Beyoncé Performs New Version Of “Break My Soul (The Queens Remix)” After Lizzo Lawsuit News

Lizzo has been sued by three former dancers – Arianna Davis, Crystal Williams, and Noelle Rodriguez – who claims the singer sexually harassed them and it created a hostile work environment. The lawsuit is already creating a ripple effect as a huge supporter of Lizzo has somewhat reacted to the bombshell allegations. Iconic singer and performer Beyoncé skipped her usual shoutout to Lizzo and replaced her name with musical legend Erykah Badu.

Music Legend Erykah Badu Throws Shade At Queen Bey

Apparently, this is killing two birds with one stone as Badu has thrown shade at the Houston singer. Erica Abi Wright, known as Erykah Badu, reportedly took to her Instagram story and shared a snap of Bey and her daughter Blue in matching outfits. However, the dynamic mother-daughter duo was also in the Dallas singer’s “favorite chrome mirror hat.” Badu also added, “I guess I’m everyone’s stylist.”

The New Lyrics Presented At the Massachusetts Renaissance Tour Stop

Beyoncé has not directly responded to the icon, but she may have finally done with this new rendition of “Break My Soul (Queens Remix).” The Renaissance remix track is originally known with these lyrics, “Badu, Lizzo, Kelly Rowl.” But last night during her Renaissance show Mrs. Carter replaced the original lyrics with “Badu, Badu, Badu, Badu.” Plus the Destiny’s Child singer did not mention her former bandmate Kelly Rowland, Lauryn Hill, and Roberta Flack.

Sexual Harassment Lawsuit Against Lizzo

The complaint against Lizzo was filed in Los Angeles Superior Court on Tuesday. The “Juice” singer’s production company Big Grrrl Big Touring, Inc. (BGBT) is also named in the suit. A plaintiff describes battling with the rapper’s concerns about the dancer’s “weight gain,” according to CNN who have access to the lawsuit. Also, the captain of Lizzo’s dance team is accused of ridiculing those who had premarital sex.

JT Partook In A Hot Twitter Dispute With A Blogger

JT KenBarbie Argument Takes Place On Twitter

On Monday, Jul. 17, an argument between JT and a blogger named KenBarbie took place on Twitter. It’s unclear whether any pre-heat occurred offline. The conflict on social media allegedly started from KenBarbie tweeting a screenshot of JT’s tweet, pictures of Ice Spice, and a caption saying, “Somebody better tell JT Ice Spice already brought her ‘princess’ collar.”

The City Girls member then clapped back at the blogger claiming, “non-Black ppl once again using terms to insinuate that black women are dogs.” 

In response, KenBarbie shared that he’s “definitely 100% black.” The blogger also asked, “Why y’all always assume light skin people aren’t black? Don’t try to race bait me, you know you’re lap dog.” 

The JT KenBarbie Argument Continues

The brawl then went on with KenBarbie claiming he “don’t fight women, though,” and asking whether he should fight Lil Uzi Vert instead, whom he also referred to as “Leslie.”

KenBarbie also discussed a recent situation with JT and Lil Uzi at BET Awards. At the time, both got into a heated dispute, which many related to Lil Uzi’s obscure flirting with Ice Spice prior. So did KenBarbie, who tweeted, “Where was this energy when [Ice Spice] played in your face? Talking bout she the girl of your man dreams after playing with him DIRECTLY in your face? You know who to try, huh?”

On top of that, KenBarbie brought up JT’s old tweet, where she said she “[loves] pretty dark skin girls.” She also claimed that “milky ways be the shit.” KenBarbie posted a screenshot of this tweet, also claiming that “trying to race bait when this is you is crazy.”

A lot went on afterward, including discussions about JT’s private life and alleged unwillingness to fight other women since they can fight back. “She never has this energy for women,” KenBarbie claimed. “She’s just giving y’all a show because at the end of the day.. she knows I don’t touch women. But where’s this energy for the girls? That’s why Ice Spice gagged her at the awards and left untouched and KEPT trolling her right after.”

In the end, the conflict went down by itself without any significant mark, showing its conclusion.

Previous Brawl

It is also not the first time JT and KenBarbie have gotten into a Twitter argument. In Nov. 2022, the Twitter blogger claimed that “JT and Uzi split up this time because he was creeping with a model in LA.” The City Girls member responded, “As long as me & Uzi been officially it’s been fiction.”

