Tha Carter V: The Good, Bad & Ugliest Reactions To Lil Wayne’s Latest Album

Source: Kevin Winter / Getty Lil Wayne fans have been waiting years for Tha Carter V to drop, and he finally gave them all what they’ve been wanting on Thursday night. As promised, Weezy released C5 on the night of his birthday, which pretty much added to the anticipation of the already highly anticipated album. If fans weren’t thirsty for it before, they were dehydrated earlier this week when Wayne added fuel to the fire and teased the album release date in an impromptu video he put out. Thank goodness he delivered; and the 23-track body of work has everyone and their mama talking about Wayne like it’s 2008. Die hard Weezy fans are just hype to get new music from their GOAT: if Carter V is trash we not admitting to it. idc. — Levi (@CountyBoySavage) September 27, 2018 Everyone else is just glad the wait is over, for sanity’s sake”. One young lady even tweeted , “I’m glad Carter V finally dropped so y’all can quit begging” C5 has been out for less than twelve hours and some folks all already calling it one of Weezy’s best: “Carter V is Everything!!! Don’t ever say Wayne ain’t the Best!!” – @1Goal1Dream “I’m finding it hard to pick a favorite on the Carter V. I swear everything is so goooood” .- @dee_sackey “Yall can say Carter V ain’t hittin if you want to be we all know the truth so cut it out” – @Slim_theGoat While others are on the fence: “After one listen I liked maybe 3 songs on that Carter V. I’ll have to run it back again and see if that improves but I doubt it.” – @LukeJamesBGN “I think people are hyped Tha Carter V finally dropped & it’s clouding their judgement ” – @893CP “Listened to the Carter V.. wasn’t moved” – @32assist “3 songs in and tha carter V is already trash… lil Wayne will never be the same smh” – @mpuggzz So many things have held up the release of C5 over the years that it seems like some folks are just love that it’s out, and don’t love the actual music itself.   First, Wayne had to fight and makeup with Birdman over money discrepancies. He once tweeted about C5 being shelved indefinitely, writing, “I am a prisoner and so is my creativity.”   Then he had beef with Young Thug who went on to name his album Barter 6 –  a play on Wayne’s “Tha Carter” discography. And Weezy was battling health issues , regarding his seizures and multiple stints in the hospital. But fortunately for him — and us — that Wayne train hasn’t stopped and he’s getting some of his flowers while he’s still here. Fresh off the release of his special album, Weezy will also be honored at this year’s BET Hip Hop Awards. Hit us up and tell us where you rank “Tha Carter V” in your list of favorite “Carter” albums. via GIPHY

Hold It Fancy! Funniest Reactions To Garcelle Beauvais’ Steamy Will Smith Birthday Wish

Continued here:

