Sia has gotten herself all mixed up about Nicki Minaj and Cardi B and the two rappers infamous feud, but the singer has since apologized and tried to put it behind her. On Friday (June 12th), a fan asked Sia if she would ever collaborate with Nicki Minaj. "Have u seen this pic?" the fan asked, referring to a photo of Nicki rocking a wig similar to Sia's signature black and white bob. "Where's the collab with Nicki Minaj? We need it." Sia proceeded to respond to the tweet, seemingly confusing Nicki for her at-one-time foe, Cardi B. "I love Cardi B and although this isn’t a collaboration, I would love to COLLAB with her any day!"
The Barbz were appalled that she'd made such a dreadful mistake, reminding Sia that Nicki and Cardi have had beef for years. However, Sia told fans that they should not be worried about a feud and instead putting their energy into more important matters.
"Dudes. I also like [Nicki Minaj]. I don’t give a sh*t about feuds," she wrote in a since-deleted tweet. "George Floyd was f*cking murdered Breonna Taylor. Murdered. Come on let’s rise in unity. You think Cardi B and Nikki [sic] are so petty that they would want you focusing on a silly feud instead of REAL NEWS?" She went on to tag both rappers in another since-deleted tweet, rhetorically asking them if they were concerned about their feud right now to get the point across to fans. However, out of context, the tweet appears to be calling out Nicki and Cardi for supposedly reigniting their own feud instead of focusing on what really matters. “Hey @iamcardib @NICKIMINAJ you aren’t thinking about a feud right now are you? We are focused on the problem of systemic racism.”
She quickly deleted all the aforementioned tweets, and apologized for accidentally causing outrage. “I totally misunderstood a tweet earlier that has resulted in me making a buffoon out of myself," Sia tweeted. "Sorry @NICKIMINAJ and @iamcardib if you hear about it. Can I just like you both?”
Wale Gets Salty After J. Cole Is Praised For Joining George Floyd Protest
J. Cole is among those who have hit the streets to protest the killing of George Floyd by the Minneapolis police.
Twitter user India Pitts pointed that out and @Wale'd in the same Tweet.
J Cole was out with Fayetteville. If that’s not the dopest Idk what is.. @Wale make us proud #DMV

"J Cole was out with Fayetteville. If that’s not the dopest Idk what is.. @Wale make us proud #DMV," she typed.
In a quickly deleted Tweet, Wale responded to that with a lot of salt.

"I'm sick of a lot of you acting like y'all messiah was the only one outside suck my dick," he typed.
Wale did have some reason to be pissed. He was out protesting in LA, and the Tweet seemed to suggest he wasn't taking action.
Since y’all retweeting. Retweet this too. J. Cole is not the only person out in these streets. Always trying to showcase @Wale in a negative way. Well not today. pic.twitter.com/TPzQMEwkVB

Wale and J. Cole are friends, but this wouldn't be the first time Wale has shown some resentment toward the Dreamville rapper.
Lakeith Stanfield Smacks Lil Wayne For His Words On George Floyd
Lil Wayne has a history of making controversial statements about race and police brutality, so it was no big surprise he said some provocative things about the death of George Floyd at the hands of Minnesota police.
Lil Wayne speaks on the murder in Minneapolis of George Floyd, he says we should blame ourselves for it

"I think when we see these situations, I think we also have to understand that we have to get very specific. ... And what I mean by that is we have to stop viewing it with such a broad view, meaning we have to stop placing the blame on the whole force and the whole everybody or a certain race or everybody with a badge," Wayne said during a discussion with Fat Joe. "We have to actually get into who that person is. And if we want to place the blame on anybody, it should be ourselves for not doing more than what we think we're doing."
Wayne also criticized those who think Tweeting something is taking action.
"Some people put a tweet out and they think they did something. Some people wear a shirt and they think they did something," Wayne explained. "What you gonna do after that? Did you actually help the person? Did you actually help the family? Did you actually go out there and do something? So, if I ain't about to do all that, then I ain't about to do nothing. I'll pray for ya."
Atlanta star Lakeith Stanfield was among those who don't want to hear it from Wayne.
"Wayne STFU," he typed under a vintage photo of police protests.
Here's some more reaction.
Taylor Swift with the hammer for white supremacists while Kanye West rocks his MAGA hat and Lil Wayne points the finger at us. The epitome of skinfolk ain't always your kinfolk.

Lil Wayne literally thought "Wheezy outta here" producer tag was about him, I'm not gonna stress myself out about what he has to say.

Lil Wayne is 100% correct and people want to act like he's not because they'd rather be emotional than logically. https://t.co/Vh6i6pu5Gu

Machine Gun Kelly Claims He’s Killed Eminem
On his new track "Bullets With Names", Machine Gun Kelly declares he has killed Eminem.
View this post on Instagram“Bullets With Names” OUT NOW!! ??????? @thuggerthugger1 @lilduke60 @rjmrla @omgronny
“Killed me a goat so my jacket got stains on it/Wipin’ my nose like I got some cocaine on it/Pulled out his coffin and ate me a plate on it/Called up his bitch, showed my dick, let ’em lay on it," MGK raps.
(Rap Genius says "goat", other places say "ghost", both suggest legendary caucasian Eminem.)
Machine Gun Kelly and Eminem engaged in a highly entertaining beef in September of 2018.
As for MGK killing Shady ... Em's album Music To Be Murdered By -- his second since his spat with Kelly -- just became the second album of the year to go gold.
Machine Gun Kelly, on the other hand, hasn't had much in terms of hits since and may now be better known for his acting than his rapping.

Nicki Minaj Jokingly Shares Why She Hasn’t Collaborated With Kendrick Lamar Yet
A Queen Radio revelation.
The Barbz were excited on Monday (February 10) when Nicki Minaj shared her 17th episode of Queen Radio. The “Yikes” rapper spoke with her “Tusa” collaborator Karol G and 50 Cent even dropped by as a special guest. Fans were able to speak with the rapper directly and ask questions that they’ve been dying to get answered, including one person who was curious about a certain Top Dawg Entertainment emcee.
Jamie McCarthy / Staff / Getty ImagesA fan asked Nicki why she and Kendrick Lamar have yet to work together. She jokingly replied, “The reason why I haven’t collaborated with Kendrick Lamar yet is because he don’t want to get washed.” Then, she went on to praise K-Dot’s skills. “I’m a big fan of him and his talent and I’m looking forward to collaborating with him one day hopefully because he’s animated and I like the animation. And also, he just respects the craft of rap. At this time right now…yeah that’s all I’ll say about that.”
Years ago, Nicki named dropped Kendrick in her song “Make Love” when she rapped: “B*tch I’m the greatest, no Kendrick and no Sia/ I’m the iPhone, you the Nokia.” Later, Kendrick took to Twitter to give Nicki a shout out for the mention, “I love it Nicki Minaj. ???.” Would you want to hear a track from Nicki and Kendrick?
Diplo Responds To Sia’s Sex Proposition, Loves That She’s A "Loose Cannon"
But did he take her up on it, though?
You miss out on 100 percent of the shots you never take, so Sia decided to shoot her shot with Diplo. The LSD (Labrinth, Sia, Diplo) collaborators have made magic in the studio, and Sia admitted in an interview with GQ that she not only admired him as an artist but as a good-looking man she wanted to bed down.
Frazer Harrison / Staff / Getty Images“Much of our relationship is just being spent trying not to have sex so that we wouldn’t ruin our business relationship because he’s super-duper hot,” Sia told the publication. “This year I wrote him a text, and I said, ‘Hey, listen, you’re like one of five people that I’m sexually attracted to, and now that I’ve decided to be single for the rest of my life and I just adopted a son, I don’t have time for a relationship,” Sia added. “If you’re interested in some no-strings sex, then hit me up.'”
While walking the Grammy Awards red carpet on Sunday (January 26), Diplo caught up with PEOPLE and was asked about his friend’s revelation. The correspondent wanted to know if he’d taken Sia up on her offer, to which he playfully replied, “No comment” with a laugh. “I love her to death and value our relationship a lot more.”
Taking that as a negative, Diplo said he wasn’t aware that she was going to share that with the world. “But she’s a loose cannon, and she does whatever she wants,” he said. “Yeah, but she’s spontaneous and insane, so I love her for that.” Watch Diplo’s full clip below.
50 Cent’s "Son" Is Being Bullied At School; Mom Is Suing for Millions
In 2016, 50 Cent met a boy named Dan Fraser and immediately took a shine to him.
He started to refer to Dan as his "son" on Instagram. It appeared he was doing this to taunt his estranged biological son Marquise. It apparently had negative effects on Dan as well. According to the boy's mom, bullies have targetted Dan at his Brooklyn charter school because of the 14-year old's ties to Fif.
“It caused a big uproar in the school," Dan’s mom, Myasia Dickerson, said. "The kids started to follow my son around, tried to put him on Snapchat, tried to take videos of him. They were following him to the train station."
Dickerson says things got really bad last month, and he was viciously attacked in the school stairwell.
"He was attacked from behind as he tried to walk away. He was punched in the head and then the student proceeded to fight him and then he slammed my son’s head onto the ground.”
The boy's mom said he tried to take refuge in a classroom before the assault but was turned away because he wasn't in the class and it was in session.
Now she's suing the Department of Education for $5.5 million in damages.
“Parents have the right to expect a safe environment when they send their child to school," said the family’s attorney, Sanford Rubenstein. “When school personnel fail to provide that, especially when they are on notice of a problem, the school is liable to that child for damages.”
50 hasn't commented. But we think he'd be proud of the lawsuit.
Here's video of Fif teaching Dan to box:
Pepsi Changes Up Slogan & Taps Into EDM with New 2020 Ad Campaign
It’s 2020 and times are changing.
Pepsi is switching things up with a brand new tagline to kick off the decade. Moving forward, “The Choice of the New Generation” and “The Joy of Cola,” will no longer be used.
Instead, Pepsi is going with “That’s What I Like.”
In addition, Pepsi is rolling out five national TV commercials in the coming days during NFL Wild Card Games and the 2020 Golden Globes Telecast. We can expect even more during the Super Bowl.
The brand says the new tagline “is derived from and inspired by loyal Pepsi drinkers who proudly like what they like without worrying about what others will think.”
In the past, the brand has featured music from Britney Spears, Pink, Beyoncé, Enrique Iglesias, Queen, and more. As always, the new commercials from Pepsi have a heavy emphasis on music — featuring singles from Shakira, Missy Elliott, Idris Elba and more.
Plus, there’s a hilarious “DJ” ad. Watch below.
