Megan Thee Stallion Says She Paid Future $250,000 For “Pressurelicious” Feature

Ahead of her studio album, TraumazineMegan Thee Stallion dropped “Pressurelicious” featuring Future. The three-minute record wasted no time climbing the charts, and now Megan is letting everyone know how the collaboration came to be.

During a sit-down interview with the L.A. Leakers, the H-Town hottie stated that she had already completed the song herself. “It’s a really crazy story… I recorded it one way, and I was like, ‘You know what? This would really sound hard if Future was on it.'” Following her revelation, she asked her team to figure out the rapper’s feature price.

“Being a woman in the industry,” she stated, “reaching out to a man trying to get a feature is always going to be a task. You don’t know what to expect.” Upon asking, it was revealed that he charged $250,000. “I was like, ‘Okay bet… somebody go pull $250,000 out the bank and go drop it off to Future,” she laughed and said.

She was in such a rush to get it delivered because she and Future had been in the same city at the time. While it was a difficult duty to pull off, her team got it done. To her surprise, though, the father of seven provided more than just one verse. “He rapped over the whole beat,” the 27-year-old added, “He gave me the whole Future experience.”

Because of this, Megan had to do some rearranging. “Then when I got his verses… I was like, ‘I’ve got to write some new verses because I’ve got to make this make sense.'”

R. Kelly’s Fiancée Says She Is Carrying Imprisoned Singer’s Child

Just before R. Kelly was sentenced to prison for 30 years after being found guilty of sex crimes and racketeering charges, he and Joycelyn Savage got engaged. Despite Savage’s claims that she loved Kelly and supported him, her family had doubts that the engagement was real. “she never made the engagement known to the family, and they’ve never even spoken about the possibility beforehand,” said the family’s attorney.

Now, Savage says that she is carrying R. Kelly’s baby. In her new tell all book which was obtained by the New York Post, Savage described the discovery of her pregnancy. “I began expecting severe morning sickness and was unsure what was wrong with my body. I thought I had contracted COVID-19, but the most amazing news of all was that I was expecting,” she writes in the book, called Love and Joy of Robert.

“It was a happy day but an incomplete time in my life,” she continues. “Today I am grateful to God for giving me the most precious gift. Robert is extremely excited about the news that I am having a baby and feels sad that Robert will not be able to be here with us.”

In an interview with the Post, Savage said that Kelly agreed for her to share a photo of their child’s ultrasound. She also added that he had read the book and approved its publication. “Robert approved the book and his team has read it through. I wanted pictures of us at concerts, at his house, and lying down together. I told them I wanted exactly what happened,” Savage said. “However, there were moments I didn’t include in this book because I wanted to have a happy ending and story with Robert. I live in one of Robert’s condos and am working on my next book, which will reveal a lot about him that has been tampered by the media. Many secrets.”

Savage is currently living in one of the R&B singer’s condos.

New York Sports Team Colors Animate This Nike Vapormax Flyknit 2021

While no longer the newest proposition under the “Swoosh” banner, the Nike Vapormax Flyknit 2021 continues to emerge in new styles.

Recently, the Vapormax-cushioned silhouette emerged in yet another greyscale arrangement, only this time, the sneaker is offset by much more vibrant accents. Profile swooshes indulge in a blue and orange color palette reminiscent of the New York Knicks, Islanders and Mets sports teams; components along the tongue and around the heel follow suit. Robust cushioning solutions underfoot opt for a disparate green hue that further keeps the pair from simply being another grey offering.

No firm Nike.com release details have been disclosed by the brand, but that’s likely to change as autumn inches closer. In the meantime, enjoy official images of the pair ahead.

Wiz Khalifa Sells Los Angeles Mansion For $4.5M

For celebrities, switching up homes isn’t a rare activity. After all, they have the funds to rebuild, tear down, or relocate cities whenever they please. Wiz Khalifa is taking advantage of those opportunities at this very moment.

