The K-pop group Kiss of Life is apologizing for all the distress a recent video they posted caused ... claiming they weren't trying to be racist while dancing to 50 Cent's "In da Club."

The band -- which boasts nearly 300K fans on X -- shared a handwritten apology Saturday admitting they erred by posting the recent birthday clip.

ICYMI ... the four bandmembers shared a clip where they danced to the hit 2003 track -- while wearing their hats askew and big gold chains around their necks, basically parodying clothing some rappers might wear.

Billy McFarland and the Fyre Festival 2 team are sticking by the location for the event ... claiming they've been working closely with Playa Del Carmen to ensure the festival happens -- despite the government's claims to the contrary.

Here's the deal ... earlier this week, officials for Playa Del Carmen -- a small town just south of Cancún in Mexico -- wrote a message in Spanish, part of which translates to "There is no existence of a registry nor plans that would indicate such an event taking place in this municipality."

They also add, "... No such event with that name will take place in our city" -- indicating they haven't even heard of the event before.

Jim Jones wasn't happy about a fire drill at his recent show ... roasting the venue for having to evacuate after someone smoked in the bathroom -- and, it ended up ruining the whole evening.

The rapper was all set to perform at a venue in an upstate New York town ... crowd packed in, mic in hand and ready to rap -- when someone decided to light up in the bathroom and accidentally set off the fire alarm.

An eyewitness tells us ownership looked into the fire alarm ... and, while it seems there was no imminent threat to safety, they still decided they needed everyone to evacuate before coming back in.

Lil Yachty was not having it when a fan at his show this week interrupted a moment of silence for Juice WRLD ... and LY went ballistic.

In a video that has since gone viral ... Lil Yachty unloaded on someone at his show in Washington, D.C. -- the latest stop for Tyler, The Creator's "Chromakopia" tour -- during a moment of silence for Juice WRLD.

Someone shouted from the crowd in the moment -- and LY snapped "SHUT THE F*** UP!" ... before getting help from the crowd to figure out who said it.

Mariah Carey made an unexpected appearance on her son’s Twitch live stream ... and the poor kid was mortified in the hilarious moment!

The 13-year-old Moroccan, AKA "Rocky," was chopping it up with his fans on Twitch ... when his sister Monroe showed up in the background -- followed by his superstar mom.

Needless to say, everyone on his stream went nuts when they saw Mariah ... with several asking "Ms. Carey" to stick around and hang.

Terrence Howard just gave a glimpse into what he said was the dark side of Hollywood ... and one example he used from his personal experience was none other than Diddy!

The film and TV actor was a recent guest on Patrick Bet-David's "PBD Podcast" ... where he claimed he was targeted by Diddy for sex under the guise of coaching.

TH doesn't say exactly when this alleged attempt by Diddy occurred ... but claims he was invited to Diddy's place when the music mogul asked Terrence for acting lessons.

Machine Gun Kelly is firing back at his ex's ex Brian Austin Green by honoring him with an exclusive drink he's claiming will wash away any potential issues with adulthood -- and help him mind his own beeswax!!!

On Friday, MGK's 27 Club Coffee introduced the "Child Actor Margarita" today, an ALL-GREEN drink intended to "put a childish twist ... for those days when you just don't wanna act like an adult."

To add a little salt into the wound -- and margarita, the coffee club added a "9021-OMG" to the caption.

Joe Budden has come to the realization that the Hip Hop culture -- and quality -- that sparked his successful endeavors, is LONG GONE.

While reviewing Lil Durk's newly released album on his podcast, Budden scoffed at the incarcerated Chicago rapper's attempt to sanitize his lyrics in the wake of catching murder-for-hire charges.

Budden's podcast co-host Officially Ice argued that Durk's incarceration put him in a tricky spot to feature content about criminal activity -- but Budden would hear none of it.

Kanye West is still traveling alone ... saying hello to some onlookers in Japan -- without Bianca Censori by his side.

The rapper was walking through Bvlgari -- a hotel in Tokyo -- when he flashed a peace sign for someone snapping a pic.

He's decked out in black here ... seemingly in a fine mood -- though he's still spending his trip all by himself. Last week, we got a pic of Kanye leaving a store in Tokyo, head down.

Slim Shady is officially grandpa Shady ... 'cause Eminem's daughter Hailie Jade has welcomed her first child!

Hailie made the announcement on Friday ... posting to Instagram snaps of her little boy, Elliot Marshall McClintock, who was born March 14, with the caption, "happy due date//3 weeks earthside little e."

As you know ... HJ -- a major social influencer in her own right -- is one of Eminem's three kids with ex-wife Kim Scott -- and she's married to Evan McClintock.

Post Malone is falling in love overseas ... The "I Had Some Help" hitmaker looked smitten with his girlfriend Christy Lee as they dined at a top-tier steakhouse in Paris Thursday evening.

Check out the snaps ... Post isn't too shy for some PDA as he leans into his new girlfriend, making her smile from ear to ear. She even goes in for a little smooch at one point. The couple seemed absolutely head over heels and unconcerned about being spotted.

The pair dined at Beefbar, a high-end steakhouse with roots in Monte Carlo that serves a Japanese wagyu filet for nearly $200.

Michael B. Jordan and Hailee Steinfeld make sin look good ... 'cause they both stunned at the premiere of their new movie "Sinners."

The two stars hit up Manhattan's AMC Lincoln Square on Thursday for a first look at their highly anticipated new movie before going to the after-party at Aqua New York ... and, in exclusive video obtained by TMZ, MBJ looked right in his element -- grinning wide and chatting up everyone at the premiere.

He's a natural in a crowd ... laughing it up with some, chatting quietly with others -- and totally captivating those around him. Not exactly a shock given he's been one of the biggest stars in the world for a while.

Duke Gadd's cause of death has been released ... the drummer died of an overdose of fentanyl and cocaine -- mirroring what Corey Feldman originally said after he passed.

According to a spokesperson for Clark County, Nevada ... Gadd died from "combined toxic effects of fentanyl and cocaine." He also suffered from high blood pressure.

Remember ... Corey announced the death on social media -- saying Duke died in Las Vegas and sharing a short clip of the musician banging away on the drums.

DJ Akademiks is the latest media maven to interview The Artist Formerly Known As Kanye West -- and from his POV, the marbles are still there!!!

Big Ak joined Charles and Babcock on "TMZ Live" on Thursday to discuss his explosive stand-up chat with Ye, where the unpredictable rapper popped up on him mid-interview, draped in all-black KKK garb.

Ye tried to give Ak the heads up about his David Duke fashion sense .. but Ak says he misread the text and still got surprised.

Rob49's New Orleans slang has spread to the entire country -- the platinum-selling rapper's "WTHELLY" catchphrase has completely engulfed social media!!!

TMZ Hip Hop linked up with Rob this week out in Burbank, CA and he tells us lingo was something he and his friends kicked out around -- and he decided to popularize the phrase over a banging beat!!!

It's carefree nonsense -- the type of stuff TikTok eats up. There's love and some hate but it's got everyone talking -- except for Rob's b-ball hero LeBron James!!!
