MGK Pushes Back After Fan Requests Solo Rap Album
MGK isn’t interested in making a rap album just to prove a point, and he’s making that clear directly to fans. The conversation started when a fan took to X and shared what they hoped to hear from MGK’s next rap-focused project, writing, “what I want the most from kells with the rap album is for it to have no features on it. I want it to be solely himself showcasing his pure talent.” MGK, whose real name is Colson Baker but also goes by “kells” and “Machine Gun Kelly,” didn’t ignore the suggestion, but his response made it clear he’s prioritizing the music over expectations.

MGK Says He Has ‘Nothing To Prove’ As Fans Rally Behind His Creative Vision

“I will curate every song for the better of the song,” he replied. “So when I hear someone else’s voice on it in my head. I’m putting them on it. I have 0 interest in making a ‘I have something to prove, look how good I am at rapping’ album.”
Rather than sparking debate, MGK’s stance quickly earned support from his fanbase, many of whom praised his confidence and artistic clarity. “I absolutely have no doubt that kells will make the right creative decisions in his music!!!” one fan wrote. Another echoed that sentiment, adding, “Anything MGK brings out is dope he’s the goat no matter who on the track.”

Others pointed to MGK’s genre-crossing career as proof that collaboration is part of what makes him stand out. “And I think part of what makes you such a versatile artist is your ability to blend so well with so many other artists from so many different genres!” one supporter commented.

‘Lost Americana’ Includes Unexpected Megan Fox Songwriting Credit

The discussion comes on the heels of MGK’s most recent release, “Lost Americana.” Released on August 8, 2025, “Lost Americana” marked MGK’s seventh studio album and notably arrived with minimal guest appearances, only featuring Phem on “indigo.”
Aside from the limited features, fans couldn’t help but notice a track titled “Orpheus,” which is officially credited to co-writers Kelly and Megan Fox. The songwriting credit stands out, given the former couple’s breakup.

While their romantic relationship has ended, the two still co-parent their daughter, who will be turning one year old next month, and the shared credit suggests that creative ties between them haven’t been entirely severed. Kelly has long spoken about drawing inspiration from real-life relationships, and “Lost Americana” as a whole leans heavily into that.

MGK Gives A Vulnerable Look At Fatherhood And Regret On ‘Treading Water’

MGK also leans into raw vulnerability on one of “Lost Americana”’s most emotional tracks, “Treading Water,” where he appears to grapple with regret, loneliness, and the weight of personal mistakes.
On the song, Machine Gun Kelly predicts he will “die alone,” delivering some of the album’s most confessional lyrics. “This’ll be the last time you hear me say sorry / That’ll be the last tear you waste on me crying / I broke this home,” he sings, repeating the “broken home” line elsewhere in the track before adding, “I’ll change for our daughter, so she’s not alone.”
Confronting Deception And Fallout In Music

Later in the track, MGK references “pack[ing] up suitcases,” a line that takes on added meaning given his explanation of when and where the song was written. According to the artist, “Treading Water” was penned “in Room Three, spending Christmas in rehabilitation,” anchoring the track in a moment of isolation, reflection, and forced honesty.
Together, the lyrics come across as an honest confession, less about blame and more about accountability, growth, and moving ahead.

As the tour continues and fans speculate about what’s next, especially when it comes to a future rap album, MGK continues to make it clear that the music comes first.

