Flo Rida’s Baby’s Mom Wants Him Punished For Ignoring Support For Sick Child
Flo Rida and the mother of his toddler son, Alexis Adams, will once again have to come to terms in regards to child support expenses for the three-year-old they share together. Unfortunately, the two have shared quite the tumultuous past together that has been made public nearly every step of the way since the conception of their child, Zohar Dillard. Last year, the Carol City-bred emcee gave up complete custody of his son, was ordered to $9,000 per month in child support, and even was publicly criticized for referring to his son as an “evil f*cking child.” Now, the 40-year-old hip-hop artist is finding himself in the midst of more conflict with Adams after court documents obtained by Bossip have revealed that she wants Flo Rida strictly punished for failing to pay for their child’s expenses which have severely affected his education and overall health.

According to the court documents filed by Adams, the “Sweet Sensation” rapper has failed to pay court-mandated child support, Zohar’s tuition, and medical insurance to which he is legally required to do under the terms of their custody and support order. Since his birth, Zohar has battled with autism which has critically increased his need for specialized educational needs and health requirements.
Unfortunately, with Flo Rida’s inability to make his support payments on time, Zohar health insurance has lapsed and his tuition was not paid for at all this past school year. At the moment, Zohar will not be able to return to private school until last year’s tuition payments are paid in full which has resulted in the toddler attending public school where his behavior/conduct has visibly declined.
In Adams’ official statement she claims that she has tried to reason with the Miami-based rapper but has failed to reach an agreement with Flo or his legal representation. If Flo Rida fails to appear in court in response to Adams’ legal motion, he could be facing prison time for contempt of court.
With Flo Rida’s most recent philanthropic endeavor coming in the form of free COVID-19 testing for Florida residents, the culture is hoping that the multi-platinum artist will do right by his seed and the mother of his child.
Check out one of Flo Rida’s latest Instagram posts asking his followers to do all they can to avoid contracting and spreading the coronavirus in the video provided below.

Meek Mill Draws Mixed Reactions With Drill Take on Nico & Vinz’s “Am I Wrong”
Meek Mill has released a couple of songs that leaked online recently, giving fans a proper way to hear the tracks after they popped up over the weekend. “Philly Heathens” has been praised for its attention to street culture and youth affected by violence, but his other new album, “Am I Wrong,” has received a much more divided response.
“Philly Heathens” has been praised for its lyrics about street culture and the young people who get caught up in violence. “Am I Wrong,” however, takes a vastly different approach, remixing the song of the same name by Nico & Vinz as a drill centric interpolation.
“Am I Wrong” is now 12 years old, and its connection to the EDM sound of the time makes it especially recognizable to those who grew up with it. So Meek’s take is built on a familiar musical reference, but the response has been far from universally complimentary. A lot of the criticism has been directed at the hook. The production has also been called dated, but the track was leaked, which may explain its sound. But the strongest reactions have focused on Meek’s chorus vocals.

Some of the responses have been good, though. Some listeners felt the track was a throwback to the blog era, while others thought the criticism targeted almost entirely the hook, not the song as a whole. One Reddit commenter wrote that the track was good, but the chorus was bad, suggesting that Meek’s performance on the rest of the song was better than the reception to the hook may suggest.
The different reactions demonstrate the contrast between Meek’s two new leaks. “Philly Heathens” has resonated with audiences for its subject matter, while “Am I Wrong” has sparked discussion due to its interpolation and vocal approach.
Both songs are now officially available on YouTube so that fans can decide for themselves. The response to “Am I Wrong” shows how difficult it is to reinterpret a well known song, especially when a recognizable hook becomes the centerpiece of the new version

Drake Joins Karol G in Houston for First Live Performance of “Ahi”
Drake made a surprise appearance in Houston this weekend, joining Karol G on stage for the first-ever live performance of their collaboration, “Ahi.”
The surprise appearance took place during Karol G’s show in Houston, where Drake jumped out from the bottom of the stage to perform the song with her. “Ahi” is the latest from Karol G’s project No Me Arrepiento de Sentir Tanto, and the Houston show marked the first time the pair had performed the collaboration together on stage.
Drake made his entrance to a loud reception from the crowd. The rapper popped out from under the stage, bowed to Karol G, hugged her, and launched into their collaboration. With “Ahi,” the performance was not over. Drake stayed on stage and carried on with the set, performing “Janice STFU” and “One Dance” and giving the Houston crowd a long set from the Canadian rapper.
The collaboration also sparked speculation about Drake’s upcoming music. A rumor started that Karol G was one of the collaborators on the project, along with Molly Santana and Future, days before ICEMAN is expected to drop. Future and Molly Santana were among the names on the rumored list, and Future ended up on “Run To Atlanta.”

Drake’s Houston appearance comes as he continues to promote music outside the traditional album release cycle. He released FOMO, a visual YouTube project featuring visuals for several songs from Habibti and Maid Of Honor nearly two weeks ago. The project also featured a couple of unreleased songs, including new material with Yeat and new unreleased music with Don Toliver.
Drake and Don Toliver have also dropped a remix of Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas.” The remix has recently sparked speculation about the artists after re uploaded visuals allegedly erased all footage of Langley.
But the Houston show shifted the focus back to Drake and Karol G. The surprise appearance turned the stop into the first live showcase of “Ahi” for the audience, while Drake’s renditions of “Janice STFU” and “One Dance” extended his surprise time onstage. It also gave fans their first chance to see the two artists perform their collaboration together, adding a live chapter to the release of “Ahi. “
