Fans Call DJ Khaled “FAKE” After Tantrum Reports

Whew chile! Dj Khaled is catching heat after a report exposed how allegedly nasty and rude he was towards his label over his flopping album streams. A source says Khaled stormed in Epic records and with his entourage and was “angry” and “yelling” after finding that his recent album failed to debut at the top of the charts. Reportedly he went on an EPIC rant that turned folks off who work for him.

Page Six reports:

 ‘He threw a temper tantrum,” blaming the also-ran album placing on his label chiefs’ not understanding streaming services and bundle deals.

A second source, who also described how the disappointed DJ did not hold back his displeasure, added, “No. 2 won’t do for Khaled. He was not happy when the album didn’t debut at No. 1 . . . Not happy at all.”

An industry insider added: “He was furious. There was some nasty stuff said. Publicly, he’s all about ‘positivity,’ but there is a mean side to him that people don’t see . . . He overhyped the record and blew it up as his biggest album ever.”

YIKES! Khaled also posted and deleted a video where he seemingly berated Tyler The Creator’s number 1 album as “mysterious music.” This isn’t the Dj Khaled that folks are are used to online, who likes to preach positivity and folks are calling him out for his salty behavior.

Hit the flip to see how folks are responding to DJ Khaled being seemingly salty over being second best. They’re dragging him!

For The Freaks: Twitter Reacts To Allegedly Leaked Nude Photos Of Dave East

Someone must have a vendetta against rapper Dave East, because they’ve just leaked his ALLEGED nude photos. A dropbox filled with pictures of angles of a male’s bare penis is circulating the internet. In the file, screenshots of East’s face from a snap chat account are followed by photos of the erected phallus from the same account name.

We obviously can’t share the file here because that’s illegal! Whoever created the dropbox link is likely to be punished if charges are pressed against them. And unlucky for them, whether they are real or fake, the peen pictures are actually helping East gain fans.

Folks are REALLY enjoying the photos. Fans are lacing up their Timb boots, ready to walk to Dave East’s doorstep over them!

Hit the flip to see how Dave East’s alleged peen flicks are causing chaos (and JOKES!).

Malika Haqq is single—–and fine. The Kardashians’ buddy is announcing on Instagram that she’s split from her rapper bae O.T. Genasis after two years of dating.
The two made it official in October 2017 and then briefly broke up in February 2018. They reunited a month later and were seemingly stronger than ever.

According to Malika however, something’s awry and she’s single, again.

“Single,” she captioned a photo of herself baring her bangin’ baaaaaawdy in all white.

Malika may have deleted several pics of O.T. from her IG, the last pic of them on her social media is from January when they had a triple date with Jeannie Mai, Jeezy, Lori Harvey and Trey Songz.

We wonder what happened this time.

So far O.T.’s been mum on the crumbling of their California loving.

Knifed Up: Messy Mariah Carey Ex-Assistant Reveals Skinny Legend Has Booty Injections

Mariah Carey’s Ex-Assistant Puts Her Cosmetic Surgeries On Blast In Lawsuit

Mariah Carey supposedly went through several procedures to get slim-thick and charged it to an employee’s card — now the woman is putting her on blast.

MC is accused of using her ex-assistant Lianna Shakhnazaryan’s AMEX card to pay for and conceal at least 6 cosmetic surgeries, says Daily Mail. The receipts are signed by ” Stella Carey” and include a $10,000 in PLLA buttock filler injections, a $4,800 LipoFreeze fat-melting laser treatment to her upper breasts and an $8,900 firming ultrasound procedure to her neck and jawline. They were then mailed to Mariah’s home address.

Mariah is currently embroiled in a court battle with her former friend and employee over claims that Lianna Shakhnazaryan, 36, spent money on Carey’s personal credit card and secretly filmed her.

But employees and Shakhnazaryan tell a different story about Mariah’s spending habits. Allegedly she would use their cards and reimburse them later for hundreds of thousands in purchases.

‘Mariah never wanted people to know about her shopping or surgeries so she would put them on [former assistant] Lianna’s [Shakhnazaryan] card or [former manager] Stella’s [Bulochnikov] cards,’ an insider said.

‘She has an AMEX card of her own but her business management team only let her have one because of her spending – she always spent so much on it, it would get maxed out.’

‘All the staff, including her security guards and nannies, have to put stuff on their cards and get it reimbursed.

Mariah sued her former assistant earlier this year, alleging the woman tried to extort her with “intimate videos” for $8 Million. Shakhnazaryan filed a counter-suit in January alleging she endured battery and racial abuse from the singer.

Does it look like Mariah has had body work done to YOU?

Mariah has not yet responded to Shakhnazaryan’s claim. Previously, Carey was sued by her manager for wrongful termination.

Y’all TRIPPIN’! Walmart’s ‘InHome’ Service Will Allow Employees To Deliver Groceries INTO Your Home

Walmart

Source: Naheem Houston / Radio One, Inc

Walmart is all the way buggin’.

