A private family dispute involving GloRilla has unfolded in public over the past several weeks, with the artist and her sister Victoria leveling painful accusations at one another. The latest exchange came during an appearance by Victoria on the web series 20 Women Vs., where she described feeling anxious about the prospect of seeing her sister in person. “I’d be scared as hell. I’ll be scared as I’m going to need every police in the United States with me,” she said. “I’ll be scared as a motherf*cker.” The strain had surfaced earlier this month in a series of social media posts. Victoria accused the Memphis-born performer, whose given name is Gloria Woods, of distancing herself from relatives after achieving success. “You think she this upright a*s person when she really not ain’t fwu since she got on and I’m constantly getting acknowledgment for being her sister and she ain’t fwu at all,” she wrote. “Gloria Woods call my bluff it’s been 4 years why the media haven’t seen your siblings? And don’t say cause you protecting us cause we still in Memphis it’s cause you talk about our struggles and you don’t fwu!!!! na let’s clock it.” GloRilla Fires Back on Instagram Live GloRilla responded during an Instagram Live broadcast, disputing her sister’s account and alleging long-standing harm within their relationship. “You don’t have to say everything you did to me as a kid. I was a minor, so half of it ain’t public record,” she said, before listing incidents she claims involved betrayal and legal consequences. “I ain’t gonna talk about how you got me sent to jail for a whole week. We ain’t gonna talk about that. How you tried to shoot me, you done set me up, you got me sent to jail. We ain’t gonna talk about none of that, all right? I ain’t gonna talk about half the stuff you did. Just leave it alone.” The exchange has left observers with more questions than answers. No court records connected to the allegations have been made public, and neither woman has signaled an effort to resolve the conflict privately.

Shyne stopped by HOT 97 to talk to Nessa about his upcoming headlining show on May 2, 2026 at Kings Theatre — his first ever as a solo headliner since the release of his debut album Shyne in 2000. The show marks the 25th anniversary of the album and serves as a celebration of a career that was interrupted just 90 days after his debut dropped. He opens up about not being able to tour at the height of his success, what this homecoming in Brooklyn truly means, and why this night feels bigger than redemption. He also reflects on his journey from incarceration to becoming an elected official in Belize, the impact of his deportation, and how spirituality changed his life. Shyne speaks candidly about his time with Bad Boy Records, his complicated history with Diddy, being compared to The Notorious B.I.G., and how he views that conversation today. He shares what success looks like now as a father, humanitarian, and public servant — and teases new music, possible surprise guests, and what fans can expect to feel when they leave Kings Theatre on May 2nd.

NASCAR racer, Tyler Reddick is breaking his silence after a clip of his son and Michael Jordan went viral. “I don’t see what others see,” Reddick tells Stephen A. Smith in a new interview. Over the weekend, Jordan attended the Daytona 500, and while celebrating with Reddick in victory lane, footage caught Jordan tugging on his son’s shirt and touching his legs. According to Reddick, this was not a big deal because he and Jordan’s family are close. Jordan is the owner of 23XI, the racing company to which Reddick is signed. “For me, it’s a huge moment. This is the biggest moment of my career. It’s a huge moment for my family and for his family,” he says. View this post on Instagram “I don’t see what others see,” Reddick says Reddick continued: “And I just put that off to the side and think about the look on (Jordan’s wife) Yvette’s face and the whole family and his whole group when they got to victory lane. And just how happy everybody was, and celebrating together. So yeah, that’s where I’m at with it.” While many people, like Reddick, came out in defense of Jordan, others found the interaction inappropriate. “Pretty crazy turn of events knowing a crash in the Daytona 500 revealed how much of a pedophile Michael Jordan is …” someone posted to X. Another person accused the NBA legend of groping the child. “Michael Jordan was so excited after Tyler Reddick won the Daytona 500 win that he couldn’t control himself, and whilst knowing he was on national television, he groped a child. Nice brains, people.” One person criticized Jordan’s defenders, writing, “People are defending him by saying MJ is being playful, but that’s not how you be playful with a child.”

