    Aug 25, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Mulatto has become the latest celebrity to hold a concert during this pandemic era, but it looks like she doesn’t think she did anything wrong by that. Instead, she defended herself when one person called her out for it and even went as far as calling the female rapper a “D-List” celebrity.
    It all started after someone assumed that celebrities must need a “stimulus check” if they kept making paid club appearances during a pandemic. In response to this person, another individual wrote, “I think they’re struggling cause concerts and appearances is how the D list celebrities make money. Just saw Mulatto and Money Bag at a whole concert… During a pandemic smh.”
    Mulatto caught wind of the comment and was quick to hit back, “Yeah h** ask what it took to get me out of the house too! I’m 21 & I take care of my whole family we sending money to 5 different states f**k yeah I’m still collecting mines.” She added in a separate tweet, “Y’all must gone pay me & mines bills??? Lol f**k off for real. I promise I’m not the celebrity to get bullied out of my statement b***h I said what I said. Sorry but I gotta eat & feed others too.”

    Being told that the person simply wanted to express her concerns over the shows, Mulatto replied, “Nah it’s def hating when u throwing in lil shady a** remarks like ‘d list celebrity’ when tryna make a point. Can’t no h** feeling herself off a couple of viral tweets call me d list how the F**k that work.”
    Their argument continued, with the person stressing that Mulatto is a “D-List celebrity” and that she needed to accept it. “We focused on a global pandemic miss Mulatto. Next topic,” so the individual said, to which the hip-hop star answered, “B***h u on the phone apologizing talm how bout u a fan but on Twitter thugging… NEXT can’t wait to bump into you h** on YO mama I can’t.”

    The person has yet to respond back.

    BTS Confirms 2020 New Album

    Apple Music

    In the wake of the release of their new single ‘Dynamite’, the Bangtan Boys assure their loyal fans that their next studio installment is coming out this year.
    Aug 23, 2020
    AceShowbiz – BTS have delighted fans by confirming that their new album will be released this year.
    Despite the coronavirus pandemic causing plans to be put on hold for hordes of musicians around the world, the K-pop group are still planning to drop their highly-anticipated new record in 2020.
    In an interview with Zane Lowe on New Music Daily on Apple Music, they said, “We’re really in the middle of the process, getting tracks, writing lyrics and recording some raps and vocals. So, you know, it’s going to be… One thing that is sure is that we go to release in this year, so it’s not going to be so late.”
    “You won’t be disappointed. Yep, coming out of this year. We’re doing our best as always so we can bring better results. We participated more this time around. A lot of our members participated in the production process so you can really look forward to it.”

    Ahead of their as-yet-untitled record hitting shelves, the group have dropped their new single “Dynamite” – their first track which they sing completely in English – and an accompanying video.
    One thing that the Covid-19 crisis did affect was BTS’ tour dates, which they had to cancel because of the pandemic.
    And it wasn’t an easy decision for the group as they explained. “Of course it was heartbreaking, since we usually only get to meet our overseas fans through tours,” they said about the cancelled dates. “But we try to keep things positive, and try to be thankful that we got more time to prepare our album and return with Dynamite.”
    “We’re trying to look at everything in a more positive light. We’re working on our music and that is one of our ways of healing. The process also comes as an inspiration for us, and we’re trying our best to bring better results by adjusting to these times. We also have more time for our hobbies. And again, we’re trying not to stay depressed and bring more energy to our daily lives.”
