Stevie J Labels 50 Cent an Uncle Tom and Recounts Raid at Diddy’s Miami Mansion

Stevie J, recently caught up in the scandalous accusations surrounding his pal Diddy, just defended his friend, albeit quite aggressively. But his assault didn’t stop there as he took shots at 50 Cent, who has been on a nonstop trolling barrage against Diddy, which has only increased after the federal raids and sex trafficking investigation. Stevie thinks the investigation is racially motivated. It is an interesting conspiracy theory, although there are, in fact, real accusers who have come forward with vivid accounts of their alleged trauma at the hands of Sean Combs and others. 

TMZ spoke to Stevie on “TMZ Live,” and he went in on Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, accusing him of tearing down the Black community and even going as far as to call him an “Uncle Tom.” Stevie thinks 50 is part of a propaganda machine against Diddy and says Jackson should “stop being a girl and talking about him.”

It’s clear that after being friends for 29 years, Stevie J’s loyalty is with Diddy’s. Even with all the accusations and federal investigation post-rattles, he is “in better spirits than you’d expect amid the ongoing federal probe.”

Stevie J also recapped his ordeal in Miami after the raid at Diddy’s mansion. From TMZ, he said the feds came into the residence, pointed their guns at him, and ordered him to exit with his hands where they could see them. Whew. He was placed in handcuffs while they searched the premises. He said the federal agents left with a bag of evidence. I wonder what they confiscated. Time will tell.

Beyoncé Wears Versace Leather ‘Cowboy Carter’ Fit At iHeart Music Awards 

Beyoncé wasn’t playing when it came to her drip at Monday’s iHeart Music Awards 2024. She wore a Versace all-leather Cowboy Carter-themed fit as she was on hand to receive the Innovator Award. Presenter Stevie Wonder gave the Renaissance diva the award, and she came on the stage wearing nothing short of a country chic outfit with vintage black leather.

As Page Six reported, the Italian “fashion house’s iconic gold Medusa-logo hardware, cinched with a duo of blingy belts and finished with a cowboy hat.” Check out the pics below. The jackets had fringe trimming, and the matching pants were laced with studs.

Beyoncé didn’t stop there, as she was iced out. Page Six reports that her gear was topped off with double-row earrings from Zydo diamonds ($167,600) and a ring that costs around $19,000.

Act II: Cowboy Carter has been out since this past weekend, but Beyoncé has been rocking the cowboy look since early February around the Grammys, where she had a cowboy hat and Louis Vuitton to fit the occasion. 

What do you think of her look? Should she keep it for a while, or nah?

Mike Tyson Reveals Grueling Training Regimen For Jake Paul Fight

by

Mike Tyson is going to be fighting Jake Paul on July 20th. Overall, this boxing match is going to be broadcast on Netflix, and there is a whole lot of fanfare surrounding it. However, the fight has led to lots of criticisms about whether or not someone of Tyson’s age should even be fighting. He is 57 years old while Jake is 27. This is a 30-year age difference, and most people believe that Tyson will get absolutely decimated by the younger man. Fans don’t really want to see that, but in turns out Tyson is working hard, regardless.

In a new interview on Fox News, with Sean Hannity, Tyson spoke about the steps he is taking for this fight. Essentially, he is working out every day and around the lock. Firstly, he starts his day out with some rowing exercises. From there, he goes to his boxing gym in the afternoon for sparring. Subsequently, strength and conditioning or what he ends up finishing the day with. Needless to say, the former heavyweight champion of the world is no slouch.

As for Jake Paul, he continues to train for the fight in Puerto Rico. He has his brother Logan helping him out, and there is no doubt that he is in better shape right now. That said, Mike still has a whole lot of punching power. If Paul wants to win the match, he may just have to play keep-away the whole time. Otherwise, Tyson could shock the former YouTube star with a significant strike to the head. Only time will tell how this will all go down.

Stevie J Goes After 50 Cent Following Continued Diddy Trolling, Calls Him “Uncle Tom”

by

Stevie J called out 50 Cent at length during a new interview with TMZ regarding the allegations made against his longtime friend, Diddy. The conversation began with him coming to Diddy’s defense and saying he hasn’t witnessed any of the behavior that’s been accused in various lawsuits in recent months.

