Image
Jaden Smith may only be 19 years-old and a rookie in the rap game, but he’s already been able to party and hang with some of the biggest names in the genre. Most notably, Kanye West and Drake are just two of the hip-hop heavyweights who’ve welcomed Jaden into their circle. But apparently, those days of chopping it up with the boys are long gone. In a new interview with Complex, Smith confessed that he no longer chills with Kanye or Drake. While Jaden admitted that he used to be extremely cool with Drizzy, Ye, and even Donald Glover, he explained everything changed the moment he started making waves with his music. “[My relationship with Drake, Kanye, and Donald Glover has] really changed,” he explained. “I always felt like Little Homie before and that allowed me in all of their circles.

     Khanyi Mbau. Picture Credit: Instagram "People tend to get attached and stuck to whatever image they have and forget that in life everything always has a new model," says Khanyi Mbau. "The house you live in, two years later there will be a new design, the same with the car you drive and cellphone you use. That is the same theory you should apply to your brand." The queen of reinvention takes some time to chat to me after a full day of errands and just before she starts reading her scripts for the week. It's a juggling act she's playing lately, far from the "famous for being famous" tag of old. Mbau established herself in the industry as the Queen of Bling and the Lamborghini-driving party girl. Today she is a far cry from that and is gaining critical acclaim for her stellar performance in Mzansi Magic's new Sunday drama series Abomama. "I am overwhelmed and speechless. I mean, it is still sinking in, I am trying to come t...