Tory Lanez Sends Sis Money, Claressa Shields Weighs In
Whew! Tory Lanez might be sending cash, but Claressa Shields is making it clear that money and family don’t always mix. The 2x Olympic gold medalist and undefeated boxing champ is speaking her truth after longtime family struggles — and she’s not holding back, especially after GloRilla’s sister, Victoria Woods, called out her own sibling for allegedly skipping on family support.
RELATED: That’s How You Feel? GloRilla Claps Back At Family Neglect Claims As Her Sister Victoria Woods Doubles Down (WATCH)
GloRilla’s Sister Allegedly Gets Cash From Tory Lanez
Victoria “Scar Face” Woods took to her Facebook on Friday, February 6, and shared alleged screenshots showing that Tory Lanez sent her the $2,500 she had asked from her sister GloRilla to repair their relationship. In the caption, she wrote, “He didn’t want me to post this but ya boy heard about the situation all the way in jail Tory Lanez thank you,” alongside a screenshot of Tory’s Instagram message: “From Tory: if ur actually f****d up and really tripping about 2500.. I’l send it to u gang … I kno how it feels to not have shit while needing it .. I hope god blesses u.” He added, “Lmk,” making it clear he wanted to help while weighing in from afar — along with a $2500 Apple Pay transfer.
GloRilla’s Family Drama Seemingly Gets Called Out By Claressa Shields
Hours before this, on Facebook, Claressa went off in a post that’s part life lesson, part reality check. “I don’t care how rich I am, I don’t owe anybody nothing!” Shields wrote. “If I decide to help you, you better appreciate it!” She made it clear that financial support should be a choice, not a given — even if you’re family and “had it hard together.” According to Claressa, you can buy cars, houses, help with bills, or even pitch in for the kids, and some people still won’t respect or appreciate it. Her advice? If you want to be rich or famous, work for it.
Claressa has been open in the past about why she stopped helping her family, revealing that jealousy and resentment from her sister played a big role. Now, her latest statement lands right after GloRilla’s sister, Victoria Woods, publicly called out her own sibling for allegedly not sharing the wealth — and Claressa’s words hit like a jab straight to the heart of family entitlement debates.
Fans Weigh In On Claressa’s Family Money Take
Once the post hit, folks ran straight to The Shade Room IG comments to throw in their two cents. Some admitted this was the first time they actually agreed with Claressa, while others reminded everyone that nobody is entitled to anyone’s success or money. Of course, a few couldn’t help but clap back, saying if you struggled together, then you’re definitely eating together.
One Instagram user @socialnatrosha said, “The biggest betrayal comes from those who are close to you including family. 💯”
But, Instagram user @maleweezy._ commented, “Only people with pure hearts help people out.“
Meanwhile, Instagram user @naebbyy revealed, “Idc idc idc if I make it my family making it too 💯”
While Instagram user @thattattooedchickgoldz wrote, “Every 👏🏾 word 👏🏾 she 👏🏾 said 🎯”
And, Instagram user @ibe_mimi shared, “The more you do the more they hate you💯💯💯”
Finally, Instagram user @yellygangmakesnoise added, “D*mn. First time I agree with Clarissa“
So, What Prompted All Of This?
In a video circulating online, Victoria “Scar Face” Woods called out her sister GloRilla for allegedly skipping on household expenses while their mom still grinds at FedEx. Scar Face didn’t hold back, pointing out that GloRilla has 10 siblings she allegedly hasn’t helped financially, but somehow finds time to support friends — and even dragged that viral Jaguar gift to their dad, claiming it didn’t even have gas while the parents still need assistance.
She also shaded GloRilla for staying quiet about the ongoing family needs, leaving fans divided over whether fame should come with automatic family support. While GloRilla hasn’t directly responded to the claims, Scar Face’s allegations have the internet buzzing, with everyone debating what, if anything, stars actually owe their loved ones once they blow up.

New Photo Shows More Apparent Hand Piercings
North West is once again at the center of online discussion following her latest fashion statement. The 12-year-old daughter of Kim Kardashian and Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, shared a photo on Instagram showing several apparent piercings on her hands, prompting mixed reactions from fans and followers.

