On today’s Rickey Smiley Morning Show, the crew dives into four gripping headlines that reflect the highs and lows of fame and influence. First, Atlanta rapper Cash Out was sentenced to life in prison—plus an additional 70 years—for rape, aggravated sodomy, sex trafficking, and RICO violations. The sentence also included convictions of his mother and cousin, who aided in a “diabolical” trafficking ring misusing his fame to lure victims via social media. Next, Ray J opened up about his strained relationship with sister Brandy, calling himself “an embarrassment” in a raw conversation on Evelyn Lozada’s podcast. He expressed shame yet affirmed their bond remains, sharing that their children still keep the family connected. In lighter yet telling entertainment news, Drake has wiped away his tattoo tribute to LeBron James, replacing it with one of NBA’s top stars, Shai Gilgeous‑Alexander—fueling fresh speculation about shifting alliances in sports and pop culture.
