Ivanka Trump and her father, the fuhrer saw their brands literally lifted off the shelves.
It was first Macy's which pulled his official brands. Then came Nordstrom, TJ Maxx, Marshalls, Sears, and Kmart. These are mainstream retailers no longer invested in the Trump name.
Donald J. Trump, the current leader of the United States is once again facing another controversy.
The news got attention. Matter of fact, it's ignoring the fact that Sears Holdings (the Kmart and Sears empire) is crumbling before our eyes. It's going to be likely we're going to see the end in 2017.
Trump never shy of an opinion, hopped on his social media to rant about how these terrible companies are disrespecting him.
He's complaining about the mainstream retailers dropping his brands. He is not happy they're taking their frustrations on poor little Ivanka.
Ivanka's professional brands took a nosedive after the election and the companies found no other choice than to drop the retailer.
Political advisor Kellyanne Conway found herself in hot water after she appeared on Fox News to give a shout out to the brand. It was a clear ethics violation and it drew criticism from kookspiracy chaser Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT).
Legendary status for the late rapper Tupac Amuru Shakur.
He will be inducted to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, becoming the sixth hip-hop artist to be inducted to the museum of music legends.
Run D.M.C., Public Enemy, Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five and N.W.A. have sealed the deal.

In April, the induction ceremony.
This was Tupac's first year of eligibility to be inducted. In order to be eligible, artists and bands, "must have released its first single or album at least 25 years prior to the year of nomination."
Tupac Shakur died in September 1996 after he and Marion "Big Suge" Knight were ambushed in Las Vegas after leaving a Mike Tyson boxing match.
Thugger tears into Black women doing their jobs. He waves wads of cash at them saying that he's privileged.
That's the question I want to ask you about the Atlanta rapper. If a 6'3" heavily tattooed Black man would walk into a job interview with tattoos on his face and piercings on his face, would you hire him?
Jeffery Williams, known professionally as Young Thug made himself the talk of the nation this week after he disrespected two airline staffers who wouldn't let him board a plane. The rapper would then call these women "ants" and throw $15,000 at them to quit their jobs. Thugger disrespected Black women.
This video happened to show up on social media Wednesday night.
A video posted by The Shade Room (@theshaderoom) on
Thugger was poking fun at the two Black female workers after he claims they tried to make him miss a flight. Flashing a Bentley bag full of cash, he begins the video by explaining that he has attempted to offer the women $15,000 a piece if they quit their jobs.
Thugger got shade when the woman said to him, "You need to get me off of camera and you need to step away from this counter."
"These two ants are so rude," Thugger said. "Look--- these two ants are so rude, they're peasants! They're saying their manager is on the way. I don't want to talk to the manager. Y'all are ants. Your manager is a peasant. And y'all are ants."
Then after they women bluntly said no to the offer, Thugger said, "I'm giving you bums one more chance." He would tell the person using their camera phone "sink in" on the woman's hair.
"Their hair nappy as a motherfucker. Looks like African-looking," said the rapper. "Seattle, man, I can't make my show because I got into a little altercation in the airport with two civilians."
When he published the video on his official social media, he got hammered by Black women and the junk food media for his antics.
Thugger would later apologize for acting out at the airport.
So if this right for him to disrespect Black women, should we go after his girlfriend, his daughters and his mother?
Matter of fact, should we go after his antics which some would question his sexuailtity?
Since the controversial billionaire/racist/sexist/pussy grabbing/immature reality television star became your next fuhrer, it's given rise to the -isms. Racism, sexism, favoritism and nepotism are alive and well in Donald J. Trump's America.
When it comes to being a celebrity, you want to be recognized for the hard work you've done either in politics, sports, entertainment or heroics.
This is a common theme to disrespect Black women.
Young Thug is affiliated with the domestic terrorist group The Bloods. He released three mixtapes this year, I'm Up, Slime Season 3 and [No My Name is] Jeffery on 300 Entertainment/Atlantic Records. He is working on a collaborative mixtape with Gucci Mane, Bryan "Birdman" Williams, and his official debut album called Hy!£UN35. He is the father of six children. He resides in Atlanta's suburbs.

