The Barbz know how to sleuth. The dedicated Nicki Minaj fan base keeps an eagle eye on the rapper's account, and any subtle change or move will be noticed. Case-in-point: today, Nicki unpinned her top tweet which was a promotion for her February record, "Yikes." This was the first hint.
Following this, Nicki has tweeted (!). The combination of the tweet - which appears to be the always-powerful sub-tweet disguised as lyrics - and the unpinning of "Yikes" has led the Barbz to believe that Nicki Minaj is poised for her musical return.

"Yikes" was Nicki's last proper release, save for her guest appearance on Doja Cat's now-number one single, "Say So." The Young Money rapper previously announced her retirement, but hasn't exactly followed through, teasing details of a new upcoming album in February. Thus, fans have been waiting anxiously for the new music to follow.
The Queen Barbz has been rather silent across the board though, although she did speak out in response to George Floyd, she has not been very active on any of her social platforms. Her partner, Kenneth Petty, has been dealing with struggles of his own when it comes to his sex offender charges.
Now that Nicki has tweeted out something, something that could be deemed as lyrical matter (Showed you how to get a bag now u goin shopping), the fans are certain that her comeback is imminent.
What do you think? And who is at the receiving end of Nicki's tweet?

6ix9ine’s Baby Mama Calls Him An Attention-Seeker, Chooses To Ignore His Return
Tekashi 6ix9ine’s baby mama, Sara Molina, addressed her ex’s comeback, claiming he’s just “seeking attention” and deciding to ignore him.
Tekashi 6ix9ine‘s baby mama, Sara Molina, has given her two cents on her ex’s fateful return after his early prison release, following his record-breaking Instagram live session. 6ix9ine officially debuted his first post-prison single and music video, “GOOBA,” earlier today, and to accompany the release, he went live on IG to discuss his new era of freedom as well as his snitching ways. The live stream garnered a whopping 2 million viewers, reportedly breaking Tory Lanez previously set record from his series, Quarantine Radio. Already, 6ix9ine’s reintroduction has been plastered all over the Internet, as everyone reacts to the scorned snitch’s comeback. However, his ex, Sara, was less than impressed with his antics, so she took to her IG stories to address the situation, labelling 6ix9ine an attention seeker and revealing that she’s chosen to ignore his tomfoolery.
“Nothing bothers that person more than being ignored, they seek attention,” she wrote, almost certainly referring to the rainbow-haired rapper. “Good or bad attention it don’t matter, so guess what imma do.” She followed this with an eye-rolling emoji and a series of sleeping emojis, before concluding with, “God bless everyone.” Probably a wise choice on her part, all things considered.

Mike Tyson Tells T.I. He Wants To Make Boxing Comeback
Mike Tyson is looking to come out of retirement for a good cause.
When Mike Tyson was at the top of his game, he was absolutely unstoppable. Iron Mike Tyson was the undisputed Heavyweight champion of the world and his knockout power is unlike anything we have ever seen. He used to be a menace in the ring and opponents feared him every time he suited up for a bout. Now, Tyson is mostly seen as a pop culture staple who has his very own podcast and also grows his own strains of weed.
Recently, Tyson was on Instagram live with T.I. and during the session, the legendary fighter made an interesting admission. As it turns out, Tyson is interested in getting back into shape so that he can partake in some fights. Simply put, Tyson wants to make a comeback, albeit, for a good cause.
“I want to go to the gym and get in shape to be able to box three-or four-round exhibitions for some charities," he said. Of course, Tyson is 53 years old which isn't exactly conducive to being a high-level athlete. However, Tyson says these matches wouldn't be very long and that the stakes would be very low.
Fans seem to be excited by the notion of a Tyson comeback although it probably won't happen anytime soon. If anything, we will have to wait a while for this one to play out.
Rob Gronkowski Alludes To Possible NFL Comeback
Rob Gronkowski appears to be teasing fans with a possible return to the NFL.
Rob Gronkowski retired from the NFL in 2019 after he won his third Super Bowl with the New England Patriots. In the eyes of many, Gronkowski is the greatest tight end to ever play the game although unfortunately, injuries cut his career short. He only got to play ten years in the league before he had to shut it all down because of the toll the sport was taking on his body.
Over the past few months, there have been all sorts of rumors that Gronkowski might want to return to the NFL now that his body has healed. While Gronk is typically quick to shut down these rumors, it appears as though he is giving them some validity now. On a recent episode of "Watch What Happens Live," Gronk explained how he's feeling good and that anything is possible at this point.
"I'm feeling good right now, I'm happy where I'm at. You just never know, man," Gronkowski said. "You just never know. You never know. I'm not totally done."
There are certainly a plethora of teams out there who could benefit from Gronk's presence. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are a team that comes to mind especially now that they have Tom Brady.
If Gronk does come back, let us know who you would want him to play for.
Soulja Boy Shouts Out Tyga & Drake On "The Breakfast Club"
After experiencing the biggest comeback of 2019, Soulja Boy returns to The Breakfast Club and speaks on Drake, Tyga, and more.
Soulja Boy had the biggest comeback of 2018 (don’t tell Tyga) before dropping off the face of the planet again after a short stint in jail. His viral moments propelled him back to relevancy and many of those sound bites and videos came from his appearance on The Breakfast Club. In what has since become the most-watched Breakfast Club interview ever, Soulja Boy dissed everybody from Tyga to Drake, promising that he would have the most powerful musical return of that year. To his credit, he sort of did have one of the biggest comebacks of the year. Well, after getting out of jail and returning to real life, Soulja Boy Tell’em returned to the radio show this afternoon.
Sporting a new dread-locked look, Soulja Boy explained why he’s been so quiet as of late.
“I’m just staying out of the way. Working on the album, working on my business, keeping everything together, keeping everything on the up and up. It’s so much going on,” said Drako in the interview. He was then asked whether or not he’s heard from Drake or Tyga since he infamously trolled them in the last interview.
“I heard from everybody,” revealed the rapper. “We had a cool conversation and it was all love, man. Shout out to Drake.”
As far as Tyga goes, their conversation seems to have been a little more strained, which makes sense.
“Shout out to Tyga too, man. It ain’t no static with Tyga neither, man. I’m just focused on myself. 2020, I’m just focused on doing me,” said Soulja Boy before elaborating. “We went back and forth on wax but it ain’t nothing. Shout out to Tyga, man.”
Watch the full interview below.
Nelly Teases Relaunch Of Apple Bottoms Brand
Nelly dropped a pretty big hint that his iconic early 2000s denim brand, Apple Bottoms, will be seeing a relaunch this year.
Nelly appears to be bringing his iconic Apple Bottoms brand back for the modern times, after hinting at a comeback on his Instagram account. The Southern hip hop heavyweight posted an image of the brand’s signature logo on Saturday. “It’s bout that time…!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” he wrote in the caption. “Don’t call it a come back..!!!!!”
Nelly originally launched Apple Bottoms back in 2003 as a denim brand, but it went on to expand to clothing, accessories, and perfume. Nelly even conducted a search for a model to represent the label as part of the launch, in an episode of VH1’s Inside Out titled “Nelly: The Search for Miss Applebottom.”

