Pusha T Declares Upcoming "King Push" Album To Be "Flawless"

Pusha T is feeling confident about his upcoming album, at least according to some self-congratulatory comments made in a group chat, which were recently made public.

The former Clipse rapper, whose real name is Terrence Thornton, called the album “flawless” and “so goooooooooood” in messages revealed by Def Jam AR Steven Victor.

Victor himself backed Push up, agreeing with the “flawless” assessment and deeming it the album of year.

Push’s first solo studio album, My Name Is My Name, dropped in 2013 and featured a reunited Neptunes (Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo) handling production duties. King Push – Darkest Before Dawn: The Prelude dropped in 2015 and was billed as a “warm-up” to the upcoming King Push.

Kanye West, who will be producing King Push, said the album is set to drop May 25, which will be followed by a solo Kanye project, a Kanye and Kid Cudi dual project, a Nas album, and a Teyana Taylor project, all overseen by Kanye.

Afroman Settles Lawsuit Over Punching Woman During Performance

Biloxi, MS – Afroman, best known for his 2001 single “Because I Got High,” has reached a settlement over a 2015 incident in which he punched a woman who jumped on stage while he was performing. Mississippi’s WLOX News first reported news of Afroman and the victim intending to settle the lawsuit, and TMZ’s sources confirmed the case won’t be going to trial.

Haley Byrd, the victim, was suing Afroman and Biloxi venue Kress Live after the one-hit wonder smacked her in the face during a performance in 2015. Afroman previously pled guilty to assault and avoided jail time following the attack, but Byrd filed a civil suit against him and the venue.

Byrd, who already settled the case with Kress Live, was suing for negligence and defamation. The suit claimed Afroman was guilty of libel and slander in the 2016 song “Get Off The Stage,” which seemingly references the incident. Afroman raps lines such as, “Then turn around, try to sue for dough/ Attention-wanting, gold-digging hoe” and “Please don’t jump on the stage with ‘Fro/ I reach back like a pimp and slap the hoe.”

Terms of the settlement haven’t been made public at this time. Byrd’s attorney Tim Holleman said they will be disclosed once all parties sign the agreement.