When it came to Trump, when they mentioned his name, they said it because they were bragging about being rich. But then again, he became a part of hip-hop when these rappers disrespect women
While the controversial billionaire, reality television star and internet troll prepares his cabinet, we will take a moment to reflect on the music that keeps my spirits up in post-election.
Let's listen to LL Cool J.
It's a classic banger called Loungin' (Remix) (Who Do You Luv) featuring Total.
The celebrity agitator was allegedly robbed while in Paris, France. We haven't gotten all the details about the controversy, but Kim Kardashian-West is pretty shaken up by this.
Husband, rapper/producer/celebrity agitator Kanye West abruptly cancelled his performance to handle a major "family emergency".
Kardashian-West was jacked up by two men who portrayed themselves as police officers. They were armed and they weren't playing games. They took an undisclosed amount of properties.
As Kanye West was performing in New York he would kill the music and say to the fans, "I'm sorry...I'm sorry, family emergency. I have to stop the show!"
Fans were left speechless wondering if this was a stunt or for real.
Apparently it was real...
Now if Kim K. was robbed of her properties, I am assuming that the robbers will sale the photos and videos of her to tabloids for a hefty sum.
The celebrity agitator was in Paris at their Fashion Week.
Kelly Ripa is likely to pick Morris Chestnut to replace Michael Strahan. Chestnut was featured in The Best Man, Boyz in the Hood and Fox's Rosewood.
The drama over at Live! may be coming to an end. Kelly Ripa has announced her new host. The news will be dropped soon and people are anticipating on the new host being a famous face.
The possible host is someone familiar with television and movies.
It seems like actor Morris Chestnut is highly favored to be the replacement for Michael Strahan, the ex-NFL star/actor/game show host who abruptly left the show to take on full time duties at GMA.
This was one of the biggest shocks in the junk food media. It sparked a bitter feud between Ripa and Strahan. The two were distant from one another and refuse to acknowledge each other.
Kelly Ripa was struggling to find a decent host.
Chestnut is probably the right choice. Given that Chestnut is 'eye candy" for women and he has notable history appealing with viewers, it's good choice.
Chestnut is on the Fox police drama Rosewood. It's greenlighted for a second season and it will air again on Thursday to replace Bones after it finishes up its final season.
Other possibilities include: Neil Patrick Harris. He would be a suitable choice. He's a famous actor who can entertain and make the show more lively. He's is openly gay and could bring rational views to the show. The actor and business mogul is best friends with Ripa. Neil Patrick Harris and Kelly Ripa were guests of actress Rachael Harris's wedding.
Anderson Cooper, the CNN host and CBS 60 Minutes commentator. With a busy schedule and a failed talk show, it's highly unlikely for him to be the choice. Cooper will moderate the second debate between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.
Fred Savage and Rob Lowe. Both have appeared on the critically acclaimed sitcom The Grinder. The series was cancelled in the latest round of Fox downsizing its comedy blocks. Savage is a famous child actor now turned famous director and producer. He is working on other sitcoms and directing episodes of New Girl, black-ish, The Goldbergs and Girl Meets World starring his brother Ben Savage.
Lowe, on the other hand was probably a bad choice. Given that he's turned conservative, he will clash with Kelly Ripa on issues like LGBT and Hillary Clinton. Lowe who is critical of Barack Obama would say something that would make the show too political. Lowe is also working on a television series.
We will await the announcement. The new season of Live! begins on Monday.
Jerry Heller, the co-founder of Ruthless Records and the manager of famed hip-hop group N.W.A., passed away.
Jerry Heller, the man who helped bring the N.W.A. into the mainstream passed away. Heller was the manager of the group and was one of the reasons for the breakup. Heller passed away at the age of 75 in Thousand Oaks, California.
He died of a heart attack and his family confirmed it was a fatal car accident.
Heller met Eazy E and helped him form Ruthless Records. The label was responsible for pushing out the hits. It also gave the West Coast a voice. It dealt with oppression, police brutality and America's treatment of Black America. Critics said that the music was promoting violence and sexism.
The group dismissed this. They were saying that these issues are a part of Black urban life. They were expressing their freedom of speech.
The N.W.A. was composed of Ice Cube, MC Ren, DJ Yella, Arabian Prince, Dr. Dre, and Eazy E.
