The first lady of the Taylor Gang, Lola Monroe, is starting to make waves. Now known as more than just one of the more famous Eye Candies of the past decade, the former Angel Lola Luv is running with one of the most popular crews in Hip-Hop.

But as it's been well, (and properly) documented, Lola's definitely the easiest thing to look at between the Taylor Gang members.

Rico Love has been slowly building up his Division 1 record label based out of Miami, Florida through artist like Young Chris and Teiarra Marie. Yesterday we posted a song featuring one of his newest signees, Rabbit.

We said she was a certified a snackbox, and we weren't kidding. The former model is best known for her spreads in Smooth Magazine and has now forayed into a career in Hip-Hop with the multi-platinum producer backing her. Check out some more looks from Rabbit after the jump and in the gallery.

Kazeem Famuyide (@RealLifeKaz) — Thu, 10 May 2012 16:51:25 +0000

Usain Bolt is not only the world's fastest man, but he's been one of the world's most eligible bachelors for a while. News broke out yesterday courtesy of Bossip that his relationship with Slovakian fashion designer Lubica Slovak had sputtered recently. While Slovak is no slouch in the looks department, Bolt's ex, Taneish Simpson, is a certified snack box.

You may remember Simpson by the name of "Lava" as a contestant on the second season of For The Love Of Ray J. Since splitting with Bolt, Simpson has also been linked to reggae star Bounty Killer. Check out the Jamaican bombshell after the jump.

Last night, Floyd Mayweather defeated Miguel Cotto at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas by decision and retained his WBA Super Welter Weight Championship. While the fight ened up being more competitive than expected, plenty of eyes were on Mayweather's fiancé, Shantel Jackson, thanks to that sick dress she was wearing.

What better time than ever to dedicate a Bangin Candy post to the Miami born model? Enjoy the pics in the gallery. Even if Mayweather had lost, he still won. Clap for Miss Jackson.

New Jersey's Sophia Marie has been a familiar face for quite a while. We first caught a glimpse of this beauty in Drake's unforgettable video for "Best I Ever Had," back in 2009. Today, she is the leading lady in B.o.B's video for "So Good." Since our boy Bobby dropped his new album, Strange Clouds, today we figured it would be a great time to take a gander at the lovely lady. Hit the jump to check her out in all of her glory.

Rihanna's Very Hot Coachella Weekend [PHOTOS]

Kazeem Famuyide (@RealLifeKaz) — Mon, 16 Apr 2012 20:53:22 +0000

The reigning sexiest woman alive, Rihanna, took in Coachella weekend much like the over 50,000 attendants of the event: very little clothes and some of the sweet cheeba. She surprised a lot of fans when she went to watch A$AP Rocky on Saturday night, and surprised even more fans when she took on Calvin Harris' set to perform her smash single "We Found Love." During the main event of the weekend while Dr. Dre and Snoop put on their epic live show, Rihanna took in the show in the middle of the crowd like the rest of the fans by sitting on the shoulders of a tall man while rolling a joint. She's not used to soda and nuggets, but she is out here thuggin'. Check out all the flicks we caught of Ri-Ri during the weekend.

Say what you will about Drake's sensitive bars, son stays affiliated with a fly looking woman. One of the latest in Drizzy's list of "alleged girlfriends" is Stephanie Monique (also known as "Stephanie Caicedo"). Previously, Monique let it be clear that although she was a fan of the YMCMB rapper's work, she was not involved with him. "I'm a working, PROFESSIONAL, woman. Not a gold digger, and certainly not some Slore that's boning Drake for perks," Monique told Bossip. "Sometimes us chicks do things for reasons unsaid. But, I do NOT know DRAKE… Haters will be haters! It's evident!"

Nevertheless, the Panamanian and Black model hails from New York, now lives in Miami and can be spotted in the YMCMB rapper's "HYFR" video. That said, we felt is was our duty to assemble a collection of this well stacked beauty's photos for your perusal.
