Here Are the Lyrics to SZA’s ‘I Hate U’

SZA‘s “I Hate U” started out on SoundCloud, gained steam on TikTok… and then was released to the world in December.

The R&B smash with the unconventional path — SZA’s very first No. 1 on Billboard‘s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart and a top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 — continues to make strides. Find every word to the breakup banger below:

I be so sick of you n—as, y’all contradicting
I be so bored with myself, can you come and f— me?
I feel so ordinary, sad when you around me
Treat me like corduroy, wear me out
Arguments, you air me out
Trippin’ ’bout your whereabouts
I can’t keep no conflict with you
Boy, can we just rub it out?
I don’t want no static with you, you know you my plug
And I can’t shake this habit, no

I’ve been up, baby
Heavy reminiscin’
Heavy on the missin’ you
Wish it was different than what it was (oh yeah)
I’ve been up, baby
Lost in the lie of us
Lost, ain’t no findin’ us
I’ve been up, baby

And if you wondered if I hate you (I do)
Sh–ty of you to make me feel just like this
What I would do to make you feel just like this
And if you wondered if I hate you (fuck you)
Sh–ty of you to make me feel just like this
What I would do to make you feel just like this

Used to be too solid ’til you scrambled me
Used to be your rider, you mishandle me
Used to be nonviolent ’til you ambushed me
Now I’m out here wildin’ with you
Now I’m out here, silent treatment, that mean no permission (no)
Missionary gettin’ borin’, can you switch positions? (Yeah)
Hard to save your soul, you don’t ever listen, no (no)

I’ve been up, baby
Heavy reminiscin’
Heavy on the missin’ you
Wish it was different than what it was (oh yeah)
I’ve been up, baby
Lost in the lie of us
Lost, ain’t no findin’ us
I’ve been up, baby

And if you wondered if I hate you (I do)
Sh–ty of you to make me feel just like this
What I would do to make you feel just like this
And if you wondered if I hate you (f— you)
Sh–ty of you to make me feel just like this
What I would do to make you feel just like this

Here Are the Lyrics to Nicki Minaj & Lil Baby’s ‘Bussin’

Nicki Minaj and Lil Baby were a musical combo that was so nice, they did it twice.

Only a week after releasing their “Do We Have a Problem?” collab — which debuts at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 this week — Minaj and Baby are back again with “Bussin,” which dropped on Friday. But what are they talking about in their new lyrics?

Find every word from Nicki Minaj and Lil Baby’s “Bussin” below:

Yeah, my connect just now sent my wrist back
Tell these bi—es, “Give my drip back”
Strawberry Ferrari, whip that
Like to look back when he h-h-h-h-hit that
A– and thighs, that’s where I’m thick at
Told his ex she ain’t gettin’ that di– back
I call Baby, “Yo, where that stick at?”
Tell that boy come get his sh– back
If they act up, we gon’ fix that
My new n—a ain’t with that chit chat
You know, you ain’t gettin’ your bi— back
Man, I do it, bi—, I did that
Wish a bi— would, I ain’t takin’ my wish back (woo)
This cost half a ticket, plus tax
Big ol’ Draco for a mishap
It say, “Barbie” on my wrist tat’
I ain’t at the bus stop, but my n—as bust back (bust back)

VVS’s bu-bu-bussin’
A– so fat, it’s bu-bu-bussin’
Bag so full, it’s bu-bu-bussin’
Drivin’ foreigns, bi—es bussin’ (Queen)

We run sh–, no question
Bad lil’ bi— get wet, I’m bussin’
Don’t like good boys, I like hustlers
I don’t talk a lot, I got a few questions
I’m that guy, don’t miss your blessings
Life’s too short to be around here stressin’
A– so fat, when she walk dress lift up
Nobody move but us, it’s a stickup (brrr-brrt)
S790 sound like it got hiccups
No matter what, when I call, I’ll pick up
Tell me all the business, I ain’t spittin’ my teacup
Go to sleep in Paris, wakin’ up in Mykonos
I’ma lil’ busy, go shoppin’ ’til I finish
Send-send me with an AMEX, I don’t need a limit
Every-every bit of seven hundred, this is not a rental
Yellow-yellow Lamborghini coupe, this is not a lemon

