Juice WRLD passed away at the young age of 21 due to a drug overdose. The recording artist was one of the most popular musicians in the world at the time, breaking the hearts of so many of his fans. His mother has taken control of his estate, establishing the Live Free 999 fund and sharing plenty of memories to social media.

This week, she went back to when Juice WRLD earned his first few dollars from performing, posing with a $100 bill and looking toward the future.

“This was the first money Jarad made for performing,” wrote Carmella Wallace, the rapper’s mother, on Instagram. “I told him we needed to capture the moment. The pic was taken March 2017 and the rest is history!”

At the end of his career, Juice WRLD was likely earning thousands upon thousands of dollars for his performances. He started at the bottom though, clawing away until he reached rap’s pinnacle. Unfortunately, his success didn’t last as long as he had hoped as his issues with substance abuse signaled the end of his journey.

Juice WRLD’s first posthumous album, The Outsiders, has been detailed by his girlfriend Ally Lotti. Look out for further announcements about the new album soon.

Long Live Juice WRLD.

It’s been a messy few months for Yaya Mayweather, who was accused of stabbing one of Youngboy Never Broke Again‘s baby mamas, leaving her hospitalized with non-critical injuries. The woman she allegedly attacked, Lapattra Jacobs, has apparently suffered life-changing injuries in her arm, noting that her hand is paralyzed. 

Mayweather is facing a maximum of ninety-nine years in prison. There have been no recent updates about the case but, today, Yaya Mayweather looks to put everything behind her as she celebrates her twentieth birthday.

Likely spending the day with her boyfriend NBA Youngboy, Yaya Mayweather is ringing in a new year of life as she officially turns 20. Her mother, Melissia Rene, sent out a touching message for her special day.

“Screaming Happy 20th Birthday to my baby, my beautiful boo @moneyyaya, I can’t believe you’re 20 already,” wrote Rene. “You’ve always have been & always will be my sweet baby YaYa. Loving, smart & sooo funny! I’m the mom & I’ve learned a lot from you. In so many ways you’ve made me better. Keep pushing forward & working on all the brilliant projects we’ve talked about. I’ll will forever have your back.”

Yaya shared a number of videos and photos to her Instagram Stories as she counted down the hours to her birthday. 

Happy birthday, Yaya!

Considering Beyoncé “got this shit from Tina” in the first place, it was only right that the “Savage (Remix)” matriarch gave the viral TikTok dance challenge a shot—in her own way. Following the massive success of Beyoncé and Megan Thee Stallion‘s remix of the latter’s “Savage,” it didn’t take long for those dancing youths on TikTok to come up with a corresponding routine with choreography ten timers harder than that of the original. The remix challenge is just that—challenging—which is why the 66-year-old decided to come up with her own moves to her eldest daughter’s track.

“Haaaa!!!” Tina wrote on the video. “Yeah i know they didn’t get their dance moves from me !! They got em from their daddy! Its okay i still like to dance!!!!! And i got two new knees.” Tina’s choreo proves to be much simpler and easier to follow than that of the #SavageRemixChallenge, consisting mostly of just swaying back and forth with some hand motions. However, when Bey’s line “If you don’t jump to put jeans on/Baby you don’t feel my pain” plays, Tina decides to demonstrate this action with a tight grip and a hop.

Although she’s appreciative of her shoutout on the wildly popular remix, Tina has confessed that she doesn’t quite understand what “savage” actually means.

Blue Ivy Carter showed her mama some love in an old clip from the Making The Gift documentary, which the 8-year-old’s personal stylist, Manuel Mendez, recently shared on Instagram. In the brief snippet from the 2019 film, which chronicled the process behind creating Beyoncé’s The Lion King: The Gift, Blue emulates her famous mom by dancing to the song, “Mood 4 Eva” off the soundtrack. Blue’s dad, Jay-Z, is also featured on the song, along with Childish Gambino and Oumou Sangaré.

Manuel shared the clip on Tuesday (May 12th) with the caption, “Mood 4 Eva. #love.” Manuel previously served as Beyoncé’s own wardrobe assistant before taking on the position of Blue’s own personal stylist.

Earlier this week, Blue had everybody laughing when she made an off-camera appearance in her grandma Tina Knowles-Lawson’s video with Kelly Rowland. On Sunday (May 10th), Tina shared the clip on Instagram, in which she and Kelly can be heard wishing a Happy Mother’s Day “to all the beautiful mothers out there.” All of a sudden, an adorable an out-of-frame voice chimes in, “And don’t forget all the beautiful daughters out there…which I am one of!” Let ’em know, Blue!

Although it’s a pretty common practice for kids to dig through their parents old photos to find some vintage gems for social media, not everybody’s mom and dad were kicking it with Eminem back in the day. Then again, not everybody’s dad is Dr. Dre, so there’s that. The legendary producer’s daughter, Truly Young, engaged in the age old art of the Throwback Thursday last week, which involved sharing a shot of her famous dad and her mom, Nicole Young, from their younger days. In the same photo, a blonde Em can be seen with a scowl on his face, as a mystery woman plants a big smooch on his cheek.

“How cute is my mom,” Truly captioned the photo. Although it would make sense that, seeing as she is Dre’s daughter, Truly would have found this old school shot on her own, it looks like she came across it while perusing a nostalgia pop culture account called @90smilk.

