Yung6ix has handed a response to one of his Instagram followers who slammed him for posting about the Real Madrid versus PSG champions league game, from the hospital bed. The rapper called the ‘rude’ fan a coward, stating that he/she would end up hospitalized or dead, if the rude comment was made in ‘real life’ and not on social media.
Tottenham forward, Son Heung-min says his team’s performance in the UEFA Champions League round of 16 clash against Juventus on Wednesday night deserved more than a loss.
The South Korea international opened the scoring on the night for Spurs, but his side suffered a 2-1 loss to bow out 4-3 on aggregate from the Europe topflight competition.
Goals from Gonzalo Higuain and Paulo Dybala in a three-minute span saw Juve complete a stunning second-half comeback at Wembley, with Spurs unable to respond.
Son believes that his side outplayed their Italian rivals in the second leg and that they deserved to move on to the quarter final stage of the competition.
The 25-year-old, however, said the results were irrelevant after his club exited the Champions League, adding that Spurs were unlucky to be out of the competition.
“It doesn’t matter when we beat Real Madrid or Dortmund, it doesn’t matter,†Son told reporters after the game.
“Juventus is another good team, and another top team in Europe. I think we played very well – better than them.
“I say we deserved more than this but football is about scoring goals and they scored two goals at Wembley Stadium. We have to accept the result.
“Our performance was very good and I think we deserved more than this,†he continued.
“The last Harry [Kane] header … if we’re lucky then that’s going in… we should have got a penalty I think.
“But as I said, they scored two goals. Football is about scoring goals, and if you don’t score, you lose of course.
“But I think we’re unluckily out of the Champions League,†he said.
Tottenham must now turn their full focus to the Premier League, where they hold a five-point lead over fifth placed Chelsea, and the FA Cup, where the London outfit face a quarter-final against Swansea.

A lot of people listened to President Buhari’s speech during Ghana’s 61st Independence celebrations. However, not many, including controversial celebrity Afia Schwarzenegger, were impressed.
The President of Nigeria said Nigeria will help Ghana fight corruption. This didn’t go down well with citizens from both countries as everybody knows corruption especially within political office, is what has relegated the ‘Giant of Africa’ to the background with poverty ravaging its people.
Anyway, while reacting to Buhari’s speech, Afia Schwarzenegger called out Buhari and directed him to Mathew 7:3-5.
She wrote:
“Thiz is BigSisterAfrica Buhari!!!!!! you have 20 secs to grab a bible n read this Mathew 7:3-5.
NB: All speeches must be well scrutinized before reading out to the public.â€
According to the passage where she directed the Nigeria’s president to read from:
Matthew 7:3-5Â King James Version (KJV)
“3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
4Â Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.â€
In other words, Afia Schwarzenegger thinks President Buhari is a hypocrite for saying Nigeria will help Ghana fight corruption. The Ghanaian OAP wants the Nigerian leader to tackle corruption first in his country rather than attack others for their small flaws while ignoring Nigeria’s massive ones.
President Buhari was the guest speaker at Ghana’s 61st independence anniversary. And in his speech to the country people of Ghana, the Nigerian president had mentioned that Nigeria will assist Ghana in fighting corruption.
This statement angered a lot of Ghanaians and some even instructed President Buhari to tackle the snake that swallowed money in his country first and then later come to Ghana to help them fight corruption.

A Nigerian U.S-based Twitter user identified simply as TheNigerianKing (@YungDrew22), has taken to the social networking plarform to narrate how pissed-off he is over people trolling him and his white girlfriend online because of their racial differences.
The young man said that it is mediocre for people to judge his relationship because of skin colour, saying he loves his white girlfriend and that's all that matters.
He added that he was raised to respect and value everyone and just because another human's skin color looks different from his doesn't mean he will discriminate against them.
You what the craziest part about my relationship has been? The amount of hate I received from fellow black men & women about the woman I have selected, it’s crazy to think that just a little over 50 years ago it would have been white people attacking us & now it’s my own people

Speaking about his white Oyinbo girlfriend, he wrote: "I’ve known Kalei for about 6 years & we’re going on our 5 of being in a relationship. She’s literally one of the most sweet & genuine person I’ve ever met. She’s not perfect but she works on the things she falls short on just like we all do. That’s what makes her perfect to me.
The fact that she’s Asian & White vs me being Nigerian didn’t & shouldn’t matter in my selection. Attacking us for the color of our skin is mediocre & played out. I’ll never stop loving another human being or treat them differently just because they don’t look or act like me.

