Rapper GILLES Releases New Single

GILLES is back with new music and this time he’s joined by OG Maco and King Los over an unique track produced by Tha Radio.

About the song: “It’s flexing like sh*t. But it’s different ’cause it’s like, my brand of flexing.” – GILLES

What do you think about the song?

You can also get it on iTunes

About the Artist:

This is GILLES.

From his tailored denim all the way down to the carefully-curated
accessories, it is apparent that everything about him is deliberate.
Proving through his eloquence and charm that he is both a scholar
and a gentleman, Gilles aims to be, above all, an inspiration. He
weaves his Caribbean-American, ATL upbringing, extended tours of
the halls of higher education, and affinity for tall women and thrift
stores all atop a passion for lyricism and word play. You see, what
makes his story so interesting is precisely the fact that like so many
of us, he is not just one thing. He is the sensitive stoic. He is the
womanizer looking for love. He is the dreamer who “stays woke.”
The music is merely an audio collection of those life experiences
perfectly placed in rhythm over an 808-laden landscape.

A$AP Rocky Breaks Up Fight Between Ian Connor And Theophilus London

An all-out brawl broke out between Kanye West-affiliated stylist Ian Connor and rapper/singer Theophilus London at a signing event in London — and A$AP Rocky had to pull the two apart. Ian, who was recently accused of rape and knowingly transmitting STI’s, also turned his frustration toward Rocky’s friend A$AP Bari once they were pushed out of the store the signing took place in.

Apparently the Ian and Theophilus had some beef with each other prior to the appearance. Even though he originally stood behind Ian in the sexual assault allegations that hit early last April, Theophilus called Ian a “dirty rapist” on Twitter just hours before they all arrived to the store for the Paris Fashion Week signing event.

Eventually, a visibly frustrated Ian just said “eff it” and attacked Theophilus first:

Before descending on Bari outside the store:

(skip to the last third of the video for the outside fight)

Of course after that the beef continues, with Theophilus pointing out that Kanye doesn’t even want to deal with the ‘rapist’ anymore, and he’s definitely going to catch another fade in the future.

And Bari shares the same sentiment:

A$AP is staying pretty quiet on this one so far, but it’s getting progressively uglier on Twitter. Kanye might want to come call an intervention with all his young mentees settle down this commotion…

Texas Woman Blames Spike Chic-Fil-A Drink For Fatal Crash And Crime Spree

This sound like some s#!t that was supposed to happen in Florida, not Georgia…

Via NYDailyNews

A Texas woman who went on a fatal crime spree in the Atlanta area is using the defense that a spiked Chick-Fil-A drink made her snap.

Kristie Nesby, 43, is charged with murder and a slew of other crimes after she carjacked multiple vehicles and fatally struck 71-year-old pedestrian Luci Turner in a bizarre May rampage.

Nesby appeared in court this week and told a judge as she was led out of the courtroom that a spiked fast food beverage accounted for her actions.

“I went to Chick-Fil-A, I told someone, someone put something in my drink,” she said to the judge while court officers escorted her out of her hearing, according to an NBC affiliate.

So what exactly did this lady do? Welp…

The day of mayhem started on May 11 outside of Atlanta when Nesby robbed a dry cleaning business. When she fled the scene, Nesby careened her car off the roadway onto the sidewalk where she struck the elderly pedestrian who was on her way to work.

Turner later died of her injuries.

Nesby then carjacked a woman at gunpoint but quickly abandoned that car, CBS reported. The crazed woman then stole another car that she crashed into a fence and fled on foot.

The strange spree ended when police apprehended her at an Atlanta Publix grocery store location.

BIHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Put on that orange jumpsuit and sit yo azz down somewhere!

Taylor Swift Photos Raise Plastic Surgery Suspicion

Has Taylor Swift taken a trip to the surgeon to go from ironing board to IG model? The pop star is known for her tall and lanky figure, but not exactly for being the most shapely star.

But Taylor’s recent date night to bestie Selena Gomez’ concert has people scratching their heads about the 26-year-old singer’s recent body glo-up. Taylor stopped for a photo op with Romeo Miller and Selena backstage toting what looked like a LOT of extra baggage in the back.

