It’s undeniable that Rap has evolved since its inception, but LL Cool J isn’t feeling the latest title bestowed upon him. The 53-year-old Rap legend has been in the game since the mid-1980s and helped blur the lines between hard bars coming from the streets and the new R&B movement at the time that was gaining traction. We’ve received some classic Rap-R&B hits from LL Cool J including “I Need Love,” “Hey Lover,” “Loungin’,” and “Doin It,” and it’s clear that he’s a pioneer in the entertainment industry.
As we attempt to categorize artists, some of our legends are being tossed in lanes that they don’t necessarily believe they adhere to. It’s unclear where this latest label came from, but Cool James posed a question to his followers for a little help in understanding why he’s been named the “forefather of pop rap.”
“Me being called the forefather of pop rap is very confusing. What the f*ck are you talking about?? LOL,” LL tweeted. He has yet to offer up a follow-up message to share where he received his information, but his fans were quick to point out that if anyone would take that crown, it should be the Fresh Prince & DJ Jazzy Jeff.
LL has had a few Pop-Rap mash-ups in the past, but some think naming him a “forefather” of the genre is a stretch. Who do you think the title actually belongs to?
If you can’t trust your team, who can you trust? Thousands of people are begging to work behind the scenes with some of our favorite artists and producers, and unsurprisingly, many are apprehensive about adding just anyone to their team. Plenty of artists can tell you stories about people in their circles taking advantage of them, and it seems that DJ Mustard is the latest artist with a bone to pick.
Mustard penned a statement on his Instagram Story that shows his personal shopper, a woman reportedly named Karissa Walker, allegedly scammed him out of $50K. According to him, she used his credit cards to finance her lifestyle.
“Attention to all my people who know me I wanna bring something up everyones attention !” Mustard wrote. “@KarissaCWalker is a thief and a liar !!!! She is not my stylest she was a personal shopper for me and @ChanelDijon we let her use the stylest word so she could get business but the truth is she did nothing but shop !!!”
“Today I found out that she ran my credit cards up over 50K buying stuff for her self !!!! Purses shoes shades and other stuff Im hot and I’m only writing this so nobody else deals with her she’s bad for business !!!! I have all the receipts to prove everything … I payed her more than she was worth cause I don’t play with taking care of people that do there jobs.”
He ended his message by writing, “This is f*cking crazy and just wrong !!!!” In another slide, he added that he paid her $6,000 per month ($72K per year) and after calculating, she could have good and well racked up over $100K in expenses. “She ran up $15K in LV alone on herself !… For somef*cking Instagram likes ??!??” Check it out below.

As with all highly publicized deaths, scammers are waiting in the wings. DMX fans continue to offer tributes and celebrate the life of the late rapper whose untimely death occurred following a heart attack. His family has made sure that the narrative surrounding DMX’s passing has been respectful and truthful, but there are still those who are using the rapper’s death as a way to swindle the masses.
According to TMZ, there are plans to have both public and private services for the beloved New York emcee, and as we await news of those events, the outlet states that DMX’s family is warning against falling for scams. There have been alleged rumors floating about that X’s loved ones are in need of financial help to pull together his funeral service, and TMZ reports that the rapper’s family states that is simply not the truth.
There have also been reported companies selling DMX merchandise that’s supposedly connected to his family and the outlet claims that the rapper’s relatives have not sanctioned anything official at this time. The family also reportedly has called foul on the rumors that Jay-Z and Beyoncé purchased DMX’s masters for $10 million in order to give them to his loved ones. Apparently, that isn’t true.
“The family says X’s masters aren’t in play with Jay and Bey at all,” TMZ reports. “Yes, some are still under Def Jam control — but not owned by Jay outright.”

His name has been a trending topic for the better part of the day (April 12) after a woman accused Usher of making it rain in the strip club with fake money. The irate woman shared photos of the large bills that looked quite real aside from Usher’s face being plastered in the center. “Working so hard to get nothing in return! This is a joke!!” a person wrote of the incident. “Their job is to entertain, take your cheap ass back home!!!!!”
Soon, people accused the singer of swindling strippers, but TMZ now reports that the “Usher bucks” were used for promotion, not as real money. The outlet claims that they have been told that the incident occurred in Las Vegas at the Sapphire club, and while there, Usher and his crew spent stacks of real money on the staff. It’s reported that they tipped “quite generously” and spent “thousands on the dancers.”
Additionally, the group also dropped a few bills on bottle service—real money, once again—but someone in the singer’s entourage allegedly thought it would be funny to also leave behind Usher-faced cash as a joke. Sapphire reportedly doesn’t have any issues with Usher and would love to have him and his friends back any time.
It’s said that the money is also a part of the promotion for his upcoming residency in Las Vegas. After this information came to light, the reported dancer who launched the controversy has backtracked and is now saying she never suggested that the fake money was the only cash the singer used. Check it out below.

Quotable Lyrics
Lil mama on my head like a du-rag
Best friend up on my back like a bookbag
I just fucked ’em both then I fell back
Wanna book me for a show, have to cut a cheque
