Pink Sweat$ came through with his second single of the year following February's banjo-led "17," with an equally pop-twinged track, "Ride With Me." Although the jury's still out on whether some places around the world will even be able to enjoy it to the fullest this year, summer will be arriving soon regardless, and with the sunny season comes the obligatory summer jams. Sweat$ seems to have made it his mission to deliver one such song, dropping the effortlessly catchy, "Ride With Me," as the warm weather fast approaches. The breathy vocalist showed off his impressive pipes on the bubbly bop over an infectious beat, perfect for dancing around without a care in the world, even if it's just in your bedroom. "Ride With Me" is the feel-good, happy anthem we all need right now, and the artist even dropped an on-brand pink-themed lyric video to continue to uplift his fans. Check out "Ride With Me" and let us know what you think. Quotable Lyrics Baby, when you say my name Sit back, sip some Chardonnay Let's just how I'm feeling, bae When you touch me in that way View the full article

If you smoke weed regularly, your consumption rate may have spiked up in recent times due to coronavirus. With many people staying indoors these days, per the request of government and health officials, lighting up became even more ingrained in the average stoner's day-to-day life. The bad news is that officials are claiming that smoking weed can actually make the lungs more vulnerable in catching coronavirus. Andrew Toth/Getty Images A report from CNN revealed that even those that use cannabis occasionally are more susceptible to catching the virus. "What happens to your airways when you smoke cannabis is that it causes some degree of inflammation, very similar to bronchitis, very similar to the type of inflammation that cigarette smoking can cause," chief medical officer of the American Lung Association said. "Now you have some airway inflammation and you get an infection on top of it. So, yes, your chance of getting more complications is there." 2 Chainz has since chimed in on the latest development on coronavirus. Taking to Instagram, he shared a screenshot of a similar article along with a photo of himself with a massive spliff in his mouth. Though the study might be alarming for someone who smokes as frequently as him, he did have some questions regarding this study. "What about cigarettes , cigars , heroin , crack , meth ?? Or only reefa ? Asking for a friend," he wrote on Instagram. It should be noted that cannabis use has increased since the pandemic began, especially in areas of North America where recreational use of cannabis is legal. On the other hand, given America's complicated relationship with the plant, 2 Chainz' skepticism makes sense. Peep the post below. View the full article

Ever since Gucci Mane was released from prison in 2016, he's been on a positive and motivational tip. He's seemed to make peace with many people that he previously had issues with, but there are clearly others that he still has problems with. Even then, the new Gucci has been trying to motivate the people, especially after everything he's overcome in life and it's rare that we see him shed any negativity in the world. Apparently, Easter was the day that he decided to share a little public prayer for his enemies. In wake of the Coronavirus pandemic that has claimed over 112K lives across the globe, Gucci Mane decided that the day when Jesus was resurrected from the dead was a good time to wish death upon his enemies. "I pray my haters die of corona virus," he wrote on Twitter. Some might consider it harsh but if you think about it, it's a pretty tame insult for Gucci Mane's standards. Especially, if you consider that he once told Jeezy, "Go dig your partner up." In related news, Gucci Mane has been recently building the 1017 Eskimo roster. After announcing that he has a million-dollar contract for up and coming artists, he revealed that he signed Atlanta up-and-comer Ola Runt to the label. Once the pandemic dies down, hopefully we'll be getting new music from both of them. View the full article

