Earlier this week, Wheezy shared a photo from the studio on his Instagram Story that showed fellow producer ATL Jacob working on the piano with a neon sign behind him that reads Super Slimey 2.
It doesn’t seem like it could get any more obvious than a full sign dedicated to the project, but nothing has been confirmed just yet.
The pair first announced a sequel back in 2019 in a post to the official YSL page,......

Diddy‘s legal troubles continue, as he now faces two more lawsuits accusing him of sexual assault — one which places the alleged attack on the day of a tragic and fatal incident at a 1991 charity basketball game, and another 15 years later at a party thrown by the mogul.
The suits were both filed Friday (December 20) in federal court in New York. The one tied to the 1991 event was by a Jane Doe, who is represented by Tony Buzbee — the attorney who has made headlines recently for adding JAY-Z to a different suit against Diddy.
In the new complaint, the......

“There’s a disconnect,” he explained. “I’m not saying all young artists, but a lot of young artists can’t take direction. And the way we work is: I’m......