According to TMZ, the “See You Again” rapper has found a buyer for his mansion in Los Angeles. Located in Encino, a neighborhood in the San Fernando Vally region of L.A., the home has six bedrooms and bathrooms, an in-home movie theater and spa, a pool, a waterfall, and floor-to-ceiling glass doors.

Wiz, whose real name is Cameron Jibril Thomaz, has had the home since 2019. His selling point for the modern mansion is $4.5M– which is $1M more than what he paid for it three years prior. 

While he’s given up on the place, the father of one still has love for the area in which it resides, as his new house is just a few miles down the street. His latest spot cost a whopping $7.6 million and features a guesthouse and a gym, as reported by the media outlet.

In recent news regarding the Taylor Gang founder, last week he addressed lashing out at a DJ in an L.A. nightclub. “I wanna apologize to all the DJs and the entire DJ community for my behavior. I do realize that it was a bit much and I’m a big enough man to be like, ‘Yo, that shouldn’t have happened. That shouldn’t go down. That’s not how business gets handled, and that’s not how you get your point across,'” he said in an interview with DJ Envy and DJ Drama.

Megan Thee Stallion Joins Forces With Key Glock On “Ungrateful”

Megan Thee Stallion is back with Traumazine, her new album she released on Friday, August 12. It’s her first project since the massive hit Good News, which she dropped back in 2020. The industry has been gushing over Traumazine since its release, and the project boasts a wide variety of features, including Future, Latto, Pooh Shiesty, Dua Lipa, and more.

On the album’s second track, “Ungrateful,” Megan is joined by Key Glock. The two deliver scathing bars about people who wish them ill over hard-hitting production by Bandplay. The chorus is a sneaky earworm, as Megan lists the qualities of her haters: “Whole lot of fake-ass, snake-ass, backstabbin’, hatin’-ass, no money gettin’-ass b***hes.” The San Antonio rapper’s delivery is all business on the track, but she still has room for some playful bars like, “Hollywood shit ’cause I’m with all the action / Ain’t your boyfriend, you can stop all the actin’.” Key Glock is a welcome addition, matching Megan’s ferocity.

Check out the track below, and let us know what you think of it in the comments.

Quotable Lyrics

Whichever bitch wanna come get it, I got it, I’m givin’ out work, come apply 
These bitches talkin’ that shit and they sayin’ my name and I can’t keep just lettin’ it fly
They gotta sub, they gotta tweet
They gotta go get they homegirl for me

Tiffany Haddish Says She Turned Down A $10M Endorsement Deal

Tiffany Haddish has managed to create quite the name for herself within the past few years. The stand-up comedian and actress has grown in popularity due to her loud outbursts, explicit personality, and comical characters. While she’s been able to garner thousands of fans, her journey in the entertainment industry was far from easy.

 

Haddish has been very open about her past, often speaking about how she was poor and homeless. Fortunately, things have changed for the better, but the comedian still fears things could go wrong. “When I started making a little bit of money,” she told Cosmopolitan, “I started trying to figure out how to create generational wealth…  Now I have a surplus of money, but I’m still afraid of being poor again.”

Now that her bank account looks nice, she’s been able to turn down deals that don’t resonate with who she is. She told the magazine about a time she turned down a whopping $10M to post something on social media. When explaining why, she stated, “… my soul is worth more than that to me. My spirit, my integrity, how I want to be able to look at myself in the mirror every day…I’d rather be flat broke than get money to do something that makes me feel like sh*t.”

At the beginning of her career, Haddish would take acting roles just because– but now, she thinks deeper. “Now, it’s what seems like fun and what resonates with my soul,” she told Cosmo.

He wrote in an Instagram story about the event. “It was a very tense few minutes, I’ve never experienced anything like it before,” he described. “The tragedy happened just at the end of my session on the main stage, just below it, which was the most affected. It was a few moments of horror. I am still in shock.”
