T.I.’s name is being tossed around in the middle of some drama again – this time, with his wife Tiny and reality star Shekinah Anderson over the actor and rapper’s rumoured fling with Bernice Burgos. Just a few days ago, Tiny’s former best friend addressed the ongoing drama between her and the couple on social media.

“Ain’t nothin’ safe over there,” Banks said on Instagram live of T.I. and Tiny’s house. “You can find out anything you want to find out in their house like nobody’s really they friend, cuz everybody who works for them, they don’t pay these folks, right? And they always accusing folks of stealing from them…” 

The TV personality then went on to insist that the “Whatever You Like” rapper and his wife will be paying her her lawyer fees, before bringing 41-year-old model Bernice Burgos’ name into the conversation. “That was the shit they did together, with that Bernice shit, you know,” she told followers tuning into her emotional rant a few days ago.

“If I don’t fight Bernice, my name gotta be brought up. What kind of bullying shit is that? Bernice ain’t never did nothing to me. She’s a beautiful girl, what am I fighting her for? I wasn’t there, I didn’t hook them up, but somebody thought my name had been bought because I’m a ghetto bitch that’s her friend. Get out of here, that was a set-up with both of them hoes.”

The Love & Hip Hop Atlanta star went on, “both of them hoes was friends that did this sh*t on purpose. It is what it is. That’s what I came to the conclusion of.” Seeing as Anderson’s live only provides one side of the story, it’s difficult to fully understand what’s going on, but from what we can understand, it sounds like T.I. and Burgos hooked up, and Tiny may have expected Anderson to go after the mother of two for sleeping with her husband, which she wasn’t down for, considering the comments she made during her live stream.

“F*ck I got to do with who this man sticks his dick in,” she continued from off-camera. “It ain’t my God damn business. He could f*ck the world for all I care, that ain’t got nothing to do with me! He is not my husband, so what the f*ck Imma fight somebody for? That ain’t my job!”

She then addressed Burgos, blowing the camera and saying, “Hey, Bernice! Girl, I got nothing against you. How you doing? I got nothing to do with it, it ain’t my business.”

2021 was a rough year for many people but YK Osiris’ Ls were publicly broadcast across Instagram. The R&B singer’s financial woes spilled onto the timeline after a clip of Lil Baby pressing Osiris over a $5K debt went viral. Ever since then, Osiris became a walking lick to the rap community. Drake offered Osiris the opportunity to sing his debt off at his Toronto home while Quavo seemingly won a basketball game with $10K on it. Osiris’ financial woes continued until the tail end of 2021 when he lost one of his earrings that cost $325K and later had his car broken into.

While Osiris was likely looking forward to the new beginnings that 2022 would offer, French Montana brought him back to square one over the weekend. A video surfaced of French trolling Osiris over a $5K debt at the club started to circulate. However, the jokes finally got to Osiris to declared that he will not allow anyone to mock his name moving forward. “2022 n***as not using my name for clout no more,” he wrote.

Osiris told TheShadeRoom that Montana’s claims were “not true at all.” French said that he won a bet from a bowling match but Osiris denied that he bet any money.

“We were just bowling having fun, nothing serious. The game wasn’t about any money, but French did win,” he said. YK added that he was joking when he said he’d pay French back.

If you thought we were leaving “Body” in 2021, you were wrong. We’re only three days into the new year, but we’ve already seen dozens of our favourites artists and celebrities flaunt what they’ve got on social media, including Lizzo, Chloe Bailey, and most recently, Erica Banks.

On Monday, January 3rd, the 23-year-old hopped on Instagram to debut her latest photoshoot, which sees her posing nude, wearing nothing but silver jewellery and braids, strategically placed to cover her chest and pelvic area. In the first dump, Banks wished her nearly 400,000 a happy day, and shortly after she dropped off more snapshots for your consideration.

“Flow Queeeen,” she wrote, clearly feeling herself as she pulled out various sexy poses for the camera. “First Monday of the year, let’s go,” she wrote. Elsewhere on her Instagram page, the “Buss It” rapper had a message for her followers.

“I’m not being a friend to nobody who don’t [be] a friend to me this year and that’s just that,” a tweet screenshot uploaded to the recording artist’s story reads. Over it, she wrote “and [I don’t care] who you are,” making it clear that she’s not coming to play in 2022. The post before is another tweet screenshot that reads, “the older I get… The less I feel the need to be included, understood, or accepted.”

As Hot97 points out, Banks had an incredibly successful run last year, which concluded with her appearance on the soundtrack of Halle Berry’s Netflix film, Bruised – read more about that here, and check out the Texas native’s latest thirst traps below.

In 2021, Lil Durk ran the charts. The release of The Voice in late 2020 kick-started an impeccable run that included the release of The Voice Of The Heroes with Lil Baby and the latest OTF compilation project. The latter served as a stepping stone for the artists who’ve been bubbling under Durk’s wing including Memo600.

Wack 100 recently explained his interest in signing Memo600. Some would be shocked at the business move since Wack’s openly admitted to working with Tekashi 6ix9ine whose not only beefed with Durk but disrespected Durk’s entire team. However, Memo doesn’t necessarily care about Wack’s other dealings, as long as 6ix9ine doesn’t come around him.

“Yeah, I’m fucking with him,” Memo said when asked about Wack’s interest in signing him. “As long as he don’t bring [Tekashi 6ix9ine] around me, I don’t got shit to do with that. I’m a real street n***a before music, I ain’t going to lie. I ain’t with none of that police shit, none of that. He cool, if that’s how he makes his money. That ain’t none of my business, you know.”

Memo also addressed rumors of a falling out with Durk, which he denied. “There ain’t no beef. That’s my brother. That’s fam shit,” Memo said. “How could I beef with somebody that put me on?”

Kanye West has begun working on a sequel to his 2021 album, Donda, according to Steven Victor, the COO at G.O.O.D. Music and SVP of A&R for Universal Music Group. Victor says the upcoming album is simply titled Donda 2 as of now.

“Ye has started working on his new masterpiece DONDA 2,” Victor exclusively told Complex on Monday.

While no further information on a release was provided, knowing West, fans are likely in store for a tumultuous rollout process. Donda was released on Aug. 29, 2021, after several months of deliberation and delays. Throughout the summer, Ye hosted numerous public listening events for the album, keeping fans on the edge of their seats while waiting for a final release. West and his crew also traded shots with Drake at the time as they both prepared new material. In the time since, however, both artists have reconciled and it’s reasonable to imagine they may even collaborate on Donda 2.

West was recently spotted in the studio working with legendary rapper Scarface. The two have collaborated on numerous tracks throughout both of their illustrious careers including “This Can’t Be Life” with Jay-Z, as well as “Guess Who’s Back,” “Heaven,” and “In Cold Bold.”
