Congratulations to Tu Face and his long-standing babymama, Pero Adeniyi as the unofficial couple welcomes a baby boy in the United States of America.

Tu Face and his Fiancee, Annie Macaulay were spotted yesterday at Abuja's airport and so its unclear when Tu Face will be visiting his baby boy and his baby mama in the United States.

Meanwhile, Annie who got engaged to Tu Face on February 14, 2012, seem to have issued a warning on her twitter handle, obviously to anyone who might want to take advantage of her present predicament to start casting aspersions.



So be warned leave our new step mama alone.....but you can congratulate her....

Tu Face now has six kids to himself. Huge family I suppose.

Fans might be amped about Kanye West's latest song, Theraflu," which hit the net (April 5), but the cold medicine company the song is named after isn't too happy.

Theraflu released a statement to TMZ about 'Ye's title choice, expressing their displeasure with it.

"We in no way endorse or approve of the references or use of the image and likeness of Theraflu in this manner," a company rep told the entertainment site.

Although Yeezy named the song after Theraflu, which helps fight colds, he uses the title to reference how "cold" he is towards his enemies.

As previously reported, Kanye revealed his love for reality star Kim Kardashian on the track, rapping, "I admit I fell in love with Kim, 'Round the same time she fell in love with him / Well that's cool baby girl, do your thing, lucky I ain't have Jay drop him from the team." (Jay-Z is a part-owner of the New Jersey Nets, the team Kim Kardashian's ex-husband Kris Humphries plays for.)

Kim appeared on NBC's Today Show today and said she liked Kanye's song, adding that the two have been friends for a long time and that she's excited about what the future might hold for them. And while she didnt flat out say they were dating, People Magazine reports they indeed are in the early stages of a relationship as the two were recently seen leaving a movie theater in New York City and then on a lunch date on Thursday (April 5).

There is no word yet on whether Theraflu is planning on suing Kanye West.

The Top 10 Most Popular Hip Hop Singles The Week Of 4/8/2012

The first full week of April just happened, and with it came tons of new music. Rappers must have Spring Fever or something because after a period of radio silence, we're now dealing with an outpouring of sounds from some of Hip Hop's favorites. It's a welcome addition to our iPods, but we can't help but wonder what makes an artist extra eager to drop music once the 1st Quarter fades out. Either way, there was a lot on this list from fan favorites. This week proved that musically, March droughts bring April showers.

Eminem and Paris Hilton Helped Out On April Fool's Day

Every year, we at DX enjoy making up a track title on April Fool's Day to a song that probably will never happen. Past hits include "Re-Tox," a made up Detox leak, along with some Lil Wayne and Eminem cameos for good measure. This year we opted for the oh so creative "Shady In Paris," a spin on Jay-Z and Kanye West's "N**gas In Paris," only featuring Eminem and Paris Hilton. That will probably never happen - we know this - but that didn't stop you, the audience from checking it out. We stumped you again, and that little prank made its way to #3. Above that one at #2 was the instantly successful "Theraflu" from Kanye West with DJ Khaled and DJ Pharris. Just in time for Good Friday, it seems like Ye is back with G.O.O.D. Fridays (check out "Mercy" when you can). While a prank and some "Theraflu" made it to the Top 3, the Number One stunna was Kendrick Lamar, as he and Dr. Dre delivered "The Recipe." That made it to #1; maybe KDot can share the recipe for releasing a new album to Dre. Hint Hint.

California Republic Proves That It's All Game Everything

The wait is finally over and Game delivered his latest mixtape, California Republic. Game is never one to shy away from song leaks, and two days prior to the mixtape's release, he began dropping tracks left and right. The first was a DX exclusive (thanks, Game!), "Bills Is Paid" with Nipsey Hu$$le. That landed at #4. At #5? "Skate On" with Lupe Fiasco. At #6? "It Must Be Tough" with Pharrell. Then Game showed up again at #9 with the Fat Joe and Young Chris assisted "Grey Stone." That's four Game tracks on one singles list. Talk about a record! Let's not forget though that T.I. also climbed on board the list this week with his track "Love This Life" in at #7. Depending upon when Trouble Man actually hits, it might be a good idea for Tip to drop a mixtape of his own soon, no? Closing out the list at #10 was Curren$y's joint with Wale, "What It Look Like," and somewhere in between was Childish Gambino's "Eat Your Vegetables" at #8. That's sound advice, Mr. Glover.

Police rescue 7 year-old boy from kidnappers

Asaba – The Police Command in Delta has rescued a seven-year old boy from kidnappers in Asaba, Delta, the Commissioner of Police, Mr Ikechukwu Aduba, said.

Aduba  told newsmen in Asaba on Thursday that the police also arrested nine armed robbery and kidnapping suspects in the last two days.

“We have recovered arms and ammunition and 30 vehicles and working hard to rid the state of hoodlum,.’’ He said.

On the rescued boy, Aduba explained that “after robbing his parents, the robbers took him away in a Lexus Jeep to Ogbe-Ijor Water Side.

`The police accosted the hoodlums and they abandoned their boat, the jeep and the boy and escaped.

“The police attacked another hoodlum’s hideout and rescued two males from kidnappers at Oworhodo village, in Udu, on April 4.

“The items recovered from them included 16 rounds of 9mm live ammunition and eight rounds of live cartridges,” the commissioner said.

He  said that the armed robbery suspects were arrested in Asaba, Aladja, Agbor and Ughelli areas and added that efforts were being made to arrest others now at large.

The commissioner called on the public to assist the police and not to rush to pay ransom to  hoodlums when their relations were kidnapped.

He said that without useful information the police could not work effectively.