Hip-Hop Legend Dr. Dre On The Current State Of The Genre

Dr Dre

Dr. Dre recently had an interview with Kevin Hart on the comedian’s show that streams on Peacock. The hitmaker described those who are shining a negative light on hip-hop today sounds like somebody’s grandfather. Dr. Dre went on to emphasize that the genre is always evolving. He stressed that if you don’t like hip-hop now, then don’t listen to it. The iconic producer said he doesn’t like most of the genre’s music out right now, but he isn’t hating on it.

What Is Dr. Dre Listening To Right Now?

The hip-hop icon was asked who in the genre does he listen to, and the question did not catch him off guard. The Compton native said he gets asked that all the time, but he listens to different types of music. Andre Romell Young, also known as Dr. Dre, revealed the genre he listens to stems from 70s soul to The Beatles. Young even shared he might listen to some polka music after his interview with Hart.  It would make sense the musical genius has an eclectic ear for any genre of music. Dr. Dre then added he “gets inspiration from all types of genres of music.” He could not give the actor a favorite artist but instead complimented his answer by calling it a “favorite of the week.”

Dr. Dre Talks About A “Forever Artist”

Dre spoke on fellow rapper Kendrick Lamar. He made sure it was known that the former president of Death Row Records takes no credit for Lamar’s success. However, Dr. Dre admitted he takes credit for opening the door for him and that’s it. Dre praised the “Humble” rapper calling him a real artist and revealing they have a “fantastic” relationship. Young added the 36-year-old is what people call a “forever artist,” which is someone who can disappear for years and make an enormous comeback. The 58-year-old clarified a “forever artist” is also someone who does not have to drop music all the time to stay relevant. Dr. Dre also considers Snoop Dogg and Eminem “forever artists.”

Ice Spice Turns Down XXL Freshman Cover

Ice Spice has reportedly turned down the XXL Freshman 2023 cover, which obviously shocked the hip-hop world. The cover consists of rappers on the rise, including Tia Corine, Lola Brooke, GloRilla, Fridayy and Finesse2tymes. When everyone saw the magazine cover released on Wednesday, questions swirled around about why the drill princess wasn’t featured on it.

Why Did Ice Spice Decline the Offer?

According to TMZ, the drill rapper had to decline a spot because of her hectic schedule such as festival bookings and feature requests. Therefore, it was hard to meet the requirements she had to for XXL’s freshman class. The New York rapper is in hot demand right now and climbing the charts with hitmakers like Nicki Minaj and Taylor Swift. She is also reportedly at 1 billion streams on Spotify.

XXL Editor-in-chief Responds to Ice Spice Decline

However, we may not have the full story about the exchange between the “Bikini Bottom” rapper and XXL. When TMZ posted the news on Twitter, XXL’s Editor-in-chief replied under the post saying, “Not really the whole story or given excuse but okay.”

Ice Spice Graces Teen Vogue Cover

Ice recently graced Teen Vogue’s June cover and mentioned the “drastic change” she has entailed even though it is positive. It took less than a year for the rookie to model for Beyonce’s Adidas collection, arrive at the Met Gala, and perform in HUGE music festivals without an album. Today the “Princess Diana” rapper collaborated with the queen of rap, Nicki Minaj once again for the Barbie movie soundtrack. Her breakout single “Munch” only hit the music scene in August 2022.

Drill Rapper Taken Over New York

Drill was originally from Chicago, found its way to London and then landed in New York City. Rappers like Bobby Shmurda and Pop Smoke made the genre known around the country. However, the 23-year-old sealed the deal with “Munch,” – showing that the females are just as lit as the males in drill.

Diddy’s Son Arrested For DUI

Sean Combs’ career is remarkable from launching Bad Boy Records to partnership with Ciroc vodka. A career with highs and lows, but he managed to climb his way back to the top every time. This monumental moment occurring as his son, Justin Combs, was arrested for DUI in L.A on June 4, 2023. He was booked on misdemeanor charges and released on a $5,000 bond. Justin’s mother, Misa Hylton, later blamed Diddy after their son’s arrest. She did not hold back, getting a few jabs in on his newest song with the City Girls and Fabulous “Act Bad.” The fashion designer wrote in her Instagram story, “Act BAD BAD boy. I used to want to be a BAD Girl, I chose to be a QUEEN tried and true. I’m not perfect but I am INTENTIONAL.”

Puff and Misa Make Peace?

However, the pair seemed to make amends as they had a friendly exchange on Instagram. The music mogul shared a video on Instagram and used the hashtag “#f***itfriday.” Hylton agreed under the clip saying, “YUP that’s how I feel everyday.” The Bad Boys executive’s response was, “I love you queen. Stay in the light.” But according to People, the comments are no longer there.
