With the backing of the federal government, it appears that Tekashi 6ix9ine's willing to take on just about any machine at this point, including the Billboard charts. Last week, he went on a tirade against Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande's new collab over merch bundles that would help them claim the number one spot on the Billboard Hot 100. That being said, the success of "GOOBA," in his opinion, should warrant the top spot on the Hot 100 this week.

Earlier today, Tekashi 6ix9ine revealed his findings in a recent investigation into the Billboard charts. The rapper and his team pressed Billboard about Ariana Grande's and Justin Bieber's new collaboration to find out that there were allegedly six credit cards used to purchase half of 60K units moved at the last minute, though Billboard didn't disclose who those credit cards belonged to. The funny thing about the rant is 6ix9ine's attempt to disguise it from looking as if it wasn't self-serving was a fail. He pointed to the number of streams that amounted to more than 50M and said that 20M got disqualified.

In the days since 6ix9ine's taken aim at Billboard, it appears that they may have removed his chart history completely. It's currently listed as unavailable but perhaps, it's just a glitch in the backend. 

Legal trouble has riddled Young Buck‘s career over the years. Most recently, the rapper was arrested ahead of Christmas and was held without bond up until very recently. The former G-Unit rapper was released from prison last week and chopped it up with DJ Paul on Instagram Live. He addressed 50 Cent after filing for bankruptcy but another thing he mentioned that went under the radar was who he was locked up with.

Apparently, Young Buck shared a cell with Future‘s son who is currently behind bars on charges of criminal gang activity, criminal trespass, and altered ID of a firearm. Buck was being held in a Georgia prison where Future’s son is apparently also locked up. “Yeah, lil n***a name was Kobi, I think,” Buck told DJ Paul during the live stream. “I tell the guard, ‘put that n***a in a cell with me.’ You feel me?”

He added, “And the little time I was locked up. A little bit of it, I done most of it with his son. His lil’ one. I think I talked to Casino, his uncle’s and shit… but it fucked me up, man.”

Future’s son is 17 which means in the state of Georgia, he’ll be tried as an adult. Buck said he didn’t know the charges but he made sure to tell Casino that he’s holding him down.

“I don’t really know what his charges was and shit but we was back there, you know?… I just told Casino, ‘I got him while he back here. I know y’all finna get this n***a all this money you n***as got but I got ’em while he back here.'”

Even if summer 2020 is canceled, it looks like DJ Khaled is preparing to take over in the months ahead. Over the weekend, he hit Instagram where he flexed a few new plaques on the ‘Gram. The RIAA has officially certified Father Of Asahd platinum but not only that, but Khaled also claimed that the RIAA told him he’s the “Only Hip-Hop Artist to have 3 back to back Platinum Albums in the last 4 years.”

Over the past few years, specifically, Khaled has dominated the summer with major anthems featuring some of the biggest artists in the game. It’s typically some sort of combination of Justin Bieber, Quavo, and Chance The Rapper but in that same IG post, he hinted that a new collaboration with Drake is officially on the way. “Up next: New Album in the works ? First single BEEN done! ? x ? MORE CHUNE PON THEY HEAD TOP,” he added on the IG Post.

Though no word on when the single will drop, he recently announced that it would certainly arrive in the months to come, because, well, “there’s no SUMMER WIT OUT DJ KHALED ANTHEM,” per Khaled’s Instagram. We’ll keep you updated on any more news regarding Khaled and Drake’s upcoming single.

Michael Jordan‘s infamous “Flu Game” was on full display during “The Last Dance” last night and fans were surprised to hear that it was actually a really bad case of food poisoning. Many already knew this but very few had heard about the circumstances surrounding the ordering of said pizza. In the documentary, it notes that Jordan was the only person to have eaten the pizza while everyone else in the room watched. It was also said that numerous delivery men showed up at the door which led his trainer to believe that it had been spiked.

During an appearance on ESPN’s Jalen & Jacoby, “The Last Dance” director Jason Hehir admitted that the Jordan story went a tad deeper. When pressed about Jordan eating the whole pizza, Hehir said that MJ had actually spat on the pizza to make sure no one else ate it.

Jordan did this because his teammates had eaten a few hours earlier and he wanted to order something for himself. He was fearful that some of the other guys would touch the pizza, so he spat on it as a preventative measure. Later that night, Jordan got extremely sick and he eventually went on to score 38 points in a huge NBA Finals win.

The “Flu Game” is already an incredible story but this anecdote adds another layer of insanity to it all.

Mimi Faust from Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta has been in a thriving, nontoxic relationship. Unfortunately a lack of drama on Love and Hip Hop is never good. Faust’s new well-adjusted lifestyle has led to a major pay cut.

Due to the coronavirus, Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta is currently on production hiatus, but veteran reality star Mimi Faust brought something to the viewers’ attention. Faust revealed on the Love Rants Youtube series that she had to take a pay cut because her storyline lacked “drama”.

It is no secret  that there was a point when Mimi’s life had enough drama to essentially carry the show. To give some background, Mimi was introduced to Love and Hip Hop as the girlfriend of producer Stevie J. The two also share a child together. The love triangle started with Joseline Hernandez, who was quickly identified as Stevie J’s side chick. The drama carried on episode after episode.

Faust has since moved on to a healthy relationship with Ty Young and is co-parenting with Stevie J. Faust’s current situation has not produced much drama and consequently is not entertaining enough for Love and Hip Hop producers, who allegedly cut her salary by $150,000.

