Hip Hop Celebs come Pay Their Respects At Prodigy’s Funeral Service In NYC!


Hip Hop Celebs come and Pay Their Respects At Prodigy’s Funeral Services In NYC!
Last week, Mobb Deep’s Prodigy sadly passed away at the age of 42. He was hospitalized for a sickle cell crisis after a performance and festival in Las Vegas. He battled with sickle cell anemia since birth, but that never stopped him from making his mark in the Hip Hop world.

He was laid to rest at the Frank E. Campbell "Funeral Chapel" on the Upper East Side and several Hip Hop heads and celebrites came out to pay their respects.

LL Cool J, 50 Cent, Minister Farrakhan, Remy Ma, Fat Joe, Mobb Deep’s Havoc, Ice-T, and Questlove were all in attendance to say their final goodbye.
On Instagram, Fif shared, "I never spoke at a wake or funeral before but I felt like I had to say something at P's Rest In Peace prodigy God Bless."

Pictures from inside the funeral service show the NYC rapper as a young boy and special moments of his life.
Here are a few flicks from the ceremony's program:


Below is a clip of celebrities making their way inside the service:

We're not exactly sure why the police shut down the funeral, but we do know it was all love between everyone in attendance.

May he continue to rest in peace.

The Daily Buzz For June 30


Hailey Baldwin and Miss Piggy cover Love
It's an age-old, classic combo: Instamodel and iconic Muppet. Hailey Baldwin and Miss Piggy share a new cover of Love, on newsstands beginning July 24. It was shot by Alasdair McLellan and styled by Katie Grand, with hair by Anthony Turner and makeup by Francelle Daly. In the outdoor shoot, Miss Piggy wears a custom Miu Miu hat, while Baldwin appears in ample black tulle (a corset and bolero by Roland van der Kemp) and a Miu Miu hat of her own. The cover design features plenty of pink, which feels apt.


#RHoA: Kenya Moore: ‘My New Husband Didn’t Sign Up for ‘RHOA’
*When Kenya Moore first announced that she tied the knot earlier this month, Hollywoodland began to whisper that she convinced her mystery man (at that time) to marry her because it would be quite lucrative for them both.

Fast forward a few weeks later and “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” entrepreneur is STILL dropping crumbs to publications, namely PEOPLE, about her new hubby, businessman Marc Daly.

Kenya explained why she initially kept Marc’s identity a secret during a recent interview with PEOPLE.

“He didn’t sign up for this world, I did,” she said. “Every time someone has been associated with me, they attack that person – immediately going after them, trying to bring them down and saying crazy things. They tear people apart. And so for [Marc], he was like, ‘This is about me and you — it’s not about me or you.’ He just wanted it to be about our pure love and not about him.”

So why weren’t her nuptials filmed for the BRAVO cameras?

Well, to profit even more from this supposed “private” moment in her life, Moore publicly talked (again) about keeping her wedding “private.” She explained, “He didn’t sign up for this world, I did. Every time someone has been associated with me, they attack that person – immediately going after them, trying to bring them down and saying crazy things. They tear people apart. And so for [Marc], he was like, ‘This is about me and you — it’s not about me or you.’ He just wanted it to be about our pure love and not about him.” But apparently all of these wedding-related interviews are “about the pure love.” For him, it’s about being my protector and my best friend — not being someone that stands next to me, but someone who supports me and is okay with being behind me sometimes. He doesn’t want my money, he doesn’t want my fame, he doesn’t want my success — he just wants my heart, and he has it.”

Moore added “I’ve never been that girl and I will never be that girl. Which is why, if it’s not what I feel in my heart and my soul, I will not do it. I will not do it for cameras, I will not do it for somebody else to feel good about who I am. I have to do it for myself.” And the multiple People interviews.

Kenya also discussed the possibility of her new husband appearing on ‘RHOA’: “I think we have to make that decision together if the opportunity comes. We just got married — we haven’t even talked about that stuff before. I’m sure we will make the right decision. But right now, I’m enjoying being a bride and a newlywed.”

#NEWMUSIC from John Legend – Surefire (Remix)
As he gets ready to close out his “Darkness and Light Tour,” John Legend debuts a remix pack for his current single “Surefire.”
The first new version is a stripped down piano based remix, which removes the guitar and drums of the original. John’s style always fits well over simple keys, and he shines here as expected.