Arabian Prince would leave the group before it would become a mainstream act.
The group was one of the earliest and most significant members of hip-hop. The group is by far one of the most controversial. They couldn't get radio play because of their songs, but the group managed to pull sell 10 million units.
Things got worse for the group when Ice Cube accused Heller of mismanaging their money.
The world's most dangerous group.
The group would eventually breakup in 1991. Dr. Dre would leave Ruthless to start up the Death Row label with Marion "Big Suge" Knight.
Dr. Dre and Ice Cube would bash Heller and Eazy E for selling out their music. Eazy E said that Jerry was a "gangsta for life" and he wouldn't want to be around them "marks" Dre and Cube.
Eazy E would record a few more EP and his full length album under Ruthless. Around 1995, Eazy was getting ill. He was diagnoses with complications from AIDS. He passed away from the deadly disease.
The critically acclaimed Straight Outta Compton movie portrayed Heller as a bad person. He would sue the F. Gary Gary and NBCUniversal for slander. He would blame the movie for him having trouble trying to secure acts.
The album Straight Outta Compton marked the beginning of gangsta rap. The group was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2016.
You got to give up to the city of Compton. Without the N.W.A., you wouldn't have gangsta rap.
Ruthless Records also was responsible for bring Bone Thugs-N-Harmony to the label. The Cleveland based group composed of Krayzie, Layzie, Wish, Bizzy and Flesh Bone.
Today would mark the 15 years since the world lost a R&B singer Aaliyah.
On August 25, 2001, the hip-hop community lost an iconic R&B singer. Aaliyah Dana Haughton was killed in a fatal plane crash. After finishing a music video shoot her single "Rock The Boat", the singer, her publicist, two members of Blackground Records, and her body man passed away in a ill-fated flight leaving the Bahamas.
Aaliyah's death came unexpected. She released her self-titled album that year and was promoting her movie Romeo Must Die. She was heading back to Los Angeles for a role for the horror Queen of the Damned.
Aaliyah released her first album at the age of 16. Age Ain't Nothing But A Number was produced by R. Kelly, the controversial R&B singer who had an alleged relationship with her at the age of 15.
R. Kelly produced her album and helped her gain mainstream success. R. Kelly had married Aaliyah for a brief moment but it was annulled after allegations of the singer's history.
Aaliyah teamed up with Virginia producer Timbaland and began a great working relationship.
One in a Million became a classic. With Timbaland and Missy Elliott on the album, they produced six singles and gave Aaliyah a four quadruple platinum album.
It also helped her gain success a model, actress and cultural icon.
Her death came unexpected. I mean a few weeks later we would have the worst tragedy to ever happen in our country.
Drake clowned on rival Meek Mill in his own hometown. And of course, Meek Mill and his goon squad tried to run up on him. But they got shut down.
Drake brought out his mentor Lil' Wayne to perform at the Wells Fargo Arena. Drake had the fans singing with him and as he peformed his hits. He also had Philadelphia boo Meek Mill. That's embarrassing.
Drake dissed Meek Mill in his own hometown.
You may remember that Drake was being accused of having a ghostwriter by Meek Mill. The rapper was pissed that Drake didn't promote his album and he got on Twitter and used his fingers to slam him for being fake.
Drake went into the studio and let him have it. He hit him with "Charged Up" and "Back to Back".
Drake destroyed Meek Mill's credibility as a rapper.
"You're not from Philly, Nigga!" - Drake.
Meek Mill was clowned online.
This ongoing feud has gotten so much attention. Fans of Meek Mill were disappointed in his response. The song "Wanna Know" was panned for being weak.
Since that, Meek Mill is now being referred as "Nicki Minaj's boy toy".
It's also shocking that Meek is about to move into Nicki Minaj's luxury home. So now he's in his girl home too.
Benzino is a notorious figure in the hip-hop community. He is blacklisted by most record companies. He still makes music and parties like a 20 year old. Mind you he's 52 year old.
Washed up rapper Benzino is hoping to save grace. A dangerous figure is no longer on the streets. His nephew Gai Scott was sent to the iron college after he filled his uncle with lead.
A couple years ago, Benzino was heading to the funeral for his mother who passed away. The shooter approached the vehicle. The two got into a heated argument and then the shooting.
