Extrim:
Rapper Joe Budden has apologized to fellow rapper Logic after his rants following Logic's retirement.

The 30 year old, had announced his retirement with his next album saying he wanted to be able to spend some more time with his family.

This led the host of the Joe Budden Podcast to say a couple of things regarding the Maryland born rapper's retirement which were kind of sassy.

"They happy that he's leaving. Why the Bleep do you think I got the fucking celebration song queued up man?

"Let's celebrate Logic getting the Bleep outta here nigga. You should've retired a long time ago, Logic."

Every member of the podcast have had their fair share of expressing their own opinion on Logic's music and his decade-long career.

But with all of Budden's backlash and calling him the worst rapper of all time, Logic has never responded or paid attention to it.

On Thursday, 23 July, 2020, Budden actually apologized for mocking his retirement from the hip hop scene.

"Logic, I'm sorry man. Log let me tell you what happened...Log last week I came in here feeling pretty tumultuous.

"Fresh out of Twitter jail, unable to properly read the room and just hating myself and life, honestly.

"And unfortunately, I projected some of that unto you, Log. And, for that, I want to apologize."

Budden goes on to mention and acknowledge the fact that Logic had retired without any trouble.

"That was wrong of me. I should be able to think that you aren't the best rapper in the world, but celebrate your retirement.

"Because that is a time where somebody should be happy and look back on their career and get they shit off and be with their fans.

"Nobody wants to hear from this fucking old grumpy Bleep saying,'Bleep you and shut up.' Especially after that guy was allowed to retire peacefully. I felt bad."

Logic since announcing his retirement went on to sign a million dollar deal with Twitch.

What do you feel about Budden's apology?

There has been a lot going on in the Kardashian/West home following a rant on Twitter and Kanye West apologizes.

Yeezy had admitted to getting a divorce with his reality star wife Kim Kardashian after a prison reform Meek Mill visit.

Other than that, Ye had made a lot of statements that were deemed controversial and a little bit concerning.

But the billionaire rapper's wife had come out to blame all of his rants on his mental status at the time where in her statement she said;

"As many of you may know, Kanye has bipolar disorder.

"Anyone who has this or has a loved one in their life who does, knows how incredibly complicated and painful it is to understand."

Although, the rapper has come out to apologize to his wife for putting their relationship problems outside.

On Saturday, July 25, 2020, Ye took to Twitter to publicly give his apology to the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star;

"I would like to apologize to my wife Kim for going public with something that was a private matter.

"I did not cover her like she has covered me. To Kim I want to say I know I hurt you. Please forgive me. Thank you for always being there for me."

We only hope that all is forgiven though.

Tell us what you think.

The next on the franchise is titled 'No Time To Die' which will be released in November and now we wonder who would be the 'Next James Bond.'

Daniel Craig stated that he'd be retiring from the franchise, making him the longest serving 007 agent in history.

It is no news that one day Craig was definitely going to drop the role and now there is a search for a prospect.

As the Englishman is preparing to drop the role, it is really interesting as to who will come up to reprise the role as 007.

There had been a particular time where rumor had spread stating that fellow English actor was leading for the role.

But as it stands, two men may have taken the spot with James Norton leading ahead of Sam Heughan.

James Norton has starred in numerous film and television series including Happy Valley, War And Peace and McMafia.

He had also received awards for Best Supporting Actor in the Crime Thriller Awards, Man Of The Year in The Glamour Awards and others.

Sam Heughan has also been in great movies including Bloodshot, The Spy Who Dumped Me and Where The Starlight Ends.

The Scottish actor has also starred in Outlander bagging two awards for Best Actor and Favorite British Artist.

It is sure and definite that they both fit the role but who would get it though we'll just  have to see.

Currently James Norton's betting favorite at 6/4 edges Heughan who's at 3/1.


Who do you think should get the role?

[center] The Birds of Prey sequel has been cancelled according to reports because of the poor performance of the first film.

A lot of movies have been put on hold due to the outbreak of the corona virus, and a lot of theaters have been closed all over the world.

Now though, it seems a lot of countries have eased up on the lock-down.

The first Birds of Prey performed so poorly unlike another movie that was also released at the same time Sonic the Hedgehog.

Both movies are two of those that were privileged to be released during the COVID-19 period.

Despite some love for the movie, the Harley Quinn movie didn't really perform well on the market, making just $200 million on ticket sales.

