Source: Splash / Splash News DaBaby Releases Music Video For “Off Da Rip” DaBaby is nothing if not highly entertaining. The Charlotte rapper seems to have an endless supply of energy and he uses it to push his bigger-than-life personality to the forefront of every music video he shoots. Today we get a visual for “Off Da Rip” which features some very rich hi-jinks in the streets of what appears to be Miami. Press play down below to have a look at Kirk’s latest. This guy is good.
Rapper Megan Thee Stallion gifted Black girls and minimally problematic Whites a way of life this past season: “Hot Girl Summer.” Women were living their best wild, free and mostly single lives, doing what they wanted to do, not prioritizing the feelings of men over their own. Aside from the corporation co-opts and the disagreements it caused between married and single women, it was beautiful. Still, when Megan got into—what we thought was a bona fide relationship with fellow rapper MoneyBagg Yo , people wondered if she was something like a hypocrite, encouraging women to flip the bird to men while simultaneously having a boyfriend. That’s a discussion for another day, but it did happen. Text “RICKEY” to 71007 to join the Rickey Smiley Morning Show mobile club for exclusive news. ( Terms and conditions ). The two seemed to be happy with one another. Megan gifted him a $150k half heart pendant necklace for his 28th birthday just last month. The two co-starred in a video together. He nobly defended her against 50 Cent’s infamous trolling. And in mid-July there was the obligatory Instagram post announcing their relationship. But it’s since been deleted. Now that it’s the fall and cuffing season is upon us—the time when people want to be snuggled up, Megan and MoneyBagg Yo have seemingly called it quits. But the circumstances of their breakup and whether the relationship was real in the first place have been called into question. It began with this series of tweets from Megan. I don’t even chase liquor why would I chase a nigga — HOT GIRL MEG (@theestallion) October 25, 2019 Normally, we would have taken that as typical rap bravado. But in conjunction with the rumor mill, it started to seem like the messages were targeted. Later, reports claimed that MoneyBagg Yo had impregnated a stripper.

The G-Unit mogul sat with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other members of Congress to address the issue of diversity in the entertainment world. The Hill reports that the artist born Curtis Jackson was in Washington on Wednesday (October 30) to discuss representation and diversity issues. The outlet also adds that Fif was also there to lobby on behalf of the Starz network to remain on Comcast/Xfinity’s service, which airs his popular Power series. It appears that 50 Cent has some support from lawmakers as Rep. Bobby Rush tweeted out support for Power and Starz, while also saluting Fif and actress Naturi Naughton, who joined in the Washington visit. The results of the meeting aren’t readily available but in a photo alongside Speaker Pelosi, Fif promised, “Big Changes Coming.” View this post on Instagram My #1 Lady Nancy Pelosi – Big Changes Coming A post shared by 50 Cent (@50cent) on Oct 30, 2019 at 3:31pm PDT Hate it or love it, shows like #Power matter b/c #RepresentationMatters .

Source: LaylaBird / Getty We all know that saying, “Women like bad boys.” Well according to some Canadian researchers, this statement could actually be close to the the truth. These Canadian researchers have found that men who show psychopathic traits are found to be way more attractive to women, than those men who do not show psychopathic traits. In their study called Evolutionary Psychological Science , the scientists discovered that men with psychopathic behavior were well-liked, didn’t experience much remorse, and lied often. These traits create a personality style that is very attractive to women. In the study, researchers studied 46 men in controlled dating videos and found that women found men with certain psychopathic traits to be more desirable based on general attractiveness, sexual attractiveness, and confidence. The study also showed that these benefits were only short term. Are women chasing after crazies?! We’re not sure but the information is very interesting! CLICK HERE TO READ MORE

It seems the rapper had a bloody physical altercation behind bars. As per HipHopDX the Florida native got into something at Miami’s Federal Detention Center where he is being held. WPLG Local 10 News is reporting that he got into a brawl with another inmate. In an effort to diffuse the situation a guard intervened but ended up getting injured in the process. The station is claiming that the correctional facility employee was kicked in the groin. While the injury does not seem too gruesome on paper the person in question had to be rushed to hospital to undergo surgery. The “No Flockin” rapper was caught with weapons in March which he plead guilty to. He is waiting for sentencing which is scheduled for November 13. Kodak could face eight years if the judge hits him with the maximum. View this post on Instagram The Streets Thin Na Cuz Everybody Gettin Hung ..

Clearly, Jill Duggar Dillard has had better weeks. First, she shared a photo of a baby casket , totally out of the blue, and got some pretty intense backlash from some upset fans. Now, she was just trying to run some simple errands when she got injured. And yes, there's video. Take a look below: “So, this happened today,” Jill Duggar's video, shared to her Instagram Stories, begins. “Love Sam's food, but … ” she writes in the captions. “Ouch, ya'll,” Jill declares, explaining: “I rammed my shin into that bar on the cart.” If you're not familiar with what she means, don't worry, both a snap below and the video itself illustrate what she means. “WHY does it stick out so far?” she laments. The captions on screen continue along with the video. “Was so trying to act like I wasn't limping while I wanted to cry,” Jill confesses. “I think it hurts worse the older you get,” she assesses. Jill continues: “I think my mom used to say that, lol.” We trust that she'll understand if we're not amused by anything that Michelle Duggar might say about children experiencing pain. “And,” she adds in a fainter note. “I need to shave lol.” “This video doesn't do it justice,” Jill admits. “Hurts so bad,” she expresses. Jill describes her injury: “And has a raised bump and turned blue/green right away.” Just because it's not visible on camera doesn't mean that it doesn't hurt. Speaking to the camera during the video, Jill admits that she hasn't been to Sam's in a while. She finds the carts “super tall,” which is pretty standard for a short person to say. But the bar underneath is what hit her shins. Gotta be honest, I've had this happen to me before, if not recently, and it is every bit as agonizing as Jill suggests. When a metal bar strikes your shin, it is almost directly hitting your bone. So what is the solution to this? Most shoppers simply have to adapt and learn that it is there as a hazard. But it sounds like Jill is hoping that maybe Sam's will change their carts. One solution would be to raise the bar just a few inches, which would vastly lower the odds of shin-strikes like the one that she experienced. By raising that bar, the person's legs would have to be that much closer to the cart in order to hit it. Injuries would go way down. It would also decrease the potential volume of the cart in terms of carrying groceries. A few inches can go a long way. Jill may of course face criticism for shopping at a chain notorious for union-busting and for allegedly being anti-worker. (Confession: though I've never been in a Sam's Club, I do order their toilet paper in bulk because it's the best! I apologize for my own weakness) But hopefully critics will considering Jill's injury to be, like, karma or at least a mitigating factor. Remember that not all communities have shopping options, and some entire towns rely upon Wal-Mart and Sam's for most of their shopping.
