    😠Taraji P. & Erykah Badu Create Outrage

    Stephy Says πŸ’‹ if you haven’t heard, Taraji P. Henson has sparked a flame & has some fans outraged.

    David Barden wrote this article just this morning at 4:01 AM & Huffpost released this story 😱

    Apparently, Taraji P. attempted to equate & compare the Surviving R. Kelly (#muteRKelly) to the old sick skeezer Harvey Weinstein. She basically reportedly called out society for the hushed responds to Harvey Weinstein’s sex assaults while R. Kelly’s flourished all over the internet.

    In the alleged deleted Instagram video, Taraji searched the #muteRKelly hashtag & yielded multiple results, while #muteHarveyWeinstein only yielded 1 result used on 29 posts.

    Her attempt to compare the two left Twitter users in a frenzy stating that they aren’t sure what her point is, or what exactly she’s trying to prove.

    After the stir on social media, Taraji comes back to clarify in attempt to make things right.

    This post will be updated as the story updates.

    🚨More articles posted here & here 🚨


    If you haven’t been following the story, Erykah Badu stated that she was “praying for R. Kelly,” & some felt as if she was “letting him off the hook” or downsizing his crimes to”poor choices” & condoning his behavior.

    Screenshot courtesy of Pitchfork

    Even with the backlash, Erykah Badu supports his healing. (Stephy Says πŸ’‹ not excusing his behavior but, be open minded & remember that even if he turned out to be a sexual predator, he was once a victim).

    With her choice of words being taken out of context, this set off the Twitter fans & they are backing her.

    She was accused of stating that R. Kelly has done more for the black community than any one has & here’s her clarification for that :

    Erykah Badu entered a Twitter war with the executive director of Surviving R. Kelly docu-series. According to Jezebel, Erykah Badu denies ever being asked to be in the Surviving R. Kelly docu-series.

    Keeping πŸ†™with the Jetts

    Stephy Says πŸ’‹Here’s an update of the power couple L. Terrel & Rachel Rae:

    Since the last blog post, Var & Rae Plus 8, quite a few changes have occured.

    I was ranting and raving about how amazing this power couple was, but since October 2018, the Jetts have managed to level up once more. Their relocation to Georgia, from a small town in VA, has already greeted them with life changing events.

    L. Terrel has been performing regularly to his rapidly growing fan base in Georgia, all the while showing love to his hometown fans and supporters as they continue supporting him. Along with performances, L. Terrel also has his hits spinning at the local radio station.

    His EP “Stay Up” has dropped & it’s πŸ”₯! I know this from personal experience. I purchased the EP & I haven’t stopped listening to it since I purchased it. It’s available on iTunes. The song that I personally listen to & have on repeat is —Sorry. Everything he said in that song, πŸ—£I FELT THAT ‼️

    L. Terrel has newness is dropping soon–πŸŽŠπŸŽ‰πŸŽπŸŽˆπŸŽ‚Birthday Girl featuring Era will be available on all platforms on January 26th! (Birthday Girl release countdown will be available on Stephysays.com).



    RACHEL RAEBeside every good man, is a great woman! His lovely wife Rachel Rae, has been making her presence both known & felt in the modeling, fashionπŸ‘—πŸ‘ , and make up πŸ’„world in ATL. This melaninated queen is the epitome of black girl magic.οΏΌ She’s naturally & unapologetically dope. Rachel Rae’s make up skills & precision in applying makeup is unmatched. In fact, her clients hated to see her leave VA, but were supportive in her endeavors. Her makeup expertise was widespread throughout the DMV (Washington, DC, Maryland, & VA) with Georgia being added to her map of success. Because of her natural beauty & flawless skin, modeling comes naturally for her. Check out the pics & how effortlessly she poses & captures your attention. 😍

    Here are a few reasons you should follow her journey:

    ✨she’s gorgeous

    ✨she’s relatable

    ✨she’s humble

    ✨ she’s supportive

    ✨she’s encouraging

    ✨she’s talented

    ✨she’s dope

    ✨ she wants to see everybody win!

    These qualities & characteristics merely scratch the surface of who Rachel Rae.

    L. Terrel & Rachel Rae remind me of Dwayne Wade & Gabrielle Union. They are fun, but also bosses making boss moves. They have every tool it takes to delve into a successful career. They have a drive to succeed, receive motivation from one another, and are ambitious. In fact, they are so ambitious, they left behind a familiar life and began a new journey in order to fulfill the dream. Their dreams will be fulfilled & Stephy Says πŸ’‹ you should stay tuned & follow them on this journey.

    πŸ—£Soulja Boy Told’em

    Stephy Says πŸ’‹ Soulja Boy is back & this time he is on a come up. This is a come back & I must say, I’m LOVING this guy now! He’s headlining the internet & I am here for it!

