50 Cent Clashes with Keith Sweat Over Virtual Appearance, Blames Diddy’s NYC Key for the Snub

50 Cent

In just a couple of weeks, 50 Cent‘s Humor & Harmony Weekend will light up Shreveport, Louisiana, promising a star-studded lineup that includes the legendary Keith Sweat. However, a storm is brewing as Sweat recently suggested he might attend the event virtually via Zoom, a move that has 50 Cent fuming.

Taking to Instagram, 50 Cent didn’t hold back, accusing Sweat of “tripping” for not planning to show up in person. The rapper believes Sweat’s hesitation is due to an important event in New York City on August 3, where Sweat is set to receive the Entertainer’s Key to NYC. The key, previously held by Diddy, was revoked after footage of him assaulting Cassie surfaced online.

“This [ninja] @keithsweat is tripping,” 50 Cent captioned his post. “He getting Diddy’s Key to the city Aug’s 3 They blocking off streets in Harlem for him. Now if he don’t show up in Shreveport, we ain’t f*cking with him no more. @bransoncognac @lecheminduroi.”

Sweat didn’t take long to respond, referencing 50 Cent’s 1999 track “How to Rob,” where he jokes about robbing the R&B singer. “Hey Fif I gotta respond to you I’m definitely not coming to Shreveport now,” Sweat wrote. “I just remember you said this about me back in the day. I’ll see y’all in NYC Aug 3rd when I get the key to the city. You need to be there with me and everything is squashed.”

But 50 Cent wasn’t backing down. “Oh no, I was tripping when I wrote that, yo a** better be in Shreveport [ninja],” he fired back. “We need that grown and sexy sh*t ! @keithsweat stop playing get your a** on da jet man.”

Lisa Boostani creates a mesmerizing tidal realm in “Ocean”

Lisa Boostani

Lisa Boostani’s “Ocean” takes you deep into a sensory world where body, spirit, and myth come together, beyond the surface of genre. Boostani makes a soundscape that is both ethereal and deeply human by combining the broad essence of psychedelic pop with the strong appeal of alternative rock.

Her voice rises as if it is coming from deep within her, shaped by emotion rather than action. She intentionally channels the intangible, turning weakness into strength rather than a source of pain, and “Ocean” tells people to get involved in this inner world, not just watch it. This release is an integral part of her first EP, “One,” which will come out in March 2026 and is based on love, sensuality, and unity.

If “Ocean” is any indication, the EP will show sensuality not as something pretty, but as a kind of spiritual intelligence, a way to know yourself by connecting with others. The song’s textures and structure have an aquatic quality, moving between clarity and delirium, rhythm and freedom. Its emotional focus is on immersion instead of resolution.

The striking quality of “Ocean” is the blend of the mystical worlds. Boostani understands that strength often shows up as gentleness and that deep feelings are better expressed through frequencies than words. She wants people to see consciousness as immediacy, sensation as truth, and openness as an undeniable strength.

NOAH. captures the unspoken signals in enchanting R&B track “That’s Bless”

NOAH.

“That’s Bless” captures the unspoken late-night message, the smile that was exchanged from afar, and the feeling you sense but are afraid to say. NOAH. offers a song with a smoky R&B feel and lyrics that capture unspoken tension, firmly in the realm of emotional ambiguity, where connection is clear but not defined.

This piece concerns the subtle discomfort of mixed signals and quiet longings, when looks say more than words ever could. NOAH. handles the theme with restraint, letting the chemistry simmer rather than explode. NOAH.’s delivery shows a confident gentleness, recognizing that some feelings don’t need strict definitions to be real.

In “That’s Bless,” he captures the essence of connection and the compelling allure that endures, even when both parties pretend it is not there. The composition is based on real-life events, and it acknowledges that specific attachments endure in the heart long after one has persuaded oneself of having progressed.

“That’s Bless” is at the crossroads of closeness and distance, clarity and confusion. The song doesn’t resolve the tension it talks about, and that’s what makes it so powerful. It sums up the connection we say we don’t want but keep coming back to in memory, rhythm, and pulse.
