Drake And Chris Brown Squash 6-Year Beef
T. I. Calls Kanye West's
Trump Meeting ‘A
Repulsive, Disgraceful
Despite canceling several dates on the Aubrey & The Three Amigos Tour, Drake and Migos made it to Los An- geles on Friday (October 12) at The Staples Center. Fans were subjected to a big surprise when Chris Brown hit the stage to perform songs such as “Party” and “Freaky Friday.”
After the unexpected re- union, Drake shared an Insta- gram photo of the duo performing and explained this was the first time they’d shared a stage in nine years.
“This is not a fan edit,” he wrote in the caption. “Last time I was on stage with Breezy was 2009 at Virginia Commonwealth University
And Embarrassing Act
Of Desperation’
T. I. went on an epic tirade following Kanye West’s meeting with Donald Trump at the White House on Thursday (October 11). Along- side a FOX News video clip, T. I. took to Instagram to purge his thoughts on — what he calls — “the most repulsive, disgraceful and embarrassing act of desperation” he’s ever witnessed.
“Now I’ve been extremely patient and made it a point to not jump to any premature conclusions about Ye’ & his antics... Partially due to the lessons learned from the out- come of other similar situa- tions dealing wit my brother Wayne (which I admittedly mishandled a bit in hind- sight),” he wrote in the cap- tion. “But now this sh*t is next level, futuristic Sambo, Hop- ping Bob, Stephen off Django a*% sh*t Ye!!!!
“From what I can gather... This is the most repulsive, dis- graceful, embarrassing act of desperation & auctioning off of one’s soul to gain power I’ve ever seen.”
In April, Tip and Kanye re- leased the collaborative track “Ye Vs. The People” in at- tempt to present both sides of the Trump debate. ‘Ye rattled off reasons he supports him while Tip explained why he’s anti-Trump. But it appears that alliance is over.
During his rant, T. I. reveals ‘Ye asked him to come to the

White House as well.
“Now I recall you asking me
to come with you to have this meeting and I declined (natu- rally)... but bro... if ain’time I would’ve been in there wit you and you behaved that spine- lessly in my presence,I feel that I’d be compelled to slap de’Fuq outta you bro For the People!!!” he continued. “You ass kissing and boot licking on a whole new level &I refuse to associate myself with some- thing so vile,weak,& inconsid- erate to the effect this has on the greater good of ALL OUR PEOPLE!!!!
‘I’m a true believer in “It ain’t what you do,it’s how you do it.” And this sh*t is regurgi- tating! At one time it was a pleasure to work alongside you... now, I’m ashamed to have ever been associated with you.”
Finally, Tip wrapped up his diatribe by asserting their friendship is over.
...tonight I got to reconnect with him for the first night at Staples! I love a good full circle moment. Thank you.”
Drake and Breezy’s drama kicked off in 2012 following a brawl inside SoHo’s W.i.P. Nightclub. At the time, Drake
was rumored to be dating Brown’s ex Rihanna. When Brown allegedly refused to accept of bottle of Ace of Spades champagne from Drake, insults were hurled and the argument eventually turned physical.
Ryan Coogler Signs On To Write And Direct 'Black Panther' Sequel
RYAN COOGLER
The filmmaker behind the $1.3 billion hit is expected to begin penning the follow-up next year, say sources.
Behind Marvel's landmark Black Panther has quietly closed a deal to write and di- rect the sequel.
While the move was ex- pected — Marvel wanted to keep the creative team as in- tact as possible and a sequel was never in any real doubt — the timing was always un- clear.
Black Panther, centering on T'Challa, the king of a fic- tional African country, was an outsized success both com- mercially and critically. The pic, which starred Chadwick Boseman as the titular hero, grossed $700 million domesti- cally and more than $1.3 bil-

lion worldwide, and is also a contender for Oscar consider- ation. The movie became a defining cultural moment and touchstone, especially for the Black community.
In the weeks prior and after the film's February release, both Marvel and Coogler's camp were hounded about when a sequel deal would be inked. Typically, a filmmaker is more than willing to quickly sign on for a follow-up, and a studio is eager to snap up a key piece of talent in the lead-up to or right after a successful opening. But Coogler’s camp shook off the peer pressure and took its time in making a deal, which occurred under the radar some time ago.
Sources say the plan at this stage is for Coogler to write
the script next year with an eye to start production in either late 2019 or early 2020. Mar- vel and parent company Dis- ney, however, have not made any official announcements about Marvel's slate of movies beyond the release of the next Avengers pic in May 2019 and a Spider-Man: Home- coming sequel in July — and plans could shift.
Coogler is developing the drama Wrong Answer with his frequent collaborator and Black Panther star Michael B. Jordan. He also is executive producing Le- Bron James' Space Jam se- quel and acts in the same capacity on the up- coming Creed 2.
Coogler is repped by WME and Cohen & Gardner.
