Play Ray J on Amazon Music Unlimited (ad) Ray J has always been a figure of intrigue, but in a candid and raw conversation with Pastor Jamal Bryant, he peeled back the layers of his struggles, including a near-suicide attempt, his complicated public persona, and his journey of growth. The singer and entrepreneur revealed one of his darkest moments during a stay in Cancun, Mexico. Ezoic “I climbed off the roof and I went off to the side of the roof, and I just laid down,” Ray J confessed. “If I fall off, then it was meant to be.” He described lying there for hours, contemplating the precipice between life and death, before eventually being found and rescued by hotel staff. The chilling admission highlighted the silent battles he faced while keeping up appearances for the cameras. Ezoic Ray J admitted that his public image had been both a blessing and a curse, often defining him in ways that felt untrue. “I’ve lied about my whole life,” he said, reflecting on the facade he maintained for the sake of fame. Living under constant scrutiny, he shared how the public’s perception of him as a character overshadowed the truth. “People don’t know the intelligence behind the whole setup of everything,” he noted, alluding to the complex balancing act of being a businessman and a public figure. Despite being controversial, Ray J acknowledged that his past mistakes were a learning experience. “Throughout my mistakes, people have probably made mistakes too,” he said, expressing hope that his transparency could resonate with others. “I’ve always been willing to hold myself accountable, be apologetic, and take the L.” Pastor Bryant, echoing the sentiment, encouraged him to embrace his transformation. “You’ve outlived the past,” the pastor said, a statement that struck a chord with Ray J. The conversation also revealed his commitment to his children, emphasizing his desire to leave behind a legacy rooted in truth. “I want my kids to live through my truth,” Ray J declared, visibly emotional, when referencing his children with Princess Love. “Not through the speculations of this and that.” The conversation wasn’t all heavy; it had moments of lightness and humor, like when the pair referenced Future in an attempt to name drugs that helped people fight depression.

GloRilla "GLORIOUS" Album Review

GloRilla GLORIOUS New Album Review Hip Hop News2024 CMG/Interscope Records Glo's still got some rough edges to smooth out, but her studio debut both deepens her artistry and emphasizes its strengths. With a breakout hit as massive as "F.N.F.," it would've been easy for GloRilla to just stick to that sound and appeal to get her bag as hip-hop's most beloved new femcee of that year. To be fair, that's kind of what she did in the following months, giving us single after single of some dirty Memphis bangers that she earned her fair share of hate for, along with every other woman rapper being just as hedonistic as the guys without that patriarchal benefit of the doubt. However, the Tennessee native clearly didn't want to rush her studio debut, and now that GLORIOUS is here, we can easily see why.

Young Money Sued Because Lil Wayne's a Bad Sport!!!

Lil Wayne had a front row seat watching Floyd Mayweather beat Manny Pacquiao. He also watched the Ravens beat the 49ers in the 2013 Super Bowl. He even watched the finals of the NCAA Women's Tourney. And he stiffed the ticket brokers ... allegedly. Tickets of America and White Glove International claim Wayne got $119,400 worth of tickets and never paid a cent. According to the lawsuit, Wayne got tickets for the following events: -- Mayweather vs. Pacquiao $67,500 -- Super Bowl XLVII $14,000 -- MTV Video Music Awards $4,000 -- Heat vs. Hawks $11,000 -- Lakers vs. Rockets $11,100 -- Clippers vs. Rockets $11,300 And this is sad ... NCAA Women's Basketball Final Four -- a measly $500. The suit claims Wayne got the tickets between February 2013 and June 2015. The suit names Young Money and Wayne's manager, Cortez Bryant, but not the rapper himself. We reached out to Wayne. So far no word back.