This has got to be the worst in the DCEU.

Apparently, as it stands Warner Bros may have lost faith in its creative team and have decided to discard a second one.


What are your thoughts though?[/center]

I just re-watched it from 1 - 5

[center]Probably one of the best teen drama in the history on Teen dramas, the 90210 cast contains some of the best people to graze the show's remake.
The show ran September 2008 to May 2013, 5 years of love, romance, fighting, produced by CBS Television Studios.
Just like its first installment 'Beverly Hills 90210', the story follows rich kids and their life while they attend Beverly Hills High School in Carlifornia.
As the show goes on, telling their story after they graduated and now have to face life after High School, some face career, others face furthering their education.

But as the show goes on, the stories of other characters started to creep in with the addition of Erin Silver, Navid Shirazi's father's business and more.
If you don't know who Erin Silver is, she is the half-sister to Kelly Taylor and David Silver from the original series.
Some characters from the start of the show didn't continue after season two e.g Rob Estes, Dustin Milligan, Jessica Walter.
The show then introduced Matt Lanter, Trevor Donovan and Gillian Zinser.

AnnaLynne McCord

AnnaLynne McCord played the role of the rich, bratty, selfish and beautiful Naomi Clarke who only sees herself in every situation.
She was definitely one of the shows leading ladies who would never want to lose whether right or wrong.

One of his songs is featured on the show, and now he is signed to Roc Nation which is under Jay Z.

Jessica Stroup

Michael Steger

Michael Steger portrays Navid Shirazi, the son of the biggest pornography producer in the world who owns Shirazi Studios.
He received praises for the portrayal of the role, playing a teenager in his late twenties.
Navid Shirazi was a character that Michael was pleased to play in but for a main character he doesn't secure much anymore.

Matt Lanter

Matt Lanter's role as Liam Court was a young dude who could get any girl he wanted by doing basically nothing.
His character grew to a more handsome and rebellious individual and also grew an acting career.
Matt had gotten small time roles before the show and later gained notoriety and everyone wanted him more.
He has since been in movies like Star Wars: The Force Awakens and also TV shows like Timeless.

Kim Kardashian has spoken out on her husband's Twitter rants and blames it on Kanye West's mental health.
The comments by the rapper have been deemed a little bit concerning and controversial. Kanye had said he tried to get a divorce with his wife.
But Kim has come out to say it is affected by his bipolar disorder.

In her statement, she said;

"As many of you know, Kanye has bi-polar disorder.
"Anyone who has this or has a loved one in their life who does, knows how incredibly complicated and painful it is to understand.
"I've never spoken publicly about how this has affected us at home.
"Because I am very protective of our children and Kanye's right to privacy when it comes to his health.
"But today, I feel like I should comment on it because of the stigma and misconceptions about mental health."

The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star stated he could not be forced into anything since he is an adult.
Therefore, he cannot be forced to receive treatment.

"People who are unaware or far removed from this experience can be judgmental.
"And to understand that the individual themselves how to engage in the process of getting help no matter how hard family and friends try.

She also added that the loss of the rapper's mother, Donda West, had had an impact on him lately.

"I understand Kanye is subject to criticism because he is a public figure and his actions at times can cause strong opinions emotions.
"He is a brilliant but complicated person who on top of the pressure of being an artist and a Black man, experienced the painful loss of his mother.
"And has to deal with the pressure and isolation that is heightened by his bi-polar disorder.
"Those who are close with Kanye know his heart and understand his words sometimes do not align with his intentions."

Kim K. went on to plead with the public and fans to show compassion as they are helping Kanye through his illness.

"We as a society talk about giving grace to the issue of mental health as a whole.
"However we should also give it to the individuals who are living with it in times when they need it the most.
"I kindly ask that the media and public give us the compassion and empathy that is needed so that we can get through this.
"Thank you for those who have expressed concern for Kanye's well being and for your understanding."

Do you notice that some actors tend to play their real life personality even in movies? How?
Actors always capture our attentions when they play that character we love or the character we imagine them playing.
It's always cool to see actors take a different identity we may love but sometimes, we just want to see them been them.
Every human has an alter ego, a different persona. While there are some who are different onscreen and off-screen, there are those who are the same any time and day.
Sometimes playing a character that relates to you is actually easier for you.
Wanna see these actors who are the same on and off-screen? Continue reading to know them;


Samuel L. Jackson

Both on and off screen, Samuel L. Jackson is known for calling things as they are, he is not one to give in to bulls**t.
In movies, everyone loves Samuel L. Jackson, they'd pay to see him.

