Peter Gunz ironically became the host of the long-running reality TV show Cheaters last year, which eventually became the subject of many jokes on social media. The premise of the television series attempts to catch people cheating on their significant other through different investigative strategies and stakeouts.

The Love & Hip Hop: New York star is no stranger to reality television and is likely well aware that anything can happen. Gunz was in for a surprise when the man he was supposed to aiding in catching his girlfriend cheating on him turned his rage towards the host, resulting in a physical brawl.

During this particular episode, the footage of Gunz, as dissected on SHOWTIME’s series Desus & Mero, shows the host presenting a man footage of his wife committing infidelity allegedly cuddled up next to another man. The man grows increasingly angry, eventually attempting to slap the phone out of Gunz hands and shoving him. 

Gunz swings back and soon the two are wrestling together in the grass as security tries hard to separate the men from each other. Gunz tries to diffuse the situation afterward by saying, “If I offended you, I apologize. Let’s get this to him. I need you to channel this energy toward the man that’s with your lady right now. I know where she at right now. Let’s pull up.” 

The scorned man then turns his rage to his girl’s side piece, hitting him with a foot to chest before security interferes again. “I think security is overwhelmed. I think security just might live in Peter Gunz’s building. He’s like, ‘Yo, just come with me to work,” assessed Desus. 

Gunz was officially announced as the incoming host of the series in February of 2020 following the fatal drug overdose of the previous host Clark James Gable. Gunz also has an extensive history of infidelity and at least 10 children, making him an ironic choice as the new face of the show.

For many, an album from Black Hippy would be a dream release, unlikely though it may be at this current moment. During a recent interview with Adam 22 on No Jumper, Derek “MixedByAli” Ali took a moment to explain where things ultimately veered off course for the stacked group of lyricists. 

At around the one hour and seven-minute mark, Ali admits that there was a time where an album was actively in the works, presumably around the year 2010. “It was happening,” he reveals. “We worked on hella records. But then everybody’s individual success started going crazy. At that time, Q wasn’t really taking off, then he dropped Setbacks. Soul was doing his Longterm series.”

“[Black Hippy is] how we can bring more love to everyone, get more eyes and ears on all the artists,” he continues. “But then they start getting their own traction within the community and within the industry. It was just a natural thing, there just wasn’t no time. Things got busier and busier and busier, and then real life came in. People were having kids, started taking time for themselves. Blocking specific time for sessions. Ultimately, the timing didn’t line up.” 

Adam remarks that TDE’s reputation as a label that prioritizes quality over quantity is well-founded, though it can occasionally lead to vast periods of downtime between releases. “Quality over quantity, facts man,” replies Ali. “It’s harder nowadays cause there’s so much music dropping, it’s like dropping music into a black pit and seeing what survives. But the one thing that got us here is quality, and it’s one thing we try to keep that integrity. All the artists involved with TDE make sure that when they drop, it’s going to be right.”

For much more from MixedByAli, one of hip-hop’s most influential minds behind the boards (and among the few with any knowledge surrounding Kendrick Lamar’s new album), check out his full interview with Adam 22 on No Jumper below.

When is Wendy Williams not running her mouth? The famed talk show host has been the gossip queen for over a decade, creeping into the headlines every other week because of the unsavory things she says about A-list celebrities and artists. This week, rapper Youngboy Never Broke Again addressed the talk show host in a letter from jail. 

Her latest Hot Topics segment highlighted the current media coverage of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s ongoing divorce, including reports that Kanye is “annoyed” that people believe Kim initiated the divorce filing. Wendy was unimpressed about Kanye’s alleged sentiment, going off and rudely telling the music legend to “get back in [his] cage” during her latest show.

“He let her file [for divorce] first to give her her dignity,” said Wendy, recalling the headlines from this week’s coverage of their high-profile divorce. “I don’t believe a word of what he’s saying. By the way, his next girl– or, the next love in his life, he wants to be an artist. Like somebody who makes music and draws pictures and, I guess, writes books and stuff like that. Well, [Kim’s] a social media influencer so I guess she’s not the artist. But you pined for her! We know the story, Kanye! Get back in your cage…”

Watch what Wendy had to say below at the 5:02 mark and let us know what you think. 

Saweetie’s incredibly sensationalized breakup with Migos rapper Quavo has been much of the topic surrounding the Central Valley rapper. Aside from the breakup, however, she’s been churning out features and other content as she gears up to release her debut album Pretty B*tch Music. 

The “Best Friend” rapper has made waves on the internet in the past for her sometimes stomach-turning unique food combinations, like ranch dressing on spaghetti, for example. This time, Saweetie’s new combination with Flaming Hot Cheetos and Ramen noodle seasoning is what’s sending the internet into a frenzy.

In the video, Snoop Doog asks aloud “Hot Cheetos and pizza?” as Saweetie dives into the interesting combination, doing a happy dance at the results of her tasty creation. 

“I put ramen seasoning on my oysters,” Saweetie goes on to say as she does this next. “See, that’s what you call ghetto faboluous. There’s no way around that sh*t,” Snoop says teasingly while being an overall encouraging presence. 

As usual, social media had a lot to say about the latest clip of Saweetie going viral for her eating habits. “Saweetie eats like a raccoon,” put one internet user about her daring food combos. Another joked that her stomach must sound like the Seinfeld introduction. 

