Karrueche Tran Dumps Chris Brown After Finding Out He Has a Child

A bomb hit Twitter and various media outlets late Tuesday night (March 3) when news broke that R&B bad boy Chris Brown was the father of a 9-month-old baby girl, which was a surprise to pretty much everyone, including Brown’s on-and-off girlfriend, Karrueche Tran.


The mother of the alleged love child is 31-year-old Nia, a former model the crooner has known for years and with whom he has remained friends, though they are no longer romantically involved.


The news had to crush Karraueche, 26, not to mention finding out about it through the media like TMZ. After years of turmoil within their relationship, things seemed to be looking up, with Brown admitting his faults as a boyfriend and has stated his plans on being a faithful man and committed to strengthening their bond.


But now that Karrueche has gotten wind of her beau’s secret love child, she seems to be the one backing away from the relationship and has all but dumped Brown for all of social media to see.


“Listen. One can only take so much. The best of luck to Chris and his family. No baby drama for me,” she wrote on Twitter Wednesday morning (March 4).


While it sucks for Chris, 25, to get hit with two whammys in one day, it’s hard to blame Karrueche for throwing in the towel after his continuous mishaps in regards to their romance. This new baby serves as the straw that broke the camel’s back, leading her to fire off the end-all tweet. She’s called it quits with the X creator before, so it’ll be interesting to see how this plays out.

Curren$y Connects With Styles P for 'Alert'


On the underground and independent circuit, Curren$y has long been regarded as one of the reliable artists when it comes to servicing his fans.


With an endless stream of releases and constantly touring, Spitta has become a model of consistency with the gift of being able to remain relevant without oversaturating the market. He is currently making the rounds in promotion of the third installment of his Pilot Talk trilogy, which drops on April 4.


“Never stop ’til we pick up loot on every block.” That’s the motto Curren$y and his Jet Life compatriots live by, which he serves as the opening line on his latest salvo, “Alert.” Produced by Ski Beatz and Styles P, the track is exactly what fans of Curren$y expect with a smoked-out beat, car references and other fly ish.


He gives props to his lady of the moment and her enterprising ways. “We use the Pro Tools to break down boulders / my girl pull her own weight with her sexy lil shoulders / in the strapless Vera Wang, Alexander, or whoever made it / I just know she paid it, it cost me naything,” the New Orleans native raps. The rapper still maintains his G, making it clear that he’s far from a rest haven for gold-digging women.


Styles P, who has quietly been on a tear musically over the last few years, joins Spitta on the track and makes his presence felt immediately, beginning his verse with the quote-worthy opening bar, “Boss playa, I ask for the cost later / Throw it in the cut, like f— it, I’ll floss later / In the mix like a cross-fader / No DJ, giving ‘em no leeway.” The LOX member shines bright with a commendable performance.