VVS’s bu-bu-bussin’
A– so fat, it’s bu-bu-bussin’
Bag so full, it’s bu-bu-bussin’
Drivin’ foreigns, bi—es bussin’ (Queen)

I’m tryin’ to ball, I just copped me some hoops
Blonde on my inches, brown on the roots
Ca-Candy apple sticky, red bag, not the fruit
Co-copped me them cute double C’s on my boot
I’ma lil’ busy, go shop until I finish
Send-send me with an AMEX, I don’t need a limit
Every-every bit of seven hundred, this is not a rental
Yellow-yellow Lamborghini coupe, this is not a lemon
I f— him like a boss, Dolce Gabbana scarf
Burberry, ask Siri, I don’t ever take a loss
Big whips, sound like his drip
Big stick, a hundred clips
If it’s givin’ what it’s ‘posed to, I might put it on the lip (woo)

VVS’s bu-bu-bussin’
A– so fat, it’s bu-bu-bussin’
Bag so full, it’s bu-bu-bussin’
Drivin’ foreigns, bi—es bussin’
VVS’s bu-bu-bussin’
A– so fat, it’s bu-bu-bussin’
Bag so full, it’s bu-bu-bussin’
Drivin’ foreigns, bi—es bussin’ (Queen)

Here Are the Lyrics to Lil Nas X’s ‘Thats What I Want’

Lil Nas X‘s debut album Montero won’t quit, with “Thats What I Want” becoming his third No. 1 from the LP on Billboard‘s Pop Airplay chart this week.

The bubbly hit follows chart-toppers “Industry Baby,” featuring Jack Harlow, and “Montero (Call Me by Your Name).”

But maybe when you hear “Thats What I Want” on the radio, it goes by too quick for you to pick up every word — that’s where we come in with the lyrics below:

(One, two, three, four)

Need a boy who can cuddle with me all night
Keep me warm, love me long, be my sunlight
Tell me lies, we can argue, we can fight
Yeah, we did it before, but we’ll do it tonight
That afro Black boy with the gold teeth
He dark skin looking at me like he know me
I wonder if he got the G or the B
Let me find out and see, he comin’ over to me, yeah

These days I’m way too lonely
I’m missin’ out, I know
These days I’m way too alone
And I’m known for givin’ love away but

I want (ah)
Someone to love me
I need (ah)
Someone who needs me
‘Cause it don’t feel right when it’s late at night
And it’s just me and my dreams
So I want (ah)
Someone to love
That’s what I f—in’ want

Look
You know it’s harder to find in these times
But I got nothin’ but love on my mind (my mind)
I need a baby while I’m in my prime
Need an adversary to my down and weary
Like tell me, “That’s life” when I’m stressin’ at night
Be like, “You’ll be okay” and, “Everything is alright,” uh
Love me or nothin’ ’cause I’m not wanting anything
But your loving, your body, and a little bit of your brain

These days I’m way too lonely
I’m missin’ out, I know
These days I’m way too alone
And I’m known for givin’ love away but

I want (ah)
Someone to love me
I need (ah)
Someone who needs me
‘Cause it don’t feel right when it’s late at night
And it’s just me and my dreams
So I want (ah)
Someone to love
That’s what I f—in’ want

I want (ah)
Someone to love me
I need (ah)
Someone who needs me
‘Cause it don’t feel right when it’s late at night
And it’s just me and my dreams
So I want (ah)
Someone to love
That’s what I f—in’ want

Here Are All the People of Color Who Have Hosted the Oscars

When Regina Hall and Wanda Sykes co-host the 2022 Academy Awards on March 27, according to reports, it will mark the first time two people of color have co-hosted in the same year. (The third co-host, according to those same reports, will be Amy Schumer.)

But who was the first person of color to co-host the Oscars? And who was the first person of color to host all by him or herself? Let’s take a look.

April 10, 1972: Sammy Davis Jr., who blazed many trails in show business, became the first person of color to co-host the Oscars. He teamed with comedian Alan King, two-time Oscar winner Helen Hayes and past and future Oscar winner Jack Lemmon. This may have been the peak year of Davis’ long career. In January, he was the guest star on perhaps the most famous episode of what was then TV’s top-rated series, All in the Family. In June, he landed his only No. 1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100, “The Candy Man.”

