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.

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.

Bangin Candy: Drake's "HYFR" Vixen Stephanie Monique [PHOTOS]

Hip-Hop Wired — Mon, 09 Apr 2012 18:12:09 +0000

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.

Bangin' Candy: Drake's Ex-Flame & Twitter Buddy Maliah Michel [PHOTOS]

Kazeem Famuyide (@RealLifeKaz) — Fri, 09 Mar 2012 21:38:57 +0000

Drake is a true night owl of Twitter, usually reserving most of his tweet binging for very late at night. However, last night he might have been sending a few shots at his ex queen, exotic dancer Maliah Michel. "Sometimes I wanna tweet things like “B-tch how you stop f-ckin with me and now you live on twitter everyday”…but then I just don't," he cryptically tweeted. Shortly after this went out Maliah, who has been linked to Sean Kingston presently, responded bytweeting "Yes, I love Twitter and I don't f**k with disrespectful crybaby A$$ n-ggas that's why." Maliah quickly shot down rumors that she was referring to Drizzy in a follow up tweeted that said, "You all think that is the only man in my life it was 2 years ago. Please no more talk about him. Find me someone else. Who will appreciate me."

To be real, I would be a little salty if I let a woman that looks like Maliah slip away. Not to say Drake is doing bad by any stretch of the imagination after being linked to Rihanna and Serena Williams, but let's check out exactly what Drizzy is missing out on and Sean Kingston is simpin' on.

Bangin' Candy: Meet Joe Budden's New Wifey Dazzle [Photos]

The Kid Skoob — Thu, 01 Mar 2012 20:25:47 +0000

During an appearance on Sway In The Morning, Joe Budden spoke about some of his past relationships. The Slaughterhouse MC has a history of taking down some pretty bad females and while he didn't disclose what his latest arm-piece's name was, he did take the time to show us who she is. She goes by the name "Dazzle" on Twitter, which is a fitting name after seeing what she was working with.

One point that was made during the interview on Sway in the Morning was that each female that he's been connected to has seen their profile rise. Budden mentioned that this new female companion isn't a model nor video vixen. However, after seeing these pictures, she'll surely find her way onto a future cover of Smooth, Black Men's, KING, etc...

Continue on for the photos and let us know what you think of "Dazzle."
