Let’s dive into some fresh tunes, shall we? First up on the list is the incredibly talented Tems, who truly made waves with her collaboration with Whiz Kid on the chart-topping “Essence.” That track practically owned the summer! Well, now she’s back with a brand new single titled “Crazy Tings,” taken from her latest EP “If Orange Was a Place.” I just have to give a big shout-out to Tems because her voice, her style—everything about her is just captivating. And let me tell you, “Crazy Tings” does not disappoint. So, do yourself a favor and give it a listen when you get the chance. Trust me, you won’t regret it.
Let’s chat about Megan Thee Stallion’s latest collaboration with DJ Snake, Osuna, and Lisa of Blackpink. They’ve teamed up for a hot new track called “SG,” which stands for “Sexy Girl.” I gave it a listen, and surprisingly, I’m digging it. It has a vibe reminiscent of “Tacky Tacky,” but somehow it feels more polished and less grating. I have a feeling it could really take off on the international scene. This collaboration is a smart move for Megan, opening her up to a wider audience.
I’d love to see a collaboration between Normani and Doja Cat. I’ve noticed they’ve been hanging out together, even partying at Doja’s events, and their chemistry is undeniable. It’s not just about their friendship though; I truly believe a collaboration between them would be incredible. With their talent, the song would be amazing, the video would be amazing, and their dance routine would undoubtedly slay. They both have impressive dancing skills, so I’m eagerly anticipating some top-level choreography from them. Here’s hoping they join forces in the future!
Moving forward, there’s been chatter about Chloe Bailey and Gunna possibly dating. Recently, the singer Chloe Bailey was seen at an Atlanta Hawks game alongside rapper Gunna, sparking speculation. The rumor mill churned, with many wondering if Chloe and Gunna are indeed an item. Interestingly, some weeks prior, Gunna publicly expressed interest in Chloe on his Instagram story. He shared a photo of her performance at the BMAs and wrote, “It’s the tongue for me” in the caption, indicating his admiration. Despite initial skepticism, given Gunna’s unique fashion sense—some even likening him to an “evil Mary J. Blige”—Chloe surprised many by spending time with him at the basketball game.
So, does this imply Chloe and Gunna are in a relationship? Personally, I don’t believe so. It’s quite plausible they’ve connected due to a collaboration they’re working on. Furthermore, it could be a publicity stunt, especially considering how the media has picked up on it and generated buzz. It’s possible they simply happened to sit together by chance and may not even be acquainted. Many seem to be assuming they’re dating, but observing their body language suggests otherwise.
If they were just entertaining each other, I doubt there’d be much more to it than a PR stunt. Let’s face it, many in the industry pursue relationships for publicity. Now, Chloe, as a new solo artist, could benefit from the exposure, but any PR relationship she enters should make sense. Her and Gunna don’t seem compatible at all. Chloe would likely fare better with someone more refined and with a higher profile if she were to pursue the PR route. Not that she necessarily needs to, as she already garners attention on her own. However, if she were to opt for a PR relationship, it should be believable and capture people’s interest, as everyone enjoys a couple that sets relationship goals. Yet, I just can’t envision Chloe and Gunna fitting that bill.
However, there appears to be potential for collaboration on a song between them, suggesting this link-up may be primarily professional. Time will tell if they’re working on something together.
Shifting gears, let’s discuss rapper Lil Durk’s reaction to recent cheating rumors. Twitter buzzed with controversy surrounding Durk, amid rumors of infidelity toward his girlfriend, India Royale. Allegations surfaced that he had cheated with a transgender woman. A blog called “Your Faves Before IG” shared what they claimed to be evidence, showing Durk following this individual. However, judging solely from the picture provided, it’s challenging to draw conclusions. The image lacks clarity, and neither face is visible. While the clothing matches Durk’s style, it’s insufficient evidence to support claims of infidelity. Unlike the widely publicized incident involving Eddie Winslow and reality star Sydney Starr, where clear actions were captured, Durk’s situation remains ambiguous. Thus, it’s premature to assume he cheated on India with a transgender woman based solely on this picture.
I did find it somewhat suspicious that Durk temporarily deactivated his Instagram account once the rumors started swirling, and it didn’t go unnoticed by some that India removed photos of Durk from her page. Those actions raised some red flags for me. However, Durk and India didn’t let the rumors linger. They both shared affectionate photos of themselves kissing, with Durk reassuring, “Y’all know dang well this is forever,” and India adding, “Play dangerously in love.” Additionally, they went live on Instagram together, where Durk playfully remarked, “I want to break up so bad,” followed by, “Y’all want us to break up so bad.” They were all smiles during the live session, seemingly unfazed by the gossip. Still, there are skeptics who remain unconvinced.
I wouldn’t rule out the possibility that Durk might have been unfaithful to India. In today’s world, some rappers navigate their relationships with fluidity, so if he were involved with a transgender woman, it wouldn’t shock me. However, I’m not asserting that Durk fits that profile, but it wouldn’t be surprising if such revelations surfaced. Yet, this particular image doesn’t provide conclusive evidence of infidelity. Even if Durk did stray, it seems India is inclined to stay, finding comfort in their relationship and the lifestyle it affords. They both seem to relish the attention their relationship garners on social media, aspiring to emulate the high-profile dynamics of couples like Money Bag Yo and Ari or Lil Baby and Jada. It’s evident they thrive on the spotlight.
None of these relationships are flawless, and it wouldn’t surprise me if most of these rappers were unfaithful to their partners. While I wouldn’t rule out the possibility of Durk being unfaithful to India, it seems like she’s committed to staying by his side despite any indiscretions. However, it’s crucial for both of them to prioritize protection against STDs, considering the risks out there.
