There are celebrities who have opted to keep details of their personal lives far away from the public eye, but Lamar Odom has spent years sharing his triumphs and pitfalls with the world. If he’s not penning tales about his most scandalous moments for a memoir, Odom regularly sits down to discuss the ins and out of his NBA career or the infamous moments involving his drug and sex addictions. Odom is good for sharing stories about his famous friends, as well, and recently, he sat down with VladTV and spoke about a time when he broke up a fight between Kobe Bryant and Master P.
Odom suggested that when the Lakers practice, “people just pop up.” He added, “You might not say nothin’, you might not catch eye contact with them, but you notice they there.” Master P showed up at a Lakers practice and “the aura, the energy, or the timing of it wasn’t really…wasn’t really kinda feeling it.”
“You gotta understand, these are two alpha males and their own, in with what they do,” Odom continued. “Awkward. You feel me? So, I’m from the street so I can peep it. So, I’m tryin’ to just dead it, but it was awkward.” Vlad wanted to know if Odom had to step in between the two stars. “It wasn’t like, getting in the middle but I’m just gon’ check both of they temperature and make sure they cool.”
“The energy was just off between them.” Odom seemed apprehensive with giving up too many details about what really went down, but he said he used his New York City instincts to calm whatever was brewing. Master P has previously given his version of events about this exchange with Bryant. Check out the clip below.
Each Verzuz matches or supersedes the previous, making it one of the biggest platforms for artists to showcase their talents. What began as an idea years ago materialized under COVID-19 quarantine as artists and musicians were forced to come up with new ways to connect with fans. Swizz Beatz and Timbaland have made big moves with Verzuz with sponsors like Ciroc and deals with Peleton and Triller. There are also talks about having Verzuz tours in the near future and with Swizz and Tim at the reigns, there’s no limit on what may develop.
We’re fresh off of the Earth, Wind, and Fire-Isley Brothers‘ match-up that is still talked about, and as they regularly do, Timbaland and Swizz hopped on Instagram Live to chat about their platform. Timbaland commented that Verzuz is the new Saturday Night Live, but Swizz thinks we’re past that. “Nah, we bigger than that,” said Swizz. “Our numbers beat SNL.”
Timbaland told him to say it one more time. “Our numbers are bigger than SNL,” Swizz repeated. “That’s not cap. That’s real talk.” The two moguls talked about the most recent Verzuz and Swizz admitted that it’s going to be hard to top that one. “It’s not about like, the best Verzuz,” Swizz added. “It’s about celebrating the creative. “
“So, some nights we gonna have the Super Bowl, and some nights we gonna have the Pro Bowl, some nights we gonna have the Rose Bowl, but we gon’ have a good time.” Check out the clip below.

In the past decade of Snoop Dogg’s illustrious career, he’s expanded into the world of wine and cannabis further, landed a few high-profile roles in both film and television, and of course, became a grandfather, all while releasing new music consistently. Since 2011, the Long Beach rapper has offered seven albums to date which have shown all sorts of glimpses into his artistry with projects focused on reggae, funk, and gospel music.
Following the release of Friday’s “Roaches In My Ashtray,” Snoop has unveiled an official date for the release of From The Streets 2 Tha Suites. Given the title of his latest single, it would only make sense that his new album would be released on 4/20. The rapper shared the date with official cover art for the project that includes the skyline of Los Angeles and four blue shoes including a Chuck Taylor sneaker.
The rapper’s new project will serve as the follow-up to 2019’s I Wanna Thank Me which took its title from his speech at the Hollywood Walk Of Fame induction. Snoop’s found himself back into a solid groove with his latest releases that simultaneously highlight his skill and a self-awareness to his position as an OG.
We’re excited to hear what Snoop Dogg has on his next project. What artists or producers do you want to hear Snoop work with on From The Streets 2 Tha Suites.

The last few years were quiet ones for New York rapper Belly after he released his Roc Nation debut Immigrant (renamed from Midnight Zone) in 2018. However, while he wasn’t releasing music for the last two years, that doesn’t mean he wasn’t working on it. Today, he made his long-awaited return to the spotlight with two new singles, “Money on the Table” featuring Benny The Butcher and “IYKYK.” Both singles support the upcoming release of Belly’s third studio album See You Next Wednesday.
While the former track finds both Belly and Benny in their typical boastful modes, “IYKYK” is a more vulnerable and introspective song, on which Belly admits to feeling “neurotic” and addresses the pressures of life. The tone’s consistent with his recent social media messaging, with which he shares his struggles with his health, both mental and physical. A press release for the new singles promises that his upcoming album, named in honor of filmmaker John Landis, will contain similar content, while the singles themselves show Belly hasn’t lost a step and remains as lyrically sharp as ever.
That pen game served him well in 2020; he helped co-write his XO Records label boss The Weeknd’s hit single “Blinding Lights,” which spent 56 weeks on the Billboard Top 10 songs chart. Stay tuned for him to complete his comeback with See You Next Wednesday, due later this year on XO/Republic.
Listen to “Money On The Table” and “IYKYK” above.

It’s feeling like a bit of a drought when it comes to ScHoolboy Q news, though such has become the norm for the entire TDE roster. Yet that hasn’t stopped fans from collectively eyeing the label, eagerly awaiting the slightest tidbit of new information. More often than not, such information arrives through the artists themselves, and today, the elusive Q took it upon himself to share a status update.
After a fan took a moment to openly ponder just “where the fu*k has ScHoolboy Q been,” a question that has been on many a mind since the announcement-and-indefinite-delay of his CrasH Talk follow-up, Q himself decided to step up and clear the air. “Verdansk & studio,” he replied, alluding to a pair of his favorite past times — recording music and playing Call Of Duty.
Interestingly enough, Q has been teased his upcoming body of work for a minute now, having initially implied that he’d be delivering it at some point in 2020. Yet save for Reason, who delivered his New Beginnings album (on which Q held it down as a featured artist) TDE was notably quiet. In October, Q did hint at a potential first-quarter release in 2021, though this latest update suggesting he’s still in the studio indicates that we’ll be waiting a little bit longer. While that may be disappointing to some, it’s refreshing to see Q moving at his own pace, especially in an era where records release at a breakneck pace — and occasionally to their detriment.
Here’s to a new project from ScHoolboy Q whenever he deems it ready. May the studio sessions be productive, and the kill-to-death ratio favorable.
