Mo’Nique has been trending for a myriad of reasons of late.

First, for unloading on pretty much everyone during her viral visit to Club Shay Shay and then because of remarks her oldest son, Shalon Jackson, made in response.

As reported, Shalon (who is a comedian himself) took to TikTok to address the reasons his mother made public for their estrangement.

In the wake of his video, Mo’Nique and her husband-manager Sidney Hicks (“Daddy”) dropped a video of their own countering Shalon’s claims of the star being an absent mother. There was also the inference that he has mental health issues. Text message exchanges were then shared.

The latter appears to have irked the father of one anew.

For, he’s shared another video response.

Kelly Rowland may be hot on the promo trail in support of her own February 23-due new Netflix movie ‘Mea Culpa,’ but that hasn’t stopped her from showing love to some other highly anticipated films.

Despite multiple setbacks, Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign‘s long-awaited duet album ‘Vultures 1‘ finally migrated to digital music services on February 10.

Coming as the first of a three-volume affair, the 16-track project boasts guest appearances from Travis Scott, Chris Brown, Lil Durk, Lil Baby, Future, Playboi Carti, Freddie Gibbs, and more as well as a who’s who of production contributors like Timbaland, 88-Keys, No I.D., and, of course, West himself (to name a few).

The postponement of the LP’s release from January 12 to January 19 and eventually to the week of February 9 put it smack dab beside Usher‘s ‘Coming Home‘ – creating the year’s most exciting musical showdown yet.

And while the latter opus was aided by a Hot 100 top 40 hit (‘Good Good’), an aggressive promotional run, and increased visibility for its performer via the most-watched Super Bowl in history, the joint superpower of Kanye and Ty still seem poised to overpower the R&B singer on the Billboard 200.

Kanye West may not only be en route to watching his latest album, ‘Vultures 1,’ soar to #1 on the Billboard 200 but he could also see cuts from the project – namely the Ty Dolla $ign, Rich the Kid, and Playboi Carti-assisted ‘Carnival‘ – fly as high as the top 10 of next week’s Hot 100.

In an effort to block the latter, fans of his longtime nemesis Taylor Swift (affectionately called #Swifties) are joining forces to help Beyonce‘s latest singles – ‘Texas Hold ‘Em’ and ‘16 Carriages‘ – ride past West to the all-genre chart’s top spot.

Once word of their endeavors landed on Kanye’s desk, he took to social media to respond. Hop inside to see what he said.
