    As part of Mental Health Awareness Month, the Fifth Harmony alum releases a new song called ‘Temporary’ while the ‘Finally Famous’ MC teams up with his mother for a video series.

    May 2, 2021

    AceShowbiz –
    Former Fifth Harmony star Lauren Jauregui has dropped a new track focused on mental health issues in an effort to encourage teens and their caregivers to open up about anxiety and depression.

    Temporary has been released as part of The Ad Council’s ongoing Sound It Out campaign, which was created to promote music as a tool for troubled U.S. middle school kids.

    Lauren says she wrote the song after having a “deeply moving conversation” with a student named Anna.

    “I’m so grateful to Ad Council and the Sound It Out project for having me be a part of such a necessary conversation,” the singer explains. “I would say it’s the time we’re in but I feel as though my parents, my grandparents and great grandparents would’ve benefited greatly from these kind of conversations around mental health when they were kids.

    “The stigmas are only ever going to go away if we talk about it and I’m grateful to have been able to express how I feel and to have had such an open, honest conversation with Anna and her mom about our experiences. I hope others feel as warm listening to it as we felt making it.”

    Similar to Lauren Jauregui, rapper Big Sean is also raising awareness of mental health issues. He and his mother have partnered for a new wellbeing video series.

    The hitmaker and Myra Anderson will release a weekly episode offering tips on sleep patterns, meditation and diet on the rap star’s Sean Anderson Foundation site and IGTV channel every Saturday in May, as part of Mental Health Awareness Month.

    Announcing the news, Myra says, “Sean and I wanted to share some of the no or low-cost techniques that we have used over the years to help us attain and maintain emotional balance. In the future, we may do a deeper dive into some of these techniques and other tools that we use.”

    Sean adds, “I feel that Mental Health Awareness Month is the perfect time to talk with my mom about some of the things I have learned from her that have helped me along the way, and I hope will help others.”

    Sean’s foundation previously hosted a mental health awareness panel, as well as fundraisers to help COVID-19 response efforts.

      The visuals for the ‘Bounce Back’ rapper’s new song off ‘Detroit 2’ displays the on-again-off-again couple reenacts classic scenes from such movies as ‘Poetic Justice’ and ‘Waiting to Exhale’.

      Dec 17, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Big Sean and Jhene Aiko got nostalgic for the music video of “Body Language”. On Wednesday, December 16, the “Bounce Back” rapper released the visuals for his latest single, offering fans a ’90s film homage twist to his romance with his on-again-off-again girlfriend.
      Directed by child., the nearly 5-minute promo opened with the 32-year-old MC tackling on Larenz Tate’s character Darius Lovehall from 1997 film “Love Jones”. After he rapped his lines at what seemed to be an open mic night, the scene transitioned to him as a postal worker making his way to his love interest which served as a homage to “Poetic Justice”.
      Aiko entered the scene by playing Sean’s love interest, a salon employee originally played by Janet Jackson in the 1993 film. Throughout the promo, the “To Love & Die” singer could also be seen setting ablaze her ex’s car, mimicking what Angela Bassett did in “Waiting to Exhale”, and reenacting Nia Long’s iconic cab conversation from “Love Jones”.

      The steamy music video has also recreated a scene from another classic ’90s romance film “The Best Man”. Near the end, Sean got to relive what Taye Diggs’ character Harper experienced at his best friend Lance Sullivan’s bachelor party. Sean’s collaborator for the song, Ty Dolla $ign, popped into the scenes one in a while to tie up the love stories together.
      On the day of the music video release, Sean shared on Instagram a clip from the promo. Along with it, he wrote, “Know it’s a lot on ya mind, but I need ya focus now! Body Language music video out now @Jheneaiko n @tydollasign #Detroit2 Run this up, this one of them ones.” He also put out a number of stills with a caption that read, “Big homage paying to a few of my favorite flicks growin up.”

      “Body Language” came off Sean’s fifth studio album, “Detroit 2”, which debuted at the top of Rolling Stone Top 200 Albums chart. It was written by him along with Dolla $ign, Aiko and producer Key Wane. Its music video was Sean’s second release in one month following the dropping of “Wolves” video featuring Post Malone and his own mother.

