We conducted an interview with the power couple Creme Dela Creme & Lex Dabenefit about love & business. These is Creme’s version.

Q. Say I didn't know you Creme? Tell me who you are?

A. Creme Dela Creme is just that bihhh !! Just joking I’m super humble. I just try to live up to my name in everything I put my mind and heart into!!

Q. So you & Lex Dabenefit are an item right? And both of you guys are rappers. Have you guys ever done any features together?

A. I have never met this woman in my life (lmfao).. she seems cool tho !!! I heard her music she’s dope af !!! Lol we have actually sat down and wrote a couple songs that will be put in motion pretty soon! And o yea ... I have a tiny tiny crush on her ... she might be my girlfriend at the end if this interview who knows lol Q. Are your features based off of like real life situations between 2 lovers or just regular duets between 2 artist?

A. No the songs we have wrote together are different from our story but we are a vibe together musically ...they are super relatable to so many others I’m sure Q. Would you guys consider your relationship and public image to be more like Beyonce & Jay Z or Kim and Kanye, and why?

A. Neither they cheat /been cheated on and are rich ... there finances are our goals of course but I would compare us to Cora and brown lmfao ...Umm I’d say more hey Arnold and helga .... with a little Martin and Pam !! Y’all laughing but it works for us Lmfaoo I love it here.

Q. The other day I was strolling on facebook and I saw this post about a new song entitled "Only Fans Affair. Tell me more about that?

A. That was an event that lex performed at !!! She did amazing !! She surprised me and let me perform with her as well .. we did a cover to cardi bs Wap and it was kinda dope to perform together !!

6

Q. So on another note, with you both being public figures and you know fans/groupies, right? How do you guys deal with that aspect of the business? A. Business is business and stay out my business !!! Lol .... when your foundation is strong you can’t go wrong !!! But if things start to shake I’ll be on 1st 48.... so yeahhh I don’t let all that stuff bother me ..

Q. Let's talk about being LGBTQ in a mostly straight industry. How has being LGBTQ hurt or elevated your career?

A. Being true to who you are can be very beneficial in some ways but negative in some ways as well in this industry .. being that majority of the world is gay in the first place some out some in certain circumstances ...but being a female rapper you have to prove yourself a little harder just because you want to have mfs feel you and be able to relate ... unless you just talk about your kitty or how you do what you do behind closed doors then it’s not that hard honestly lol being a female rapper and gay is a challenge because a lot of the times it’s really not even about what your saying it’s how marketable and the chances thst A mf think they can fuck you to be honest .. sex sales ... it intrigues the opposite sex .. because I’m a more feminine lesbian I can paint any picture I desire the only thing that stops me sometimes is I can really really rap so when it comes to features with most Males i feel they are intimidated by me lyrically none the less so to be a HARD gay feminine female it has it’s ups and downs I think it would be harder for benefit only because of the marketing portion of her being a more masculine lesbian but lyrically she can kill these niggas and that’s another thing that will have her in her own lane ... I trust that she can do it tho she really like that Q. So speaking of the LGBTQ factor right?. How do you guys use your platforms to promote social acceptability amongst the LGBTQ community?

A.I don’t really ... I’m cool with anybody that’s cool with me !! I’m a artist but I’m not a super flamboyant person in general which I know I need to turn up a little more but I will lol Q. So I ask all my LGBTQ promoters this question? Frank Ocean or NasX? Why? A. I like Young Ma .. Siya... KEHLANI.... but musically FRANK OCEAN Q. Is there anything else you'd like my readers to know about you guys or your guy's movement(s) or brand(s) before we wrap.

Q. Say I wasn't your cousin Lex and I didn't know you Creme? Tell me who is You both are? (Both Answer Individually).

A Native of Columbia sc . I got serious about music when I moved to Charlotte. Did several shows at Scorpios and 360 Lounge and competed in a coast to coast live competition there as well. Released my first project in March 2020. Music has been my outlet forever. And being surrounded by so much talent over the years it just flowed for me. I have my own lane but I’m well versed in all lanes.I just want to make good music and vibe.

Q. So you guys are an item right? And both of you guys are rappers. Have you guys ever done any features together?

A.Who Creme naw we not an item but we have some pretty dope projects coming up real soon. We may have a slight spark. You know how artists are though. When you are around someone non stop you may just dabble We do have one piece we have already released on YouTube visuals.

Coming soon for a cover of the WAP. Stay tuned I mag cuff her by the fall who knows lol Q. Are your features based off of like real life situations between 2 lovers or just regular duets between 2 artist?

A.We plan to incorporate both sides of the spectrum but with all our music we are just having fun. Collectively these are two amazing minds coming to life.

Q. Would you guys consider your relationship and public image to be more like Beyonce & Jay Z or Kin and Kanye, and why?

A.Definitely potential for a modern day Bey and Jay but if we were Kim and Kanye she is definitely Kanye lol.