Young Chop was beaming from ear-to-ear in his mugshot taken after he was arrested for attempting to track down 21 Savage in Atlanta. As many of you are probably well aware, Chop has been on a dissing spree of sorts lately, deciding that virtually everyone is on his metaphorical hit list. One of the earliest and most frequent targets of his insults is 21 Savage, who has responded to Chop's verbal abuse on multiple occasions, often speaking to the absurdity of it all. Image via HNHH Although it seemed like he was all talk, Chop recently took things a little too far when he scoured 21's Atlanta neighbourhood looking for the rapper. He was arrested for reckless conduct, but not before he claimed that his Uber had been shot at in the same neighbourhood, seemingly implying that 21 had sent some of his goons to take care of business. Regardless, Chop was booked into police custody. His mugshot from his visit to jail has now surfaced, and from the look on his face, Chop doesn't seem to regret a thing. The rapper-producer was all smiles while the cops took his picture, which was shared by Akademiks on Instagram with the caption, "They got #youngchop mugshot after he got locked up riding around #21savage hood looking for him in a uber that eventually got shot up." Chop actually commented on Ak's post, writing, "I don’t remember that what’s going on Ak." It's unclear which detail he's specially referring to, although, to be fair, a lot of Chop's recent comments haven't been entirely coherent. View the full article

Say what you will about Blac Chyna but you can't deny that she's a hustler. Starting off as a dancer and video model, she used her status to leverage herself into becoming an entrepreneur. Six years ago, she launched her own make-up brand Lashed by Blac Chyna and even has her own salon out in California right now. Given that everything is shut down, for the time being, it appears that she's found a new way to supplement any lost income. Amy Sussman/Getty Images Taking to her Instagram story, Blac Chyna might kick off a new trend among Instagram Models moving forward. Chyna hit the 'Gram where she revealed that fans can purchase a follow back from her for $250 USD. Perhaps it could be of good use in the future to have someone like Blac Chyna follow you, especially if you're trying to build a following on Instagram. That isn't the only new service that Blac Chyna is offering on her website. For $950 USD, you can get on a Facetime call with Blac Chyna. It's unclear how long the call would be. What's interesting about this is that Blac Chyna's clearly aware of the current financial crisis that many people are in and has financing options available for anyone who can't pay the charge of $950 upfront. It's hard to imagine that this won't prompt other IG personalities to follow suit. View the full article

Virgil Abloh has consistently been one of the most talked-about designers in the fashion world over the years and for good reason. His Off-White brand has become one of the most popular fashion imprints in the world and continues to be worn by people all over the world.

Almost three years later, Abloh and Nike are still going strong as he tries to develop some new shoes. A couple of months ago, we posted about the Off-White x Nike Air Rubber Dunk which had been shown off at a fashion show. This sneaker was black and green and featured a multitude of materials alongside Abloh's signature DIY aesthetic. Now, thanks to @hanzuying, we have some detailed images of the Rubber Dunk which is supposed to drop sometime in the spring. These images range from product shots to on-foot images and they all look pretty incredible.

When you're in quarantine and can't leave your house, there isn't very much to do aside from playing copious amounts of video games, all while catching up on some of your favorite television shows. Superstar NFL tight end and recent Super Bowl-winner Travis Kelce knows exactly what I'm talking about. He has been spending the last few weeks in front of his PlayStation, making his way through all of the games in his collection. Well, all of this has come at the dismay of his girlfriend, Kayla Nicole. In fact, she recently took to Instagram (and TikTok) to show off the ways in which she tries to distract Kelce from his video games. Of course, the vast majority of her efforts include sensual dances and the use of her butt to entice Kelce away from the screen. As you can see from the video below, her efforts haven't actually paid off. Kelce seems pretty content with his video games and honestly, we don't blame him. Some games take hours to complete and the quarantine is the perfect time to get through some titles he may have been putting off. The last thing you would want during this time is a distraction. We're sure some of you wisecracking commenters will have some jokes about this so we look forward to reading them. In the meantime, let us know what games you have been playing during the lockdown.

