Brandy responds after Mase and Shyne say they both dated her at the same time. As previously reported, during a recent podcast discussion about Brandy went viral as the It Is What It Is podcast, recalled both Mase and Shyne dating the songstress. View this post on Instagram Ray J caught wind of the conversation and shared some words for the men. “Keep my sister’s name out of your mouth, and if not, I’m gonna slap the fcking daylights out of you when I see you,” he said. “One thing n****s ain’t gonna do is talk sh*t about my sister without me going back on these big head ass n****s. Shyne, Ma$e, and Cam. I don’t know, I never had a problem with them, but I saw some sh*t today where they gotta know that a n***a gonna come back strong and say some sh*t because a n***a is not gonna let a n***a say anything and laugh and giggle and joke about a n***a’s sister without me going big.” View this post on Instagram Brandy Speaks: Brandy also caught wind of the comments and issued a statement via Instagram. “In the late 90’s, I had a platonic friendship with rapper Shyne. In an unfortunate turn of events, that friendship is now being mischaracterized as ‘we dated.’ Unequivocally, we did not! I’m not sure why an untrue narrative about a scope of what was a friendship more than 20-years ago is being reshaped during his current media interviews.” The statement continued, “people telling their version of my story is why I am releasing my upcoming memoir “PHASES.” It’s time to tell my truth and debunk many of the misnomers that people think they know about my life.” “Additionally, I rarely release statements and typically ignore stories about me in the headlines even when they’re false. But when I do decide to standup for myself, I handle things on my own. While, I love my brother Ray J, I don’t condone or support the messages he’s shared on social media and have not asked him to defend me in any form.” View this post on Instagram

Doja Cat doesn’t shy away from sharing exactly what she wants in love and life. In a recent Vogue interview, the 30-year-old rapper and singer described herself as a serial dater, unapologetic about her romantic choices. “I’m 30, so I’m ovulating and horny,” she said, leaving no room for sugarcoating her feelings about attraction or relationships. This candid honesty has become a hallmark of her public persona, whether performing on stage or speaking with major publications. What has shifted, however, is her emotional approach to dating. Therapy has become a cornerstone in helping her maintain independence and clarity in relationships. “I don’t know what I would’ve done without it or where I’d be without it,” she reflected. “I’ve been able to see through a lot of the fog that I couldn’t see through before.” The lessons she’s learned have changed how she navigates distance and insecurity. She no longer relies on tarot cards or constant messaging for reassurance. Instead, she has cultivated self-awareness that allows her to enjoy solitude while keeping healthy boundaries. This growth now guides the way she connects with partners. Finding Peace in Independence “This is what therapy has done for me,” she said. “It’s allowed me to be away and be at peace without being like, ‘I need tarot cards. I need an answer. Text me.’ I don’t do any of that anymore. It’s very nice.” Playfully, she shared her favorite moment in a relationship: “I love when they leave,” emphasizing that it signals healthy attachment rather than emotional coldness. Looking ahead, Doja Cat is preparing for the next leg of her Vie Tour, which will carry her across North America from fall through December 2026, culminating with a headline performance at Madison Square Garden.

Jay-Z is gearing up to celebrate two of his most iconic albums with back-to-back performances at Yankee Stadium this summer. The rapper will honor the 30th anniversary of Reasonable Doubt on July 10, followed by a July 11 show commemorating the 25th anniversary of The Blueprint. The announcement comes after months of speculation that Jay-Z was planning milestone events tied to these albums. Just yesterday, he was confirmed as a headliner for the Roots Picnic on May 30, marking his first major solo stage appearance since joining Beyoncé on the final stop of her international “Cowboy Carter” tour in Paris. The 2026 Roots Picnic, running May 30-31, will feature Jay-Z performing alongside the Roots, their first collaboration on stage in over a decade. In the lead-up to these celebrations, Jay-Z has made subtle nods to the anniversaries, including rebranding his name as JAŸ-Z on streaming services—a nod to the stylization used on Reasonable Doubt. He also re-released the original Dead Presidents track and unveiled the video for “Wishing on a Star,” featuring Gwen Dickey, on YouTube, reinforcing the nostalgic rollout for fans. View this post on Instagram Jay-Z Celebrates Legacy, No New Album Yet Amid the festivities, speculation about new music has swirled, fueled by hints from collaborators in recent interviews. Rapper Cash Cobain later clarified his earlier claim, noting that Jay-Z told him he is “absolutely not dropping an album” anytime soon. For now, the focus remains on these landmark performances, offering audiences a chance to revisit the music that shaped Jay-Z’s career and solidified his legacy in hip-hop.

