August Alsina has never been shy about sharing his health battles over the years, namely an autoimmune illness that’s impacted every aspect of his life and career.

In addition to chronicling the journey for his fans via social media and his recent ‘stateofEMERGEncy’ documentary, he is now offering a praise report of sorts via Instagram.

Taking to the platform Thursday (July 9), the 27-year-old lifted an inspirational message to detail his progress from last year to now.

YG said a ‘big no’ to re-collaborating with his ‘Big Bank’ co-star Nicki Minaj after she worked with infamous snitch 6ix9ine.

Recently taking to L.A. radio station REAL 92.3, the rapper (born Keenon Jackson) didn’t bite his tongue when asked by resident DJs Bootleg Kev and DJ Hed if he would ever work with the GRAMMY-nominated femcee again.

“I don’t know, my feelings is hurt. I’m a real street ni**a,” he said.  Later, he definitively declined and said she was “canceled.”

Needless to say, by the time his comments reached the desk of several Minaj fans – affectionately called #Barbz – they flew to her defense.

KeKe Palmer‘s no stranger to delivering hits hot and ready for fans consumption, so it’s no surprise she’s keeping the trend going with her new song, ‘Snack.’

A braggadocious affair that sees the 26-year-old spit some serious fire about her bedroom prowess and more, the tune is one of many expected to line the tracklist of her forthcoming EP.

“Walked in this motherfucker lookin’ like a snack / When I’m done wit ya nigga you can have em back / I know you see all this ass bussin’ out da pack / Got me lookin’ like a snack, lookin’ like a snack, ooh / Walked in this motherfucker lookin’ like a snack / When I’m done wit ya nigga you can have em back / I know you see all this ass bussin’ out da pack / Got me lookin’ like a snack, lookin’ like a snack, ooh,” she sings on the Tasha Catour-produced track.

Jada Pinkett-Smith kept it all the way real in her recent ‘Red Table Talk’ episode addressing the August Alsina scandal.

As fans of the singer took #WeLoveYouAugust to trending heights on Twitter last week after he explosively admitted to a “Will Smith-approved” love affair with the actress, many pointed a finger at Jada for what was deemed “predatory behavior.”  When not slamming her for allegedly taking advantage of him given his emotional and physical state at the time of the affair, the Smiths were dodging criticism of being in an open marriage.

Friday (July 10), Jada and Will took to the red table to discuss the situation at length.
