[U.S E-NEWS] Azealia Banks Apologizes To Elon Musk As “Latest Fan-Fiction” Co-Star


Azealia Banks dragged Elon Musk threw a lot over the last week or so. It all began with her staying at his house while waiting to complete a collaboration with his (ex)girlfriend Grimes. The debacle led to her phone being confiscated and threats of legal action. Since then, the rapper is trying to make amends.

The New York native wrote an apology letter to the billionaire. She begins by acknowledging the difficulties the entrepreneur is facing. Elon Musk’s company’s stock market value tanked and he might have to step down as Tesla’s CEO. Banks feels at least partially responsible for his rough patch.

“I feel terrible about everything. This is a strange situation to be in, and I’m not sure how exactly to begin this letter. I guess I could start off by apologizing for all of the painful events you’re endured over the past week, as I feel as though my actions have largely exacerbated them.”

She goes on to express her discomfort with the information that was shared with her about him. Then, she states that she would like to meet up in person and introduce herself properly.

“If you are up for it, I’d like to meet you in person to properly and formally introduce myself to you. After all, we are now the co-stars of pop culture’s latest fan-fiction.”

[U.S E-NEWS] Donald Trump Praises Kim Kardashian For Being A “Good Wife”: “She Did A Great Thing”


Trump makes his admiration public.
President Donald Trump has been rocking with Kanye West for a minute. He has also had the opportunity to spend some time with the rapper’s wife. In his latest speech, the president had some edifying words for Kim Kardashian.

First, Trump addressed Yeezy. He acknowledged how his success has been boosted thanks to the music icon.

“All of a sudden those numbers started going up, up, up, and we did great,” Trump explained. “Now we’re doing great and Kanye West liked me. And that really lifted my [numbers] Kanye West has some real power!”

Then, the praise was directed to the female party of the West couple. Trump insisted upon just how good of a spouse Kim is.

“And he’s got a good wife too in Kim, I’ll tell ya. She really is. She did a great thing, a great thing.”

The “great thing” the president mentioned isn’t clarified. It could involve anything from her building a whole empire on the foundation of an infamous sex tape to her meeting with the president about prison reform. Or maybe he just meant that her choosing Ye as a husband was a good call. Who knows? Trump quickly changed the subject.

This praise is significant considering the fact that the speech completely ignored the John McCain in the wake of his death.

Demi Lovato’s home was targetted while the singer is in rehab.

Earlier this month, it was announced that Demi Lovato would be taking time at a rehabilitation center outside of California after being hospitalized after a drug overdose.

However, while the singer is taking time nurture a solid recover, her home was on the list as a target for a group of thieves looking to take advantage of an empty mansion. According to TMZ, a crew of burglars was arrested shortly after it was revealed that Lovato would be checking into rehab.

According to law enforcement sources, officers found electronic communication about the plans. LAPD has reportedly added extra patrols around Lovato’s home while she’s away. Other sources indicate that the thieves weren’t particularly targeting celebrities, but that Demi’s home was just one target on the list.

At the moment, Demi’s location is at an undisclosed facility, but according to TMZ, it is “one of the nation’s leading facilities for addiction.” This most recent incident was the latest in a string since a relapse that took place in June, after six years of sobriety.

“I have always been transparent about my journey with addiction,” Lovato said in a statement following her overdose. “What I’ve learned is that this illness is not something that disappears or fades with time. It is something I must continue to overcome and have not done yet … I now need time to heal and focus on my sobriety and road to recovery … I look forward to the day where I can say I came out on the other side.”

[U.S E-NEWS] “No F*cking Excuses, I Have A Lisp” – YBN Cordae Message to Bungling Rappers


YBN Cordae has a message to all you lunch pail rappers.

YBN Cordae has a message for all you rappers struggling out the gate. The so called “nerd” of the YBN collective has the articles to prove it, an inhaler for his asthma and an encyclopedic brain. Cordae contends that since he’s short on breath (asthma) he deserves a little more recognition for his accomplishments. Not to mention, Cordae has to work extra hard on his pronunciation because of a speech defect. “Speech police” spend their lifetime trying to correct the misconceptions surrounding the “lisp,” but that doesn’t make it any easier for the subjected person who also aspires to record music.

Cordae followed up his message to struggling rappers by documenting the Young Thug-J. Cole concert at the Staples Center. Cordae outed himself as a J. Cole loyalist right from the onset of his career. His breakout single was in itself a direct response to Cole’s “1985” off KOD. Admittedly I first suspected that Cordae was acting in defiance of J. Cole’s earnest attempt at unity, but that was before I grew to understand his sardonic humour for its intended purpose. His acerbic wit will always give him the appearance of a pariah within his group, but somehow the YBN teens make it work amidst all their differences.

[NG E-NEWS] I Can’t Continue To Be The Best Rapper In Africa All The Time – M.I Abaga


Iconic hip hop artiste, M.I Abaga, has opened up on things surrounding who the best rapper in Africa is. In a recent chat with Sunday Scoop, M.I talked about how Wizkid always refers to him many times as the best rapper in Africa.

The rapper however, admitted he can’t continue to be the best.

M.I said:

“Nasty C is taking rap music to another level right now; he is doing a great job. I cannot count how many times Wizkid has called me the biggest rapper in Africa. It is unwise to want to be called the best all the time. I think my focus now is always to do my best, not to be the best. I am a big fan of Nasty C and I appreciate everything he does.

