One year ago last week, Kendrick Lamar set flames to Drake’s reputation that the rap world is still feeling the embers from. In just a week, songs like “Euphoria,” “6:16 In LA,” and yes, “Not Like Us,” bested Drake’s offering in their quick-draw war of words, and subsequently crowned Lamar the rapper of his generation in the eyes of many. He rode that momentum into Gnx, a 12-track album that debuted at Number One on the Billboard 200. That’s the tidal wave of energy he rode into the...

When Tim Roth was first approached to co-star inGridlock’d(1997), he was hesitant about working with Tupac Shakur.

According to THR, in a recent discussion at Luxembourg City Film Fest, Roth revealed the journey that ultimately led to him acting alongside legendary music and film icon Tupac. The film, a crime comedy directed by Vondie Curtis-Hall, follows two heroin addicts, Spoon (Tupac) and Stretch (Roth), as they navigate a bureaucratic nightmare while trying to enter rehab. Westworld actress Melanie Thandiwe Newton also starred in the film. Initially, Laurence Fishburne was set to star in the film, and Roth was eager to work with him. But after Fishburne dropped out, Roth was informed that a rapper would be taking his place—an idea he immediately rejected.

"But he dropped out, and he was really a big part of the reason why I wanted to do it," Roth recalled. "So then the...

Since Kendrick Lamar took aim at Drake with his verse on Future and Metro Boomin’s “Like That” in the spring of 2024, the Compton and Canadian rappers have traded dozens of dark verses (and counting) in a beef unlike any before it. Since then, there have been accusations of domestic abuse and sexual misconduct lobbed back and forth, a massive victory lap of a concert in Los Angeles, legal filings made, and more. While the pair’s War of Words hit its biggest crescendo in May with Kendrick Lamar’s...

Updated with statement from Janet Jackson’s rep: Janet Jackson knows a lot about the Rhythm Nation, but she clearly doesn’t know anything about Vice President Kamala Harris’ heritage.

In a sprawling and at times confusing interview with The Guardian, Jackson postulated about Kamala Harris’ family background while seemingly admitting that she did not know what she was talking about.

“Well, you know what they supposedly said? She’s not Black. That’s what I heard. That she’s Indian,” she told the reporter. When the profile writer clarified that she is of both Black and South Asian heritage, Jackson answered, “Her father’s white. That’s what I was told. I mean, I haven’t watched the news in a few days. I was told they discovered her father was white.”

Following the backlash around her interview, Jackson released a statement through her manager Mo Elmasri, who told...

Lori Petty and Bobby Moynihan have been added to the cast of CBS’ upcoming “NCIS” prequel series “NCIS: Origins.” The thesps will join a cast that also features Austin Stowell, Kyle Schmid, Tyla Abercrumbie, Mariel Molino, Diany Rodriguez and Caleb Foote, with Mark Harmon serving as narrator.

In the series, Petty will play Dr. Lenora Friedman, “a seasoned pathologist at the San Diego Medical Examiner’s Office.

“NCIS: Origins” began production this past Monday; the show premieres on Monday, Oct. 14 at 9 p.m. Et. The series revolves around young Leroy Jethro Gibbs in 1991, years prior to the events of NCIS. “In the series,...

Kendrick Lamar, a name synonymous with hip-hop, just dropped a bombshell with his Not Like Us official video, and it has already painted the town red with headlines. Packed with Easter eggs and sizzling digs, this release isn’t just a feather in Lamar’s cap—it’s an entire peacock strut.

With a powerhouse combo of Dave Free and Lamar at the helm of the video’s direction, every frame honors the West Coast vibes that have long been the lifeblood of the latter’s work. Fans have already taken notice of Lamar’s fiancée Whitney Alford and their two kids, who can be seen dancing in a living room in the Not Like Us video.

The best episodes of The Rookie perfectly balance drama and comedy while showcasing the stellar ensemble cast and engaging storylines. Character development shines in standout episodes like "Standoff" and "Time Of Death," revealing depth and emotion in intense situations. Plot twists, high-stakes drama, and dynamic relationships make episodes like "The Checklist" and "Manhunt" stand out among the rest, making them among the best The Rookie episodes (so far).

The best episodes of The Rookie highlight why the police procedural starring Nathan Fillion has become one of the most popular shows on TV. The series is a perfect balance of drama and comedy, and neither genre suffers at the hands of the other, and The Rookie makes viewers laugh and cry in equal measure. While it's centered around a 44-year-old cop in training named John Nolan (Fillion), The Rookie's ensemble cast also gets their fair share of engrossing storylines, and...