While People reports the multinational retail corporation has “stepped up their grocery game” with the announcement that their InHome delivery service will be available this fall, we say: no, thank you. If you have no clue what we’re talking about, Walmart will not only deliver to your home, with its forthcoming launch the company will now deliver INSIDE your home — with a “wearable camera.”

From USA Today:

Starting this fall, Walmart customers can not only buy groceries online, they can then have them dropped off right in their kitchen.

More than 1 million shoppers in Kansas City, Mo., Vero Beach, Fl, and Pittsburgh, Pa. will be able to use Walmart’s new “InHome” service, the latest volley in the delivery wars being waged by retailers racing to woo customers with convenience and speed.

Walmart employees will first pick the produce or other household items, ordered by a shopper online. They will then deliver food items into the customer’s refrigerator, using smart technology that enables the homeowner to let them in and watch what they do while they’re there.

Walmart President and CEO Doug McMillion reportedly said in a statement… 

“Once we learned how to do pickup well, we knew it would unlock the ability to deliver…But what if we not only cover the last mile to customers’ homes but even the last few steps? What if we put their groceries away inside their kitchens or garages?”

If you ask us, they might as well be offering to rob us blind. Again… we respond with a FIRM “thanks, but no thanks.”

Jackie Aina Covers ESSENCE

Godiva GAWDESS Jackie Aina can add a new title to her resume; ESSENCE cover star. Aina who’s already been named the NAACP’s YouTuber of the Year brought her brand to the pages of the women’s mage for their June digital issue. Inside the influencer who boasts over 3 million YouTube subscribers and 1.2 million Instagram followers is speaking on something she’s especially passionate about, inclusivity in the beauty world.

“I just feel like you can tell when something feels right and when something is not quite there just yet.” And one thing the outspoken beauty guru would never want to portray to her online community is inauthenticity. Because no matter her success working within the mainstream beauty market, Aina won’t be quieting down anytime soon—far from it. “If anything, I’m just going to keep being more vocal because I have a little more leeway now. I’m just going to keep strong-arming this conversation,” she says.”

Jackie also hinted that she’s got something “big” in this works—maybe her own beauty brand?

“I want to have merchandise. I just want to be in every lane,” she reveals. TV hosting is also an option, with red carpet reporting a dream of hers.”

Slaaaaaaay Jackie!

F.U.B.U: 10 Songs For The Culture That White People Shouldn’t Sing

,
Solange

Source: Saint Records

Most of the essential things that make Black culture what it is has been fully stripped away from us, or even worse — it’s been whitewashed and watered down from it’s true essence. It’s not a new theory that everything from food to slang to music starts with Black folks before it trickles it’s way into the seams of mainstream culture. And once that transition takes effect, the original artifact loses every ounce of it’s soul.

Whitewashing has been used in history in regards to media, censorship and the beauty industry to brainwash the masses into thinking that White is right. The term” describes a situation in which the skin tone of non-white people – when depicted in magazine covers, advertisements, commercials, music videos, etc. – is, digitally retouched or physically modified to appear whiter. Whitewashing can also present itself in the alteration of hair texture to resemble Eurocentric beauty ideals of straight hair”.

When it comes to music, we’ve seen Black folks and other people of color put their heart and soul into a piece of work, only to have someone White come slap their name on it and sell it as their own.

But some songs are simply just for us. So much so that even if a White person tries to sing them,it never sounds quite right. Hit the flip for 10 songs White people just shouldn’t sing.

But, they are who they are, so someone is always trying to chat them up.

Ho Sit Down: White Woman Who Called Michelle Obama “Ape In Heels” Sentenced To Prison For $18,000 Fraud

Becoming: An Intimate Conversation with Michelle Obama

Source: Paras Griffin / Getty

Woman Who Called Michelle Obama “Ape” Sentence To Prison

Some of us are old enough to remember a time when there were Black people living in the White House. Ironically, despite our love and affection for those Black people, a great number of Americans despised the then-residents of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave as much as we despise the current residents of said address. Go figure.

Anywho, one of the people who made their displeasure vocal was Pamela Taylor, the director of a West Virginia non-profit org called Clay County Development Corp. Here’s Pamela’s Facebook commentary on the esteemed First Lady:

It will be so refreshing to have a classy, beautiful, dignified First Lady back in the White House. I’m tired of seeing an Ape in heels.

Yes, Pamela capitalized “Ape”, something that even an ape would know not to do, but we digress.

According to The Independent, Pamela is now in prison for fraud after being fired from her gig at the non-profit. A judge sentenced her to 10 months in prison for embezzling $18,000 in disaster relief funds from her former job. Money that was to aid desperate families who had undergone hardship after natural disaster.

“There’s no such thing as a little bit of FEMA fraud,” said United States Attorney Mike Stuart, referring to the Federal Emergency Management Agency. “Taylor’s fraudulent scheme took FEMA dollars away from those who needed it the most… Federal disaster benefits are critical to rebuilding infrastructure, homes and lives – not for lining the pockets of individuals who suffered no loss

A mayo-based devil, we say.

In addition to the prison time, Pamela has been fined $10,000 and ordered to pay back the $18,149.04, ESPECIALLY the ¢4.

Adios, ho! *waves with glee*
