this post couldn’t have come at a better time XDD
Lol
oooooooooooooooohh yeeeaaaahhhhhhh
But apart from his looks, I like that he say what he feel.
He did wanna spill the tea, it nearly came all the way out with him saying “Trey is a bitchass ego nucca” but he switched it up neatly.
It’s a fresh direction he’s on from what we had recently so good luck to him.
That material gotta be on it though.
Boy be skinny but s***.
Bet Sam was giving him the eyes thinking “you don’t need to f** with trey. You need to f** on me” lol.
Excuse my rude
Needs some refining but like the rawness.
Got an open persona and doesn’t like egotistical people.
Hope he keeps that mentality when his stock goes up in the industry.
Hoping the album shows that street edge and mixes it with the R&B sounds we like also.
Expecting a good fusion with the hip-hop beats infused with R&B singing (at the level he is capable of).
He’s so hot, hate his accent, It was so sad when he talked about his brother. 🙁 & Trey who?
I like him. Y’all call him ghetto but he’s refreshing imo!! He’s like a rapper but he sings. He’s not too bad on the eyes either. Trey is probably intimidated by him because he could snatch his lane, but August is more hip hop than R&B so trey should chill!
He’s cool.
Talks so much like a rapper but has that cool R&B vibe.
Wanna get his album as we need someone that’s a bit different from the typical R&B male act.
August is s***,I’ll pass on the album though.
I remember taking the same bait with Houston and his album was terrible. T.Q,Houston,and now August are R&B thugs, not a bad thing just not very marketable.If he does last hopefully he will become a little more refined and evolve musically.
21? So 1993? Um, no thanks. At least Trey was born in the 80’s.
This isn’t anything new. I mean, honestly Drake opened a door for him. And what about Ty dolla $ign. He does a very sing song rap type thing too.. And if we take it way back, there was Novel who kinda had the same type of approach. Either way, I’m am impressed that he seems very sincere but, he also seems kinda dumb. I guess you could say he’s sincerely stupid. Unless he’s trying to do hood flicks, he might want to clean up his interviews. What casting director is going to feel comfortable with all that “language”? How would he be during a press junket for a film? Oh we’re definitely not taking this guy to Cannes. Lol
Excuse me, who is the gutter rat coming to disrespect Trey? I know it’s not August Welfaresina. I know it’s not!
Gutter rat? Isn’t your fav engaged to Future?
Ciara fans be the first to talk about hood rats when their fave is about to marry the biggest hood rat of all. Multiple baby mamas but not a single hit single. August is a star and he is relevant and that’s something Ciara and Future will NEVER be. Beyotch!
He’s soooo ignorant! Like where is your media training.
Hes very unmarketable. Very attractive but as soon as he opens his mouth is just kills the vibe.
I cant rock with him at all.
Trey is Kim and August is Nicki to be honest.
The Beyhive wants to talk about being ignorant? Ha ha to the f****** ha, Beyonce didn’t even finish school.
Ciara and Future are going to get married you f****** w**** and Future talks much better than August so shut the f*** before I shut you up.
My king.
Who are you calling a f****** w**** you f****** b****?
This dog needs to learn to have some respect for Trey imo.
YOU b****, I’m calling YOU a f****** w****.
Them n***** GAY!Now August time faking a lane ass beef cause ppl started questioning them. If you gay you gay. I hate a celebrity that dont walk in their truth.
@ArianaAlsina You finna let her talk to you like that?
This b**** doesn’t know who she’s messing with.
He must have gone to the same school as Beyonce.
My boo is not ghetto, he is just real and if you can’t accept that you can swallow a ten inch burrito whole!
The true tea is that this entire beef is fake, people started to question if they were gay so August’s people are using this as damage control.
@ArianaAlsina You stan for two flops so i’m not surprised you’re so pressed. B****.
A hot flaming mess! I can see right through this phoney beef and can tell EXACTLY why it’s being started.
Delusion is your middle name if you think Future will ever marry Ciara. He only engaged her because of the baby, he will leave her like he did the rest of his baby mamas.
Listen up and listen good s***, keep August’s name out of your mouth before I have to embarrass you with some Fantasy Ride receipts.
TGJ always ask good questions and he came across very well but his language is atrocious, n***** here, n***** there, n***** everywhere. It’s so uncalled for.
Is Iconic Cici here yet? I want us to drag her like we did the last time.
I haven’t gave his music a listen to yet hopefully it’s good material, the music world is ready for a fresh wave of new talent.
Who the hell is TQ Houston? Please stop mentioning irrelevant ass people in my presence. It offends me.
Only fools will believe they got beef. These n***** are GAY! They are a couple still. P**** ass n*****!
SCREAMING at no hit post today, ey Samantha.
