The Wrap Up with L’Orèal Luchi, keeping you informed on everything that happened in hip hop culture this week:
Rihanna & A$ A.P. Welcome Their Son:
Rihanna and ASAP Rocky are officially mom & dad! They gave birth to their first child, a baby boy. We don’t know the name, but, He was born on May 13 in Los Angeles. While the news was breaking, RiRi’s ex, Chris Brown, wrote Congratulations” with prayer hands, a heart, and a pregnant woman emoji online. Even though he didn’t name Riri, it’s apparent the message was meant for the couple.
Young Thug:
Young Thug’s attorney claims his client his being held in “torturous” jail conditions while awaiting trial. Young thug compared his living area to a dungeon that has no windows, he also said he hasn’t been allowed to take a shower, work out, and he has no access to media, radio, or television. The Cobb County Sheriff’s Department responded to the accusations & said the conditions young Thug is living in are standard.” They said, “This is a jail, it is a detention center. It’s not the Ritz Carlton, so you have to recognize that.”
Migos Over?
Are the Migos OVER? After Quavo and Takeoff announced they are dropping a song together called “Hotel Lobby” under the monikers Unc and Phew, a Twitter user just so happened to notice Offset, and his wife Cardi B unfollowed Quavo and Takeoff on social media. Quavo and Takeoff aren’t following Cardi and Offset either. It’s kinda crazy we live in a day & age where if someone unfollows you on social media, it’s a possible “sign” it means you don’t rock with that person. Quavo seemingly reacted to the rumor with his bio’s headline “HUNCHO 1/3rd Of Greatest Group In The World MIGOS”.
Keyshia Cole on A.B. Drama:
Keyshia Cole and Antonio Brown recently collaborated on a song. They spent some time together publicly, which sparked dating rumors. Keyshia addressed them when she posted pictures of her and A.B., cozied up, saying “I miss you.” A.B. gave a shocking response and said mean things to Keyshia. He told Keyshia to get off his D!
Later on, Keyshia admitted that she was “big trippin.” She said, “Had so much love, respect, and admiration fa you. Guess that wasn’t mutual.” Keyshia hopped on live to talk about it more. She didn’t deserve that, and I hope good karma comes her way.

A few months back, Meech made a deal with a Miami jeweler to buy a Richard Millie watch, but the actor allegedly didn’t uphold his part.
