    Travis Scott Honors Pop Smoke With Snippet of Unreleased Collaboration

    Instagram

    The new snippet follows the ‘Highest in the Room’ rapper and the late hip-hop star’s collaboration ‘Gatti’ that peaked at No. 69 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart.
    Feb 20, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Travis Scott (II) has his own way in paying tribute to Pop Smoke. Hours after his “Gatti” collaborator was gunned down in what appears to be a home invasion robbery, the “Highest in the Room” hitmaker honored the slain rapper by sharing a snippet of their unreleased song.
    Taking to Instagram Story on the same day of Smoke’s tragic passing, Scott uploaded a video of him driving while the track, which reportedly supposed to be his second collaboration with the slain rapper, played in the background. Near the 15-second clip, the word “Dior” could be heard being repeated, which might refer to a bonus track in Smoke’s 2019 album “Meet the Woo Vol. 1”.

    Scott joined forces with Smoke in 2019 for “Gatti” which is featured on the “Sicko Mode” rapper’s project with his Cactus Jack labelmates Sheck Wes and Don Toliver titled “JACKBOYS”. The track was co-written by Smoke, and peaked at No. 69 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart, making it the slain MC’s first entry on the chart.

    Smoke was shot and killed on Wednesday, February 19, morning. The 20-year-old rapper, whose real name is Bashar Barakah Jackson, was at his home in the Hollywood Hills, California when two intruders broke into the property wearing masks and hoodies. They reportedly fired multiple shots before fleeing on foot.
    It is still unclear whether the “Welcome to the Party” spitter knew the shooters, but he was pronounced dead at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in West Hollywood. The suspects remain free and have not been identified yet, although police have arrested and released one man.
    Since news of Smoke’s tragic passing broke out, other hip hop artists have taken to social media to mourn the loss. Nicki Minaj shared a photo of the young rapper with a caption that read, “The Bible tells us that jealousy is as cruel as the grave. Unbelievable. Rest In Peace, Pop.” 50 Cent, in the meantime, wrote in his tribute, “R.I.P to my man Pop Smoke, No sympathy for winners. God bless him.”
    Snoop Dogg put out a clip of their performance together. “Young tycoon gone2soon had a blast wit ya,” he wrote alongside the video. “c u when I get there.” Chance the Rapper, on the other hand, tweeted, “Rest Up Pop Smoke, you were too young. God Bless and comfort your family. What a crazy trajectory you were on man smh.”

    Model Broderick Hunter Calls Iggy Azalea 'Black Queen of Rap' and Internet Is Confused

    Instagram

    Taking to his Twitter account, the 29-year-old model says, ‘Just wanna let y’all know Iggy Azalea was the black Queen of rap we deserved but y’all let her slip through the cracks.’
    Feb 20, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Broderick Hunter made some confusing comments on Wednesday, February 19. The model successfully got a lot of his Twitter followers baffled when he took to the bird site to heap praises for Iggy Azalea and even call her the “black queen of rap.”
    Alongside a GIF of a black man getting into a car while laughing, Broderick wrote, “Before I hit these meetings, just wanna let y’all know Iggy Azalea was the black Queen of rap we deserved but y’all let her slip through the cracks. We’ll save that for a later conversation.”

    Broderick Hunter praised Iggy Azalea.
    Though there’s a chance that he might be trolling, people were still sent to confusion the moment they read his post. “Broderick, you okay, baby? Everything alright at home?” someone asked, while another commented, “Ew. After all these years of lusting after you I’m finally disappointed.” One other refused to believe Broderick made the comment himself as saying, “I really hope someone hacked your Twitter because this ain’t it baby.”
    “It’s too early for this man… Save this when west coast twitter is up too… we need all the help with this one,” a different person wrote. “None of this tweet makes sense to me. Am I not getting the sarcasm???” another seemed confused, as someone else reminded him, “It’s Black history month. Have some respect on our name.”
    There were also people who thought that he might be mistaking Azealia Banks for Iggy. “I think you meant to say Azealia Banks sweetheart,” one person said. “Did u mean azealia banks? Cuz none of this added up. Not even the gif,” someone told him, while another echoed, “This is Iggy I think you meant Azealia Banks which she’s talented but won’t get out of her own way so she’s problematic.”

