Fresh from Beanie Sigel‘s much-publisized beat-down, the rapper has hit the promo rounds to massage his masculinity and salvage his dented reputation.
However, he looks to have caused even more damage following disparaging remarks he made about the LGBT community.
Sigel’s venomous words were spewed during an interview on The Breakfast Club this morning.
See what he said, on National Coming Out Day, below…
Gabrielle Union cuts a striking figure on the cover of ESSENCE magazine’s November 2016 issue.
The gorgeous actress appears in support of her upcoming projects, which include the 4th season of ‘Being Mary Jane’ and new movie ‘Almost Christmas.’
Union also stars in ‘The Birth Of A Nation,’ which has occupied headlines after archived allegations of sexual assault levelled against lead Nate Parker were spotlighted.
With the star open about her own experience overcoming rape, many looked to her for her take on the matter.
She offerers an insightful response within her interview feature.
Here’s what she had to say…
While the critical and relative commercial failure of 2013’s ‘Artpop’ (and its singles) signaled to some a significant fall from grace for Grammy winning songbird Lady Gaga, the three years that followed proved quite the opposite. Redemption arrived in several packages including a highly praised, Grammy-winning chart-topper with jazz legend Tony Bennett, two stunning Academy Awards performances, and a Golden Globe win for her role in the ‘American Horror Story’ franchise.
As the feats above collectively seemed to spell great anticipation for a “proper” comeback of the eccentric songstress, many-a-diehard fan was sure the singer/songwriter’s reignited star would see her new music greeted with similar fanfare – a notion only solidified by word she’d reconnected with serial hitmaker RedOne for production contributions to the new project.
The setup would ironically prove to be a perfect illusion:
Kesha has been given reason to believe that her alleged attacker Dr. Luke is planning to her medical records after he gained access to them in May.

Jury’s out on when Tinashe‘s sophomore album ‘Joyride’ will land in stores.

Elle Magazine celebrates diva diversity in their November 2016 issue.
Billed as the ‘Women In Hollywood’ edition, the issue salutes eight successful females in the industry with their own covers.
Two of those names include Lupita Nyong’o and ‘How To Get Away With Murder’ actress Aja Naomi King.
The feature comes at an apt time for both ladies; Nyong’o’s new movie ‘Queen of Katwe’ hit theaters recently, while – beyond ”Murder’ – King is receiving praise aplenty for her performance in ‘The Birth Of A Nation.’

New Nicki Minaj is nigh.
After spending the last two years flaunting her skills on Hip-Hop heavy releases, the rapper taps in to her often underused “mainstream” appeal by securing the cover of Marie Claire’s November 2016 edition.

The worrying link between African-American chattel slavery and mass incarceration is explored in ‘13th‘, an eye and mind opening new documentary by Ava Duvernay.
Now available to watch on Netflix, the project scratches beyond the surface level slavery narrative often presented in the school system to expose the government’s ties a system which enslaved African-Americans after slavery was abolished in 1865.
Even more frightening is how this system is still in place…today.
People don’t know about this…history. They don’t know how we’ve gotten to this moment where people have to actually protest and be in the streets and say, ‘My life matters.’ My hope is that you see this and we start to change as people, we start to think twice about how we treat each other.
I cried a lot making this. It was emotionally exhausting. It was really, really challenging to do, but they must be done.

If you thought Beyhive stings were limited to pop culture figures, we’d suggest you think again. Yep, after former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee learned last year, politicians are not exempt from the wrath of the devoted fan base.
Now, just a month away from what could be a historic U.S. presidential election, former New York lieutenant governor Betsy McCaughey and current economic advisor to Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump should’ve sought some advising of her own before taking to CNN to slam Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton for supporting Beyonce.
Citing lyrics from the Grammy winner’s 2016 top 10 hit ‘Formation’ as evidence of Clinton’s hypocrisy for slamming Trump’s recently uncovered misogynistic rant from 2005, the move appears to have backfired as the ill-prepared comments set Twitter alight.
Check below to see the video that’s got the Beyhive stirring:
After taking a much needed break following 2014’s critically and commercially shambolic ‘Paula,’ Robin Thicke returns with a new Nas-assisted single titled ‘Deep.’
Showing off his oft-praised falsetto, ‘Deep’ sees the R&B crooner give fans the first taste from his yet-titled, reportedly yet-finished 8th studio album. And, as he prepares to perform the cut and many others from his hit collection on October 15th’s ‘TIDAL X: 1015,’ tuck in below to for your first listen:
Kendrick Lamar has amassed commercial and critical acclaim by merit of his talent and compelling bodies of work.
In recent times, he’s also become in-demand for major Pop features; case in point Taylor Swift‘s ‘Bad Blood’ and Beyonce‘s ‘Freedom.’
The latest of latter comes courtesy of Maroon 5, who’ve enlisted the rap titan for their new single.
