New Video: Ebenezar Releases Visual For ‘Stats’ Featuring Col3trane

Ebenezer releases visual for “Stats” featuring Col3trane, lifted from debut EP  Bad Romantic . The video premiered earlier today via Complex UK, the video sees Ebenezer and Col3trane drenched in moody lighting weaving through secret corridors and London backdrops as the song unfolds. Watch  HERE . “My good friend Dir.Lx and I had so much fun making this. Can’t wait for you to hear more of what’s to come,” speaks Ebenezer. Bad Romantic  grips you from first listen and truly showcases his own signature UK rap aesthetic. An ode to real romance, the EP jumps from energetic deeper trap sounds on tracks like “Till I Die” and “Catch Feelings” and transitions to slower vibes with more emotive tracks like “South of France” and “Nostalgia,” overall rounding this project off as a stunning first EP from Ebenezer. In a few short years Ebenezer has worked with the likes of  Rejjie Snow ,  Jeremih ,  Ty Dolla $ign and Craig David. With a string of successful tracks released last year such as “F**K IT,” “Survival” and “Cliché,” Ebenezer is carving his own unique path – one of emotionally tinged R&B with hints of trap, completely void of the usual pretence that’s flooded the genre. In a way, it could be described as conscious turn-up music, but without a holier than thou message. The project sets Ebenezer apart from everyone else, as someone from London with a story to tell.  Born in Homerton, Ebenezer spent most of his childhood at a cousin’s house in Hackney along with his brother and sister. While his mother was busy holding down three jobs, Ebenezer and his brother spent most of their free time listening to music, watching MTV Base and learning to produce.

Swirl Gone Sour: Kendra Wilkinson Rumored To Be Pulling The Plug On Mixed Race Matrimony-dom

DIGIPHOTO/SPLASH NEWS Kendra Wilkinson Rumored To Be Planning Divorce This is pretty sad. One of our favorite swirl couples marriage may be going kaput very soon. Kendra Wilkinson and Hank Baskett have been facing issues for years now, but she is now rumored to be filing for divorce after 9 years of matrimony-dom. According to US Weekly reports : “She’s been really unhappy and felt uncomfortable in the marriage and they have been fighting a lot,” the source says of the former Playboy model. Just last month Wilkinson publicly admitted to the couple’s difficulties in a now-deleted post on Instagram dated February 21, which addressed rumors that she and Hank were faking their problems for TV: “1. how do u fake marital problems? makes absolutely no sense,” Wilkinson wrote on February 21 in a post that has since been deleted. “2. Yes we are having issues 3. My job has been reality tv for 13 years 4. My show was a comedy and light hearted til sad times happened then we had to change my show from comedy to drama. Not what i wanted but was a part of my journey and story.” Multiple outlets have reported about the impending divorce, and some sources are saying Wilkinson was simply overwhelmed: “Everything came really quickly for Kendra in the beginning, the show, marrying Hank, the kids,” an insider tells E! News “It all happened really fast for her. Through the years she really tried to make it work with Hank but at this point there’s really no coming back from this latest divide.” Our source denies Hank’s 2014 cheating scandal is to blame, saying, “He’s actually a great dad and has been getting a bad rap lately. He always let Kendra do whatever she wanted and was always supportive of her career choices.” “Meanwhile,” the source adds, “Kendra worked and he was at home taking care of the kids. He’s a really good dad. He thought letting Kendra do the Las Vegas gig would make her happy, but ultimately it’s drawn them farther apart. They’ve had massive issues for years and everything is just coming to a head now.” It’s no secret that marriage is hard work. We’re sad to hear this one may be over, but sources say it’s highly unlikely the couple will work out their differences: “Kendra has met with lawyers and is proceeding with the divorce. It is happening very soon.” “Things have gotten very bad between her and Hank and she has lost all trust,” the second insider shares. “She wants things to be very amicable and graceful for the sake of their kids, but also wants things to happen very fast.” Prayers up for the Wilkinson-Baskett’s! We hope Kendra and Hank continue to co-parent peacefully for little Hank and Alijah. Continue reading →

Anti: Howard Students Protest Financial Aid Scam Singing Rihanna’s “B!t¢h Better Have My Money” [Video]

Image via Getty/Christopher Polk/Getty Images for NARAS Howard Students Sing Rihanna’s Hit Song In Protest Of Scandal Yesterday the news of financial aid scandal at Howard University took over every corner of the internet from Twitter to chat rooms to comment sections.

Christina El Moussa: My Boyfriend is Hot AF, Yo!

Christina El Moussa may have become famous for co-hosting a show titled Flip or Flop. But it’s very clear where she stands on new boyfriend Ant Anstead: She can’t but flip out over him at every opportunity! We learned in early January that this HGTV personality was dating  British television host named Ant Anstead , the third or fourth guy to whom she’s been linked since her split from husband Tarek. Will this romance stick? Will Christina even walk down the aisle some day with Anstead? It’s far too early for us to have an answer, but it’s apparently not too early for El Moussa to write some VERY nice things about her latest lover. Back on March 17, El Moussa tagged Ant in an Instagram caption and said he was “magical.” She added the hashtag “#hmf” at the time, which we’re guessing stands for “hot motherf-cker.” Now, however, El Moussa has really gone to a praiseworthy extreme. “At the end of 2017 I was lucky enough to be introduced to this guy through a mutual friend. #Fate,” she wrote as a caption to the picture above. On the occasion of Ant’s 39th birthday, she continued: He has already grounded me in so many ways and I’m so grateful for him.  @ant_anstead is an amazing dad to his children and also great with mine, driven and talented, humble and kind, patient and a great listener, fun and hilarious, spiritual. Oh, she concluded, “to top it all off he’s hot AF.” We definitely know that means “as f-ck.” El Moussa and Anstead have been sharing photos with one another nonstop during their visit to Anstead’s hometown in England and their subsequent safari vacation in South Africa. Things are clearly pretty darn serious between the couple. The 34-year-old mom of two filed for divorce from her ex-husband, Tarek El Moussa, in late 2016. The paperwork was filed just weeks later, with the reality stars saying all the right things about each other in public. They really do seem committed to co-parenting their kids in a healthy, responsible and peaceful manner.  Tarek, meanwhile, has not yet found a lucky lady to truly replace Christina. He hasn’t really settled in with any girlfriend; not one he feels comfortable telling the world about at least. However, while Tarek has not yet confirmed the rumor, at least one report recently linked him with a lingerie model named Patience Silva. Yes,  Patience Silva . We cannot confirm or deny this story, but we can say that it would be very difficult to go from Christina El Moussa to nearly anyone, even a lingerie model.
