Aside from the occasional modeling photos or behind the scene videos, DaniLeigh has been relatively quiet lately. The singer seems to have retreated from posting too often following several controversies that sparked online, but it looks as if her music career is still on track. Her relationship with DaBaby seemed solid before there was a back and forth with his MeMe, one of the mothers of his children, and after persevering, DaniLeigh was hit with the “Yellow Bone” scandal where she faced accusations of colorism.
The Movie artist's personal life seemed to overshadow her applauded visual album and for months now, she's faced speculation that she's with child. Adding fuel to the rumors is the fact that DaniLeigh hasn't been photographed without somehow obstructing the view of her belly, and while she hasn't confirmed or denied that she's pregnant, the public has run with the story.
On Monday (June 14), DaniLeigh resurfaced on Instagram to share a few snapsh..

There is apparent movement on Big Meech's case and 50 Cent is celebrating the good news. The Black Mafia Family co-founder was instrumental in the entertainment industry, specifically Hip Hop, but the company soon found itself under the eye of federal authorities. There were accusations then charges related to drug trafficking and criminal enterprises, and in 2007, both Demetrius “Meech” Flenory and his brother Terry “Southwest T” Flenory were sentenced to 30 years in prison for allegedly leading a nationwide cocaine distribution ring.
The controversial life of Big Meech has been told and retold over the years, but 50 Cent will be at the helm of the BMF series set to run on Starz. Snoop Dogg, La La Anthony, and Empire's Serayah are all reportedly set to star in the series, and Fif got a rejuvenating jolt of inspiration after AllHipHop shared their exclusive news regarding Meech's case.
According to the outlet, Big Meech's 360 months prison sentence was reduced to 32..

He's never hesitated in sharing his adoration for the man who helped free him from jail, and Kodak Black is continuing his lauding of former President Donald Trump. Prior to leaving office, Trump granted dozens of pardons, including a nod to Kodak for his firearms case. The Florida rapper has been eternally grateful for the inclusion and ever since, Kodak has openly praised the former president.
Days ago, Kodak celebrated his birthday in style with a helicopter and a Tesla truck—both custom painted in purple and gold in tribute to the late Kobe Bryant. Monday (June 14) marked Trump's 75th birthday, so Kodak made sure to give his Gemini brother a social media shout-out.

We're inching closer to the release of Pretty B*tch Music and after returning from her artist boot camp, Saweetie is back in action. The Bay Area rapper recently shared her Pretty Summer Playlist: Season 1 after assisting Gwen Stefani on her “Slow Clap” single, and as she ducks and dodges her Quavo-centered controversies, Saweetie is adding her voice to Goat Talk—that is, chatting it up with Complex about her favorites in the industry.
When naming their top rappers, many artists usually stay within the geographical locations of where they grew up and Saweetie didn't stray from the norm.

When it comes to like, mood, do I need to be inspired, do I feel like a bad b*tch, do I…what am I doing?” she prefaced. “I feel like that really changes the perspective of the 'Greatest Rapper of All Time.' 'Cause I'm a mood girl.” Even so, Saweetie found her answer. “For inspiration, I’m saying ..

He remains one of the hardest working men in Hip Hop with a legacy that only a select few rappers can compete with. Compton icon Dr. Dre has seen his fair share of controversies, including his current courtroom drama with his ex-wife, Nicole Young, as they attempt to divvy up their assets in their divorce. While emotions were running high as play-by-plays of their split were being reported on daily at the top of the year, news broke that Dre suffered a brain aneurysm.
Fans awaited news regarding the Aftermath mogul's recovery and within days, Dre was back home. Speculative reports about what caused the health scare ran rampant, and in a recent interview with the Los Angeles Times, Dre shed some light on what he learned from his doctors while offering up advice.

The In The Heights hype has been intense over the last few months as fans counted down the days until the musical arrived. The acclaimed film starred Anthony Ramos, who also made a stellar appearance in Hamilton, Orange is the New Black's Dascha Polanco, legendary actor Jimmy Smits, Stephanie Beatriz, singer Marc Anthony, award-winning performer Lin-Manuel Miranda, and a slew of others as they shared a tale of life in New York City's Washington Heights neighborhood.
Film critics quickly praised the production for its quality, applauding Quiara Alegría Hudes and Lin-Manuel Miranda for delivering a movie that breathed new life into mainstream musical theater. However, some people questioned why there was a lack of dark-skinned Afro-Latinos in roles that weren't background dancers.
Actors and activists came forward with accusations of colorism and in interviews, the In The Heights performers were grilled about the trending topic. Earlier today, Miranda returned with a lette..

Those hoping for their turn at fame often create content or any form of art in the hopes of grabbing attention from the masses. However, not all that glitters is gold and not everything ages well, and Lil Dicky learned the hard way that often, your art can come back to bite you in the butt. He's known for his quirky raps and star-studded collaborations—music that includes the song “Freaky Friday” with Chris Brown. The music video rubbed a few people the wrong way as the pair swapped bodies as Brown sings about not being judged for his past while Dicky roamed around Brown's home only to locate a gun.
Both Rihanna and Karrueche Tran received restraining orders against Brown in domestic violence-related cases, so some weren't amused by the “Freaky Friday” take. However, Lil Dicky defended his friend in a recent interview with GQ.

They may have been spotted hanging out, but Malu Trevejo is clarifying reports that she's romantically involved with Swae Lee. The 18-year-old social media star boasts over 10 million followers on her Instagram page and has a successful singing career, and after videos circulated online showing that she was spending time with the Rae Sremmurd rapper, she jumped on her Instagram Story to share that not all is what it seems.

As fans await any news regarding a possible Friday film, Ice Cube has set his sights on a new role. Cube has previously spoken out about the delays, setbacks, and run-arounds he's been receiving in his quest to gift the world with another installment to the Friday franchise, but that hasn't stopped his hustle. The gangster rapper-turned-actor is continuing on with his silver screen career and Deadline reports that he's set to star in the Kitao Sakurai-directed film, Oh Hell No.
Although it doesn't seem as if negotiations have been finalized, reports state that Cube may be starring in the film opposite music legend and comedic icon Jack Black. Cube is no stranger to tackling successful comedy roles himself, and fans are excited to see what these two can bring to the screen in the family-oriented film.
Deadline reports that the “story follows Sherman (Black), who falls in love with [Will's] (Cube) mom, who has only one thing to say about that, 'Oh hell no.&#..

They've gone down in the music history books as a record-breaking, chart-topping, world touring, hitmaking trio that can never be duplicated, but fans are revisiting Destiny's Child's catalog with caution. Recently, social media lit up with jokes after people began criticizing some of our favorite R&B hits. Many people quipped that those tracks are the reason why some of them got into relationship trouble because the songs were dishing out bad advice, and a 17-year-old classic that received keen attention was Destiny's Child's “Cater 2 U.”
The lyrics go a little something like: “Let me help you / Take off your shoes / Untie your shoe strings / Take off your cufflinks (Yeah) / What you wanna eat, boo? (Yeah) / Let me feed you / Let me run your bathwater / Whatever you desire, I'll supply ya / Sing you a song / Turn the game on / I'll brush your hair / Help you put your do-rag on / Want a foot rub (Yeah) / Want a manicure / Baby I'm yours I wanna c..
