It is easy to see why, given the fact that there is still a lot that we do not know about this tour. Upon the tour’s announcement, there were no dates or locations given. Furthermore, there was very little information about how to cop tickets.

Over the weekend, a website was created containing a countdown. This countdown pointed towards an announcement at noon today. Well, that announcement has officially been made, and it should excite fans quite a bit.

Jenae recently traveled to Tanzania with her fiancé, Joe McCann, to celebrate her 31st birthday. She shared her final social media post on April 5, captioning a picture of herself with a giraffe: “Chapter 31 and I’m exactly where I need to be.”

What Happened To Ashlee Jenae?

On Sunday, her family confirmed that she was found unresponsive in her villa and taken to a nearby hospital, where she was pronounced dead. “Nothing about this loss feels real. One moment she was celebrating love and life in truly Ashly fashion, and the next, she was gone. The suddenness, the unanswered questions, and the distance from home have made this tragedy even more overwhelming for our family,” they wrote in a statement. “At this time, there is an active investigation into the circumstances surrounding Ashly’s suspicious passing. Although we have many questions, we are placing our trust in the officials in Zanzibar and are working closely with them as we seek clarity and answers.”

They concluded: “We respectfully ask that any information not directly provided by our family be treated as unverified and not considered factual at this time.” The reference to “unanswered questions” has sparked plenty of suspicion about the circumstances of her death on social media.

Ashlee Jenae’s parents have since sat down with CBS News for an interview about their daughter’s death. They revealed that McCann allegedly informed them that she was in the hospital. He is not facing any charges in connection with her passing. The parents added that they intend to travel to Tanzania to get a better idea of what happened.

Shortly after the shooting, Detroit artist AllStar JR took to social media to do a bit of taunting. He shared a series of photos of himself at a jewelry store on Instagram, raising eyebrows with his caption. “Had To Shoot To The D And Get New Ice Cuz My Mans Ben 10 Took Some Of My Stuff To The Hospital With Him #JRClosedTheElevatorOnRon #OG3LeftThemN****s #AllThatPlaying,” he wrote.

Of course, this led to theories that AllStar JR was allegedly involved in the shooting somehow. While this is unconfirmed, he only compounded the speculation this week when he announced a new challenge.

Who Shot NBA Ben10?

In a clip shared by Akademiks TV on Twitter/X, he offers $20K to whoever wins the challenge, which involves lying on the floor as if they had just been shot.

Lieutenant R. Wilkins provided the public with an update shortly after the shooting, describing the altercation that occurred beforehand and explaining where the investigation was.

“So, what we know right now is our suspect, who we don’t know who he is right now… was at this location, and had a confrontation with a couple guys,” he said in part. “It appeared from what they were doing was that they were trying to take his chains. We don’t know if they knew him or what that was, but it appears possible they knew this guy. And they were in the process of trying to rip his chains off.”

“Again, the investigation just now starting,” he continued. “But investigators are going to get over here and try to figure out how it occurred. We got some folks on the scene who are talking to us. We got some good video.”

Throughout the years, the artist has been very forthcoming about the fact that it is difficult for him to stay monogamous. For the most part, he is someone who is constantly cheating on his partners. Furthermore, he has no issues with admitting that. On camera, he will just come out and say point-blank that he cheats, and that he doesn’t really feel any remorse about it. Somehow, he has convinced his romantic partners that this is fine and just a matter of who he is.

Recently, Blueface was on a live stream where he was asked about his cheating escapades and whether or not he admits it right away. Blue noted that he will tell his partner if they ask, but for the most part, he goes by a don’t ask don’t tell policy.

Blueface Chases The Thrill

As for why he cheats, it is clear that Blue is very much a thrill seeker. He claims that he gets a rush from doing it. Having sex with someone you’re not supposed to be sleeping with is akin to skydiving for him. The girls who asked him the question appeared to be a bit scandalized by his answer. That said, he is being honest, which you have to appreciate… sort of.

Whether or not Blueface is going to change his ways is something that remains to be seen. However, given how things are working for him, that is kind of doubtful right now. Whatever the case may be, Blue is someone who understands that sex sells.

While his music career may not be as lucrative as it once was, he has been able to turn his familial drama into a career. Sometimes, you just gotta do what you gotta do.

The man fighting for his chains allegedly pulled out a pistol and began shooting randomly as a result. Two people ended up getting hit, including Ben10. His mother took to social media after the shooting to express gratitude that her son was not killed. This resulted in serious backlash, as some social media users felt like her post was insensitive. NBA YoungBoy’s mother, Sherhonda Gaulden, quickly came to her defense.

“Y’all some stupid dumba** people,” she declared earlier this week, as captured by 9MagTV. “How the f*ck y’all get mad cuz Ben mama said thank God her son alive? How the f*ck y’all get mad cuz somebody say thank God they son alive. You f*cking right. Thank God your son alive.”

“B*tch, if it was y’all son, y’all would say the same thing,” Gaulden continued. “B*tch don’t ever come for mine.”

“Mamas is the ones who push their motherf*cking a**ses out and the mamas is the ones they got to set up there with them and the mamas is the ones that pray for them and that’s they damn children that God gave them,” she concluded. “So guess what? Don’t worry about me and mine baby. I don’t give a f*ck what mine do… They mine.”

Lieutenant R. Wilkins spoke with reporters shortly after the shooting, describing the altercation that led up to it and how the investigation was going.

