Young Thug has entered the chat.

Less than a day after French Montana earned some serious jeering from Twitter for asserting he had more hits than Kendrick Lamar (click here to read more about that), his own ‘Black Out’ co-star – Young Thug – took to social media to join the chorus of detractors.

Branding the ‘Unforgettable’ star a ‘p*ssy’ and ‘fool’ for suggesting his discography contained more memorable songs than Lamar, his fiery criticism landed on the desk of Montana – who hit back just as hard.

Look inside to see their war of words:

We had no idea Summer Walker was such a fan of fellow 2019 breakout star Don Toliver‘s signature tune, ‘No Idea.’

She showed the song some major love on YouTube Monday (April 20) when she performed a stunning cover, adding some impressive guitar licks to the Hip Hop cut (while donning a ‘lick me’ T-shirt).

What’s Walker without a little controversy, eh?

A whole mood, look inside to see Summer’s ode to ‘Idea’:

Entering at #59, Selena Gomez‘s latest single, ‘Boyfriend,’ made a solid debut on this week’s Hot 100 thanks in great part to its cinematic, Matty Peacock-directed music video.

Helping hoist the tune to iTunes’ sales chart’s top 5 upon its April 10 premiere, the clip has since amassed over 25 million views (as of time reported).

To give its shelf-life an extension, Gomez has taken to her official YouTube handle to invite her fans – affectionately called #Selenators – into a look at the behind-the-scenes action.

In lieu of her postponed nationwide tour (click here to read more), Kesha‘s latest album, ‘High Road,’ is keeping her on the promo trail all from the comfort of home.

Most recently spotted at ‘The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon’ (April 17), the 33-year-old rendered a spirited rendition of her latest single, ‘Resentment.’ While its Country-tinged recorded version features Sturgill Simpson, Brian Wilson and Wrabel, K opted to handle the live performance by her lonesome.

Fans of ‘Out of Your Mind’ maestro French Montana were wondering what the hell was on his mind after he took to press recently to proclaim he could outshine Kendrick Lamar.

While hot on the promo trail in support of his latest single, ‘That’s a Fact’ (click here to watch its music video), Montana visited our friends at ‘Complex’ to discuss a number of topics including his competition and live performing.

“I mean, honestly, you could put somebody like Kendrick Lamar next to me on the same stage at a festival. I might outshine him… not because I’m a better rapper or whatever it is. It’s just that I got more hits,” he said. “Kendrick Lamar got albums. He got masterpieces. But if you were to put us on the festival stage I would outshine him because I have more hits than Kendrick Lamar.”

Needless to say, the comment rubbed K.Dot fans the wrong way as many assumed French was asserting he was better than the ‘Humble’ star.

Once Twitter erupted with ridicule and receipts (i.e. Montana’s only had 4 top 40 hits since 2007), the Grammy-nominee took to the platform to clap back.

Victoria Monét is aiming to make a splash with new single ‘Dive.’

Fresh from being named Apple Music’s Up Next act, the singer-songwriter poured out the track – which is the third cut to be lifted from forthcoming album ‘Jaguar.’

Like preceding releases, ‘Moment’ and ‘A** Like That,’ ‘Dive’ sees Monét continue to blaze with brazen lyricism and honey-soaked vocals.

Speaking on the release, the star – whose writing credits include many Ariana Grande gems – said:

“Women are an adventure. We are as powerful as oceans, as beneficial as h20 and as fun as any theme park. Anyone lucky enough to taste that thrill should go all in. Dive playfully invites one to do so. It emphasizes the importance of women getting our pleasure through oral sex. It’s not talked about enough from our perspective and I wanted to break the ice. They say most humans are about 60% water, but I believe women must be 69% so dive in baby.”

Just a week after Doja Cat incited #Barb backlash for referring to the Nicki Minaj fan group as ‘scum’ (click here to read more), the ‘Say So’ singer is speaking out.

Recently interviewed by our friends at Apple Music, Cat recounted making the comment which – according to her – was aimed at a select few, not the entire fan base.

“This person was bullying [a fan of mine] at this point and just saying just mean, horrible things,” she told resident host Zane Lowe. “I’m standing up for this guy and then I’m just getting upset with everybody. And then I said, ‘These people are idiots; they’re children; they’re scum.’ Because they were, those five people are scum. They suck. They literally suck. They don’t even know who they are.”

That’s not all she said.  Look inside for more:
