Moneybagg Yo released his latest album A Gangsta’s Pain this past Friday featuring the hit single ‘Time Today’.

Aside from Future on the latest single ‘Hard for The Next‘, the project also features guest appearances from Pharrell, Kaash Paige, Lil Durk and Jhene Aiko across its 22 tracks.

Today, we have the first week sales projections for the Memphis rapper. A Gangsta’s Pain is expected to move about 100k copies in the first week which will vault it to a number 1 debut on the Billboard 200 chart this week. About 2-3k out of that is projected to come from pure sales, reports HDD.

This will mark the Interscope rapper’s first number 1 on the chart. It will also become the highest opening week of his career so far.

Kehlani is saying it loud and proud.

After revealing that she is gay earlier in the month, the singer is making it official. In a now-deleted video, posted Thursday (April 22) on TikTok, Kehlani addressed the speculation surrounding her sexuality.

“I’m just gonna fu**ing say it, because everybody keeps bringing it up to me,” she said before addressing her original announcement on her friend’s Instagram Live on Easter Sunday.

“It’s only like fu**ing 30 people on the live and they’re like, Kehlani, ‘What’s new?’ And I’m like, ‘I finally know I’m a lesbian,’” she continued. “Well, it’s fu**ing true. I am gay, g-gay, gay, gay.”

Kehlani, who turns 26 today, said that when she wanted to have “heart-to-hearts” with her family and friends, they were already aware of her sexuality.

“I’m like, ‘Guys, I finally know that I’m gay—like, I’m gay gay,’ and they’re like, ‘We know. Duh, stupid. Duh,’” she joked. “I feel like, ‘No. I want you to fall on the floor and be like, ‘Congratulations! We had no idea!’ Everyone’s just like, ‘Duh. You’re the only one who didn’t fu**ing know. The fu**ing closet was glass.’”

Added Kehlani, “So I guess I just wanted y’all to know that everyone knew but me.”

The “Nights Like This” singer, who gave birth to her daughter Adeya in 2018, recently graced the cover of The Advocate where she opened up about her sexuality and how she is viewed by others.

“I didn’t even really have to come out in my private life,” she said. “I don’t walk down the street and people look at me and go, ‘Oh, I bet she’s queer’ or ‘I bet that she’s into women’ or anything like that because of the way I present.”

Kehlani is gearing up for her virtual concert, “It Was Live Until It Wasn’t,” where she will perform her latest album, It Was Good Until It Wasn’t, live for the first time. The show will stream May 10 at 5 p.m. PT on NoCap.

In a new interview, Irv Gotti claims that DMX died from an overdose of “bad dose of crack” mixed with Fentanyl .

The Murder Inc boss spoke about DMX’s death in a chat with 107.5 WGCI in Chicago where he made the revelation. Citing information received from X’s family, Gotti said, “they said it was a bad dose of crack and they said some drug Fentanyl was mixed with the crack and that’s what made him overdose.”

He also added that X was diagnosed with Covid-19 once he reached the hospital, although an earlier source said he did not have the virus. “When when he got to the hospital, he got diagnosed with COVID and he couldn’t breathe. You know that COVID messes with your respiratory system, so that’s why he had to get hooked up to the ventilator. But they said before he did, he was brain died.’”

No family member or rep has so far talked about the cause of death except for the fact that he had heart failure. “We are deeply saddened to announce today that our loved one, DMX, birth name of Earl Simmons, passed away at 50-years-old at White Plains Hospital with his family by his side after being placed on life support for the past few days,” read the official statement at the time of his death.

Close friends and family will remember the legendary rapper at a private ceremony at the Barclays Center, New York at 4 pm today (Saturday). The ceremony will be livestreamed on DMX’s YouTube channel.

Drake and Chris Brown are reunited and it feels so good.

The “No Guidance” collaborators were spotted in Hollywood on Wednesday night (April 21). Drizzy and Breezy stepped out to the Highlight Room to celebrate Terrence J’s birthday alongside famous friends including Quavo, Offset, Gunna, KYLE, and NAV.

Both posted the same photo on their Instagram accounts. Chris struck a serious pose in a black jacket with a hoodie over his head, while Drake cracked a smile. “LOVE LIFE AND ALWAYS BE SOLID,” Chris wrote in his caption, while the Certified Lover Boy captioned his post with the palm tree emoji.

The photo sparked a frenzy from fans, who were hopeful for a full project from the dynamic duo. “Drake and Chris on a 7-10 song album would be smoothie! Chris work so fast in the studio y’all can knock that out in under 2weeks,” commented one user, while another added, “Chris brown x drake album would have the summer on fire.”

The two, who squashed their beef onstage in 2018, have a history of collaborations including “Deuces (Remix)’ and “No Guidance.” Last year, they linked up on Drake’s Dark Lane Demo Tapes track “No You Too.”

On Friday, Chris and H.E.R. dropped their “song of the summer,” “Come Through.” Meanwhile, Champagne Papi can be heard alongside Young Thug and Gunna on “Solid” off Slime Language 2.