      Big Sean Accused of Lying After He Claims 'IDFWU' Isn't a Naya Rivera Diss

      by

      WENN

      During an interview to promote his upcoming album, the hip-hop star denies dissing the late ‘Glee’ alum on the song as he claims that she knew about the song and liked it.
      Sep 2, 2020
      AceShowbiz – People on the Internet are currently mad at Big Sean. The rapper recently did an interview to promote his upcoming album “Detroit 2”, and at one point during the chat, he set the record straight on his infamous song “IDFWU” that many people believed was a diss towards Naya Rivera. Thus, when he denied he was dissing his ex, people were fuming.
      During the interview, Sean was asked whether he felt any “regret” in regards to the 2015 single. In response, he said, “That’s a tough question to answer because I’m still processing a lot of that. I don’t feel comfortable talking about it because I want to respect her. She’s made such an impact on people, and she’s done so many great things in her life and her career that it was hurtful to even have that [song] be associated with her.”
      Denying the record was a diss towards Naya, Sean continued, “I truly made the song and played it for her. She knew about it, and she liked it. We had a breakup that was very public, and we were young and we forgave each other and moved on from that. If I would have known something this tragic would have happened, I would have never made the song.”
      Soon after the interview was made public, people were accusing him of lying as they pointed out that Naya once revealed in her book that she begged him not to release the song. “bro, big sean bring this back today in a interview. He said lies and s**t about naya, the only wrong persons is him,” one person said. “So sick because he didn’t even have to say s**t. You just went out of your way to LIE. On someone thats dead and can’t defend or call you out for it. All sorts of disgusting. F**k big Sean for real,” another blasted him.
      “big sean is so obsessed with naya, he needs to lie and talk about her to get clout for his new album lol, stan naya rivera,” someone else commented, while one other wrote, “big sean why lie for the tabloids omg don’t you have a f**king girlfriend as we speak??!?!?! take her out to dinner go start a family take a yoga class with but don’t lie in naya’s face..”

      Big Sean Reveals He and Jhene Aiko Had Miscarriage on 'Deep Reverence'

      by

      WENN

      Without mentioning the songstress’ name, the ‘Play No Games’ rapper rhymes at one point during the song, ‘Probably why the s**t with me get crazy and we lost a baby.’
      Aug 25, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Big Sean has opened up about his private life via his new song “Deep Reverence”. Released on Monday, August 24, the Nipsey Hussle-featured single finds the hip-hop star revealing that he and Jhene Aiko were expecting a child together, though unfortunately, the singer suffered a miscarriage later on.
      He raps at one point during the song, “Probably why the s**t with me get crazy and we lost a baby.” Even though Sean doesn’t name names in the bar, it’s pretty clear that he is referring to Jhene and other social media users apparently think the same. “Nooo Jhene and Big Sean were expecting but she lost the baby omg :(” one person said after listening to the song.
      “All of y’all was dogging jhene out calling her toxic and evil then saying she was ruining her relationship with big sean only for him to reveal in his new song that they lost a baby,” another said. “Oh my god Jhene Aiko and Big Sean lost a baby…my heart hurts for them,” one other commented.
      Besides his relationship with Jhene, Sean also opens up about his reaction after hearing news of Nipsey’s passing. Name-dropping Kendrick Lamar, he spits his bars, “After what happened to Nipsey I reached out to Kendrick/ There wasn’t even no real issues there to begin with/ Lack of communication and wrong information from people fueled by the ego it’s like mixing flames with diesel.”

      “Deep Reverence” will be included on Sean’s upcoming album “Detroit 2”, which is a sequel to his 2012 effort. Hours prior to the release of the song, the “I Don’t F**k With You” rapper announced that “Detroit 2” would hit the stores on September 4. He additionally unveiled a line of “Detroit 2”-themed merchandise on his online store, including a branded face mask.

      Fans Defend Big Sean After He's Blasted Over Naya Rivera Diss Track 'IDFWU'

      by

      WENN

      One of the people who defend the rapper says, ‘Disgusted that people actually coming at this man for a song he made 6-7 years ago instead of mourning her.’
      Jul 15, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Big Sean has been receiving a lot of criticism ever since it’s been confirmed that Naya Rivera passed away in a drowning accident. Many people are attacking the rapper over his infamous diss track against the late actress, “IDFWU”, that he released back in 2015, with some urging him to delete the song from all streaming platforms.
      For instance, one person said, “I really hope you feel like the awful person you are for making that horrid song about her.” Meanwhile, another told him to “retire the song I don’t f**k you.” There was also an individual who wrote, “I know now ull think twice before writing someone hurtful songs.”
      Even though Big Sean has not addressed anything, not a few have come to his defense and pointed out that Naya’s death has nothing to do with Big Sean and that he’s probably just as sad as the others. “Disgusted that people actually coming at this man for a song he made 6-7 years ago instead of mourning her,” one person urged others to mourn Naya’s death instead of attacking Sean.
      “ik damn well yall were singin that song when it came out & naya was singin it too so pls be kind to sean during these times theres no reason to send hate,” another said, referring to the time when the “Glee” alum performed the song on “Lip Sync Battle”. An individual responded to the criticism, “Y’all mad miserable talking about that song…y’all acting like y’all never said anything bad to your ex’s.”
      Naya passed away after she went missing in Lake Peru, where she and her son Josey rented a pontoon boat. Her body was found after five days of searching.
      Her family recently issued a statement regarding her death, thanking those who offered their prayers and support while they were searching for her body. “While we grieve the loss of our beautiful legend, we are blessed to honor her everlasting legacy and magnetic spirit. Naya was an amazing talent, but was an even greater person, mother, daughter and sister,” so the statement read. “Thank you to the men and women of the Ventura, Tulare, and San Luis Obispo County Sheriff’s Departments for your commitment and unwavering effort to find Naya. We extend endless gratitude and ovation to the heroine who found her. Thank you to her friends, colleagues, and fans for your continuous support.”
      To conclude the lengthy statement, her family requested that “our privacy be respected during this very difficult time.”
