Yung Miami is far from letting this one go. The City Girls star jumped back on X with another round of posts, making it clear she’s still heated about Tyla’s new single “Chanel.” Miami insists that the South African singer took inspiration from a track she previewed long before Tyla’s release. According to Miami, her unreleased song “Take Me to Chanel” was played privately for Tyla. Shortly after, Tyla dropped her own version of a Chanel-themed record, complete with the hook “Put me in Chanel.” That timing didn’t sit right with Miami, who told her followers, “This girl really ran off with my song and ion know how to feel about it mind you I played this song for this girl. Like…. B*tch I’m confused! Take me to Chanel > put me in Chanel.” Get in the car we’re going to CHANEL!!! — Yung Miami (@YungMiami305) October 24, 2025 As Tyla’s “CHANEL” video hit streaming platforms Friday, Miami reignited the conversation with a series of tweets. Fans flooded her mentions with comments and jokes about the situation, and one even suggested she change her song title. “Sista @YungMiami305 we can’t do Take Me To Balenciaga tho?” the fan wrote. Miami quickly shot that down, replying, “No, I’m still taking y’all to Chanel! #YM1.” Even though the drama has stirred plenty of buzz online, Miami’s confidence in her version hasn’t wavered. She’s standing on her claim that the concept was hers first and plans to prove it when she drops the track herself. Meanwhile, Tyla has yet to respond publicly to the accusations, focusing instead on promoting her latest release. Now that both artists are heading to “Chanel” in their own way, fans are waiting to see whose version will dominate. One thing is certain: Yung Miami isn’t done talking about it anytime soon.

In a new interview with Extra TV, 50 Cent shared what pop artist he’s been waiting to work with, and the answer might shock you: Taylor Swift. Despite being in retirement, 50 Cent says he’d love nothing more than to collaborate with the singer. That said, he understands the 35-year-old pop sensation is quite busy these days. “You got to ask her because you know how big Taylor Swift is right now? She has to have a record that sounds like it might sound good with 50,” he told the outlet. Swift, who recently dropped off her latest album, The Life of A Showgirl, had name-dropped the rapper on the track, “Ruin the Friendship.” The song appears to be inspired by an unrequited relationship between friends in high school. “Wilted corsage dangles from my wrist/Over his shoulder, I catch a glimpse,” Swift sings. “And see (mm-mm), You lookin’ at me/And it was not, an invitation/ But as the 50 Cent song played (song played)/ Should’ve kissed you anyway (anyway).” Swift named-dropped 50 Cent on her latest album, ‘The Life of A Showgirl’ “It really is cool because when she makes the reference, it’s to what was going on in culture at that time. The music, you couldn’t miss it,” he told Extra. “What she was making reference to is the period that no one was more prominent in music at that point.” Earlier this month, he boasted about the shout-out on social media, writing, “@taylorswift sh*t is popping right now. She shout me out, she don’t shout you out. LOL. THIS IS FOR BIG TIMERS ONLY! I’m the only shout out on the whole album.” Fif also revealed that he’s a big fan of the singer’s fiancée, NFL star Travis Kelce. “I like her boyfriend, too. I like the team, I like KC,” he said. “I do [like them together]. I like it a lot better than the last thing he had going on. It’s a lot better.”

During a recent TikTok live, Megan Thee Stallion revealed that the third installment of her MEGAN series is on the way. The Houston native noted that she’s not only making this project for the Hotties, but for her haters as well. “I’m bout to give the hotties what they’re asking for. I’m bout to give the notties what they’re looking for.” The comment section was immediately sent into a frenzy. That said, the rapper has not yet revealed an official release date. The “Whenever” rapper did note, however, that there could be a tour in the works for 2026. Megan’s last project, Act 2, worked as a deluxe version of her MEGAN album, which was released in June 2024. Guest appearances on the project included Flo Milli, Twice, Spiritbox, and RM of BTS. Upon its release, it debuted at number three on the US Billboard 200, selling nearly 64,000 units. To promote the project the rapper embarked on her first headlining concert, The Hot Girl Summer Tour.

Nevertheless, the track, which samples Total’s 1996 hit “Kissing You,” debuted at No.1 on the iTunes chart. The song appears to be inspired by Megan’s new beau, NBA star Klay Thompson. Many fans praised “Lover Girl” for its production and appreciated Megan’s ability to show a softer, more romantic side. “Megan Thee Stallion went from: “Handle me, who gon handle me?” To: “I had to lock in when I found out he can handle me.”EXACTLYYYYYYYYYYYYY this!! @theestallion #lovergirl,” one X (formerly Twitter user wrote. On the other hand, some fans found the song’s lyrics repetitive and uninspired.  “I was reallllllllly hoping #LoverGirl wouldn’t do what I THOUGHT it would, which is not take off. It’s a cute song, but I needed that beat to JUMP so I could BOP, and it didn’t,” one person wrote. “I’m so disappointed.”

