After getting at the Migos for saying they're the biggest group to ever exist, Layzie Bone has been debating with Offset on the subject. Offset claimed that Layzie Bone can't compare to his level of wealth, which led to the Bone Thugs rapper showing off his home and platinum plaques.  Now, Layzie Bone has dropped a diss track on Christmas Day aimed at Migos called "Let Me Go Migo." The artwork featured the Migos in one stocking labeled "garbage" and 21 Savage, who recently weighed in on the debate, in another stocking labeled "trash." Here it here

Verizon, the nation's largest wireless carrier, announced today that 10,400 employees will voluntarily leave the company. These employees have agreed to leave their jobs at Verizon in return for up to 60 weeks' salary, bonus and benefits, depending on the employee's length of service at the carrier. The actual last day at Verizon for those who decided to accept the package will depend on when the company will no longer need them. Some will leave at the end of the year, others will depart at the end of March 2019 or June 2019. The company has decided to realign the organization as a way to maximize the growth potential it has in 5G services.  Verizon will launch a 5G Samsung smartphone sometime in the first half of 2019 , which could be the  Samsung Galaxy S10 . The company is looking to cut costs by $10 billion over the next four years and 44,000 employees were offered the retirement package. At the end of the this year's third quarter, 152,300 employees worked ...

On Thursday we learned  Lyft filed papers for an initial public offering  set to take place in 2019, and Friday evening some "people familiar with its plans" said the same to the  Wall Street Journal  about ride-hailing rival Uber. According to the  New York Times , Uber also filed its paperwork with the SEC on Thursday, setting the stage for both companies to compete over who can get their shares on the market first. Ever  since replacing Travis Kalanick  last year, getting the company through its IPO has been a major consideration for CEO Dara Khosrowshahi, and this news means it could happen sooner than previously-anticipated, moving it from mid- or late 2019 to the first quarter of the year. These transportation apps have seen some of the biggest growth lately, but they're not the only tech companies preparing to go public, with others like Slack and Airbnb potentially in line. The companies have similar incentives with employees and in...

Google's semi-defunct social media platform Google+ has  suffered its second data breach in three months  and, as a result, will be completely shuttered in April, four months earlier than previously planned. In October, Google revealed that it had found a major security bug potentially impacting around a half million Google+ users. The company at that point made the decision to shut down the service the following August. Last month, Google once again spotted a security issue, on that could potentially serve up the personal information of some 52.5 million users -- including names, email address, occupation, gender, birthday, relationship status and age, whether they were set to public or not -- to developers using the Google+ API. This was the final straw for the company, which has announced that the service will shut down four months early and its API will cease functioning within 90 days. While the API bug did potentially impact tens of millions of users...

According to reports, Altria— the parent company of Phillip Morris who makes Marlboro cigarettes, has invested a massive amount of money into medical and recreational marijuana. Altria reportedly invested $2.4 billion into Canadian medical and recreational marijuana company Cronos Group. As a result, Altria now has a 45 percent stake in the company. Another round of $1.4 billion is reportedly up in the air, which could bring Altria’s stake to 55 percent. Cronos Group CEO Mike Gorenstein commented on the news, saying “ We just got a new partner and now resources — but beyond that, the network and support [Altria] can offer — being able to have that experience. It’s an alignment and a partnership but it’s not like the deal is over. We’re all very, very excited about the beginning, and we can now go and do the things we want to do .” source:  Market Watch

Nicki Minaj's new beau has certainly gotten a lot of press coverage over the last 12 hours. Kenny Petty, 40, has most notably been scrutinized for his criminal past which includes being  convicted of rape  as a teenager and now reports confirm Petty has spent time in prison for killing a man as well. According to The Blast, Petty pled guilty to first-degree manslaughter in the 2002 shooting death of Lamont Robinson. Petty reportedly shot Robinson “with a loaded handgun (sic) multiple times thereby causing his death.” Initially charged with second-degree murder, Petty agreed to a deal that bumped his charge down to manslaughter.  After pleading guilty to the manslaughter charge in 2006, Petty served seven years of a 10-year sentence. Petty was released from prison back in May of 2013 and was on supervised release until May of this year. Source:  theblast.com