“They want to see wigs flying and drinks thrown and somebody punching somebody in the face,” Faust explained. “That’s what they want to see. And unfortunately, I choose not to participate in that and I’ve had to take a major pay cut because of it. The reason was, I didn’t have enough ‘drama’ in my life. $150,000 I had to take because of it. $150,000 pay cut,” said the reality star.

Faust is unapologetic about leading a happy, drama-free life: “On my last interview, because you know, every season, we have to go back and talk to the producers and they’re like, ‘So what’s going on in your life? X, Y, and Z.’ And I think the second question I was asked was, was Ty cheating on me,” Faust added. “Am I supposed to be f*cked up, in a bad place, being cheated on my whole life?”

What do you think about Mimi’s pay cut? Was she really not entertaining? Do you still want to see her on the show?

On Saturday, the legendary Ice Cube took to Instagram to celebrate the thirtieth anniversary of his debut solo album Amerikkka’s Most Wanted, a project that solidified his status as one of the game’s best lyricists. Coming off the disbanding of his former group N.W.A, it’s not exactly a secret that Cube wasn’t on the best terms with Eazy-E, who took the brunt of the barrage on “No Vaseline.” Cube actually acknowledged his former feud fact during his epic anniversary livestream, going on to provide some behind-the-scenes information on his classic record.

“I actually wrote this for Eazy-E,” prefaces Ice Cube, breaking down the history behind “A Gangsta’s Fairytale.” “But ya’ll know what it is, we wasn’t getting down at the time so I had to take it myself…It’s a trip because off this song, Mr. Rogers sued us. He was mad cause we had the Mr. Rogers theme at the beginning of this shit. It’s a wonderful day in the neighborhood and all that. The n***a sued us, and was getting five cents a record until we took that part off.”

Who’d have thunk that gangsta rap would be a mildly lucrative endeavor for Mr. Rogers? In hindsight, it’s almost comical to imagine the late Mr. Rogers hearing Ice Cube’s Amerikkka’s Most Wanted for the first time and mobilizing the legal eagles with astounding efficiency. If you happened to catch the livestream over the weekend, be sure to hit the comments with any highlights. Where do you rank Cube among the game’s greatest of all time?

A few months ago, reports emerged that Romeo decided to quit over a fake love circle that involved Angela Simmons, Bow Wow, and himself. Though they were merely reports at the time, Master P seemingly fueled speculation after commending his son for moving with integrity. Romeo Miller eventually confirmed the speculation but Master P is making the truth come to light.

Master P took to Instagram to share behind the scenes footage of a disagreement between himself and the producers of the show. “If we gonna do business, let’s do right business,” P told the producer before making it clear that he’s not going to allow any negative portrayals being played of any of the cast on television just for the sake of ratings, especially when it came to the Angela Simmons story plot with Romeo. “She lost her boyfriend, her baby daddy. She lost him to — he got murdered. She don’t need another relationship right now,” he continues.”

“I’m only showing you this so next time you’re watching this show you can use your real judgement and see how they flip peoples words and change positive moments into negative. This is the reason we quit 6 months ago. They edit for drama, we have more important things to worry about than fake producers creating fake love stories. The only way to change this is with ownership,” Master P wrote in the caption/.

Myles Garrett and Odell Beckham Jr. have been through their fair share of turmoil over this past year, especially when it comes to the sport of football. These two are teammates on the Cleveland Browns and they both had to endure a pretty lackluster season with the squad. Garrett had himself an insane incident after he swung a helmet like a weapon at Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph. Meanwhile. Beckham Jr. was charged with assault after slapping a security guard on the butt after LSU won the National Championship.

Today on Twitter, Garrett shared a video of Dennis Rodman and Karl Malone slapping each other on the butt as a way to troll OBJ. In the caption, he wrote: "How @obj thought spanking the cop was gonna go."

When Allen Iverson first entered the NBA, he was coming in at a time where Michael Jordan was dominating with the Chicago Bulls and was well on his way to winning a second three-peat. Despite this Iverson wasn't scared of Jordan and knew he could play some solid offense on him. In fact, there is a stat that Iverson was the only player to ever outscore Jordan in terms of average points, throughout their respective matchups. Jordan clearly recognized the talent in Iverson and when they first played each other, MJ made sure to have some harsh words.

In a recent clip from an old interview posted by Complex Sports, Iverson reveals the first five words MJ ever told him. As he explains, the GOAT said “What’s up you little b*tch?”

Rick Ross is on his 50 Cent shit this afternoon, after news circulated this morning confirming his paternity of former lover and model Briana Camille’s two children.

Apparently, Rick Ross is flipping the script on her– despite it seeming as though it was Camille pursuing legal action against Ross in this child support case, Ross is angling as though he’s been chasing Camille to confirm her DNA. In Ross’ quick video share, he claims “I can’t believe Fat Girl took the blood test, damn, they said she damn near fell running away from them people when they came to make her take the blood test.”

He adds right after, “She took it, and I’s the daddy, and I’s the papi.” 

As far as the caption goes, he included his #FatGirl hashtag and referred to her as his surrogate: “Eyez dat baby papi!! My surrogate always delivers!!! Big Thank you #Fatgirl.”

Check out his commentary below. Despite Ross’ public response, he has yet to have respond to the legal motion Camille filed, demanding a hearing to grant her temporary child support.

We’ll keep you posted as this situation develops.