The come-up story of Kevin Durant will soon be headed to your living room.  Netflix is diving deeper into basketball with a new project chronicling the illustrious career of Houston Rockets star forward Kevin Durant. The series will chart Durant’s life on and off the court: his upbringing in the Washington, DC, and Maryland area, college at the University of Texas, his immediate impact in the NBA, and his role representing the United States in the Olympics.  As the release notes, the series will be directed by Emmy Award winners Michael D. Ratner (Kids Are Growing Up; Justin Bieber: Our World; Dancing With the Devil) and Robert Alexander (A Man Named Scott, SNL50: Beyond Saturday Night, Shaq). Viewers can expect to see Durant’s most revealing interviews to date, with appearances by his mother, father, brother, coaches. “Filming for the series began before the 2023-24 season, and will continue shooting into the current season and for years beyond as he approaches the final chapters of his career,” Netflix writes. That timetable means that the series will presumably showcase Durant’s last two seasons with the Phoenix Suns; his trade to the Rockets in the 2025 offseason, and his time in Houston during the 2025-26 season and beyond. Durant, 37, a 15-time NBA All-Star has agreed to a two-year contract extension with the Houston Rockets, keeping him with the team through the 2027–28 season. The deal is reportedly worth $90 million, with the second year being a player option, meaning Durant can choose whether to stay for the second year or not.

Miguel is not shy about his love of psychedelics. During a recent interview with Bootleg Kev, Miguel shared his best and worst trips on the substances. “We love psychedelics,” adding that he’s had “mostly good trips.” “The best ones are always outside, though,” Miguel explained. “Either by water or in the forest kind of vibe. Maybe not in the forest, but like the sky is out. You know what I mean? Like you’re looking at the trees, you’re like, ‘Wow, we really are one.’” Miguel went on to explain how taking magic mushrooms has been a game-changer for him. “There’s a real something in — especially shrooms and psychedelics — that there’s something in the…it’s all one, you know, there’s the oneness of it. I don’t know. There’s something really special. Never had a bad trip, though,” he said.  Miguel did admit that his worst trips happened when taking edibles “I’ve had some bad trips,” he explained. “They always end up in me crying over some bullshit.” One trip in particular was while he was on an edible. “I was like under a car, hiding. … That’s one, you got to ride that out,” he said. Miguel has recently released his long-awaited fifth studio album, titled CAOS, marking his first full-length project in eight years. The album arrived on his 40th birthday. The album is his most genre-bending work yet, architecting a powerful collision of R&B, grunge, industrial rock, and Afro-Latin rhythms, channeling both aggression and intimacy across its twelve tracks. “The sound of the album was very much inspired by that nonlinear kind of aggressive tone that I think, at least personally, I’ve had to take with myself and really get to the bottom of things,” Miguel told USA TODAY. “It’s not an easy or happy or romantic process. I think it takes a lot of consideration.”

NBA YoungBoy has announced that he and his wife, Jazlyn Mychelle, are expecting their third child together—a revelation that surfaced on his new album, MASA. The news quickly drew attention, arriving at a time when the rapper continues to balance a career marked by success and controversy with the realities of a large and complex family life. In the track “If You Need Me,” YoungBoy drops the line, “Me and Jaz on our third kid, me and you just ran another lap.” The lyric, subtle yet striking, signals both personal joy and continuity for the 25-year-old artist. Their upcoming child marks his thirteenth overall—a milestone that adds another layer to his already storied public persona. On social media, Jazlyn has shared quiet glimpses of her pregnancy; her growing baby bump met with warm reactions from fans. The Baton Rouge native’s family life has often mirrored the turbulence and triumphs of his music. YoungBoy reportedly fathers twelve children with ten women, including his first son, Kayden, born when he was just sixteen. He shares other children with Yaya Mayweather and Jania Meshell, among others—relationships that have often played out under the glare of public scrutiny. Yet despite constant headlines and speculation, those close to him describe a devoted father intent on keeping his family close. View this post on Instagram A post shared by XXL (@xxl) NBA YoungBoy embraces renewal onstage and at home Away from the personal spotlight, YoungBoy has returned to performing, taking MASA on the road with shows in New Orleans and beyond. His recent appearances have sparked rumors about performance restrictions in Louisiana, though the New Orleans Police Department clarified that concert decisions remain strictly between the artist’s management and local venues. For NBA YoungBoy, the announcement marks more than another addition to his family—it reflects a period of renewal. Between the lyrical introspection of MASA and the stability he’s building with Jazlyn Mychelle, the rapper appears to be stepping into a new phase of life, one grounded in both evolution and endurance.