Another defended her, writing “you talking like you see this b*tch eat every day. y’all see a video every few weeks and just start saying and typing, typing and saying.” Of course, we’re sure Saweetie is in great health and the internet is just being the internet. Scroll through more reactions below. 

Would you try either combination? Let us know down in the comments.

Rising North Carolina rapper Morray has been steadily on a winning streak, having recently inked a deal with Pick Six Records and Interscope Records. Shortly after the new partnership was announced, Morray has come through to detail his upcoming major-label debut mixtape Street Sermons, revealing the tracklist and release date.

Set to drop on April 28th, the project will feature a reasonable thirteen songs, further proof that Morray isn’t looking to waste any time. As expected, many of the rapper’s previously released singles — including the breakout “Quicksand,” “Kingdom,” “Switched Up,” and Big Decisions” — will see inclusion on the Street Sermons. While some might lament the presence of long-released material, it’s not entirely surprising to see Morray’s established cuts getting a home, especially after “Quicksand” caught the eye of Jay-Z, J. Cole, Rick Ross, and DaBaby alike. 

Should you be interested in checking out what Morray has lined up, the complete tracklist can be found below. At this moment, it’s unclear if we’ll see any guest appearances — it can be reasoned that a deal with Interscope may very well open a few notable doors — but for now, assume that Morray is opting to fly solo for his big premiere. 

Look for Morray’s Street Sermons, which promises to blend his signature bled of honest reflection and powerful church-honed vocals, to land in full on April 28th.

Last year, Lil Dicky’s FX series Dave became an instant fan-favorite, earning acclaim from critics and professional rappers alike. As word spread, Dave quickly became the network’s most-viewed comedy series, and the rapper slash actor wasted little time in getting things rolling for season two.

Shortly after production concluded, EW has confirmed that the second season of Dave will be premiering June 16th on FX, with episodes being uploaded to Hulu the following day. Many of the expected celebrity cameos have been revealed, with confirmed appearances from Doja Cat, Lil Nas X, Rae Sremmurd, Lil Yachty, J Balvin, CL, Kareem Abdul-Jabar, Hailey Beiber, Kendall Jenner, and more. A bit of a different landscape from the first season, in which there was a slight skew toward hip-hop with YG, Young Thug, Gunna, OT Genasis, and Trippie Redd coming through to hold it down.

While plot specifics have yet to be shared, Dicky previously opened up about the writing process after the first season wrapped up. “I think we can go in a number of directions,” Burd teased, again speaking with EW. “Like, I’m not the guy who has it all mapped out like The Wire did. So I’m pretty open-minded. I think I’ll be able to look at season 1 and be like, ‘This episode worked so well — why? Okay, let’s make 10 episodes that work this well. This episode didn’t work — why?’ I think this is our floor, it’s only going to get better.”

Look for Dave to return to the fold on June 16th, and sound off if you’re excited to see where Lil Dicky’s series goes next.

In an internet culture that quickly consumes things and pushes them to the side just as fast, Chet Hanks has maintained an interesting media presence in the past few months. Once subject to heavy criticisms due to being deemed a culture vulture, his “White Boy Summer” tirade eventually became the subject of amusement for many people.

This narrative changed a bit when a leaked video showed a physical altercation between him and an ex-girlfriend, but Hanks has continued his social media antics regardless. Most recently, the son of Hollywood A-lister Tom Hanks aimed his cupid’s bow and arrow at Lizzo.

The 30-year-old actor shot his shot at the Grammy award winner via Instagram stories in response to a viral TikTok of her shooting her shot at Captain America actor Chris Evans. The TikTok shows the “Truth Hurts” songstress fangirling over a direct message she received on the gram from Evans.

Swooping in to save the day if things don’t work out, Hanks reshared the TikTok on his Instagram story and penned, “[Lizzo] if it don’t work out w/ Captain America I’m here baby WBS BQS,” short-handing his White Boy Summer and Black Queen Summer declarations. 

Lizzo has yet to respond to the controversial media personality setting his eyes on her. It seems unlikely that she would either way. 

In other Chet news, he’s allegedly being sued for $1 million by his ex-girlfriend for physical abuse. The lawsuit comes on the eve of his “White Boy Summer” track and music video set to arrive sometime soon. 

Royals, athletes, and billionaires… oh my! Kim Kardashian is reportedly one of the hottest eligible bachelorettes in the world, attracting romantic attention from a who’s who of A-list actors, professional athletes, billionaires business owners, and even members of the Royal Family, according to sources at Page Six.

Just one day after it was reported that Kanye West is “annoyed” about the media narrative surrounding his ongoing divorce from Kim Kardashian, new reports suggest that Kim is one of the most eligible bachelorettes on the market, being courted by all sorts of interesting suitors. Sources reportedly informed Page Six that the reality television star has a list of famous men reaching out to be next in line for the Kardashian ko-sign.

“People are reaching out through mutual friends and people that she’s worked with to set her up with everyone from royal family members to A-list actors to athletes to billionaire CEOs,” said the source. Despite the 40-year-old receiving a vast amount of messages from potential lovers, she’s apparently in no rush to start dating again, taking her time on choosing her next partner. “She’s not looking to jump into anything but is keeping an open mind,” said the source.

As for Kanye West, he reportedly has expressed interest in dating an “artist” next. Azealia Banks has already applied for the spot, but she quickly backtracked and told her fans that she was joking when she said she wanted to have Kanye’s babies.

Who do you think Kim Kardashian will end up with?