Since the beginning of the Big Brother Naija Show, some Nigerian FBI’s revealed that one of the housemates, Tobi Bakre worked with Heritage Bank prior to the beginning of the show.
Many evey claimed that the Bank, one of the sponsors of the show, fixed their staff, Tobi into the show, so he “could†carry the bank on his shoulders with the fame he’d attain.
Well, the management of the Heritage Bank has on social media set the records straight about their relationship Tobi.
They decided to make this clarification following the news making rounds that the bank, which is the official sponsor of this year’s show, are influencing it in favor of Tobi.
Although, they didn’t give full details but they made it known that he no longer works for them – meaning they could never influence it in the favor of an ex-staff.
They wrote:
“We know you have all been wondering about Tobi’s connection to Heritage Bank. This is to clarify that he is a former staff of the bank and resigned appropriately prior to the Big Brother Naija show @bigbronaija #HeritageBank #BBNaija2018″

While speaking when he received a delegation from King Salman of Saudi Arabia at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, President Muhammadu Buhari on Thursday, reiterated that the priority of his administration was mainly to secure the country, ensure a viably economy and rid the country of corruption.
The President said his administration was mindful of the three-pronged promises made to Nigerians before the 2015 elections.
He said Nigerians in the areas affected by Boko Haram insurgency were in the best position to provide correct assessments of the changes that have taken place since he assumed office in 2015, assuring that he remained undeterred and focused on securing the lives and properties of all Nigerians
According to him, “From the very time we came until now, we have been able to do our best, and we remain focused on delivering on our promises.’’
President Buhari in a statement signed by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Malam Garba Shehu, told the Saudi Arabian delegation that the priority of his administration had so far been on securing the country, buoying the economy and curbing corruption so that Nigerians would start benefitting from the rich natural and human resources of the country.
He expressed appreciation to the King Salman Aid and Relief Centre, and the Saudi Development Fund for providing relief materials, worth 10 million dollars, to Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in the North East.
In his remarks, the Minister of Defence, Mohammed Dan-Ali said the delegation from Saudi Arabia had already visited the Ministry of Defence, Defence Headquarters and taken a tour of IDP camps in Maiduguri as part of their schedule.
The Leader of the Saudi Arabian delegation from King Salman, Nasser Bin Mutlaq, said the visit and the donation of materials was an extension of the good relations both countries had shared over the years.
He said, “We are directed to offer materials and food for the displaced persons in the North East worth 10 million dollars. We have had a field visit to the places and seen the humanitarian situation ourselves.’’
Canada is delivering a potential summer banger, as Lou Phelps releases his new "Come Inside" record featuring Jazz Cartier and production from Kaytranada. The new feel-good track provides a funky soundtrack for listeners as we hear Phelps and the Toronto rapper offer up some romantic rhymes over the super producer's instrumental.
Phelps kicks things off over his brother's drum-infused beat, where he tries to pitch himself to a broken-hearted woman. Regardless, he still expresses his true feelings and makes sure she knows that he is interested in pursuing her.
"Had my eyes on you for a minute/Didn’t take a chance at love, broken-hearted," he raps. "Talk about love, baby, use your logic/Wanna say the truth, f**k it, go ‘head about it."
Cartier hops on the second verse, where he faces his fears of opening up to a woman and wanting to tell the world that he loves her.
I wonder if it's way too much/Tell me if am weighing you down," Cartier rhymes. "I’ve been here waiting around/I can always see your face in the crowd/Tou know I love you can say it aloud."
It's been a minute since fans have gotten some material from Phelps, as he dropped his debut project, 001: Experiments, last year in April.
Take a listen to the new Kaytranada-produced track from Lou Phelps featuring Jazz Cartier below.
Lil Xan fell victim to actor and notorious shit-talker Michael Rapaport's latest rant on social media on Wednesday evening (March 7). Rap called the 21-year-old a "cornball no talent having motherfucker" and demanded an apology from the Total Xanarchyrapper for his lack of interest in Tupac's music, which he revealed on an episode of RevoltTV's Clout 9 series.Â
Rapaport posted the rant to Instagram, "Little buck tooth rabbit face motherfucker. You need to apologize, alright? And you don't need to apologize to Tupac or Tupac's fans. You need to apologize to whoever the fuck raised you, or didn't raise you, for raising you to be a dumb fuck. You don't get to speak on anything that has to do with hip-hop," the 47-year-old explained while walking around outside.
On Monday (March 5), the "Betrayed" artist voiced his displeasure on Twitter over the backlash he received from ranking Tupac's music a two on a scale of one to 10 in a clip released by RevoltTV. "No More Interviews," Xan wrote.
Once Waka Flocka got wind of Lil Xan's comments he also fired off a Twitter rant of his own defending Tupac and banning Diego from rap, "Lil Xan Banned From Hip-Hop," Waka posted Tuesday night (March 6).

One of his custom pieces was worn by actress Salma Hayek to an Oscars party last weekend.
The designer posted the news on Instagram with the following caption:
“It’s time to tell all. From growing up with holes in my shoes and swimming in The Harlem River, to crossing The River Nile in Africa in search of my identity. I came from nothing, and God has blessed me with a partnership with @Gucci, a book deal with @RandomHouse, and now a movie deal with @SonyPictures.
