Following the collaboration with Lamar and Keem, Momo Boyd dropped an EP, and she has been gaining steam ever since. The artist is on the verge of superstardom, and with a Keem and Kendrick co-sign behind her, the sky is the limit.

On Sunday, Boyd was in Los Angeles for the BET Awards, where she actually got to perform on stage with Keem. During the performance, fans online remarked on their chemistry, and it led to some speculation about whether or not these two are a couple.

It actually started before the BET Awards even began. In the clip below, Baby Keem interrupted Momo Boyd’s interview on the red carpet. The two were seen hugging each other, and it was clear that Baby Keem was very excited to be in her presence.

Baby Keem And Momo Boyd At The BET Awards

Following the awards, Momo Boyd took to social media with some photos of herself with Keem, writing “some true flirtaholics.” While they might be playing coy with the nature of their relationship, there is no doubt that they are playing into some of the speculation right now.

Baby Keem and Momo Boyd are two artists who are going to be around for a long time. Keem’s rap bona fides are established at this point. Meanwhile, Boyd is exceptionally talented, and when she finds her sound, she will be tough to compete with.

As for the relationship rumors, as long as these two continue to be spotted together, the longer this will go on. Only they have the power to set the record straight, once and for all.

Since 2018, LeBron has been playing for the Los Angeles Lakers, to varying degrees of success. While he won a championship with the franchise in the bubble during the 2020 NBA Playoffs, the Lakers have been subjected to numerous first-round exits and failed playoff bids.

At 41 years old, James is not getting any younger. However, he still has a hunger to play NBA basketball. With free agency about to begin, LeBron has made one thing clear: he will no longer be a Laker. According to Shams Charania, James’ long-time agent, Rich Paul, has confirmed with the Lakers that LeBron would like to play somewhere else.

LeBron James Is Going His Own Way

At this time, it is unclear how many years James has left in the tank. However, he could be on the verge of a farewell tour soon, especially if his next contract is only for one season.

Numerous teams are looking to sign James right now. The Golden State Warriors are at the top of that list, as James would be joining Steph Curry. Meanwhile, the Cleveland Cavaliers are also a viable option. The Cavs are LeBron’s hometown team, and the franchise that drafted him in 2003. Finishing his career in Cleveland would be the perfect sendoff.

For now, it is unknown how this will affect Bronny James. The Lakers drafted Bronny as a favor to LeBron. Now, the young star in the making will have to figure things out on his own.

Free agency officially begins this evening at 6 PM EST. It will be fascinating to see where LeBron decides to go, and if he ends up surprising some people in the process.

Sometimes, these posts on X create some real problems when it comes to geopolitical relations for his country. Oftentimes, he has had to delete his Tweets and even apologize for them.

Now, however, General Kainerugaba has found himself in a new predicament involving Beyoncé and Jay-Z. In a now-deleted X post, the general revealed that he wants Jay-Z to surrender his wife to him. Furthermore, he stated that the two would engage in a fight for the singer’s love if Hov doesn’t meet his demands.

“I’m giving Jay-Z one week to surrender my wife to me. Or else I take this matter to the UN,” General Kainerugaba wrote.

General Muhoozi Kainerugaba Makes His Demands

This is not the first time that General Kainerugaba has revealed his love for Beyoncé. In 2025, he made numerous posts in a similar vein, though they did not receive as much attention at the time.

One could argue that these Tweets are concerning. After all, a high-ranking General in Uganda is making threats on social media, with Beyoncé and Jay-Z at the center of them. That is always going to garner some attention and eyebrow raises.

Jay-Z has not responded to General Kainerugaba, and we doubt that he will. Whether or not he even knows about these tweets is completely unknown.

Given his controversial past, it’s doubtful that General Kainerugaba will be putting Twitter down anytime soon. Although from a diplomatic perspective, we’re sure there are some folks within Uganda who wish he would.

Throughout his time on the airwaves, the radio host has been particularly critical of President Donald Trump and the MAGA movement as a whole. Quite frankly, there is a lot to criticize when it comes to the current President and those who surround him.

This weekend, July 4th will mark the 250th anniversary of the United States. To celebrate, Donald Trump Jr. is hosting some musical performances at his private club. 50 Cent, Ja Rule, Busta Rhymes, and Timbaland are all set to perform.

On his show, Ebro spoke about how disappointing this is, especially when you consider the kind of crowd Don Jr. is going to bring in.

Ebro Is Not A Fan

Not only will the crowd not care for hip-hop, but they are also likely to be openly hostile towards it. In Ebro’s mind, that should be enough for people like 50 Cent to stay away from the event.

On the flip side of this, Ebro tried to interpret the actions of these artists in a positive light, even if it’s almost impossible to do. For instance, he suggested that perhaps the artists are simply there for business connections as opposed to political leanings. Even if this is the case, Ebro still thinks it’s wack for these esteemed artists to go there.

Ebro certainly isn’t the only person disappointed in these hip-hop legends. For the most part, fans are just disheartened to see the Trump administration gain legitimacy from hip-hop heavyweights.

