American Hip-Hop Star Young Thug Says He Doesn’t give a f**k about Kanye West, Donald Trump, & Prison
“I’m a cold-hearted motherfu**er, I don’t give a f**k about people.”
With those words, Young Thug introduces himself to France in a sprawling conversation with the French interview series Clique. The conversation starts off with the “Pacifier” rapper asking how to say “Suck my dick” in French and explaining why he’s so controversial. “There has got to be a bad guy for everybody to blame. If not, who they gone blame, the good guy?”
He also goes into detail about his writing process. “I don’t write,” he explains. “You won’t ever see a Young Thug paper with no songs on it.”
“You heard they found another Earth?” He asks the interviewer, before diving into his extraterrestrial roots. “It’s the same as Earth but 10 times bigger. I’m probably from there.”
Thug describes his relationship with Kanye West, who he claims compared him to Bob Marley. He says that he and Kanye are “identical,” adding, “I don’t compare myself to nobody but he do the same thing. It’s a rhythm, a special sauce you can’t give away.”
“I don’t know what the f**k they thinking…letting him be president,” says Thug when asked about Donald Trump. “Maybe my self-esteem need to be up there like him, like, ‘I’m the fu**ing president.’”
Thug continues with astute political observation when he’s asked for his views on the American prison system. Noting that his brother is in prison, he says that sentences should be lowered dramatically. “What the f**k they talkin’ about, locking people up for 50 years? They should lock them up for five years,” he says, adding, “Let everybody out of prison.”
The 24-year-old also reveals that he is a father to six kids, and had his first at 14. “I’ve got three boys and three girls, perfection!”

Plantashun Boiz attempted reunions failed because I wasn’t invited, says Blackface
Blackface, the Nigerian dancehall singer, says Plantashun Boiz, a defunct music group, multiple attempts to reunite failed because he was not included.
Formed in 2000 with 2Baba and Faze, Plantashun Boiz disbanded in 2004 but briefly reunited in 2007 for an album.
In a recent episode of the ‘Curiosity Made Me Ask’ podcast, the host asked Blackface if there was any chance that the group might come back together.
The singer disclosed that his colleagues had attempted to reunite without him but were unsuccessful.
“Without me, they have tried and they have failed. Many times. You saw them in all those shows that they were going,” he said.
“They tried but they failed. But what I must say is I’m the plantation. So let it be known. Forget the fake memo that they spread before.”
In September, Blackface called for the reunion of the defunct music group.
He urged fans to join the mission, emphasising that “unity is strength, not division”.
“My people oya make una talk put mouth for this matter! We are on a mission for world peace and it’s not a small-time thing,” he said in pidgin English.
Since 2015, Blackface constantly tackled 2Baba for recording 2004 hit ‘African Queen’ which he claimed he wrote.
In 2017, he argued that 2Baba “sabotaged” his career in the music industry.

Despite feud, Peter Okoye celebrates Paul on 43rd birthday
Peter ‘Mr P’ Okoye, the Nigerian singer, has celebrated Paul ‘Rudeboy’ Okoye, his twin brother, on their 43rd birthday amid their ongoing feud.
The twin brothers have been in the public eyes since their second fallout in August.
They had their first rift in 2017 which led to the dissolution of Psquare, their music brand. Though they reunited in November 2021, their reconciliation was short-lived.
Paul recently revealed another fallout, accusing Peter of orchestrating his arrest by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Peter, however, denied the allegations and accused Jude Okoye, their older brother, of diverting millions of dollars from their joint account into a secret company.
Responding to the accusations, Jude said he had done everything possible, even “sacrificing himself,” to mend the rift between his brothers.
In an Instagram post on Monday, Peter shared several photos showcasing their growth over the years.
He also celebrated their birthday while wishing himself as well as his twin brother more wins.

Tiwa Savage calls out Wizkid fan for bullying
Wizkid’s group of fans collectively known as “Wizkid FC” are popular for their vehement support for Wizkid and their antagonism toward those considered his rivals.
Tiwa Savage is the latest artist to call out Wizkid FC for harassment after some members of the fanbase mocked her for releasing a song on the same day as Wizkid.
On November 15, 2024, Ruger released his new song ‘Toma Toma’ featuring Tiwa Savage which she shared on her Instagram page with the caption “Told yall this one is special. The @rugerofficial called and I answered”.
In response, a Wizkid fan said “Dey play, nothing special pass Wizzy hits”.
The reply rubbed off wrongly on Tiwa Savage who said “Because I am promoting music? WTF…y’all are not fans anymore ooo you guys are actual bullies”.
