Chris Brown and Young Thug released their collaborative mixtape Slime & B this week and, according to one of the artists on the ballot, the project was pieced together insanely quickly.
We already know that Young Thug's work ethic in the studio is ridiculous. The man seemingly has an endless stash of unreleased music, recording dozens of songs on any given day. When he announced that he would be releasing a joint tape with Chris Brown a few weeks back, it's highly possible that he hadn't written any of his verses yet because, in a new reveal on Twitter, the Slime God just said that he put together his portions in just one day.

Taking to social media to promote the project, Thugger detailed how seamlessly it all came together, making the revelation.
"I recorded all the verses in one day #OnGod," wrote the rapper.
So far, Slime & B has gotten great reviews from fans and critics who have enjoyed the body of work. Since Thug recorded all of his parts in one day, that's pretty impressive. Clearly, he's got a superior ear.
What did you think of the new mixtape? Will it remain in your music rotation for the next little while or was it a one and done?
Amber Heard Steps Out With New Girlfriend Bianca Butti
Amber Heard stepped out with new girlfriend, Bianca Butti, days after she was heard confessing to hitting ex-husband Johnny Depp in a leaked audio clip from their ongoing abuse case.
Amber Heard and new girlfriend, cinematographer Bianca Butti, attended a WME Pre-Oscar event in Los Angeles on Friday, days after an audio recording of Amber admitting to “hitting” ex-husband Johnny Depp was leaked to the public. This tape serves as evidence in an ongoing domestic abuse case that Amber originally launched against Johnny, accusing him of physical abusing her in their marriage. Johnny had always maintained his innocence by denying her claims, and even pursued legal action to sue her for defamation. Amber responded to the defamation lawsuit last year with stories about various alleged incidents in which he abused her, where she claimed Johnny was often too ‘drunk’ to remember what had happened. However, this resurfaced recording in which she admits to hitting Johnny appears to demonstrate that she abused him.

As for her new romance with the cinematographer? “Amber and Bianca are dating and hooking up,” a source told The Daily Mail. “Amber is not trying to be low key about it. [She] feels comfortable kissing Bianca and holding her hands in public at this point. They started as friends and it turned into something more.”

Amber and Johnny’s defamation case has been pushed back from its original February start date, after Johnny failed to meet a deadline to submit his drug and alcohol use records. The case is set to begin in August later this year.
Remy Ma Put On Blast For Her Questionable Bars About Motherhood In "L&HH" Clip
Remy made a bold statement about what a "real" mother is.
A clip from Monday night's episode of Love & Hip Hop: New York, shows rapper Remy Ma in the recording studio, dropping some bars that did not sit well with viewers. Holding her daughter, Reminisce Mackenzie, in one arm, Remy holds her phone in her other hand, where she reads off the lyrics into the mic. The first few lines, in which Remy spits, "They got this saying, 'integrity comes first.' Social media makes it worse," were not the cause of any controversy surrounding the clip. Instead, the Internet decided to focus on the message—and delivery—of the new few lyrics.
"Real mothers don't...twerk," Remy exclaims, with a pause between "don't" and "twerk" that comes across as way funnier than it should. Because we can't hear the beat that Remy's flow is attempting to match, the pause seems to be non-sensical. The result of Remy's insinuation that a "real," i.e. "good" mother doesn't twerk, as if a woman can't do both, coupled with this comical brief silence had the Internet in tears.
However, it's the next few lines that are sparking more serious discourse on the clip. Many folks are taking issue with the lyrics that follow. "She a nurse. Wash the clothes, make dinner and dessert" further re-enforce Remy's implications that, instead of twerking, a real mother has a "proper" profession like being a nurse, and does domestic duties like laundry and cooking. Remy's recording session then gets interrupted by her baby, and the timing almost makes it seem as if Reminisce herself is objecting to her own mother's ideas about motherhood. While this is obviously just a coincidence and good editing, plenty of people did object to Remy's ideas, calling her out on her hypocrisy and saying the lyrics are "misogynistic."