Benzino was shot three times and he survived the shooting.
We just found out that the shooter will be pressing plates for the next ten years.
Benzino used this shooting as fodder for the role on a reality television show. He was dating video vixen Althea Heart a co-star on the Love & Hip-Hop: Atlanta.
Gai Scott the nephew of Benzino shot him during a dispute at a funeral. Scott was a member of Benzino's rap posse.
The two got into a heated fight with Stevie J and Joseline. VH-1 decided to fire Benzino and Althea out the cannon after this.
Since that altercation, many networks didn't want much to do with him.
Benzino decided to father a child with Althea. Now they had planned on getting married but his temper and the code of the streets kept this relationship on the rocks. They ended up on Marriage Boot Camp to repair their relationship. It didn't work.
Now they're not together and he's still trying to stay relevant.
Since his cannon firing from Love & Hip-Hop: Atlanta, Benzino has taken his talents to Black owned TV One. He is now on TV One's The Next 15. It's basically a reality show that deals with entertainers who are struggling to stay in the limelight.
Benzino is most famous for his feud with Eminem. At one time, he used The Source Magazine as a weapon against the rapper. Benzino was co owner of the magazine with Dave Mays, a Harvard educated White man.
Mays, Jon Scheter, James Bernard and Ed Young founded the magazine in 1988.
They had a bitter fallout when Mays wanted to give Benzino an opportunity to grow by selflessly promoting his terrible ideas. Mays and Benzino nearly destroyed The Source in this war with Eminem. The shareholders fired the two out the cannon in 2006.
Benzino and Mays would create Hip Hop Weekly, a New York Post style gossip rag.
Benzino is a one hit wonder. His only song, Rock The Party was the only single to make it in Billboard's top ten hits of the week.
Here's Would You, a single off Benzino's Redemption album. The album features guest vocals from actress LisaRaye McCoy. The actress/model tried a hand at rapping. She was promoted at one time to host The Source Magazine's: All Access television show on UPN.
The Game and 50 Cent settle the longest hip-hop feud in American history.
The long feud between two of the biggest egos in hip-hop finally came to an end. The Unit's 50 Cent has squashed his feud with Game. The Game was the fifth member of the Unit and in 2005, he was booted out the group after he complained about 50 and Dr. Dre's handling of his debut album The Documentary.
50 said that Game refused to follow their feud with Fat Joe, Nas, Jadakiss, and Ja Rule. Game said that 50 was jealous of him getting the beats from Dre. 50 was pissed that Jimmy Iovine and Dre pushed his album The Massacre (previous St. Valentine's Day Massacre) into March.
Both 50 and Game had traded shots online and in the studio. Game released the infamous 300 Bars song going after 50, Tony Yayo, Lloyd Banks, and Young Buck. He was booted off Aftermath and sent to Geffen Records.
50 Cent and The Unit would move from Aftermath and Shady to Caroline Records. Each act now is working on trying to regain their glory.
Many fans were urging 50 to drop the feud with Game. At the time, 50 said Game isn't going to ever be back in the Unit.
Now spotted at a strip club in Los Angeles, Game worked out his differences with 50 and the two are now on speaking terms. As for being a member of the group, we don't know.
Hopefully Game and 50 don't let their egos ruin this moment in history.
Game was spotted in Dubai with Lloyd Banks. It fueled speculations that the Unit was working on their differences with Game.
Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson was busted in St. Kitts and Nevis for being himself. The media mogul was cursing in the island nation. It's illegal to cuss in the country.
50 Cent needs to get a travel pamphlet when he travels outside the United States. He certainly has no clue about the laws in foreign nations. He's lucky he's not in Saudi Arabia, Singapore, the United Arab Emirates or North Korea with the blow.
The rapper would be flogged or shot by state executioners.
50 Cent was reportedly arrested in the Caribbean nation of St. Kitts and Nevis.
He dropped "M-fer" on the stage after performing his greatest hits. According to TMZ, Curtis "Money Blowing" Jackson was warned not to use profanity in the nation. He was told by the custom agents.
