  • Taquari Hatch – Lil Boosie Brother

    Taquari Hatch – Lil Boosie Brother

    Lil Boosie’s brother, Taquari Hatch, stole more than $360,000 from him.  He did so by making fraudulent wire transfers.  He was most likely hoping Boosie’s cancer diagnosis would make him unable to pay attention to his funds.  Boosie has been looking better than ever and his brother could end up serving some serious time.

    Taquari slipped up by mentioning his wife and the bank knew that Boosie wasn’t married.  Taquari’s mistake was a blessing in disguise.  If he wasn’t caught, he may have ended up stealing more than $1 million from his older brother.  If his brother was a part of his management team he could argue that the money was being transferred for business.

    These charges should have come a long time ago.  Last year, Boosie revealed that someone stole money from his account via Instagram.  He claimed that Capital One was unprofessional but it looks like Boosie is the one who was actually unprofessional.  The rapper should have had people watching people.  His accountant should have been watching his funds and he should have made stronger relationships with the bank’s employees.

  • Boycott Breakfast Club – Transgender, Lil Duval

    Boycott Breakfast Club – Transgender, Lil Duval

    Lil Duval’s comments during a recent Breakfast Club interview has people boycotting the radio show.  The comedian said that he would kill a transgender person if the individual tricked him into sleeping with him.  Charlamagne laughed at Duval but did tell him that he couldn’t say that because it would be a hate crime.

    DJ Envy and Angela Yee were laughing.  Each time we think we’re making progress something like this happens.  Transgender rights are human rights, there is no separation.  You’re free to think anyway you want but once you share your ignorant mindset with the world you will be held accountable.

    The timing of news these days is amazing.  R. Kelly and Usher made headlines within days of each other and now it’s Bobby Valentino and Lil Duval.  The tweet below explains that the same individuals who are dragging Duval were laughing at Bobby V.

    The tweet above makes sense but that doesn’t mean Duval shouldn’t be called out for his ignorant comments.  We all need to check ourselves to make sure we’re not judging others.

    Jukebox and Kanan held Ghost’s son, Tariq, for ransom but Kanan can’t be trusted.  Kanan makes Ghost rob his own stash house.  This will definitely make life difficult for Tommy.  Ghost may have to go back to the streets to pay back the money he had to give Kanan.

    Kanan didn’t care about his own son, Shawn, because he was “soft.” He cares about Ghost’s son, Tariq and finally tells him the truth.  Jukebox threatens to kill Tariq so Kanan kills her.

  • Bobby Valentino – Transgender? Gay?

    Bobby Valentino – Transgender? Gay?

    The video at the end of this article claims that Bobby Valentino refused to pay a transgender for services.  The video is causing people to believe that Bobby V. is gay.  I doubt the rumors are true.  Bobby has too much money to be leaving without paying for anyone’s services.  The singer has been working hard since the 90s.

    In 2015, there were rumors that Bobby was dating Jhonni Blaze.  Their relationship didn’t work out.  Jhonni was recently spotted on a date with Empire‘s Bryshere Y. Gray.  The video shows the woman kicking Bobby out an apartment.  This month has been crazy: First R. Kelly, then Usher and now Bobby Valentino.

    The following tweet calls black people out for the way in which they’re handling this situation.  While I agree that being transphobic is wrong, I expected this reaction.  If Bobby didn’t want this information to leak he should have paid his debts.

    If you’re not familiar with Bobby V., some the singer’s most popular songs include “Slow Down”, “Anonymous” and “Pimpin All Over The World.”

  • Spurs Offer For Kyrie Irving

    Spurs Offer For Kyrie Irving

    The San Antonio Spurs were one of the many teams that made a trade offer for Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Kyrie Irving.  The details of the trade were not released but the Spurs most likely offer Danny Green, Dejounte Murray and LaMarcus Aldridge for Iman Shumpert and Kyrie Irving.  The Cavs rejected the offer and Kyrie is still in Cleveland.

    LeBron James recently recruited Derrick Rose to Cleveland but the Cavs will need more help than that if they plan to beat the Golden State Warriors.  James isn’t the young, injury-free player he used to be.  If the Cavaliers don’t receive a top-notch player for Kyrie and lose LeBron next year, they’ll be one of the worse teams in the league.

    I think Kyrie will end up in New York, playing alongside Carmelo Anthony.  If he thinks life as a Cavalier was bad, life with the Knicks will be horrible.  James has made everyone hate Dan Gilbert.  James is one of the players who exercised his rights and Kyrie is doing the same.  If there’s one person you shouldn’t feel sorry for in this situation it’s LeBron James.

  • Rick Ross – Angela Yee Picture

    Rick Ross – Angela Yee Picture

    Rick Ross was feeling himself on The Breakfast Club.  The rapper made several inappropriate comments to Angela Yee and took the ridiculous picture below.  The pic shows the Miami native grabbing Angela with his tongue out.  The picture broke Twitter with many people calling Charlemagne and DJ Envy out for ignoring the situation.