I guess since Bill dragged that ratchet ho for the gods yesterday, it’s game over. Everything that needs to be said has already been said.
And FLOPgust needs to hang his ghetto ass states side and grab himself a job application at Wendy’s. No one is here for his boring ghetto anthems.
Sexlijah > FLOPgust.
Hmm. I’ve been hearing about his buzz for quite some time so I decided to check out his stuff and while I appreciate that he keeps it real, he’s music is just not to my liking (it’s his voice but maybe I’ll warm up to him later). However, he is incredible to look at – look at his skin!
Comptons Finest? Jesus! We’re really in the ghetto now aren’t we?
Lovebird darling, did you get home ok last night? I was so worried when I saw you walking up and down the strip trying to sell what’s left of your p****.
LOOOOOOL Lovebird got dragged.
Drag downe Bey Bey King!
Poor Lovebird! Elle oh elle.
Hmmm he’s a cutie but way too young for motha.
I’ve heard a few of his track on pandora….Cute
Oh s***! HaterParrot must be gagging at this dragging!
Richie Rich, CNN dissed your fave today. I tried not to laugh but I did. S***.
Are you sure it was me you saw with that yeast infected eye of yours?
I ran straight here when I heard b****** were coming for my bae, but now I see y’all getting at this Lovebird n****.
lol some people just needs a life, hint hint hint….No post for you to loose you’re mind on today.
Yes girl, it was you. I tried to wave you down in my Aventador but I didn’t want anyone to think I was one of your tricks. Are you still charging $5 for blowjobs or has the recession hit that ass too?
Yes all the interns at TGJ are trying it with me today seeing that they now have so much ample time on their hands due to no hit posts.
Instead of worrying about me, worry about how Samantha is going to pay your minimum wage; unless you’re working for free with maybe a free curry every now and then.
The shade in this thread is iconic.
So, what’s that got to do with me@banjeeriri…The world is dissing riri sugar walls. They say it’s like the black hole, no bottom. I kii kii!!!!!!!!
Why are you deflecting from my question girl? Mad that Riwhore is still chasing Drake around town?
However, Beyonce the role model is questionable as hell.
I’m all for handcuffs, hot wax, stripper poles, whips — whatever it is two consenting adults want to do in the privacy of their bedroom to keep the relationship fresh. But increasingly, Beyonce has chosen not to keep such things private.
Beyonce’s steamy video for ‘Partition’
The lyrics to “Partition” pale in comparison with some of the more graphic phrases heard on her latest CD, and many parents complained that having her sexually charged performance open this year’s Grammys was inappropriate given the time of night.
Beyonce: Gender equality is a myth
I was not one of those parents, mind you.
But then again, I have a 17-year-old son, not an 11-year-old daughter.
Fox’s Bill O’Reilly was mocked recently for his pseudointerview with Russell Simmons, in which instead of talking about Simmons’ new book on meditation — which the hip-hop star came on the show to do — he ranted about “Partition.”
“Teenage girls look up to Beyonce, particularly girls of color,” O’Reilly said. “Why on Earth would this woman do that?”
And by “that,” he means sing about having s** in the back of a limo.
“I believe an entertainer like Beyonce, and a mogul like you, have an obligation to protect children. Not put out exploitative garbage that you know harm impressionable children,” he said.
That is what CNN had to say about her, so BOO.
Honey, you wear house of derion, you cannot afford me.
I see you’re thirsty for me though seeing that you inquired about my rates but sorry (not sorry), this body is a no basic zone.
Trey should slap this fool upside his head.
But love bird you’re always working for free on tgj, what’s the issue girl?
Girl you’re working blocks now? I guess Riri taught you well.
It’s House of Dereon honey and I would never waste a peso on you b****. Not when everyone knows you have the p**** funk and that s*** is as contagious as the h***** spot on Rihanna’s right p**** lip.
MaDT cuz Rihwhoreanna could strip in front of a day care center or suck Drake’s c*** n one of her trashy vids and Headline News would still giv no fux? lmaoooooooooo
@BeyBeyKing Yasss honey, drag ha.
The massive amount of trolling on this post is shameful. Anyway, I like August for what he is. I look forward to copping his album because his EP was really good. He’s a cutie too… “21 years old, he legal” 😉
Are the Hive REALLY in any position to call somebody a ho?
@openwallsriri…..girl boo for that copy and paste, you better put in work for the KING/QUEEN Beyonce’
@KeriMeHome Don’t talk to me. I don’t like you.
Gurl you’re the one battling a yeast infection in your mouth; I volunteer at that S** clinic you frequent. You didn’t think you would keep that quiet forever did you.
You’re a hive of infection; I feel like taking a long bath just responding to you.
Beyonce is a bigger h** than Rhianna though.
Oh b****, you got me wrong. The only one with a yeast infection is you but it’s OK honey, I think there is a cure for that.