“I’ve never seen my man doing anything foul like they talking about,” Stevie told the outlet. “I’ve never seen it, I’ve known him for 29 years.” From there, he brought up 50 Cent continuously trolling Diddy over the situation. “Uncle Tom cats like that. Now you wanna put me– I don’t know if y’all saw the post 50 posted about me. Of course you guys saw that,” he said. “You can’t brush under the rug– I don’t see anybody reporting about what Tatted Up Holly said about him beating her up and about these other baby mommas, beating her up. I just look at it as, he wants to bring the Black community down worse than anyone else.” He then brought up his previous offer to fight 50 for charity.

NxWorries Returns To Tease New Album With “86Sentra”

by

NxWorries, the soulful, California hip-hop duo of rapper and singer Anderson .Paak and producer Knxwledge, is back! Yes, after nearly a full year of no new material, they have finally got something new for the always eager fanbase. Ever since their excellent first effort in 2016 with Yes Lawd!, the hype surrounding them grew to epic proportions. However, outside of a remix version to their debut, the multi-talents have not been pressuring themselves to release new music. But we can at least say that NxWorries has a new single out now called “86Sentra.”

It is the shortest of the track that they have pushed out in the last year and a half. NxWorries’ first return after Yes Lawd! was their collaboration with R&B balladeer H.E.R., “Where I Go,” which dropped in 2022. Then, we would have to wait until May of 2023 to receive the gorgeous guitar-backed “Daydreaming.” Both cuts bring us to this short offering “86Sentra.”

It brings chill vibes coming from both Anderson and Knxwledge on the rapping and production front. .Paak is bringing some great rhymes and slick flows that skate over the drum-heavy beat. The synths looming in the background add an ethereal quality to the cut. While this is a solid release, the even bigger news is that this track is officially a promotional single! NxWorries will be dropping a new album on June 7 called Why Lawd? according to Pitchfork.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new single, “86Sentra,” by NxWorries? Is this the best track the duo has put out in the last year and a half, why or why not? What is your favorite element of the track and why? Do you think they will be dropping a new album this year? Who would you want to feature on the record? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section.

Powerball Jackpot Grows to $1.09 Billion After No Jackpot Winner Monday 

by
Powerball Jackpot Grows to $1.09 Billion After No Jackpot Winner Monday 

What would you do with a billion dollars? Yes, billion “B.” Well, the Powerball jackpot has risen to an astronomical $1.09 billion after Monday’s drawing ended with no top prize winner. 

For giggles, here are Monday’s winning numbers: 19, 24, 40, 42, 56 and Powerball 23.

So you still have a chance to be a billionaire, as the next drawing is Wednesday night. Now, here’s how the payouts work if one extremely lucky player wins the jackpot. They could choose the annuitized option, with an initial payment and the remainder paid over 29 years, or the lump-sum option of $527.3 million. Both are before taxes.

This marks the fourth-largest jackpot in Powerball’s history and threatens to close on the $1.13 billion Mega Millions prize sold in New Jersey last week.

According to the official lottery numbers, six players scored $1 million in prizes, and over 2 million others around the country won prizes at what are considered lower award tiers.

Now, it’s been three months since anyone won Powerball. The last winner was in Michigan, where they took home the $842.4 million prize on January 1. Talk about a Happy New Year. Sheesh. 

But don’t get too excited. The odds of winning a Powerball prize overall in any amount are 1 in 24.9. That is not too bad, but the odds of scoring the jackpot are 1 in 292.2 million. Good luck with that.

Rajon Rondo

Rajon Rondo has officially called it a career.

Speaking on the All the Smoke podcast, Rondo revealed that the NBA has “absolutely” seen the end of him on the court, and he will spend time with his kids.

“What a time, it was definitely something that I never took for granted when I was in the game,” Rondo said. “I loved every minute of it, and I appreciate the brotherhood that I was able to share and bond and grow with over the years. I’ve learned so much in this game and it’s made me the man who I am today. … I tell people all the time, this wasn’t a dream of mine, it was a goal. I was able to lock in, stay disciplined, I didn’t party a lot in college. But it was worth the sacrifice of me getting to where I wanted to be in life.”

Rondo is a 2x NBA champion, winning with the Boston Celtics in 2008 and the Los Angeles Lakers in 2020.

Across his career, Rondo averaged 9.8 points, 7.9 assists, and 4.5 rebounds across 957 career games. In addition to the Lakers and Celtics, Rondo played for the Dallas Mavericks, Chicago Bulls, Sacramento Kings, New Orleans Pelicans, Atlanta Hawks, Los Angeles Clippers, and Cleveland Cavaliers.