Few people appreciate fashion and costumes quite like Kim Kardashian.

The beauty and fashion mogul, Hulu star, and lawyer-to-be is never too busy to pass up an opportunity to rock a new look she spent way too much money on.

In June 2024, Kim posted several photos of her on the town to see Janet Jackson.

The Skims founder’s outing included Khloe Kardashian, Kris Jenner, and the women she calls her “lifers.”

While enjoying her time with her loved ones, Kim called all of us broke once again by wearing one of Janet’s actual looks as she sang the singer’s iconic tunes.

That’s one way to show out for one of your favorite musicians and it’s something that an everyday fan could never pull off.

Kendrick Lamar has been busy putting up an attack plan against Drake, and he just dropped another diss track titled Not Like Us. However, Lamar’s earlier track Meet the Grahams addressed each member of Drake’s family. The Poetic Justice singer struck a chord when he addressed a “baby girl,” suggesting that Drizzy has a secret daughter that he had been hiding from the public. Now, Drake reportedly swears on his career that Lamar’s allegations are false.

Take Care singer Drake responds to Kendrick Lamar’s allegations in new diss track

The feud between the singers kicked off when Lamar dissed J. Cole and Drake in an uncredited verse in Like That after Cole mentioned them as the “big three” in First Person Shooter. Drake responded with Push Ups, and then Lamar came up with Euphoria and 6:16 in LA. The God’s Plan singer dropped Family Matters on Friday,...

Drake and Kendrick Lamar have been embroiled in a bitter rivalry in the music industry for many years, during which both musicians have been critical of each other. The latter, 36, recently released a new track called Euphoria, in which he once again targeted Drake. Three days after releasing this diss track, he intensified his feud with Drake on Friday morning by releasing a second one, 6:16 in LA.

This is the latest in their long-running beef, which has gotten bigger and more intense over the past few weeks, involving other rappers.

Not one to back down, Drake is said to quickly hit back with a diss track of his own. However, that is not all—he recently shared a scene from Antoine Fuqua’s The Equalizer 2 on his social media, showcasing his lyrical skills and channeling his inner Denzel Washington in the process.

Kendrick Lamar’s Euphoria took the feud between Lamar and Drake to the next level. The six-minute diss track launches an attack on Drake’s music career, personal life, and biracial identity. It was in response to the American rapper’s earlier released song Push Ups, in which the One Dance singer mocks Lamar’s physical appearance and the quality of his songs. Interestingly, years before the current feud, Lamar and Drake had a friendly working relationship.

The duo even released the song Poetic Justice together in 2013, which found a place in the U.S. Apple Music chart once again due to the feud. The God’s Plan singer recorded a verse for the song that received critical acclaim for the performances.

One of music's biggest icons admits she nearly landed a key role in the X-Men franchise. Acclaimed singer Janet Jackson reveals she was initially offered the chance to portray Storm in the superhero film series before Halle Berry landed the part.

Speaking on The Drew Barrymore Show, Jackson confirmed she was set to play Storm in Bryan Singer's first X-Men film. According to Jackson, it was an exciting opportunity she wanted to take. However, her busy touring schedule prevented her from accepting it. When Barrymore mistakenly said Jackson was considered for a role in The Matrix, the "That's the Way Love Goes" singer said, It was this is horrible. I cant remember the film, but Halle Berry played Storm. I couldnt because I was just embarking on the Janet tour, Jackson said. But I think thats what youre confusing it with. It wasnt The Matrix.

King has since gone on to be a producer and has also been the director of several episodes of TV and made her feature film debut with One Night in Miami.

Hollywood star Regina King was seen most recently in the film Shirley, a biopic on the trailblazing Black congresswoman Shirley Chisholm which hit theaters on March 15th, 2024. The release of the film and the promotions leading up to it resulted in the Oscar winner talking about the very painful death of her son Ian Alexander, who died 2 years ago due to suicide.

Addressing the tragedy extensively for the first time in March, King spoke about the emotional turmoil that her son went through in the final days leading up to his death. She was also candid in her thoughts on mental health and depression that took a toll on so many people all over the world, and her own healing journey two years after the unfortunate incident.

As soon as Future and Metro Boomin’ collaborative album We Don’t Trust You dropped a couple of its much-anticipated tracks, Kendrick Lamar took the stage and decided to spit pure fire through his verses and bars in the track titled Like That.