    Kehlani Lashes Out at Joe Budden for Criticizing Her Over New Breakup Song

    Instagram

    The ‘Valentine’s Day (Shameful)’ singer calls the rapper-turned-podcaster ‘a joke’ and his comments ‘disgusting’ following his criticisms on the track that alluded to her relationship with YG.
    Feb 20, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Kehlani was furious at Joe Budden. She clapped back at the rapper-turned-podcaster for criticizing her after listening to her new track “Valentine’s Day (Shameful)” which reportedly addressed her breakup with YG. “Joe Budden is a joke,” she tweeted.
    In his podcast, Joe made this comment about her new song, “I feel like I’ve been hoodwinked.” He added, “Cause it was just last week we came on this podcast [and] Rory made me listen to a YG and Kehlani song [Konclusions]. … I was with this new image of YG being in love.”
    He continued, “[‘Valentine’s Day’ is] unlike any Kehlani record I’ve ever heard,” before calling her out, “She really wants us to know how much of a piece of s**t YG is, but she’s hiding behind the thin veil of I’m not telling you guys who I’m talking about.”
    He admitted the song was good, “The f**ked up part is she’s smoking this s**t. And she stepped on that n***a’s single,” but he was less than impressed with Kehlani for picking apart YG, “Chicks don’t care what they step on when they’re in a rage. They don’t care what they ruin.”
    Kehlani responded, describing Joe’s comments as “disgusting.” She also dissed him for using her photo to promote his podcast on social media, “The amount of misinformation and lies and lameness in this episode about me and you used my face is … lol gotta love it.”

    Joe replied, “We love you, it’s jokes… feel better.” He later added, “I’m bout sick of you artists… never a peep through years of praise but wanna jump outta windows when you hear something you don’t like… newsflash, i am not friends with you n***as.”

When accepting the accolade, she confessed, “I’ve felt very hated recently. And, when I was on the stage and I saw you guys all smiling at me. It genuinely made me wanna cry.

    Hours before her live performance, Billie talked about being asked to sing the Bond theme song. During an interview with BBC Breakfast, she shared, “We’ve been wanting to make a Bond song for years.

    Speaking of the song’s live debut at the show, the “Wish You Were Gay” singer admitted, “I’m so scared.” She continued to share, “We’ve never performed it ever, so it feels so weird that it’s in the public, especially now that I’m performing it and I’m hitting a note I’ve never hit before. I’m scared.”

    Feb 19, 2020
    AceShowbiz – The Weeknd has continued the promotion for his highly-anticipated album “After Hours”. On Tuesday, February 18, the Canadian star unleashed the title track off the album that got fans speculating whether he is singing about his ex-girlfriend Bella Hadid.
    The song finds The Weeknd, whose real name is Abel Makkonen Tesfaye, addressing a relationship that ended in heartbreak and expressing how he desires a reconciliation. “Sorry that I broke your heart, your heart/ I said, baby/ I’ll treat you better than I did before/ I’ll hold you down and not let you go/ This time, I won’t break your heart,” he sings in the chorus.
    Elsewhere on the song, The Weeknd also admits to hoping to start a family with his former lover should they ever get back. “I won’t just leave/ This time, I’ll never leave,” he rhymes. “I wanna share babies/ Protection, we won’t need.”

    Considering his recent split from Bella, many were convinced that “After Hours” is about the Victoria’s Secret model. “Bella heading to Abel’s place after hearing after hours,” someone said along with a video of a child riding a motorbike in a high speed. Meanwhile, one other believed that the exes would get back together after listening to the song.
    “After Hours is literally an apology letter to Bella Hadid,” another wrote, as a fourth individual begged the sister of Gigi Hadid to “go back to Abel after hours is making me cry.” One more person still wasn’t sure and asked, “Okay but the real question must be asked….. is After Hours about Miss Bella Hadid.”
    The Weeknd has yet to respond to the speculation.
    “After Hours” is the third promotional song for his upcoming album, following “Heartless” and “Blinding Lights”. It is set to hit the stores on March 20.
