Girl On Fire: Alicia Keys Covers ESSENCE’s June ‘Travel And Escapes’ Issue

Source: JD Barnes / Essence Magazine Alicia Keys Covers ESSENCE Another day, another ESSENCE slay. Alicia Keys is covering the pages of ESSENCE for their June issue cover story titled Into The Light. In it, she speaks on her new music and book on the way, while chatting with ESSENCE’s “Yes, Girl” podcast hosts Cori Murray and Charli Penn. In the unfiltered conversation that took place 17 years after Alicia’s first ESSENCE cover, she discusses her journey, the way husband Swizz Beatz loves her and the joy she’s constantly discovering. Alicia told “Yes, Girl” the secret to her abundant joy and it’s simple; good vibes only. Keys tells ESSENCE:   “I think we have to come to an understanding that it’s okay to state what you need and state your piece and be clear, because if you don’t know what you need and you’re not able to say it, you’ll never get it. That’s been a deep, beautiful process for me…I just have always been able to be what I believe is just cool, man, because everything doesn’t have to be so damn dramatic all the time either. Things can just be cool. So I’m blessed for that…”   The cover was photographed by J.D. Barnes with styling from ESSENCE Fashion Director Marielle Bobo. Additionally, Keys is decked out in a photo spread featuring her in designers such as Lanvin, Roland Mouret, Rachel Comey, The Row and more. The full conversation between Keys and the podcast hosts will also be featured on ESSENCE’s Yes! Girl podcast, available for streaming and download on iTunes, Spotify, and Google. The June issue of ESSENCE hits newsstands on Friday. For more on this month’s cover story, visit ESSENCE.com Source: JD Barnes / Essence Magazine See more on the flip.

Single And Sauceless: Joe Budden Continues His Sartorial Losing Streak By Keeping His Super Villain Hats In Bulletproof Trapper Keepers

Source: Johnny Nunez / Getty Joe Budden has been going through it without his boo Cyn Santana by his side. He’s always struggled with his fits but this may be a new look even for him. As part of his promo for his podcast, Joe posed with his hat in some sort of case like Desperado or something. Not only that, he has the case leaning on his knee like the dopest accessory he owns. This was confusing as hell for most of the internet who responded by simply cracking jokes in his general direction. Joe Budden got a case for his hats LMFAOOOOOOOOO pic.twitter.com/cfz3yf7Cr9 — christian (@bhriselinni) May 22, 2019 Take a look and enjoy the tradition of Joe Budden getting clowned for his fits. It’s a tale as old as time. BONUS: hit the flip for pics of how Cyn has put the pressure on since she became single, too.

GA Man Accused Of Murdering Sutton Tennyson Wants Evidence Thrown Out In Case (Exclusive)

Source: Prince Williams / Getty Michael Shareef Williams Accused Of Shooting Angela Simmons’ Ex-Fiancee The Atlanta-area man charged with gunning down Angela Simmons’ former fiancee Sutton Tennyson has filed court papers to throw out evidence against him and seal the details of a violent arrest involving children, BOSSIP has learned. Michael Shareef Williams filed motions asking a judge to toss evidence of a cache of weapons cops found during a raid on his house. He also asked a judge suppress details about at least one previous arrest for battery and cruelty to children in the third degree, his court papers state. Williams said law enforcement violated his Constitutional rights when they detained him without linking him to a crime, “conducted a suggestively administered photo identification,” and searched his house with a warrant that lacked probable cause, according to documents obtained by BOSSIP. A judge will rule on Williams’ motion in a hearing next month. Prosecutors believe Williams shot Tennyson more than a dozen times in the driveway of his own home late last year after a dispute “escalated.” In February, a Grand Jury indicted Williams on eight felony charges, including murder, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Williams, who court papers state was unemployed, has been held without bail at the Fulton County Jail for the last six months while his case is pending. We reached out to the Fulton County DA as well as Williams’ lawyer for comment.

Ben Carson Reminded Us Why He’s The Most Pathetic Black Man In America And Got DESTROYED By Literally Everyone

Source: Mark Wilson / Getty Ben Carson was once someone we studied and talked about every February for his contributions to the medical profession and his genius. Boy, have the times changed. Now he’s the head of HUD, mostly because Cheeto Dusty heard the word “urban” and hired his only black friend for the job. During a hearing on Tuesday, Carson was asked what an REO was and this fool thought they were asking him about an Oreo. What an idiot. OH, REO! Thanks, @RepKatiePorter . Enjoying a few post-hearing snacks. Sending some your way! pic.twitter.com/q4MMTBWVUI — Ben Carson (@SecretaryCarson) May 21, 2019 He went so far as to pose with a box of Oreos like a clown with zero awareness of how stupid he looks. Also, he’s out here putting out policies that are damaging black folks and acting like it’s a joke. Watch Rep Katie Porter ask Ben Carson about REOs, a real estate term. Carson thought Porter asked about Oreos. The cookie. He had no idea what REOs are, a basic real estate term. Trump’s Housing Secretary. Ridiculous. pic.twitter.com/JT25Uz4dpx — Scott Dworkin (@funder) May 21, 2019 He’s an embarrassment. Look at the way he got dragged through the entire internet.

Yay Sports! Moderately Messy Magic Johnson Airs Out Loose-Lipped Lakers’ GM Rob Pelinka On ESPN ‘First Take’

Source: Gary Coronado / Getty Magic Johnson Exposes Betrayal That Made Him Quit Lakers Job If you’re reading this story on BOSSIP we’re going to assume you’ve seen New Jack City where Nino Brown takes the stand and lie-snitches on “the lightskinned brotha from Uptown” as the “real” head of his CMB criminal cabal. Magic Johnson called out Rob Pelinka the way Nino Brown called out Kareem Akar pic.twitter.com/C7crHiRuLW — Lemories_Coupe (@LemoriesI) May 20, 2019 Today, Magic Johnson performed his own version of that classic scene. As you know, the Lakers legend made an abrupt exit from his gig last month and this morning he sat down with Stephen A. Smith, Max Kellerman, and Molly Qerim on ESPN’s First Take to air out ALL the dirtiest laundry. Oh, but there was MUCH more. Magic also addressed LeBron James’ reaction to his sudden departure. Magic ultimately still loves the Lakers and wants to own the team one day. We never expected Magic to put people on blast like this, but we get it. Sounds like the Lakers have a LOT of cleaning up to do before they get back to their Championship legacy. The reactions to Magic’s explosive interview are hilarious. Flip the page for a great laugh.

View this post on Instagram “It was somethin bout that rollie when it first touched my wrist” -Meek A post shared by Future Hendrix (@future) on May 19, 2019 at 6:35am PDT This weekend was Baby Future’s fifth birthday. While most fifth birthday parties are pretty harmless, this one brought all sorts of Twitter drama. That’s because everyone loves arguing about Future and Russell Wilson. Baby Future’s two dads each posted some social media love to the little man. Each post had its fair share of controversy and pushback from the ash bubbles on Twitter. From the moment we came into each other’s worlds to 5 yrs later, you changed my life & my heart for the better. You are the greatest gift I couldve ever asked God for! I will always love you, guide you, teach you, & care for you. Happy 5th BDay Future!