Ryan Reynolds

The Deadpool actor is one of the best when it comes to action movies but also we can always expect comedy to tag along.
Even Ryan's wife Blake Lively testifies that it is never dull having him around.
Reynolds has been seen a lot on red carpets always been chill and everyone around him laughs hysterically.
So you can say his comedic side comes from how he is on normal grounds.

Bruce Willis

Well, he does appear to be a man who is always pretty much annoyed with everything, although we never can tell.
But, we do know that he is a man of few words. In movies, Bruce doesn't seem to be the type of person that would love to memorize a lot of lines.
He has turned out to be one of the best actors there is.

Will Smith

Will Smith is charming, and is known for not taking praise to himself but rather compliment the next man.
In some movies, Will may seem to be arrogant but he always has his charisma and kindness seem to rub off in his characters.

The Rock

The Rock, also known as Dwayne Johnson is definitely a household name in the world of movies.
Before been an actor, The Rock was already a WWE superstar and was known for his microphone skills, great and funny.
In his movies, he will always want to match his comedic side and his action side especially when paired with Kevin Hart.
Outside of the screens, The Rock remains the same big muscular and funny guy.

Kevin Hart

It would be funny to see comedian, Kevin Hart having a different personality on and off screen.
Kevin is definitely one of the best comedian to ever grace the stage, and now one of the best comedic actors.
Outside of been an actor and comedian, Kevin Hart remains Kevin Hart.

Morgan Freeman

Morgan Freeman, who doesn't love the man who talks like he is adding morals to your well being? I know I do.
Whether it be in the movies or in real life, Morgan is always funny, kind and full of style.

Robert Downey Jr.

Robert Downey Jr. is charming, cocky, reckless, and he is definitely a motor mouth as you can see on Iron man and Sherlock Holmes.
These characters both appear in his movies and his real life. As quickly as he makes friends so he rejects them.

Adam Sandler

Adam Sandler is not one to be moved by fame and riches although in his quote, he said;
"My name is Adam Sandler. I'm not particularly talented. I'm not particularly good-looking. And yet I'm a multi-millionaire."
On and off-screen, Adam just wants to make people laugh and he is contented with the life he has.


These are some of the actors that tend to play their real life personality.

Is there anyone we missed?

A lot of people including myself do try not to believe in superstition, but there are somethings that have happened that we can't get out of our minds.
Celebrities, especially musicians tend to live the craziest lives and many never live to be 30. Lately, some didn't get to 20.
Thinking about death is a scaring thing but some musicians tend to poke the beast when we look into this particular subject matter.
Many musicians have written songs, and in away or two predicted their own end which is some what weirdly accurate.
Coincidence? Let that be your decision to make because these are some musicians that predicted their deaths;

Tupac Shakur

Tupac Shakur is definitely one of the greatest rappers to have ever graced the music scene.
The New York born rapper has always been observant, understanding the society and culture and everything going on around him.
During an interview, Tupac had said in a best-case scenario, he'd end up in a cemetery or cremated. He had always expressed sincerity of an early death.
In 1996, he made a music video for his song 'I Ain't Mad at Cha', depicting him in the afterlife speaking to his loved ones.
Tupac was assassinated on 13th September 1996.


Left Eye

Left Eye born Lisa Lopez was in Honduras for a recovery sabbatical where the vehicle she was in collided with a young boy.
Although she was just a passenger, she still paid for the hospital and funeral.
Finding out that the boy's last name was Lopes, she believed a spirit was following her and meant to kill her and not the boy.
While still in Honduras, the car she was riding in swerved off the road and crashed, she didn't survive.

John Lennon

John Lennon had always told his secretary Freda Kelly that he'd never make it to 40, although he got to 40 but not 41.
The Beatles member once told reporters that he and his fellow musicians would either die in a plane crash or get shot by a loony.
In 1980, Lennon was assassinated which really wouldn't shock Johnny.

Michael Jackson

The King of Pop was generally believed to have died from an overdose of Propofol administered by Conrad Murray.
But, his daughter, Paris Jackson is one of many who does not believe his death was by accident.
In his last days though, he sent letters to his closest friends claiming he was going to be murdered, and that he is scared for his life.