Giannis Antetokounmpo has become one of the most exciting players in the entire NBA and he just so happens to be extremely funny and entertaining. The Greek Freak has become a social media expert throughout the quarantine and last night, he proved himself, once again. There has been a game going around on Twitter lately where you are presented with six houses with varying types of people in each house. The game asks you to decide which house you would want to be in. Recently, there was a game involving infamous siblings. Giannis and his four brothers were up against the Gronkowski's, Williams,' Watt's, Ogwumike's, and Curry's. Instead of choosing to grow up with his own brothers, Giannis opted to spend his childhood with the Watt's. This is certainly a betrayal of the highest order although considering it's Giannis who is saying this, we know it's just a joke. A fan in the comments noted that Giannis should have said the Curry's, because it would have made people think he wants to go to the Golden State Warriors in free agency. Luckily, Giannis spared us from the hysterics that would have caused. As for his brothers, I'm sure they had an interesting conversation in the family group chat after Giannis, tweet.

It's been nearly a year since Kanye West and the Sunday Service took over Coachella for Easter Sunday. Unfortunately, for many who observe the holiday, Easter service likely isn't an option due to the Coronavirus pandemic. For Kanye fans, or anyone who's simply appreciated the rapper's foray into gospel, Sunday Service will still go on for Easter but they're still adhering to social distancing practices. Robin Marchant/Getty Images According to Page Six, Kanye West teamed up with Pastor Rich Wilkerson Jr. this weekend for a virtual edition of Sunday Service for the holiday. Pastor Wilkerson Jr. told the publication that the artist and his choir prerecorded a performance for the VOUS Church. Wilkerson's sermon will be live streamed via Facebook and YouTube, as well as the VOUS website, starting at 8 a.m. with a Spanish translation available at 11 a.m. This announcement comes after Kanye revealed that he'd be pulling out of Joel Osteen's Easter Sunday service. Kanye had planned to bring 100 members of his choir to perform while wearing masks and keeping six-feet apart from each other. Clearly, Kanye realized that this was still not necessarily safe and called it quits. Kanye still had a plan b, after all. Hopefully, once all of this is done with, Kanye will be back on the road bringing the good word of the Lord to the masses with the choir. [Via] View the full article

Pouya and Boobie Lootaveli have unique sounds that complement one another quite nicely. With this in mind, it shouldn't be a surprise that the two Miami MC's are frequent collaborators who wear their Southern influences on their sleeve. Well, the duo is back with yet another track that is as unmistakeably Florida as the Daytona 500. The song used heavy 808s with both Pouya and Lootaveli offering up some uptempo flows. There are plenty of references to gators and Floridian swamps, as well as the typical bars about women, getting money, and doing a whole lot of drugs. The two trade verses throughout the song and it makes for a quick and simple banger with a ton of chemistry to go around. Quotable Lyrics: Miami, Florida, nothing but 'gators in that (Water) Don't even bother, get to the paper, they got nothing to (Offer) Life is okay, I just wish I was (Taller) But I'm okay, still gonna put my dick in your (Daughter) View the full article

It has been one hell of a week for Tory Lanez who is fresh off of the release of his new project, New Toronto 3. The project arrived during a week followed by Instagram debauchery -- mainly, the controversy surrounding Quarantine Radio. As the majority of people have stayed inside during this time, the rapper's Instagram Live show was filled with ass shaking, celebrity guests, and virtual bottle service. Unfortunately, the ass shaking proved to be problematic when Tory was banned from going live for a week. Though IG lifted the ban, Tory did celebrate the release of New Toronto 3 with a DJ set on TikTok which set a new record for any live stream on the platform. But perhaps what was even more impressive is that Tory managed to do that while keeping it PG. Admittedly a bit drunk, the rapper hit the 'Gram to celebrate reaching 70K viewers without any ass being shown. "Shout out to TikTok. I don't know if y'all was at my DJ shit -- I'm kinda drunk, my bad," he said. "I just broke the record on TikTok for 70 thousand live viewers. Brand new people and all I did -- I ain't show no ass. There was no ass! There was no ass shaking. There was no call request. All I was doing was playing music and being me. I beat the record on TikTok! Please leave me alone. I love all my fans!" This was later confirmed by TikTok's Twitter account that retweeted a tweet from Tory Lanez that shared the same sentiment with applauding emojis. View the full article