Source: John Shearer / Getty Today is rapper, actor and IG extraordinaire Will Smith ‘s birthday. Initially, the day was all about him as fans and friends alike wished him a happy birthday on social media. Some people got nostalgic… It doesn’t matter where you’re going, no car ride is complete without at least one Will Smith song — Zach Robbins (@zrobbins4444) September 25, 2018 While others listed their favorite movies by the talented actor… My Top 5 Will Smith movies 1. Indepence Day 2. Men In Black 3. Hancock 4. I Am Legend 5. I, Robot Also, I know it's kind of indefensible but I ride for THE LEGEND OF BAGGER VANCE… DON'T @ ME — Matt Brickman (@Matt_Brickman) September 25, 2018 Even Will himself was hype for his birthday. On Instagram he pledged that he would bungee jump out of a helicopter on his birthday. The filmed stunt will be hosted by his Fresh Prince of Bel-Air co-star Alfonso Ribeiro , and the whole event will be streamed at 3 p.m. PST/ 6 p.m. EST  on YouTube.   Possibly one of the most special moments on Will’s birthday came when his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith , sent him love and support for his upcoming stunt on Instagram. “Here is what I love most about you turning 50  @willsmith, ” she wrote. “You are soaring high in your freedom and have more authentic happiness then I’ve ever seen you have before. You deserve every bit of it! Keep flying and keep doing you! Happy Birthday Willard!!! You make 50 look good!!!”   Now you’d think that would be the only lady showing such public affection to Big Willie. But it seems another woman of the 90s had other plans. The Jamie Foxx Show star Garcelle Beauvais  posted a tweet wishing Will a happy birthday, but instead of leaving it at that, she added a picture from the 1999 movie Wild Wild West where she’s kissing Will smack dab on the lips. She captioned the pic, “A birthday kiss for the birthday boy.”   The post has since been deleted, but you can check it out here . Despite Garcelle’s intentions, her post immediately went viral on Twitter. Some folks were scared for Garcelle’s life, considering Jada and her family of women basically look like action stars. Is this Garcelle woman on CRACK?!?? Sis, Jada does not play… — Qai Qai (@herroyalcourtt) September 25, 2018 Whew, chile. You do know Jada can bench press you, right? https://t.co/dqsTsm9KcO — G O L D I E. (@goldietaylor) September 25, 2018 Then, there were some that thought Garcelle’s post wasn’t a big deal. Why do people think that Jada is about to trip over a still shot of Will and Garcelle kissing from 'Wild Wild West'? She's known Will over 25 years and Jada has seen that movie. Also, I'm sure she knows both of their senses of humor. — Project Pat-agonia (@TheCourtJASter) September 25, 2018 Jada Pickett Smith seems like she has no desire to be controlling or even a bit of territorial folks have a different kind of understanding and connection in that marriage — yungsquat (@Nissafitt) September 25, 2018 Finally, there were those who brought up Will and Jada’s “unconventional”  marriage and they took their minds to the steamiest places. Will and Jada have an unconventional (read: open) marriage. I know they y’all goals but pls relax. I doubt Jada was losing sleep over that. — Lil Conch Snack (@abbracadabra_) September 25, 2018 Jada prolly fucked Garcelle with William. it’s no beef I’m sure. — DJ Vote Democrat in Houston ‘18 (@DJAudiTory) September 25, 2018 Eventually, Garcelle took her original post down and tweeted a response to all the hoopla…. Ok guys it was supposed to be a funny post My bad if I offended anyone ! If you are my followers you know I’m all about lifting up people and being positive being human I made a mistake … Have beautiful blessed day — Garcelle Beauvais (@GarcelleB) September 25, 2018 But of course, this still didn’t stop the commentary. Hit the next pages to peep the most hilarious reactions to Garcelle’s “mistake.”

Two Georgia Women Arrested After Selling Weed Edibles At Church

View original post here:

Source: Juan Carlos Quesada Bermudez / EyeEm / Getty Taking “getting to know the Most High” to a whole different level. Two Georgia women face felony drug charges after they were arrested by narcotics officers for selling marijuana edibles on the grounds of their church. Per WJLA , 28-year-old  Ebony Cooper and 26-year-old  Leah Pressley were booked after the two attended an event hosted by a church in Savannah, Georgia. Local entrepreneurs were on the grounds of the church selling items and a vendor outside the church hosted the event. According to a police report, the Chatham-Savannah Counter Narcotics Team began watching Cooper who had a booth on the premises selling cereal treats, brownies, pudding and other weed-infused items. Some of the officers even bought a few of the products. Once the event was over, the CNT followed the two women and finally apprehended them, seizing $1,000 in cash, a large amount of edibles and a loaded firearm. Cooper and Pressley were charged with felony drug possession and CNT also discovered that Cooper was advertising her “baked goods” on social media. See the official post on the CNT’s Facebook page just to see how ridiculous a bust this was.

