    Solange won a Grammy for Best R&B Performance for “Cranes In The Sky.” The Knowles family took over the Grammys.  Blue Ivy is destined to be a star with all the inspiration she’s surrounded by.  We love how Beyonce includes Blue in multiple elements of her career.  Check out Beyonce’s Grammy performance:

    Jay-Z recently collaborated with DJ Khaled to deliver the track “I Got The Keys.” Jay was obviously happy with the song because him and Beyonce have teamed up with Khaled for another track.  This time it’s all about confidence and pride.  Check out DJ Khaled’s new track “Shining” featuring Beyonce and Jay-Z:

    Following the show, Beyonce released an official video for her song “Love Drought”:

    Beyonce didn’t stop there.  She also released a video for “Sandcastles”:

  • Walking Dead – Junkyard Group, New Garbage Pail Kids

    Walking Dead – Junkyard Group, New Garbage Pail Kids

    A new junkyard group captured Rick’s group in The Walking Dead‘s ninth episode of season 7, “Rock In The Road.” As Rick and crew enter a clearing, they are immediately surrounded by a group of garbage pail kids.  The group of survivors live in a junkyard with a fighting pit.  This is the first time the group has appeared on The Walking Dead.

    The junkyard group doesn’t appear in the comics.  The group was so awesome, it made Rick smile.  Rick and crew were making progress but then Father Gabriel went missing.  Rick’s group travelled outside the Alexandrian gates to find Father Gabriel but then the junkyard group surrounded them with weapons.

    We’re hoping Father Gabriel is still alive.  Walking Dead fans have been discussing the new group for months.

    Walking Dead fans enjoyed the midseason premiere of the series.  You don’t know what you got until it’s gone!

    The tweet below explains that Rick most likely smiled because he thinks the new group can help him.  The Hilltop and the Kingdom are Rick’s only help in the war against Negan.

    The series needed another element that’s not connected to the comic books.  Don’t miss the next episode of The Walking Dead!

  • How Many Grammys Does Chance The Rapper Have? 2017

    How Many Grammys Does Chance The Rapper Have? 2017

    Chance the Rapper has won three Grammy Awards.  He won a Grammy for Best New Artist, Best Rap Performance and Best Rap Album.  We’re expecting Chance and Drake to collaborate very soon.  After Chance won, Drake texted him from England where he’s currently on tour.  Drake advised Chance to keep creating unforgettable music.

    Best New Artist

    Chance’s won the Grammy for best new artist.  The rapper, whose real name is Chancellor Bennett was nominated alongside Kelsea Ballerini, The Chainsmokers, Maren Morris and Anderson Paak.  While we would give Chance every Grammy if we could, he’s not exactly a new artist.  He’s been active since late 2010.  He released his first mixtape, 10 Day in 2012.

    Best Rap Performance

    Chance won the Best Rap Performance Grammy for his song “No Problem.” The song features 2 Chainz and Lil Wayne.  It was included on Chance’s 2016 mixtape, Coloring Book.  Chance delivers the first verse and then 2 Chainz comes in.  Lil Wayne ends the track with an amazing verse.  
    The beat is what sets the song apart from the competition.  The track is soulful, forcing listeners to feel good and enjoy the moment.  
    The other tracks nominated include “Panda” by Desiigner, “Pop Style” by Drake featuring Jay Z and Kanye West, “All The Way Up” by Fat Joe and Remy Ma featuring Infared and French Montana and “That Part” by Schoolboy Q featuring Kanye West.

  • Kevin Durant – Mahogany Prime Steakhouse OKC

    Kevin Durant – Mahogany Prime Steakhouse OKC

    Kevin Durant visited the Mahogany Prime Steakhouse in Oklahoma City after his Golden State Warriors defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder.  The restaurant is known for its custom-aged U.S. Prime Midwestern Beef steaks.  Durant was seated near his former teammate, Russell Westbrook, yet the two didn’t speak to each other.

    Last month, Durant’s representatives contacted Mahogany’s owner, Dave Osborn, to rent the restaurant out after the Warriors vs. Thunder game.  Durant’s request was denied.  Kevin and a few of his Warriors teammates still ended up at the restaurant after the game.  Mahogany would have made $40,000 if they rented out the entire restaurant but Osborn didn’t make that mistake.

    The following tweet explains that Durant’s request was denied.  The restaurant considered the big picture.  Now that KD is hated in OKC, renting the restaurant out to him would have been bad for business.

