Teyana Taylor Announces Second Leg Of Her Final ‘The Last Rose Petal 2… Farewell Tour’
Last year, Teyana Taylor announced she would be retiring from music.
In an Instagram caption, she wrote, “How lucky am I to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard. However for every goodbye God makes the next hello closer. Come out and watch me, leave it all out on the stage… One last time… Just for you [and] as my last rose petal falls, I say farewell…”
Announcing ‘The Last Rose Petal… Farewell Tour,’ Taylor spent much of November saying her goodbyes in a 12-date tour with stops in Los Angeles, Houston, Chicago, Detroit, Toronto, and New York and wrapped up the month in Atlanta.

Is BIA Feuding with Cardi B?
Earlier this month, tensions between BIA and Cardi B appeared to be building.
The alleged feud came when Cardi B released her “Like What (freestyle),” sampling Missy Elliott‘s 1999 single, “She’s A Bi**h.” This prompted BIA to address the matter on X (formerly known as Twitter), highlighting similarities to her own track, “I’m That B***h,” featuring Timbaland, which also sampled the same record.

The feud progressed when Cardi B previewed her new record, “Enough (Miami),” which fans think draws parallel to BIA’s 2023 ‘REALLY HER‘ EP single, “Fallback.” The visual to Cardi’s new record also similarly looks like BIA’s “Millions.”
It’s getting weird

Ahead of the record’s release, Cardi responded on X, teasing, “B**ches make a fool of themselves every single time [crying face emoji] .. ima show ya something when I release this song tho [winking face emoji].”

Their relationship wasn’t always strained. In 2021, Cardi’s breakout hit “Bodak Yellow” achieved diamond certification, which prompted BIA to express admiration on social media. “If you’re not inspired you’re not paying attention,” she acknowledged. “You can at least be a fan of someone’s work ethic, growth, and contributions. & I’ve been writing for 10 years, what she’s accomplished is NOT EASY.”
Addressing rumors of a rift, BIA clarified, “Sweetie, I didn’t switch up on anybody because I don’t know Cardi in real life. I’ve never met Cardi, we’ve never had a conversation. Like, I don’t have no issues with her, it’s all love, but I don’t know her. Y’all do too much on this app, I don’t know her in real life.”
She ended with, “Ask me about somebody I know. Ask me about somebody I’ve met in real life, not online.”

Kanye West Celebrates ‘Carnival’ Hitting No. 1, Calls Out Drake, Adidas & More
Kanye West took a moment to celebrate the success of his collaboration with Ty Dolla $ign, the single ‘Carnival’ from their joint project Vultures: Vol 1, as it made its mark on the Billboard Hot 100. Teaming up with Playboi Carti and Rich the Kid, Ye also dropped the official music video on YouTube. Expressing his gratitude, he shared a statement on Instagram, extending thanks to Ty Dolla Sign, Playboi Carti, and Rich the Kid, for attributing the song’s success to their collective effort and the support of their fans who stood by them through thick and thin, championing resilience against systemic manipulation.
Within his reflection, Kanye, of course took the opportunity to address certain grievances, calling out Drake for what he perceived as an untimely move by including Lil Durk at the beginning of the Vultures rollout. Drake recently brought along Lil Durk into the closing dates of his tour, It’s All a Blur – Big as the What?, alongside J. Cole.
“And it’s f**k Drake for taking Durk right at the beginning of the Vultures role out.”
Durk is featured on the title track of Vultures with Ye and Ty Dolla Sign.
Ye also took the opportunity to once again, Adidas, as well as the U.K. outlet, Daily Mail, and Hailey Bieber.
“F**k Adidas and everybody who works there,” he wrote. “F**k everybody at the fashion houses that sided with Gabby and Hailey Bieber.”
