One thing’s for sure; Kanye West has had a heck of a headline-grabbing week.

When not dropping jaws for his red carpet antics at Sunday’s GRAMMYs (February 2), he followed up with a shocking interview where he admitted to being diagnosed with autism and claimed he is the only rapper alive who can beat Kendrick Lamar in a rap battle.

As if that wasn’t enough, the music and fashion mogul spewed a string of ableist, fatphobic, antisemitic, and homophobic tweets on Thursday (February 6) that sent his fans and critics spiraling in social media chatter.

Seemingly with no intention to cool the fire, West returned to X (formerly known as Twitter) on Friday (February 7) to douse the flame with even more incendiary commentary.

Ashanti has broken her silence on the death of Irv Gotti, who passed away this week at age 54.

The music mogul launched the R&B star into the stratosphere by way of his Music Inc imprint and helped her dominate the 00s music landscape on a roster that also included Ja Rule.

And, in the years before his death, Gotti magnetized backlash for his regular rumination on this, as well as his decision to publicize his business issues with his former protégé.

Now, in an emotional tribute, the ‘Only U’ singer pays homage to Gotti while acknowledging their complicated standing.

Transforming the iconic Los Angeles venue into the “Pride Lands,” the state-of-the-art experience brought the soundtrack and film to life via larger-than-life costumes, skillful dancers, and a 70-person orchestra.

Beyond performances by Broadway stars and even cast members of the original film (Nathan Lane, Jason Weaver), stars like North West (daughter of Kanye West and Kim Kardashian), Heather Headley, and EGOT-winning diva Jennifer Hudson brought the house down with their respective selections.

The standout undoubtedly came from the latter who dropped jaws with her stirring rendition of ‘Circle of Life’ – 20 years after doing the same on ‘American Idol.’

‘Pink Pony Club’ performer Chappell Roan rode to the top of headlines on Sunday night (February 2) when she not only captured Best New Artist at the 67th annual GRAMMY Awards but also lifted a stirring acceptance speech calling out record labels for not supporting up-and-coming artists with “a livable wage and health care.”

While her brazen statements earned cheers from audience members and droves of supporters online, Jeff Rabhan – a music industry executive and guest writer at ‘The Hollywood Reporter (THR)’ – was none-too-impressed as evidenced by his scathing op-ed on the news outlet’s official site.

Her response to his stinging critique consequently launched a war between him and her fans, a battle that prompted him to take to social media on Friday (February 7) to address in a candid open letter.
