20 years after dominating the Urban-Pop landscape, beef is what’s popping most among the members of B2K these days.

And now Omarion is looking to tell his side of the story.

As reported, the drama between O and his former bandmates has been boiling to dizzying degrees in the wake of his VERZUZ showdown with Mario. Indeed, jabs have been thrown, as well as claims of J-Boog, Raz-Z, and Lil Fizz being “background dancers.”

With tensions high and the world weighing in, Omarion has unlocked the trailer for a five-part documentary series – in which he seemingly spills all.

Chronicling the band’s 2019 reunion for The Millennium Tour, no stone is left unturned – with everything from internal fighting, old wounds, and Fizz’s controversial relationship with Apryl Jones (the mother of Omarion’s children) laid bare.

Ahead of its July 21 premiere, check out the trailer for ‘Omega: The Gift and The Curse’ below…

The drama between B2K‘s members is boiling to scorching degrees in the wake of Omarion‘s VERZUZ battle with Mario. 

As reported, the latter brought out impersonators to mock the much-publicized issues within the band.

The move not only generated laughs from those watching but also from B2K members J-Boog and Raz-B. 

Needless to say, Omarion did not see the humor and launched a tirade against his former comrades – branding them his “three backup dancers” who always sought his “downfall.”

Now, J-Boog has weighed in with a lengthy letter spilling his side of the B2K fall-out and landed a number of zingers on O.

Days after making headlines for saying he was a better rapper than Eminem (as we reported here), The Game isn’t playing any games with detractors who believe otherwise.

The ‘How We Do’ hitmaker (born Jayceon Taylor) not only got lips moving when he took to REVOLT’s ‘Drink Champs’ podcast to challenge Em to a VERZUZ battle, but jaws dropped when he took to social media over the weekend to reiterate the stance.

“Is Eminem better than me? Nah, he not, bro. And I think the best way to see if he is or if I am is let’s rap about it. Let’s get up. Let’s get in the studio,” he said. “Let’s rap about it. Let’s do something. Let’s put something out. Let’s see ’cause that’s what this shit is, bro. It’s rap.”

And while Eminem has yet to render an official response, his dedicated fans have been taking Taylor to task on his behalf.  Tired of the hoopla, Game went on a lengthy Twitter tirade Tuesday night (March 8) to clap back at people who suggest Slim Shady is a better rapper because he’s sold more records.

In late September, Ashanti sent her fans into a frenzy when she took to ‘The Tamron Hall Show’ to reveal she was set to re-record her biggest hits (as we reported here).

The news – of particular importance for the R&B diva who is just 6 months away from celebrating the 20th anniversary of the release of her eponymous debut album – was trumpeted again during a recent interview on ‘The Angie Martinez Show.’

“Pause I think I gotta crush on Jadakiss,” Tyler commented. “That ni**a confidence and voice control is crazy and he aged well wheesh.

Needless to say, Creator’s words were among many hot topics discussed when Jada hit ‘The Breakfast Club’ Wednesday morning (August 11).  Hop inside to see how he responded to the hoopla:
