During a Beats 1 interview on #FreeBandz Radio, Future sat down with Big Bank Black (Superfly) to speak very openly about everything that has been in social media over the years and recently. Future shared that he didn't meet Russell until after he and Ciara were married, but throughout that whole time, Baby Future was spending time with him. Future added that he has absolutely no problem with his son being around Russell. He's a star NFL player who can teach his son, why wouldn't he want that. He simply hated the way things are gone about. Clearly. In his opinion, Russell Wilson does exactly what Ciara tells him to do. When it was him, she could never give energy to her exes in the media. He went on to say that Russell should be a “man” and forbid Ciara from even mentioning Future’s name in public. “He not being a man in that position,” Future said. “He not tellin’ her, ‘Chill out with that on the internet. Don’t even talk to him. I’m your husband! You better not even bring Future’s name up!’ If that was me, she couldn’t even bring his name up. She know that. She couldn’t even bring her exes’ names up. I don’t what they gave you…Don’t give that s**t no energy.” When it came to Wendy Williams making a chart to expose his baby mamas on her midday television show, Future spoke honestly. “Man, the Wendy Williams situation, the only thing I was mad about her, putting my kid’s mother up that don’t want to be in the limelight,” Future said. “…They’re not entertainers. Only time people know them is from me. If you see them responding, it’s because they want to respond. You can put her up. You can put them up. But don’t put the ones who ain’t responding. It’s two girls you’re putting on that list that don’t even never do social media.” Professionally speaking, we learn about his relationship with Rocko and how that got dirty when business starting getting good in the music industry. It when from him and Rocko being brothers, to Rocko telling everyone he was his "artist" after years after friendship prior. And that was all just in the first hour. A lot was touched on during this more than 2 hour sit down. Future also played The WIZRD in its entirety at the end of the broadcast. CLICK HERE TO LISTEN

On Thursday night, Nicki Minaj launched her very first episode of Queen Radio, an exclusive live event by Apple Music. The show was LIT from beginning to end with Nicki’s amazing energy being felt through the phone! She answered a few questions from fans, had a few phone calls from celebs including rap queen, Foxy Brown, and one by one she revealed what celeb female friends she had in the building. With each secret guest being revealed, the vibe in the room seemed to elevate even greater! The love & appreciation Nicki held for these women & they for her, was definitely noticed. The scene was set with pink lights & free liquor as Nicki was joined in the studio by some of the top women in #BlackGirlMagic right now including Kelly Rowland, Cassie, Lauren London, Justine Sky, Normadie, Draya, model Winnie Harlow, Basketball Wive Tami Roman, singer Sevyn Streeter & even Mrs. Kim Kardashian West. Yo Gotti was the only man in sight! Isnt he lucky! As the show went on, it was revealed that this show was supposed to be a listening party for Nicki’s fourth Studio Album Queen, but being that Nicki had just turned in the final project only 3 hours prior, he label was giving her a hard time about the turn around rate. Nicki was so livid about the release time going from 12a midnight to 12 noon the next morning, that she called a label rep live on air. He explained that there were still parts missing from the project and that people all around the world were working to make sure her album would drop ASAP. Nicki quickly snapped back at him the tone he used with her, but eventually took the situation for what it was & decided she would sleep right there in the Apple Music studios until 8a pacific time/ 11a eastern time, the next morning so she would be able to do the official release & listening party live with her fans, as she originally planned. Are you ready for #Queen?
Monday night was filled with fashion from the future and religious details as the, “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination” theme of the 2018 Met Gala took form. The night is claimed as “fashion’s biggest night out,” as celebrities and industry icons come together for a night of fundraising for the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
The night was full of love and jaw-dropping wearable art. Cardi B, who has had the year of her LIFE, attended her very first Met Gala along side Moschino designer Jeremy Scott, who designed her jewel-covered, bead-encrusted dress and headpiece. Of course, Cardi had the best accessory of the night: her baby bump! Her boo and baby daddy, Offset came in matching outfits with his Migos squad, but the two were seen together later in the evening.
Cardi even ran into Nicki Minaj, something I’m sure both women knew would happen at an event like this. The picture of the private conversation went viral as everyone wished they could be a fly on the wall for such a big moment in hip hop. The two New York rapper have had somewhat of a unspoken and really just confusing, social media instigated beef. In reality, was there or is there even a beef at all?
