Kanye West Reportedly Has THESE Special Guests Up His Sleeve For Tonight’s ‘Saturday Night Live’ Performances

 Dana Edelson/NBC/NBCU Photo Bank via Getty Images Kanye Might Be Joined By Some Big Artists For His SNL Performances S aturday Night Live ’s upcoming season premiere airs tonight, and according to reports from all around the internet, everything about the episode is going to be absolutely one of a kind. This weekend,  Kanye West  will return to the  SNL  stage, which will mark the rapper’s 7th time as the musical guest. When the Chicago native performed on the program in 2016 in accordance with the drop of his then-new album The Life Of Pablo , he brought along a huge cast of characters including Chance the Rapper to perform with him. Now, according to reports from  TMZ , he’s bringing along a handful of other artists for some extra special performances. Sources say that Yeezy will be joined onstage by Lil Pump, Kid Cudi, Teyana Taylor, and 070 Shake, all of whom have collaborated with the rapper in the past. It isn’t yet clear whether or not Kanye is going to perform a medley of his past hits or if he’ll share some new snippets from  Yandhi , which is set to drop Saturday night in accordance with the show. Though Lil Pump is on the list of performers reportedly on the bill, the rapper just cancelled his entire tour–presumably because he’s currently locked up–so it will be interested to see if Ye can work his magic and break him out somehow. Spike Jonze, who directed Kanye and Pump’s “I Love It” music video,  is also reportedly assisting with the creative direction of the upcoming performances. SNL ’s season 44 premiere goes down this Saturday, where Kanye will perform along with the host for the evening, Adam Driver. In other related news, series creator Lorne Michaels revealed a few days backs that Kanye performing for the season premiere wasn’t planned too far in advance, claiming that Ariana Grande was originally set to perform on the season premiere, but backed out earlier this month for emotional reasons.

Fair Or ALL THE WAY Foul? Take A Peek Inside The FBI’s Search For “Black Identity Extremists” [Video]

If you weren’t aware, the FBI has labeled certain Black activists as possible “domestic terrorists” seeking to incite and execute violent acts against police. Yes, you read that correct…that African Americans are supposedly posing a violent threat to police officers, and NOT the other way around . Organized actions such as self-defense training courses, safe weapons training, and open-carry neighborhood patrols in their own communities have “tipped off” the FBI for leaders of movements such as these to be seen as a threat. Vice follows the plight of Rakem Balogun, the Dallas man taken in by the FBI on weapons suspicions as a “Black Identity Extremist” and eventually freed without charges. SMH, what do you think of the FBI’s focus on groups like these as “potential terrorists?” Getty/YouTube

Shots Fired: Steve Harvey Drags Pusha T For Mentioning His Name In “The Story Of Adidon” [Video]

  “Who Is This Broke A$$ Boy?” It seems like right when Pusha T beefs seem to be settling down , Steve Harvey  has come out of nowhere to bring the smoke for the Virginia rapper. While on the set of Family Feud , Harvey finally addressed a line about himself that Pusha T said waaay back in May. On Push’s diss track “The Story of Adidon,” Push raps about Drake , saying “A Steve Harvey-suit ni**a made him,” referring to Drake’s father, Dennis Graham , who’s always rocking the flashy suits . Apparently, Steve Harvey took offense to this small line and on Family Feud , he said, “”Pusha T. Who the fu** is that?” He even went on to call Push a “broke a$$ boy” and made fun of his name saying, “Pusher T don’t help me with none of my bills, ain’t sending none of my kids through school. Pusher T don’t answer my prayers. Pusher T don’t give me health.” Steve finished his insults with a freestyle dedicated to the rapper. You can check out the smoke for yourself in the clip above.

#TheCoolKids David Alan Grier Talks Playing A ‘Rusty, Dusty’ Man On His New Fox Sitcom

Earl Gibson III/Getty Images David Alan Grier Talks Fox’s “The Cool Kids” David Alan Grier  is making everyone laugh, per the usual, this time on Fox. The comedian/”In Living Color” legend recently chatted with Bossip at Roxbury Park after some Beverly Hills lawn club bowling, dinner and bingo for his new show “The Cool Kids.” David plays a “rusty, dusty” man named Hank who leads a crew of rambunctious retirement community living geezers who can’t help but get into wild adventures. Hank is joined by his buddies Sid, Charlie, and the very sassy Margaret, who bullies herself into the group and shows the boys she’s a boss. According to David, Hank is “very petty, very petty” and super hilarious. Not only that, “The Cool Kids”  differs greatly from his previous role on “The Carmichael Show” because of the humor, and because this time around he’s the only black person on the cast. The Carmichaels was so political and so cultural and that was really fun to do. This is not that, I’m the only black cool kid up in there, I’m an island, I’m holding down the whole race!” said Grier. The Cool Kids premieres tomorrow, Friday, Sept, 28 at 8:30 p.m. Will YOU be watching??? See more of the “Cool Kids” on the flip. Earl Gibson III/Getty Images

Family Of Botham Jean To Sue Officer Amber Guyger, City Of Dallas

Image via Splash/Kaufman County Sheriff’s Office Botham Jean’s Family Suing Amber Guyger The family of Botham Jean is preparing to file a lawsuit against the officer who killed him and the city of Dallas, Texas. NBC News reports that Jean family Attorney Lee Merritt announced that there will be a lawsuit against now-fired Dallas police officer Amber Guyge r and the city of Dallas. Guyger is facing a manslaughter charge for fatally shooting Jean September 6 after she “mistook his apartment for her own.” No word yet on when the suit will be filed. This is pretty common practice with police brutality cases. Remember when the city of Baltimore paid Freddie Gray’s family $6.5 million???  It’s not a conviction or an admission of guilt, but we’re sure it helps with the unjust pain and suffering. WE HOPE BOTHAM JEAN’S FAMILY GETS ALLLL THE MONEY THEY DESERVE.

Breaking: Nelly & Rape Accuser Agree To Dismiss Assault Case Against Rapper

PARIS, FRANCE – JANUARY 23: Nelly poses with Shantel Jackson at the Ralph&Russo Haute Couture After Party Spring Summer 2017 show as part of Paris Fashion Week on January 23, 2017 in Paris, France. (Photo by Samir Hussein/Samir Hussein/WireImage) Monique Greene Accused Rapper Of Raping Her In 2017 The woman who accused Nelly of raping her after a nightclub appearance last year has dramatically dropped the case against the rapper, BOSSIP has learned. Monique Greene and Nelly filed paperwork earlier this week agreeing to toss the civil rape case, which accused Nelly of luring her to his tour bus and attacking her following a concert at a Seattle nightclub in late 2017. Each side will pay their own legal fees, but it was unclear Thursday whether a financial settlement was in play. The case was acrimonious from the get-go, with Greene, 21, accusing Nelly, 43, of smearing her reputation before she even filed the suit with lies about her character. Nelly meanwhile insisted that their encounter was consensual and accused Greene of trying to inflame public opinion against him with her claims in court documents. We’ve reached out to lawyers for both Nelly and Greene for comment.
