Freddie Gibbs had a question for Wale after the D.C. rapper posted a photo of himself posing next to his Porsche. Gibbs took to Twitter with a re-tweet of the picture and asked, “Why you got a handicap joint in your car?”
Wale replied, “I can’t drive,” although he didn’t offer any more context.
The photo, which appeared to be taken on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, California, eventually made the rounds. Once fans got involved, they started telling Gibbs to mind his own business. Others joked Wale was simply trying to get “good parking.” Some were even focused on his headwear, with many calling it the ugliest hat they’d ever seen.

Whatever the case, Gibbs is known for his vicious sense of humor and sharp wit—and he loves trolling people. Although he often blurs the lines between humor and controversy, most of his jabs at fellow artists are playful in nature. Gibbs’ approach to social media is unique; he views trolling as part of his creative process, even going so far as to create burner accounts to keep his online antics fresh and unpredictable.
However, Gibbs once faced criticism for posting a video of a man having a mental breakdown, which some perceived as insensitive. Additionally, his long-standing feud with Akademiks has been marked by personal attacks and heated exchanges, with both parties trading insults and accusations. Gibbs even went as far to produce Teletubbies merch targeting Akademiks.
Despite any controversies, Gibbs remains unapologetic about his online behavior, often using comedy to deflect criticism.
Gibbs’ latest album, You Only Die 1nce, was released in November 2024 via AWAL Recordings. The 13-track project served as a follow-up to his critically acclaimed $oul $old $eparately and continued Gibbs’ tradition of delivering raw, introspective storytelling.
Narrated by Slink Johnson (known as Black Jesus from Cartoon Network), the album explores themes of stardom, personal struggles and existential musings, all while Gibbs is metaphorically pursued by Satan. Standout tracks include “Brick Fees,” inspired by Three 6 Mafia, and “It’s Your Anniversary,” which samples Tony! Toni! Toné!.

Jeannie Mai opened up about the emotional aftermath of her split from rapper Jeezy and how raising their daughter Monaco alone has become her greatest source of strength and self-discovery.
Speaking publicly after their highly publicized divorce, finalized following Jeezy’s September 2023 filing, Jeannie Mai reflected on the unexpected reality of parenting solo.
“Because it’s never what you picture, you know? You don’t ideally think to have a child and have that whole responsibility to yourself,” she told Sherri Shepherd.
The former The Real co-host described the experience as both challenging and empowering.
“I realized that the gift in being a single mom is that you learn how to trust yourself,” she said. “You learn that you good, you got it, you know instinctively what to do.”
Jeannie Mai and Jeezy started dating in late 2018 after meeting on the set of her daytime talk show.
They made their relationship public in 2019 and tied the knot in an intimate ceremony at their Atlanta home in March 2021. Their daughter Monaco was born in January 2022.
But the marriage unraveled quickly. Jeezy filed for divorce in Fulton County Superior Court in September 2023, citing that the relationship was “irretrievably broken.”
Since then, Mai has accused him of infidelity and alleged “explosive outbursts, excessive drinking, and domestic violence,” claims Jeezy has denied.
Despite the turmoil, Mai says motherhood has helped her reconnect with herself.
“You don’t have to check with anybody else. You know exactly what your daughter needs in love, you know exactly how your children need to be seen and heard,” she explained.
She also shared how raising Monaco has helped her heal old wounds.
“I’m reparenting myself through Monaco and I’m learning that I always had it.”
Their divorce was finalized earlier this year, closing a chapter that began with a proposal in April 2020 and ended in a courtroom three years later.

Sean Kingston addressed his followers for the first time since he and his mother, Janice Turner, were convicted in a federal fraud case involving over $1 million in stolen goods and services.
The Hip-Hop artist posted a short message to his Instagram Stories over the weekend, days after a Florida jury found the pair guilty of wire fraud and conspiracy to commit wire fraud.
“Lately they’ve been trying to break me on the daily,” Kingston wrote, seemingly quoting a new song he is working on, while adding broken heart emoji.
The verdict came on Friday (March 28), after just three hours of deliberation following a five-day trial in which prosecutors accused the duo of orchestrating a scheme to obtain luxury items—including high-end jewelry and a Cadillac Escalade—through fake wire transfers and forged documents.
Kingston, 34, was not taken into custody immediately after the verdict. He remains under house arrest with electronic monitoring. According to court records, his bail terms include a $200,000 cash bond and a $500,000 property bond.
Turner, 62, was detained on the spot.
Prosecutors argued she posed a flight risk due to her criminal history and called her the “fixer and mastermind” behind the operation. Both were labeled “masters of deception” by the government during closing arguments.
Each of the five counts—one for conspiracy and four for wire fraud—carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison. Sentencing is set for July 11, 2025.

Blac Chyna is sharing insights about co-parenting with her famous exes, Tyga and Rob Kardashian, emphasizing the importance of clear communication and firm boundaries.
During a recent sit-down with Access Hollywood, the 36-year-old reality star and entrepreneur didn’t hold back when asked about her best advice for navigating shared parenting duties.
“I think the main thing is communication,” Chyna began. “And also, learning your boundaries.”
She further explained her stance, adding, “Sometimes people lose themselves and they’re so caught up in the other parent’s business to where they can’t even focus on themselves. But ultimately, focus on the kid, show respect, have boundaries and communication, and you should have a healthy co-parenting life.”
Blac Chyna also had some advice for those tempted to rekindle the flame with their co-parents.
She strongly advised against mixing romance with parenting duties, urging parents to clearly separate the two. “If you say you’re done, be done. Don’t be off and on with them… that can stir up some stuff,” she warned.
The former relationship drama involving Chyna has been well-documented over the years.
She first became a mother in 2012, welcoming son King with rapper Tyga. Although the pair got engaged, they called it quits in 2014.
Two years later, Chyna made headlines again when she and reality TV personality Rob Kardashian welcomed daughter Dream. Their whirlwind romance and engagement ended abruptly after just six months, sparking intense media coverage.
Despite past controversies, Blac Chyna now describes her relationships with both exes as “splendid,” confirming in January 2024 that she maintains a balanced 50/50 custody arrangement for both King and Dream.
