Lil Nas X has dropped a new song, “Right There,” which serves as a sneak peek at his much-awaited Nasarati 2 mixtape. Nasarati was Lil Nas’ 2018 debut mixtape, released months before his breakthrough single, “Old Town Road.”

“THANK U FOR ALL THE BDAY LOVE! The next song from the “NASARATI 2” mixtape “RIGHT THERE” is out now on SoundCloud!… See u next Wednesday,” he shared in a post on X.

The song, which was produced by the New York team of Mark Williams and Raul Cubina, known as Ojivolta, was released on Wednesday after being teased by the “Industry Baby” artist on his Instagram Story in February, according to Billboard. On this most recent track, the 25-year-old continues to provoke and push his creativity.

Hol’ up, lil’ b–ch, what you need? What you need?/ I need a n–ga with loose-lick hips/ I need a model with some big, fake lips/ I just did X in the bathroom stall/ On a B-list star, gettin’ my A-list round/ I’m JK like I’m next to LM/ I’m so drunk that my shit went limp, ayy, ayy/ Pour me some Henny.”

Before the song ends, Lil Nas X displays a more assured side of himself with a few pompous bars.

“Big Nas, come get that work/ Montero, these hoes gon’ flirt/ Lost and found, I can’t find my shirt/ Montero just popped that Perc/ This feel like God in. church/ This scripture a Bible verse/ Buss it open and make it, uh/ Buss it open and make it twerk,’ he continued rapping on the track.

On Instagram, Lil Nas X said he was finally ready to share the songs he had been holding on to. The artist has been open about his struggles choosing songs over his concerns about fans’ perceptions.

“Been hoarding music for years. Smh. I hate my relationship with fear of my songs not doing well and perception. I wish I could just release music and not give af!” he wrote.

If there is anyone you should feel comfortable taking advice from, it’s Kenan Thompson. With a successful career spanning over 30 years, Thompson knows what he’s doing in the entertainment world. Now, his expertise is showing up in the automobile space.Thompson has teamed up again with Autotrader, the nation’s leading online auto marketplace, to offer some of the same priceless advice to car buyers and sellers.

“I’ve loved cars since I was a kid,” he told Blavity in a recent interview.

Thompson’s confidence in working with the “big dogs” of digital auto sales stems from his knowledge of Autotrader’s reliability.

“They [Autotrader] are the number one as far as convenience is concerned. It’s the easiest tool out there with the concept of actual car delivery to your residence,” he said. “They have pretty much thought about everything in the buying process.”

Mexico‘s oldest Black community is fighting to preserve its historic land. Costa Chica, the 250-mile land located along the Pacific Ocean, is home to more Afro-Mexicans than anywhere else in the nation.

In recent years, however, climate change has been making life difficult for the residents of Costa Chica. The historic region is now facing drought, which is causing cracks in the land and weakening the foundations of the village homes built from mud and sand.

Jonathan Majors has finally heard his fate in his domestic abuse case.

Variety reports that the Loki and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania actor has been sentenced to one year of domestic violence counseling as a result of a jury convicting him on two misdemeanor counts of harassment and assault last year.

Majors must finish a 52-week in-person domestic violence program in Los Angeles, and eventually there will be an opportunity for Majors to attend “partly virtual” sessions. Majors must also continue his mental therapy sessions he’s currently taking part in and must continually give progress updates.

Another part of his sentencing is having a permament protection order against him having any contact with his ex-girlfriend Grace Jabbari. If he violates this at all, he could be sent to jail.

Jabbari issued a victim impact statement about how she feels Majors will hurt another woman in the future.

“[Majors] is not sorry and has not accepted responsibilty [for his actions]…He will do it again. He will hurt another woman,” she said. “This is a man who believes he’s above the law. I had a career and life and body, all of which he’s damaged. …I will not rest until he’s not a danger. He refuses to acknowledge guilt and take responsibilty. He remains a danger to all those around him. I’ve seen his anger and he doesn’t have control over it.”

Majors’ lawyers Priya Chaudhry and Seth Zuckerman claimed Jabbari’s statement places unncessary blame on Majors. They called the assertions “abhorrent” and “horrific.”

The sentencing is the result of a tumultuous year for Majors, who lost his rising status in Hollywood after being accused of physical harassment and abuse by Jabbari early 2023. During the trial, Majors debuted his new relationship Meagan Good, something that has confused many of Good’s fans. Both Good and Majors have talked about their new relationship, in which Majors claims he’s found the woman he’s been looking for.
