R

MIAMI, FLORIDA – NOVEMBER 24: Yung Miami (R) joined Sean “Diddy” Combs and his family, his daughters Chance, D’Lila and Jessie, as they celebrated Thanksgiving Day at The Caring Place in Miami on November 24, 2022 in Miami, Florida. (Photo by Alexander Tamargo/Getty Images for Sean “Diddy” Combs)

JT and Yung Miami were asked if they double date, and JT and Lil Uzi Vert have been happily in love for some time. Miami was quick to reply, “I’m single, baby. What man you saw me with?” This came as a shock to the interviewer, who joked that they may have seen a photo or two on the internet of her and a certain someone. “Yeaaah, yeah. I’m single S-I-N-G-L-E. Baby.”

This soundbite arrives amid Yung Miami’s recent tweets. She promised she wouldn’t be sharing “her next n*gga,” which was interpreted a few ways by her followers. Some claim she meant she wouldn’t be revealing him to the world. Others believe she was saying she didn’t want to share him with other women. Both would be valid in Miami’s case, but the latter explanation could speak to Diddy recently welcoming a daughter with Dana Tran.

Diddy’s Daddy Duties

Months ago, Diddy surprised the world when he revealed he was a father yet again. Since then, he’s been sharing photos or videos of Baby Love Combs, and often, Tran can also be seen. There isn’t much information about the latest mother, but it’s reported that she is from Southern California. Meanwhile, Yung Miami isn’t without her long list of suitors. Yet, whatever is going on between her and Diddy is being kept close to the chest. Check out the brief clip of the interview above.
