  • Rick Ross Urges Jada Pinkett-Smith To Let Tupac Shakur Rest In Peace

    Rick Ross Urges Jada Pinkett-Smith To Let Tupac Shakur Rest In Peace

    Rapper Rick Ross is clearly tired of Jada Pinkett-Smith revealing shocking things about the late Tupac Shakur.

    During a recent interview on BET Talks, the Miami native urges the actress to let Tupac rest. Since the release of her book Worthy, the actress has revealed that Tupac also had alopecia, which caused him to shave his head bald. It’s the same hair-loss condition that Jada also suffers from.

    “What Jada doing won’t affect the decision of me ever getting married, but what I’m saying is damn baby, you got to be a better and a greater example than that,”  the 47-year-old said. He then urged her to stop telling the world Pac’s business. “Come on, Jada, let Tupac rest in peace.”

    He also said, “We ain’t need to know that; dawg a legend. He [has] been dead for 30 years,” as he mispronounced the condition by calling it “apple esha.”

    Ross went on to say that Jada should be telling the stories about her and her husband, Will Smith, instead of telling Tupac’s stories.

    Do you agree with Rick Ross?

  • Megan Thee Stallion Honors Scholarship Fund Recipients At Her Alma Mater

    Megan Thee Stallion Honors Scholarship Fund Recipients At Her Alma Mater

    One thing about Megan Thee Stallion is that she doesn’t play when it comes to her education and she is making sure that the students at her alma mater Texas Southern University don’t either.

    The H-Town Hottie recently surprised the recipients of her Flamin’ Hot Scholarship fund during the university’s weekly Hump Day pep rally, BET reports. In September, the “Cobra” rapper launched Flamin’ Hot University, an initiative that “aims to celebrate the achievements of the students who’ve been granted scholarships from the fund.”

    Megan held an on-stage discussion with TSU’s Tracy Clemons and she was accompanied by the Ocean of Soul band. See the post here.

    The Flamin’ Hot Scholarship provides funding for graduating seniors at Texas Southern University. It is intended to help those students begin their post graduate journeys. The scholarship has awarded more than 20 graduating seniors with over $150,000.

    We love a Hottie that gives back! Salute to you Megan Thee Stallion.

  • Black Music Month: Happy Birthday To The Legendary Prince

    Black Music Month: Happy Birthday To The Legendary Prince

    My apologies for missing a day of writing this series but life was getting a little bit too real, however, I am back today, and as you may or may not know it is the birthday of the one and only Prince Rogers Nelson.

    Throughout the course of his life, Prince has given fans a long list of hits such as, “Purple Rain,” “When Doves Cry,” “Kiss,” “Musicology,” and so much more. I was easily intrigued by the “Purple One” because of his energy while performing.

    I also loved how unapologetic he was. If he had an issue with something or someone he will make it known and stand in his truth, hence the name change to “The artist formerly known as Prince” when he was having issues with his record label.

    To honor him on what would’ve been his 64th, below are some of my favorite songs by him.

    May he continue to rest in eternal peace.
