The Wrap Up with L’Orèal Luchi, keeping you informed on everything that happened in hip hop culture this week:
Blueface:
West coast rapper Blueface and his girl Chrisean Rock vow not to have any more public physical altercations with each other. This comes after Chrisean was arrested after punching Blue in the face twice. TMZ caught up with the couple; in a video, they say they’re going to focus on getting money and traveling, but then they almost got into an argument during the conversation!
R. Kelly:
During the third week of R. Kelly’s federal trial in Chicago, two more women testified and said they were sexually abused by R. Kelly when they were minors. One woman says the singer raped her and another said she started having sexual encounters with R. Kelly at age 14. Both were “recruited” to have videotaped threesomes with R. Kelly and another underage girl called “Jane,” from the “infamous sex tape.”
50 Cent:
50 Cent banned Trey Songz from his annual Tycoon weekend. 50 Cent called Trey out online. He said, “Last TYCOON he crashed a Wraith, this TYCOON he was acting crazy, wanting to fight and shit over the girls. He broke some shit up in his room @antthaladiesman Nah tell @treysongz he can’t come. smh.” Trey hasn’t publicly responded as of yet I’ll keep ya posted .
Fat Joe:
Fat Joe caught flack for celebrating the Latino pioneers of hip hop and saying they helped create the genre. Some online critics said he was incorrect, but he’s not wrong. Hip hop historians wrote and discussed that it originated from Black and Latino youth from the block parties in the 1970s.
Megan Thee Stallion:
Megan Thee stallion joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe family and made her debut with a cameo in the latest episode of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law. It’s unclear if she’ll return, but I’ll keep you posted.