The second remix is by acclaimed Swedish composer Ludwig Goransson (Chance the Rapper, Childish Gambino), which is also piano based but adds some additional sounds and vocal coos.

Last month, John Legend released the cinematic short-film style music video for “Surefire.” The endearing visuals showcase the power of love and unity with a socio-political theme as two young lovers, from different backgrounds, are torn apart and must travel out of their comfort zone to reunite.

Check out the new “Surefire” remixes below



#HIPHOPNEWS: Migos Readies ‘Culture II’ for October
Migos is still doing it for the Culture. Earlier this month, the group announced that Culture II was on the way. Now, Offset reveals that the project will arrive this fall.
Speaking to The Hollywood Fix while out in Beverly Hills with his rumored girlfriend Cardi B, Offset unveiled the news. “Culture II coming out in October,” he said. “Ya dig?”

Prior to the announcement, Offset also spoke on his alleged altercation with Chris Brown at the BET Awards, chalking it up to “a whole lot of paper and a whole lot of haters.”
When pressed for comment on the feud, Offset clarified his stance. “Ain’t no beef,” he said. “They don’t want no smoke.”

Culture II will be the group’s third album and the follow-up to January’s Culture, which earned them their first No. 1 on the Billboard 200. Up next, the group is closing out their run on Future’s “Nobody Safe Tour,” which ends June 30 in Las Vegas.


#SHOCK: Adele Says She May Never Tour Again!
Hello, goodbye? Adele announced on Wednesday, June 28, that she may never tour again. Fans of the British powerhouse were clued into her possible plans when she reportedly displayed a handwritten letter on a big screen during her concert at Wembley Stadium.
“So this is it after 15 months on the road and 18 months of 25 we are at the end," the letter read. "Touring is a peculiar thing, it doesn’t suit me particularly well. I'm a real homebody and I get so much joy in the small things."

Adele, 29, however, reportedly told the crowd that she will continue to write music. “I only ever did this tour for you and to hopefully have an impact on you the way that some of my favorite artists have had on me live. And I wanted my final shows to be in London because I don’t know if I’ll ever tour again and so I want my last time to be at home," she wrote. "I might never see you again at a live show. Who knows. But I will remember this for the rest of my life."

The "When We Were Young" singer, who has been on tour since last year for her album 25, previously hinted about taking her final bow during an Auckland, New Zealand, show in March.
"Touring isn't something I'm good at," she said at the time, via NBC. "Applause makes me feel a bit vulnerable," she explained during the rain-soaked show, packed with 40,000 fans. "I don't know if I will ever tour again. The only reason I've toured is you. I'm not sure if touring is my bag. My greatest accomplishment in my career is this tour."

In November 2016, Adele also revealed that she plans to expand her family once the tour is over. She and her husband, Simon Konecki, are already parents of son Angelo, 4.


Shonda Rhimes hated the attention she got after losing weight
Anyone who's lost a significant amount of weight knows just how many unwarranted compliments weight loss can bring from friends and strangers, alike. And Shonda Rhimes, who has lost a fair amount of weight over the last few years, knows these comments all too well.
In the latest edition of her Shondaland newsletter, the Scandal and Grey's Anatomy showrunner talks about how she felt after a purely physical change sparked a sudden increase in attention from everyone around her.

"Women I barely knew gushed. And I mean GUSHED. Like I was holding-a-new-baby-gushed. Only there was no new baby. It was just me. In a dress. With makeup on and my hair all did, yes. But...still the same me," Rhimes shared, per EW. "And men? They spoke to me. THEY SPOKE TO ME. Like stood still and had long conversations with me about things. It was disconcerting."
But even more disconcerting, according to Rhimes, was that all these people "suddenly felt completely comfortable" talking to her about her body. They told her she looked pretty or "so hot now." They said they were proud of her and told her she looked amazing.

"After I lost weight, I discovered that people found me valuable—worth of conversation," she shared. "I discovered that NOW people saw me as a PERSON. What the hell did they see me as before?...What value did they put on my presence at a party, a lunch, a discussion?" Rhimes was frustrated by the fact that she received so much more respect only after she'd lost weight. "Being thinner doesn't make you a different person," she wrote. "It just makes you thinner."