By the way, you have to teach me that trick I saw you do the other night. You know the one where you take an entire d*** in your mouth without choking. #SuperheadAuthenticity .
Lovebird is dragging the living f*** out of BeyBeyFlop and Destiny Alsina is going to make the Hive mad for speaking the truth.
Yeap the hive sure can talking about y’all whorish faves. BTW home many men has Katy been link too?
Hell she’s not far behind taylor swift.
Beyonce is a married women. Try again
Any Question?
@rosegold ….21 doe, he is a cutie doe
Since this is gonna be a hit thread and all.

The shade of it all.
#SuperheadAuthenticity
DOA yessss
Where is my good sis Rosie? I need an update on Lana’s tour.
No but on the real Beyonce is a h** like how you gon talk about a n**** nutting on your dress like that s*** is the tea.
Not CNN joining in on the drag fest though; that’s where all your hits have gone Samantha.
The loose booty hive have found a new d**** to ride; I CANNOT.
poor trashbird. b**** is bloody and wigless
Who is that white lady in Richie Rich’s avi? Joan Rivers?
Lovebird is finished. BeyBeyKing ended her.
I want Elijah Blake in my mouth, August in my ass and Romeo Miller in my p****. Don’t @ me.
@DestinyAlsina, What men have Beyonce’ been link to beside her husband, MH, and her Boyfriend from highschool. I mean I can list Rihanna, but I don’t have enough room in this comment section.
August is more relatable imo, Trey seems so full of himself and it’s a major turn off.
who was that a** Rihanna bought on stage at the ama’s? #GorillaGenesRealness
Beyonce is a h** girl, just f****** admit only h*** talk about getting creamed on. She needs to have some self respect and stop actin like shes from the hood when shes not. It makes me mad when rich ass muhfuckers wanna act like they part of the struggle when they not. August is REALLY from the streets and he hustled and Beyonce didnnt thats why I dont like her.
A**? It must have been Beyonce.
It’s you’re long orangutan titties mother….Kii kii
No b****, it was Beyonce. I know it was her because I saw her on Animal Planet too.
@DestinyAlsina….oh girl, why you so caught up in you’re feelings? So you’re basically calling her a ho cause you don’t like her? Hmmmm, Beyonce’ keep y’
all low budget whores mad I see.
Beyonce is a married h**. get that correct sugar dumpling. While these otha b****** out chere spreadin p**** to the whole industry, like sour cream on cheese sandwiches
Are you sure it wasn’t Future dear?
The cheek of a Wasp to call August low budget when she is trying to copy his lifestyle in her videos. #YouAintAboutThatLife
naw baby I’m sure that large head primate was Rihslutanna’s mama. daddy f***** monkeys. aint that some s***
Are you sure it wasn’t Kelly’s relevancy heaux?
Oh are you mad? Shouldn’t you take the typical pressed BeyHive knee jerk reaction by taking your b*** hurt ass to CNNs Twitter account and ranting incoherently like someone stuck hot coal up your ass. It’s what your BeyHive do after all.
Are you sure it was her. I didn’t know people who got welfare and wic had the animal planet channel. How has it been since you’re on goverment asstiance Now CiCi.
Btw, Let me buy 200 dollars worth of food stamp for a 100. And, B**** don’t act like you and future don’t get 2000 a month for all them kids!!!!! kiiii
Bye CiCI just like you’re career!!!!!!
AngryBird….Why is Rihoeanna NOT on the RIAA with 7 ALBUMS?
Pretty sure it was Beyonce looking for a new number one.
You sure it wasn’t rihanna lookin for her p**** walls?
@HistoRih, Is that RiRI face in you’re avi after chris beat that A$$, sure does look like it….KiiKii
I’m pretty sure Drakeisha is looking for Rihanna walls. I bet he doesn’t feel nothing when hitting them loose walls.
Pretty sure it was Trey looking for some man b***.
Brokie_Broke shut up you flaming old queen . Ci is winning while your broke ass is begging in the streets of atl next to sheree whitfield kii. Ci and Futures coin is long and your d*** is short UGLY stay pressed
Pretty sure it August trying to hit a high note.
ThatRihannaJuice.net
ThatFlopyonceJuice.net
August is s*** but too skinny trey body is right he can take control of me anytime
The only thing that’s long about Future is his child support receipt.
Futures kids are well f****** taking care of idk why yall miserable bottom of the barrel b****** is so concerned with their life. They are winning and you are broke!!!kii
Pretty sure it was Trey f****** his homeboy in the ass but I’m sleep though.
Sweetie Cici and Future are PAID they spent over 20k on the babys bedroom already stay mad. She got her money up but do you?
After settling a child support lawsuit only a few weeks ago, another woman has pegged Future as the father of her child and is demanding payments.