XXXTentacion

Born Jahseh Dwayne Onfroy, X had always wanted kids to get and spread his message.
In October of 2016, X was arrested for severely beating and strangling his girlfriend and locked her up for two days because she was pregnant.
He posted a video in 2018 when he talked about him not seeing out his dreams and dying in a tragic way.
On June 2018. XXXTentacion was shot in what the Police believed to be a drive-by.

Proof

Two years prior to Proof's death, the D12 rapper had rapped about been murdered in a club.
In the song on the album D12 World, he said "I'm in the club to beef, you gotta murder me there."
Also, on Eminem's music video for "Like Toy Soldiers," Proof played the role of the deceased D12 member, Bugz.
Coincidentally, Proof was murdered in a club after an argument.


Is there anyone we left out?

The Masked Singer host Nick Cannon has said that black people have turned him after he apologized to the Jewish people.

Nick had gotten a lot of backlash after his anti-Semitic remarks and now seems to be getting more for apologizing.

The rappers apology note read;

"First and foremost, I extend my deepest and most sincere apologies to my Jewish sisters and brothers for the hurtful and divisie words that came out of my mouth during my interview with Richard Griffin.

"They reinforced the worst stereotypes of a proud and magnificent people and I feel ashamed of the uniformed and naive place that these words came from.

"The video of this interview has since been removed.

"While the Jewish experience encompasses more than 5,ooo years and there is so much I have yet to learn. I have had atleast a minor history lesson over the past few days and to say that it is eye opening would be a vast understatement.

"I want to express my gratitude to the Rabbis, community leaders and institutions who reached out to me to help enlighten me, instead of chastising me, I want to assure my Jewish friends, new and old, that this is only beginning of my education-I am committed to deeper connections, more profound learning and strengthening the bond between our two cultures today and everyday going forward."

After the backlash received, Nick took to Twitter expressing his emotions;

"Y'all can have this planet, I'm out.

He also tweeted;

"I hurt an entire community and it pained me to my core, I thought it couldn't get any worse. Then I watched my own community turn on me and call me a sell-out for apologizing. Good Night. Enjoy Earth."       

Now, a lot of fans are really concerned for his safety and feel he might hurt himself.

2020 BET Awards winner Megan Thee Stallion speaks out about getting shot after the arrest of Tory Lanez.

The rapper had earlier come out saying she was shot following an argument seeing her hospitalized.

She has now come out to speak the lack of safety and the protection of black women, which she shared on her Twitter page.

"Black women are so unprotected and we hold so many things in to protect the feelings of others w/o considering our own.

"It might be funny to y'all on the internet and just another messy topic for you to talk about but this is my real life and I'm real life hurt and traumatized."

Her message followed after news stating Tory Lanez had shot her in the foot following an argument in their car.

Although there is an unidentified third person, Megan's friend Kelsey Nicole said she was with them but didn't handle the gun.

Nigerian suspected fraudster, Ramon Abbas popularly known as Hushpuppi has had his request for bail denied by the United States.
Ramon's lawyer, Gal Pissetzky had earlier made claims saying that the FBI had kidnapped his client from Dubai to USA.
He also claimed that Ramon ran a legitimate business seeing him earn as an Instagram celebrity to pay for his $10,000 flat in Dubai.
Pissetzky had applied for his client to leave with an electronic tag but had his proposition opposed by the US prosecutors.
His lawyer had intended for him to go live with his uncle but the prosecutors believe he can commit a crime with just a smartphone and internet connection.

To them, Hushpuppi poses as a flight risk.

In response to the prosecutors claims, Pissetzky stated that the Nigerian had a lot to lose if he flees the country.

"He is loved, respected and he is a celebrity.
"I don't see the reason why he would want to ruin his credibility in the world and his status rather than stay here and face this allegation.
"Anywhere he goes, people will know.
"Having grown up very poor in Nigeria, Mr. Abbas is now paid to pose with high-priced items like Louis Vuitton bags that people would buy after seeing his posts on Instagram.
"He is an influencer. That's a job today, as much as it is hard to imagine, this is actually a full time job."

In spite of this, Judge Jeffery Gilbert denied him bail on grounds of him been a flight risk and will have him remanded till he appears in court in Carlifornia.