Unfortunately, Rhimes is right: Sizeism is still alive and well. Too often, anyone larger than a sample size (0-8) is seen as an object of ridicule, the punchline to a joke or a charity case to be taken care of. And Rhimes isn't the only one to draw attention to this issue lately. Actress Gabourey Sidibe recently told Refinery29 that she's tired of people congratulating her on her own weight loss. "My body actually has nothing to do with you," Sidibe said. "I don't really need your support for it. It seems ill-placed."


#SPORTSNEWS: Chris Paul Is Heading To Houston to Rock on with The Rockets!
Chris Paul is leaving the Los Angeles Clippers and making his way to the Houston Rockets.
According to The Vertical, the Clippers are sending All-Star point guard to the Rockets under a deal in which they will acquire Patrick Beverley,  Lou Williams,  Sam Dekker and a top three protected 2018 first-round pick.

Paul agreed to opt-in for the final year of his $24.2 million contract instead of opting out and becoming an unrestricted free agent which would have allowed him to sign a new deal that started at $34 million a year. The Rockets will still have some shifting to do financially before they officially sign Chris Paul, but once they do, they’ll begin working on trying to nab Paul George from the Indiana Pacers.

Celebrities Slam Donald Trump Over Mika Brzezinski Facelift Tweet
Celebrities have been taking to Twitter all morning to slam Donald Trump for his tweet about Morning Joe hosts Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough – specifically with regards to his words about Mika.
The President tweeted that once, Mika “was bleeding badly from a face-lift” from his personal Twitter account. Mika responded later in the day with a simple tweet.

“It’s a sad day for America when the president spends his time bullying, lying and spewing petty personal attacks instead of doing his job,” MSNBC, the network that airs Morning Joe, responded in a statement.

Now, celebrities including John Legend, JK Rowling and more have voiced their concerns over the disgusting tweet.

The Daily Buzz For June 29


Ricky Martin Is Planning a ‘Massive’ Wedding in Puerto Rico
Ricky Martin’s wedding is set to be unforgettable.

It’s been seven months since he announced he was engaged to Jwan Yosef and the planning is underway.
via E! News: “It’s going to be a big event. I want something massive,” Ricky told E! News while in Las Vegas for his “All In” residency. “I for sure want to get married in Puerto Rico. That is something that has to happen.”
He continued, “It’s where I’m from, where my family is from. He’s from Sweden and some of his relatives are from Syria so we’re going to do something international. We’ll see what happens.”

While Ricky’s enthusiasm to say “I Do” is contagious, the Grammy winner admits that planning isn’t exactly full-speed ahead. As it turns out, organizing a special ceremony is harder than it looks.

“Everybody is talking about the wedding but nobody is talking about the planning of the wedding because it’s so difficult,” he joked. “I didn’t know it was so complicated to put together an event like the one we want.”
Before he walks down the aisle, Ricky can be found at Park Theater inside the Monte Carlo Resort and Casino in Las Vegas where he performs his biggest hits in front of a packed house night after night. In addition to select dates in June and early July, Ricky will also headline a handful of shows in September.

Two people who love the show include Ricky’s twins Valentino and Matteo. In between visiting the aquariums and exploring the desert, the singer’s kids are close to dad at his concerts.
“I have them every night,” he shared. “As long as there’s no school the next day, they’re with me.”
As for how Ricky’s life has changed since becoming a dad, he’s the first to say that these boys take priority.

“Fatherhood changes everyone’s life. I know I’m not the only father that says it but everything I do is based on my kids,” the “Shake Your Bon-Bon” singer shared. ” Every decision that I make is based on them and my kids are very happy and that means we’re doing a good job. I’m very happy. It’s beautiful.”

We’ll be checking the mail for our invite.


#RHoA: Kandi Burruss Shines In Little Black Dress At BET Awards HOT or NOT!
Artist Kandi Burruss delivered a memorable performance at the 2017 BET Awards, but she also made headlines for her revealing little black dress.
While many people were talking about the ladies’ vocal cords, others were mesmerized by the LBD that the reality television star wore on the red carpet.
Burruss turned heads in a body-hugging creation that featured lace on the sleeves and a large cut-out that revealed a lot of cleavage.
The risqué dress has sparked a mini-debate amongst Burruss’ fans.
Some find she was glamorous and are happy she embraces her curves and feels comfortable to show whatever she desires.

