Kanye West is the suspect in a battery report after a man reportedly sexually assaulted his wife.

Police were informed that Ye punched somebody on Tuesday night after they “grabbed” Biaca Censori, Australian architext and model Bianca Censori, who Kanye West married early last year. The man did not need treatment for any injuries.

Now, a report for Ye has told TMZ that the man not only put his hands under her dress, but grabbed her waist and spun her around before blowing her kisses. They say she was sexually assaulted and a victim of battery. They did not address the accusation that Ye punched the man.

Stay tuned for updates on the situation.

Lupe Fiasco minced no words during his most recent performance at Coachella and asserted his talents as one of the greatest lyricists in hip hop.

The rapper made it very clear that he is ready to battle anyone in the industry, at any point of time. “Hear me clearly when I say this and I mean it from the bottom of my heart; when it comes to this art, and I quote, I will battle any motherfucking rapper. Anywhere. Any motherf***in’ time. I don’t give a f**k how many records you sold, I don’t give a f**k how many awards you have — if you want smoke, I swear on my motherf***in’ soul I will f**k you n****s. I will chew you n****s. I will f**k motherf****rs. Get wrecked n****s!”, he proclaimed loud and proud, as fans cheered in equal gusto.

He even went a step further to reiterate how he doesn’t care who it is in the industry that wants smoke and that he’s forever prepared, stating, “It goes for any motherf****r walking and talking — it go for Tyler motherf***in’ ass, it go for you, it goes for this bad boy lookin’ motherf****r over here. I don’t care. I do this s**t for real dog!” And well, if history is any proof, he’s not lying.

For the uninitiated, Lupe isn’t one to talk and not back it up — perhaps this point is proven best by his reaction to rapper Royce da 5’9”, whose diss ‘Silence of the Lambda’ Lupe responded to in a matter of hours with a scathing reply, followed up by Mickey Factz’ own two cents on WRAiTH.

With each project, too, Lupe has focused on intricate lyricism regarded as elite by hip-hop’s top critics. He himself is, quite literally, a scholar of rap that is responsible to a big degree for hip-hop lyricism penetrating academia in the US. Lupe has taken classes on Rap Theory at revered universities like the MIT, and seems like he is prepared to outclass anyone who dares to step up to him.

In the debut livestream of Gilga Radio, Donald Glover unveiled information around two new albums, the second of which will be the last Childish Gambino album.

The rather candid conversation kickstarted Glover’s latest radio initiative on Instagram, Gilga, where the artist spoke about the haphazard way in which his last project 3.15.20 was released – as well as its perceived shortcomings in the era of modern streaming.

He went on to speak about the album’s renewed readiness, emphasising that it will serve as a revamped release under the name, Atavista. He also admitted to the failures of its first iteration, and how timestamp based nomenclature of the tracks on 3.15.20 is not how most people consume music. He further revealed how he dropped the project without a thorough mix and master in the midst of the uncertainty that was the COVID-19 pandemic, and that Atavista will be a more polished package. Yes, this also means that a special edition Atavista vinyl release is on the way, alongside a music video for ‘Little Foot, Big Foot ft. Young Nudy’ directed by Hiro in the upcoming weeks.

of course. its a rollout dummy.

Digressing from Atavista, the rapper then soft-announced the development of a fresh final project from Childish Gambino, that will serve as the original soundtrack for a film titled ‘Bando Stone and The New World’. Brimming with a familiar Gambino-esque confidence, Glover spoke about how this is the kind of project he has always wanted to undertake, and that aside from these full length music projects, fans can also expect to see a Donald Glover x Zack Fox anime, as well as an animated show titled ‘City Mouse, Country Mouse’. Excitingly, Glover also teased some unreleased tunes that can be heard here.

On a more introspective tangent, Glover also spoke about his rap persona that is Childish Gambino, revealing that RZA from the Wu Tang Clan was intent on working on one of his formative releases and how he perceived Gambino’s story as one of “a boy turning into a boss”. This stuck with the artist, who emphasises that the whole point of a Childish Gambino persona is to not be an adult in his music.

He further weighed in on the ‘Big 3’ fued and his place within this narrative, and described himself as a “court jester” that is away from the noise, trying to have fun. “F**k the culture”, he said. “The culture has n****s afraid to wear sandals. What are we doing? You’re afraid to show your toes? Everyone has them! Why are we beholden to this thing that kinda wants us to fight?” Glover then commented how people are out dying in Chicago over real beefs, and how everyone must ask what they want from the zenith and whether it is about the bars, or the expression.