While in the nation, he performed around 40,000 people. When the DJ told 50 that he couldn't use the vulgar version of his songs, he said "fuck it". Then when onstage he uttered the word and it got him a night in lockup and a hefty U.S. fine. He sung his hit song, P.I.M.P.
He was booked and spent a night in the lockup. He will appear in court on the charge and be forced to spend a little of his earnings from the concert.
50 had to lose his passport and travel documents. They want his ass in the courtroom.
One of 50's roadies was also arrested after he shouted at the law and called them a bunch of....well he's got to lose his travel documents as well.
50 Cent is innocent until proven guilty. I don't know the laws in St. Kitts and Nevis, but I am guessing it's going to be at least a year in the iron college.
Jay-Z steps out of semi-retirement to rap a verse on Fat Joe and Remy Ma's smash hit All The Way Up. He does a subliminal shot at his wifey Queen Bey.
The jigga man is back in the studio and he's responding to the rumors of alleged cheating. He was singled out in the Lemonade album from his wife Beyonce (Queen Bey).
Jay-Z goes into the studio and rips a verse on Fat Joe's All The Way Up.
On the song, Jay-Z raps "You know you made it when the fact your marriage made it is worth millions/Lemonade is a popular drink and it still is/Survival of the lit-est/ N****s who really up vs. n****s up in your business."
Jay-Z also pays homage to the late superstar Prince who, prior to his death, had a deal with the music mogul to stream his music on TIDAL.
"Prince left his masters where they safe and sound/We never gonna let the elevator take him down," Jay-Z raps.
The remix to All The Way Up is exclusively on TIDAL. You will have register with the website in order to see videos or singles from Jay-Z, Lil' Wayne, Beyonce, Fabolous, Rihanna and Big Sean.
The single All The Way is by Fat Joe, Remy Ma, Infared and French Montana. The remix features Jay-Z.
Joey Crack's second summer smash... The last hit of the summer was Lean Back. Fat Joe and Remy Ma created a hit in 2004 and people were "lean back, lean back". Now they're together again and they're "all the way up!"
The legendary MC who helped created the hip-hop group The Beastie Boys passed away.
According to CNN, John Berry died Thursday at a hospice in Danvers, Massachusetts.
He was suffering from frontotemporal dementia and his health had been failing for several years.
John was a part of the group during the early 1980s before he left the group.
The Beastie Boys who blended punk and rap, burst on the music scene in 1986 with the album "License to Ill", which had the hits (You Gotta) Fight for the Right (to Party), Paul Revere, Brass Monkey, and No Sleep Till Brooklyn.
The Beastie Boys were notable for being a group of White rappers who broke through a genre that was mostly associated with Black culture. They were the iconic rap group of the golden age.
The members of the Beastie Boys were Mike D, MCA and Ad-Rock.
Adam "MCA" Yauch passed away three years ago in May.
World News Today send our condolences to the family of John Berry.
Lil' Kim is facing foreclosure on her New Jersey home after years of blowing off the bills. The $3 million New Jersey home is about to be on the auction block after the rapper failed paying them house payments.
HSBC Bank sued Kimberly Jones to foreclose on the mansion back in 2010, but Kim managed to starve off the foreclosure until late last year, when a judge put her in default.
The home which sits on two acres was paid for $2.2 million with a nearly $1.6 million mortgage, and agreed monthly payments of nearly $10,000 a month.
Lil' Kim and her lawyers have since been trying to save the house through mediation with the bank.
The Queen Bee hasn't paid the loan since 2009 and the bank said enough is enough.
Her home sits in Bergen County, a high class region in Northeastern New Jersey.
Remember back in 2008, Lil' Kim got her Bentley repossessed. The junk food media embarrassed her by appearing at her door. When she had a fallout with her then cocaine partner Scott Storch, he filed for bankruptcy. The repo man came to Kim's home and warned her that she don't pay up, she may face a TMZ moment.
Lil' Kim hasn't released an full length album in 10 years. She had released a mixtape to little fanfare this year. She will appear at the Sean "Puffy" Combs's Bad Boy Reunion tour with Cassie, French Montana and Machine Gun Kelly. The former acts Faith Evans, The Lox (D-Block), Mase and 112 will be there as well.
Lil' Kim has been feuding with a younger and more popular talent since the junk food media called the rival the Queen of Rap.