Others said as a woman with a young daughter she should cover a bit.
One person said: “Looking beautiful, I love it.”
Another stated: “Mothers of children, especially you young ladies should reveal less. She is beautiful no question…… But c’mon, Damn Kandi, I see too much.”
What did YOU think? Is it HOT or NOT?


#EMPIRE: Gabourey Sidibe Makes Her Directorial Debut
Her film The Tale of Four premiered at the Nantucket Film Festival.

(via Boston Magazine) What would you do if someone offered you, regardless of your experience, money to make a movie? It could be whatever you wanted it to be, as long as it was completed within a year. Would you say yes?
Gabourey Sidibe, despite being an Academy Award-nominated actress and a published author, originally said no when Refinery 29 approached her about directing a movie for their Shatterbox Anthology, a program that champions women in film.

“Look, I know that I have a voice, a very specific voice, but I didn’t know how important and how big I could make it. I just wasn’t convinced of it yet,” Sidibe says of her initial pass to the proposal. Thankfully, her manager refused to let her give no as an answer, and as a result, Sidibe presented her short film The Tale of Four this past Sunday at the Nantucket Film Festival.

The film, which offers a peak inside the lives of four different black women and the struggles they’ve endured because of their race and their gender, was inspired by the song Four Women, by Nina Simone. The idea to turn the lyrics of a song into a movie wasn’t Sidibe’s idea, but her friend Kia Perry’s.

“Kia was visiting me in Chicago and she was like, ‘Listen to this song—this is what I want to do.’ I remembered her idea and I really wanted to see it happen. I said, ‘Why don’t you just let me direct it? We’ll get it made, and I’ll bring you on as a producer.’ So when I said yes to Refinery 29, I didn’t say yes for myself, because for some reason I wasn’t able to believe in myself yet, but I believed in Kia.”
From left: Gabourey Sidibe, Kia Perry, and guests attend “Afternoon Tea Talk” during the 2017 Nantucket Film Festival. 

So for four hot days in August, Sidibe, Perry, and their cast and crew took their ideas to the northern tip of Manhattan and made a movie.
“The whole song was a really great short outline, but there was so much that we could do with it, there was so much freedom in between,” Sidibe says.
As a first-time filmmaker, Sidibe admits that she was scared and credits her cast and crew for giving her the confidence she needed.

“One of my mentors, Victoria Mahoney, said to me, ‘Make sure you have a crew that will respect you, because they already don’t want to because you’re a female.’” Sidibe made sure to surround herself with people whom she could trust and whom she could turn to for advice. “I had the least amount of directing experience. I knew that there was a lot to learn. I would’ve robbed myself of the opportunity to learn and to be a better director if I didn’t ask questions and if I didn’t leave room for improvement.”

And now, after all the planning, the unease, and the work, how does she feel seeing her film on the big screen?
“More than anything, I’m so proud, and not just for myself,” she says. “I’m really proud of Kia Perry and our really, really amazing crew and cast members. We made this movie with a small budget, but everyone said yes to us. Everyone wanted to do it because they believed in the project and they believed in us. So I’m most proud of that. I’m most proud of becoming a director under these people who thought I was just an actress. I just thought I was an actress. I didn’t know there was anything more. I’m pleasantly surprised that there is more.”

A Tale of Four will debut on Refinery 29 later this year.


#NEWMUSIC FROM Bruno Mars x David Guetta – Versace On The Floor (Remix)
After kicking off the 2017 BET Awards on Sunday with another electrifying performance, Bruno Mars surprises fans today (June 27) with a groovy new remix to his sexy single, “Versace On The Floor.”
Teaming up with platinum DJ/producer, David Guetta, the sultry retro-tinged ballad just got a smooth update, with silky R&B dance vibes and even a little vocoder for good measure!
“It is more than a remix; it is a collaboration and combination of different worlds together,” said Guetta of the enhancements he made to the 24K Magic track, which is being called “Bruno Mars vs David Guetta.”