While we’re all pretty used to Taylor looking like this…

Suddenly she’s holding like this:

And while that could be just some angle magic… photos of her leaving the venue with her new boo showed off some seemingly new equipment up top as well:

HMMMM. It’s definitely looking like Taylor might have tiptoed to Dr. Miami’s office for an upgrade. What do you think? Is this some surgical sorcery or is she just poking it out and padding ’em up?

Honestly, even if it is surgery, it’s not like little miss innocent would ever admit such a thing…

Tyra Banks Talks “Model Wars”

Tyra Banks is not here for the shade-fest between older models who got in the business through agencies and random discovery, and the new girls who got where they are through Instagram, reality TV, and nepotism.

Tyra says that times have changed and so has the modeling game — so rather than older models trashing the new crew or young girls rolling their eyes at those who laid the groundwork for their careers. Via Tyra’s BeautyBank site:

I LIVE IN THE MIDDLE OF A CERTAIN WAR THAT IS RAGING RIGHT NOW. A MODEL WAR.

Why do I feel in the middle? I’m a model that started my career in high fashion, that transitioned to the girl-next-door sexy Supermodel, and then created a modeling reality show that catapulted my career and personal brand further than I could have ever imagined. I’m not 100% couture, nor am I 100% TV star. So, yes, I exist in the middle. A sort of hybrid. There’s a level of poetic first-hand experience and understanding that I have and want to share about this escalating battle between Supermodels of the past and present…

Yesterday’s “Trinity” is today’s #Squad. And what we all must remember is that we are stronger together than apart. I hope we can start to act like it. I’ve had enough pain from my modeling years in the past and seeing my sisters in conflict today brings back those gut-wrenching memories. So, let’s band together and unite. Please end the fight.

#SupermodelSquad

And we must open our arms even wider. The modeling industry is no longer an exclusive, unattainable club that few can access. Anyone can be a model! If you have social media accounts, you can pose and post away, build your followers and make cold hard money all while having lots of fun. The modeling world is now a democracy and we need to celebrate it, lean into it.

#IGModelForce

The universe constantly changes and evolves, and will continue to do so until the end of time. It’s inevitable. And it’s beautiful.

Just like all of you reading this right now.

Eye See Your Beauty.

Do you?

Well, this was certainly something weighing heavily on Tyra’s heart…but does the average person actually even care how a model got her job getting paid to party and be cute?

Homeless Teen Graduates Early With Full Scholarship

While a lot of ADULTS would be held back by a devastatingly unfortunate circumstance like homelessness, one DC teenager let it serve as the fuel to push her into academic success — all while holding down a 25-hour per week job and participating in extracurricular activities. Via MailOnline:

A homeless Washington teenager managed to graduate high school two years early despite working 25 hours a week winning herself a full scholarship to college.

Destyni Tyree was living in the DC Central homeless shelter in Washington DC along with 243 other families when the then 14-year-old’s enrolled into Roosevelt S.T.A.Y. High School.

She had been forced out of previous schools when her mother lost her job and had to hand over the keys of the family home because they were no longer able to afford the rent.

Within two years, Destyni was able to dramatically turn around her life by applying herself in school.
She was appointed captain of the school’s cheerleading squad, earned a 4.0 grade point average, and was voted prom queen.

She also secured a full scholarship to Potomac State College of West University University that begins in August.
The student managed this despite working for 25 hours a week in an ice cream store.

“Quite frankly, I’m just ready to go and live life. I know there’s a better life out there for me. It gets better. If you work hard enough, if you have that drive, if you have that motivation, it gets a lot better. I just time managed. I just wake up and do what I gotta do.”

NICE! Congrats to this young girl. We know if she can find success through circumstances like the one she pressed through, there isn’t much she can’t conquer.

Study Shows That Affirmative Action Is More Beneficial To White Women

The Supreme Court of the United States once again ruled affirmative action in college admissions should continue as they always have, striking a second blow to former mediocre University of Texas student, Abigail Fisher.

According to HuffPo, white women have benefited the most from affirmative action:

Affirmative action, when it was introduced by President John F. Kennedy in 1961, originally required entities that receive federal funding to take tangible steps “to ensure that applicants are employed, and that employees are treated during employment, without regard to their race, creed, color, or national origin.” In 1967, Lyndon Johnson added sex to that list.

