Quotable Lyrics from Self-Titled

So many flows, you can’t complain, that is not a problem with me (Let’s go)
Swag on a thousand, can’t be talkin’ to me (Ayy, ayy)
I heard the money callin’, havin’ a talk with the brief (Ayy, ayy)
You gotta be yourself (Let’s go), don’t try to be like me

This subsequently led to his break from streaming. He has not gone live in 2026, and there have been rumblings about what his next move will be. Over the past few months, he has documented his reading journey. Furthermore, he has been working on his fashion brand, Vivet. However, the fans have been hoping for a stream.

Well, Cenat made a massive announcement last night. Below, you will find an elaborate, Harry Potter-inspired promotional video for “Streamer University 2.” This will be his next big streaming project, as he renews one of his most successful ideas to date.

The first Streamer University featured some big names teaching classes full of wannabe streamers in need of guidance. Overall, it was a unique idea and one that led to big ratings for Kai. Now, we are getting a sequel, and streamers are being encouraged to enroll.

At this time, it is unclear when the first Streamer University 2 stream will take place. It can be presumed that applicants will have to be vetted before anything can take place.

Regardless, the prospect of Cenat’s return to streaming is an exciting one for fans everywhere. There was a sense that he may never stream again. However, that appears not to be the case. Whether or not Cenat goes back to full-time streaming after this, remains to be seen.

At the time, Tay-K was facing a home invasion and a murder charge. In the end, the artist was convicted on both and was hit with 135 years in prison. It has been said that his release will take place in 2099, when the artist is 99 years old.

However, there have been some erroneous online rumors suggesting that Tay-K will be freed before then. In fact, some blogs have run with the idea that Tay-K is going to be released imminently. On Monday, the artist received new mugshots. Subsequently, his Twitter account became active, posting a two-word message: “It’s True.”

Is Tay-K Coming Home?

The timing of this message suggests the X account is responding to the recent rumors surrounding his release. However, it is unclear whether or not Tay-K is even in control of that account. After all, anyone can get verified on X these days.

Meanwhile, rumors of his release are completely unsubstantiated. Authorities have not hinted at such a thing. Given his projected release in 73 years from now, it seems highly unlikely that he would be let free at this time. Instead, fans are simply putting too much stock in reports that appear to be materializing out of thin air.

X and other platforms have been a steady source of misinformation over the past decade. This Tay-K situation is no exception. However, if any of that changes, we will be sure to let you know.

While there have been plenty of music videos for the ICEMAN songs, fans have been hoping for some MAID OF HONOUR love. It is an album with plenty of club beats to go around, and it’s just an overall good time. Now that the summer has arrived, it feels like this is an album that is more relevant than ever before.

Drake appears to agree. We know this because recently, he landed in Turks and Caicos for one of his infamous vacations. Having said that, it appears as though this is also a business trip of sorts. On Monday night, footage of Drake filming a music video alongside Stunna Sandy was posted.

Drake x Stunna Sandy

Given Stunna Sandy’s presence, it can be presumed that this is going to be a music video for “Outside Tweaking.” Of course, this is one of the songs off MAID OF HONOUR.

Drake and Stunna Sandy appeared to be having a good time in the footage. If and when the music video is released, we can expect it to be high-energy, with some fun Summer vibes in the mix.

Ultimately, Drake continues to stack wins. His albums are at the top of the charts, and he has two songs in the Billboard Top 10. “Shabang” is another song that has pierced the zeitgeist and is packed with quotables.

If these three new albums have taught us anything, it is that Drake can still write big hits.

As for Trump’s attendance at the game, it proved to be controversial because of the potential to curse the Knicks. The vibes were high in New York City, and some feared that if Trump attended the game, the Knicks would start losing. So far, that is exactly what is happening.

Stephen A. Smith was one of the first people to beat this drum. In fact, Smith said that if the Knicks were to lose, he would put all of the blame on President Trump.

The President was made aware of these comments, and while hopping on a plane out of New York on Monday night, Trump made some insulting comments about Smith’s intelligence.

Donald Trump Sounds Off On Stephen A.

“I think he’s a nice guy but you need a certain aptitude to run for president,” Trump said. “You need a high IQ, I’m not sure Stephen A Smith has that.”