    While KD and Westbrook were only 15 feet apart, they were in different sections of the steakhouse.  The former teammates hate each other.  They exchanged fighting words during Saturday night’s game.

    We’re glad KD still decided to eat at the restaurant after his request to rent it out was denied.  He needs to implement the same maturity to make up with Westbrook.

    The Golden State Warriors are looking better than ever.  They’ll most likely play the Cleveland Cavaliers in this year’s NBA Championship.  Do you think Westbrook will ever forgive Durant? Share your thoughts in the comment section below!

  • Fab Melo – 10 Page Paper, Death

    Fab Melo – 10 Page Paper, Death

    Fab Melo’s 10 page paper incident occurred in 2012.  The center was academically ineligible to play basketball after the first semester of his sophomore year at Syracuse.  To restore his eligibility, a professor told Melo that he could turn in extra work to improve a grade that he received in 2011.  Fab had to write a 4-5 page essay that included citations.

    Melo originally received a C- on the paper.  His grade was changed to a B- after he resubmitted the essay.  A year had passed since Melo took the course, raising concern amongst school officials.  An investigation proved that Syracuse’s director of basketball operations, Stan Kissel and the basketball receptionist, Debora Belanger wrote the paper for Melo.

    The paper was 4-5 pages but Syracuse’s basketball coach, Jim Boeheim referred to it as a “10 page paper” during a press conference.

    Fab Melo Death

    On February 11, 2017, the former NBA player was found dead in Brazil.  According to multiple media outlets, the former Syracuse star suffered a heart attack.

    In the tweet above, Danny Ainge describes Melo as a good kid with a big heart.  Ainge played for the Boston Celtics from 1981-1989.  He’s currently the team’s general manager.  Melo played for the Celtics from 2012-2013.

    Melo’s former Syracuse coach, Jim Boeheim sends his condolences in the above tweet.

  • Cam’ron Gun Charge, IG Live

    Cam’ron Gun Charge, IG Live

    Cam’ron’s gun charges are discussed on IG Live.  On Monday, July 29, 2002, Cam’ron was arrested on gun charges.  He was driving a Range Rover in Manhattan, New York when he was pulled over for a traffic violation.  The police officer saw marijuana in the vehicle and then searched the car.  The officer found a gun in the rapper’s vehicle and Cam’ron was arrested.

    Cam’ron was charged for having the .22-caliber pistol, an illegal parking pass and possession of marijuana.  The rapper, whose real name is Cameron Giles, discussed the charges in response to Jim Jones’ interview with Funkmaster Flex.  Jones claims that Cam’ron robbed him but Cam sets the record straight.

    Cam’ron also mentions Carlos Zoo Thompson, one of the Dipset’s former hitmen.  He went to prison for his involvement in a murder.  A 15-year-old boy was killed for selling bootleg Dipset CDs.

    Tricky Ricky Shirts

    In the third video below, Cam’ron reveals why him and Jim Jones started beefing.  Jim met Chrissy Lampkin and fell in love.  At the time, Cam and Jim had numerous women so Cam made fun of Jim for tricking.  Cam’ron made shirts with “Tricky Ricky” on the front of it to make fun of Jim.  Cam passed the shirts out to multiple members of his crew and Jim wasn’t happy.  Cam says that’s when him and Jim’s relationship was ruined.

  • Why Is KD A Cupcake? Meaning, Shirt, Meme

    Why Is KD A Cupcake? Meaning, Shirt, Meme

    Why is KD a cupcake? They were calling Kevin Durant a cupcake because of Russell Westbrook.  Former Oklahoma City Thunder center, Kendrick Perkins called his teammates “cupcake” to motivate them to work harder.  Perkins used the term to call players out for being soft and sweet.  OKC fans were calling KD soft and sweet.

    OKC fans created cupcake shirts and memes to insult KD.  They also sold “Koward” shirts to celebrate Durant’s first return to Oklahoma City.  On Saturday, February 12, 2017, the Golden State Warriors defeated the Thunder 130 to 114.  KD scored 34 points while Westbrook scored 47 points.

    Durant hired extra security personnel for his return to OKC.  Durant was booed by fans throughout the entire game.  Here’s a picture of the cupcake shirt that was worn by OKC fans.