And yet, just as most people think of Title IX as being about athletics funding (there’s a lot more to it than that), the general perception of affirmative action is that it’s “just” about race.

But affirmative action has been quite beneficial to women, and disproportionately beneficial to white women. Women are now more likely to graduate with bachelor’s degrees and attend graduate school than men are and outnumber men on many college campuses. In 1970, just 7.6 percent of physicians in America were women; in 2002, that number had risen to 25.2 percent. But — and this is a big but — those benefits are more likely to accrue to white women than they are to women of color, and that imbalance has very real effects on employment and earnings later in life. In other words: affirmative action works, and it works way better for white women than it does for all the other women in America.

And those women are far from alone in believing that a system that’s designed to help them and has helped lots of women like them has actually robbed them of something that’s rightfully theirs — and should be dismantled as a consequence. In fact, they’re more likely than white men in their age group to object.

50 Cent Arrested Over Using Profanity

50 Cent has gotten locked up in the Caribbean for doing something on stage that he does each and every show. The rapper was making an appearance at a St. Kitts music festival…but the MF-bomb he dropped got him popped by police the moment he left the stage…

Via TMZ:

50 Cent was arrested in St. Kitts in the Caribbean Saturday night … for using a word that’s apparently illegal there … ‘motherf*****.”

Sources tell TMZ, 50 had been warned not to use profanity during his performance in front of 40,000 people. We’re told the DJ didn’t have a clean version of his set, and 50 didn’t pull the mic away from his mouth when he roared, “motherf*****” … and that was enough to get him arrested.

Cops showed up after the performance and took 50 to the station, where he was booked for using profanity in public. It’s a minor offense, but he has to stick around until Monday when he’ll go to court and pay a fine.

The same thing happened to DMX in 2003.

SMH! Well, rules are rules. If you know what the consequences are of your actions and you still do them…welp.

Women Are Vying For Ari Nagel’s Sperm

Remember when we told you about “The King Of Sperm” or “The Sperminator” whose sired 22 children by donating sperm in public restrooms or by sleeping with lesbians hoping to conceive?

Well Ari Nagel now says his Facebook Inbox has been flooded with requests for sperm ever since his story made national news.

The New York Post reports:

“Nagel, who says he’s never denied a request, is weeding through the ladies. He has a standard reply at the ready: “I cut and paste ‘I’ll do my best. I’ll help you any way I can.’ ”

The broody women The Post spoke to — who range from single to divorced to being in a committed relationship, and include lesbians and heterosexuals — have a variety of reasons for desperately seeking the sperminator.

“He’s definitely a blessing because he’s doing the work for free,” says Sheila Killian, a 47-year-old custodial worker from Charlotte, NC, whose graphic designer wife, Sukeema, 40, hopes to get pregnant by Nagel. “We work paycheck to paycheck — we don’t have money for a sperm bank.”

Several women are now coming forward with their requests for Nagel’s man-milk. Did we mention that ALL of them are black?

Blandine Rodney, a 43-year-old Brooklyn nurse who wants a child with the college math professor, agrees. “He’s handsome, he’s a genius. I’d be proud to have my child say Ari is his father.”

The divorcée, like all of the other women The Post spoke to, is black (Several of Nagel’s 22 children have black mothers). “Someone said [to me] he’s trying to whitewash the black community,” says Rodney. “It’s not whitewashing! More white men should give sperm to women who need it.”

What do YOU think about all these women vying for The Sperminator’s seed???

Even lil Bow Wow throwing it up…

Bow Wow opened up to VladTV about his engagement to Erica Mena, which started after they began hosting 106 & Park together, but he pointed out that they’ve known each other since she auditioned for “Lottery Ticket.”

When speaking about their engagement, Bow Wow admitted that he wasn’t aware that Erica was going to make it public at the BET Awards, which came as a huge surprise to him. After making the announcement, comedian Tony Rock joked about the situation, calling Erica a “full blown whore,” which Bow Wow didn’t see the funny side of. He explained that he had never met Tony, and after he tweeted the joke, Bow Wow said he and his crew were going to “f*** up” the comedian at his All Def Digital show, but it never went down.