J.R. Smith and the  Cavaliers have all but  officially  parted ways  as the veteran waits until he is either traded or released. According to longtime NBA insider Marc Stein, J.R. could be getting picked up by the Houston Rockets. On Monday night, Stein tweeted, "The Rockets have expressed exploratory interest in acquiring JR Smith, according to league sources. Smith is currently on hiatus from the Cavaliers as Cleveland seeks a new home for the veteran shooting guard via trade."  News of Houston's interest in Smith comes just a day after rumors of the Lakers eyeing a trade for Trevor Ariza, a player Houston was hopeful to reacquire. Smith isn't quite the defender Ariza was but could add defensive toughness on the perimeter that the Rockets desperately need. Moreover, J.R. can knock down open 3's consistent enough to fit Mike D'Antoni's offensive scheme.  Source:  twitter.com

Steph Curry is tapping into his inner- Kyrie Irving-sci-fi conspiratorial side  after questioning whether the moon landing ever happened. Curry was the special guest on the Vince Carter and Kent Bazemore podcast, "Winging It," when Steph floated the question of the moon landing to the room.  "Curry: 'We ever been to the moon?' "Multiple responders: 'Nope.' "Curry: 'They're gonna come get us. I don't think so, either.'" Curry and the others in the room who don't believe the moon landing ever happened ironically made these comments just a week after NASA announced their successful trip putting the InSight Lander on Mars. This trip was approximately 30 million miles away from Earth while the Moon is only 238,900 miles away. Source:  bleacherreport.com

9 8Marvel's first Avengers 4 trailer is on the way, but what time will it reportedly release online? Ever since Anthony and Joe Russo's Avengers: Infinity War hit theaters earlier this year, all Marvel Cinematic Universe fans could think about was when they would get the first look or tease at the Russo Brothers' 2019 Marvel movie, Avengers 4. For a long time, though, Marvel Studios focused all their efforts on first releasing Peyton Reed's Ant-Man and the Wasp in the summer and then marketing Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck's Captain Marvel. Even though Avengers 4 releases in about five months, MCU fans have yet to see the Avengers 4 trailer, despite the fact that they've now gotten two Captain Marveltrailers as well as trailers for four other Disney movies (such as The Lion King) that are releasing after Avengers 4. While this may be frustrating for MCU fans who are excited to learn more about next year's ...

yft is smaller than Uber, but it might just one-up its rival on the stock market and provide some fiercer competition.  Wall Street Journal  sources have  learned  that Lyft has filed documents with the SEC for its expected initial public stock offering, and hopes to sell shares in March or April. While Uber has long  talked about an IPO , it has been targeting a debut in the second half of 2019. There could be a few months where Lyft is your  only  major choice if you want to invest in an American ridesharing company. There's a strong incentive to move quickly, too. The market has been tumultuous in recent months, and Lyft will want to launch its IPO while investors are in a spending mood. Another decline could make it significantly harder to raise cash, and might even prompt the company to delay or scrap its IPO until there are more favorable conditions. The planned IPO might not seem too important if you have no investment plans...

Say what you want about Soulja Boy, but nobody could ever claim that he doesn't market himself well. In fact, most people would say the Atlanta rapper's best quality is his business acumen, having collaborated on a number of different ventures over the years that has  taken his brand beyond music. Now Soulja Boy Tell 'Em has pulled off the unexpected, attaching his name to his very own video game console that is already available for purchase. Officially named the SouljaGame console, the hard drive will hold over 800 built-in games that appear to be emulated titles. The console comes with all the necessary cables as well as adaptors for older televisions, in addition to a pair of controllers that resemble Sony Playstation's Dual Shock 4. Furthermore, the portable SouljaGame Handheld has also been released with over 3,000 built-in games, that similar to the Nintendo Switch will also be compatible with a television.  Although the legalities of emulated consoles ...

The date was July 23, 1993, when James Jordan, the father of iconic basketball player Michael Jordan, was murdered in cold blood while he slept in his car. Two men were soon arrested for his murder and the subsequent theft of his vehicle, yet despite overwhelming evidence that tied both Daniel Green and Larry Demery to the crime, both men have long maintained their innocence.  Now over 25 years after their sentencing, a North Carolina judge is set to hear new arguments in the case on behalf of the suspected gunman. In a prior interview from prison, Green conceded that he did help his friend Demery dispose of the body, but maintained that he wasn't the man who actually pulled the trigger. If the judge is convinced by the new arguments, a new trial could be set for Green. Source: chicagotribune.com

Cuban Doll's former friend, who goes by @summerbunni on Instagram, apologized to Cardi B for being involved in a cheating scandal with Offset. The rumors quickly spread online after @mmmforeign, a friend of Asian Doll, who is beefing with Cuban Doll, dropped receipts of Offset allegedly setting up a threesome with Cuban Doll and Summer.

