What’s poppin’ Giggle Gang?! It’s only the first month of 2020 and the year’s already been a doozy! First and foremost, my thoughts and prayers go out to the family, friends and fans of Kobe Bryant, Gigi, and the 7 souls that lost their lives on January 26th. Such a tragedy.

This week, I get into Prince Harry and Meghan stepping away from the Royal family, the Grammys keep tryin’ it, Beyonce and Adidas, Lena Waithe’s love life, my trip to Nigeria and Ghana. And of course, I’ve got some beats straight from the Motherland in my Beats! All this and so much more!!

Listen. Laugh. Share.

Wow!! Giggle Gang, it’s the last episode of the decade and it’s lit! This week I touch on quite a few topics: Trap karaoke is the truth! I stand corrected, Lizzo didn’t have pants on… but she was great on SNL. Eddie Murphy returned to the SNL stage like the comedy legend that he is! Jay Z doesn’t play well at parties. LeBron James and Dwyane Wade are dope dads! Karol Sanchez should be ashamed. Trump got impeached and ppl are annoyed for all the wrong reasons. Da baby, ASAP Rocky, and Steph Curry shared more than they needed to with the internet. And we got another one- Congrats to Miss Jamaica, Toni Ann Singh as she’s been crowned the newest Miss World. And Miss Nigeria’s reaction was priceless! I see you Nyekachi! And there’s a lil Diddy bop in my beats this week. All this and more!

Giggle Gang, I’m back!! I’ve been enjoying this hot girl summer jet setting and galavanting across these United States, but I’ve missed y’all, so let’s get right to it! The 4th annual Be Out Day ATL was a major success! I had a blast and can’t wait to do it again next year. As for the city of Atlanta and it’s shenanigans, bruh y’all can have it! You gotta hear this airport cash app story. *sigh*. Jay Z’s teamed up with the NFL and folks are big mad…speaking of being big mad and the Carters, some of y’all gotta let your unnecessary hate for Beyonce go. At the bare minimum, leave me out of it! Nicki Minaj is still beefing with everybody (go figure). And A$AP Rocky wont serve anymore Swedish jail time.**blank stare** This week, in my Beats is a collab from a light skinned dynamic duo.