Aduba commended Mrs Winifred Akpani, the Managing Director North West Petroleum and Gas Company Limited for donating two Toyota Hilux Vans to the Divisional Police Headquarters, Ibusa, to enhance security in the area.

Inquest into youth killed by police DPO at anti-subsidy removal protest begins

After two adjournments, the judicial inquiry to determine the cause of death of Ademola Aderinto, who was allegedly shot by a police officer during the anti-fuel subsidy protests, began at the Ikeja Magistrate Court on Wednesday with the police calling their first witness.

The inquest was initiated by the Nigeria Bar Association (NBA) and Access to Justice, a human rights group, following the death of Mr. Aderinto, 27.

After Olumide Alagbe, a police inspector, entered the witness box to narrate the January 9th incident at Ogba, Lagos, which also led to four others sustaining gunshot wounds; the inquest was adjourned to April 11th.

'Accidental discharge'

Testifying from the written statement of Segun Fabunmi, the Divisional Police Officer who allegedly shot the deceased and who is still in police custody at the State Criminal Investigation Department, Panti; Mr. Alagbe said that the deceased was "struggling arms with the police."

"In the statement, he (Mr. Fabunmi) said that he received a distress call from the control room that some hoodlums were attacking and dispossessing innocent citizens of the country.

"That when he got there, the hoodlums numbering 200 attacked them, throwing bottles, stones.

"In the struggling, the trigger went off," said Mr. Alagbe.

Mr. Alagbe maintained that the bullet which killed Mr. Aderinto penetrated his right thigh during the struggle; contrary to the postmortem report from the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital which stated that the bullet penetrated through the deceased's back.

'A good start'

While addressing journalists after the sitting, Yinka Farounbi, counsel to the NBA, described the commencement of the case "as a very good start."

"We are happy that the police has revealed their witness," said Mr. Farounbi, Ikeja NBA's first vice chairman.

"They have taken the evidence from the police officer from Panti and by the next adjourned date, there will be cross examination of the witness," he added.

Speaking in the same vein, Leonard Dibia, of Access to Justice, noted that the documents tendered by the police would be examined at the next sitting, adding that the inquest would be concluded early.

"There is just one life that was lost and so the physical evidence is really narrowed down to about two or three persons, most importantly, eye witness accounts," said Mr. Dibia.

Cyril Ejiofor, the counsel representing the Commissioner of Police, said that the police have their witnesses and would call them as the case progresses.

"All I can tell you now is that the coroner for that matter has opened," said Mr. Ejiofor.



Rihanna on Chris Brown Reunion: 'I Don't Have Anything to Hide'

Rihanna** doesn't "hate" anyone for having an opinion on her reunion with her ex-boyfriend Chris Brown**, but the singer is still going to do what she wants to do.

"I'm still going to do what I want to do," Rihanna told Elle Magazine (via AOL's The Boombox). "It's like, one less skeleton in the closet, one less burden, one less secret; now you know that, so you can say what you want about it. I don't have anything to hide."

"I respect what other people have to say. The bottom line is that everyone thinks differently," she continued in Elle's May Issue, on newsstands April 17. "It's very hard for me to accept, but I get it. People end up wasting their time on the blogs or whatever, ranting away, and that's all right. I don't hate them for it."

Love it or hate it, Rih RIh's "Birthday Cake" remix, featuring Breezy, continues to climb the charts. On March 3, the track debuted at No. 73 on Hot 100 Airplay with 16 million audience impressions and a 372% increase in spins, according to Nielsen BDS. The title also debuted on Hot Digital Songs at No. 62 and No. 71 on R&B/Hip-Hop Songs. The quick start led to a No. 63 debut for "Cake" on the Billboard Hot 100. In its fourth week, "Birthday Cake" moved to top ten of R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and ranks at No. 4, today (April 4).

Rihanna continued to share on how she dealt with the aftermath of her volatile relationship with Brown. "I was going through the hardest time of my life. I was angry, sad, confused, torn. I was still in love. And I needed to talk about it," she said.

She channeled her pain into her music, specifically her fourth studio album, "Rated R" (2009). "That was the only way I could get peace, because it was in my head, and I couldn't leave it there."

"It gave me guns. I was like, 'Well, f*ck.' They know more about me than I want them to know. It's embarrassing. But that was my opening," she said. "That was my liberation, my moment of bring it. I wanted people to know who I am. Whatever they take that to be, good or bad, I just want them to know the truth."

Young Jeezy Concert Cancelled After Gunfire Erupts

A man was shot before a Young Jeezy concert at the Sound Academy in Toronto, Canada at around 12:30 a.m. on Thursday morning (April 5).

According to the Toronto Star, the shooting took place in between the opening acts and before Jeezy, the headliner, could take the stage. The 26-year-old male victim was shot three times in the torso and was left in serious, but stable condition, Toronto Police told the Star. Investigators are still looking for suspects.

The estimated 1,800 fans who crammed into the Sound Academy were evacuated and Jeezy had to cancel his performance.

But the Snowman did take to his Twitter account to promise his faithful Canadian fans that he'll be back in T-dot soon.

"Backstage @ Sound Academy in Toronto!" Jeezy tweeted a few hours after the shooting and shutdown of the venue. "Police closed venue and cancelled the greatest show!!! I will be back! Next stop London, Ontario!"

This marks Jeezy's first full cross Canada tour.

"I played Canada a few times when Lil Wayne and I were on tour and I came out with Drake in Toronto at his festival, but I've never done this many dates," the Snowman recently told the country's National Post newspaper. "I'm excited to bring my energy to the stage.

"Every time I step on the stage, you can't really tell where you are," he added. "Love is love, and by the crowd's reaction I don't know if I'm in Canada, Atlanta or Norway. It all just depends on the night."
