Featuring a half-playful, half-serious verse from fellow Chicagoan wunderkind Chance The Rapper, and bridge assistance from Pharrell Williams’ sleeper apprentice, Buddy, “Church” continues BJ’s humble stumble down the path of righteousness, a theme threaded throughout his music since he first came on the scene as a solo artist in 2012. With every possible temptation (“She say she wanna drink, do drugs and have sex tonight / But I got church in the morning”), he rights himself. We all meander, and slip and fall, and let certain morals fall by the wayside. “Church” is a reminder that while we’re only human, we can control our own destinies. Sounds like something we all go through. Are you feeling this one?? NPR
Derrick Rose Accused Of Gang Rape Bulls Baller Derrick Rose is in the hot seat today, as a new lawsuit filed by one of his former girlfriends alleges that at the end of their two-year relationship, the player lured her to his home, laced her drink with a drug , and eventually forced her to have sex with him and two of his friends. Via TMZ : Derrick Rose is being sued by a woman who claims the NBA superstar and two of his friends drugged and gang raped her. The woman, identified only as Jane Doe, says she and Rose dated from 2011 to 2013. During that time, Rose allegedly tried to pressure her to masturbate in front of him, allow him to have sex with her friends and engage in group sex with strangers, all of which she says she refused. Rose’s accuser says the two continued to date until August 2013, when Rose and two friends, Ryan Allen and Randall Hampton (who is also Rose’s personal manager), invited her to Rose’s Beverly Hills house. She says there, they slipped a drug into her drink with the aim of raping her. The plaintiff says she escaped the house with a friend, but later that night, Rose and his friends broke into her apartment and gang raped her while she was incapacitated. She says she remembers only “flashes” of the incident, but can remember the defendants forcibly raping her. She claims she waited for two years to file the suit because she was “ashamed and embarrassed” of what happened and concerned her “conservative family” would find out. She wants unspecified damages. We’ve reached out to an attorney for Rose, but so far … no word back. YIKES. These are some TERRIBLE charges! Wow…it will be really interesting to see how this all shakes out.
