After much anticipation, the trailer for Donald Glover‘s new movie Bando Stone and the New World has finally premiered. After a last-minute post to Instagram, Glover alerted fans the movie’s trailer premiered in IMAX theaters. Additionally, fans are awaiting the release of the film’s soundtrack and lead single, “Lithionia.”

According to HipHop DX,  the trailer has not been released online, but fans have captured a video of the trailer’s premiere and posted it on YouTube. The clip shows a fictional famous singer, Bando Stone, and his attempt to survive in a post-apocalyptic world. He eventually crosses paths with others who survived, and they team up to find their way to safety. However, they must battle killer creatures and large moving lasers from the sky along the way.

Glover’s new movie has a sci-fi element but maintains his typical comedic style. Nevertheless, this movie is not all fun and games. The film is seemingly attempting to cause viewers to look within. Towards the end of the trailer, it raises the question, “What are you when the world ends?” The film also stars scary and thriller movie veteran Jessica Allain.

HipHop DX also states the movie will screen exclusively in IMAX theaters, but a release date has not yet been announced.

In May 2024, Glover, aka Childish Gambino, released his fifth studio album, “Atavista.” The album served as a re-release of his 2020 album, 3.15.2020. Along with the announcement of the album, Gambino also stated that his next album, Bando Stone and the New World soundtrack, would be his last as Childish Gambino.

While on his GILGA Radio livestream, the actor stated, “We’re releasing “Atavista,” but after that, there’s the final Childish Gambino album, a soundtrack for the fans.”

However, much like Glover’s new movie, the release date has not been announced but is expected before the summer ends. The rapper has not revealed why he will no longer be making music under the moniker. It has also remained unclear if Gambino plans to cease making music altogether. Still, fans are anticipating the album’s lead single, “Lithionia’s,” release on July 2nd. The song is named after his hometown in Georgia. Music listeners may recall the song was leaked, and Glover is pointing fingers at Audiomack.

On June 26, 2024, the Atlanta star hopped on Instagram Live and stated, “Lithonia’ coming out July 2. That got leaked s**t kinda pissed me off, to be honest.” He continued, “That’s another reason why y’all don’t get good s**t. For what? It’s not valuable enough, it’s just a single. And I know who did it. Audiomack, f***ing no soup for you. You’re not getting the album now. That’s what time I’m on.”

Despite the leak, 2024 is a big year for the “Redbone” rapper. In Addition to Glover’s new music and his seventh studio album, he will also be touring the world. “The New World” tour is set to begin in August 2024 and end in February 2025. Fan favorites Willow Smith and Aamarae are joining him on tour.

ATL rapper Jeezy had a lot to say on JT‘s “Okay (Remix),” using his verse to address his recent divorce from Jeannie Mai.

The split, which they announced last September due to “irreconcilable differences,” has been messy. The former couple recently finalized all their divorce drama, and Jeezy made it clear he’s moving on. Dropping the line, “Summer ’24, I’m single as a dollar bill,” he announced he’s back on the market.

However, Jeezy didn’t stop there. He addressed the serious accusations from Jeannie, who claimed he endangered their daughter by keeping guns in their home.

Jeezy fired back in his lyrics, “Why you got choppas in the house? ‘Cause I’m a n**ga still,” standing firm against her allegations.

As BOSSIP previously reported, the court drama included Jeannie expressing fears for their child’s safety, alleging Jeezy left unsecured firearms around. Jeezy has consistently denied these claims, and the ex-couple has since settled on a childcare arrangement.

Safe to say fans enjoyed the remix taking to Jeezy and JT’s comment section saying, “This is taking me back to YOUNG jeezy frfr!” Another fan wrote, “This sh*t has been on repeat since it dropped in my car on MAX volume!”

Ending his feature with a mic drop, Jeezy rapped, “Ever lost a real one? You dropped the ball, baby,” making it clear he’s unbothered and ready for what’s next. As of now, Jeannie Mai has yet to respond to the track.

While some Bravo Housewives are being handed suspensions, Sheree Whitfield was given another degree! The former Real Housewives of Atlanta star recently received an honorary doctorate from Harvest Christian University. However, some social media users are not impressed.

On June 21, 2024, Sheree Whitfield posted to her Instagram a picture of herself dressed in a graduation robe and cap. She revealed she was given an honorary doctoral degree in business administration entrepreneurship and referred to herself as “Dr. Whitfield.”

The reality TV star also shared that this degree marks the second honorary degree she has received. According to Meaww, Trinity International University of Ambassadors awarded Whitfield an Honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters in 2018. Though it is an accomplishment, commenters on her post were disturbed by her declaration to address her as “Doctor.”

@whitofmiracles stated, “A lot of celebrities in the comments either do not know what an honorary certificate is or just cupping for likes. No one hates She by Sheree, but this does not hold any value!! Let us not put a degree mill in the same category as a Proper PHD!!”