North West Shares New Photo Featuring Multiple Hand Piercings
North first sparked public conversation about her piercings in November, when she debuted an apparent dermal piercing on her middle finger. In her latest post, North appears to have expanded her collection.
The photo showed her posing with her hands raised in front of her face, highlighting multiple silver piercings on her fingers, the backs of her hands, and her wrist. She also appeared with her signature blue hair — a look she has frequently worn in recent months.
While North did not include a caption with the image, the post quickly gained attention after fans reshared it across platforms.
Social Media Reacts
Social media users responded with a wide range of opinions. Some praised North’s appearance and confidence. Others expressed concern about her age and whether the apparent hand piercings are appropriate for a 12-year-old.
Instagram user @janayxo_ wrote, “She’s gorgeous and I love the alt baddie look BUT the piercings on the hands tewww much lol 😭”
Another Instagram user @simplydessii wrote, “🔥🔥 ts fire”
While Instagram user @realbabyym_ wrote, “I think it’s cute, she’s js too young for all that”
Instagram user @everybodyhatekrissy wrote, “it kind of eats. Very punk rock.”
Another Instagram user @kayoticbaeb wrote, “No I definitely think now Kim should have a moment where she says no cause North is still very much underage to be doing all this at just 12”
While Instagram user @seren.i.ty wrote, “I couldn’t even get my ears pierced till I was 16 😒”
Instagram user @_luljadaa_ wrote, “She’s cool 😍😂🔥”
Another Instagram user @thearlingtonskinspecialist wrote, “She’s going to be bored by the time she’s 18 lol”
While Instagram user @itgirlmiyoko wrote, “Let’s remind ourselves that this child is the daughter of Billionaires.. and proceed with minding our business 😭”
North Previously Responded To Criticism Over Piercings
North has not publicly addressed the reaction to her most recent post. However, she previously responded to criticism after debuting her first hand piercing in November. At the time, North posted a video using audio from Chrisean Rock that said, “Why are you crying? How old are you? Just pull it together!” She added the caption, “This is for everyone that’s mad over a finger piercing.”
Since then, North has continued to share her personal style on social media, often drawing public attention and discussion. Most recently, in January, Kim appeared on ‘Khloé in Wonderland’ and seemed to assert that North’s hand piercings were “fake.” At this time, it remains unclear whether all of them are “fake” or if some of them are only prosthetics.
As for the sentiments on North’s latest photo, neither North nor her parents has publicly reacted.

Taylor Sheridan’s New ‘Yellowstone’ Sequel Gets Season 2 Update Before It Even Premieres
The next chapter of the Yellowstone universe hasn’t even aired yet — and it’s already getting future-facing momentum. Taylor Sheridan’s first post-Yellowstone sequel, Marshals, has landed a notable Season 2 update just weeks ahead of its series debut.
Set to premiere Sunday, March 1 on CBS, Marshals picks up after the events of Yellowstone and follows Kayce Dutton as he steps into a new role with the U.S. Marshals, tackling high-risk missions across Montana. And while Season 1 hasn’t even rolled out its first episode, CBS is already preparing for what comes next.
According to a new report, the network is setting up a writers’ room for Season 2, expected to open soon. It’s not a formal renewal — but make no mistake, this is a strong signal of confidence. Networks don’t spin up writers’ rooms early unless they’re planning for longevity. Here’s the official logline:
“With the Yellowstone Ranch behind him, Dutton joins an elite unit of U.S. Marshals, combining his skills as a cowboy and Navy SEAL to bring range justice to Montana. Kayce and his teammates — Pete Calvin (Logan Marshall-Green), Belle Skinner (Arielle Kebbel), Andrea Cruz (Ash Santos) and Miles Kittle (Tatanka Means) – must balance the high psychological cost of serving as the last line of defense in the region’s war on violence with their duty to their families, which for Kayce includes his son Tate (Brecken Merrill) and his confidantes Mo (Mo Brings Plenty) and Thomas Rainwater (Gil Birmingham) from the Broken Rock reservation.”
What Can We Expect From ‘Marshals’?
Grimes had previously confirmed he thought he was one-and-done following Kayce’s Yellowstone ending, but said new showrunner Spencer Hudnut pitched an idea that finally convinced him. “It opens up a whole new world for him,” Grimes said, teasing a version of Kayce we haven’t seen before — one who’s grieving rather than trying to prove his own family loyalty.
“He has his dream life now, so now what does he do? I think we left him in a perfect place, and then the new showrunner, Spencer [Hudnut], called and he had an idea that was very, very good. And that was it. I was like, ‘Ok, that makes sense. We get to see him be a different Kayce than we’ve ever seen.’”
Produced by Taylor Sheridan alongside MTV Entertainment Studios and 101 Studios, Marshals premieres Sunday, March 1 at 8 p.m. on CBS, with streaming available on Paramount+.

