Benny The Butcher Ices Freddie Gibbs’ Baby Mama Out After Snatching Indiana Native’s Chain

by

If there’s anyone in the rap game you don’t want to play with, it’s Benny The Butcher. Freddie Gibbs has been learning this the hard way in recent years, particularly after getting his chain snatched during a run-in with the New Yorker and his goons. The Indiana native’s baby mama, known online as The Fit Mami, was with him at the time of the incident and wound up being prescribed medication to help with her panic attacks afterward. She and Gibbs are no longer together romantically, as he allegedly walked out after finding out about her pregnancy, but the content creator isn’t struggling on her own. Instead, she’s got The Butcher to keep her warm.

After taking some ice off his 41-year-old opp, the East Coast icon is now putting a brand new flashy piece on The Fit Mami (real name Destini). In the video below, Benny hooks the large necklace around her slender neck as she proudly poses for the flashing cameras. Afterward, they snapped some pictures together, both giving stone-cold stares before Destini picked up the BF pendant and showed off her grills proudly for everyone to see. “I’m like her bodyguard,” The Butcher jokes before Gibbs’ ex wraps her arm around him.

Benny The Butcher Doesn’t Mind Taking Sloppy Seconds from His Opp

At this point, it’s unclear if The Fit Mami is interested in seriously pursuing the Tana Talk 4 artist, or if she simply wants to get a rise out of Gibbs. He hasn’t said much about her antics as of late, but this move just might be what pushes him to speak out after confirming a new relationship of his own; we’ll be sure to update you on the latest as it comes.

Benny The Butcher isn’t the only MC we’ve seen outside with The Fit Mami this year. Earlier in the winter she was posted up with Millyz, who called the buzzcut-rocking beauty his “treacherous little twin” in one post. Read all about that at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Tyla And Travis Scott’s ‘Water (Remix)’ Video Is Dripping In Sexual Chemistry, Making The Steamy Visual Well Worth The Wait

by

The jury is still out on what Tyla’s hit song “Water” is actually about. What’s no longer up for speculation is whether the remix featuring Travis Scott will receive an official video. Last night (March 18), the long-awaited visual for the track formerly dropped on Tyla’s YouTube page.

As one of the listed tracks on her forthcoming self-titled album, the pressure was on to deliver something worth talking about, and that they did. The steamy video was well worth the wait. Tyla and Scott’s sexual chemistry is dripping throughout the visual, and that tension flows well into Scott’s guest verse.

“You keep it wet, that’s a real-life challenge / All that ass gotta pour out of gallons / Beauty in the top, keep balance / She in her bag, she wildin’ / You ain’t gotta hide your talent / Even if you did, I bet I find it / You know I’m comin’ from the H / But it’s +27 when I dial in,” raps Scott.

The flirty lyrics referencing South Africa’s international country code (Tyla’s home country) surely make the onscreen tension even more believable. Whether it is all for the camera or a sprinkle of actual romance doesn’t matter. All that matters is the fantasy has been gathered, packaged, and bottled to refresh the audience’s thirst for more Tyla.

Watch the “Water (Remix)” video above.

Tyla is out 3/22 via FAX/Epic Records. Find more information here.

Believe nothing you hear, half of what you see, and only a crumb of what’s on Google. Well, unless it relates to celebrity net worth.

On March 15, during Cardi B’s appearance on 360 With Speedy, the “Enough (Miami)” rapper shed light on her massive wealth. With several business ventures, endorsements, and more, Cardi must be rolling in the dough.

Like most of us, host Speedy Morman could not help but ask Cardi to verify the search engine results. Continue below for Cardi’s official response.

What Is Cardi B’s Net Worth?

When Morman asked if the $80 million price tag on Google was indeed true, Cardi seemed to confirm that it was certainly close to it.

“I made a lot of money,” she said. “I feel like I actually passed almost doing $80 million. I make a lot of money. I make a lot, a lot, a lot, a lot, a lot, a lot, a lot of money.”

Cardi went on to say that even though she’s rolling in the dough, she also has quite a few bills.

“But also, I got a lot, a lot of bills,” she said. “I’m taking care of [family]. I’m helping a lot — I’m not going to say I take care, I’m helping a lot, and I help a lot of my friends and I help a lot of my family and everything.”

Ryan Garcia Breaks Down Into Tears Discussing God In An Emotional TikTok

by

Ryan Garcia broke down into tears in a candid post on TikTok, on Monday afternoon, while discussing his fan base and his relationship with God. Hillsong UNITED’s “Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)” plays in the background of the clip. The video comes ahead of his fight with Devin Haney.

