Cardi B & Rah Ali Reignite Feud Over Rapper Dissing Kulture: Report

The animosity between Cardi B and Rah Ali dates back years—all the way to the infamous 2018 New York Fashion Week shoe-flinging drama that involved Nicki Minaj. Following the incident, the pair traded insults and Nicki even took to Queen Radio to give details on the fight, claiming that her good friend Rah punched Cardi repeatedly. After engaging in a highly-publicized online spat, the arguing dissipated and everyone involved left the chaos behind and went about their lives. However, Rah stirred the pot when she posted a diss track to her It’s Onsite account from an artist who took aim at Cardi and included a line about her young daughter, Kulture.

It didn’t take long for Cardi to catch wind of the post and she called out Rah Ali. “B*tches post me on they sh*t everyday and I haven’t said a word and that’s what bothers them soo they try to play wit the person I don’t play about and that’s my child,” wrote Cardi. “Yet, victimize themselves when some1 says they beating the baby out of them after months of her harassing a b*tch.” The “baby” mention is about Rah Ali’s previous argument with Ari Fletcher.

The rapper’s fans came forward to call Rah Ali “obsessed,” causing Cardi to continue her rant. “She’s disgusting .Blocking and deleting people telling her she’s wrong for posting something mentioning my child …but she only try me & Ari  for clout but on my life imma handle her in person,” Cardi added. “Say wat you want but you not going 2 try me wit my kid.” The rapper also accused Ali of “gaslighting” her in order to get a response.

Rah didn’t hesitate to clap back.. “Cardi, shut yo dumb non English speaking ass up,” Ali replied. “I’m tired of trying to sound out your sentences. If you have a problem, take it up with the person wwho wrote the diss track not me because my media company @Its_Onsite posted it.” She added, “I didn’t mention your child nor would I ever. The person who wrote the diss track did. You are a BOZO! and you’re not going to do SH*T. Why don’t you pick up a pen and write back? That’s not an option huh?”

Ali returned to once again insult the way Cardi speaks and added that she’s not afraid of the rapper’s sister, Hennessy Carolina, either. It seems that when Hennessy heard the diss, she promised to resolve this issue in-person. Check out the exchange and reactions from fans below.

Kobe Bryant’s Family Look To Trademark “Mamba” & “Mambacita” For Apparel: Report

There may be new official apparel coming from Kobe Bryant’s camp. The late sports icon tragically lost his life in a helicopter accident alongside his 13-year-old daughter Gianna and seven of their friends just over a year ago, and the Bryants’ loved ones have been working diligently to preserve their legacies. Widow Vanessa Bryant recently scored a victory in court against the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department after a judge ruled that the authorities could not shield the names of officers who reportedly passed around photos of the helicopter site. A report now states that the Bryant family has taken legal action once again, this time as it pertains to trademarking Kobe’s signature labels.

According to TMZ, on March 10, the attorney for Kobe Bryant LLC filed paperwork to trademark “Mamba and Mambacita,” and the outlet states it was done “with the intention of using it for clothing and shoes” as well as workout attire. It isn’t specified that the Bryants are looking to use the labels for an apparel brand and it’s suggested that they just may want to lock things down legally to keep others from profiting from the family’s devastating losses.

The Mamba brand is a staple for Kobe Bryant and Co., so it’s not surprising that the family would want to keep those related brands close to the chest. There have been plenty of companies who have turned a profit following Kobe and Gianna’s deaths by selling “Mamba” items sporting purple and gold Los Angeles Lakers colors. Meanwhile, sneakerheads are ready for new Mamba kicks.

TikTok certainly has a way of taking relatively unknown and turning them into viral smashes. That’s what happened with Mooski’s hit record, “Track Star.” The song picked up a serious wave on social media after a viral dance challenge began to pick up steam and now, it’s sitting high up on many Spotify and Apple playlists.

Putting his own spin to the track, Trey Songz flexes his vocal chops with details of his bedroom fantasies.

Kanye West’s Yeezy And Gap’s Deal Is Reportedly Worth Nearly $1 Billion

Back in June 2020, Kanye West announced that his brand Yeezy landed a deal with Gap. While he didn’t share too many details about the joint venture, some specifics about the partnership were revealed by The New York Times. According to “a person familiar with the negotiations, who was not authorized to speak publicly,” the deal holds a term of ten years, with the option to renew after five. Almost nine months later, Yeezy and Gap’s partnership seems to be a successful endeavor.