Sharing throwback photos of Dre seems to be a common occurrence these days. Earlier this week, Xzibit posted a myriad of photos from back in the early days of Aftermath, and of course, Dre is ever-present. The retro snaps also include the likes of 50 Cent, Battlecat, and DJ Pooh, making for one nostalgic trip down memory lane.

It's a debate as old as time (or at least 2016): Channel Orange or Blonde? As Frank Ocean's only two studio albums of his career, they are often pitted against one another as folks argue over which body of work ultimately reigns superior over the other. While Channel Orange served as his debut, fans had to wait four long years for Blonde, which made its final arrival much sweeter than it might have been otherwise. Although both are widely regarded as high quality bodies of work, most fans typically prefer one over the other, even if only by a little.

Among those fans are the woman who birthed the artist: Frank's mother, Katonya. On Wednesday, Katonya was asked by poet and writer, AJ Addae, during an interview over Instagram live which of her son's two albums she prefers more. Like so many of Frank's most diehard supporters, Katonya was able to finally settle on one, but it wasn't without some major hesitation and internal debate.

Lil Durk's OTF label is home to one of the most promising new rappers right now -- King Von. Though Von has been putting in work over the years, in recent times, it feels like he's beginning to get the recognition he deserves. It's been nearly two months since he released his last project, Levon James that included appearances from YNW Melly, Lil Durk, and G Herbo. 

The project has taken him to new heights professionally and it appears to have done the same in his personal life. King Von hit Twitter where he revealed a trio of pictures of a new Benz, a new house, and a screenshot of a text message exchange with his mom about paying off her old car.

"I Bought my Mama da new Benz. I Paid her old car off and now I’m waiting for the approval of dis new house for her.. The Best son in the world Prize goes to," Von wrote on Twitter with the pictures. "Nah fr doe this all a real street Nigga ever wanted to do. Was make they Og proud. I gave he 20 thous too."

You can't help but be happy for King Von for copping his mom a new crib and a new whip. Check the pictures out below. 

The Kush Up challenge began a few weeks ago but it seems like it’s still going strong to this day. Gillie Da King initially launched the challenge before calling out Wiz Khalifa, Snoop Dogg, Lil Durk, G Herbo, and many others. Wiz and Snoop Dogg handled the challenge with ease with the former using this time of quarantine to challenge other smokers from taking 10 hits off of a spliff without letting any smoke out.

The smoking gene clearly runs deep in Wiz Khalifa’s family. He hit Instagram Live with his mother as they did they 10-puff challenge together. With a grin that went ear-to-ear, Wiz Khalifa proudly boasted that his mother was able to handle the challenge. “N***a, my momma did that shit,” he said. 

“To all y’all punk ass rappers with your punk ass lungs — bring ’em! ‘Cause my momma did it,” he declared. 

There have been a few rappers that weren’t able to keep up with Wiz or Gillie, for that matter. G Herbo proved that his lungs weren’t able to handle the challenge. Russ, too, admitted that he nearly died trying to keep up.

In related news, Wiz Khalifa recently teamed up with Tyga for their new single, “Contact” which they recently released a music video for. Make sure you check that out. 

It’s been roughly a full week since Yaya Mayweather’s shocking arrest at NBA Youngboy’s home where she allegedly took a knife to the rapper’s baby mama. Though she’s remained relatively low key, with the exception of NBA Youngboy’s now-viral video, her mother recently chimed in on the entire situation. In a short clip shared with Melissia Rene’s Instagram, the mother and daughter are walking hand-in-hand walking through the mall. “Got your back FOREVER,” Rene captioned the video. It’s unclear if the video was from a recent appearance in the mall but it marks Rene’s first comments on the matter.

Yaya Mayweather was arrested for allegedly stabbing NBA Youngboy’s baby mama in both arms, resulting in emergency surgery. In the last few days, it was revealed that Mayweather had hired J Prince’s lawyer, Kurt Schaffer, for the case. Yaya was charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. She’s currently facing a sentence of 99 years in prison along with a $10K fine. Schaffer previously stated that she plans on pleading not guilty this August when she returns to court.

The alleged victim in the case reportedly recently broke her silence on the incident on ‘Gram. “No Im not ok Im really fucked up in the head & I hate to say it. Can y’all just leave me alone[?]” She added that she never wanted to have all this attention on her either. 

Youngboy Never Broke Again always has some dramatic stuff happening in his life. Whether he’s clashing with one of his many baby mamas or hurling threats at Kodak Black, the 20-year-old Baton Rouge native is pretty entertaining to keep track of. Without a filter, you can expect anything to come out of NBA Youngboy’s mouth next. Nothing is off-limits. During his rant directly following his girlfriend Yaya Mayweather’s arrest this weekend, the rapper called her dad, championship boxer Floyd Mayweather, a “bitch ass n***a.”

It turns out that he’s not the only person in his family that has a temper. During a live-stream on Instagram, the star’s mother chimed in about all the hate her son has been getting.

“Don’t talk about my child because, guess what, that’s a grown-ass man over there,” said Youngboy’s mother on video. “And I promise you I don’t want my child running behind nobody, going to look for nobody, or none of that. I don’t want my child doing none of that. But I’m telling this to any motherfucking body. If you go at him and if you go to him, he better let every motherfucking bullet out.”

If you ever wondered where Youngboy Never Broke Again got his aggression from, this might be it. Like mother, like son.