IQ talk is typically a racist dogwhistle, which isn’t surprising from this President. Having said that, we are eager to see how Smith responds on First Take later this morning. We’re sure he has a lot to say about the President and this latest Knicks loss.

Game 4 of the NBA Finals will take place on Wednesday at Madison Square Garden. The ensuing Game 5 will take place in San Antonio on Saturday. If the Knicks win Game 4, they will have an opportunity to win the championship on the Spurs’ court this weekend.

He is going to Tampa for two shows in June, and throughout the Summer, he will be traveling the world. Overall, there are some real questions about whether or not he can sustain this good behavior. For now, however, fans are enjoying this new subdued version of Ye while it lasts.

Last night, Ye dropped off his new song “Gemini Season,” which comes complete with a raunchy Bianca Censori music video. As it turns out, this is all part of Ye’s new BULLY Deluxe album, which officially has a release date. You can expect it to drop on Friday, June 19th.

Kanye West Has More Music Coming

Details surrounding the Deluxe project are fairly scarce. At this time, we do not know how many songs there are going to be. Furthermore, it is unclear whether or not any of these songs are going to contain features.

As many already know, Ye is someone who likes to delay his projects. He works on things up until the last minute, which can lead to these kinds of frustrating delays. With that being said, the prospect of new Ye music is certainly going to delight pockets of his fanbase who still pay attention.

Beyond BULLY, it is unclear what Ye’s next big project will be. There is a fear that he will never reach the heights of the past. In fact, some consider DONDA his last great album. It’s unfortunate, but we have to agree.

Overall, this has been one of the biggest ongoing stories in hip-hop. Pooh Shiesty’s “FDO” was a smash hit upon his release from prison in the Fall of last year. However, his progress has been stalled, and given the charges at hand, he could be going to prison for up to 30 years if convicted.

Originally, the trial was set to begin on July 6 of this year. According to Bryson “Boom” Paul, that has ultimately changed. Judge David Godbey recently made a pretrial ruling, calling the case “complex.” As a result, the trial will now begin on February 22, 2027.

Pooh Shiesty Will Have To Wait

There will be one last pre-trial conference just five days before, on February 17. Regardless, this is going to be a long wait for Shiesty and his co-defendants.

Over the past couple of weeks, Shiesty’s father and Big30 have been granted pre-trial release. Pooh Shiesty, on the other hand, hasn’t been so lucky. He remains in custody, awaiting a trial that could very well determine his long-term future.

As for Gucci Mane, it was reported that he spoke to local police at the time of the alleged robbery and kidnapping. However, it was also stated that he has not cooperated with federal authorities. At this time, it remains to be seen if he will testify.

The setting puts The Wizard surrounded by fighters, security personnel, and devoted followers inside the venue. Agent 47 has to blend into the crowd and move through the arena without drawing attention. The security stays on high alert throughout, which makes the mission harder than a typical contract.

The game’s portrayal also reflects Wiz’s real-life dedication to fitness and martial arts. In the mission, The Wizard is not a soft target. He comes across as physically imposing, which lines up with Wiz’s well-documented training habits outside of music.

The mission is available free for a limited time until July 5th. The Hitman franchise has a history of celebrity collaborations, but this one stands out given how well the MMA setting fits Wiz’s actual public persona. It does not feel like a random casting choice.

The appearance follows the rapper preparing to head out on a summer tour with MGK. The timing keeps Wiz in the cultural conversation across music and gaming at the same time.

Wiz Khalifa Cast In Hitman Video Game

The Hitman franchise has built a consistent track record of celebrity crossovers inside its Elusive Target format. These are limited-time missions where a special target appears for a set window before disappearing permanently.

The Wiz Khalifa mission follows that same structure, running until July 5th. IO Interactive tends to design these contracts around the celebrity’s actual persona rather than dropping them into a generic setting.

Placing Wiz inside an MMA arena works because he has talked openly about combat sports training for years. The Wizard character leans into that side of him rather than the music side. That detail makes the mission feel considered rather than just a marketing placement.

The free access window also means players do not need to own additional content to participate, which broadens the reach beyond the core fanbase.
