It’s the series of the moment; HBO Game of Thrones returned from hiatus last week, and people had missed it so much they couldn’t wait to watch it- leading to the leak of the first four episodes.

Empire
Empire

Every once in a while a television show comes around that takes over the airwaves and becomes a permanent fixture of the US cultural zeitgeist. Within the past few years ‘Breaking Bad’, ‘Game of Thrones’, ‘Girls’, and ‘True Detective’ have occupied this space at one time or the other.

This year’s tv darling, ‘Empire’ has become all that anyone can talk about. The Fox show has attracted tremendous ratings and is set for a highly anticipated second season. If one man is to be believed though, the whole thing is one big rip-off.

Ron Newt is that man, whom TMZ describes as a friend of the Jackson family. He’s suing Terrence Howard, Lee Howard, ‘Empire’ and others, claiming the hit show is a carbon copy of his film about his life as a “gangster, pimp, and drug dealer”.

This is after an earlier pic of her and new boo Meek Mill had gotten fans talking, after they noticed she had a ring on her ring finger.

P-Square

Rumours of P-Square going to be break-up is nothing new, they keep coming and going—but this time, it is backed by disrespectful action from one of the halves-Paul Okoye.

Paul Okoye took to social media in a series of posting to list the various works of P-Square (mostly hit songs) that he masterminded alone—claiming all the glory and making it seem like, without him, P-Sqaure would not have been this successful.

Whatever it is, taking to social media to list things and claim glory for them all as though the other person is pretty useless when it comes to the success of P-Square is not only childish but also disrespectful.
