Chrisean Rock has often honored her on-again, off-again relationship with Blueface with tattoos of his face, and now she’s gotten some fresh ink.

In a video that went viral on Sunday (January 28), the former athlete can be seen turning her face to show the outline of a new tattoo of the “Thotiana” rapper’s face on her cheek, then laying down to sit for the session.

In the next frame, Chrisean Rock shows off her completed tattoo, which may be the largest one she’s ever gotten of the likeness of her incarcerated baby daddy. CHRISEAN ROCK RAISES EYEBROWS AFTER MOVING BACK IN WITH BLUEFACE AMID RAPPER’S JAIL STINT


Nicki Minaj Vs Megan Thee Stallion

Megan Thee Stallion‘s new song “Hiss” has riled up both fans and rappers like Nicki Minaj in the hours since its release on Friday (January 26), so Megan has broken it down.

Tina Snow called in to The Breakfast Club on Friday morning to explain who her venomous new track was aimed at.

“It’s for these bitches and hoes, bitches and hoes alike, men or women,” she said. “Every time one of these motherfuckers uses Megan Thee Stallion name, they get 24 hours of attention.

“Basically, I understand what y’all doing, and I want y’all to get up off me. Use something else. Do something different. Use another tactic. This one getting old.”

Breakfast Club co-host Charlamagne Tha God, who hadn’t yet heard the track at the time of the interview, asked Megan: “Are you saying any names?”

“I’m saying, a hit dog gon’ holler. That’s it. Whoever feel it, feel it,” she replied.

Nicki Minaj‘s angry tirade against Megan Thee Stallion has entered into its second day, but the head Barb continues to deny that “Big Foot” is a diss track about the Houston Hottie.

In an ongoing slam of the rapper thanks to “Hiss,” which included an apparent reference to Minaj’s convicted sex offender husband Kenneth Petty, Minaj took to Twitter on Sunday (January 28) to refute claims that she’d recorded “Big Foot” as a diss track.

“Who tf said “diss track”?????? don’t play tonight. Fix your tweet,” she wrote in a quote tweet to Pop Base.

Minaj then appeared to threaten Megan Thee Stallion with violence 8 minutes later. “After the 1st one drop, if dat pussy ass hoe so much as BREATHE wrong ima empty da clip. If that pussy ass hoe deny 1THING I say, I’m posting every fkn receipt known to man. 5. Yes you heard me! Did 5 extra songs. we’ve been waiting on u HO. Play #PinkFriday2 NON STOP barbz. LuvU,” she wrote.

Pimp C‘s widow Chinara Butler is none too pleased about her late husband’s name being brought into Nicki Minaj‘s beef with Megan Thee Stallion.


SNOOP DOGG SAYS HE HAS AN UNRELEASED SONG WITH MICHAEL JACKSON

Snoop Dogg has revealed that he recorded an unreleased track featuring none other than Michael Jackson.

In an appearance on the Sirius XM show Radio Andy with Andy Cohen, the West Coast MC was asked if he and Jackson’s careers ever overlapped.

“Me and Michael was family. His family, my family love each other,” he responded. “We have a record that never came out together,” he added, skimming over the details.

“Only issue me and Mike had was, we was at … Ed Hardy — Christian Audigier, he had an event in [Las] Vegas. He had Michael Jackson perform, Snoop Dogg perform.

“But where he messed up, he put Michael Jackson dressing room right next to Snoop Dogg’s. So Snoop Dogg was doing this,” he continued, taking a hit of his blunt.

“They like, ‘You know Michael Jackson dressing room next door.’ Like, ‘No it ain’t.’ They like, ‘Yeah it is.’ I’m like, ‘Hold on.’” Snoop then took another drag from his blunt and recalled how he opened the door, exhuming a cloud of smoke. “[Michael was] right there looking at me. He said, ‘Snoop, don’t do that.'”

Circling back to the bombshell record reveal, host Andy Cohen inquired about the whereabouts of the unreleased track. “I gotta find out [who has the masters]. It’s a record that we done for — you know he made records for the world — a peaceful, whole lot of artists on it record. He called me one night and it was crazy because of the way his voice came through the phone.

The Doggfather lapsed into a pretty good MJ impression: “He was like ‘Snoop it’s Mike. I have this song I want you to get on.'”

“I’m like, man, whatever you want. It ain’t no problem. Talk to me. After we got past the song he was like ‘My mom always said that you look like someone in my family. I think we’re related,'” Snoop added, laughing.

The “Drop It Like It’s Hot” rhymer went on to say he would make an effort to track down the song. “I kinda want to hear it.”

Snoop Dogg has revealed that he and 50 Cent have periodically given financial help to Hip Hop forefathers in need.

