Future Says Blu Jasmine “Big Capping” After She Claimed He Offered 5 Stacks For Sex

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Prince Williams / Getty Future has earned a reputation as a so-called “sniper” when it comes to the ladies, although he’s also known for having a ton of kids due to his galavanting ways. However, he clearly knows discernment after refuting claims that he offered Instagram model Blu Jasmine $5,000 for sex after she appeared on Twitch with DJ Akademiks. Blu Jasmine, who frames herself as a “Motivational Speaker,” hopped on Twitch with Ak and the discussion was apparently about rappers paying for the privilege of a young lady’s time. Blu claimed that women are getting $10,000 from Future but Ak wasn’t believing it. In fact, Blu then said that the “Stick Talk” rapper offered her half of that amount but Akademiks didn’t believe her. Adding to that disbelief, F...

Cuba blames unrest on U.S. interference as Joe Biden backs protests

Cuba blamed historic protests that took place over the weekend on U.S. “economic asphyxiation” and social media campaigns by a minority of U.S.-financed counter-revolutionaries, while U.S. President Joe Biden said he stood with the Cuban people.

At least 80 protesters, activists, and independent journalists had been detained nationwide since Sunday, according to exile...