“Since I called out Nigerian rappers to fix up their lives, I have seen changes. I believe that we have great and talented rappers in Nigeria; I was just trying to wake them up from their slumber.”

[U.S E-NEWS] Kodak Black Sets His Eyes On The College Life


Imprisonment is objectively a challenging time for anyone. Some people get out and stay out, while others aren’t so lucky. In the case of Kodak Black, bets might just be on his achieving the former. Ever since he was released from prison with that new hairdo, the homie seems to have changed. And recently, the next venture the rapper is entertaining involves the college experience.

One of Kodak’s latest tweets asks his fans: “What college should I go to?”

https://twitter.com/KodakBlack1k/status/1033428730104897536

Although the idea of attending college is generally decreasing in popularity, his following did not hesitate to give him suggestions. Many pointed to the entertainer’s own home state of Florida. Others responded with humor.

People probably aren’t worried about having another brother drown in debt from pursuing a college education. Kodak has proved to have a completely different set of values than he did prior to going to prison. He recently ditched 100K worth of performance opportunities to focus on the production of new music. His focus on building the new Kodak Black is undeniable.

The Florida native surprised many people when he studied for, passed his GED and officially earned his High School Diploma. We are rooting for him when it comes to this next academic challenge.

[U.S E-NEWS] Random Fan Runs Onstage During Beyonce And Jay-Z “OTR II” Stop in Atlanta


That much is evidenced through a necessary two-night stop for Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s “On The Run II” tour this weekend in the southern capital. That much is evidenced through the road blockage and major traffic congestion that permeated through every street surrounding the Mercedes-Benz Stadium downtown, and it was very apparent when a fan risked it all and rushed the stage Saturday night.

We must note. Hopping on the stage for your favorite rapper at the local club, a smaller scale venue, even a music festival is warranted, but the amount of guts that comes with successfully executing a plan to run up onstage with the notoriously secure Carters takes a different kind of dedication.

In the clips, Jay-Z and Beyoncé are making their final bow and walk offstage. Soon though, a random man in white is seen hopping onstage and running in the direction of the exit that the couple takes. There’s a bit of confusion at first, but it doesn’t take long for the backup dancers onstage to run and tackle the guy without any questions asked.

https://twitter.com/kenkemp22/status/1033567241013551104

It was clearly a less than effective tactic, the guy didn’t get very far and Beyoncé’s publicist Yvette Noel-Schure has issued a brief statement confirming that all is well.

“Beyoncé and JAY-Z on stage tonight in Atlanta. Thank you to all the fans for your concern,” Noel-Schure wrote. “They are fine and looking forward to the show tomorrow.

Bob Levey/Getty Image

DJ Akademiks is back to stirring the beef between Tekashi 6ix9ine and Trippie Redd. Ak posted a simple status on his social media this weekend, asking fans who they were rooting for in the KSI versus Logan Paul event. The question, although harmless, set off a chain of events. First, Tekashi 6ix9ine responded to Akademiks, writing, “Me vs Trippie next Somone set it up.” His words would obviously get back to Redd, and they did.

Redd responded with a low blow. “Set it up I’ll beat tf outta u on yo dead dad,” replied Trippie. The ongoing feud between Tekashi and Redd seemed to simmer down for a few months, but it appears like this will be the spark that reignites the flame. As if the pure idea of the boxing match wasn’t enough, Akademiks posted evidence that Jake Paul, Logan Paul’s little brother, tried to set up a fight between the two rappers in the past. “Jake Paul wanted to set up Trippie Redd vs Tekashi 69 celebrity boxing match to solve their issues back in may,” tweeted Akademiks. “Who y’all think would win and how many viewers you’d think would tune in.” By the look of things, this is just getting started.

Lil Wayne’s Lil Weezyana fest went down yesterday night (Aug. 25) in New Orleans where Wayne celebrated the 10th anniversary of his iconic album Tha Carter III.

During the set at Champions Square, Wayne went through hits and other songs off his most successful album to date and brought out special guests including Jeezy, Birdman, and Nicki Minaj.

Watch it below.

As we know, Lil Wayne and Birdman have been publicly feuding since late 2014, most of which is related to the release of Wayne’s long delayed album Tha Carter V and unpaid royalties from Cash Money towards the rapper. In March this year, the two were seen hanging out together at a Miami club, which was the first sign of them squashing their beef. Then a few months later in June, the two even hit the studio together.

Wayne brings out Nicki:

[U.S MUSIC] Young Thug – Free Blac Youngsta


Young Thug has shouted out Blac Youngsta in three Instagram videos previews with new music, shared on Wednesday afternoon. “Free Blac Youngsta” Thugger sings, a reference to the multiple felony charges Youngsta faces for allegedly opening fire on Young Dolph’s SUV in February,And sure enough, at 5:55 on the nose, Thugger posted (and then un-posted, and then re-posted) the song “Free Blac Youngsta” to Soundcloud. You can the track, produced by Wheezy and DY of 808 Mafia.

 

The video also sees Thugger talk about being high on percs and a few other things, and overall feels pretty free-wheeling, and more than a bit anthemic. In another video also captioned “#FREEBLACKYOUNGSTA 5:55,” Thugger can be heard once again voicing his distaste for law enforcement while sending a shout-out to everyone locked up—even his enemies, Youngsta has maintained his innocence. His attorney said on Wednesday that the vehicle used in the shooting, rented under Youngsta’s real name of Sammie Marquez Benson and located by police, had been stolen before the incident.
