Kanye West Fans Chant “F**K Taylor Swift” In Her Hometown

Kanye West’s Saint Pablo Tour had a stop over in Nashville, Tennessee; the home of country music superstar Taylor Swift.

Kanye did not hesitate to perform his controversial lyric about Taylor Swift from Famous off his The Life Of Pablo album in the singer’s hometown and unsurprisingly it delighted many in the audience.

He opens the song with the line “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex. Why? I made that bitch famous” and stops right after the lyric to address the roaring crowd.

During his first performance of the song, Kanye directed the crowd to sing along to the lyric about Swift and when they did he asked the DJ to start the song over again saying “I need to hear that loud in Nashville, I need to hear that so loud in Nashville.“

The rapper explained “So many people told me, ‘You gotta take that line off that song. You gotta play it safe, This is what rap music is. This is what art is. Say how you feel. Well, this is how I feel”. The crowd starts chanting “F**k Taylor Swift” as Ye starts the song over.

This lyric from the song has been the cause for drama since it dropped as it was reported that Taylor Swift wasn’t happy when the song dropped.

Though Kanye claimed he got permission from her before putting the line in the song, which she refuted. Kim Kardashian West, the rapper’s wife then posted a video on Snapchat of his conversation with the country singer where he plays the song for her long before it was released and she approved the line.

P Square are thieves!!!!!

Young up and coming Ghanaian Musician – C Jay is calling Nigerian super stars – P Square, thieves because he claims his song “Rokoto” was stolen and sampled by the African icons to birth their new banger “Bank alert.”

According to C Jay, he tagged P Square when he posted his song on social media. Days later, he was prompted by one lady that his song had tampered with.

He followed up to download “Bank Alert,” listened and realized that P-Square stole his tune and even went ahead to use some of his lines.

This is what C Jay tells vibesin5.com

Stealing in a professional way, P-Square new tune “bank Alert” is a sample of my tune titled “Rokoto.”

I released Rokoto early this year; the tune went viral on social media, Facebook, Twitter, and the rest. I posted the link on P-Square wall on facebook, months later I got a tag from a female music here in Ghana, she updated on Facebook that P square’s new tune (“Bank Alert” sounds like Cjay Rokoto”).

This is where I came in the story, I quickly downloaded their tune to listen and it was very bad that they sampled almost everything in my Rokoto tune. From the bass line, the rhythm, the progression the grove and even took the first line of ma first verse (today na today ooo) from ma tune “Rokoto”.

I respect P square a lot; I learn from them, never thought they could do this to a poor boy like me who has struggled for more than ten years been underground. I wish ma voice will reach as far as it can, so everyone will know I’m disappointed in them.

“Bank Alert” is a nice song, I don’t doubt it, but they don’t have to do this to me as a whole, no disrespect, P SQUARE SAMPLE MY SONG ROKOTO, N AM DISAPPOINTED IN THEM…..

Lil Wayne Reveals Drake Slept With His Girlfirend

Lil Wayne was incarcerated for eight months in 2010 on a weapons charge and during his time behind bars, the rapper has revealed that protege Drake slept with his girlfriend at the time.

Lil Wayne is releasing a memoir that documents his time at the Rikers Island Jail in New York called Gone Til November: A Journal Of Rikers Island and in the book, he wrote about all that happened while he was in the jail including Drake’s confession during a visit. The book  hits shelves on October 11 and has its fair share of epiphanies like when Wayne wrote “I always thought I needed things like… a Bugatti, a dope-ass crib or some big-booty b*tches to be creative. But once it was taken away from me, my creativity was put to the ultimate test.”

He also officiated the wedding of two of his fellow inmates. He also helped decorate for the festivities by hanging toilet paper decorations and toasting the couple with Gatorade. He comically described it as “liquid gold in this bitch” as there was no champagne available. On his love life while inside, he writes that two female officers were suspended for “visiting” him. He also confirmed he was visited by Kanye West, Diddy and Drake.

On the Drake visit, he wrote about shocked he was when Drake allegedly confessed he’d slept with his girlfriend. “Drizzy came to see me, he was like, ‘Yeah, it’s true, Don’t f**k with her like that cause I did f**k her. Damn! This is the type of shit a man never wants to find out while he is locked up. Or, maybe so, cause only God knows what I would have done if I wasn’t locked up right now“. The girl in question was not named.

However, whatever rift this revelation might have caused between them seems to be closed up now. All seems forgotten as both artistes have been on songs, shared stages and shown up for each other since then.

Diddy Donates $1Million To Alma Mater, Howard University

Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ Bad Boy Reunion Tour has been on for a while now and yesterday, on stage in Washington DC, he gifted his alma mater Howard University a $1 million cheque.

The rapper said that the money was to be used to start The Sean Combs Scholarship Fund, a scheme that would help students pay off their financial aid.  The Bad Boy CEO presented the giant check to Howard University president Dr. Wayne Frederick on stage at the Verizon Center.

The rapper and business mogul dropped out of the University after just two years in the 1990s, but was awarded an honorary doctorate from the school in 2014.”I didn’t graduate from Howard. I was blessed to get my honorary degree but that doesn’t tell the whole story. Because the only reason why I was able to chase my dreams was the empowerment that Howard gave me, the support that they gave me, the first two years.” Combs repeatedly referred to the University as “home” during the presentation, saying that the first day he stepped on campus it was “like heaven. You know heaven… I mean, that’s the best way, it’s so much love. It’s an indescribable place, you have to see it.”