April 2, 1974: Diana Ross became the first woman of color to co-host the Oscars. She did the honors with box-office king Burt Reynolds and a pair of past Oscar winners, David Niven and writer/director/actor John Huston. Ross had been nominated for best actress the year before for her first film, Lady Sings the Blues, but lost to Liza Minnelli in Cabaret. Ross’ daughter, TV star Tracee Ellis Ross — who was born 17 days after Lady Sings the Blues opened in October 1972 — announced this year’s Oscar nominees on Feb. 8, along with actor Leslie Jordan.

April 8, 1975: Davis became the first person of color to co-host twice. His co-hosts this time were Bob Hope (who hosted or co-hosted the Oscars a total of 19 times, more than anyone else), past Oscar winner Frank Sinatra and future Oscar winner Shirley MacLaine.

March 28, 1977: Richard Pryor co-hosted with past Oscar winner Ellen Burstyn, future Oscar winner Warren Beatty, and past and future Oscar winner Jane Fonda. Pryor starred in the film Greased Lightning that year, which was loosely based on the story of Wendell Scott, the first Black NASCAR race winner.

April 11, 1983: Pryor became the second person of color to co-host twice. His co-hosts this time were Minnelli, her Oscar-nominated Arthur co-star Dudley Moore and past Oscar winner Walter Matthau. Pryor released two films in 1983, Superman III and the stand-up film Richard Pryor: Here and Now.

March 21, 1994: Whoopi Goldberg became the first person of color to host solo. She hosted again on March 25, 1996; March 21, 1999; and March 24, 2002. Goldberg is one of only four people to have hosted the Oscars solo four or more times. Hope hosted solo 12 times, followed by Billy Crystal (nine times) and Johnny Carson (five times). Goldberg was Oscar-nominated for best actress for her first film, The Color Purple (1985), and won best supporting actress five years later for Ghost.

Feb. 27, 2005: Chris Rock became the second person of color to host solo. He hosted again on Feb. 28, 2016.

You may have noticed that no Latinos or Asian Americans are listed. Clearly, there is history still to be made.

Where to Stream ‘Ghostbusters’ & More Ivan Reitman Movies Online

Ivan Reitman will be remembered for Ghostbusters, Animal House, Heavy Metal, Meatballs and many more films. Tributes continue to pour in for the late director and producer, who died Sunday (Feb. 13) at age 75.

Throughout his more than 50-year career, Reitman directed, produced and executive produced dozens of films and TV shows, also including Space Jam: A New Legacy (he produced the original Space Jam as well) and Ghostbusters: Afterlife.

In 1984, Harold Ramis and Dan Aykroyd teamed up with Reitman to bring Ghostbusters to the big screen. The supernatural film franchise includes Ghostbusters II and the 2016 all-female film adaptation starring Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wig, Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon.

Ghostbusters: Afterlife, the latest installment in the franchise, was directed by Reitman’s son, Jason Reitman. “I’ve lost my hero,” he tweeted Monday (Feb. 14). “All I want is the chance to tell my father one more story. He came from a family of survivors and turned his legacy into laughter.” Jason Reitman went on to thank fans for all their support before adding, “Enjoy his movies and remember his storytelling gifts. Nothing would make him happier.”

How to Watch Ghostbusters Online

Ghostbusters and other titles in Reitman’s catalog of classic films are available to stream on Amazon Prime Video and other major league streamers, including Vudu, Google Play, YouTube and Apple TV+. You can also rent Ghostbusters on Red Box and stream on-demand or find a kiosk to pick up a physical copy.

The supernatural comedy will cost you anywhere from $3-$5 to rent and around $14-$15 to buy (click here to purchase a Blu-ray or DVD).

Bill Murray, Sigourney Weaver, Ramis, Aykroyd and Rick Moranis star in the original Ghostbusters film. With a budget of just $30 million, Ghostbusters became a hit out of the gate, raking in $13.6 million during its opening weekend (the film beat other newcomers, Gremlins and Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, to claim the top spot). The comedy remained at No. 1 for seven consecutive weeks and made $146.5 million at the box office, before being unseated by Purple Rain. During its initial theatrical run, Ghostbusters grossed a total of $240 million worldwide.
