R. Kelly
R. Kelly’s three sisters are standing by their brother! They claim he’s actually the victim amid his guilty verdict for sex crimes and 30 year sentence. During an interview with the UK’s Good Morning America, the sisters put blame on racism in the justice system. They also said there’s “no proof” R Kelly abused girls, even though he illegally married Aaliyah when she was only 15, and he was 27 after getting her pregnant and got an abortion.
R. Kelly has another federal trial set for August 15.

Chris Rock
Chris Rock addressed getting slapped by Will Smith during his comedy show in NYC with Kevin Hart at Madison Square Garden. Chris didn’t mention Will’s name directly, but he spoke on “cancel culture” and reportedly said quote, “anyone who says words hurt has never been punched in the face.” Later on, Chris said he’s not a victim. He said,
“Yeah, that sh*t hurt, motherf*cker. But I shook that sh*t off and went to work the next day. I don’t go to the hospital for a paper cut.”
Migos
Quavo & Takeoff are gearing up to perform at the National Battle of the Bands, but without Offset. Over the last few months, rumors swirled that the group was over after Quavo and Takeoff dropped “Hotel Lobby” under the moniker Unk & Phew. They’ve been quiet about addressing the situation head on, hopefully they can work everything out and get back to the music.