When it comes to next-generation networks, Apple is always one of the last to embrace them. Despite its availability, the company chose not to support 3G networks until the second-generation iPhone. Similarly, Apple didn’t adopt 4G LTE networks until 2012’s iPhone 5 – a full two years after the first 4G-ready smartphones hit the market. Now, with 5G networks just around the corner, a report by  Bloomberg  suggests a similar scenario could once again occur. Due to the higher quality of second-gen modems and the lack of coverage that usually comes with the initial network deployment, the first iPhones with 5G support aren’t expected to arrive until at least 2020.  Apple  believes that the lack of quality coverage could make consumers considerably less compelled to make the switch, something that in turn could hurt iPhone sales significantly. Alongside this, it’s claimed that Apple’s ongoing  legal battle with Qualcomm  has played a part in the decision...

The other day,  Microsoft had a brief run as the most valuable publicly traded company in the states , ending Apple's long reign on top. This happened because Apple's shares have declined 20% as talk grew about cuts in 2018 iPhone production. Earlier today,  a new front runner briefly emerged when Amazon  surged to the top of the leaderboard. At that point, Amazon was valued at $865 billion versus the $864.8 market capitalization belonging to Apple. As we write this, Apple has returned to its position as most valuable, with Amazon second and Microsoft third. Earlier this year, before the tech correction started, both Apple and Amazon each reached a valuation of one trillion dollars.  Apple hit the target on August 2nd and peaked at $1.10 trillion . A little more than a month later,  it was Amazon that joined the trillion dollar club . Apple had first surpassed Microsoft in valuation back in 2010 when PC shipments struggled due to the explosion in sma...

If you're a Metro by T-Mobile subscriber, you just might want to think twice before changing the handset that you use with your pre-paid account.  According to posts on Reddit  from Metro customers, the T-Mobile subsidiary is now charging customers $15 to swap or change the  phone  they use with their account. Subscribers who have been with the company say that this rule has always been around, but a call to customer service could get the $15 waived. Apparently, that is no longer an option. The $15 fee is unusual since it covers phones that are already owned by the subscriber. The response online has not been a positive one with many Metro by T-Mobile customers unhappy about this, and threatening to go elsewhere. The hardened stance on this $15 fee reportedly started on November 18th. According to one Reddit member, the fee was added by Metro because reps don't get paid for a sale when customers swap out their phone as soon as they leave a Metro store. Th...

Fresh off their removal from Apple's iOS App Store after a child pornography scandal, Tumblr has announced that starting December 17th all explicit content will be banned from the site. The social networking service says that their reasoning goes beyond the isolated incident, and by the use of algorithms all adult content will be flagged, deleted, or hidden from view.   Exceptions to the policy include erotic literature, classical statues, and political protests that contain nudity, while users will have the chance to appeal any outcomes if they believe Tumblr has removed their posts in error. Furthermore, archived content on the site will also be erased or left heavily censored. Source:  theverge.com

Kobe Bryant has made a seamless transition from his playing days in the NBA to off the court with his entrepreneurial ventures and creative projects. A constant throughout Bryant's transition, however, has been his ability to successfully shift his vaunted "Mamba Mentality" to other things outside of the competitive sports world. His latest endeavor will be to impart that mentality onto the next generation of athletes as Kobe will be opening the Mamba Sports Academy for young athletes.  The multisport training facility will be housed in a 100,000 square foot space in Thousand Oaks, CA and will include "five basketball courts, five volleyball courts, two beach volleyball courts, a turf field, an esports training ground, batting cages, pitching mounds and a Gracie Barra jiu jitsu school."  Kobe said the academy "has perfected the art and science of athletic training, from elite players to young kids getting started," adding, "MAMBA Sports Ac...

Four Maryland high schoolers are in deep legal trouble after they were indicted on rape charges stemming from a hazing incident gone awry. The four suspects of Damascus High School, Jean Claude Abedi, Kristian Lee, Will Smith, and Caleb Thorpe, were arrested over the Thanksgiving holiday for attacking some of their JV teammates. During the attack, one of the 14-year-old JV players was held down before one of the boys shoved a broomstick into his anal cavity.  State Attorney for Montgomery County John McCarthy warned against calling this a hazing incident, however. He told reporters, "I would caution anyone to refer to this as hazing, [...] These boys were victims of criminal acts. They were not victims of hazing. They were victims of first-degree rapes and attempted rapes. These were crimes." Take a look at the video above.  Source:  youtube.com