Another user, @dan_wright_rn, said, “was thrilled until I read it was honorary. Can’t call yourself a doc unless you go through defending your thesis, examination, and met all doctoral requirements. I have three degrees I have worked, stressed, and many sleepless nights to study/write papers. I can’t congratulate someone who didn’t earn it like the many of us who are still paying student loans years later. Sorry. Not sorry. Still love ya gal.”

Nevertheless, the mother of three is celebrating the honor. She even went as far as to change her name to “Dr. Sheree Whitfield” on Instagram. In her caption, she thanked God, her family, friends, and supporters.

X (formerly known as Twitter) Reacts To Sheree Whitfield’s Honorary Degree

While Instagram commenters were less than impressed with Sheree’s honorary doctorate, X users are more so irritated with Sheree’s claiming of the title “doctor.” Some users were confused about her receiving a degreee in business administration. Though Whitfield has businesses that she tends too, users expressed that they were not successful enough for her to be honored with a degree. One commenter even stated that Kandi Buruss would have been the better choice.

Other X users were more concerned with her referring to herself as a “doctor,” while some found it odd that a Christian university would award Whitfield the honor. One social media user claimed that the RHOA star simply isn’t intelligent enough to be given an honorary degree.

Sheree has not made further comments addressing the backlash and seems to be happy with her two doctorate degrees. Congratulations to Sheree for receiving the honor!

Big Mama turned Birthday Bash into Big Latto Bash as the first female headliner in the Atlanta HOT 107.9 station festival’s history. She also rocked the sold-out Radio One event’s stage with a night of epic guest performers. The ClayCo Cake Clapper set the stage on fire and put on for her hometown with local legends and favorites like Usher, Summer Walker, 21 Savage, and more.

Latto applied pressure before she even hit the stage, reminding everyone to some respect on her name.

“The first Atlanta rap b***h to go gold! The first Atlanta rap b***h to go platinum, double platinum, triple platinum. The first female headliner for Birthday Bash. F**k that, Big Latto Bash!” Latto said before making her grand entrance.

The packed crowd in State Farm Arena turned up to Latto’s hits like “Sunday Service,” “B***h From Da South,” “Put It On Da Floor,” and “It’s Giving.”

From one Atlanta legend to another, Latto threw it back with Roscoe Dash taking the stage.

The high-energy hit-maker had everyone “Back Outside,” like Anycia.

The Grammy-winning girls’ girl put on for her fellow ladies in the game. She showed love to the women who came before her like LHHATL’s Rasheeda and “Knuck If You Buck” baddie Princess.

Latto also shared the stage with Flo Milli, who recently hopped on the “Sunday Service (Remix)” with Megan Thee Stallion.

Mariah The Scientist brought that “my man, my man, my man” energy and had everyone screaming to free her man, Young Thug.

Of course, Latto reunited with her rumored romantic entangler, 21 Savage, on the Birthday Bash stage. Was it getting hot in there was it just 21’s “Big Energy” with Latto?

Summer Walker’s sultry singing only made it even hotter.

Big Mama really brought the stars out with Usher slowing it down for a minute.

The sold-out arena was already going wild, but Usher popping out took it to another level.

Latto closed out her action-packed performance with the name of her new album, Sugar Honey Iced Tea.

Fans quickly clocked the similarity to Ice Spice’s “Think U The S**t (Fart).” Latto seemingly shaded Ice and the song on X with a post of her cake hinting at her album title and the caption, “Think I’m the s**t, b***h ?????”

Latto not only made history as the first female headliner at Birthday Bash, but also gave fans around the world a first look at how they do it in the A. She live-streamed her performance and even included behind-the-scenes footage of her getting ready backstage. We love Latto’s playfulness, but these moments and her handling of technical difficulties mid-performance show off her hard work and dedication.

Check out the stream of Latto making history on the Birthday Bash stage below.

Congratulations on the incredible and innovative Birthday Bash performance,  Latto!

Looks like Netflix definitely got the memo because the streaming platform has a four episode docuseries set to stream beginning July 16th!

Check out the trailer below:

A synopsis for the series reads:

Simone Biles has unfinished business. At the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, she was one of the biggest stories leading into the Games.

But in sport, as in life, competitions do not always go as planned. And for Simone, the world had a front row seat as her private struggle with mental health exploded on the international stage – forcing her to withdraw from the competition.

Since then, Simone has put in the hard work: facing the difficult traumas of her past, learning to manage her mental health, embracing her journey, and in the process, rebuilding her gymnastics from the ground up. Her courage to soar knows no bounds as this summer she plans to return to the Olympic stage once again to do what she’s always done – be the best Simone that she can be. Because through it all, Simone still rises.

