Snoop Dogg’s Merry Jane + Jack In The Box Team Up For New “Merry Munchie Meal” Box

California has without a doubt turned itself into the marijuana capital of the US; with the legalization of marijuana to use for medicinal purposes spreading throughout the nation, California was well on the way towards spearheading an effort to make kush recreational.

Come Monday, marijuana will be available for purchase for recreational use. Whom better to capitalize on this fact than Snoop Doggy Dog himself? Blazing a trail like the veteran he is, Snoop has partnered his Merry Jane website with Jack In The Box fast food for a match in heaven.

Pioneering a new “Merry Munchie Meal,” this limited time box meal comes packed to the brim with enough munchies to sate even Snoop Dogg himself. Find two tacos, five mini churros, THREE chicken strips, a drink and a box of half curly fries/ half onions rings for only $4.20.

All in Cali get on this because the Merry Munchie Meal will only be around for a limited run; each box will be co-branded with Snoop Dogg’s Merry Jane website’s marijuana leaf logo making it a collector’s piece for a special kind of mind. This limited run is only available in 3 select locations- hit up Long Beach CA (Snoop’s hometown), for the MMM starting January 18th through the 25th. As their relationship buds, if this joint venture between Jack In The Box and Snoop Dogg goes well, there’s a very real chance we could see further related promotions in the future.

Jack In The Box has taken note of their clientele, often making direct note of their stoner market in multiple adverts before, most specifically in their “Two Tacos for 99 cents” deal.

Jay Z’s 4:44 Tour Rakes In 45M Despite Poor Ticket Sales Rumors

Some critics were on the fence when 4:44 made its debut, others confirmed from the offset that it was fire- gaining several Grammy nominations including Album of the year, the 4:44 tour had originally been plagued by rumors of poor ticket sales. Strange, as the project has by far more support than haters.

Even with some cancellations, Live Nation revealed ticket sales were still through the roof on Jay Z’s 32-City run of shows, netting him a cool 45M- $44,698,354 to be exact. First reported by Complex, the figures reported come from a whopping 426,441 tickets sold- that works out to roughly $1,396,823 per show.

Safe to say, even with stage expenses Hov is still netting an impressive profit. While on tour Jay Z addressed the rumors that ticket sales were poor, straight up putting them into the ground while simultaneously thanking the packed stadium- his claims weren’t just bravado, to date 4:44 looks to be Jay Z’s highest grossing solo tour.

These numbers are in spite of the fact that Jay Z failed to sell out every venue, and some tickets ended up going for less than $50- it seems that Live Nation made a smart move in signing Jay Z to a multi-year $200M contract, the veteran rapper has already made up nearly a quarter of the costs in less than a year.

Whether you think the numbers are rigged or not, one thing that can’t be denied is the incredible performances the veteran rapper put on at each stop- after more than 20 years, the man’s barely missed a step.

Future And Taylor Swift Team Up In Miami For “End Game” Video

TSwift is a veteran of breaking it down, her dance moves have been the stuff of legend making her famous or infamous depending on your view- when footage surfaced of her dancing on a rooftop for her new Future collaboration “End Game,” a few brows were raised but not for why you think.

As TMZ points out, it seems Taylor Swift is down to emphasizing the size of her bust wearing not one, but two pushup bras.

Why this sparks interest is in the past, Swift has gone above and beyond the call of duty in terms of theme for her songs and personifying the role she portrays in her music. This minor note could be a key hint as to determining the facets of her upcoming visuals.

The visuals for the music video were filmed on a yacht in Miami- Ed Sheeran who’s also featured on the song from her upcoming album titled “Reputation” was nowhere to be seen. For the time, we’ll just have to be sated with the whole act captured below, wondering where it’ll actually be used or seen.

At the beginning of the month, Taylor Swift’s 15 track album took up two weeks on the Billboard Top 200 Charts, a feat that only Kendrick Lamar’s DAMN has accomplished in recent times.

Kyle O’Quinn Explains How He Became The “Bar Mitzvah Man”

Kyle O’Quinn has made a name for himself over the years but it may not be how you think; over the years he’s earned a reputation both on and off the bench for bringing energy and all the little things that keeps a team moving. The kind of intangibles that don’t show up on the scoreboard or the stats sheet.

Strangely enough, O’Quinn has developed a solid name for being the go-to Bar Mitzvah entertainer off the court in NYC.

Ian Begley of ESPN posted a piece about how O’Quinn obtained the moniker- while not on the court, apparently he spends much of his time at partying on Saturdays at Bar Mitzvah’s, often times spending a little too much time simply because it’s “so much fun.”

Per ESPN:

“The parties are crazy,” he said. “I did one, did two, and the next thing you know, I was just Bar Mitzvah Man.”

