Popular Mzansi rapper Cassper Nyovest says he is a faithful and honest man after being saved, nearly a month after tying the knot with his childhood sweetheart Pulane.In a recent interview on the L-Tido podcast, the rapper spoke of how different life was after becoming a Christian and getting married.

 

 

 
“I’m stepping up to what a man’s supposed to do, responsibilities. I was saved and I was basically saved for five months. I hadn’t had sex since I got saved,” he said.In a recent interview on the L-Tido podcast, the rapper spoke of how different life was after becoming a Christian and getting married.

“I’m stepping up to what a man’s supposed to do, responsibilities. I was saved and I was basically saved for five I got saved,” he said.When asked about his relationship with his baby’s mother Thobeka, Cassper said he respected her and was working on co-parenting with her.

In early February Cassper, during an interview with podcaster Mpoomy Ledwaba, revealed he and Thobeka had been separated for two years.“I hurt my baby mama so much. We broke up. I’ve been single for two years We broke up because I hurt her. And then I carried on living this life. She got saved, which is so beautiful, but then it became more hectic because now she is looking at me like: ‘This is the father of my child?’” he said.

“I was messing up. I did not have a female friend I would just keep as friends. Even in my mind, even if nothing happened. I was bad. I was really bad and I didn’t realise how wrong it was.”

Rick Ross had a few more jabs for Drake following Akademiks‘ ruling that the Bawse had a better diss against the OVO rapper than Kendrick Lamar. Following the release of K. Dot’s “Euphoria” on Tuesday (April 30), Ak shared his thoughts regarding the ongoing Hip Hop Battle Royale in a post shared to X (formerly Twitter).Unpopular Opinion… Rick Ross had a better Drake diss than Kendrick. at least that nigga came w some Jokes. BBL DRIZZY funny…” he wrote. “Kendrick just said the same shit.. 15 other niggas done said. even that funny or clever.”Retweeting the post, Ross echoed some of the jabs from his Drake diss track, “Champagne Moments.” he said, referring to claims he previously made about the Canadian superstar getting cosmetic surgery.
Over a sample of Teddy Pendergrass’ “You’re My Latest, My Greatest Inspiration,” Kendrick Lamar kicks off “euphoria” by referring to a “pathetic master manipulator” who is “paranoid,” “spiraling” and “fabricating stories on the family front.”

 

 

 

From there, he throws jab after jab — and even a few haymakers — at Drake, using everything from his parenting skills, the alleged use of ghostwriters, and rumored plastic surgery to his appearance, tough guy persona, and attitude towards women as ammo.

The Pulitzer Prize winner also accuses Drizzy of sending a cease and desist letter in an attempt to have “Like That,” his chart-topping collaboration with Future and Metro Boomin that reignited their long-simmering feud, taken down.Meanwhile on Rick Ross’ “Champagne Moments,” the Miami native accused Drake of getting surgery on his nose to appear more “white.”

That’s why you had an operation to make your nose smaller than your father’s nose, n-gga,” he said in the outro of the song.

He also explains why the former collaborators fell out in the first place, adding: “I unfollowed you, n-gga, ’cause you sent the motherfucking cease-and-desist to French Montana, , hating on my dog project.”

Ross has been using the release of “euphoria” to taunt Drake more, saying on his Instagram Story earlier this week: “Stop. Don’t respond, don’t respond. You ain’t even peep when the intro came on with the Teddy Pendergrass [sample] — that was that Black vibe. Don’t do it

Chrisean Rock is addressing online comments about her son with Blueface having health problems, and she says he has no issues whatsoever. During an Instagram Live stream on Sunday (April 29), Chrisean responded to specific claims about her son Chrisean Jr. being blind or mentally challenged.“My child is blessed. He be talking, walking, playing football, everything,” she said. “Who is y’all to tell me what he’s diagnosed with and what he looks like and what he sounds like?

 

 

 

“Y’all don’t know nothing about God and don’t know nothing about nothing if you’re talking to me like that. So I rebuke everything y’all say about my child, to be honest. All the glory to God, bro.”She continued: “Y’all gon’ be looking real stupid. He’s straight. He’s a billion-dollar baby, so stay tuned. No, he’s not blind. No, he’s not fucking retarded. He’s a fucking child.

“That’s all y’all wanna sit up and talk about. My baby’s blessed from his head to his toes. Y’all forget when he got dedicated on the seventh day? I’m not even addressing anything .”Shortly after his birth in September, social media was convinced that Chrisean Jr. had fetal alcohol syndrome, especially with Blue himself claiming that his ex smoked and drank throughout her pregnancy.
