Azealia Banks: I'm working on temper
Azealia Banks has revealed she is working on her 'really hot temper'.
The 23-year-old Yung Rapunxel rapper has been embroiled in a number of high-profile Twitter feuds with the likes of Iggy Azalea and Erykah Badu in recent months.
And Azealia admits she has a tendency to pop off easily when something upsets her.
"Of course I've definitely got a really hot head, I definitely have a like a really high temper...which I'm working on,' she noted in an interview with the UK's Channel 4 News.
Azealia is currently promoting her debut studio album Broke with Expensive Taste.
But she would entertain the idea of running for office one day, in the wake of recent racial tension in the United States involving the killing of African-American men Eric Garner and Michael Brown, who were slain at the hands of police officers.
Should 'some new black political party' enter the scene, Azealia would be interested in getting involved.
'For me music is just how I escape from just you know how messed up everything. Music is just how I let my soul breathe. It's discouraging to see young black men getting shot down in the street just for being black outside, it makes you angry and it makes you angry because you feel powerless and you feel helpless,' she explained.
'I just feel like for centuries and centuries and centuries black people have been painted to be these animals and just be these crazy people when we are really not and I feel like all of the things like hip hop - these are the things we have created for ourselves in the face of all of the adversity. We've created these things for ourselves and they are ours. And they make us feel good and we don't want you in the same way you don't want us in I don't want you in here."
Ludacris 'expecting third child'
Ludacris and his wife Eudoxie Mbouguiengue are expecting their first child together.
The 37-year-old rapper-and-actor married Eudoxie over the holidays after he popped the question to her just after Christmas.
And now it seems the couple have something else to celebrate, as Ludacris' love is pregnant.
On Sunday Eudoxie posted an Instagram picture of Ludacris kissing her protruding baby belly near the ocean, captioning the image: 'Beautiful day on the beach'.
Late on the same day, Eudoxie took to the picture-sharing website again to gush over how much she is enjoying her expectancy.
'#theperksofpregnancy #everythinggrows #pleaseboobsstayafterbaby lol,' she wrote in a caption attached to a picture of her lounging in a gorgeous, multi-coloured maxi dress.
Eudoxi and Ludacris have been dating since 2009.
Ludacris already has two daughters from previous relationships, one of which was born in 2013.
And the star previously spoke about how important fatherhood is to him.
'As a strong black father, I just want to be there for my kids,' he told Rolling Out magazine. 'It's definitely about taking care of your responsibilities financially, but it's also about spending time. Because you have a lot of people that just cut a check, but spending time is just as important as taking care of your responsibilities. I don't think anyone is a perfect parent, but we do our best and we continue to learn. We think we're teaching our children - we're actually learning at the same time.
