From Kim Zolciak‘s and Kandi Burruss‘ ‘Tardy for the Party‘ to Countess Luann‘s ‘Money Can’t Buy You Class’ the Housewives’ have offered much to dance to (and laugh about) since bursting onto the small screen a decade ago.

J. Cole isn’t just pushing the envelope lyrically with new album ‘KOD,’ he’s “going there” with the visuals too.

In a masterstroke move, the rapper managed to secure the services of Kevin Hart in the video for the song ‘Kevin’s Heart.’

Not to be mistaken for “just another cameo,” Hart’s appearance is noteworthy because the song makes overt reference to his very real cheating scandal.

And it’s not something the accompanying clip shies away from.

Hart is seen dealing with the repercussions of his actions, including being given the cold shoulder from passers by. The end take-away? To “choose Wisely.”

With claims of “inauthenticity” and “appropriation” aplenty, the center of Iggy Azalea‘s fall from grace has not been centered around poor promotion or musical missteps (as most of her releases BANG), but instead have been concentrated on race and culture.  This idea, the rapstress asserted in a recent sit down with GQ magazine, is not far from her gaze – even if she doesn’t talk about it.

Just a day after making headlines for taking to ‘Paper’ magazine for one of her most politically charged interviews yet (click here to read more on that), the Grammy-nominee continues to shed light on hot topics such as ‘Black Lives Matter,’ Black culture, and how her connection to the concept is not only deeply rooted in the story of her life, but also far from fabricated.
