We're going through a lot of things right now, a lot of things in the media. I want to apologize to you Cardi. I embarrassed you. I made you go crazy . So says Offset in a revealing new Instagram video, which he shared late Friday night and which is intended to win over Cardi B, the woman he just recently so badly scorned and humiliated. The wildly popular artist announced in early December that her marriage to Offset was over . And while Cardi said mostly nice things about Offset in this announcement, stating that the two would remain “business partners and friends,” it became evident rather quckly that the Migos member had messed up quite badly. He had been caught cheating on the singer and even caught trying to set up a threesome without her . Cardi herself is yet to respond to these horrible actions by her husband, but the woman with whom Offset cheated has apologized… … and now Offset has done the same. “I was partaking in activity that I shouldn't have been partaking in, and I apologize,” he says in the footage featured here, adding: “You know what I'm saying? For breaking your heart, for breaking our promise, for breaking God's promise and being a selfish, messed up husband.” Offset does sound contrite in his confession. But he's been known for sleeping around in the past, so Cardi will need to decide if such a habit has truly been broken forever. The rapper hadn't exactly ruled out a reconciliation , even before Offset went ahead here and got all nice and candid. Will his words be enough to win her over? Or have his despicable actions spoken far louder than they ever will? I'm trying to be a better person. I want to get this off my shoulders. I want to get this off my back. I apologize to you Cardi. I love you,” Offset adds, prior to referencing their daughter and stating: Kulture, I want to spend Christmas with you. I want to be able to spend the rest of my life with you. I apologize. I am sorry for what I have done to you. I didn't f-ck that girl, but I was entertaining her, you know what I'm saying? I apologize, and I love you, and I hope you forgive me. My birthday wish is just to have you back. Watch the video now and decide: Should Cardi B give Offset another chance?
Kanye West has turned his attention from Drake to Ariana Grande. And now we have a feud on our hands between two of the biggest solo artists on the planet. It all started on Thursday night when Kanye went after Drake on Twitter , accusing his fellow artist of threatening members of his family. This renewed rivalry got off to a strange start, after West revealed that Drake had asked for clearance to sample one of his tracks. Kanye used this request as an opening to simply attack Drake close to 80 times on social media, writing at one point that Drake needs to stay away from Kris Jenner: “Been trying to meet with you for 6 months bro. You sneak dissing on trav records and texting Kris talking bout how’s the family.” It was an especially chaotic few hours on Twitter, even for Kanye West. Drake didn’t really response to any Kanye’s taunts of insults… … but Grande actually did. You see, Ariana and Miley Cyrus both released new tracks on Thursday and Grande joked that West and Drake’s beef was taking away attention from these single drops. In a practically perfect Tweet, the singer wrote: “Guys, i know there are grown men arguing online rn but miley and i dropping our beautiful, new songs tonight so if y’all could please jus behave for just like a few hours so the girls can shine that’d be so sick thank u.” Hilarious, right? Not exactly, Kanye now argues. The 41-year old rapper took exception to Grande butting into his business in this manner, accusing the superstar of exploiting both his fame and even his mental illness in order to promote her music. “I know Ariana said this to be cool and didn’t mean no harm but I don’t like even slightest level of slight commentary from someone I know loves and respects me,” he Tweeted, adding: “All of this foolishness weighed on my mental health so @ArianaGrande you know I got love for you but until you’re ready to really make sure everyone’s ok don’t use me or this moment to promote a song.” West has claimed in the past that he’s bipolar . In response to Kanye’s remarks, Ariana didn’t entirely back down. She stood up for herself and her career, but also issued a mea culpa. “with all due respect, i don’t need to use anyone to promote anything. period. i was making a comment ab what men were doing at the time vs. women,” she wrote, concluding: “it was a joke which i understand now was probably insensitive. i apologize if i was in any way triggering and hope u feel well today.” Again: Ariana handled this perfectly. It’s very clear at this point of her career that she doesn’t need to rely on anyone else to push her songs, yet she was a big enough person to recognize the sensitivity of mental illness and to acknowledge how perhaps she should have thought of that before Tweeting. Grande is very good at social media. Kanye is very bad. Perhaps he should take another break from the medium.

Source: Global Grind / Giphy Another episode of The Rewind is here and we are more than happy to give you your much-needed dose of recap reality. Every week we revisit some of the pop culture trends, movies, viral moments and music from the week before and give our hot takes. Our experts Landon Lavarius and DJ Franchise share their opinions, sprinkle in some facts and then when it’s all over and done with, provide a rating of 1 to 10. We listen to the songs, watch the movies, scour the internet, and do the hard work so you don’t have to. Without further adieu, let’s jump into this week’s episode. Today, we’re going to discuss Jada Pinkett-Smith’s web television talk show, Red Table Talk . The series, which broadcasts on Facebook Watch weekly, debuted on May 7, 2018. It stars Jada Pinkett-Smith, her mother Adrienne Banfield Norris, her daughter Willow Smith and often an additional special guest per episode. The show was created after a video of Jada Pinkett-Smith, her mother and Willow shared discussing issues each generation experienced regarding motherhood. The initial video went viral and since the inception of Red Table Talk , they’ve been nominated for a Streamy Award and a People’s Choice Award. The series has featured a number of special guests including Gabrielle Union, Toni Braxton, Tiffany Haddish, and Will Smith’s ex-wife Sheree Fletcher. On June 13, 2018, it was announced that Facebook Watch had ordered an additional 13 episodes of Red Table Talk. The show has managed to become a viral sensation. Landon Levarius and DJ Franchise also break down Trey Songz’s latest track, Jill (Sumn Real) on this week’s episode of The Rewind. Trey Songz dedicated the new song, which he released back in November, to Jill Scott’s now viral simulated microphone fellatio video. Despite the fact that the video is old and Jill Scott isn’t too thrilled about all of the new and unwanted attention it’s been getting it, she did compliment Trey on the song and said that she actually liked it. With everyone talking about who they think the king of R&B is and Trey Songz’s name definitely being in the running for some people, it’s nice to see the singer drop something brand new for the fans. Do you think DJ Franchise and Landon Levarius feel the same way? We find out on the latest episode of Global Grind’s The Rewind. Watch the full episode above and let us know your thoughts.

So you know how Kanye West enjoys expressing his thoughts and feelings on Twitter? It seems that yesterday, he had just a great big mess of them. Because, OK, Kanye hates Drake , right? And this is for a lot of reasons. Earlier this year, Kanye produced an album for Pusha-T, and on the album, Pusha said some not-so-nice things about Drake. Drake retaliated by saying some equally unkind things about both men in a song of his own. After that, Pusha released another song in which he let everyone knew that Drake had that kid that he’d been keeping secret . A few months later, Drake slammed Kanye in yet another song. And after all that, Kanye got a text yesterday from one of Drake’s producers asking for permission to sample one of his songs. That’s when things got really bad. Kanye tweeted a screenshot of the text and then went off … for a very, very long time. The gist of it all was that he’s been waiting on an apology from Drake for going after him when he wasn’t even the one who told Pusha about his secret son. After the first part of the rant, he said that Drake did call to apologize, but just a few hours later, he claimed that “Drake called trying to threaten me.” We can’t even begin to break down everything he said — he seriously tweeted for hours and hours — but he did seem to take the threat seriously. “Drake if anything happens to me or anyone from my family you are the first suspect,” he wrote. He said that he made it possible for Drake to be successful because “I’m the guy with the pink polo that made a way for him.” But now he’s “so street” that he picks on “people with mental health issues” — he did explain that since he’s bipolar, issues like these can make him “ramped.” Kanye begged Drake to “please take the devil up out you” and to stop playing games and just have a real conversation about everything with him. He really did go on for so long. So, so long. And Ariana Grande was not having it. See, last night Ariana was planning on dropping a new song, “Imagine,” and she did, but she was on Twitter for a few hours before to talk with her fans and promote the release. The problem was that so many people were talking about everything that Kanye was saying that it was kind of sucking up all the attention. So she tweeted this: “Guys, i know there are grown men arguing online rn but miley and i dropping our beautiful, new songs tonight so if y’all could please jus behave for just like a few hours so the girls can shine that’d be so sick thank u.” Honestly, a lot of people didn’t appreciate the comment — some thought it was a silly cry for attention, others thought Kanye’s claims about death threats were more interesting and important. But Miley was down for Ariana’s plea! She retweeted it and added “Didn’t they hear the news?! War IS over! Thank you, next!” Because the song she released last night is called “War is Over,” get it? Unfortunately, Kanye didn’t listen, and he went on for a while after that about how important he’s been for “sneakers fashion music everything” and about how positive vibes are desperately needed.

The “thank u, next” singer hit Twitter to remind her Arianators that she and Miley Cyrus were dropping two new songs on Thursday night, but the fact that she used Drake and Kanye West ‘s beef to promote herself has some people highly annoyed. “guys, i know there are grown men arguing online rn but miley and i dropping our beautiful, new songs tonight so if y’all could please jus behave for just like a few hours so the girls can shine that’d be so sick thank u,” she tweeted. And of course, Miley Cyrus joined in, retweeting Ariana and adding “Didn’t they hear the news ?! War IS over ! Thank you , next! .” At the time Miley was prepping to release her own version of “Happy Xmas (War Is Over)” while Ariana was all set to drop her song “Imagine,” which some speculate is about her late ex Mac Miller . guys, i know there are grown men arguing online rn but miley and i dropping our beautiful, new songs tonight so if y'all could please jus behave for just like a few hours so the girls can shine that'd be so sick thank u — Ariana Grande (@ArianaGrande) December 14, 2018 Didn’t they hear the news ?! War IS over ! Thank you , next! https://t.co/iQKLQ9dP4Q — Miley Ray Cyrus (@MileyCyrus) December 14, 2018 What most had to say to the petty pop princesses was hilarious. “Everyone stop what you been doing the world revolves around her,” @JacobMKrebs wrote. “Can’t wait to listen to your song where the chorus will be the same length as your verses!,” @jamesnz27 commented and it took us out. Not everyone’s a hater, as this @04jake04 pointed out: “There’s people that like her and think it was unnecessary.” Hit the flip to see more of the funniest comments and let us know if you think Ariana’s tweet was on point or “unnecessary?” In case you missed it, Kanye West hit Twitter with what might’ve been his longest rant yet , claiming that Drake threatened his family.