A police officer, mocked by Afroman in a music video following a 2022 raid on his home, broke down in tears during a court hearing on Tuesday. She, along with several colleagues, has filed a lawsuit claiming the rapper profited from their likeness without permission. After the raid, which uncovered no criminal evidence, Afroman used security camera footage to create a music video for his song “Lemon Pound Cake.” He also released a separate clip specifically targeting Adams County Deputy Sheriff Lisa Phillips, titled “Licc’em Low Lisa.” During the hearing, Phillips was visibly emotional while viewing the footage. In total, four deputies, two sergeants, and a detective are pursuing claims for song revenue, music videos, merchandise, and concert ticket sales. Authorities had a probable cause warrant for narcotics and kidnapping. However, investigators found no illegal activity during the search. At Tuesday’s hearing, Afroman appeared in a suit patterned after the American flag. He offered a robust defense of his actions. He said, “All of this is their fault.” Additionally, he argued, “If they hadn’t wrongly raided my house, there would be no lawsuit, I would not know their names, they wouldn’t be on my home surveillance system, and there would be no songs … my money would still be intact.” Afroman’s Rap Response Sparks Court Clash With Police Afroman previously elaborated on his reasoning in an NPR interview, reflecting on the personal impact of the raid. He said, “I asked myself, as a powerless Black man in America, what can I do to the cops that kicked my door in, tried to kill me in front of my kids, stole my money and disconnected my cameras?” He continued, “And the only thing I could come up with was make a funny rap song about them and make some money, use the money to pay for the damages they did and move on.” The case raises questions about the intersection of artistic expression and the rights of individuals depicted in media, particularly when law enforcement is involved. In the meantime, court proceedings are ongoing as the officers continue to seek compensation for the alleged misuse of their images and likenesses.

50 Cent has long made a habit of taking aim at his rivals online, and he did so again today, responding to fresh developments surrounding Diddy. According to reports, a court heard testimony from an escort service owner. The owner alleged that Diddy requested over 30 male escorts. Additionally, legal representatives indicated that state criminal charges could be forthcoming. Unsurprisingly, 50 Cent’s response on Instagram reflected a mix of amusement and bravado. “New charges court doc’s say Diddy raped a male escort then threatened him saying I got 2 pac hit,” he wrote, adding, “What the f*ck you think I’ll do to you. Ya Man is a Mook Yo !” The feud between the two music moguls is long-running. Last December, 50 Cent released a Netflix docuseries chronicling Diddy’s alleged missteps, Sean Combs: The Reckoning. The show has amassed over 50 million views. However, the series has also drawn legal scrutiny. Weeks after its debut, a former sex worker featured in the documentary filed suit. She claimed her interview had been manipulated in ways that misrepresented her experience. Lawsuit Alleges Story Was Misrepresented The lawsuit states, “Defendants deliberately edited, distorted, and misrepresented plaintiff’s account to portray Cassie Ventura—plaintiff’s primary trafficker—as a victim, while omitting and suppressing plaintiff’s testimony that he was sex trafficked by Ventura, thereby inflicting severe harm upon plaintiff’s reputation.” It further alleges, “This calculated misrepresentation was done in furtherance of defendant Curtis Jackson’s personal and business vendetta against Sean Combs and to create a commercially profitable narrative that silenced a documented trafficking victim to protect a documented trafficker.”