“I hoped to create something that would not just be for one community, just like Bruno makes quality music that speaks to a wide audience,” Guetta continued. “He’s really a next level musician and songwriter. I knew that already, but by working on his music I realized it even more so.”

#HIPHOPNEWS: New Album From Public Enemy Coming Next Week – Chuck D Confirms
It’s confirmed – the iconic New York duo Public Enemy is set to release an album upcoming Tuesday, July 4th.
The album is titled Nothing Is Quick in the Desert and was supposed to be a surprise. However, the Spanish site Binaural published the news over the weekend, prompting HipHopDX to text Chuck D for confirmation: “Yes,” Chuck said.

Nothing Is Quick in the Desert is rumored to be a free download. No track list or other details are available, but according to Binaural, one song called “Rest in Beats” is dedicated to recently deceased colleagues.

We last heard from Public Enemy, when they released their 2015’s album Man Plans God Laughs.


Mariah Carey Asked About Ex-Fiance James Packer's Whereabouts, Gives Hilarious Response
She could have said "I don't know him!" Mariah Carey gave a hilarious response when asked about her ex-fiancé James Packer's whereabouts on Monday, June 26.
The "We Belong Together" singer was in Israel promoting her partnership with skincare line Premier Dead Sea Cosmetics when she began to field questions about the billionaire.

"I don't know where the motherf—ker is!" she told Channel 2 News station in Tel Aviv, laughing. "How am I supposed to know? I have no idea. I really have no idea about the political stuff. I don't pay attention to it."

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Packer has a close relationship with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Packer has reportedly been wanted since March by Israeli police for questioning about others' possible corruption.
Carey, however, continued to dodge questions about her ex on Monday night. "I was eating the food," she said about the event. "They had some food there that was pretty good. I don't know. I was just there because I was invited to a dinner."

Carey and Packer ended their nine-month engagement in October 2016. Carey was previously married to music executive Tommy Mottola in the '90s and is mom of 6-year-old twins Moroccan and Monroe with ex-husband Nick Cannon.


Who Wore It Better: Monica Brown vs. Faith Evans Wearing Gucci Ghost Skirt
There is nothing wrong with a friendly fashion battle among the celebs. Many celebs have been seen out and about in some of the same haute pieces.  The pieces are possibly the hottest and trendiest item in Hollywood. In today’s showcase of Who Wore It Better, we have Monica Brown and Faith Evans wearing Gucci Ghost Skirt.
Last October, Monica posed for the ‘Gram wearing a Gucci embroidered bomber jacket styled with a midi Gucci Ghost skirt. Faith Evans was recently spotted heading to the ASCAP Awards wearing the Gucci Ghost skirt paired with the brand’s logo print shirt.

Brooklyn artist Trouble Andrew was invited by Alessandro Michele to collaborate on the Fall/Winter 2016 Fashion Show collection. The artist incorporated his art into Alessandro Michele’s designs. The final product is a mix of two cultures-a juxtaposition of the past and the present.
The Gucci Ghost print silk duchesse skirt features pleated details, ribbon detail at the waist, side zip closure, an a-line shape, sits high on the waist, and is made from 100% silk.

Who do you think rocked the $3,600 pleated midi skirt: Monica Brown vs. Faith Evans?


HALLELUJAH! The Knicks Are Done With Phil Jackson!
Knicks fans are perhaps permanently broken and unable to experience joy. But they can still find a reasonable simulacrum of it in relief. Phil Jackson, after three years of somehow making a terrible, dispirited, dysfunctional franchise even worse in all categories, is out as team president.

ESPN broke the news overnight, and the local tabloids are confirming it this morning: Owner James Dolan is going to eat the two years and $24 million remaining on Jackson’s five-year contract just to get Phil out of the paint before he alienates the team beyond repair.
One reason is Jackson’s beef with Kristaps Porzingis, the only positive thing to happen to this team since that month Jeremy Lin was good. Jackson has been holding a grudge since Porzingis skipped his exit meeting, apparently never considering the reasons Porzingis was unhappy: The Knicks fired his favorite assistant coach, they insisted on running an offense he didn’t like, the team wasn’t improving, and they certainly weren’t getting him any help, to the point of constantly trying to drive off Carmelo Anthony, his only decent teammate.

