Ray J added that Brandy “needs a nice, good, wholesome guy that’s gonna be honest.” Mal joked and said, “That’s not Joe.” Budden shut that down and replied, “Don’t do that. I just told you I love Brandy… I might need to pull up.” To say that Joe was excited as the prospect is an understatement.

Brandy recently caught up with L.A.’s Power 106 radio station and was asked about her thoughts on Joe Budden‘s proposal, and it doesn’t look good for the “Pump It Up” rapper. She didn’t say she wasn’t interested, but she won’t consider the possiblity because Budden is friends with Ray J.

“My brother’s homies are like my brothers, my friends. No,” said Brandy. Too bad for Joe. Check out Brandy on Power 106 below.

Among the many highlights off of Shoot For The Stars Aim For The Moon is Pop Smoke and Lil Tjay‘s “Mood Swings.” The song added to their hot streak as collaborators with songs like “Mannequin,” “War” and “Zoo York.” A fan favorite, Pop Smoke’s camp recently confirmed that a remix to the song would be dropping this week. A post on @shootforthestars shared the cover art for the remix which blanks out a surprise feature. It’s unclear who it might be but we’ll find out soon. The song is set to drop on Sept. 18th.

Shoot For The Stars Aim For The Moon has been doing huge numbers since its release. It’s maintained a steady spot within the top 10 on the Billboard 200. This week, it hit #2 on the Billboard 200, just below Big Sean‘s Detroit 2.

Who do you think is on the remix to Pop Smoke and Lil Tjay‘s “Mood Swings?” Sound off in the comments.

Hit-Boy took to Instagram after Kanye West called out the music industry, labeling them “modern-day slave ships.” Hit-Boy started off by explaining why things between him and Kanye have been awry in the first place. “I haven’t been a fan of Kanye on a personal/ human level since he told me face to face he stopped picking my beats because I worked with Beyoncé,” Hit-Boy said before revealing this was after he had produced several hits for WTT and Cruel Summer.

Kanye West scared a screenshot of Hit-Boy‘s post, along with a tweet reading, “From HITBOY LETS GOOOOOO.” Ye later explained his side of the story, kind of. “I DIDN’T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH HIM PRODUCING FOR BEYONCE… I HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE FACT HE SIGNED TO ME AND I DIDN’T KNOW BUT I KNEW JAY AND BEYONCE AND HIT-BOY… JUST FOR CLARITY.”

Not sure if anyone really left with clarity since many of the replies are trying to decipher the tweet itself. Either way, that’s Ye’s side of the story and clearly, he’s going to stick with it.
