Before They Were Famous

Before baby Adonis would wow the world with Drakes's first photos with his son clocking in over 6.3 Million views and receiving worldwide media attention. Before baby Adonis would get a shoutout in Drake's song Emotionless where he rapped “I wasn't hiding my kid from the world, I was hiding the world from my kid” Before baby Adonis would get the MEME treatment. The name Adonis comes from Greek mythology of a good-looking man with whom Aphrodite fell in love. The name is for the Greek god of love and desire and we know from out Before They Were Famous on Sophie that she's part Greek. Regardless of how the little man gets his name, I think we can all agree that this is one good-looking kid! Last week was only the second time the couple has ever been pictured together and a first for Drake with his child. People are already predicting with little Adonis is gonna grow up look like, some are saying Justin Timberlake in his N Sync days. Others Napoleon Dynamite and some are putting their bets on him becoming the next Chet Hanks. Tom Hanks rapper son that no one even knew about until 2020.

Kodak Black may be behind bars but he's still ruffling feathers in the free world. After starting beef with NBA Youngboy insinuating he is a snitch, the Project Baby is continuing to taunt the Baton Rouge, La. rhymer. On Sunday (April 5), Kodak made a new post on Instagram where he accuses NBA YoungBoy of being his clone and biting his style. I don't know who gave him access to his phone but he posted a series of photos, Kodak gives examples of the NBA doing something similar to him, whether it be rapping, dancing, or holding up the same hand sign. Kodak seems to have plenty of access to trending news stories because the snitching claim was made after there was an altercation at his home resulting in serious injury of his baby mama Lapattra Lashai Jacobs at the hands of Floyd Mayweather's daughter Lyanna. Apparently, Youngboy gave full cooperation to the authorities. The two women began a verbal altercation involving hair pulling, which turned physical when Mayweather allegedly retrieved two knives from the kitchen and stabbed Jacobs twice. So now we know why they are beefing but between these two artists who is the true victor? They are the top 2 of the best rappers in the game. They are the most listened to rappers in the streets and NBA was the most listened to artist on YouTube for the past few months. The dude had streaming numbers literally exceeding everyone else, which might make him the victor right there but Kodak can't keep up from prison so in this video we are gonna decide.

Before Joe Exotic would become immortalized as a meme, a costume, a face filter, and would have his face printed on t-shirts. Before Joe Exotic would be arrested and convicted of two counts of murder-for-hire, eight violations of the Lacey Act, and nine of the Endangered Species Act and would be sentenced to 22 years in federal prison. Joe Exotic has become such a big deal people are already placing bets for who should play him in his own Hollywood movie. Popular picks include Danny McBride, David Spade, Billy Bob Thornton, and both Dax Shepard and Edward Norton have already thrown their hats in the ring. If you were to ask me, I think Michael Keaton would be perfect. Since our last video on Joe Exotic the fandom, intrigue, and memes have only gotten more and more outta control so we decided to dig a whole bunch deeper to found out more. I got some juicy info about what he was like in high school, his ex-girlfriend Kim and a ton of footage that was just too wild to be featured in the Netflix docu-series.

Before Sophie would cause a media frenzy when she posted photos of her pregnancy, baby shower, and time spent with little Adonis before Drake spoke out on the topic. Just yesterday the world got its first look at baby Adonis with a series of Instagram posts made by daddy Drake at 5 am in the morning. All along the child was reported to have blue eyes and blonde hair which of course led to his initial questions in regards to if the child was his or not. Well, a year and a half later Drake has been adjusting well into his role as a young father, and his baby mama Sophie has upgraded her lifestyle from working girl to flying first class. It's been quite the leap cause back in the day she was trying to make it as a reality tv star. More details in the video...

After John Finally would marry Joe Exotic and his new boyfriend, Travis, in a three-way ceremony despite the fact that he identified as a straight man. After John Finlay would appear in the Netflix Documentary Tiger King.
After John Finlay would become immortalized as a meme.
Tiger King is the best docu-series since Pumping Iron. It has everything, Tigers, Lions, a Gay Redneck Throuple, a 1 armed lesbian, alligator arson, mullets, pizza made from expired Walmart meat, a zoo-based cult, a crazy cat lady, and country songs about tigers and gay love. I mean what else could you ask for? Today John Finlay looks like an entirely different person with a full set of dentures but he told the press that the producers of Tiger King had updated photos of him with his new teeth but they chose not to use them. He's also been off drugs for 6 years now and is happily married to a woman and is a father to a young girl. I found out a ton of stuff you won't find in the series so here we go.

Before Carole Baskin would become a focal point of the new Netflix documentary series “Tiger King”. Before Carole Baskin would be accused of murdering her husband, disposing of his remains with a meat grinder, and feeding him to the large jungle cats that populate her Big Cat Rescue facility. Before Kate McKinnon would sign on to portray her in a scripted version of her life and decade-long feud with Joe Exotic. Up until about two weeks ago, the only people who knew the name Carole Baskin were those heavily invested in the Exotic Cat community or the 75K people subscribed to Joe Exotic's YouTube channel where he would obsessively mention her in nearly every video. As can be seen on the Netflix series, that didn’t work out so well for the guy and now Carol’s nemesis is behind bars for at least 22-years. But just who really is Carol Baskin? Where did this animal rights activist come from and how did she wind up in the crosshairs of a Zoo Operator? I've dug up lots for you guys in today's video.
