Just a day before its originally announced June 25 release, Saweetie hit fans with sour news the arrival of her debut album – ‘Pretty B*tch Music’ – would be postponed.

Citing dissatisfaction with the tunes set to line the project, the rapstress (born Diamonte Harper) confirmed she was going back to the drawing board to revamp the LP.

Though previously unsure of a new release date, Harper recently took to our friends at KIIS FM to not only confirm ‘PBM’ will still hit digital shelves this summer but its renewed tracklist may see some familiar names added.

Over a month after its release, H.E.R.’s critically acclaimed debut album – ‘Back of My Mind’ (click here to stream) – is still at the front of the line on R&B charts as it’s found at #5 on this week’s edition of the tally.

While fans continue to get acquainted with the GRAMMY and OSCAR winner’s inaugural studio effort, however, they’re still finding time to spin gems found aboard its predecessors – a feat, per the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), evidenced by the ongoing successes of songs like ‘U,’ ‘Comfortable,’ ‘Could’ve Been,’ and more.

DaBaby has been a firm fixture in the headlines after making shocking homophobic remarks during his performance at Rolling Loud Miami. 

As reported, the rapper drew on offensive stereotypes when addressing the gay community. He later went on to add abhorrent remarks about AIDS and HIV.

The backlash has been swift and seismic, with both fans and industry peers – including Dua Lipa – slamming him in earnest.

Now, after making one ill-advised attempt at addressing the matter, he has taken to Twitter to add more to the narrative.

Dua Lipa may have ascended to the top of the charts with ‘Levitating’ collaborator DaBaby, but that isn’t stopping her from voicing her disgust at the homophobic remarks he made about gay people at Rolling Loud Miami. 

As reported, the MC shocked the fans at the festival, when he randomly said:

“If you didn’t show up today with HIV, AIDS, or any of them deadly sexually transmitted diseases, then put your cellphone lighter up. Fellas, if you ain’t sucking d**k in the parking lot, put your cellphone lighter up.”

In the time since, the backlash has grown enormously – particularly after the rapper seemingly doubled down on his comments while ironically trying to extinguish the flames of anger.

Now, as the fury burns hotter, Lipa is the latest name to weigh in.

Lil Nas X and Jack Harlow are staging quite the takeover with their new jam ‘Industry Baby.’

The hard-hitting single, which was co-produced by Kanye West, has been making waves thanks to its unbridled lyrics and its cinematic music video.

A big part of the appeal for many has also been how unlikely a duo the pair are.

While weighing in on exactly that during a Genius feature, Harlow unpacked how much he respects Nas and why he was drawn to his entry.

If DaBaby wasn’t already speeding fast toward ‘CancelledVille’ thanks to his now viral homophobic rant at the ‘Rolling Loud’ concert festival Sunday (July 25), he’s well on his way to expediting the trip thanks to what he considers an explanation of his intent.

‘Rockstar’ rapper DaBaby has been rocking headlines since his showing at the ‘Rolling Loud’ concert festival Sunday night (July 25) saw him relay commentary deemed homophobic.

As reported here, the GRAMMY nominee’s (born Jonathan Kirk) name was sent to trending status on social media after he made insensitive statements on stage about people with HIV and men who ‘suck d*ck,’ dodged a shoe being thrown at him, and even brought out Tory Lanez minutes after Megan Thee Stallion finished performing.

With his shocking words continuing to make their rounds, many – including fellow celebs – are weighing in on the hoopla.  Among them is fellow rapper T.I., who is now making headlines for issuing a statement somewhat defending Kirk.
