Posted on June 27, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

WENN Dame spoke briefly to WRNB 100.3 and touched on his relationship with Jay-z and his ordeal with Lee Daniels. Dame’s name has been buzzing all over social media for outing Lee as an alleged thief. But, where does he stand wit his former Roc-a-fella partner? Dame Dash on the album Reasonable Doubt celebrating 22 years It’s important not to live in the past, but to enjoy the past but also know that you have to be doing something in the now. I hate to be that guy that is always talking about what I did 22 years ago. I didn’t do anything unless I knew it was going to live forever, so I expected it to do what it’s doing. Dame Dash on his “friendship” with Jay-Z  [Quincy asks Dame if he and Jay-Z are still friends]  you tell me? I don’t get no money from what we were doing back then and that was strategically done so friends don’t usually do that to friends. I understand the business but as a friend, that was f-d up. Here’s the clip about Lee Daniels.

Where’s Young M.A.??? Rich The Kid’s Estranged Wife Says He’s Been Smashing IG Model Tori Brixx On Her Old Furniture

Posted on May 24, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

(Photos by Lars Niki/Paul Archuleta/Getty Images) Rich The Kid Ditches Ex-Wife, Moves In Tori Brixx Who even knew that Young M.A. and Tori Brixx had even broken up??? Apparently the insta-model is now not only seeing rapper Rich The Kid, but she’s living with him according to divorce documents filed by his estranged wife. According to TMZ , who obtained their divorce docs, Antonette Willis claims that Rich the Kid is an abusing, dirty dog. Allegedly, he forced his wife to have 3 abortions during their relationship to avoid having “anymore kids”. Right now they have two kids, a 1-year-old and 2-year-old. She also says she repeatedly caught him cheating and he frequently hit her after she confronted him — including a time she followed him and caught him going to a hotel with another woman. Yikes! Why even walk down the aisle???? Antonette says Rich not only kicked her to the curb, but she has zero income, and has been forced to move in with family back in Georgia. She’s asking for spousal and child support. Here is his ex, Antonette aka Lady Lucious: And in the midst of all of this MESSY matrimony-dom, Rich The Kid has moved his sidepiece Tori Brixx in her spot. He and Tori were just posted up on his insta-story enjoying a ride in a convertible. What a mess! How long do YOU think these two will last?
