🚨Saudi Arabia has issued a “hostile aerial threat” warning in Riyadh, just days before Canelo Alvarez and Christian Mbilli are scheduled to meet for the WBC super middleweight title in the Saudi capital.
An emergency alert sent to mobile phones in Riyadh reads:
“Warning. City of Riyadh is under a hostile aerial threat. Please remain calm, stay indoors or in a safe place away from windows and doors, and follow the instructions of Civil Defense.”

‘Windrush’ has become a very lazy way to describe the Caribbean community in Britain, is it as dehumanising as calling all Caribbean people Jamaican.
It’s time to be specific about those you are claiming to speak about or honour.

#JasonArday has been cleared of plagiarism for a fourth time. Why is the media silent about it?
As another investigation ends without substantiating plagiarism claims, @richardsudan asks who will hold the British media accountable for its treatment of the pioneering Black academic?👇🏿

Doing shows in Edinburgh this weekend, hilarious how the weather is just a normal weekend up here lol
Anytime I see a skit online, it's like the algorithm just wants to snitch and immediately shows me who made the original lol
We might need to apply Harvard referencing to this shit soon
The fact these man went to get the cheesecake will always be diabolical
Diddy offered the six members of Da Band $7,500 to sign to Bad Boy. Total. Then, on MTV, he sent them walking six hours across New York to bring back his cheesecake.
In the video below, Ness, one of the six, tells it himself and does the math. "Not $75,000. Not $750,000. That's $1,250 a piece."
They had won Making the Band 2. Millions watched Diddy build them on TV. The walk went from Manhattan, over the Brooklyn Bridge, to Junior's and back. "Six hours total," Ness says.
The other five were ready to sign the deal as it was. Ness took it to a lawyer first, and the number went up.
Their album, Too Hot for TV, went gold. Then Diddy broke up the group on the show.
After the breakup came a publishing offer: $300,000, split six ways, only if all six signed. Ness refused to give up his rights. The others stayed angry with him for years.
Then the taxes came. Ness says they were paraded around for "promo" that was really paid work, and the IRS seized his royalties.
"I wasn't getting no royalties for 20 years," he says. "I've been in financial ruins for the whole 19 years."
Six kids walked six hours for a cheesecake. One of them spent the next 19 years paying for the contract.
Was Ness robbed, or did six kids from a reality show sign what they were handed?
Another one tomorrow.
