Kehlani attends the Suicide Squad movie premiere
Kehlani made waves this week releasing her single “Gangsta”, a contribution to DC Comic’s Suicide Squad movie soundtrack. Shortly after she dazzled the red carpet and made her appearance at the movie’s premiere. This is just yet another huge accolade for the Grammy nominated Kehlani. What could she possibly do next?! We’d certainly love to see an album release soon.
20 kids, 20 ice creams, Sky Balla shows the youth some love
Sky Balla shot a music video this week and took some time away from filming to treat some youth to goodies from ice cream truck. It’s great to see artists doing something positive for the kids. Even something as simple as a free ice cream goes a long way toward making a lucky child’s day. Shout out to Sky Balla for taking care of the lil homies.

Philthy love the kids: East Oakland rapper plans a backpack giveaway
Philthy Rich is throwing a backpack giveaway for the kids in Oakland on Saturday, August 6th at Youth Uprising in East Oakland. Among all the whirlwind that has been Philthy’s music career in 2016, it’s admirable to see the Sem City Money Man still making time to help out the youth in his neighborhood. A lot of rappers are flexing their wealth but few are leveraging it for a good cause. Come out tomorrow to support the giveaway!
Draymond Green mistakenly flashes his Snapchat followers his junk
Draymond Green unfortunately took another L this week by accidently sharing a very private photo to his very public Snapchat story. The Warriors’ power forward seems to have intended to share the photo with a lucky lady, however mistakenly sent his whole Snapchat audience a photo of his penis. Draymond quickly deleted the photo after 10 minutes and followed it up by tweeting that he was hacked (very original bud). We’ll always hold down our Dubs though! Even though Draymond Peen sent out a dick pic to thousands of his fans, at least he isn’t cocky as Lebron.