During a recent appearance on the All the Smoke podcast, the legendary West Coast rapper chimed in with his thoughts about Rakim and Scarface being rewarded with grant money amid Hip Hop 50 celebrations last year.

“You’ve got to take care of your own, you’ve got to set an example,” he said at the 7:20 mark of the episode. “We do it privately. I’ve done it many years with some of the artists that needed help, that needed physical and financial help.

“It’s not a public thing for me. I’m not going to say, ‘I helped him.’ But when they did that publicly, that’s what it’s supposed to be.”

Speaking to the “young generation,” he added: “Respect your elders because you making all this money — not that you have to — but if you love this rapper and respect this rapper, you see he’s down on his luck, he may need some money but he has pride. He can’t even ask you ’cause he used to be you.

“But you have enough man in you to say, ‘Unc, I’ma throw you something.’ There’s been many times where me and 50 Cent together have called some of our O.G.’s and put bags on him. And O.G. like, ‘Oh man, nah.’ We ain’t trying to hear that shit. We know you need it. Here, n-gga.”



NBA YOUNGBOY SET TO RECEIVE MAJOR CASH INFUSION FROM FLOYD MAYWEATHER

NBA YoungBoy is currently going through a rough patch as he remains under house arrest while he waits for his federal gun trial to commence this summer, and Floyd Mayweather has now offered him a helping hand.

On Saturday (January 27), the boxer shared a video to his Instagram in which he can be seen sitting inside his Rolls Royce next to two briefcases filled with cash. After bragging about his wealth and possessions, he explained the purpose of all the money he sat next to.

“And the bag — it’s crazy,” he said. “NBA YoungBoy, see all this? It’s on its way to you. Let’s go.”

NBA YoungBoy has a baby boy with the athlete’s daughter, Yaya Mayweather. In 2022, the undefeated fighter even praised the rapper while talking about wanting the best for him.

“I’m proud of NBA YoungBoy — a very, very talented young kid,” he said on The Pivot Podcast. “One of the biggest artists as far as in music. He’s got a cult-like following. I look at him just like one of my sons. I only want the best for him.”



TREY SONGZ $10M SEXUAL ASSAULT LAWSUIT DISMISSED DUE TO ALLEGED VICTIM’S NON-RESPONSE

Trey Songz is no longer potentially on the hook for $10 million, as a sexual assault lawsuit against him has been dismissed due to a failure on the part of the alleged victim.

TMZ has obtained a copy of the judge’s order to dismiss, which was filed on Friday (January 26).

The filing happened because the defendant — listed as “Jane Doe” in the documents — failed to reply to the “Bottoms Up” singer’s motion to dismiss on time. It’s unclear whether the alleged victim will be able to file her lawsuit again, or whether it has been dismissed with prejudice.

The suit was filed in June of last year, with a Jane Doe alleging Trey Songz exposed her breasts at a pool party at a Connecticut casino in 2013.

In documents obtained by Radar Online back in September, Songz and his legal team argued that the case was way past the statute of limitations of three years.


6IX9INE RELEASED ON BOND AFTER DOMESTIC VIOLENCE ARREST IN DOMINICAN REPUBLIC

6ix9ine has been released on bond following his arrest for allegedly assaulting his girlfriend Yailín la Más Viral in the Dominican Republic.

According to the Daily Mail, the polarizing rapper was released from custody on Thursday (January 25) after making a bond that, in dollars, comes out to around $507. The judge overseeing the case reportedly found that the evidence brought forward by prosecutors was not enough to keep him, because Yailín is not cooperating.

The claims of violence were brought by her mother, Wanda Diaz, but Yailín denies anything took place. Diaz did not attend the proceedings to share her side, however, because she was allegedly ill from a cosmetic surgery complication.

As it stands, 6ix9ine is currently barred from leaving the country without permission from a judge and must make a court appearance every two months..


50Cent is Getting Sued

50 Cent has been sued after he threw a microphone into a crowd that hit a woman in the face.

50 had earlier avoided criminal charges over the incident, but the victim, Power 106 host Bryhana Monegain, has claimed she was permanently injured after being hit with the microphone during a gig at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles last August.

In court documents obtained by TMZ, Monegain claims that once 50 realized his microphone wasn’t working correctly, he threw it into the crowd and hit her in the face and wrist, leading to severe and permanent injuries.

Monegain claims she suffered a concussion and an open cut on her forehead, as well as bruises.

While Monegain is back on air at the L.A. radio station, she claims to continue to suffer from emotional distress and is suing for lost income, medical expenses and damages.

50 previously denied intending to injure anybody and was previously cleared of any potential criminal charges when Los Angeles’ attorney’s office ruled there was no case to answer.