Jack Harlow is one of those artists that has been consistently slept on over the past couple of years. Upon looking at him, he certainly doesn't give off the rapper vibe. However, once you dive into his music, you realize that he is very much for real. Harlow is currently signed to Generation Now and has come through with some dope albums and even some big hits like "What's Poppin.'" His efforts have allowed him to receive an increase in attention and recently, he made his way to Charlie Sloth's "Fire In The Booth" segment. As you can see from the video below, Harlow went off in his freestyle and came through with a hard-hitting flow and some pretty clever bars, including one about kissing a girl like she's his son because he's like Tom Brady. As the resident sports writer here, I had to point this one out. Regardless of how you may feel about Harlow, there is no denying he has plenty of rapping ability to go around. His projects continue to get better and if he keeps perfecting his craft, Jack Harlow could be a name that sticks around for a very long time. Let us know what you thought of the freestyle, in the comments below. View the full article

Mitch Trubisky is easily one of the most disrespected quarterbacks in the entire NFL. Over the last year, Trubisky has received criticism for his inaccurate passes that kept the Chicago Bears out of the postseason. Trubisky has proven himself to be competent when he wants to be but over the past season, fans have turned on him. In fact, the Bears recently traded for Nick Foles and are planning on making him the starter. Now, a restaurant in Chicago is taking its own digs at the QB. Of course, we are in the midst of a pandemic and are being encouraged to practice social distancing. The restaurant decided to leave a note encouraging its patrons to maintain their distance and they did it in the most hilarious way possible: by comparing the distance between people to by how much Trubisky misses his receivers by. “During this Coronavirus outbreak, remember to remain at least 10 feet away from others. If you’re wondering how far that is, picture a Bears wide receiver and then imagine where Trubisky threw the pass. That distance is about 10 feet," the note said. This note immediately went viral on social media, as it should. Jokes at Trubisky's expense seem to do well on Twitter and this was no exception. If anything, it just goes to show how brutal Chicago sports fans can be. View the full article

Blac Chyna and Rob Kardashian might share a child together but their relationship has been quite messy in the public eye. The two have been in and out of course since Rob accused her of strangling him with an iPhone cord and attacking him. However, it appears that even though this has legal battle has been going on for the better part of the past three years, he's revealed new details in recently filed court documents. Greg Doherty/Getty Images According to The Blast, Rob Kardashian alleges Blac Chyna had been "snorting cocaine" prior to attacking him with a 6-ft metal pole. The excerpts obtained from court documents reveal that she had not been using drugs or drinking during her pregnancy with Dream nor when she was breastfeeding their child. "As soon as she stopped breastfeeding dream in the second week of December 2016, she started drinking to excess and using cocaine again," Rob alleged in court documents. He added that on the day of the altercation, "Chyna participated in a photoshoot at the Hidden Hills house, along with photographers, a makeup artist, a hairstylist, Chyna’s friends, members of her entourage and others" where she "consumed large amounts of Moet Rose champagne (her drink of choice) and snorted cocaine." Kardashian continued to allege that Blac Chyna pointed a gun at him and threatened his life. He added that there were friends on FaceTime who could vouch that was "under the influence of drugs and alcohol, holding a bottle of champagne, brandishing a gun toward Rob and acting erratically."