Apple Bottoms has been famously referenced in countless songs, including Twista’s “Overnight Celebrity,” Flo Rida and T-Pain’s “Low,” Eminem’s “Shake That,” and, of course, T-Pain’s “Applebottom Jeans.” The brand’s last ad campaign was in 2010, so it will be interesting to see how Nelly plans ton revamp the Apple Bottoms look in order to fit into the style of the 2020s. While we wait for the return of Apple Bottoms, catch Nelly performing at the Lovers & Friends festival taking place on May 8th and 9th in Los Angeles.
Remy Ma New Album Title Changed
Remy Ma explains why she’s changing her album title from “Seven Winters, Six Summers” to “Reminisce” during a recent episode of “The Breakfast Club.”
On a recent episode of The Breakfast Club, Remy Ma joined her fellow State of the Culture hosts as interviewees on the tenured radio show. Remy Ma, Joe Budden, Ebony Williams, and Brandon “Jinx” Jenkins, all thrived in the environment, assuring viewers that the chemistry they share on Revolt TV is genuine. State of the Culture tends to be heavy in discussion about prevalent real-time news, yet they had no problems switching gears for a lighter, heartfelt, conversation with hosts DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha God, and Angela Yee.
Although the interview touched on many interesting topics, like the inception of SOTC, Puffy’s Revolt Cheques, and Love & Hip Hop, news of Remy Ma’s album is what had most listeners excited.
Remy shared that her album is no longer going to be titled Seven Winters, Six Summers like she previously announced. It will now be titled Reminisce.
Remy stated that she is now hoping to “move past” releasing music that focuses so heavily on the time she spent in prison. Her co-hosts and friends took time to congratulate her on recently getting off parole, but also understood her sentiment. Although we believe that she will reflect on her legal troubles in this new project, it is clear she has more she wants to share than just that.
2020 is shaping up to be a big year in music.
Dez Bryant Gives Some Insight On NFL Comeback Aspirtations
Dez Bryant is looking for a new home next season.
Dez Bryant’s NFL career has certainly been a rollercoaster of emotions. The former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver was released by the team back in 2018 and when he tried to play for the New Orleans Saints, he suffered an Achilles injury before his first game. Since then, Bryant has been working hard to get back in shape and find a new NFL home. Heading into this free-agent period, Bryant is more than ready to play and at 31 years old, he seems excited to get back into the swing of things.
Recently, Bryant was at a Dallas Mavericks game where he spoke about his desire to get back in the league. As he explains, his absence was mostly mental at first, but now he’s back in a space that is conducive to success.
“I miss the game,” Bryant said to Black Sports Online. “I did get injured but I’m not even worried about that. It was just more so up here [mentally] than anywhere and I got that in check and I’m just ready to put on a show.”
Heading into free agency, it remains to be seen where Bryant will end up. Regardless of where he goes, there is no denying he can help a team in need. Who would you like to see him play for?
