Joe Biden Debuts Battle Rap Ad With DNA & Charlie Clips

With only a few weeks left to decide one of the most important elections in our history, Joe Biden is heading to new means to try and encourage people to vote. 

Never before in history have we seen a Presidential candidate use battle rap to try and sway voters their way but, today, Biden is doing just that, explaining some of his campaign’s core values by staging a battle between respected emcees DNA and Charlie Clips.

Teaming up with the Ultimate Rap League, the Biden-Harris campaign has officially launched their new video advertisement, which shows DNA and Charlie Clips discussing why the election is so important, and why Biden is the right person to take over the job. 

DNA attempts to convince Charlie Clips on why he needs to cast his vote in the 2020 election, battle rapping and getting his point across. As XXL points out, the first scene takes place at a basketball court near Howard University, while the second scene is filmed just feet away from the White House.

“So, you think because you brought me here that I’m just supposed to confide in Biden?/What about the innocent Blacks that get snatched out of their car just for riding?/We don’t even ask for much/All we do is ask for respect/Before they did what they did to George Floyd/This country had they foot on our necks/Now, do you understand why I’m upset?” raps Clips as he tries to explain why he’s not planning on voting.

DNA countered: “I feel you/’Cause every time we throw the system a uppercut, all they give us in return is low blows/But Biden and Harris got a plan to outlaw the chokehold/It’s inspiring/Donald Trump is The Apprentice/But now it’s our turn to do the firing.”

Rubi Rose Comes Clean About Druski Romance and Why She Lied

Honk Magazine

After months of rumors and mixed messages, Rubi Rose has finally cleared up the confusion about her relationship with comedian Druski. During a live stream with Adin Ross, Rubi admitted that her romance with Druski was real, despite her earlier claims that it was just a publicity stunt. Her reason for saying that? She was heartbroken. In her candid moment on the stream, Rubi said, “Okay, something embarrassing that I’ve never told anybody. Me and Dru were really in a relationship, and I said it was PR because he pissed me the f**k off and hurt my feelings.” This surprising admission showed that her initial denial was more about protecting her heart than trying to generate buzz.

For fans who had been following their relationship, this news ends the back-and-forth. Rubi and Druski started sparking dating rumors in April 2024, their fun chemistry getting everyone talking. But by July, they had officially broken up, with Rubi claiming their relationship was just for the media’s attention. Druski, however, had always insisted that their connection was real, a point Rubi now agrees with. Looking back, Rubi reflected on her previous actions, admitting, “That was really lame of me and embarrassing. I shouldn’t have said that. But it was, like, I had to stand on it.” This moment of honesty gives fans a glimpse into celebrities’ pressures regarding love and public perception.

And we’re friends and we’re cool still,” she shared, mentioning that they’ve known each other since high school. While the ups and downs of their relationship made for interesting headlines, Rubi’s honesty provides a refreshing look at the challenges of being in the spotlight. Whether it was love or just a lesson learned, it’s clear that Rubi Rose is embracing her reality and moving forward, regardless of what others say.

Lil Scrappy Fires Back at Bambi’s “Eleven” Diss with Laughter and Shade

Honk Magazine

If anyone thought that Lil Scrappy and Bambi were going to resolve their issues quietly after their messy breakup, they were in for a surprise. The former couple has been going back and forth publicly for months, and Bambi has taken it to the next level with her new diss track called “Eleven.” In the song, she doesn’t hold back, taking jabs at Scrappy’s money problems, his children from different relationships, and even throwing shade at her rivals from the show Love & Hip Hop. However, Scrappy seems unfazed by it all, laughing off her claims.

Scrappy took to social media to respond, smirking as he called out Bambi for allegedly lying about her age and exaggerating her statements in “Eleven.” He pointed out that if he was as broke as she claims, he wouldn’t be able to keep up with his child support payments. It’s a classic comeback of “If I’m struggling, how am I still paying you?” With that, Scrappy managed to throw some shade right back at her. Their conflict isn’t only about the song; it also affects their personal lives and even Scrappy’s other relationships.

Recently, his ex-girlfriend, Erica Dixon, called out his mother, Momma Dee, for showing up to a baby shower without a paternity test for the baby involved. That baby, born to hairstylist Shakira Hardy, adds another layer to the already complicated situation in Scrappy’s life. Through all this chaos, Scrappy appears calm, or at least that’s how he’s presenting himself to the public. His response to “Eleven” was less about what Bambi said and more about poking fun at her claims. Whether he’s just trying to cope with the situation or genuinely moving on, this drama isn’t coming to an end anytime soon.
