Whether it’s the look or the sound, it’s clear all eyes are on Ice Spice right now. The hip-hop star is coming through in a major way and showing out to the masses on a daily basis but no bigger announcement right now than her securing a spot at the annual Governors Balls festival.
Ice Spice and Governors Ball is happening
It should be a no-brainer for Ice to have her Big Apple presence felt in her hometown. But to get this specific look at a jam-packed line-up three-day event featuring Kendrick Lamar, Lil Baby and Lizzo?
Founders Entertainment is thrilled to announce the addition of Ice Spice to the Governors Ball Music Festival’s 2023 lineup. The Bronx native, dubbed “Rap’s New Princess” by the New York Times, has risen to stardom thanks to an impeccable string of hits including “Boy’s a liar Pt. 2” which features fellow Governors Ball 2023 performer PinkPantheress. Governors Ball 2023 is set to take place in its new home among the trees in historic Flushing Meadows Corona Park, Friday, June 9th through Sunday, June 11th. The twelfth edition of the festival features a lineup of 60+ performing artists including headliners Kendrick Lamar, Lizzo and ODESZA.
After two successful years at Citi Field, like a true New Yorker the Governors Ball Music Festival is on the move again, packing up its famed tattooed Lady Liberty statue and making the short trip to Flushing Meadows Corona Park. Patrons will have plenty of space to spread out on grassy lawns and shady tree groves as they take in performances and enjoy refreshing beverages and culinary delights (including select vendors from Queens Night Market favorites) throughout the day. A return to the long running festival’s traditional park-side setting (after leaving Randall’s Island Park in 2021), the new location combines the easy accessibility festival fans loved about Citi Field (multiple transportation options include the MTA’s 7 train line, the LIRR), with an inviting green space as the perfect setting for a weekend of great music, good times and amazing food. Tickets for Governors Ball 2023 are available for purchase while supplies last via GovBall.com

Atlanta rapper Young Thug knows the competition is slim to none these days. Thugger has stepped up to remind the world of his greatness and a couple of other hip-hop heavyweights he puts into the Top 3.
Young Thug names rap game’s Top 3
Slime went to his Instagram page with a snapshot of himself posted up alongside Atlanta’s Lil Baby and Gunna. Instead of whipping up a long caption, Thugger simply cited themselves as the top of their class presumably in hip-hop.
“Top 3 don’t @ 🅿️”
Young Thug promises Atlanta runs the rap game
In a recent interview, Thugger dished on what just made the A super special and why he didn’t see any other city overtaking the rap scene like his own hometown.
“The Southern hospitality, man. It’s Black, it’s just Black as f*ck. The youth kinda own everything, the newer generation run everything. Everybody got hearts, everybody love each other — well, for the most part. It ain’t that many haters. … I don’t see no city taking over Atlanta - because we steady having new artists come from Atlanta, bruh, and we getting bigger and bigger and bigger. The biggest artists that are popping right now are from Atlanta. We gon’ keep going higher and higher. I don’t see no other city gaining the number one spot again. We got it.”
Young Thug shoots to No. 1
A few months ago, Thugger had some serious bragging rights. His PUNK album shot up the Billboard Top 200 chart and dominated the competition.
In an unstoppable run this year, Young Thug earns his second #1 album of 2021 as PUNK debuts at the top of the Billboard 200 Albums Chart. PUNK, released via Young Stoner Life/300 Entertainment, is Thug’s second album release of the year, following his and Young Stoner Life Records’ compilation album Slime Language 2, which also debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 in April 2021. PUNK is also Thug’s third #1 album,following Slime Language 2 and 2019’s So Much Fun,
Earning multiple 5-star reviews, and heralded by Rolling Stone as an album where ‘Thug is at his most grounded’, with Vulture adding that ‘Thug is doing whatever he wants. Everyone else is meeting the challenge’, PUNK has ushered in a new era of Thugger both sonically and aesthetically, and has been embraced globally by fans and critics alike.
300 Entertainment CEO Kevin Liles knew how much of an achievement this was for both YT and the label. He’s since dished on Thugger’s latest career achievement.
“Artist development and evolution are the biggest forms of currency in the sustainability and relevancy of an artist in the entertainment industry. Young Thug’s undeniable dedication, vision, and relentless work ethic are unmatched and show how much he has doubled down on his artistry. I’m proud of Young Thug for not only checking the boxes, but creating his own space outside of the box. Though we have been by Young Thug’s side for eight years, his two number one albums in one year is only the beginning of his story.”

Lil Baby’s ex Jayda Cheaves isn’t dating Quavo
Jayda made sure to rely on the power of social media to snatch down any headlines suggesting she and Huncho are clocking in low-key relationship goals together. Despite the perception and buzz, Cheaves said she woudln’t resort to ‘lame’ activities.
But Quavo did hint at Jayda Cheaves going down
The buzz really started a few days ago when speculation grew of rapper Saweetie - Quavo’s former flame - possibly dating Baby. Pics circulated online piecing them together and ultimately seemed to spark a response from Huncho suggesting they could swap exes.
Lil Baby + Saweetie are dating - maybe - but Quavo isn't hurting
Ready to get confused? How about the fact rap heavyweights Saweetie and Lil Baby are supposedly dating even though the hip-hop diva is just months removed from a close-knit and long run with Migos leader Quavo.

Something's Brewing W/ Lil Baby + Lil Uzi Vert

Something’s Brewing W/ Lil Baby + Lil Uzi Vert
LB went to his Instagram Story with a snapshot of himself posted up. But it’s more than your average selfie, the pic also features Philly’s own LUV and has since prompted collaboration chatter.
Lil Uzi Vert Is Mighty Mouse Lifting 320 Pounds
Never doubt Lil Uzi Vert’s strength. While he might be listed at 5’4, he can handle anything thrown his way possible three times his own weight.
LUV recently blessed Instagram Story with a clip of himself showing he might be a real-life superhero. After a few moments, Vert reveals his upper body strength courtesy of lifting 320 pounds.
The moment is too dope to ignore. It’s no wonder his ride or die JT of the City Girls can’t help but feel like she’s protected whenever LUV is around.
Of Course You Want To Spend 24 Hours W/ Lil Uzi Vert
Who doesn’t want to hang out and see the life of Lil Uzi Vert? Even better - how about for the course of a full 24 hours?

More specifically, this is an up-close look at Lil Uzi preparing for the recent New York Met Gala.
Keep in mind, this was the same event which had everyone from J. Lo and Lil Nas X showing out big time - it’s also the same event Nicki Minaj went viral for sharing her issues with COVID-19 vaccinations as she explained why should couldn’t attend.