    Rick Ross was also called out for comments he made about signing a female rapper.  Angela asks him why he hasn’t signed any females and Ross explains that he wouldn’t be able to keep the relationship professional.  Ross has apologized since making the horrific comments.  He has a mother, sister and daughter but didn’t think twice before making the idiotic comments.

    The tweet below explains that it’s not Angela Yee’s job to fix Rick Ross’ mindset.  I agree with the comment but I do think it’s Angela’s job to call Ross out for being inappropriate.

    Angela indirectly gives other men permission to act improper by failing to call Ross out.  More importantly, young boys and girls who watch the interview will think the way Ross acted was acceptable.  Angela had Ross’ back, explaining that she has known him for a long time and didn’t feel uncomfortable.

  • Justin Bieber Selena Gomez Tattoo

    Justin Bieber Selena Gomez Tattoo

    Justin Bieber’s Selena Gomez tattoo reminds us of the former couple’s relationship.  Selena is now in an amazing relationship with The Weeknd while Bieber continues to search for a new bae.  Justin tried to get the tattoo changed so the woman on his arm wouldn’t look like Selena but he’s not fooling anyone.

    I thought Selena and Justin would end up getting back together but it doesn’t look like that will happen.  Selena recently released the video for her new song “Fetish” featuring Gucci Mane.  The video gained millions of views on YouTube a few hours after it was posted.

    Check out Selena’s new video for her hit song “Fetish”:

    While Selena’s career is blossoming, Justin has been struggling lately.  Justin cancelled his Purpose tour because he decided to rededicate his life to Christ.  A day later, Bieber ran over a photographer as he was leaving a church in Beverly Hills.  Justin should give Kanye West a call for some advice.  Kanye has had difficulties with the paparazzi and he also cancelled his last tour.

    Selena Gomez has nothing but positive things to say about Justin in the following interview:

  • Briana From Growing Up Hip Hop, Mary J. Blige Step Daughter

    Briana From Growing Up Hip Hop, Mary J. Blige Step Daughter

    Briana was seen on episode 2 of Growing Up Hip Hop‘s third season, “Bad and Boogie.” She explains her confrontation with Angela Simmons to Kristinia DeBarge.  At DeBarge’s party, Angela doesn’t recall meeting Briana and Briana takes it person.  Angela asks Briana how old she was when they met the first time and Briana tells her that she doesn’t even know how old she is now.

    Check out the scene below:

    Briana from Growing Up Hip Hop is Mary J. Blige’s step daughter.  In the sixth episode of season 2, “Busta Crime” we see her in the hospital.  Briana Latrise sadly had a fight with her boyfriend.  The episode starts with Kristinia DeBarge visiting Briana in the hospital.  On previous occasions, Briana has told Kristinia about her boyfriend’s jealousy issues.

    Once Kristinia arrives at the Emergency Room, Briana gets very emotional.  She explains that her and her boyfriend had a horrible argument after Andre’s party.  She starts to cry as she reveals that her boyfriend had her pinned down on the ground while he was hitting her in the face.

    If there is one positive aspect of this story it’s the support Briana receives from her friends.  Kristinia consoles her at the hospital and gives her great advice.  DeBarge tells Latrise to leave to get away from her abusive boyfriend.  It may seem like obvious advice yet many victims of abuse give their partner a second chance.

    As soon as Boogie and his girlfriend, Luna read about the incident, they call Briana to let her know that they got her back.  In 2013, Boogie’s ex-girlfriend accused him of strangling her.  We’re praying for Briana and hope she gets through this difficult situation.

  • John Hill Jr. – Boonk Dead?

    John Hill Jr. – Boonk Dead?

    The rumor that John Hill Jr. aka Boonk is dead is false.  Boonk recently ended up in jail after stealing doughnuts from the Dunkin’ Donuts in Miami Gardens.  Scroll to the end of this article to hear his song “Mutton.” The doughnut tray was worth $38 total.  John stole them to create a video he could share on social media.

    Boonk teaches us that “I was doing it for social media” is not a valid excuse after committing a crime.   If it was everyone would use the excuse after getting caught doing a crime.  Some consider Hill, who is currently 20-years-old, a marketing genius while others think he’s an idiot.  Richard Branson teaches us that you have to do something crazy to get attention but Boonk will end up in jail before he gets famous.

    The tweet below explains that Boonk deserves life in prison.  There’s nothing worst than telling on yourself and that’s exactly what John’s Instagram account does.  If he doesn’t calm down I could definitely see him doing some serious jail time.  He may consider the videos a joke but there are young kids that watch them and imitate him.

    Listen to Boonk’s track “Muttin”:
