French Montana and Khloe Kardashian's Relationship Scrutinized by Kardashian Clan
The saga between French Montana and Khloe Kardashian continues. The lovebirds seem to be experiencing a bit of a rough patch and the Kardashian clan is weighing in.
Khloe’s family is apparently warning the reality TV star about French’s cheating ways, according to TMZ. It seems like Kim Kardashian was used as a ruse as the rapper stepped out to hang with other women while on a recent tour stop in Dubai.
Although Kim was in the Middle East doing promo for the launch of her Fleur Fatale fragrance at Parfum Monde, she made time to ride the sand dunes and hang out with her sister’s boyfriend. She and French both posted photos of their quality time to their respective Instagram accounts — dinner and partying were all included. Khloe, however, was nowhere in sight.
Since Khloe’s televised split from husband Lamar Odom on ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians,’ her family has reportedly been weary of her relationship choices. They’ve been trying their best to guard her heart. Meanwhile, Khloe maintains she is having fun in an open relationship with French and wants the Kardashian clan to back off.
What do you think of French and Khloe’s relationship? Sound off in the comments below.

Nike LeBron 12 NSW Lifestyle 'Lion's Mane'
Word to Dej Loaf, it’s officially time to break out that fur and LeBron James is effectively doing so with his latest lifestyle look. The upcoming “Lion’s Mane” colorway on the Nike LeBron 12 NSW Lifestyle takes the basketball player’s love for the king of the jungle a step further.
The feel of a lion’s mane is conveyed by the use of camel pony hair along the upper while a brown suede toebox peeks out from in between the panels. A rear pull-tab embroidered with a lion logo and the phrase “Leader of the Pride” are featured, falling right below the cuff of your denim, while golden eyelets shine in front.
Fur isn’t for everyone, but if you think you can pull these off, they’re set to release on Dec. 6 for $130. Concepts actually has them in stock right now if you want to get the jump on everyone else.

Nicki Minaj Lands on GQ's 'Year in Hotness' List
GQ magazine has released their “Year in Hotness” list and it pretty much reveals what we already know by now: Nicki Minaj is hot. The Queen Barbz is among a bevy of female entertainers being honored for their fiery personalities and adored assets.
Minaj is given props for being a true poet laureate with her explicit lyrics for ‘Anaconda.’ We must also mention that her bootylicious video for ‘Anaconda,’ was, undoubtedly, one of the hottest videos of the year.
Oddly enough, the BeyHive, Beyonce’s loyal fan base, appears on the list as “Fans of the Year.” We can’t argue with that. Queen Bey’s dedicated followers will rain down on your Twitter timeline with slander if you throw shade at Beyonce or her precious baby girl Blue Ivy. Just ask Karrueche Tran and TLC’s Chilli how it feels to be stung by the BeyHive.
Other celebs who made the list include John Legend’s wife Chrissy Teigen and fashion model Jourdan Dunn.

adidas Originals Tubular 'New Year's' Pack
Even if you’re too young to know that the phrase “totally tubular” is ’80′s slang for “cool,” you can still see that the adidas Originals Tubular is a pretty cool sneaker. Well, the trefoil’s latest design helps usher in 2015 as a part of the New Year’s Pack.
The two-shoe drop is comprised of colorways that feel celebratory based on their subtle use of metallic leathers. Gold finds its way to the black and white pair and an unlikely metallic olive lands on a greyish blue model, which makes for a set of sneakers that are similar but markedly different.
Both pairs hit retailers today and spots like Uptown Sneaker Boutique can get you right if you’re trying to track either of them down.

Solange turned her Instagram page into a colorful photo capsule of Trancoso of Bahia in Brazil with snapshots of the palm tree-filled land and their honeymoon villa.
“Thank you Trancoso for being the most magical lil place to “honey our moon”….Brazil could not have been kinder to us and our love…..,” she wrote in the caption.
Other photos show Solo posing in a swimsuit on a dirt road, her husband looking pensive inside a shack, views of the ocean and the decor of some of the villas. The 28-year-old singer also thanked the workers at the UXUA Casa Hotel & Spa in Trancoso for helping make their honeymoon such a memorable getaway.
“8 days of photos. Brazil. Endless opportunity to capture vibes. But enough eh,” she wrote in the final photo caption.

Stars We Lost in 2014
2014 has been a great year complete with good music, innovative artists and wild surprises. However, it’s also the same year in which we lost a number of lauded musical creators and respected public figures. These stars not only made a name for themselves in their respective careers but also impacted the worlds of hip-hop and R&B in many ways.
From an award-winning poet who always reminded us to rise up against adversity to a drummer who created iconic beats sampled by more than a few MCs, these creatives helped shape how we view (and listen to) what’s happening in society.
As we inch closer to the end of the year and embark on 2015, The Boombox takes a look back at a few special people who made an impression on the lives of your favorite rappers and singers. Check out Stars We Lost in 2014.
