Meek Mill Shows Support For Jada Pinkett-Smith Admist August Alsina Scandal
Meek Mill has had his fair share of Twitter commentary as of late, exchanging words with the likes of DJ Akademiks, Tekashi 6ix9ine, 50 Cent, and more. However, this time around the Philadelphia-bred emcee is using his social media platform for good in support of the Smith family’s recent revelation that Jada Pinkett-Smith shared an intimate relationship with R&B artist August Alsina during an intense episode of her coveted Red Table Talk Facebook show. While Jada Pinkett had originally denied Alsina’s allegations that the two had been romantically involved, the 48-year-old actress/turned talk show host shared a moment of vulnerability and transparency alongside her husband, Will Smith, revealing that she and Alsina’s relationship exceeded mentorship while she and Will were temporarily separated.

With the masses on the edge of their seat during Jada’s big reveal, Meek Mill had also tuned into the debacle but had a surprisingly mature response to the scandal Tweeting,
“Jada being a woman and being real about her actions was refreshing to see a woman do in that type of situation!”
Unfortunately, the “Other Side of America” rapper’s mentions didn’t take to kindly to his comments as his mentions were left in shambles by his “fellowship.” Check out some of the responses to his Tweet below.
Completely unbothered the REFORM Alliance board member then went on Retweet Joie Manda’s statement regarding Alsina and Jada’s chatty patty catastrophe, which plainly reads, “No Will Smith slander,” before officially retiring his Twitter fingers for the evening.
Years ago, we probably wouldn’t have witnessed this level of growth from Meek Mill, but as the culture has been able to witness his maturation in real-time, maybe the 33-year-old has turned a new leaf and is ready for a relationship of Will and Jada’s magnitude. Only time will tell. Check out Meek Mill’s original Tweet in support of Jada Pinkett-Smith’s announcement in the post provided below.

Queen Bey – Beyoncé Shatters Records With Her Unprecedented 2025 Grammy Nominations
Beyoncé is once again making headlines. After dominating the music scene, blazing through a record-breaking “Renaissance” tour, and launching a successful whiskey brand, SirDavis, weren’t enough, she’s now rewriting history at the Grammy Awards. In March, she took the world by storm with her eighth studio album release, COWBOY CARTER, which continues to echo across the charts. This year, the superstar has earned a stunning 11 Grammy nominations, setting a new record as the female artist who has ever received the most nominations in a single year. Once again, Beyoncé has firmly redefined what it means to be a trailblazer in the music industry, proving there are no limits to what she can achieve.
The 11 nods mark a new personal best for Beyoncé, who previously shared the long-standing record with Lauryn Hill at 10 nominations apiece. Hill achieved the feat in 1999, and Beyoncé first met that mark in 2010. The sheer range speaks volumes about her artistic versatility, relentless ambition, and unmatched status in the music industry. But with 2025 nominations, Beyoncé genuinely shines brightly in major categories like Record of the Year, Album of the Year, and Best Pop Solo Performance. Queen Bey’s fierce presence reinforces her iconic status in music in a highly competitive Grammy race that includes powerhouses like Taylor Swift, Kendrick Lamar, and Billie Eilish.
This news arrives at an exciting time amidst swirling controversy. Despite COWBOY CARTER’s undeniable genre-bending success and Beyoncé’s well-received pivot into country influences, she was left out this year at the Country Music Awards and the People’s Choice Country Awards. With 17 nominations at the PCCAs, she walked away empty-handed, raising eyebrows across the industry. While Beyoncé soars on the Grammy stage, she’s faced notable snubs in the country music realm. A legend of the genre, Dolly Parton even commented on the snub in an interview with Variety, reflecting, “There’s so many wonderful country artists that, I guess probably are in the country music field, they probably thought, well, we can’t really leave out some of the ones that spend their whole life doing that.”
But for Beyoncé, this year’s Grammy nods are more than a consolation prize; they validate her impact. As she heads into Grammy season with 11 nominations, it’s clear that while the country music world might still be playing catch-up, the Grammys recognize Beyoncé’s immense talent. For enthusiasts and music lovers globally, one thing is sure: Beyoncé isn’t just making history. She’s actively reshaping it. Her work demonstrates that there are no limits within her sphere and that records are not intended to endure; instead, they are designed to be rewritten. Consequently, according to her vision and standards, she possesses the ability and intent to continue influencing the music industry.

50 Cent’s Legacy “Candy Shop” Video Racks Up 1-Billion Views on YouTube
In a year filled with achievements and a music scene where videos come and go, 50 Cent’s “Candy Shop” has cemented a lasting legacy that many artists aspire to. Nearly 20 years after its release, the iconic music video features a captivating Olivia and catchy lyrics that people can’t help but remember, and it has reached an impressive 1 billion views on YouTube. This milestone places “Candy Shop” alongside his hit “In Da Club,” which also crossed the billion-view mark earlier, highlighting 50 Cent’s enduring popularity.
Released in 2005 as part of his album “The Massacre,” “Candy Shop“ quickly took the world by storm, spending nine weeks at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The song became famous for its mix of daring lyrics, an infectious beat, and a sultry video that everyone was talking about. It featured appearances from artists like Lil Scrappy, Young Buck, and Lloyd Banks, showcasing the G-Unit crew. Now that the song has hit 1 billion views, it’s evident that nostalgia and great music keep fans returning for more.
This milestone comes as 50 Cent prepares for his first-ever residency in Las Vegas, which is set to begin next month. He’s excited about this new venture and told fans, “My first Vegas residency is going to be an experience; you don’t wanna miss this!” He will be performing six exclusive shows at Planet Hollywood from December 27 to January 4, and he even teased a special New Year’s Eve celebration featuring his own Sire Spirits, making it a highly anticipated event for fans.
While fans are eager for new music, 50 Cent’s focus has shifted slightly. At a recent event, he shared, “I have to tap into the st*pid side of me to write the right thing,” explaining that today’s music landscape doesn’t always inspire him. With so many projects on the go, including TV shows and business endeavors, it’s clear that 50 Cent is building his legacy far beyond just music, and this latest achievement is a testament to his impact on different generations.
