The petty is on full display as rumors of rapper Lil Baby being romantically attached to Saweetie, who besides being an accomplished rapper is also Quavo’s ex, means the jokes and slander is firing on all cylinders. Source: Prince Williams / Getty Our totally unscientific research points back to some posts, with minimal actually reporting, about Lil Baby allegedly taking Saweetie on pricey shopping streak ($100K, surely there are receipts, and photos) in New York City.

Lil Baby Hilariously Does the #JunebugChallenge w/ Meek Mill & Michael Rubin

Source: Prince Williams / Getty Lil Baby was spotted at the Super Bowl LV over the weekend doing the #JunebugChallenge on TikTok with some of his famous friends.   The video is quite comical, featuring an oddly coordinated group crowded around the rapper in a blatant attempt to go viral on the popular platform.  As soon as SpotemGottem’s “Beatbox” drops, the group, featuring Meek Mill and Philadelphia 76ers owner Michael Rubin, awkwardly jolted their arms up and down reminiscent of the choreography in Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” video. Meek transitioned into a version of the Millie Rock towards the end before the video cuts off.   It’s clear from another post on Rubin’s Instagram page that they were hanging out in an owner’s box at Raymond James Stadium.  A v...
