Listen: Salt-N-Pepa Head to Vegas

Oh Yeah, Oh yeah! Legendary rap trio Salt-N-Pepa have been all about expression for over three decades. Last night, the ladies gave a rousing performance at the Billboard Music Awards, singing hits including "Shoop," "Let's Talk About Sex" and "What a Man," with R&B group En Vogue, to mark the 30th anniversary of their Billboard debut. And last week, the group announced they will headline Las Vegas in the fall, making them the first hip-hop artists to land a residency on the coveted strip. I am so here for this later-life chapter of Salt-N-Pepa. 

Check It: For the Love of Black Art

Sean "Diddy" Combs has been revealed as the mystery buyer who dropped a cool $21.1 million for the painting "Past Times" by Kerry James Marshall, making Marshall the most expensive living black artist in history. And I, for one, am delighted. Because yes, black art. And yes, Kerry James Marshall, who is an absolute master. And yes, Sean "Diddy" Combs, who I'm old enough to remember as Puff. Collect that brilliant black art, Puff. I see you out here doing it for the culture.     

Watch: Ali Wong's "Hard Knock Wife"

For the love of whatever god you please, I have just discovered stand-up comedian Ali Wong and you should too, because she is brilliant. She performs her new Netflix special "Hard Knock Wife" seven months pregnant in a skin-tight leopard print dress and it's magical. Wong's commentary on breastfeeding and motherhood is so real it would be unnerving, if her delivery didn't have such perfect comedic timing. She's an actress and appeared in the ABC sitcom American Housewife, but it was her 2016 Netflix special "Baby Cobra" that put her on the map. In the two years since, she's been profiled widely, and has become one of the most famous female Asian American comedians in stand up comedy. Let's laugh.