But it was apparently Jackson’s showdown with Anthony that ultimately did him in. Ramona Shelburne writes:
Conversations about what was best for the team’s future between Jackson and Knicks owner James Dolan accelerated this week when the franchise decided it would not buy out embattled forward Carmelo Anthony, sources said.
Jackson, 71, had made it well known that he felt it was best for Anthony and the organization to part ways, both publicly and privately, but Anthony refused to waive his no-trade clause, and the Knicks were determined not to accommodate any request for a buyout. Anthony has two years worth over $54 million remaining on his deal.
With no end to the stalemate in sight, and free agency beginning on July 1, Jackson’s discussions with Dolan accelerated late Tuesday night and the decision was made to part ways.

Jackson’s attachment to his triangle offense was another reason for this split: Not only were Knicks players and coaches reportedly complaining about it all year, especially when he demanded at midseason that it become an even bigger part of the offense, but it has actively turned off potential free agents. Now the current Knicks and any signings (free agency, which starts July 1, will be overseen by GM Steve Mills) are free to play in coach Jeff Hornacek’s preferred faster-paced offense.

In three seasons in New York, Jackson did one good thing—draft Porzingis—and lost 166 games while nearly chasing Porzingis off. The 21st century Knicks are where legacies go to die, and given that this might be Jackson’s last stop, he might have done more damage to his own aura than to the Knicks franchise.

Meanwhile, the Knicks will enter free agency with a projected 2017-18 lineup that includes Frank Ntilikina, Courtney Lee, Carmelo Anthony, and Kristaps Porzingis, the last two of whom should be happy for the first time in a while. That’s ... that’s not actually a terrible team. Maybe the clouds are breaking. Maybe there are sunnier days ahead.

Or maybe Dolan’s going to bring back Isiah Thomas to run things.


Rihanna’s New Billionaire Boy Toy, Hassan Jameel is Saudi Arbian
He really isn’t white tho ‘Hassan’?

Rihanna has a new super duper hot man in her life and the Internet is having a field day with the big news.
Photos surfaced on Tuesday of Badgalriri in a swimming pool mid serious makeup sesh while in Spain. In the images, the Barbadian beauty can be seen locking lips and tongue with Hassan Jameel, an heir to Toyota.
Apparently, this is not just a quick fling for the singer. A source told The Sun, “This relationship is the real deal. Rihanna has told friends she’s in love with him and seems completely smitten.”

The insider added, “They’ve been spending a lot of time together away from prying eyes and are really serious. They’re really enjoying each others’ company.”

According to reports, Jameel was also at one point linked to model, Naomi Campbell.
The Internet, however, remains undefeated after users began curating memes and posts about the singer’s new man choice. Basically, he ain’t Black. In fact, the photos sparked a new hashtag, #RihannaHasAManParty. 



LOL!


LaLa Anthony Not Ready to Divorce Carmelo Anthony Yet: ’I Love Him With All My Heart'
So you’re saying there’s a chance?! After separating from husband Carmelo Anthony in April, La La Anthony seemed somewhat open to a reconciliation during her appearance on The Wendy Williams Show Tuesday, June 27.
When host Wendy Williams flat out asked if the 38-year-old Power star was divorcing her NBA pro husband of seven years, Anthony said: “Not right now. You know marriages are tough … it's filled with ups and downs. We are just going through a time right now."
Despite the rough patch, the actress revealed that the former couple’s biggest priority is Kiyan, their 10-year-old son.
“Him and I are the best of friends and our No. 1 commitment is to our son, Kiyan, and we have to set an example for Kiyan and that's what's most important to me,” the TV personality shared. “I would absolutely never say a bad thing about my husband. That’s my son’s father and he is an amazing dad.”
Anthony said she still loves her 33-year-old spouse despite the split. “I don't know what the future holds,” she admitted. “I just know that we are doing an incredible job again being parents to our son. We are the best of friends. I've been with Melo since he was 19 years old. You're not with somebody that long, and it just goes out the window. I love him with all my heart, and we are the best of friends."

The couple married in 2010 at a lavish, star-studded ceremony and were together for 12 years.

You’d figure after a miracle like this she’d think safety first but maybe there is just some cool stuff going on in the next aisle like a cat-fight or something.
