Twitter Has A Little Fun With Young Thug's 'No, My Name Is Jeffery' Album Cover

The rapper's tracklist also includes a song curiously titled, "Harambe."

Just a few hours before the midnight release of his debut album No, My Name Is Jeffery, Young Thug has released the project's album art with many sharing their thoughts and edits on social media.

During his album listening party at the YouTube office in New York Thursday evening (Aug. 25), the bold cover was revealed featuring Jeffery in a ruffled style dress, hiding behind a conical hat. Since the start of his career, Thugger's taste in clothing has been ridiculed and praised by fans. In several magazine and fashion spreads, the rapper has donned luxury women's clothing simply because they're comfier than men's threads. "Women’s clothes are [slimmer] than men’s clothes," Thugger said to GQ last year. "The jeans I got on right now, they’re women’s jeans. But they fit how they’re supposed to fit. Like a rock star. The only thing I probably have in men’s is, like, briefs. T-shirts. Ninety percent of my clothes are women’"

His decision to follow the creative golden road has led to more critique on everyone's favorite platform-- Twitter. Fans and critics mocked and praised the rapper for being Jeffery.

His official tracklist was also released during the livestream, with each track named after his favorite people like Wyclef Jean, Swizz Beats and Harambe, the silverback gorilla that was killed after a child fell into his enclosure at the Cincinnati Zoo.

He also explained the importance of using his real name on the album and what it means to his children.

Diddy Cries While Speaking On Celebrating Mother’s Day Without Kim Porter

With Mother’s Day coming up, Diddy and his children are preparing to endure yet another holiday without their beloved matriarch, Kim Porter. In an emotional audio recording from Diddy’s interview with Essence magazine, the 49-year-old single father breaks down in tears while speaking about Porter.

“This Mother’s Day is gonna hurt,” Diddy told Dream Hampton in the 20-minute recording released Thursday (May 9). “We’re definitely gonna celebrate all the mothers but you know honestly...anybody that’s lost a mother, lost a soulmate, it takes time. They say time heals all wounds [but] when it comes to your mother, or mothers, I don’t think that’s the case. And that's not a negative thing because as people we need wounds...you need something to sting you sometimes, to keep you on point. [To] teach you a lesson.”

Diddy began to get emotional when expressing the pain that he's been experiencing and praising the strength of black mothers. “I don’t know what I’m gonna do. I’m gonna figure something out, though. This hurts so much. I know that people want to hear like, the good stuff...[but] it hurts. It ain’t no way around that.

“When it comes to the category of who’s the strongest beings on the face of the earth, it would have to be black mothers,” the mogul said through tears. “I don’t think anybody could ever understand how hard it is to be a black mother.”

Diddy and Porter had three biological children together, son Christina and twins Jessie and Delilah Combs. The former couple were very much a blended family that included Porter’s son, Quincy Brown, and Diddy’s son and daughter, Justin and Chance Combs.

Despite being broken up, Porter and Diddy remained close friends. In fact, Porter’s last few posts on Instagram was a message wishing Diddy a happy birthday and a photo of him and their children which she captioned “Love.”

The 47-year-old model and actress died last November following a fatal bout with pneumonia. Listen to Diddy's tearful interview below (fast-forward to the 7:40 mark to hear his words).

Car Reported Stolen In Case Of Missing 4-Year-Old Girl Found In Texas Parking Lot

Authorities in Texas have located the car reported stolen by the stepfather of 4-year-old Maleah Davis who has been missing since last week. The gray Nissan Altima was discovered by a taxi driver in the parking lot of a Houston suburb Thursday (May 9).

The car was unlocked with no noticeable damage, according to the Associated Press. Maleah’s stepfather, Darion Vence, claims that she was kidnapped by two men in a pickup truck. However, Houston police say Vence’s story has changed several times and that they are now unable to get in contact with him. He is currently a “person of interest” in the case.

Vence told authorities that he was approached by unidentified men after he pulled over to fix a flat tire while on his way to pick up Maleah’s mother, Brittany Bowens, from the airport last Friday (May 3). He maintained that the men knocked him unconscious and abducted him and the children. He went on to say that the men eventually let him and his son go free but disappeared with Maleah. Vence reported Maleah missing a day later.

Bowens, who was at the scene when the missing vehicle was discovered, was seen on her hands and knees and in tears. “Where is my baby?” she was heard saying.

Last summer, Maleah and her two brothers were placed in the custody of Child Protective Services after Maleah suffered a head injury that led to multiple brain surgeries. The children's relatives were caring for them before they were returned to their parents in February, although CPS continued to monitor the children. Bowens has denied allegations that Maleah was being physically abuses.

The remaining children have since been removed from the custody of Bowens and Vence who are banned from contacting them.

50 Cent Calls Out Jackie Long Over Alleged Loan

50 Cent is back at it again. Fif hopped on Instagram on Thursday (May 9) to call out ATL actor Jackie Long, claiming he owes him money.

It all started when 50 posted a photo of Long on Instagram, looking to collect on Long's alleged debt. "This punk a** n***a @jackielong better give me my money. You on BET now you can have mine by Monday fool," Fif wrote.

Long quickly caught wind of 50's trolling tactics and hit back with a similar post on his Instagram account, except he claimed 50 was the one who owed money. "N***a I gave you $250k you bitch about what n***a?" He wrote in response.

"Jackie interest Jackie you gotta pay me, puff was gonna kill you fool. I saved your life," 50 Cent in a rebuttal post.

It's unclear what loan they are referring to or how much the debt is. Nevertheless, this whole situation seems a lot like 50's other money drama with Teairra Mari. The singer owes 50 more than $100,000 after she lost a revenge porn lawsuit against the rapper.

Check out all the drama below.