Iyanna "YaYa" Mayweather is seeking the best of the best legal counsel to represent her in court, as she is facing a felony aggravated assault for allegedly stabbing her "fiancé" NBA YoungBoy's baby mama, Lapattra Jacobs. After the news broke last weekend that YaYa, daughter of Floyd Mayweather, had been arrested for her alleged involvement in the stabbing of Lapattra at YoungBoy's home, the incident led to tons of subsequent drama. Not only did it ignite (or possibly reignite) beef between Kodak Black and YB, but it also caused YB to call YaYa's famous father a "bitch ass n*gga" in front of her. YaYa has also been ordered to stay away from Lapattra, who ended up needing emergency surgery on both her stab wounds. The situation is pretty serious, YaYa is making sure she has the best legal representation out there. Allen Berezovsky/Getty Images YaYa has hired Kurt Schaffer, to represent her against the Harris County District Attorney’s Office. She is currently facing a felony aggravated assault with a deadly weapon charge for alleging stabbing Lapattra, and if convicted, YaYa could be facing up to 99 years in prison and a $10,000 fine. Schaffer confirmed that YaYa plans to plead not guilty when she returns to court in August. Jemal Countess/Getty Images Schaffer has successfully defended founder and CEO of Houston’s Rap-a-Lot Records, J. Prince, in the past. Prince was accused of ordering Ronnie Bookman to be jumped in 2007 at his gym complex due to Bookman's alleged refusal to sell his ownership stake in a local recording studio. According to Prince, Bookman ultimately admitted to committing perjury in a deposition for a separate $10 million civil suit against Prince, and prosecutors subsequently dropped the case.

Rudy Gobert became a punchline the night of March 11th when it was revealed that he had tested positive for Coronavirus and singlehandedly led to the entire shut down of the NBA. Gobert had been reckless about the disease prior to his positive test and it led people to use him as a sort of scapegoat. In fact, there are reports circulating that teammate Donovan Mitchell is incredibly upset with Gobert and that they won't be able to salvage their relationship. It appears as though things are actually worse than that. The Athletic is also reporting that Gobert has completely stopped talking to the Jazz as an organization. With this in mind, it's clear things could be over for the two sides when play eventually starts back up again. “Not only is Rudy [Gobert] non-communicative with Donovan Mitchell, he’s largely not communicating with the Jazz right now, either," reporter Tony Jones said. Gobert's reported position shouldn't be shocking. Many left Gobert out to dry over this whole thing and he quickly became the face of what not to do during a pandemic. He has been treated as a dunce for weeks now and the Jazz haven't tried to defend him at all. Not to mention, there isn't even confirmation that he gave Mitchell the virus in the first place. Over the coming weeks, this situation is bound to get more interesting. View the full article

Ben & Jerry's makes some of the best ice cream in the world and Nike makes some of the best sneakers in the world. With that being said, you could only imagine the good that would come out of a collab between the two. Well, it seems like it's a real possibility as just a couple of weeks ago, we reported on how the two were set to release a take on the Nike SB Dunk Low. The shoe had cow-print overlays and a yellow Nike swoosh that was dripping like melted ice cream. Thanks to the Instagram sneaker insider @zsneakerheadz, we now have a more detailed look at the shoe. As you can see, the toe box and side panels are vibrant shades of blue and green while the inside lining is rainbow-colored. From there, we have a green outsole which adds some uniformity to the Ben & Jerry's motif. If you're an ice cream lover who also happens to be a Nike SB buff, these are certainly the shoe for you. Unfortunately, there is no release date yet so stay tuned for updates as we will be sure to bring them to you as soon as they become available. View the full article

News from the sneaker world hasn't exactly been positive as of late when you consider how the Coronavirus has forced numerous release dates to be pushed back. Regardless, brands are doing everything they can to make sure fans get their shoes, as quickly as possible. Sneakers certainly aren't the most important thing in the world but for some, they could prove to be a worthy distraction during these uncertain times. Last week, Nike revealed the summer lineup for Jordan Brand and it was pretty incredible. One of the shoes that caught our eye was the Air Jordan 1 High OG "Tie-Dye," which featured a blue and green tie-dye upper, along with a black toebox and Nike swoosh, and white side panels. Overall, it is one of the more interesting colorways we have seen in a while and thanks to @repgod888, we now have some dope on-foot images of the shoe. As you can imagine, this sneaker looks dope with an outfit and will certainly prove to be a hit during the warmer months. If you're hoping to cop these, they will be dropping on June 11th for $170 USD so be sure to be on the lookout at your local sneaker retailer. View the full article
