Tami Roman is all the way finished with Basketball Wives—but is she all the way done with one of her close friends? That’s the question that fans are asking after the reality star spoke on some of her former castmates.
During an Instagram Live Tami was asked about her relationships with her former castmates from the VH1 show —and she didn’t hold back.
When it comes to Malaysia Pargo, Tami said that they’re still friends on social media.
“Do I still talk to Malaysia? Yes, I talk to Malaysia via Instagram. I feel like I’m talking to you when I like your pictures. It’s like, I see a picture I like or I leave a comment on your picture. That’s me talking to you.”
“There’s no issue with me and Malaysia, “I don’t think there ever was an issue with me and Malaysia, so, ain’t no need to have one now.”
As far as Shaunie O’Neal however, Tami surprisingly said that they don’t speak and wouldn’t expound any further about why. The news is especially shocking considering that Tami and Shaunie have been longtime good girlfriends and Shaunie brought Tami onto Basketball Wives way back in season 2.
“Somebody said how is me and Shaunie. I haven’t talked to Shaunie since I left the show,” said Tami on IG Live. “So that’s how me and Shaunie are.”
OOF!
As pointed out by MadameNoire, Tami’s been hinting towards her strained relationship with Shaunie and said their friendship lacked reciprocity.
“I thought that Shaunie and I were real friends. I think that I put more weight and more value on the friendship than she actually was doing,” she said in May. “From my standpoint, I really loved and respected Shaunie a great deal. And so the last two seasons made me feel like it wasn’t any reciprocity. You gotta acknowledge that and honor it. If people don’t f–k with you like that they just don’t f–k with you. No harm, no foul. But I just realized that it wasn’t that deep for her.”
Shaunie MIGHT have responded on Instagram to Tami letting fans know that they no longer speak. She posted a meme saying;
“Staying quiet doesn’t mean I have nothing to say; it means I don’t think you are ready to hear my thoughts.”
If you were hoping to see Tami and Shaunie hash out their issues on Basketball Wives, you’re unfortunately out of luck.
Tami won’t be there and the cast will reportedly consist of Jackie Christie, Malaysia Pargo, Evelyn Lozada, O.G., Jennifer Williams, and of course, E.P. Shaunie O’Neal herself.

Suge Knight Calls Out Kanye West Over Offensive Comments on Carter Twins

Suge Knight is known for speaking his mind, and in a recent interview on a show called Art of Dialogue, he shared strong opinions about Kanye West’s recent behavior. Kanye, who is often in the spotlight for his controversial actions, made headlines after insulting Jay-Z and Beyoncé’s children in a tweet. Suge found this particularly unacceptable. “I need to talk to Kanye,” Suge said, clearly upset. “We should never disrespect anyone’s kids.” He was disturbed by Kanye calling the Carter twins a hurtful name, emphasizing that this kind of behavior is unacceptable in both hip-hop and society in general.
“You don’t talk about Jay and Beyoncé’s kids and call them names. That’s crossing the line.” For Suge Knight, this isn’t just about one tweet, it’s about a larger issue. He feels that such hurtful comments not only impact the people involved but also reflect poorly on hip-hop and Black culture as a whole. “I expect more from people in hip-hop and our community,” he stated. “We’ve come a long way, and we should stand up for each other, especially when it comes to protecting kids and those who are vulnerable.”
This isn’t the first time Kanye has faced backlash for his controversial remarks, but Suge clarifies that calling out children is where he draws the line. “That’s not funny to me, not at all,” he remarked, suggesting that there should be real consequences for Kanye’s words. “He needs an old-fashioned lesson.” Suge Knight’s comments remind us that, regardless of how famous an artist is, there are still moral limits that shouldn’t be crossed, especially when it comes to children. His call for accountability sends a strong message to Kanye West and anyone else who might think it’s acceptable to attack innocent kids in the hip-hop world.

Lil Durk Makes History as the Most Certified Rapper of 2025

Lil Durk has officially established himself as one of the biggest names in hip-hop. The Chicago-born rapper just broke records by becoming the first hip-hop artist to earn the most certifications from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in 2025. This is a huge milestone in his career, highlighting his influence in music today and his status as one of the all-time greats. Recently, the RIAA announced that Durk achieved 53 new certifications, making him the top hip-hop artist of 2025, and placing him among the top 50 artists ever, with an impressive total of 52.5 million units sold.
This news was shared on social media, confirming that he’s not just popular, but his music truly connects with listeners. Durk has made a name for himself with hit collaborations like “Broadway Girls” featuring Morgan Wallen, “All My Life” with J. Cole, and “3 Headed Goat” alongside Lil Baby and Polo G. His ability to tell real-life stories while also creating catchy melodies has made him a standout artist. These new certifications show that his music has lasting appeal. Fans quickly took to social media to celebrate his achievements, with some eagerly anticipating his next album, saying it will be a huge success.
Others reminisced about how hard he’s worked and how much his popularity has grown, especially during his breakthrough years from 2020 to 2021. However, not everyone is impressed. Some critics have pointed out that his collaboration with country star Morgan Wallen might make his success seem less significant. However, the impressive numbers speak for themselves. Durk’s music has played a key role in shaping hip-hop, and the way he mixes different styles only adds to his talent. From being an underground artist to becoming one of the most recognized rappers in history, Lil Durk’s journey is truly inspiring.