“The investigation is just now starting,” he said at the time. “But investigators are going to get over here and try to figure out how it occurred. We got some folks on the scene who are talking to us. We got some good video.”

However, every so often, he finds himself back in the news for one reason or another. For instance, he was recently called out after targeting J. Cole with some rage bait. Given the fact that Cole tried to sit down with Pump years ago, this felt completely and totally out of line. Yet another reminder that clout is one hell of a drug.

Now, Pump is back, although this time, he finds himself weighing in on the Gucci Mane and Pooh Shiesty situation. Shiesty, his father, and Big 30 have been accused of robbing Gucci Mane at gunpoint. Since that time, Gucci has released a song called “Crash Dummy,” which has been hit with widespread criticism.

Over the weekend, Pump sought to make the story about himself. Clearly, he thinks that he is an aggrieved party here, regardless of whether or not it is delusional to think so.

Lil Pump Goes Off on Gucci Mane

In the video above, Pump calls Gucci Mane a “bozo” for snitching on Pooh Shiesty, and by extension, himself. He then goes on to say that he is going to take the 1017 chain that he was gifted, and flush it down the toilet.

Given where Pump is in his career, perhaps it would be better to pawn it off or resell it instead. Flushing it down the toilet would probably be a huge regret later on down the line.

Ultimately, this is the kind of analysis that one would expect from Lil Pump in this situation. He is lacking a bit of self-awareness here, but that has never really been his thing to begin with. His attempts to be like 6ix9ine have largely been a failure.

Sinthoro’s death came after his latest song, “Slidin,” started blowing up on social media. 50 Cent even gave it a co-sign on his Instagram Story, last month. “I look on the phone and say, ‘What, 50?’” Sinthoro said on the podcast, Talk Ya Talk, afterward. “I said, ‘What?!?’” Lloyd Banks, Rich The Kid, and other artists have also supported the track online as well.

Sinthoro Upper’s Music Career

Sinthoro’s friend, Anthony Mabry, spoke with The Daily News about his passing and discussed his work in music. “He was doing the music so long and they just put his music on the radio,” he said. “He was grinding all of his life … God finally gave him his blessing within the month of this happening.”

Mabry also spoke about the impact Sinthoro had on the local community. “It’s devastating for the community because we were all rooting for him and he finally got his shot and now he was taken away,” Mabry said. “He is 43 and people were doubting him, people saying, ‘Pass the mic.’ But he stayed with it. And he was finally getting that taste — and it’s like, you took it from him… That’s like a brother to me, my best friend. I’m just so hurt, man. Whenever you saw him, you saw me.”

Sinthoro’s apartment was located near Fort Greene Park in Brooklyn. On Monday, fans laid out dozens of candles as a memorial to the late rapper. “Kids came by his memorial and literally broke down and cried. The kids loved him. He just had a good connection with them,” Mabry said. “He was a people person. Kids loved him, mothers loved him, grandmothers loved him. He just had a good heart.”

However, he decided to take a long break following the release of the album. Just last month, he returned with his new album Ca$ino. Unfortunately, for Keem, the album was not what everyone was expecting. After four and a half years, he returned with a short album that didn’t have the bangers or the range that fans were hoping for.

The album’s sales have dropped off a cliff, and you would be hard-pressed to find the album on any charts. Meanwhile, even the song with Kendrick Lamar is struggling to catch on. For some, this entire rollout was a major disappointment, and fans do not know where Keem goes from here.

With that being said, it appears as though Baby Keem has been listening to the chatter. We say this because on Monday night, he took to X, where he offered up a reaffirmation of his status in the rap game.

Baby Keem Takes To X

“not bout to keep pretending like I’m not the best n**,” Keem wrote. “Not going no where don’t worry I’m mad now.”

Clearly, Baby Keem has been listening to the criticism, and he isn’t just going to wait around and take it. Ultimately, he has the power to change the narrative. However, in order to do so, he is going to have to keep making music. He’s also going to have to make sure that a four-and-a-half-year hiatus never happens again.

We still very much live in a microwave society. If you aren’t reminding people of your existence, they will forget about you. It is a harsh reality, although it is the one that we live in. It’s a tough place to be, and only time will tell how Keem responds.

“Hold on, let me stop,” she then stated, as seen in a clip shared by @theessenceofit7 on Twitter/X. “B*tch, I might be pregnant.”

For now, it’s unclear if Cardi was being serious or just trolling. Per usual, fans have plenty of opinions. “Ain’t no wayyyy,” one commenter writes. “Welp at least we got the album and tour this time,” another claims. Someone else simply says, “CARDI STOP PLAYING WITH ME.”

Is Cardi B Single?

As for who Cardi is currently romantically involved with, if anyone, that remains a mystery. Cardi B’s viral onstage quip, however, took place just a few days after Stefon Diggs sparked rumors that they’ve reunited. He did so by attending her tour stop in D.C. alongside his mother and brother. The trio appeared to have a blast. Diggs was even spotted chatting briefly with the femcee after the two of them left the same club at roughly the same time later that night.

This cleared up a lot of speculation about where the two of them stand at this point, which has been a hot topic of debate since they decided to go their separate ways earlier this year.

Cardi’s pregnancy joke also comes shortly after her other ex, Offset, got shot outside of a Florida casino. His injuries were not life-threatening, and he appears to be well on his way to recovery. According to reports, the “Enough” performer checked on him while he was in the hospital being treated. For now, details of the purported conversation have not been made public.
