“Chill… I’m on that level. ‘Baby fell off.’ What?” he expressed. “The people that it applies to, you don’t hear it about… It applies to a lot of people. That’s the cycle of it. The cycle that I’m on, the level that I’m on, it’s not a lot of people that are on that level.”

It seems like the Atlanta rapper believes people who actually fell off don’t even show up in the conversation the same way he does. As such, this is a sign of engagement and interest that, although negative, shows he’s still relevant in the game and operating on a high level. While some fans replied to this with sympathy or defense, others pointed to factors like the Gunna feud, lowering sales, and other narratives as counterpoints.

Lil Baby & Gunna Beef

Speaking of which, Lil Baby addressed this Gunna dynamic on Popcast as well. The former collaborators fell out after Wunna’s plea deal in the YSL RICO case.

“Whether I like them or they like me, it’s like, we all going to be on that personal vibe,” he shared. “We can not like each other but we going to play it cool for y’all, you know what I’m saying? It’s like an unspoken thing. It’s like a new thing now. I see like, people be going at each other and stuff, like, we ain’t really on that. We got a problem? We can handle our problem off the Internet, in person, just us… I’d rather have that beef or problem personally because we’re… really like the ones who hold it down for the town.”

Lil Baby has other drama to handle, such as continued conflict with DJ Akademiks online. But ahead of Fresh‘s release, he wants to show he’s still got it.

Quotable Lyrics from LOCK JAW

You n***as ain’t taking me ’round the coast,
N***as ain’t really on s**t, I’m h*e-key
New face, crop top, long hair, thick locks,
Face give ’em whiplash, body give ’em lockjaw

It’s an unsurprisingly dramatic track with a grand instrumental and no breaks in between the verses, and it won’t convince anyone on the other side of this feud or anyone who isn’t already invested. Still, there are some sharp bars throughout from Eazy, even if the subject matter is what folks really care about in this situation.

On that note, as the diss track’s title suggests, The Block Captain reached out to Shields. He said she could be doing better and warned her of Pap’s alleged misdeeds. It’s a far cry from previous disses, which took more of a taunting jab at the Claressa romance and focused more on Papoose’s relationship dynamics with Remy.

Eazy The Block Captain’s “Letter To Claressa”

We’ll see if the female boxer responds, or if Pap himself decides to drop another track on the matter. This messy situation will only get messier if they keep this up, and that’s exactly what many ravenous fans want to see.

Elsewhere, Papoose’s diss track towards Eazy The Block Captain, the recent “Food For Thought” freestyle, was particularly dismissive and off-the-cuff. In comparison to Eazy’s formal music video for “Letter To Claressa,” it shows how both MCs might be feeling about their combat.

One side seems more “unbothered,” while the other is “adamant.” We’ll see if this actually pans out into more explosive claims or bars, or if it just stays in the Internet gossip space.

Throughout all of this, Remy Ma is chiming in as well. She recently dropped her Alimony EP, which addresses some of these narratives. On the other hand, Claressa Shields is always quick to dismiss drama, clap back at haters, and make her presence felt online.

Authorities said that they are searching for three suspects who were armed with guns and a hammer and broke into the home. They said that the individuals barged into the home through the back entrance, leading to a vicious struggle. The masked suspects confronted a father, mother, and their two adult daughters before unloading their firearms “multiple times.” Const. Shannon Eames said the father and daughters were taken to the hospital with gunshot wounds, while the mother was hit with a hammer. Two of the victims face life-altering injuries, while authorities stated that the other two victims are being treated for non-life-threatening injuries.

Home Invasion In Toronto’s Bridle Path Neighborhood

No suspects have been apprehended yet. The police said they were spotted leaving the scene in an SUV. Insp. Kristy Smith noted how there’s no clear indication of the motive, but the suspects demanded valuables from the victims.

Cecil Hawkins, a neighbor of the victims, said that it’s a “terrible shock and tragedy,” while also comparing it to the 2024 shooting at Drake’s house.

“The attack on Drake’s house was awful, but he’s a celebrity and you don’t think it’s ever going to happen to you as a more normal person,” Hawkins said.

Police have since identified the CEO of the Mac Group, David Morton, as one of the victims, along with his daughters Cristina and Maggie and his wife, Doriana Zohil-Morton. We will keep you posted with any further updates on this.

The actor said he’d be open to meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump to educate him on the impact of slavery on people of color and how it created systemic abuses and socioeconomic disparities for the last 400 years. He proposed federal tax exemptions for descendants of slaves in the U.S. for the next 400 years.

Also, Howard commented on one of Trump’s most ardent celebrity allies, responding to a question about Nicki Minaj by saying she could help him support this policy. He argued the tax exemptions would create investment opportunities for African American communities and set an example for the world about “how to heal 400 years of bad karma.”

Towards the end of Terrence Howard’s conversation with TMZ, he said he’s “looking forward to becoming president” when asked about voting in the midterms. He added: “If they’re not going to make a difference, somebody’s got to do something. Somebody’s got to do something that’s got some heart.”

