I Wanted To ‘Commit Suicide’ Following Prostitute Allegations, Says Cardi B

Published

on

Cardi B, the US rapper, says she felt “suicidal” over the claims spread about her by a prominent YouTube channel.

According to TMZ, the rapper testified before a federal jury in Georgia yesterday in response to what she dismissed as a “malicious campaign” to hurt her reputation.

A vlogger identified as Latasha Kebe (Tasha K) had made several video posts in 2018 and 2019.

In the videos, she had claimed that Cardi B had been a prostitute at which time the rapper contracted multiple sexually transmitted infections (STIs).

Tasha K’s videos included claims that the music star had herpes and another about a shocking incident with a beer bottle.

The YouTuber’s allegations had prompted Cardi B to file a lawsuit, putting Tasha K on trial before the court.

Taking the witness stand on the fourth day of the trial, the rapper spoke of what she described as the toll taken on her by the blogger’s allegedly defamatory posts.

Cardi B said she felt “helpless” as Tasha K continued to broadcast “lies” about her to a nearly 1 million audience.

“I felt extremely suicidal. I felt defeated and depressed and I didn’t want to sleep with my husband. I felt like only a demon could do that,” Cardi B was quoted as saying in court.

The trial was adjourned until next week Tuesday.

Gospel singer Testimony Jaga gives Portable 3 days to apologise for slapping preacher

Testimony Jaga, the Nigerian gospel singer, has given Portable a three-day ultimatum to apologise to the preacher he slapped.

The ‘Zazoo Zeh’ hitmaker was heavily criticised on social media on Monday for slapping the man who he claimed was preaching close to his bar.

Jaga, while joining the chorus of condemnation against Portable, said he should have reported to the right authorities if the preacher’s actions were wrong.

In a video shared on his Instagram page, the gospel artiste claimed to have received divine instruction to advocate for the preacher.

He also warned Portable to issue a public apology within three days or face consequences.

“I’m giving you three days to apologise to that man,” he wrote.

“If that man Portable slapped is doing something wrong, can’t he call the law enforcement agencies to arrest him?

“Even if he does not like what the man was doing, he could have easily chased him away not slap him. That is somebody’s father, husband and uncle.

“If the pastor was a famous person who uses security guards, would he have slapped him? It is because the man has no one.

“I’m not against Portable, he might have done it out of pride but if he realises what he did, he should go and apologize to the man and make a video.

“That’s a mockery of someone’s God. Telling the man to go and call his God, is mockery. He has called his God and that’s why someone like me is talking now.

“God has told me to fight for the man. Who are we to judge anyone?”

Dammy Krane petitions police over rift with Davido, demands $500k payment

Dammy Krane has petitioned Kayode Egbetokun, the inspector general of police, over his lingering dispute with Davido.

The feud between the pair started in October 2023 after Krane called out Davido on social media, claiming he owed him for songwriting contributions.

Krane also accused the ‘Assurance’ hitmaker of sabotaging his record deal with Sony Music.

In response to the allegations, Davido labeled Krane “ungrateful” and claimed he received no payment for their collaborations. Davido also mentioned that he provided shelter and support for Krane when he was homeless.

Since then, Krane has continued to attack Davido on social media; even accusing him of being involved in the death of his friend Tagbo Umeike. Tagbo died from alleged alcohol poisoning in October 2017.

Davido dismissed claims and threatened to sue Krane for “defamation of character and cyberbullying”.

In a letter posted on his social media pages, Krane accused Davido of several wrongdoings while addressing five key concerns.

The singer alleged that Davido and his allies are threatening his life. He also called for the re-opening of Tagbo’s death case.

Krane pleaded with the inspector-general to help lift the restrictions on his bank accounts, which he claimed made it difficult for him to access his funds.

The singer also appealed to Egbetokun to get Davido to “pay me all the money he owed for the song ‘Pere’”.

He claimed Davido agreed to pay him $500,000 for their collaborative song but has refused to pay him.