    During the second quarter, Westbrook pushed Durant as KD tried to set a screen.  Kevin wasn’t bothered.  He seems to play better under pressure.  Here’s one of the cupcake memes being shared by OKC fans.  They may have lost the game, but they’re winning the war of words:

    Westbrook will be over Durant’s decision to leave OKC in a few months.  The NBA is a business and Westbrook is immature for taking Durant’s decision personal.

  • Carlos Zoo Thompson – Cam’rom, Diplomats

    Carlos Zoo Thompson – Cam’rom, Diplomats

    Carlos “Zoo” Thompson is a former Diplomats enforcer who appeared on America’s Most Wanted.  He was arrested in 2009 after being on the run for more than three years.  Carlos was brought up because of the beef between Cam’ron and Jim Jones.  Cam’ron responded to Jim Jones on Instagram live and mentioned Thompson’s name.

    Jim Jones recently made a visit to Hot 97 where he was interviewed by Funkmaster Flex.  The interview was very emotional.  Jones called Cam’ron out because he didn’t have his back during a fight at Rucker Park.  Jim recently signed to Roc Nation and it looks like him and Jay-Z have developed a plan to get Jones back in the news.

    Jones explains that he risked his life for Cam’ron multiple times.

    Carlos “Zoo” Thompson was arrested in Sayreville, New Jersey in 2009.  In 2005, Thompson and a group of Dipset enforcers approached 15-year-old, Phoenix Garrett because he was selling bootleg Dipset CDs in New York City.  Thompson told Phoenix to stop selling the bootleg CDs but the teen refused.

    Carlos advised one of his associates to grab a gun from his.  Thompson gave 13-year-old, L’mani Delima the gun and told him to shoot Phoenix.

    We’re glad Carlos is off the streets.  The horrific truth is coming out about the Dipset.  Fans wondered how the crew fell off but they should be asking how they’re not all in prison.

    The video below shows Jim’s interview with Funkmaster Flex:

  • Nona Monroe – Gucci Mane

    Nona Monroe – Gucci Mane

    Nona Monroe is Gucci Mane’s ex-girlfriend.  She currently works as a stripper in Detroit, Michigan.  Monroe was caught having sex at the Ace of Spades strip club locating in Detroit.  We’re glad Gucci Mane has moved on.  The rapper recently proposed to his girlfriend, Keyshia Ka’oir and the beautiful model said yes!

    Gucci Mane has other things to worry about.  Waka Flocka Flame recently dropped the diss song “Was My Dawg.” In the track, he takes several shots at Gucci.  Waka doesn’t call Gucci out by name but there’s no doubt that he’s talking about Gucci in the song.

    Here’s a picture of Nona Monroe:

    Gucci’s career has taken off while Waka’s popularity has stayed consistent.  In a recent interview, Waka explains that he was never really close to Gucci.  Waka calls Gucci out for being scared to come to East Atlanta.  He says that Gucci hasn’t filmed a video in East Atlanta since he was released from prison.

    Gucci Mane is one of Atlanta’s most popular rappers.  Every rapper from Atlanta has a connection to Gucci.  While he’s respected by most, Waka is sick and tired of Gucci.  Check out Waka Flocka’s new Gucci Mane diss “Was My Dawg”:

  • Deelishis Baby Father – Jim Colmer

    Deelishis Baby Father – Jim Colmer

    Deelishis baby father is Jim Colmer aka Comer.  If you were watching the VH1’s Flavor of Love marathon then you most likely had dozens of questions you were too young to care about a decade ago.  Colmer attended Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan.  The model, whose real name is Chandra Davis, was born and raised in Detroit.

    Deelishis has never been shy about her personal life.  A few years ago she revealed that rapper, Drake was the best sex she ever had.  The image below shows Jim Colmer:

    Deelishis shocked the world when she revealed that Drake could put it down.  We guess that’s why he called himself the “Champagne Papi.” Here’s a pic of Drake admiring Deelishis’ assets:

    Jim is the father of Deelishis daughter, Jasmine Davis.  Here’s a recent picture of her:

    Deelishis has been through the most when it comes to relationships.  In 2013, her ex-husband, Orlando Gordon, was sentenced to 16 years in prison.  The drug kingpin is crazy.  In 2012, he attacked Deelishis and she had to jump out a window to get away from him.  Shortly after, she filed for divorce.  Orlando also attacked comedian, Michael Blackson, who was a guest at Deelishis’ house.