Biles took to Instagram to promote the new series

We love that Biles’ husband Jonathan Owens and good friend/teammate Aly Raisman are taking part in this. We’re definitely tuning in!

Remy Ma, JaySon Scott, Shooting, Darius Guillebeaux, first-degree

Remy Ma is supporting her son, JaySon “Jace” Scott, as he faces a recent first-degree murder charge. According to People, Scott, 23, was arrested on June 18 in connection with the 2021 shooting death of Darius Guillebeaux, 47, in Queens, New York. Scott and another suspect, 22-year-old Richard Swygert, were both taken into custody.

In a statement to TMZ, Remy vehemently denied the charges against her son.

“We stand by Jayson’s innocence and pray that the NYPD will conduct a complete and thorough investigation to reveal the truth. This is undoubtedly a difficult time for my family and me,” the “Lean Back” artist said. “While we sincerely appreciate the love and support we have received from all of you, we kindly ask for privacy as our legal team works to prove JaySon’s innocence.”

Remy Ma has hired attorney Dawn Florio, who specializes in complex criminal cases and investigations to represent her eldest son.

“As his mother, I want to address this situation personally but have been strongly advised by his legal counsel not to say anything — as most people in similar situations are informed by their attorneys due to it being an active case.”

Scott And The Second Suspect Are Facing Multiple Charges

According to People, a spokesperson from the New York Police Department says Scott faces charges including first and second-degree murder, reckless endangerment in the first degree, and two counts of criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree. 

Similarly, police stated that 22-year-old Richard Swygert has been charged with first-degree murder, reckless endangerment in the first degree, and two counts of criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree.

The charges stem from a shooting incident that occurred in Queens after authorities responded to a 911 call reporting a male shot at the intersection of 148th Street and Rockaway Boulevard on June 7, 2021.

“Upon arrival, officers observed a 47-year-old male, unconscious and unresponsive, with multiple gunshot wounds to the head and chest,” police said. “EMS responded to the location and transported the victim to Jamaica Hospital Medical Center, where he was pronounced deceased.” The victim was later identified as Guillebeaux.

Investigators believe that Scott and the second suspect are responsible for Guillebeaux’s killing in Queens. However, they are also exploring the possibility that it may have been a contracted assassination, TMZ noted. 

An arraignment is anticipated for Wednesday.

Shade slingin’ housewife Porsha Williams and perennially petty Petroleum CEO Simon Guobadia are back to trading shade with the latter calling the idea of a reconciliation romp between them “disgusting.”

Things began on June 17, when the Nigerian businessman shared on Instagram a photo of a vehicle resembling the $398,000 Rolls Royce Ghost he gifted Williams for their engagement in 2022. The 60-year-old expressed his excitement about adding the car back to his Rolls Royce collection.

“My favorite color for a Rolls Royce interior is obviously Mandarin,” Guobadia captioned a photo of himself standing in front of one of his expensive vehicles.

“I have owned 3 of them in the last 7 years. I’m looking forward to a unification of all 3 of Mandarin interior color Rolls Royces in the very near future! Happy Monday.”

Porsha Williams Cried Foul Over Simon Guobadia’s Post

It didn’t take long for the petty post to circle back to Williams, who clapped back with a shady Instagram post of her own. She alleged that the entrepreneur sold two of his previous vehicles in order to afford his Rolls Royce Specter.

“Unification of three ?! Meanwhile one RR Dawn was sold along with the Ferrari to buy the one [Rolls Royce] Specter #GoWayFromMeWifDis #HappyInstaFlex #FineGrannyWithPimples,” The Real Housewives of Atlanta (RHOA) star wrote in a since-deleted post, according to The Bravo Shaderoom.

In the caption and comments section, Williams showed no mercy, accusing her soon-to-be-ex-husband of leasing some of his past vehicles.

“Sassy10minPost #Turnin2LeaseGet1 #FlexisLife #CloutGang,” the 42-year-old reality TV star wrote.

Guobadia couldn’t take the heat and offered a snide response on his Instagram page.

“Here we go again with Underground Railroad concerning herself with why an experienced car enthusiast of 14-years, make a strategic business decision to conduct multi-million dollar car trades. Stay in the Mercedes Benz I brought you in your name.”

In the caption, he added;

“Film in your own Assets….Not mine! I worked for mine. SMDH #ignoranceisadeadlydisease (Are you happy now? Now go read again for context).”

In a subsequent post, Guobadia implied that Williams was attempting to alter the narrative of his perceived villainy, shifting it from accusations of “fleeing the country to Dubai” to claims of him being “broke and selling luxury cars.”

“Waiting for next narrative,” he penned.

As previously reported, Guobadia reportedly filed a cease and desist letter, urging court officials to prohibit Williams from featuring his pricey 2021 Rolls Royce Ghost in the upcoming season of RHOA.

