Nicki Minaj is shooting down rumors that her and Meek Mill are kaput. Speaking of Meek Mill, his beef with Drake has been reignited but does anyone care though? Keyshia Cole and Bow Wow continue to dance around whether or not their dating or smashing. Keyshia recently appeared in a picture with Bow Wow's assistant just adding fuel to the fire. And speaking of Bow Wow, his ex Ciara who is now an attention whore is postponing her Jackie tour. Was anyone gonna go anyway? But she is postponing her tour to work on what she describes, her "best album ever". So is Future gonna be working with you on your new album? Ciara's albums do shit in terms of sale but she is forever releasing albums. I can't be mad at her though because she probably has more albums than most R&B singers. At this point Ciara should go independent. At least she will benefit more financially when her album only sells 15K in total sales but I digress. And last but not least, who knew Rihanna...

T.I. and Tiny have revealed that their having a baby girl. It was revealed a few months ago that Tiny was with child. Tiny's friend and former band mate, Kandi Burruss was apart of the "Real Housewives of Atlanta" reunion which taped Thursday in Atlanta. Many of the stars from the show posted pictures via their perspective social media pages, Kandi included. The two part reunion is set to air on March 27. Will you be watching? Cause I know I will. I'm ready to see who will get dragged. In other news I started following Kanye West on Twitter and Kanye West says he's working on another album to be released this Summer. "The Life of Pablo" his current album is available on TIDAL. Have you heard it yet? Well until next time folks! Thanks for reading!

Trina was involved in a scuffle last night that turned physical. According to TMZ, Trina and friends were leaving a performance when two of her friends got into a fight. Trina then stood up for her friends to help shoo off the hecklers. Trina apparently got so upset that she struck the guy and it was all caught on tape. It was definitely Trina in rare form. Go to TMZ.com to check the video out. And Beyoncé is feeling the heat from her Super Bowl halftime performance. Cops are vowing to not be present at her "Formation World Tour" since they feel her new video for the song, "Formation" calls for police brutality. I don't think Beyoncé is against the police at all. It's just a bunch of people in their feelings because they have nothing else to go on about at this time. My friend and I were talking and he said he ain't buying no tickets to Beyoncé's tour until he hears some new music. Well there you go! I definitely won't be attending because I d...

Azealia Banks is obviously still feeling salty for being left off of Rihanna's new album but shit happens. Anyway Azealia called out Rihanna saying her new video for her single, "Work" is a retread of Beyoncé's "Baby Boy" video. Azealia later deleted the tweet but leave it up to Azealia to kick up dust and start shit. Meanwhile Azealia finally released her new single, "The Big Big Beat" to rave reviews of course. So have you seen the "Work" video and does it remind you of "Baby Boy" or nah? "Work" is also the #1 single on Billboard Hot 100 this week giving Rihanna her 14th #1 single on that chart. Over the weekend on social media Bow Wow posted a picture of a woman rubbing his head which was later identified as Keyshia Cole. Keyshia Cole has yet to comment on the photo. But what an odd pairing if this is true. But then again Keyshia Cole's taste in men varies from Young Jeezy to Daniel "Boobie" Gibson(h...

Nicki Minaj's "The Pink Print" has been certified double Platinum! Future's "DS2" has been certified Gold and Big Sean's "Dark Sky Paradise" has been certified Platinum. According to RIAA, they have now implemented streaming audio along with album shipments and sales to the cumulative sales when it comes to certifications if that makes sense. You can go over to RIAA for more information. The new rules of course has some in an uproar but what else is new? So has anyone heard Kanye's new album? The album went to TIDAL last weekend after Kanye's bizarre performance on "SNL". Now I read that the album may not be for sale at all. I don't know what that's about but also there's more to the story regarding Kanye dissing Taylor Swift on the song "Famous". Apparently someone on the Grammy commite(sp) revealed that Taylor Swift heard "Famous" before it was released contrary to reports that says she hadn...

Love is in the air or then again not so much! It depends on who you ask! Wiz Khalifa and Amber Rose may be on the path to reconciliation. The two have recently started following each other again on social media and have done a great job co-parenting. What do you think about Wiz and Amber back together? Speaking of getting back together, Sage The Gemini is trying to get back with Jordin Sparks. The rapper expressed his love for his ex-girlfriend via social media which Wendy Williams found tacky. I thought it was cute but he wants the world to know he wants his girl back. It leads me to wonder what happened between the two. Maybe he did the "ultimate no no" with her, whatever that is huh? Ha! While we're on the subject of reunions, Lloyd Banks and The Game were seen together in Dubai much to the dismay of 50 Cent who has been at war with The Game for years. I feel like 50's beef with nearly everyone has hindered his artists like Young Buck and Lloyd Banks. I feel Lloy...