    He just about broke the internet with 3.5 million views on his interview with the Breakfast Club in 24 hours 😱

    If you haven’t been following Soulja Boy’s stories, here’s a clip from the Breakfast Club Interview with Soulja Boy. He’s back & demanding his respect for making these “relevant” rappers who they are today. Soulja Boy calls out Drake for stealing his line, flow, and bars. He even goes as far as saying, “I taught him everything he know.”

    In addition to calling out Drake, Soulja Boy also went in on Kanye West bashing him for supporting President Trump. Pop Culture released an article of Soulja Boy’s words about Yeezy. He said everything he wanted to say & he did so with no remorse stating,

    β€œYou up here supporting Trump and sβ€”,” he said. β€œYou supporting Trump, bruh? What the fβ€” wrong with you, bruh. That sβ€” not right, bruh. I have sat back long enough and I’m not holding my tongue no more, bruh. Kanye, call me, get in tune with me cause if not I’m going to keep checking you.”

    β€œMy folks went through too much sβ€” for you to be out here doing this goofy sβ€”,” he went on. β€œMy grandaddy been through too much, my grandma and great grandaddy, they from Mississippi and they from Mississipi, we went through slavery and sβ€”. You gotta put on for the black community.”


    Soulja Boy is cutting no slack on anyone! He has also been trolling Ariana Grande on Twitter & accusing her of stealing his flow From Kiss me Through the Phone. Crazy enough, it seems like he has the fan support.


    I’m not sure of the age range of those reading my blog, but here are a few songs Soulja Boy is known for:

  • Crank That (and that hit had everybody doing the yooooouuuuu)
  • Kiss Me Through the Phone
  • Yahhh!
  • Pretty Boy Swag
  • Turn My Swag On
  • Donk

  • According to hotnewhiphop.com, one of the Migos, Quavo, confirmed that Soulja Boy influenced alot of the music we are hearing today. If you read the article (hotnewhiphop.com) as previously mentioned, Quavo’s statement was “Soulja most definitely influenced a lot of everybody’s work. He’s speaking facts. He hasn’t said anything wrong.”
  • In addition to Quavo’s support, Soulja Boy also has the support of Meek Mill.
  • Hiphopdx.com mentioned in their article that countless people backed Big Soulja up on Twitter, demanding others give Soulja credit where credit is due.

  • Revolt released an article titled “9 ways Soulja Boy revolutionized today’s hip hop culture”. Do you agree? Let me know in the comments πŸ“₯πŸ“₯

  • *According to Twitter:

  • Billboard released their article about Soulja Boy beefs here

  • I think it’s safe to say Soulja Boy is once again a sensation!

    πŸ‘†πŸ½Stay πŸ†™ with L. Terrel

    Stephy Says πŸ’‹ I briefly mentioned L. Terrel in a previous blog post with his BEAUTIFUL & talented wife. (Check out the post Var & Rae plus 8). In that post, I spoke moreso about their personal life.

    Allow me to call your attention to L. Terrel – the ARTIST!

    L. Terrel is originally from a small town, Franklin, Virginia, where he has grown a fan base for over a decade. As far as I can remember, his whole life has been music, & I’ve had the privilege of hearing him grow & mature as an artist. He easily had a Chris Brown vibe singing while growing older. His voice has definitely matured into a real & raw one that demands your attention as soon as he opens his mouth.


    If you didn’t check out the previous post, I will take a few seconds to revisit some of the statements I made about L.Terrel. His voice is insanely good.

    Don’t believe me?

    You have to watch this video & it’s one of my favorite songs! (Issa vibe) — (he HAS to sing this at my wedding 😝)

    L. Terrel has developed & continuously develops into a star. He works diligently to perfect his craft & shamelessly promotes and markets himself. That alone is sure to cause him to rise to stardom. Stephy Says πŸ’‹ trust me when I say, L.Terrel will be one of the next top names in music! Be on the lookout for him. πŸ‘€

    Since the last post, he & his lovely family have moved to Atlanta, Georgia in effort to follow their dreams. According to what Stephy Says πŸ’‹, this is another reason L. Terrel is destined to be a star 🌟 Within the first month of the transition he has already performed his hit single β€œStay Up” and been included in rotation on the local radio station.

    Singing & music isn’t just what he does, it’s who he is. Singing is his dream, yet also his reality. With his versatile voice, he’s able to flawlessly sing any rendition of any song of choice from soul to RnB to pop.

    πŸ’«πŸš€Space -Kataya

    If you have visited my blog before, this young lady won’t be a stranger to you as you have seen her before in Kataya & the Flawless Fall Face. You met her in one capacity, but let me introduce her to you in a different spotlight.

    This beauty has dropped her new hit single “Space” & it’s available on iTunes. Since dropping it, she’s already gotten major love & support from fans, both old & new.


    This song issa vibe! I’ve had it on repeat since I’ve purchased it. I first heard a clip of it on her Twitter page & have been anxiously waiting for it to drop!

    The time has arrived!

    Let me tell you….it was WELL worth the wait.