Idris Elba’s 7-Part ‘Snowpiercer’-Style Thriller Is Dominating Streaming Charts
Two years after Snowpiercer wrapped its final run, streaming audiences have clearly been craving another high-stakes, trapped-in-transit thriller — and they’ve found it in Hijack. The Idris Elba-led drama is once again climbing streaming charts, proving that claustrophobic tension and real-time pressure still hit hard. Hijack recently returned for Season 2 on Apple TV, more than two years after its debut season ended.
Critically, the comeback hasn’t been smooth. Season 2 launched with a rough 20% score on Rotten Tomatoes, though that number has since climbed to 58% as more reviews rolled in. That’s a noticeable dip from Season 1’s impressive 90%, and it’s dragged the show’s overall critics’ score down to 74%. The audience score hasn’t landed yet — which could change the conversation — especially considering viewers rated Season 1 at a mixed 51%.
Elba stars as Sam Nelson, a high-powered corporate negotiator who keeps finding himself in very bad places at very bad times. In Season 1, Nelson was trapped aboard Kingdom Flight K29 when it was hijacked midair. Season 2 swaps the plane for a Berlin underground train, once again locking Nelson inside a moving metal tube with lives on the line. The big difference this time? There’s a creeping sense that Nelson may not have ended up here by accident.
Is ‘Hijack’ Worth Watching?
Collider’s review stated that Hijack was an effectively mounted but overstretched thriller that struggled to justify its limited-series format. Led by a reliably compelling Idris Elba, the real-time, skybound drama delivered early tension as a businessman attempted to negotiate his way through a terrorist hijacking using words rather than weapons. That grounded approach initially set the show apart from similar action thrillers, but the novelty wore thin as the episodes piled up.
While Hijack doesn’t need the luminous countdown clock that 24 had, it would have benefited from some sort of looming visual to make the series more immersive. Hijack could have been one of the more thrilling shows to come out this summer, but it’s simply stretching a simple premise far too thin. It lays out multiple subplots that make the story convoluted, and the episodes start to feel repetitive after a while. Elba does his best to carry the story, once again delivering some solid work, but it’s not enough to save this new miniseries from being seized by mediocrity.
Hijack Seasons 1 and 2 are streaming now on Apple TV.

Man Who Allegedly Sent Family Bitcoin Texts Granted Bond
Nancy Guthrie Abduction
ALLEGED BITCOIN TEXTER GETS BOND
Published
The California man facing federal charges for allegedly texting Nancy Guthrie‘s family about the bitcoin ransom payment has been granted bond by a judge — and may be outta federal custody in no time.
Derrick Callella, a 42-year-old man from Hawthorne, made his first court appearance Friday afternoon in U.S. District Court in Santa Ana.
Instagram / @savannahguthrie
U.S. Magistrate Judge Karen E. Scott ordered Callella to be released on $20,000 bond … and he’s been ordered to not to contact the alleged victims or witnesses.
Federal prosecutors claim Callella texted Nancy’s daughter Annie and her son-in-law Tommaso Cioni, “Did you get the bitcoin were [sic] waiting on our end for the transaction.”
The alleged texts were sent Wednesday … after ‘TODAY’ host Savannah Guthrie posted a video acknowledging the ransom letters that were sent to TMZ and two local outlets in Tucson, AZ.
To be clear … in the criminal complaint against Callella, the feds say the text messages he allegedly sent Nancy’s family have NOT been linked to the ransom demand.
It’s not clear if he is out of the joint yet … but Callella is due back in court next Thursday for his arraignment.
