Billie Eilish is one of the biggest artists in the world and at the age of 19, she has already won various Grammy Awards and it doesn’t feel like she will be slowing down in the immediate future. In July, the artist will be delivering her highly-anticipated album Happier Than Ever and fans are excited to see what she has in store. 

More recently, Eilish was on the cover of British Vogue where she showed off a massive style change that took many by surprise. Eilish also got to talk about her love of Karaoke during her sitdown with the magazine and she even had a surprising admission. At first, she noted that she loves to sing H.E.R. songs although the big shock was when she revealed her love of Chief Keef.

“I really love H.E.R., I feel empowered when I sing H.E.R. songs, or like, Chief Keef to be honest,” she said. “I don’t even know if they have Chief Keef at karaoke bars, but I would request some Chief Keef.”

Chief Keef has a lot of iconic songs under his belt although we’re unsure which track is Eilish’s favorite. However, we can’t help but picture what it would be like if she decided to sing something like “Faneto” at a Karaoke bar. That would truly be a sight to behold.

It’s been a little bit over a year since Pop Smoke was gunned down in a rented Hollywood Hills mansion. The Brooklyn rapper was shot and killed in what was understood to be a botched home invasion. Previously, scare details surrounding the specifics of the case were available. 

In the latest circumstances surrounding the case, however, the crime becomes much more heinous. As we reported yesterday, after being shot, Pop Smoke was then kicked as he lay on the ground. In addition, the “Welcome to the Party” artist was robbed of his diamond-studded Rolex before he was shot and killed by a 15-year-old. 

According to the New York Daily News, a 15-year-old suspect allegedly admitted to shooting Pop Smoke after he and his gang of other majority-teenaged assailants broke into the adored rapper’s rented LA home. Their goal of the heist was to rob Pop Smoke of his Rolex and his Cuban link gold chain. 

An officer got these details from a recording of a conversation that went down between the accused shooter and a cellmate at a juvenile detention center in May of last year. According to his testimony, the four defendants, who have all been charged with murder, sold the watch for $2,000.

“He admitted that he shot the victim three times with a Baretta 9 (mm,),” LAPD Det. Carlos Camacho reportedly testified on Friday (May 7), at a hearing for the only adult named in the case, Corey Walker, who is 20. 

Both Walker and the teen shooter are said to have snitched on themselves. Pop Smoke was reportedly confronted in the wee hours of February 19th, 2020 while he was naked in the shower. Initially complying and giving up his watch, a fight later broke out, eventually leading to Pop’s death. He was 20 years old at the time.

We’ll keep you updated as the case proceeds.

Mike Tyson is one of the best fighters to ever do it and he has no problem giving his unfiltered opinion on the fighting world. Over the past few months, Tyson has actually been a huge champion of the Paul brothers, Jake and Logan. After Jake knocked out Nate Robinson right before Tyson’s comeback fight, Iron Mike has found an appreciation for the social media star and he believes Jake has a lot to offer in terms of fighting. 

Despite this, Tyson was recently asked about Logan and Jake’s chances should both of them get a shot at fighting Floyd Mayweather. As Tyson told the TMZ cameraman, Jake and Logan would get absolutely decimated by Floyd although he is still a big fan of what they are doing.

This past week, Jake got himself into some controversy after he straight up stole Mayweather’s hat during the press conference to promote the fight with Logan. Mayweather absolutely popped off and his security hit Jake with a clean shot to the eye. It wasn’t a good look for anyone involved although it has drummed up quite a bit of hype for the fight.

With Logan and Floyd fighting on June 6th, we are certainly in for a ton of drama. Let us know your predictions for the fight, in the comments below.