Bloomberg reports that the collaboration between the two brands, which is set to be available in stores later this year, could be valued as high as $970 million. The publication also reported that Yeezy itself is valued between $3.2 billion to $4.7 billion, thanks to estimates from UBS Group. West also has $122 million in cash and stock, $110 million from his music catalog, and $1.7 billion in other assets, including Kim Kardashian’s SKIMS brand. If the reported numbers are correct, it would bump West’s net worth to somewhere between the range of $5.1 billion and $6.6 billion — a sharp increase from the $1.3 billion that Forbes reported last year.

In other news, last week collaborator Cyhi The Prynce said that West got back to work on his upcoming album Donda, which was originally set to arrive last summer.

Lil B Drops 90-Track Mixtape “Santa” Like It’s Christmas

There’s no shortage of Lil B music in the world. The enigmatic West Coast rapper has undoubtedly been one of the most influential rappers in the game, even if he doesn’t get his dues. His guerrilla marketing approach influenced others to tackle promoting their music in a similar matter, for better or for worse. 

It’s only been a few months since the rapper released his last project, the 100-song effort, Hoop Life 2 that included an audio version of his lecture at the University Of Florida. This week, the rapper returned with his holiday-themed project, Santa. The project includes 90 songs in total with acapellas, instrumentals, and collaborations alongside Young L, Gata GED, Soulja Boy, OJ Da Juiceman, and more.

Check out the latest project from Lil B below. 

Berner Links With Tunde & G.T. On “New Era”

Surprisingly, we’re three months into 2021 and we’ve yet to receive a single project from Berner. It’s only shocking because of how quickly he’s known to turn around projects. In the past two years, he’s released ten projects in total including collaborative projects with Curren$y, B-Real, and more.

It seems like Berner will be taking on a more international theme on his next project. The cannabis mogul teamed up with Tunde for their forthcoming collaborative project, They Land Better In Manchester. Today, the two rappers connected alongside G.T., who just dropped a new project, for their new collaboration, “New Era.” Tackling a psychedelic soul sample, the three rappers get on their big boss talk with laid back flows on this one.

Check out their new single below.

Quotable Lyrics
Wakin’ up at 5 a.m., unloadin’ a truck
Copped this shit all off the strength, I ain’t pay a buck
I ain’t been to the hood in a minute but I stay in touch
Still I park a foreign on the block, chill, smoke some Runtz

Bobby Brown Jr.’s Autopsy Receives “Security Hold” By LAPD: Report

Just days ahead of Thanksgiving, Bobby Brown suffered a tragic loss after it was shared that his son, Bobby Brown Jr., had passed away. There weren’t any immediate statements that suggested a cause of death, but a new report states that an investigation is being launched into the 28-year-old’s sudden passing.

According to The Sun, they received a statement from the Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner/Coroner that authorities are looking into Brown Jr.’s death. “A security hold was requested by the Los Angeles Police Department, the investigating law enforcement agency,” it reads. The outlet claims that last year, police reported that “there was no criminal investigation and no foul play was suspected,” and the autopsy had once been “deferred.”

Bobby Brown Jr. was found unresponsive at his Encino, California home when police responded to a call about a “medical emergency.” Sadly, he was pronounced dead at the scene. Karey Graves, a good friend of Brown Jr., reportedly told the Daily Mail that his late friend had a heart condition. Bobby Brown, who has endured several losses in recent years including the deaths of his ex-wife Whitney Houston and their daughter Bobbi Kristina, asked for the public to continue praying for his family.

Kim Kardashian Treating Kanye West’s Silent Treatment Like “Another Episode”

The power couple that was Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have called it quits. The socialite-turned-prison reform activist officially filed for divorce earlier this year after failed attempts to mend their relationship. It hasn’t necessarily been a smooth break up but it has been an inevitable one since his presidential rally last summer. Unfortunately, the split hasn’t necessarily been easy, either.

The couple share four children who remain their priority. With a prenup in place, Kim is seeking legal and joint custody of their children. Unfortunately, the pair haven’t been talking because Kanye cut her off. It was reported last month that Kanye changed all of his phone numbers and told her to contact him through his security detail. According to ET, they still aren’t speaking with each other which is alarming to Kim for the sake of their children.

“Kim sees this as Kanye having another episode and it is definitely concerning to her, especially in regard to their kids,” a source said. “Kim is just taking the time to focus on herself and her family and continuing to work and grow her business.”

In related news, it was reported that Kanye West’s net worth grew to $6.6B. The surge in his net worth now reportedly makes him the wealthiest Black man in American history. 

We’ll keep you posted on more updates regarding the KimYe saga.