LeBron James Partners With John Legend And Wendy Calhoun To Bring ‘Lean On Me’ To TV

Photo by Jason Miller/Getty Images Lean On Me Is Being Adapted For TV Thanks To LeBron James LeBron James is developing something new every single day, and it just keeps getting better and better. Over the past couple of months, the NBA star has opened a groundbreaking new public school in his hometown of Akron, Ohio, and on top of that, he’s also negotiated several deals with various networks including NBC, Netflix, and Showtime to bring a bunch of different projects to life. And now, James is adding yet another production to his already insane portfolio. LeBron’s latest venture is a partnership with  John Legend  and Wendy Calhoun to bring  Lean On Me  to the small screen. Inspired by the classic 1989 film–which starred Morgan Freeman–the series will center on Amarie Baldwin, a young Black teacher who gets hired to be the principal at a struggling Akron high school. Just like the original film, the television show will reportedly highlight how the system continues to fail kids of color, and Amarie must overcome certain obstacles to help her students succeed. Calhoun recently signed an overall deal with Warner Bros. TV and will serve as writer and executive producer on the project, along with with John Legend, LeBron James and his Springhill Entertainment business partner, Maverick Carter.

DJ Quik Talks About Being Robbed Of The Chance To Open For Michael Jackson On His O2 Tour

John Stillwell – PA Images/PA Images via Getty Images DJ Quik Reflects On Michael Jackson’s Influence At His Diamond Celebration In Las Vegas It’s hard to believe it’s been nearly a decade since Michael Jackson passed away, but his influence continues to reach far and wide. Bossip’s Senior Director of Content Janeé Bolden attended Michael Jackson’s Diamond Celebration in honor of what would have been Jackson’s 60th birthday a few weeks ago, where guests enjoyed a live performance of Michael Jackson’s “ONES” show at Mandalay Bay and an afterparty deejayed by Mark Ronson, where Usher performed. Besides taking in the performance, we also had a chance to chat with Michael’s brothers Tito and Jackie Jackson about Jackson’s legacy and hear DJ Quik reveal he nearly had the chance to open for Michael. Judy Eddy/WENN.com “He would be smiling down at this event,” Tito told BOSSIP. “We’re very excited to celebrate his birthday and his legacy with all the celebrities who’ve come out tonight.” Jackie modeled a pair of new Giuseppe Zanotti x Michael Jackson sneakers as the designer himself also walked the red carpet. “It’s a new shoe, it comes out in October,” Jackie told BOSSIP. “It’s just one style of it, but I dig it. I’m going to wear it onstage too.” When asked if the family had any plans for a private celebration of Michael’s 60th, Tito reminded us that much of his family doesn’t believe in such commemorations. “As you now, half of my family is Jehovah Witness,” Tito said. “And the ones that do celebrate, you’re looking at them right now.” Besides Tito and Jackie, Michael’s oldest children Prince and Paris were also in attendance. Other celebrity guests included Gabrielle Union, Vanessa Hudgens, Blake Griffin, Usher, Angela Bassett, Evan Ross and Ashlee Ross Simpson and rapper/producer DJ Quik. Quik told us he was especially happy to join MJ’s Diamond Celebration because he’d nearly been an opener for the pop superstar at one point in his career. “I never got a chance to see Michael live,” DJ Quik told BOSSIP. “My opportunity came when his promoter Terry Harvey called me to open some of his shows that he was going to do at the O2 Arena back in 2009. I was stoked. I had just put out a record with Kurupt and we were on a promo tour. Our promo tour started June 25, 2009 [the day Jackson died] so you know what day that was. While we were soundchecking, we get the news we’re not going to Europe and performing with him.” “I was out of it,” Quik added. “I don’t even know if I performed. I was hurt.” Quik took a moment to stroll down memory lane with us, remembering back to the first time he saw Jackson’s “Thriller” video: “We didn’t have cable at that point,” Quik told BOSSIP, “so I was across the street at my homeboy Billy Ray Smith’s house watching it on their cable TV — you know, back when the TV’s used to sit on the floor? One of them big RCA or Zenith TVs and being moved by it.” “We had seen all the rock’n’roll videos, Def Leppard and all that, but when his video came on it spoke right to us. It let us know that black people could do it.” Judy Eddy/WENN.com Asked to describe which Michael Jackson song best reflects his life, Quik, born David Blake, didn’t hesitate a beat. “‘Human Nature,’ because that record describes the whimsical part of life,” Quik said. “Michael Jackson was a dreamer and he was all about ooh’ing and aah’ing people. That record just has some kind of quality in it that lets you know you can be magic too.” With Prince and Paris Jackson in attendance and accompanied by his own son David Jr. Quik also took a moment to reflect on the importance of legacy. “It’s important because nobody is going to represent you like the people that you raised,” Quik said. “You can hire people publicists all day long and tell them to run this or run that, but when my son speaks about me he is going to speak from the heart. He’s going to speak about the personal experiences and public.” Quik’s son is also a producer and the Compton native said he couldn’t be more proud of him. “This kid is awesome. He did it on his own,” Quik boasted. “I didn’t have to tell him hey son do this or do that. Now I ask him for beats. ‘Can I rap on it one time? I still got it son, I think I still got it.’Now he’s performing, he’s engineering. I’m really proud of the stuff he does behind the scenes, he’s in the studio teaching other people how to engineer, how to patch wires… He got it honest.” Check out more photos from MJ’s Diamond Celebration below:

Anfisa: Returning to Cam Girl Work While Jorge Is in Prison?

Now that Jorge Nava has been sentenced to prison following his marijuana arrest, what is Anfisa going to do for the next 2.5 years? Obviously, Anfisa can work — but she is a full time student right now. Is she going to have to quit school to support herself while Jorge is behind bars? Jorge was caught with a massive amount of marijuana in his car. He grows medical marijuana for a living in California but, unfortunately, he and his car and that marijuana were in Arizona , which has some of the most absurd drug laws in the nation. As we reported, he has been sentenced to two and a half years in prison. Anfisa says that Jorge may have a shot at getting out after 22 months, but she is clearly looking at two years without her husband. But she might not have to quit her role as a student — because Anfisa could really make it as a YouTuber. We know what you're thinking — Anfisa may be younger than Jorge, but she's a few years older than your average YouTuber. But, as Starcasm notes, Anfisa could make money via YouTube in a major way, she's already shown that she has the skills for it. Anfisa edits her own clips for YouTube, and it really shows. She is very particular about controlling what viewers see and do not see, and about making sure that there are only pauses at appropriate moments. The evidence in her videos, which have smooth transitions from moment to moment, shows that Anfisa can keep her YouTube channel crisp and clean. Then there's the fact that Anfisa has plenty of business savvy when it comes to marketing herself on social media. (No jokes about her alleged sex work, please … we'll get to that in a moment) The titles of her YouTube videos cover frequently searched items, which means that she's followed not only by fans of 90 Day Fiance , but by people who have randomly come across her page. This is part of how you diversify your audience. Some come to see how her life is going after the show, but others are there for makeup tips. She knows how to stay relevant, and it works — her YouTube videos average 1.37 million views each. One got up to 4 million. Back in July, and despite Anfisa's denials, it looks like Anfisa's alleged camgirl work was exposed . While there is of course nothing wrong with being a camgirl or with any other kind of sex work, fans took an interest in her backstory. Evidence was uncovered featuring a woman who looks conspicuously like Anfisa on furniture that looks like Anfisa's old furniture, in an apartment that looks like Anfisa's old Moscow apartment. Even the camera angle was the same as the one that Anfisa used to audition for 90 Day Fiance . Some have wondered if Anfisa might use sex work when those bills start piling up.  If she wants to do that, good for her! But Anfisa has denied that she appeared in the video. Jorge also claims that the camgirl is not his wife. Anfisa might not need that. According to our research, it looks like your average YouTuber is going to bring in about $2,000 for every 1 million views on any video of theirs with ads. Obviously, as with any advertising gambit, pay can vary according to factors such as audience demographics. If Anfisa turns out a few videos a month for the next couple of years, that might help her to stay afloat until Jorge gets out. Then again, some have speculated that she might run his — legal — medical marijuana business. Until Anfisa tells the world herself, we just won't know.
