Rihanna’s dance instructor circulates a Drake meme amidst criticism over “Fear of Heights”

Rihanna's dance instructor circulates a Drake meme amidst criticism over "Fear of Heights".

Drake’s new release, “For All The Dogs”, has sparked controversy, causing a stir among both Nicki Minaj and Rihanna fans. Nicki Minaj’s fans, known as The Barbz, are angry over an apparent deception about a feature from Nicki, while Rihanna’s fan group, the Rihanna Navy, has issues with the song “Fear Of Heights”. This song is interpreted as a veiled insult directed at Rihanna, resulting in Paris Goebel, Rihanna’s primary choreographer, posting a photo of Drake uncomfortably kissing a woman on her Instagram story.

Drake and Rihanna were once close friends and even rumored to be dating intermittently between 2009 and 2018. Drake’s first two number one hits on the Billboard Hot 100 were both features on Rihanna tracks (“What’s My Name?” and “Work”). However, this past relationship seems to be forgotten in light of “Fear Of Heights”, which appears to reference Rihanna’s 2016 album “Anti” multiple times and takes direct shots at Rihanna and her long-time partner A$AP Rocky.

In other news, actor Tyson Beckford has expressed his desire for Rihanna to perform live on “Dancing With The Stars”, even hinting that he might try to make it happen this season. Beckford, who is currently competing in the show’s 32nd season with partner Jenna Johnson, stated that he knows Rihanna’s team.

Recently, an appealing anecdote involving Rihanna surfaced. It was reported that during her pregnancies, she took pleasure in watching marathon sessions of “90 Day Fiancé”. This information was disclosed by Yara Zaya, a cast member of the show. She shared that in February 2021, Rihanna reached out to her to express her admiration for the show and Zaya’s particular narrative.

As for the “Fear Of Heights” controversy, it remains to be seen how it will unfold. Fans are encouraged to share their thoughts in the comments.

Kalpee Honors Heritage and Heart on His Emotion-Rich New EP Dougla Boi

Kalpee

Kalpee is back with Dougla Boi, a beautiful new EP that is both personal and powerful. It gives listeners a close look at the layers of identity, heritage, and emotion that make him who he is. The Trinidad and Tobago artist is confident in his own space, which is rooted in New Calypso and polished with hints of dancehall, R&B, and afrobeats. In this space, genre bends, but emotion leads.

Named after the Trinidadian word for someone of mixed African and Indian heritage, Dougla Boi is honest, proud, and warm about the complexities of culture. Kalpee opens a window into the dualities that define him across six tracks, turning personal truth into universal resonance. The EP is just under 19 minutes long, but every second is carefully planned to take listeners on a journey through courage, joy, healing, and the quiet strength that comes from accepting all parts of yourself.

The first single, “Under,” stands out right away for its calming yet emotionally charged experience. Kalpee’s voice flows over a beat that sounds both new and old, fitting the EP’s theme of bringing cultures together. It’s one of the best examples of how he can mix soft and hard sounds, which is what makes his New Calypso sound so unique.

“Everybody,” which features Full Blown, is another excellent song that has already done very well. It has a happy vibe and an infectious bounce, making it one of the EP’s most replayable songs. “Everybody” captures the spirit of community and shared experience, which is what Kalpee means when he says that identity is not a box but a rhythm.
