The latest, and certainly not the last, to make such a questionable decision is Sean “Diddy” Combs, who threw a birthday bash for his son Justin’s 27th birthday in Miami. Nope, it was not an intimate gathering in the slightest. According to TMZ it went down Wednesday night (Dec. 30) in Miami, Florida, and there wasn’t a mask in sight—besides the servers. Per TMZ: Diddy led the crowd in singing “Happy Birthday” to Justin during the Wednesday night celebration that started at Swan restaurant, and eventually moved to Victory Restaurant & Lounge. Both joints were packed to the gills with folks popping bottles and a custom Dior cake for Justin. It’s 2020, so the first thing that hits y...

Taking to Instagram, the mogul announced via his Instagram account that he wouldn’t be holding his annual New Year’s Eve bash, and nobody is going to change his mind. The Bad Boy general shared a notice stating: “TO ALL MY FRIENDS: In efforts to keep everyone safe & healthy, unfortunately, WE ARE NOT HAVING A NYE PARTY THIS YEAR! I hope everyone had a blessed holiday and wish you all the best for the new year!” The caption hammered home just how serious he is about the annual party where dubious amounts of champagne, Ciroc, and Deleón Tequila are supplied is not happening. The decision ...
Source: Paras Griffin / Getty Are OG golden era Hip-Hop heads ready to revisit the infamous Bad Boy vs. Death Row era of the 90s? Swizz Beatz and Timbaland certainly wouldn’t mind doing so. After successfully getting rivals Jeezy and Gucci Mane to be in the same room together for a spectacular Verzuz battle a few weeks back, Timbo and Swizz aren’t completely dismissing the possibility of a Dr. Dre Verzuz Puff Daddy event that would totally break the internet. Speaking to TMZ about their smash IG series, Charles Latibeaudiere asked the show’s founders about pitting Dr. Dre’s catalogue against P. Diddy’s and though that’s not currently in their plans, Swizz basically said never say never. After initially shooting down Harvey Levin’s idea of a Jay-Z Verzuz Diddy outing (we want Jay-Z Verzuz N...

As spotted on HipHopDX the mega mogul partied in his signature lavish style for his 51st birthday which landed on Wednesday, November 4. This year he hosted the festivities in Turks & Caicos a couple days earlier with friends, family and as expected some very high profile celebrities. In the house were Nas, N.O.R.E. and Mary J. Blige. In a clip that hit the internet the three aforementioned performers enjoying the party in a dance cipher with the music playing in the background. It is clear Nasir specifically caught a big vibes as started doing Doug E. Fresh’s patented “Dougie” dance w...