According to court documents, Guobadia believes that he should possess full authority over the vehicle since he purchased and insured the car solely in his name that year. As evidence, he included documents demonstrating both purchase and ownership, along with a copy of the vehicle insurance card.

“Mr. Guobadia does not consent to the release, disclosure, or publication of the Rolls Royce, nor does he consent to the taping, filming, photography, or recording of the Rolls Royce, including any aspects of any activity in or about the Rolls Royce,” Guobadia’s cease and desist letter read.

Hit the flip for the latest on these two including Simon slamming the idea of makeup sex with Porsha.

On Tuesday, TheBravoShadeRoom shared a screenshot from Simon Guobadia’s Instagram comments where he gagged at the idea of having “makeup sex” with his ex.

“They say makeup sex is good for a relationship sometimes. Have you guys tried that because we the people are tired,” wrote @Wesley121375.

To which Simon responded;

“That’s disgusting [sick face emoji].”

Someone’s got a lot of gall…

Will these two ever stop shading each other?

Simon Guobadia took to Instagram on June 16 to seemingly taunt Kenya Moore after reports surfaced that she would not be appearing in the upcoming season of The Real Housewives of Atlanta (#RHOA).

The 60-year-old Nigerian businessman didn’t hold back, poking fun at Moore, who was recently accused of showing “explicit images” of RHOA newcomer Brittany Eady at the opening of her new hair spa, which led to her allegedly being suspended from the show. 

“Staying out of Simon’s business is a real flex. Look at god this season #onerollsroycethisseason,” he wrote.

In the caption, he added,

I keep to myself and show everyone love and respect. When you take it upon yourself to join, and assist the devil with their narrative; do not be surprised when some of their bad energy (juju) make a pit stop at your doorstep.”

In May, Moore, 53, stepped in to defend her castmate, Porsha Williams, after Guobadia congratulated Shamea Morton on receiving a brand new Rolls Royce for her birthday, making her the “only cast member” with the pricey vehicle. Moore made it clear that she already owned a Rolls Royce, which she claimed to have purchased on her own.

 “Simon – I have a RR, but I bought my own. RHOA. #Selfmadequeen,” Moore reportedly clapped back, according to Collider. 

Guobadia’s estranged wife, Williams, also slammed her soon-to-be-ex-husband with a shady response that read;

 “Simon, don’t forget and a debt-free husband who is a US citizen! My bestie is winning. Welcome to RHOA Queen Mumbi!”

Amid their contentious divorce battle, Guobadia recently filed a cease and desist order, urging RHOA producers to prevent Williams from appearing on the show in his 2021 Rolls Royce Ghost. The luxury vehicle, valued at $398,000, was a gift from Guobadia to Williams shortly before their wedding.

Kenya Moore’s Reported Suspension From RHOA

As for Moore’s suspension from RHOA, it’s unclear whether she will return for Season 16 of the Bravo hit show. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Moore allegedly displayed sensitive photos of Eady at her Kenya Moore Hair Spa event after she allegedly discovered the risque images online. Bravo producers reportedly filmed the incident.

Addressing the situation on Instagram, Eady felt like she was being “HAZED” by Moore, a veteran cast member.

“It’s never a good feeling being targeted or HAZED BY SOMEONE I thought would embrace me into a new circle, that I never met,” she wrote, accusing Moore of “bullying” her.

In an X post published June 8, Moore vehemently denied the allegations. 

“I would never engage in revenge porn, I have never distributed private images or footage of anyone, nor solicited images owned by others to use to threaten or blackmail. I have always been vindicated. I can’t talk about STORY even with people planting fake news,” she wrote, adding; 

“I have always been vindicated. I can’t talk about story even with people planting fake news.”

She also spoke about the suspension rumors in an Instagram Live video on June 14. Despite the news, Moore assured fans that she would not be “going anywhere.”

The family of a 9-year-old who died at Astroworld is calling out Travis Scott for his latest purchase of a $5.5 million luxury car.

During an interview with TMZ, Bill Hillard, the family’s attorney, said “Ezra would still be alive today, enjoying his summer, if Travis would’ve spent half of what he paid for the Bugatti on simple safety measures at the deadly music festival.” Both the family and attorney simply believe it’s just not a good look.

We reported last year how Ezra was one of the 10 victims who were trampled at Astroworld. His family sued Travis before he died from his injuries and now Ezra’s family is criticizing Travis for his recent purchase.

Travis treated himself to an all new Bugatti Veyron Chiron Super Sport despite the mountain of lawsuits he’s facing. Ezra’s attorney believes Travis has every right to live life as he sees fit, including buying what he wants, however Hillard deems Travis’ choices as “excessive” and says everything Travis does should be questioned because of what happened at Astroworld.

At this moment no one from Travis’ team has released a statement. Do you think Travis’ purchase was inconsiderate and excessive? Let us know your thoughts below.