While some artists may have a change of heart and drop out, that does not seem likely, at this juncture.

This week, the podcast host spoke about a couple of topics that had to do with this weekend’s BET Awards. As many already know, the BET Awards went down in Los Angeles on Sunday, with many big winners.

Among those winners were SZA and Doechii, who got the HER Award. During their speech, Druski called for the saxophonist to play them out. It was all meant to be in good fun, although TDE Punch didn’t see it that way. He even went so far as to call Druski weird on social media.

Mal Talks TDE and Kendrick Lamar

As Mal explained on his show, TDE Punch went a bit far with the assessment. He also cited the fact that on the West Coast, calling someone “weird” is grounds for a fight. He felt as though it was an overreaction to the situation, although he certainly understands why Punch would be protective of his artists.

Meanwhile, Mal also addressed the fact that Kendrick Lamar won the award for Best Male Hip-Hop Artist. Mal felt as though this was the wrong move, especially since Kendrick didn’t release much last year. He also used this as a way to talk about Hip-Hop’s future and how newer artists aren’t getting the shine needed to carry the genre forward.

“Hip Hop is in a DANGEROUS place…. We talk about Best Male Hip Hop Artist & Kendrick winning… Kendrick didn’t put out MUCH in the year for this category,” Mal said.

Ultimately, it is an interesting conversation to have. The Big Three continue to dominate rap discourse, while up-and-coming talents are put on the back burner. It is unfortunate, and one has to wonder if it will ever change.

Over the weekend, Smollett went viral for a performance he gave on stage. Some felt like his vocals and his dance moves were lacking. With everyone giving their two cents on the performance, 50 felt like it was the right time to jump in. In fact, he invoked the Power and Empire beef that used to overtake the airwaves.

“See I told you POWER was the s—,” 50 Cent said. “No you want to watch Empire. Now look this is all your fault. LOL.”

It was yet another example of 50 Cent kicking someone while they were already down. He’s done this a lot over the years, and his targets have mostly just taken it in stride. For some, defeating the troll means trolling back. Smollett was no different, as he came through with a well-timed clapback thanks to his publicist.

Jussie Smollett Hits Back

“We hope he had a happy Pride…” publicist Pamela Sharp said in a statement to Entertainment Weekly. Smollett just needed seven words to make his point. Some of the best clap backs are the ones where very little is actually said.

Despite the unfortunate virality of his performance, Smollett is clapping back at 50 Cent at the right time. The legendary rapper is already under fire for his upcoming performance at a MAGA club hosted by Donald Trump Jr. The sentiment around Fif is already negative, and now, Smollett feels like he has the moral upper hand.

Whether or not this back and forth continues, remains to be seen.

4xtra was a former host on No Jumper, who lost numerous fingers in a fireworks accident. It was a tragic situation, although Adam22 made light of it on his podcast. To add insult to injury, Adam laughed about it alongside 4xta’s enemies. This subsequently led to a very public falling out, in which 4xtra and Adam22 made diss tracks about one another. Adam’s was infamously called “Fireworks Safety Tips.”

Recently, 4xtra was back on No Jumper, where he got to hash things out with Adam. It was here that he outlined his feelings and why Adam’s mockery hurt him so much.

4xtra And Adam22 Hash Out Their Beef

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by No Jumper (@nojumper)

4xtra notes that Adam’s diss track really set him over the edge. He even admitted that there were times when he wanted to kill Adam. Despite these admissions, Adam didn’t really acknowledge the hurt feelings. Instead, he continued to make fun of the situation, asking 4xtra if he thought the diss track was hard.

It’s yet another example of Adam22 using friends and former friends for content, instead of being apologetic. 4xtra was vulnerable in that moment, and in the end, the whole thing was played off as one big joke.

At this time, it remains to be seen whether or not 4xtra will stick around the No Jumper orbit. No matter what, you can’t help but empathize with someone who lost their fingers in a tragic accident.

However, it hasn’t always been good times between these two. During Ye’s media tour a few years ago, he called Travis a clone. Meanwhile, amid Ye’s anti-semitic streak, Scott distanced himself, just as many others did.

These days, the two are back on good terms. Scott was even featured on Ye’s song “FATHER,” which was featured on the new album, BULLY. Last night in Los Angeles, the two got to perform the song together at Crypto.com Arena.

This was all thanks to Don Toliver, who was in Los Angeles for the second night in a row as part of his OCTANE tour.

Kanye West x Travis Scott

Ye came out first, and as you can imagine, he received a massive ovation from the crowd. No one was expecting this to happen, and the reactions proved that. Ye began performing a few songs, and once he got to “FATHER,” there was some anticipation that Travis might come out.

Just before his verse, Scott could be seen making his way to the stage, which led to another massive ovation. It was a pretty cool moment, and one that these fans will not soon forget.

Toliver has worked with Ye before. Meanwhile, Toliver is still signed to Scott’s Cactus Jack label. Given this information, seeing the three on stage together shouldn’t be that shocking. However, it was still an unexpected moment, and for these fans, were sure the cameos alone were worth the price of admission.