“A lot of times, I go and I stay longer than I’m supposed to because it’s so much fun,” O’Quinn said. “The food’s always good. The only thing that gets a little overwhelming is the kids; sometimes they don’t listen to the structure of the party and it just gets loose.

“And the [parents] kind of leave it like, ‘Kyle, you deal with it.’ And it’s kids saying, ‘Selfie, selfie, selfie, snapchat, what’s your snapchat?’ But once you get that out of the way, it’s fun.”

While growing up Kyle didn’t have any Jewish friends, but it seems the lifestyle kind of fell upon him after attending the Bar Mitzvah of the daughter of his agent, Andy miller. Hitting up the community has become a tradition now for O’Quinn, attending multiple Bar Mitzvah’s and Bat Mitzvah’s through his agency.

They see how much I enjoy it and they let me rock out,” he said. “The parents are partying with the kids and it’s a big festival. They’re letting loose, having a good time and the kids are having a good time.”

Honestly, it’s really nice to be a part of their culture and be down with them.

While it may seem like a case of two cultures colliding, the contributions O’Quinn is giving to many young lives will likely be remembered as a highlight throughout their lives, and that’s a gift that one can’t put a price upon.

Floyd Mayweather Isn’t Backing Down From His “All Lives Matter” Comments

Floyd Mayweather backs down for no man, and it would appear he’s not backing down from his “All lives matter” statement he made during an interview with Tha Boxing Voice.

Floyd actually surprised many of his fans with his approach to the Black Lives Matter and Blue Lives Matter movement;

I’m here to say all lives matter. You know, a lot of times, we get stuck, and we are followers. When you hear one person say ‘Black lives matter,’ or ‘Blue lives matter,’ all lives matter.

It’s rare to ever find T.I. too far from controversy, and the veteran rapper piped up with a pointed rant, one voice among many others who voiced concerns.

During a vacation through Thailand Floyd doubled down on his “All Lives Matter” comment after a fan approached him on it- it seemed though Mayweather was genuinely confused as to why peeps were making a deal out of it, and summarized his thoughts as follows.

I got a lot of scrutiny when everybody was like, ‘Oh yeah, Floyd said all lives matter.’ I don’t give a fuck what nobody say. I live my life the way I fucking want to live my life. I say what the fuck I want to say. I ain’t no fucking follower. And I’ll say it again: All lives matter. At the end of the day, right here, this is one of my best friends. This is one of my best friends right here. So at the end of the day, he’s Filipino. At the end of the day, I look at him like a brother. So his life matter to me, just like everybody on here. Y’all life matter to me, too. It’s all love. Everybody life matter. Everybody mean something. 

A lot of times we say, ‘Black lives matter, black lives matter,’ but at the end of the day, in the hood, blacks is shooting blacks. I’m saying—nobody should be killing nobody. I just want peace. Me myself, I want peace. I think everybody should have peace. All around the world, we should have peace.

My thing is this: There’s good cops out there, just like there’s bad cops out there. At the end of the day, it’s all about following rules and regulations. That’s on both ends—for people in this world and for the cops. I know the cops got a job to do, but the cops’ job ain’t to be shooting motherfuckers, either. But also, when the cops tell a motherfucker to get out the car, just follow rules and regulations. All you got to do is follow rules. Don’t question a motherfucker. When they pull me over, when they ask for my registration, my license, my insurance, I just hand them this. [busts out a Mayweather-worthy money wad] I’m fucking with y’all. I’m popping shit.

Report: Daughter Blue Ivy Is Whom Saved Jay Z And Beyonce’s Marriage

Between Beyonce’s mega-success Lemonade album and Jay Z’s 4:44, it’s no secret that hip hop’s hottest power couple have had some marital strife- especially in concerns to Mr. Carter’s infidelity during their marriage. While these struggles would have broken other couples, People Magazine is reporting that the two are growing stronger, and moving forward together- thanks much in part to their daughter Blue Ivy.

A contact close to the situation reported that while the scandalous rumors that forever changed the couple’s world, the two icons still love eachother. The Road to Recovery took tremendous work and effort from both Bey and Jay;

It took Beyoncé a long time to trust again. She was struggling to move on and forgive. But keeping her family together was very important.

If it’s wasn’t for Blue Ivy, they might not be together,” the contact added. “It took them years to get to the point where they are now.

With the birth of twins Sir and Rumi, it’s clear that the two are healing and making their family a much greater part of their lives, in this case by growing their existing one. Jay however may be in the mood to making amends on a grander scale; in recent concerts and interviews, Mr. Carter has extended the proverbial olive branch to Kanye West, giving hopes that the two will soon reunite for more music. There’s still “genuine love” between the rappers, and time will tell if we’ll see them on stage again.