Kanye West is not only making headlines for his music but also his tweets. The rapper claims he's $53 million dollars in debut and has called on Facebook's own Mark Zuckerberg(sp) to help bail him out. I don't really know what to say about this but I guess this goes to show no matter how much money you got, you still struggling just like everyone else in some capacity. Now I wouldn't think so in the capacity of money but then again I don't know these stars bank account. In other music news..whatever transpired a few months ago between Cassie and Diddy seem to be resolved. Cassie recently starting following Diddy on Instagram again which means the lovebirds are back on after a public fallout with allegations of cheating. Cassie has been busy overseas and making movies. She stars in the movie, "The Perfect Match" opening in theaters next month. I guess I'm not surprised that Cassie and Diddy are back together. I guess it was just a matter of time befor...

Kanye West made a much publicized appearance on "SNL" last night complete with a bevy of guests including Future, Young Thug, Chance the Rapper, Kelly Price, The-Dream, and Future who all happen to be on his new album, "The Life of Pablo". "TLOP" is now available exclusively on TIDAL and will be available elsewhere a week from now. And in the midst of Kanye's new album release are the stories about him dissing Taylor Swift which Kanye says was her idea and but Taylor's camp is dismissing the claim. Then there's a dig at Ray J where Kanye proclaims himself as "rich" and even informed Brandy that he mentioned Ray J on the new album. All this talk about the album, Kanye performed two songs, "Ultra High Beams" and "Highlights" if I'm not mistaken. In other music news, Lil' Kim is clapping back after years of claims she's lightened her skin. On social media, the famed rapper addressed that she only lighten...

Hey guys! Once again I'm sorry for the lack of updates but I have been working a lot. Ciara has sued Future for $15 million dollars. Future is also planning to counter sue Ciara and if he does I don't blame him. Ciara has really become an annoyance to me. Ever sine she's been with Russell Wilson, she has been flaunting her relationship and forcing it down our throats. I think Brandy made a comment on her Snapchat and I'm not sure who she was referring to but I think she was throwing some shade at Ciara. She said something along the lines of "people calling the paparazzi to tell them where their gonna be" and to me that's what I think Ciara does but enough about her. Kanye West has retitled his album for the fifth time, this time settling on "The Life of Pablo". Who is Pablo? No one knows except him and he just hosted a listening party for fans and his family namely the Kardashian clan who came dressed in all white and gold and blonde hair. Lil...

Azealia Banks is set to release her new single sometime today. The single is entitled, "The Big Big Beat". She describes the song as a "Detroit House Style Vibe" with "Diana Ross teas". It is the first single to be released from her "Slay Z" mixtape. While we await on that, just yesterday I was talking about Beyoncé and how she was performing at the Super Bowl. Well low and behold Queen Bey dropped a video to the song "Formation" exclusively on TIDAL but of course it made its way to other outlets. The song is reportedly the song Bey will perform during the halftime show. Of course the video sent shockwaves through social media and rumors of her new album being released have reached a fever pitch. In other music news, K. Michelle finally met up with her estranged ex-boyfriend Memphitz aka Mickey Wright. Memphitz is responsible for giving K. her first record deal and they later had a relationship that turned violent. Several accusations...

I apologize for the lack of updates. There is really no excuse besides the fact that I've been working and sometimes just really tired and pooped out at the end of the day. So to catch you all up to speed on what's been going on since I last left, let's see...well Rihanna's "ANTI" album is #1 this week after debuting at #27 last week due to early release. She is currently shooting the video to her new single, "Work" featuring Drake. Speaking of new albums, Wiz Khalifa just released his new album, "Khalifa" and Future drops "EVOL"(love spelled backwards). Erica Dixon of "Love & Hip Hop Atlanta" fame says she won't be returning to the show that made her a reality star and to be honest I don't blame her. Her storyline wasn't going anywhere and it was basically each season her rehashing her issues with Scrappy. I'm sure the re-addition of K. Michelle will more than make up for her absence. Hmm what else...

Beyonce & Jay Z Finalize Post-Nup Agreement, Is Their Marriage Coming To An End Soon? Once again the Beyoncé & Jay Z divorce rumors have popped up again! Do you think its true this time?
