On Media Outlook News: W hen you love someone, the last thing you want to do is imagine life without them. You have a history of memories, experiences and even children in some cases that make you want to “stay and work it out.” But sometimes, no matter how much you may truly love someone, it’s simply best to cut ties. Here are seven ways to tell if you need to look for the nearest exit sign in your relationship. 1) You fight all of the time. While it’s very normal to have the occasional disagreement, hosting regular screaming matches with your significant other is not. If you find yourself arguing more than hugging, it may be time to re-evaluate your relationship. 2) You are staying together “for the kids.” There’s nothing worse than staying in a relationship because you want your children to grow up in a two-parent home. While it’s great to have both parents under one roof, listening to them argue and observing how miserable they are is not. What’s more importa...

On Media Outlook News:  Joe Budden has made his opinion on Hip Hop’s new wave of rappers crystal clear: he doesn’t like them. Joey recently took aim at self-proclaimed  King of Teens , Lil Yachty, on Complex’s   “Everyday Struggle”   series by calling him a “troll.” He specifically shared his disdain for Yachty’s  Teenage Emotions  album cover, which embraces diversity and is representative of what society would consider social rejects. 5.26.17 A post shared by KING BOAT (@lilyachty) on Apr 20,   2017 at 11:24am PDT “I don’t think that Yachty is Hip Hop,” Budden said. “I don’t think that Yachty’s label [Capitol Records] is Hip Hop.