Social media turned the two women of hip hop against each other as soon as Cardi step onto the field, as if there could not be two dominate women in the culture at once. #TeamBarbie and #TeamBardiGang quickly formed as fan screamed out why one female was better than the other in their eyes. Things only got worse when the two collabed on the Migo’s summer hit, “Motorsport.” The release of the song was a weight lifted, everyone thought harmony was near, but the beef between fans only grew stronger when the two did not appear in the “Motorsport” video together. When asked in interview about the inside scoop as to why, no direct answers ever came from the Migos. And to Nicki’s memory, Cardi only talk about the fact that Nicki changed her verse on the song. Something that Nicki said hurt her feelings. She was looking for more praise and appreciation from the young artist in exchange for working with someone of Nicki’s stature at such an early part in her career. Which now has everyone wonder, how did that conversation between Cardi and Nicki go?! Lil Wayne has just found out that he is NOT the father of a 16-year-old boy who was named after him. Keiotia Watson claims she had sexual relationships with Wayne in 2001, and the baby was born in 2002. Watson didn’t start looking for child support until 2015, and Wayne was ordered to pay her $5,000 in child support after not responding to the paperwork, giving a default win to Watson. Wayne immediately filed a motion to have the case dismissed, saying he had never slept with Watson and not he has been proven right! Wayne is NOT the father! Two months after being released, the Black Panther is still breaking records. With a current income of $665.4 million domestically, Black Panther has now just passed Titanic, becoming the third-highest grossing film in North American history, coming in behind Star Wars: The Force Awakens and Avatar. Globally, the film has brought in about $1.3 billion. Infinity War is up next!
Diplomats rapper, Juelz Santana ran out of the Newark Airport on Friday after a gun was found in his bag. According to officials, the .38-caliber handgun was seen as the bag passed through the x-ray at a security checkpoint. At that point Santana ran from the terminal. They believe he may have jumped in a cab. Back in 2011, he was arrested when cops found handguns, drugs and ammunition in his New Jersey recording studio. Adult film actress Stormy Daniels is ready to come forward with the details behind her relationship with President Donald Trump. Daniels claims her and Trump had an affair in 2006, a year into his marriage with Melania Trump. Daniels filed a lawsuit against Trump this week to void the nondisclosure agreement she signed in 2016 right before Trump started his presidential campaign. Trumps personal attorney, Michael Cohen says he was the one who wanted Daniels to sign agreement, for Trump’s safety. Adding that Trump knew nothing about the agreement, and that the money given to Daniels in exchange for her silence, came from his personal funds. In the agreement, Stormy was unnamed, and Trump was given the alias David Dennison. Since Trump did not sign the agreement, Stormy’s attorney says the agreement is void. Trump is, of course, denying the allegations. “I am confident that when those evidence, or when that evidence and those facts come to light, the American people are going to conclude that attorney Cohen and the White House have not shot straight with them on this issue,” said Daniels’ attorney, Michael Avenatti. For those who miss doctors appointments due to not having a ride, Uber and Lyft are here to help! Uber has just announced the launch of Uber Health, a system that will allow health-care providers to schedule rides for patients. Over the past few years, Lyft has partnered with hospital systems, health insurers and medical transport services to help patients get to doctor appointments. Whether this idea will help out with the “appointment no-show” issue in the medical field or not, is still up in the air, but the idea is definitely a good one! The target groups are the elderly, low income patients and people who NEED to make it to doctor appointment for things such as cancer treatment and dialysis. One issue noticed by Uber is that some people may not even have smartphones to use the service, leading them to use text messages, printouts or even phone calls to notify customers of their ride. They found that a paper-based communication was the best form, “circle the make, model, license plate number [of the ride].” Patients with Medicaid can use transportation benefits that can be used for the services. While other medical providers simply pay drivers with their own money. The tour that the Florida survivors are on, may actually help make a change. Many companies are beginning to end their relationships with the organization after social media called for a boycott. Best Western, Wyndham Hotels, Alamo Rent A Car, National Rent A Car, Enterprise Rent A Car, First National Bank of Omaha are just a few that have separated from the NRA in the past 24 hours. These companies offered discounts to members of the NRA, but those discounts will end on March 26th. Students teachers and parents are calling for a ban of assault rifles like the AR-15, the gun used to kill 17 people in the Florida school shooting. On Wednesday night, the students and parents were able to speak openly with Florida Senator Marco Rubio and an NRA (National Rifle Association) spokesperson. When Rubio was asked to stop taking donations from the NRA, he declined, but did say he supports children being safe at school and any law that will keep a gun out of a killers hand. Following this town meeting, the NRA chief, Wayne LaPierre had a few words of his own. He told his thoughts on Democrats wanting to take away freedoms by taking away the second amendment right to bear arms, and shared his solution to put armed security guards on school campuses instead of trying to make new guns laws. The NRA is one of the main organizations attacked by the Florida survivors due to their strong support in guns and donations into politicians like Marco Rubio and Donald Trump. No word yet from the NRA.