“I love you guys. I hope you feel my love. I might cry,” Garcia began. “I might cry… but only because of the Holy Spirit and the love I feel right now. I don’t want to cry but I’m going to cry. I love God so much and I just felt that in my heart. I felt that in my soul. I’ve been going through a lot lately, I’ve been feeling a lot of hurt because I tried myself, I tried my hardest to share all the love that he gave me and I tried to help out the kids. I tried my best and everybody tried to break me down. They tried to make me stop, they tried to cancel my fight and I was trying to do something good.”

He continued: “I put everything on the line and they judge me hard but I kept going. I’m strong. People can say that I cried and what not and they think it’s a problem. Well, come see me… I just want to show you that I love you guys and I appreciate every one of you.” When one account on social media shared the TikTok while implying Garcia is mentally unwell, the fighter fired back: “Those who know the Holy Spirit will make a grown man cry. I was worshipping God on my TikTok live with my community. I love God and you titled this as if I was crying due to mental instability. I find it distasteful, and disrespectful to my beliefs. But again get your clicks and views.” Check out the TikTok below.

J. Cole Reveals How JAY-Z Tutored Him To Make Hit Songs

by

J. Cole has become one of the most recognizable hip-hop stars of all time. He is always included in the conversation for best rappers of the 2010 decade. His name is always next to Kendrick Lamar and Drake in those debates and deservedly so. Cole is one of the few lyrical mainstream hitmakers we have going today. However, the German born MC did not always find it necessary to become a master of hit songs. That is until J. Cole’s mentor JAY-Z taught him the way and convinced him to rethink things.

In a recent post from thehiphopwolf on Instagram, J. Cole revealed in a conversation how JAY-Z implored him to make some hits before dropping his debut tape. The “No Role Modelz” creator talked about his mindset going into his first LP saying that he was not concerned about that aspect. Instead, he was focusing more on making a classic. “That s***” could have sold 3,000, man that is supposed to be slept on.”

However, Hova quickly challenged that mentality once Cole signed to Roc Nation. Once J. Cole was told to go back and write up some hits, he said it took him a year to two years to do so. But, it was a full circle moment for him as now he sees it as a “superpower.” 2014 Forest Hills Drive was the start of that trend for Cole and he even said it himself in the clip above. “By the time [that] came by, I was smackin’ them b*****s out effortlessly.”

What are your thoughts on J. Cole revealing how JAY-Z taught him to make hit songs? Do you think JAY-Z is the greatest teacher in all of hip-hop, why or why not? Is Cole his greatest student, why or why not? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section.

Kanye West Records “CARNIVAL” Verse In Room Full Of Friends: Video

by

When asked about their recording process, some artists insist that they can only work in quiet studios free of all distractions. Kanye West, on the other hand, doesn’t mind performing while making his album, as we saw with Vultures 2. The controversial project finds Ty Dolla Sign and Ye further pushing creative boundaries and topping the charts, even with the latter’s widespread cancellation through the entertainment industry in recent years.

On Monday (March 18), a video surfaced online showing West in a room surrounded by dozens of friends, many of them seated around them. He had his recording tools set up in front of him, and headphones wrapped around his temples while seemingly nodding along to music blaring out of them. Around him, small talk and chatter continued until he began spitting his provocative bars. “Now I’m Ye-Kelly, b**ch / Now, I’m Bill Cosby, b**ch,” the father of four assertively declares. “Now, I’m Puff Daddy rich / That’s ‘Me Too’ me rich.”

Kanye West’s Vultures 2 Recording Process

Along with the NSFW song, Ye and Dolla shared a CGI-generated visual to accompany “CARNIVAL,” which showcases a lot of violent imagery. Despite the controversy surrounding the “Stronger” hitmaker and his latest LP, his circus-themed track still managed to nab the No. 1 spot on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart earlier this month. He’s hinted that at least one more installment of Vultures is coming our way this year, and we’re eager to see what his creative process will be for that.

Now that we’ve filled you in on how Kanye West recorded his verse on “CARNIVAL,” you can turn your attention to Ice Spice’s rumoured “New Body” verse. According to Ye. the New Yorker’s team is gatekeeping the music from being released, which doesn’t come as a surprise to many considering Spice’s working relationship with Nicki Minaj. Read the latest on that debacle at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.
