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.

Seun Kuti & Egypt 80 makes a stand for afrobeat against corruption on latest release Na Dem feat. Tom Morello.
Seun Kuti & Egypt 80 deliver a powerful afrobeat statement with “Na Dem,” Featuring Tom Morello and produced by Femi Koleoso. The track has been a fan favourite even before its official release, and comes with the unmistakable spirit of protest, truth-telling, and social accountability that have long characterized Afrobeat’s most impactful moments.
The song’s heart is a direct challenge to corruption and the abuse of power. Instead of singling out one profession or institution for its critique, “Na Dem” identifies a larger culture of dishonesty, targeting bad lawyers, bad doctors, bad politicians, and anyone who would sell their integrity for personal gain. The message is sharp and uncompromising and delivered with the urgency that has become a hallmark of Seun Kuti’s artistry.
The inclusion of Tom Morello adds another level of intensity to the record. His presence adds to the song’s rebellious energy, creating a powerful intersection between the rhythmic activism of Afrobeat and the confrontational edge of rock. The result of the collaboration is a track that is both timeless and of the moment.
The song’s dedication to principle is what rings true. The moral center of the record is Seun’s statement that he would never prostitute his conscience for money. It turns “Na Dem” from a critique into a declaration of personal values, responsibility, and resistance.

Marsha Bartenetti reinvents in her own style “New York Minute”
Marsha Bartenetti’s latest release, “New York Minute,” written by Don Henley, Danny Kortchmar, and Jai Winding, offers emotional depth, turning a timeless look at life’s fragility into a reflective, cinematic journey. Stephan Oberhoff’s arrangement perfectly frames Bartenetti’s voice, and Kevin Bate’s expressive cello adds a warm resonance that makes the track feel like a movie.
The way each instrument sounds makes it feel planned, which lets the listener stay in the fleeting moments the song so beautifully describes. Bartenetti’s singing is the best part of the song. She shows an openness that feels real, as if she has lost something and still fully embraces love and presence with complete honesty. Her choice of words and small changes in tone make the lyrics feel even closer.
“New York Minute,” is a new version that pays tribute to the original while showcasing Bartenetti’s own style. The movie-like instruments and heartfelt vocals make the song feel both personal and universal. It makes us think about how hard it is to let go and hold on.