She basically lost the crown to the young and very popular (for the time being) Nicki Minaj.
Lil' Kim's home is located in Alpine, New Jersey
Nicki Minaj, Iggy Azalea, Dej Loaf, and rap troll Azealia Banks are in demand female rappers.
Kim, Foxy Brown, Eve, Shawnna, Da Brat, Trina and Missy Elliott were once considered the most mainstream female acts of the late 1990s and 2000s. Nowadays, they end up either on reality television or blowing money fast in stupid investments. Eventually, they may end up getting a little buzz on television or radio like Kim's shocking plastic surgery. Many in the Black community criticized her for bleaching her skin White.
Lil' Kim became a first time mother at age 40. Her boyfriend, rapper Mr. Papers is a 30 year old nobody who got famous for knocking the Queen Bee up. Now he's fighting for custody of their child.
To make matter worse, she may not be the only one losing the crib.
DipSet's Juelz Santana isn't rocking with Def Jam anymore. That loan was recalled and he can't keep his crib anymore. He failed at paying them bills and the bank took his home as well.
I've talked about it a few years back. And now the junk food media is talking about it. Lil' Kim is going off the deep end. It appears that Lil' Kim is looking a little bit pale these days.
We've talked about skin bleaching awhile back. It seems like it's about to be brought to the limelight now that many in the junk food media accused the Brooklyn rapper of bleaching her skin.
It's no secret that Lil' Kim had numerous plastic surgery on her face, her breasts and her butt. Many speculate that her addiction to beauty has doomed her.
I'm not surprised that Black women are not fond of this new look. Many people believe that Lil' Kim is looking for attention.
Before Nicki Minaj and Iggy Azalea, there was Lil' Kim showing off her beauty. And many in the junk food media praised her for being astonishing.
She is a hot mess!
Now the junk food media is ridiculing her for trying to age gracefully.
Lil' Kim isn't the only person known to have plastic surgery. Her buddy Pamela Anderson, the late celebrity agitator Joan Rivers and daughter Melissa had many surgeries on their bodies.
This new look from Lil' Kim is..........No comment!
I am just shocked.
The rapper released a mixtape this year.
The 41-year old rapper is a first time mommy. She gave birth to her daughter last year. She named her daughter Royal Reign. The father of her daughter is 30 year old rapper Mr. Papers.
Mr. Papers gained fame for being the young buck who got the opportunity to knock up the Queen Bee. He's currently fighting for custody of their child.
Cougar hunting and plastic surgery. A sign of the times. I am guessing it's looking like she's being taken through the washer a couple of times.
Canada is looking forward to the future. It's going green. The country is considering legalizing marijuana and it's winning praise in the U.S.
Our neighbor to the north trying to rid itself of the awful legacy of the former conservative prime minister Stephen Harper. The progressives are taking over. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is working overtime and is build bridges with President Barack Obama.
Trudeau said that legislation is well on the way. He said that recreational marijuana could be a reality in the Commonwealth.
Trudeau smoked weed back in his younger days. He's hoping that Parliament will pass a law assuring that any Canadian would not face prison time for smoking the sticky icky.
Washington, Colorado, Alaska, Oregon and the District of Columbia have legalized the weed.
President Barack Obama and some of his staff will meet with marijuana legalization advocates.
They have petition heavily for support of legalization of recreational marijuana. Many other states are pushing for legalization.
Janet Jackson cancels tour. The media claims that she's pregnant and expecting.
Some news made the rounds today. A famous pop singer decided to end a world tour for personal matters and her fans are excited about it. Janet Jackson might have a little bun in the oven.
"My husband and I are planning our family," she said, beaming in a video posted to Twitter.
Her doctors have ordered her to rest up, which means she's postponing the second leg of her Unbreakable world tour indefinitely.
"We're in the second leg of the tour and there actually has been a sudden change," she announced in the video. "I thought it was important that you would be the first to know my husband and I are planning our family, so I'm going to have to delay the tour. Please, if you can try to understand that it's important that I do this now. I have to rest up, doctor's orders. But I have not forgotten about you. I will continue to tour as soon as I possibly can."
