Xscape made headlines earlier this month when they announced that they are reuniting.

The R&B quad, comprised of Kandi Burruss, Tameka ‘Tiny’ Cottle, and La Tocha and Tamika Scott, are as notable for their hits as they are for their dramatic fall-out.

Now, not only are the problems being pushed into the past, it appears there could be a reality show component to the reunion too.

Rapper Snoop Dogg has made it no secret his longstanding disdain for the sitting president Donald Trump, but some say he took a step too far when he – alongside BADBADNOTGOOD & Kaytranada  – recently unveiled the controversial video for ‘Lavendar (Nightfall Remix),’ a visual that sees the Doggfather shoot a toy gun at a clown-faced version of the U.S. Commander-In-Chief (named Ronald Klump).

Trump’s lawyer took to TMZ to call the clip ‘disgraceful’ while Senator Marco Rubio suggested it could encourage assassination attempts on the president.  Their sentiments are far from few as a number of Twitter users took to the social media platform to not only echo, but also damn the Grammy-nominated emcee for his treason and mocking the Donald.  Birthing the trending topic #BoycottSnoopDogg, the Jesse Wellens and James DeFina-directed video got so much traction reports are coming in the U.S. Secret Service is “aware” of the video may be keeping an eye on Snoop (read more on that by clicking here).

Rihanna‘s former flame Travis Scott has found a friend and collaborator in Gentleman’s Quarterly!

Responsible for more Urban smash hits than he is credited for, the maestro rocked GQ’s latest edition with a cover launched to support his 2016 release ‘Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight‘….and his new release ‘AstroWorld.’

It might be the best music that I made. I have two records on the album that are like, man, they are the best. They tore down ‘AstroWorld’ to build more apartment space. That’s what it’s going to sound like, like taking an amusement park away from kids. We want it back. We want the building back. That’s why I’m doing it. It took the fun out of the city.

Exciting times!
