A week or so ago, Joseline Hernandez(of VH1's "Love & Hip Hop Atlanta") went on a social media rant towards executive producer of the show, Mona Scott Young. Joseline alleges that Young along with VH1 owes her $150,000. She called out the producers(mostly Young) over how they make the cast of the show fight as well as a barrage of other claims that Joseline made(that I can't remember now since this was a few days ago). It was reported that Joseline quit "Love & Hip Hop Atlanta" over money and in the trailer for tomorrow's reunion special, Joseline is seen exiting the reunion set refusing to take part in the show. On the show's finale which aired last week, a montage of Joseline's most volatile moments while on the show were chronicled which upset Joseline. Joseline said in another social media rant video that producers put together the video because they were upset with Joseline for quitting the show. Fast forward to a few days ago, Mon...

Drake University. Sitting here watching the ID channel which is one of my favorite channels. I'm also eagerly awaiting to watch "American Horror Story: Roanoke". I wish I could say the same for "Empire" but I've pretty much checked out. I try to stick with the show because it is an African American show and I want to support my black people but the show is rather boring. It's only good now once the show goes on hiatus. I need them to step it up or else. I personally think we got spoiled in the first season because every episode then had a huge moment that had everyone talking. Now its not like that and everything is drawn out since the seasons are longer. But anyway I have a lot news tidbits for you today so continue reading. Kid Cudi left a message on social media stating that he was checking himself into rehab. Apparently Kid Cudi has been battling depression and he was ashamed to admit it but he felt that is best for him to do at this time. More...

DOGG POUND: So we are all awaiting the season finale of "Empire" this week on Fox and for the finale none other than Snoop Dogg will be guest starring. I can only imagine what role he will take on. There have been so many twist and turns this season so make sure you watch this Wednesday. BABY LOVE: Benzino and Althea of "Love & Hip Hop Atlanta" fame have announced that they are expecting their first child together. The couple was famously fired from LHHATL after allegedly threatening bodily harm to producer Mona Scott-Young. Congratulations to the couple! EARLY LEAK: Kendrick Lamar is upset at his record label Interscope for prematurely making his new album, "To Pimp a Butterfly" available on iTunes. The album wasn't supposed to be released until March 23 but only the clean version is available at presstime. Should Kendrick be upset or should he just let it slide since his album is now on sale and reviews have been generally good thus far. MOVING ...

MIND CONTROL: K. Michelle will embark on her My Twisted Mind Tour 2015 beginning on February 5 in San Diego, California. The month long trek will end in Indianapolis, Indiana. This is all in support of K. Michelle's newest album which debuted at #1 on the R&B charts late last year. K. Michelle holds the distinction of releasing two #1 R&B albums last year, the first was Rebellious Soul . K. Michelle's success has obviously put a damper on her ex man Memphitz who was throwing shots at her on Instagram and looked pathetic doing so. That might be why he is having trouble in his marriage to Toya Wright. Memphitz has been too busy if you ask me promoting and slandering K. Michelle at the same time. All that time he spends bad mouth K. he should be putting in towards his dooming marriage. Once an abuser always an abuser. Then again I better watch what I say before I get sued! Memphitz is currently suing K. Michelle, VH1 and Mona Scott Young though K. never identified him by...