The reason this stirred the entire industry as well as the public was because it explicitly dissed Drake and J. Cole, two of the biggest names in Hip Hop right now.

Usher’s performance next month during halftime of Super Bowl Lviii on CBS is getting an extra promo push from Apple – with a retro flourish.

The tech giant, which took over from Pepsi last year as the lead sponsor of the halftime show, has released a one-minute trailer (watch it above) titled “30 Years in the Making.” Set to the pop star’s 2004 hit “Yeah,” the trailer shows a range of clips of fans, street musicians, a church choir along with recognizable figures like NBA star LeBron James, Colombian singer-rapper J Balvin and BTS singer Jungkook. The main track pulses recognizably, but is mixed with flute, classical piano, choral versions and grainy camcorder footage of kids singing and Usher at a recording-studio mixing board.

The “30 years” tag refers to the long arc of the 45-year-old singer’s career, which began when he joined an R&b group in his native Dallas...

Tupac Shakur’s sister has called the charge of a gang leader with his murder “a pivotal moment.”

Sekyiwa Shakur posted on her social media her feelings following the indictment on Friday of Duane “Keffe” Davis on one count of murder.

Sekyiwa wrote that “”today is a victory” but “reserved judgement” until legal proceedings had been completed.

She said: “It’s important to me that the world, the country, the justice system, and our people acknowledge the gravity of the passing of this man, my brother, my mother’s son, my father’s son.

“There have been multiple hands involved and there remains so much surrounding the life and death of my brother Tupac and our Shakur family overall. We are seeking real justice, on all fronts.”

Her words follow those of Tupac’s step-brother Mopreme Shakur, who told CNN:

Few American filmmakers of the last 40 years await a major rediscovery like Hal Hartley, whose traces in modern movies are either too-minor or entirely unknown. Thus it’s cause for celebration that the Criterion Channel are soon launching a major retrospective: 13 features (which constitutes all but My America) and 17 shorts, a sui generis style and persistent vision running across 30 years. Expect your Halloween party to be aswim in Henry Fool costumes.

Speaking of: there’s a one-month headstart on seasonal programming with the 13-film “High School Horror”––most notable perhaps being a streaming premiere for the uncut version of Suspiria, plus the rare opportunity to see a Robert Rodriguez movie on the Criterion Channel––and a retrospective of Hong Kong vampire movies.

On the surface, the whimsy of Pee-wee’s Playhouse appears to be worlds apart from the solemnity of Boyz N the Hood, other than the curious resemblance between Cowboy Curtis and Furious Styles. But it’s no coincidence that Laurence Fishburne and other key creatives were part of both projects.

As a USC film student in the late 1980s, John Singleton spent one summer working as a security guard-slash-production assistant on the set of Pee-wee’s Playhouse. “John was the lowest of lowly PAs,” recalled Fishburne on Late Night with Conan O’Brien in 1995. “He was working on the door and his job was to stop people at the door and go, ‘Are you supposed to be here? Do you have the proper ID?’”

Singleton would press Fishburne for stories of working with Spike Lee, as the actor had appeared in School Daze a few months prior. The budding filmmaker...

A Compassionate Spy (Steve James)

See an exclusive clip above.

The latest film from acclaimed documentarian Steve James, A Compassionate Spy, comes with a fascinating subject: the spy who leaked nuclear information from the Manhattan Project to the Soviet Union, therefore ensuring that America could not establish a nuclear monopoly on the world. It’s easy to see why James would be drawn to the spy, Theodore “Ted” Hall, and his wife Joan as he has often been interested in using individuals as the framework to explore larger societal issues. Utilizing a hybrid of recreations, archival footage, and modern-day interviews, James crafts a portrait of a man, a relationship, and the sheer weight of the decision to betray your country to save the world.

Rap legend Tupac Shakur’s ring has become “the most valuable Hip Hop artifact ever sold at auction” after bidding topped $1 million (Rs 8.20 crore).

The ‘California Love’ hitmaker wore the custom gold, ruby and diamond crown piece during his final public appearance at the 1996 MTV Video Music Awards, just a week before he was shot dead, and it has now sold for an unprecedented $1,016,000, far exceeding the $300,000 estimate it was expected to fetch, reports aceshowbiz.com.

Cassandra Hatton, Sotheby’s Global Head of Science and Popular Culture, said in a statement, “This one-of-a-kind, custom ring was meticulously designed by Pac and is among the final products of his boundless creative energy – a unique artifact from a period of time that is a testament to his enduring influence on Hip Hop”.

