Rick Ross and Tory Lanez Continue Social Media Back and Forth

If you have been keeping up with the media, then you are aware that rappers Rick Ross and Tory Lanez have been in a little back and forth, following the Meg thee Stallion shooting incident. After the shooting it was clear that Rick Ross supported Meg the Stallion, so much so that he began to throw jabs at Tory Lanez, calling him a little boy that needed to boss up. Ross also mentioned that Lanez’s decision to release his album on the day that the verdict was released for ex-officer Brett Hankison, one of the cops involved in killing Breonna Taylor, was a poor decision.

Although Tory’s back was against the wall, Tory responded to Rick Ross with this tweet. “I respect u 2 much as a black man to disrespect you in these times,however, I went out and marched 9 DAYS STRAIT for Breonna Taylor ..IN YOUR CITY …I didn’t see the “boss” out there once ?…also stop tagging your endorsements in post about her . It’s a poor decision.”

The back and forth didn’t stop there, Ross has been trolling Tory, tagging the singer in videos of smart cars saying that he will buy one for Tory. “Sounds like you buying time big fella,” Tory responded. “I live down the block from u. Just gimme da car already. And please don’t get no lemon pepper on my seats brotherman…”

Will Rick Ross really gift Tory with that smart car?

Tiffany Haddish’s African Grocery Store Visit Sparks Debate, Is She a Trailblazer or Out of Touch?

Tiffany Haddish is at the center of controversy after a video of her visit to a grocery store in Zimbabwe went viral. In the clip, Haddish marvels at the store’s size and the availability of items like sugar cane and organic strawberries, which she seemed to find surprising.

The reaction from viewers has been mixed. Some applauded her for challenging stereotypes about Africa, while others mocked her for acting as if the continent lacked modern amenities. One user on X quipped, “Tiffany Haddish, the first woman to discover a grocery store in Africa,” while another expressed confusion over her reaction, questioning why she seemed surprised by the store’s offerings.

In response to the backlash, Haddish took to X to clarify her intentions. She emphasized that her goal was to “demystify” Africa and encourage more Black Americans to visit.

This incident follows another controversial trip earlier this year, when Haddish visited Israel amid ongoing conflicts, a move that drew criticism for its insensitivity. Despite the recent backlash, Haddish remains active, with her latest project being the memoir I Curse You With Joy, which has garnered positive reviews for its candidness.

In an era where public figures must tread carefully, it seems Haddish’s words continue to spark debate, whether she’s on a global adventure or sharing her personal experiences.