Rick Ross, the rapper and entrepreneur celebrated for his luxurious lifestyle and business ventures, has put his Southwest Ranches, Florida, estate on the market. While stepping away from this Florida property, the Mississippi-born mogul continues to maintain a sprawling residence in Georgia. This highlights the breadth of his multi-state real estate holdings. Earlier this month, Ross listed his 14,000-square-foot estate through Sotheby’s International Realty. Situated in the prestigious Landmark Ranch Estates, the home occupies 2.348 acres of meticulously landscaped grounds. It blends high-end comfort with spaces designed for entertainment. The estate offers a range of premium features: A private entrance leading to the residence Resort-style swimming pool ideal for gatherings Covered summer kitchen for outdoor cooking Expansive patios designed for entertaining Soundproof theater and custom bar Multiple office spaces plus a separate 2-bedroom guest house Car enthusiasts will note the porte-cochère and a 9-car garage. The primary suite includes a bespoke closet, sitting area, bonus room, and spa-like bathroom. Over four years of ownership, Ross has upgraded the home. This includes a 2023 roof replacement and even embedding a Rolls-Royce emblem into the driveway. These changes reflect his affinity for luxury automobiles.

He also owns a mansion on Star Island in Miami Beach, purchased in 2023. Meanwhile, he continues to reside in his Georgia estate, “The Promise Land.” This grand residence features 109 rooms and the largest residential swimming pool in the United States. It ranks among the nation’s most impressive single-family homes. Beyond real estate, Ross has recently been part of broader conversations in hip-hop regarding apologies and reconciliation. Gucci Mane publicly expressed regret for negative comments made in 2013, attributing them to a challenging period in his life. Reflecting on Ross’s response, Gucci said: “I was super embarrassed and hurt by the things I said,” Gucci recalled, noting that Ross’s acceptance provided relief. “It was like a weight off my shoulders,” he added, emphasizing the importance of mending personal relationships within the music industry.

Excitement is mounting around Drake’s forthcoming album, ICEMAN, fueled in part by updates from former football star Johnny Manziel. As Drake readies what will be his ninth studio release, Manziel has become an unexpected source of clues, teasing fans with a mix of cryptic commentary and playful posts. In August, Manziel first stoked the buzz, hinting that the album would arrive this fall. He suggested a potential window, saying, “Soon, probably around the end of October, maybe early November. With his birthday coming up, I’m planning to take him to a game this year. He’s going to Aggie Land.” The remark immediately sent social media into a frenzy, igniting speculation about the timing of the release. The anticipation intensified with a recent Instagram post from Manziel. Channeling Drake’s playful style, he wrote, “Went back to Tuscaloosa for the first time since 2012, hopped on a jet to South Beach and tried my best to burn the city down. Caught a flight down to the Bahamas because it’s ICEMAN time and the baccarat tables were calling my name.” He added, “Back to South Beach for my dog’s birthday, ended up at Booby Trap. It’s been a month for the books, and we still have nine days left.” Fans quickly dissected the post for clues about the album’s arrival. Fans Eye Halloween Drop for Drake’s ICEMAN Many now speculate that ICEMAN could drop around Halloween, aligning with the industry’s traditional Friday release schedule. Adding to the intrigue, Drake’s own birthday falls on October 24, also a Friday, raising expectations that the release might coincide with his celebrations. Drake’s name has recently appeared in other headlines as well. On the Big Facts podcast, Gucci Mane, who collaborated with Drake on the 2013 track “Both,” reflected on a past dispute. “I said some things I shouldn’t have. I had to reach out to him later to apologize,” Gucci said, praising Drake’s willingness to reconcile. The exchange highlighted the balance of rivalry and respect that often defines the music industry. With the final days of October approaching, all eyes remain on Drake. Whether Manziel’s posts are clues or playful hype, anticipation for ICEMAN is at a peak. As fans await the official announcement, one question dominates: when will Drake deliver his next chapter? It’s “ICEMAN time,” according to Johnny Manziel “Caught a flight down to the Bahamas because it’s Iceman time and the baccarat tables were calling my name” pic.twitter.com/0jV87vmVpf — Kurrco (@Kurrco) October 22, 2025