The rapper designed and commissioned the ring, which was engraved with “Pac and Dada, 1996” in reference to his relationship with Kidada Jones,...

Just days after what would have been Tupac Shakur’s 52nd birthday, police have announced they issued a search warrant at a home in Henderson, Nevada, a city that sits under 20 miles outside of Las Vegas, where the rapper was gunned down in 1996.

According to Lt. Jason Johansson of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, “The search warrant that we conducted is in connection with the Tupac Shakur case…It has been a while…It’s a case that’s gone unsolved and hopefully one day we can change that.” As per the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the scene of the warrant appeared to be a tense one, with officers approaching the home with guns drawn. No arrests appeared to have been made.

Tupac Shakur was just 25 when he was murdered in a drive-by shooting in September 1996. Following attending the Mike Tyson-Bruce Seldon bout, Shakur and his driver, Death Row Records...

Tupac Shakur has finally received his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. On June 7, the rapper was honored in a posthumous ceremony hosted by radio personality Big Boy, with Tupac's sister Sekyiwa "Set" Shakur accepting the honor on the late star's behalf. Writer Jamal Joseph, Los Angeles City Council member Hugo Soto-Martinez, and "Dear Mama: The Saga of Afeni and Tupac Shakur" director Allen Hughes also spoke at the event.

In his speech, documented in Variety's live stream, Hughes recognized Tupac's radical legacy, saying he "has become a global symbol of rebellion - a symbol as visible and important as Malcolm X and Che Guevara, and an inspiration for activists . . . Indeed, the entire world feels Tupac's message."

Joseph, who was Tupac's godfather, also paid tribute to the way Tupac has continued to inspire people around the world. "Put your hands over your heart if that phrase, 'The rose that grew from concrete,...

In addition to being one of the most celebrated rappers of all time, Tupac Shakur's movies proved he was also a fine actor in his own right. After making his screen debut as a background player in the star-studded comedy Nothing But Trouble in 1991, Tupac earned critical acclaim for his villainous role as Bishop in his follow-up film, Juice. In 1993, Tupac once again shifted gears by playing a soft-hearted mailman opposite Janet Jackson in Poetic Justice. In total, Tupac starred in seven feature films and two television episodes prior to his death, not counting appearing in archived footage or as himself on various TV shows.

Whenever Tupac Shakur is mentioned, everyone thinks about his music career. That makes sense as he's considered one of the greatest rappers of all time. However, his acting career likely deserves more credit. While he...

Tupac Shakur is finally getting a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on June 7, the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce said.

A star for the late rap legend was previously announced nearly 10 years ago, but according to the Walk of Fame, the family has only now set a date for the ceremony. On Twitter, they said, “For the record, Tupac was selected in 2013, and we have been waiting for his family/estate to set a date.”

Sekyiwa “Set” Shakur, Tupac’s sister, will accept the honor on behalf of Tupac, who was shot and killed in 1996.

Noted Los Angeles radio host Big Boy will emcee the ceremony. Allen Hughes, who directed a number of Tupac videos and the Hulu docuseries “Dear Mama” about Tupac and his mother Afeni Shakur will speak, as will Jamal Joseph, the author of “Tupac Shakur, Tupac Shakur Legacy.”

Jennifer Esposito as Jackie Curatola and Donnie Wahlberg as Danny Reagan in ‘Blue Bloods’ season 13 episode 21

CBS’s popular, long-running Blue Bloods finishes up season 13 with episode 21, guest starring Jennifer Esposito, Stacy Keach, Dylan Walsh, Sami Gayle, Peter Hermann, and Tony Terraciano. Directed by Alex Zakrzewski from a script by Siobhan Byrne O’Connor and Kevin Wade, episode 21 – “Forgive Us Our Trespasses” – will air on Friday, May 19, 2023 at 10pm Et/Pt.

In March 2013, it was announced that CBS had renewed the primetime drama for season 14. The renewal was made possible after the stars and key producers agreed to a pay cut.

The cast is led by Tom Selleck as Frank Reagan, Donnie Wahlberg as Danny Reagan, and Bridget Moynahan as Erin Reagan. Will Estes stars as Jamie Reagan, Len Cariou is Henry Reagan, Sami Gayle is Nicky Reagan-Boyle, Marisa Ramirez plays Det. Maria Baez, and Vanessa Ray is Officer Eddie Janko.