A few weeks ago, Future was hit with a lawsuit for unpaid child support by a woman who claimed he was the father of her child born in 2001. After a DNA test that proved Future was in fact the father of the child, he settled the lawsuit and agreed to make monthly support payments. Once all that was settled, it seemed like the ATL rapper could continue with working on his upcoming album Future Hendrix, and hanging out with new girlfriend Ciara, but now he has a very similar lawsuit on his hands once again.
A woman filed a lawsuit in Georgia earlier this month, claiming she gave birth to Future’s child on December 4th. She is demanding child support payments, and has requested that if Future disputes the claims, that he take another DNA test.
Future has yet to respond to the claims, but it looks like he could be paying two baby mamas at the same damn time.
Still think he takes care of his kids b****?
@Super Cisus why are thiefyonce always so pressed smh, not my fault Beyonce been getting dragged thru the mud lately.
gurl bye. Thank child support court for forcin future dead beat ass to take care of his children. He’ll abandon the flop drag queen after she givs birth to their b****** child as well.
Hold on a moment! So you mean to say Future has a baby who is barely walking and is now going to have a new baby with Ciara? What kind of stupidity?
Does Matthew Knowles take care of his kids? Kii f*** off f***** Baby boy wilburn will be well f****** taken care of anymore questions ugly?????
The only reason Future supports his children is because he was forced to. And another thing, if he had a baby recently how long were he and Ciara actually dating before she got pregnant.
childsupportara fans stay mad at Beyonce kii not her fault the b**** is an epic undisputable flop b****
@jamie simply because the b****** have no lives kii like you said major coin was dropped on baby wilburn they are happy livin their lives and these pressed b****** cant stand it! Ci is winning!!!
What has Matthew got to do with this? Beyonce isn’t responsible for what her dad does, but Ciara is responsible for lying with a man who is too stupid to care for his own children. Like come the f*** on dude, you gon be a dead beat ya whole life?
we don’t keep up with matty boo. But Beyonce’s child is well taken care of. She waited until after she was married like a real woman is supposed to do. Not spread ya legs prematurely to every tom d*** and harry in the indusrty 😀
That’s cute coming from a f***** b****** child kii you dont even know your daddy so sit ugly
What da fux is Ci winning? I don’t see the b****’s name on the hot 100 or bb200? These b****** is livin in LALA land For real!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A man doesn’t have to be married to a woman take of their children. Ciara is a fool to have slept with him.
Oh damn! I didn’t know Future was living life that.
Don’t get mad at me cause you and you’re fav on government assistance.
Chile boo future is from kirkwood hun…the Pitts and cici from riverdale another pitts. Just ask Slay_hive
I grew up on cascade in guilford forest hun, broke is no where near me hun. I bet you want come check me out at 1100 Howell mill rd NW Atlanta, ga 30318 white provision condos to see how long this sweet c*** is.
Basic bishes need not to apply.
“No post for you to loose you’re mind on today.”
@RichieRich needs a f***** dictionary!
It’s *lose and *your
A dumb ass b**** that claims to be educated…GOODBYE!
He is a Dumbyonce fan though so…..
Ciara should think twice about marrying this dog and her fans should think twice before coming for Beyonce.
richie_rich sit down loser
Ciara is more authentic & beautiful than Beyonce
Future is a good man Cici will be fine.
Richie_rich don’t need to do anything beside what he’s doing. Keeping y’all broke h**’s PRESSED…
Ms. Teacher girl have you found you’re self esteem yet , why you worried about my typing.(Typing fast)Or is you’re self esteem lost in RiRi loose walls.
The real question is, is future a good father?
Beyoncé Stan’s are so childish and comical, I actually think they’re a different life form because no human could be that dumb
@Richie
hun, I hope that wasn’t your real address cause I’d hate for these crazy Ciara stans to hunt you down and try to hurt you. But anyway, you better DRAG these bxtches chile. lol
How dare you insinuate anyone being childish with that ridiculous parody picture/troll name, dedicated to your immaturity towards the race and image of Beyonce’s child! You are such a bitter commenter.
@Slayriah ….Yess it is, I live in a gated community….Them broke bishes want make it past my doorman.
Wow a Britney stan sighting, I thought those went extinct back in 07 lol.
August? It’s still March honey!
All i heard was “i f***** Trey and now he in his feelings so it’s a little tension”…
But baby boy is waaaaay cuter than Trey
Trey better watch out! He has august, and even Miguel on his back. Plus his last album wasn’t his best.
I have been browsing online more than 3 hours as of late,
yet I never found any attention-grabbing article like yours.
It’s pretty price enough for me. In my opinion, if all web owners and bloggers made just right
content as you probably did, the internet can be much more helpful than ever before.