    She perfectly summed up everything I feel in a perfect melody that also happens to be flawlessly self mixed. Her producer Kauntent is sheer genius for producing this hit.


    πŸ‘£Follow Kauntent on Twitter : @Kauntent

    πŸ‘£πŸ“·Follow Kauntent on Instagram: @Kauntent

    πŸ‘£πŸ“§ Kauntent@outlook.com


    Kataya’s model, personal Queen, & inspiration Aaliyah is credited for her style, vocals, & personality. She completely embodies Aaliyah in her hit “Space.” You can hear Aaliyah’s vibe & energy vibrating from the speakers. This song travels through your soul. I’m led to believe that if Aaliyah were still living, she would be honored by & proud of her protΓ©gΓ©. (Follow Kataya on Instagram & you can see an uncanny resemblance to Aaliyah‘s style😍)

    *Stephy Says πŸ’‹ does not own rights to these images*

    The goal of any artist should be creating a mood or awakening feelings in listeners & Kataya successfully did just that! Stephy Says πŸ’‹ Support her & show her some love

    ✍🏽️🎢Lyrical & Gifted

    A-List Celebrity according to what Stephy Says πŸ’‹

    I have been working on this post for weeks because I wanted to perfectly embody this next artist. I wanted to serve justice to the type of dope individual & artist he is.

    So, if I could have your undivided attention…..

    πŸ—£Meet S.W. The lyrical & gifted viral sensation. I take great pride in saying that I have the pleasure of knowing him personally.

    In fact, I pity the ones who don’t know him or better yet, the ones that haven’t heard his music 🎢

    S.W. is the master mind behind the dopest project thus far, Lyrical & Gifted. Available on all platforms! And trust me, it’s worth your time & worth the listen. 2018 is ending & you don’t want to go into 2019 without hearing these hits!

    You won’t hear a song that you don’t vibe to & if you do, I’m sorry to say it, but that would have to be the furthest from the truth. (πŸ—£ISSA LIE ‼️)

    Check out these reviews & his testimonial:


    If you haven’t heard, he’s the artist that put the #8thcity on the map with the hit “My City”

    To find out what city he’s claimed, be sure to check out the video!

    Here are a few screenshots from the video My City ‼️ (Long Live Lil πŸ…±οΈπŸ₯€)


    S.W. has made yet another hit with over 17,000 views! One of my favorite songs “You” featuring Rofel, Rick Rogers, Lasyha Millz, & Buddy Reaves. This one is definitely one for the books!

    It’s so geniusly put together & well versed. It captures my sentiments exactly. The lyrists/artists that feature on this song give you dope line after dope line. The flows are different from each artist, but it blends into a perfect song. (Shout out Ill Grind for the shoot btw)

    Wanna know how he feels about those that people that dislike him or his music? Listen to “You”

    This undiscovered legend is the epitome of a celebrity with a rapidly growing fan base. He has it all from lyrics to charisma to making his struggle look lavish 🍾

    He continues to master this art & has been performing from VA to NY. To add to his resume, he will be opening up for Ace Hood on December 21st .

    Now that I’ve somewhat given you a glimpse of S.W., you might want to head over & check out his music so you aren’t left out of the loop when he hits the big stage.

    ✨This is Marcus Canty

    A-List Celebrity according to Stephy Says πŸ’‹

    *Picture from Google Images*

    A few years ago, I remember sitting on my couch as X Factor aired its auditions. There was this 20 year old guy that flashed across the TV & began sharing that his mother gave him 2 years after graduation to shoot his shot at music before he would have to go to school & get a “real job.”

    Marcus Canty.A name I knew I would remember forever. He’s not exactly a “no name,” but he definitely isn’t on a mainstream as I feel he should be. But forget the rules, he’s an A-List Celebrity according to what Stephy Says πŸ’‹ ‼️

    I remember falling in love with him immediately. His energy was contagious & positive vibes vibrated through the TV. He was just the guy to love….I was just hoping he could sing.

    His audition song was “I Wish” by Stevie Wonder & he nailed it. L.A. Reid said Marcus reminded him of a young Bobby Brown & Simon Cowell said that Marcus reminded him of Usher Raymond. Both of which are A1 & official artists. The performance was emotional, and I promise my eyes sweat every time I watch it. “I’m not crying, you’re crying.

    As the season progressed, and he continued to grow as a singer, I grew to love him more.

    His rendition of”All my Life” was K-Ci & Jo Jo was flawless at the judge’s house episode & made me fall in love knowing that I was single. πŸ€¦πŸ½β€β™€οΈπŸ€·πŸ½β€β™€οΈ

    Catch him singing “I’m Going Down” by Mary J. Blige & he makes you feel every word of the song. It made me hurt like I was the one experiencing the break up. πŸ˜†

    Though he didn’t win, I continued following him on all his platforms & I promise “In & Out” featuring Wale is my favorite song!

    *Picture from Wikipedia & Google Images*

    Check out these still shots from his video “In & Out” on YouTube