Gunna may soon be the subject of a Netflix documentary, if a recently surfaced billboard is any indication. The advertisement, shared widely on social media, promotes a project titled The Last Wun and describes the Atlanta rapper as “The one they counted out.” Gunna has not confirmed the campaign, and Netflix has not issued a public statement. Still, the image was enough to reignite conversation about where his career stands now. The rumored film appears to take its name from The Last Wun, his sixth studio album, released in August as his final project under YSL Records. That record, which included collaborations with Offset, Burna Boy, Wizkid, Nechie, and Asake, arrived during a period of intense scrutiny surrounding the YSL RICO case. It was a moment that marked both an ending and a recalibration. A documentary bearing the same title would suggest a closer look at that transition. Talk of a film project has circulated before. Last fall, reports indicated that Gunna held a private screening in New York City for a documentary, though few details emerged at the time. The possibility of a broader release has now prompted renewed interest from fans, some of whom see the project as an opportunity for clarity. Online reactions ranged from celebratory to curious, with one user writing, “Finally. He’s making deals for fun now. He’s for that bag fr,” and another adding, “It’s about damn time, I’ve been waiting for this!!!!!” Gunna announces his “The Last Wun” documentary coming soon to Netflix. pic.twitter.com/LG8wLfoXkM — Rap Alert (@rapalert6) February 17, 2026 Fractures, Forgiveness and a Future in Question Others speculated about whether the film might address lingering allegations that have shadowed the rapper since his plea deal. “NO WAYYYYY he clearing up the snitch allegations,” one post read. Gunna has largely avoided public back-and-forth on the matter, choosing instead to let his music speak. A documentary format could offer a more deliberate account, should he decide to confront those narratives directly. The timing is notable given the unresolved tension between Gunna and Young Thug, once close collaborators. In a September appearance on the Its Up There podcast, Young Thug spoke candidly about the strain. “It ain’t even about not f*cking with you because I want him to just understand why I feel like it shouldn’t happen again because I’m not gonna be able to look at you the same no matter what,” he said. “We can get a trillion dollars together, I’m still not gonna be able to look at you the way I looked at you before we went to jail. We love each other, we’re just going our own ways. Sometimes you do that.” Other artists have publicly encouraged reconciliation. In a post on X, 21 Savage urged the two to repair their relationship, writing, “Yall ns fix that sht yall love each other na you knew gunna wasn’t no gangster when he told the first time and we swept it under the rug for you you know he wasn’t tryna leave you to hang na fck the streets we ain’t get sht but trauma from that sht.” Whether The Last Wun ultimately becomes a vehicle for reflection, explanation, or simple documentation of a turbulent period, it arrives at a moment when Gunna’s story feels unfinished—and closely watched.

Ja Rule appears to be moving on from the viral interaction he had with G-Unit affiliates Tony Yayo and Uncle Murda on a plane. TMZ recently caught up with the rapper to address the public apology he made following the incident. According to Ja, it was the right thing to do, and he has no regrets. “I’m a grown man,” he says. However, when asked if he would settle his differences with 50 Cent and G-Unit, he made it clear that it won’t be happening anytime soon. While Ja believes that the two may never be friends, they also don’t have to antagonize one another. “Sometimes in life people have enemies, and that’s okay,” he says. “But we also don’t have to be at war.” The rapper also addressed the incident on the TODAY show. In Ja’s opinion, “nothing really happened” between him, Tonay Yayo, and Uncle Murda. Despite his shrugging off the incident, he did note that it was a teaching moment for his sons on how to handle conflict. Ja Rule reacts to being labeled ‘soft’ for apologizing about the plane incident and taking the high road with 50 Cent & his G-Unit crew (including Tony Yayo): ‘I don’t gotta be at war. I’m a grown man—I’m almost 50 years old.’ pic.twitter.com/JUcw9t9gqK — Rain Drops Media (@Raindropsmedia1) February 18, 2026 “I live by a code,” Ja Rule Says “There’s a responsibility that we have to be gentlemen. I live by a code. I call it the gentleman’s code. But I’m also raising young men. So you have to let them know that there’s no room for disrespect, but also that there’s a way to carry yourself. So two things can be true. Disrespect is not tolerated, but there is a way you carry yourself in certain spaces,” Ja says. Last week, following his run-in with Tony Yayo and Uncle Murda, Ja Rule issued a public apology to his friends and family. “I’m not proud of my behavior, it’s goofy to me,” Ja wrote in an Instagram post shared on Thursday (Feb.12). The rapper admits he wished the video wasn’t circulating online and that it depicts him being out of character. “I’m a grown man about to be a grandfather, and I wish that video of me wasn’t out there either,” he continued.”I don’t like people taking me out of my character, so for that, I apologize to my wife, family, fans, business, and investment partners.