Q. The other day I was strolling on facebook and I saw this post about a new song entitled "Only Fans Affair. Tell me more about that?

A.That wasn’t a song it was actually an event I did in Moncks Corner opening up for Kwik Stakks and Ladi Rae both dope artists on the rise as well good vibes and great networking.

Q. Let's talk about being LGBTQ in a mostly straight industry. How has being LGBTQ hurt or elevated your career?

A. It hurts just as much as anything else in most instances you have to be someone you aren’t to appeal to all sides. I like to think if you really listen to my music u will give either way because I make music based on emotions and experiences. I am proud of the LGBTQ community for standing and stepping out in the music industry just because we like what we like doesn’t mean we don’t experience or that we aren’t relatable. So I can’t say that our community hasn’t elevated my career either.

Q. So speaking of the LGBTQ factor right?. How do you guys use your platforms to promote social acceptability amongst the LGBTQ community?

A.I promote being you and loving you. In this platform you can be you unapologetically. But I use that outside my platform as well.

Q. So I ask all my body LGBTQ promoters this question? Frank Ocean or NasX? Why? A. Definitely Frank Ocean he is sincere with his in my opinion. I’m not into clout chasers so Nas X will never be my cup of tea until he humbles himself.

Q. Is there anything else you'd like my readers to know about you guys or your guy's movement(s) or brand(s) before we wrap.

A. Other than staying tuned to the movement and follow and share that’s if for me. Concrete apparel is still bumping. Artist Merch is otw and more great music for all listeners coming through. Thanks to all who support and thanks to the ones who don’t it fuels me!

Q. Well there it is, Creme De la Cream and Lex Dabenefit ladies and gentlemen. But before we wrap, tell my readers where they can connect with you on social media and the www.

A.Lex DaBenefit on all platforms literally thanks again y’all. And thanks southern plug for the amazing opportunity!

As youngsters, their passion music began in a simple band classroom. One (Khalid) found joy in the drums, which would lead to recording and producing soundtracks. The other was 1st chair playing the trumpet. That actually landed him his first Co Anchorman job for his High school Morning show. They have now elevated to production as well as acting in films. Within the last 2 years they have both have managed to become international phenomenon.

Big Freedia Photo Here

Big Freedia Bounces Back Even before becoming Big Freedia, Freddie Ross was known around New Orleans. Her "signature call"—an operatic bellow that she lets out when I ask to hear it—was legendary in the city. "They'd be like, 'Oh that's Freddie in the club'....

The signature call comes very loud. And proud." Freedia came out to her mom as gay when she was 13, and soon came out to her classmates as well. She tells me she "had to do what every other gay kid had to do: fight for their life, and fight to be strong and stand up and let people know that you are not no joke in who you were." She eventually started performing as part of New Orleans' queer bounce music scene, and became a local celebrity. Then, in 2005, Freedia got shot.

"What the motive was, I don’t know to this day still," she says. After finally mustering the courage to start performing again, Freedia also moved into a new place, to get a fresh start. Hurricane Katrina hit about a week later. She and her family were together at her duplex during the storm, where the water rose to the second floor. They cut a hole in the roof to signal for help. Days after being evacuated, Freedia made her way to Houston, where she lived for two years. In Houston, Freedia met her current boyfriend, Devon. After years of dating men who weren't openly gay, Freedia says Devon's openness about their relationship has made a difference. "When your love grows for somebody and y’all get closer you wanna...feel more appreciated, and you wanna feel loved," she says. Freedia eventually returned to New Orleans, where her career continues to expand. “A lot was happening after Katrina. I mean money was slinging everywhere,” Freedia tells me. “You know everybody had FEMA checks, girl!” I talk with Freedia about what's happened in her life in the years since she returned to her hometown: publishing a memoir, starring in a reality TV series, and losing her beloved mother to cancer.

IS COI LERAY

GAY OR ST8

Coi Leray’s sexuality became a trending topic following the release of her breakthrough hit Huddy. The song featured lyrics suggesting that Coi might be lesbian or bisexual. DJ Vlad asked her about the lyrics, and Coi explained that what she says in the studio is not necessarily reflective of who she is in real life. “When you in the studio, behind the mic as an artist, you are going to do whatever it is on a creative aspect to make that shit sound hot, and people got alter egos,” Coi explained. She went on to state that she finds some women attractive, but she would never pursue a sexual relationship with a woman. Coi will flirt and dance with a woman, but she insists that she is straight. Leray told DJ Vlad: “Sometimes I feel like I could take a bitch and that’s just what it is. I ain’t girls. But I will tell you know that I am attracted to girls, but I am not into them, if that makes sense. I think that a lot of bitches are pretty. Depending on who or whatever, if I feel comfortable we could turn up in a club and dance on each other, but like, I like dick.” Following the Vlad TV interview news broke last week that in commemoration of “Pride Month” Leray came out the clost.

So lets just say her sexuality is as mysterious as her relationship with her estranged father Benzino of LHHA.