Janet Jackson and her billionaire husband Wissam Al Mana are considering raising children and many in the junk food media speculate that Janet is pregnant.
Janet and her husband Wissam Al Mana.
The announcement does not make it abundantly clear whether the couple is already expecting a baby, trying to start a family or process of adopting a child. USA TODAY's request for clarification was not immediately answered.
In December, she announced she would have to move the tour back to the spring so she could undergo an unspecified surgery. A month later, she had to shoot down rumors that she was going to have to postpone her tour because she had cancer, and warned fans not to believe any news about her health unless it came from her own lips.
T'yanna Wallace, the daughter of the greatest MC of all time calls out Sean "Puffy" Combs.
She was totally out of the loop when Diddy didn't invite her to a celebration concert for her father.
T'yanna is the daughter of the Notorious B.I.G., a Brooklyn based rapper/producer who rose to critical acclaim after releasing Ready to Die and put Combs's label Bad Boy on the map.
She took to social media to slam the media mogul for being being a liar and fake ass punk for not including her and mother Jan Jackson. Biggie also had a son with Faith Evans named Christopher Wallace, Jr, known as CJ.
Diddy quickly reached out to her. He said that his made a mistake and he will invite T'yanna and her family to the concert. T'yanna scrubbed her social media posts and told the junk food media, everything is cool.
CJ Wallace. The son of late rapper Notorious B.I.G. and Faith Evans.
The Notorious B.I.G. (born Christopher George Latore Wallace) won praise and respect among most MCs. He also got entangled into a huge feud with Tupac Shakur and his label Death Row. The junk food media labeled their feud the East Coast vs. West Coast hip-hop war. It ultimately ended in the death of Tupac Shakur in Las Vegas in September 1996.
Biggie Smalls as he was also known was murdered in Los Angeles after leaving a hip-hop awards party in March 1997. Some say that the death was a retaliation killing and the murders of both Biggie and 'Pac still remain unsolved.
His last living album Life After Death came out a few days later.
T'yanna was only three years old when her father was gunned down. CJ was only a few month old when his father was gunned down.
The rapper would have been 44-years old if he was alive today. His birthday was on May 20.
Phife Dawg passed away after complications from diabetes.
A hip-hop legend passed away. The Associated Press reports that Phife Dawg of the rap group A Tribe Called Quest had passed away at the age of 45 today.
He was battling diabetes. He's been going through kidney treatment for most of his life.
Born Malik Isaac Taylor, the rapper grew up in Queens with fellow rappers, Q-Tip, Jabori and their producer Ali.
Phife stood at 5'3'' and was known by many as the Five Foot Assassin. He collaborate with the likes of De La Soul, the Jungle Brothers, the Native Tongues and Leaders of the New School.
Phife was known for his rhyming skills and his status as what the magazine calls the "high-pitched, gruff vocal counterpoint to [bandmate] Q-Tip's smooth, mellow flow." Although an official cause of death has yet to be announced, the magazine notes that Phife had suffered from various health issues, including diabetes that spurred a 2008 kidney transplant. "It's really a sickness," Phife said in an interview for an ATCQ rap documentary by actor/director Michael Rapaport. "Like straight-up drugs. I'm just addicted to sugar."
He also released one solo album, Ventilation: Da LP, in 2000 and had been working on a new album, Give Thanks, due out this year.
Ali, Phife and Q-Tip are A Tribe Called Quest.
A Tribe Called Quest released five albums before disbanding. They had a minor fallout over management and the label Jive Records. Q-Tip and Phife hadn't spoke in eight years.
The rap group reunited in 2004 when Wu-Tang Clan's Ol' Dirty Bastard passed away. They appeared together for the tribute to the troubled rapper.
The group went on tour for a brief moment and it sold out shows. The last time the rap group reunited was their recent appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. The group performed "Can I Kick It?" which was their first TV performance in 15 years.
E! Online has compiled social media tributes to the late rapper from fans, friends, and industry icons, including hip-hop magnate Russell Simmons, who tweeted, "Damn. #RIPPhife one of the greatest to bless the mic," and Public Enemy rapper Chuck D, who posted, "Rest In Beats PHIFE ATCQ Forever."
World News Today send our condolences to the family of Phfie Dawg. Rest in peace homie!