Comedian and entrepreneur B. Simone is speaking openly about the precarious nature of fame and fortune, and the detrimental cost of backlash in the social media era. In a recent interview with Earn Your Leisure, she described a dramatic swing in income following public backlash online. At her peak, B. Simone reportedly earned $1 million in a single month. The following month, she brought in just $10,000. “I made $10,000 the very next month. Why? Because I was canceled on social media,” she said. “So I went from a million-dollar month to a 10,000. Do you… I don’t… what percent drop is that? We are in the red.” Though she laughed during the interview, the seriousness of the situation was clear. B. Simone recent years have been plagued with controversy, including “trillion dollars or minutes with Jesus” comment and revealing she doesn’t shower daily. B. Simone stressed that followers do not automatically translate into revenue. A sizable online audience cannot guarantee financial stability, as consumer support often proves unpredictable. “Followers don’t equate money, and you can be here one day, and the consumer is so episodic,” she explained. “One day they’re like, oh, well, she… yesterday you loved the book.” B. Simone Says She’s Gone From Making Millions To 10K Monthly Due To Backlash Her experience highlights the risks of entrepreneurship in the digital age. Public attention can spike suddenly and vanish just as quickly. For creators whose brands rely on online presence, these fluctuations carry real financial and emotional consequences. Yet B. Simone framed the ordeal as a lesson rather than a defeat. She emphasized that the volatility of social media is part of the journey and a risk every entrepreneur must accept. “It’s simply the risk you take as an entrepreneur,” she said. By sharing her story, B. Simone offers a rare look into the instability behind internet-driven success. She illustrates that resilience, adaptability, and perspective are as vital as virality in sustaining a career. Her experience serves as a reminder that digital fame can deliver fortune—but it can also disappear overnight, leaving creators to navigate its unpredictability with grit and strategy.

Tyra Baks has apologized for not protecting a former contestant on America’s Next Top Model who claimed she was sexually harassed on set. ​Keenyah Hill alleged sexual harassment on ‘ANTM’ during a cycle 4 photo shoot in South Africa. Hill alleged that Bertini Heumegni was “very aggressively hitting on her.” She even told producers she was uncomfortable. The incident was captured on film and broadcast as part of the episode. ​In the Netflix documentary ‘Reality Check,” Banks explained how she wished she had intervened on behalf of Hill. ​“I was trying to empower her with the information that I had,” Banks said. “I felt like that was empowering her based on the information I had. And I thought that was the best advice, but it should have been, ‘Stop,’ down. And that’s what would happen today.” She adds, “We all now understand the protections that women need. So I say to Keenyah, boo boo, I am so sorry. None of us knew. Network executives didn’t know, and I did the best that I could at that time. But she deserved more. She did.” SEXUAL HARRASSMENT WAS A PART OF THE BUSINESS Nigel Barker, a photographer and former male model, who was a part of Hill’s episode, said that those situations come with the territory. “Some of those things are also kind of a reality of the world, unfortunately. In the fashion industry, there’s always been a lot of issues with, you know, sort of harassment. In any shape or way, whether you’re a male or female model,” said Barker. “And not everyone is going to handle the same situation in the same way,” he continued. “But you as an individual should be able to stand up for yourself and say, ‘Hey, no, this isn’t working.” Or figure it out and get the job done. There were people — cameras — everywhere! Banks, judges Barker, Jay Manuel, and Miss J. Alexander, alongside producer Ken Mok, all appear in the docuseries.

Comedian Faizon Love has expressed interest in boxing mogul 50 Cent for charity, and to settle their differences, escalating a social media feud into potential real-life action. In a video posted online, Love challenged the Queens rapper directly, dismissing his memes as tired. “Curtis Jackson, this has been cute and fun, but these memes is corny now,” Love said, using 50 Cent’s birth name. “Have you ever been in a fight? That would be interesting to really pull up in a ring and get it in. You’ve been involved in boxing before. I know some boxers. I say let’s just pull up to a ring and get it, if you’re really mad.” View this post on Instagram The comedian framed the challenge as more than a joke, suggesting a sanctioned boxing match as a way to settle the tension. His callout quickly spread across social media, sparking speculation about a celebrity boxing event. 50 Cent responded hours later with humor rather than gloves. He shared an edited clip from the 1991 crime classic New Jack City, casting himself as Nino Brown and inserting Love into a humiliating scene. Faizon Love Wants To Face Off Against 50 Cent In Charity Boxing Match “New jack city was the bomb right…yall seen him start with me for no reason. LOL,” he wrote in the caption. The exchange adds another chapter to 50 Cent’s history of public feuds, in which he often uses viral clips and social media wit to respond to critics. Love, meanwhile, seems eager to move past online taunts and test the tension in the ring. No promoters have confirmed a potential fight, and neither camp has announced official negotiations. For now, the drama plays out online, where celebrity boxing hype thrives. Whether the bout ever happens remains uncertain, but the back-and-forth already provides fresh headlines in hip-hop’s culture of confrontation and spectacle.
