NBA YoungBoy wasted no time responding to NLE Choppa‘s recent attack, dropping his own diss track “Zero IQ” that takes direct aim at the Memphis rapper’s intelligence and credibility in the Hip-Hop game.

YoungBoy’s “Zero IQ” title appears to be a direct shot at Choppa’s intellectual capacity, suggesting the Memphis rapper lacks the mental acuity to engage in this level of Hip-Hop warfare.

“My career been jumpin’ up out of the gym and I’m ridin’ ’round with a M, ho/I’ll kill your ass, I’ll flash, you ain’t gon’ play with me like them, no

I done gave my n##### bags,” NBA Youngboy raps.

The Baton Rouge native’s response comes just weeks after NLE Choppa, who now goes by NLE The Great, released his scathing “KO” track on October 30.

Choppa’s initial assault borrowed heavily from 2Pac’s legendary “Hit Em Up,” using the same Dennis Edwards sample while delivering pointed accusations about YoungBoy’s influence on young fans.

In “KO,” Choppa positioned himself as a spiritual corrective force, claiming YoungBoy “poison[s] the youth” and serves as a negative role model.

The track featured aggressive bars like “YoungBoy, what? This the big boy league/ I put one up in your gut under the Jesus piece/ Last thing that I heard was ‘Jesus, please’/ Had me looking at the devil like ‘This is your king.’”

Choppa’s motivation for the diss stemmed from what he described as a divine vision.

In a recent Rolling Stone interview, the rapper explained he was “awakened out of my sleep with a vivid dream” involving “holding a young boy’s head in my hand.”

He interpreted this as a calling from a higher power to hold YoungBoy accountable for his perceived negative influence.

Young Thug sought clarity and counsel in Manhattan, where the Atlanta rapper met with Rabbi Yoshiyahu Pinto following his release from custody tied to the YSL RICO case.

The Hip-Hop artist visited Rabbi Pinto’s private residence just weeks after being engulfed in drama, claiming he snitched and cooperated in the YSL saga that ended with Young Thug taking a plea deal to secure his freedom in the high-profile racketeering case.

The session focused on the rapper’s personal struggles and his hopes for a stable return to music while navigating strict probation terms.

Photos and videos of the meeting were shared on Rabbi Pinto’s official social media, showing the two in conversation. The rabbi’s post described the encounter as a moment of “guidance to the international rapper.”

Young Thug’s legal resolution included a 40-year sentence, with the first five years credited as time served, followed by 15 years of probation, with a potential 20-year sentence if his probation is violated.

The agreement also came with tight restrictions.

He is barred from entering the Atlanta metro area for the next decade, unless for court or family emergencies and must avoid any contact with co-defendants or known gang affiliates.

The plea deal also mandates community service and educational outreach on gang prevention. These terms were part of what allowed the Grammy-winning performer to avoid a much longer prison stint.

The YSL RICO case, which accused Young Thug’s YSL Records of functioning as a criminal enterprise, has seen multiple co-defendants accept plea deals, including Gunna, who was accused of ratting out his co-defendants.

Young Thug’s visit to Rabbi Pinto mirrors a similar move by Kanye West, who also sought the rabbi’s guidance during a public low point.

“I was dealing with some various issues, bipolar, also, so it would take the ideas I had and had them, take them to an extreme where I would forget about the protection of the people around me and myself,” West explained to Rabbi Pinto. “Some people aren’t that knowledgeable about what causes it and the way you act when you have the disease.”

The rabbi has become a sought-after spiritual advisor for celebrities, particularly those in the entertainment industry who are navigating personal or professional upheaval.

Kim Kardashian turned heads and camera lenses Friday in Rio de Janeiro when she posed beneath the towering Christ the Redeemer statue wearing a sheer hot pink dress that blurred the line between reverence and runway.

The reality mogul and SKIMS founder shared the striking moment with her 354 million Instagram followers, letting the vivid visuals and a pink heart emoji do the talking.

The 44-year-old entrepreneur chose a daring, body-hugging gown with a plunging neckline for the visit, pairing the look with a sculpted updo and soft-glam makeup.

Purple lighting cast dramatic shadows across the religious landmark, highlighting both the statue and Kardashian’s silhouette in equal measure.

Her post included a photo from a 2013 trip to the same site, where she also wore pink, drawing a fashion parallel more than a decade apart.

The callback wasn’t lost on her followers, who flooded the comments with praise. The post racked up over 9,000 comments within hours.

This high-profile moment capped off Kardashian’s extended stay in Brazil, where she has been promoting her upcoming projects.

Earlier in the week, she appeared at the “All’s Fair” premiere in São Paulo wearing a custom Connor Ives gown made from 100-year-old Edwardian fans, a nod to sustainable luxury.

The timing of her South American tour follows a personal and professional hurdle—her most recent failure to pass the California bar exam. According to industry insiders, the trip served dual purposes: promoting business and providing a personal reset after the setback.

Kardashian’s wardrobe throughout the trip has drawn consistent media attention, with paparazzi capturing each look. Her Christ the Redeemer appearance, however, stood out as the most visually arresting of the tour.

A chiropractor in New York City described a recent uncomfortable situation while having a night out. Specifically, a girl he was chatting to for only five minutes opened up his phone and tried to Paypal herself. 

“ The New York City dating scene is absolutely cooked,” said TikTok user Dr. Johnny (@drjohnny_), a popular content creator and chiropractor in a video that’s garnered more than 28,000 views. “These girls are unhinged.”

In the video, Dr. Johnny revealed that he met a woman when he was out at a bar having drinks. After speaking to her for a few minutes, he learned that she was training for the New York City Marathon. He mentioned that he’s a chiropractor and he works with a lot of athletes.

“She says, ‘Great, let me see your Instagram,’” he said. “I catch her trying to send herself a $200 donation from my Papal account to her marathon fund.”

Is the Modern Dating Scene Too Financially Motivated?

A survey done of Australians this year found that a fifth of those asked about their dating criteria cited “financial reasons.” The data suggests that financial security is becoming a driving force in the modern dating world.

In particular, younger generations indicated a higher level of preoccupation with financial circumstances in dating partners. The survey found 32% of Gen-Z respondents said they’ve dated or would date for financial security. 

Another survey found 42% of singles rate finances as a top priority when choosing a partner.

Are Dating Scams Becoming More Common?

Romance scams are becoming bolder and more sophisticated. That’s because of organized crime involvement and the prevalence of AI. Millions of people fall victim to these scams every year at a cost of more than $500 billion.

So, if a Tinder match (or even just the person at the bar you’ve been chatting with for five minutes) asks for money, daters should beware.

“If an online love interest asks you for money, that’s a scam. Period. Don’t send a reload, prepaid, or gift card; don’t wire money; and don’t send cryptocurrency to someone you met online,” said Ari Lazarus, a consumer education specialist writing for the Federal Trade Commission.  

We’ve reached out to Dr. Johnny for comment via TikTok direct message. We’ll let you know if he responds.