Terrence Howard Wants To Be President

A post shared by the Jasmine BRAND (@thejasminebrand)

We’ll see if this actually pans out into a 2028 campaign. While most folks don’t take celebrity statements like this seriously, the election of Donald Trump in 2016 did set a bizarre precedent for fame transitioning into public policy.

Elsewhere, Terrence Howard has rallied against other institutions, namely the structure of Hollywood. He’s spoken in the past about being able to expose a lot of industry secrets, adding to his history of wild comments and claims that tend to go viral.

Terrence Howard’s lofty ambitions might get him in the right rooms to have these conversations. But a lot of folks also doubt this is anything more than ego-boosting. In any case, we’re sure Howard will have plenty to say about the U.S. political climate as the country heads towards midterm elections.

According to PEOPLE, executive producer Farnaz Farjam spoke about this trip with the biography’s author. “They were shooting at a remote location in Uganda when Kanye became paranoid and agitated. ‘He basically got the local police to believe that there were people trying to drug him and so they came and they had guns out. He had them raid everybody’s rooms,’” the book claims.

Allegedly, “one of the policemen had a gun to Kim’s head” during the alleged raid. Farnaz said Kim reacted to the “intense” situation by “having to get a private jet and get my crew out of there.” The producer also said he “forgave Kanye for the Africa fiasco ‘because he lives with bipolar disorder and he was in a manic place.'”

This Uganda trip was two years after the Kim Kardashian Paris robbery, which changed her view on security and celebrity status. A court convicted eight individuals in May of last year.

Kim Kardashian & Kanye West

Elsewhere, Kim Kardashian spoke on the Kanye West relationship in Citizen Kim. “I worry about him all day,” she reportedly expressed. “That’s the father of my kids. I’ll never not worry about him. And that’s a big burden of having kids with someone who you don’t necessarily get along with. My kids would never know that… We manage to coparent without too much conflict.”

Sadly, Kim Kardashian continues to face dangerous situations, and hopefully a recent incident at her Hidden Hills estate with an alleged burglar is the last scare she faces. Citizen Kim seems full of anecdotes and revelations like these, documenting a long and varied public image that keeps growing. We’ll see if there are any responses or further clarifications in the future about this alleged Uganda incident in particular.

The two have shared a few samples of what’s to come on Playaz Only Live Once. Today, they dropped off “A Week In Paris,” a smooth and sultry record that samples “Can’t Tell Me Nothing” by Ye. Additionally, they connected with Young Nudy and Cash Cobain on “Reign” in September and dropped off “Pops” in April. 

While Chainz has been incredibly active over the years, this album will mark his first solo venture since leaving Def Jam. Back in 2022, he released Dope Don’t Sell Itself. Since then, he dropped off a sequel to his joint project with Lil Wayne, connected with Larry June and The Alchemist on Life Is Beautiful, and dished out a soundtrack for his short film, Red Clay, including appearances from Ne-Yo, Lil Yachty, NBA Youngboy, and Ronald Isley and the Isley Brothers.

2 Chainz & Statik Selektah Announce New Album

We’re excited to hear what 2 Chainz will cook up with Statik Selektah on this upcoming body of work, especially since his recent efforts since 2022 have revealed another side to his artistry.

Surely, we’ll be hearing more from Chainz and Statik Selektah before the album drops. Expensive Taste boasts 21 songs in total with an impressive list of features, from Freddie Gibbs, Ab-Soul, Raekwon, Westside Gunn, Joey Bada$$, Busta Rhymes, and more. Chainz and Statik Selektah will also connect on “No Time Soon.”

As reported by The Jasmine Brand on Instagram, excerpts from the new book Citizen Kim: The Woman Who Created The Future raised questions online. It’s a biography of the reality TV star and business mogul by Jonathan Van Meter. In the book, there are revelations from Kim about how she coparents with the Chicago rapper despite not talking to each other pretty much at all these days.

“It’s been pretty smooth for a while,” she reportedly expressed regarding their coparenting dynamic. “I guess because we don’t talk that much. But when we see each other, we give each other a hug.“

It seems like this distance helps them stay cordial despite Kanye West’s past controversies regarding commentary on Kim Kardashian and the SKIMS cofounder’s insights into their bond, which have also caused a stir from time to time.

When Did Kanye West & Kim Kardashian Break Up?

A post shared by the Jasmine BRAND (@thejasminebrand)

She reportedly schedules logistics, visits, and other encounters with her ex-husband via Ye’s wife Bianca Censori or his management team. Also, Kim reportedly has an “open-door policy” through which she invites him for family dinners or offers to leave her house temporarily so Kanye can spend time with their kids.

Per The Jasmine Brand, she also admitted to worrying about her former partner “all day, all the time,” even with tensions between them in the background. Kim reportedly tells her kids their father is “traveling” sometimes when they ask where he’s at, limiting their knowledge of what may be going on in their personal relationship.

“I do everything in my power to forget about all the negative things that happened…” she reportedly expressed. “I want them to think their dad is the greatest.”

Kanye West and Kim Kardashian’s divorce finalized in 2022, and it followed a very turbulent time for the couple. Since then, they have moved onto other romantic partners and often meet to celebrate their children’s achievements and support them despite their breakup.
