Renni captioned the post: “Junior,
“Hi, it’s your mom and I can’t wait till the day we finally meet. To finally see the love that I’ve been feeling manifested into something as tangible as YOU! You are a product of a beautiful bond and you are so loved already. These past few months have been so hard trying to keep you to ourselves.
“Now, not only are we waiting for you everyone else is too. (I know you were tired of me sucking in lol) You have a big family ready to spoil you rotten. We can’t wait to see your little face!!!
“Love,
Your Mom”
Fans may remember that Rucci used to be engaged to Foogiano, and she stayed with him while he began serving a five-year prison sentence for a parole violation.
The Georgia rapper was so appreciative of his partner’s commitment that he took to Instagram to share a photo of his fiancée alongside a caption that acknowledged just how much she was holding him down.
“Everyone left but you , you don’t get the praise you deserve !” he wrote. “Not even from me . I love you more than I know how to explain . There are no others ,its just me and you and I’m fine with that. They talk but they don’t know. My Queen ! My Fiancee! Thank you for the patience and the love . I’m with you 4 Life & After @rennirucci_.”
Renni Rucci added in the comments, “I love you soooo much and I miss tf out you! these comments are hilarious.”
Though details of their breakup never emerged, the fellow Columbia, SC rapper confirmed the news when she Tweeted: “You can’t cheat when you single [winking face emoji].”
Jade Thirlwall has been learning to lean into a softer approach with her voice as she steps into life as a solo performer.
The former Little Mix member shared that she’s been carving out her own sound since the British girl group decided to go on an indefinite break in 2022.
Speaking with ELLE, Jade opened up about discovering that not every track on her debut solo album, That's Showbiz Baby, needed a full vocal showcase.
“That’s what I’ve discovered with this project, especially after Little Mix, is that I don’t always need to give a big vocal moment,” she said. “It’s actually been really nice to understand that part of my voice.”
She pointed to the group’s 2016 single Power, which has at times faced online comments about being a little too intense vocally.
“I’ll scroll through TikTok and see people talk about Power like, ‘These girlies are out here like, AHHH,’” she told the outlet. “Everyone trying to top each other with the loudest note for three minutes straight.”
Although Jade still loves that kind of performance, she said she’s learned the value of holding back.
“I still adore that energy, but it’s been kind of freeing to realise, babe, it doesn’t always need to end with this massive ad-lib run,” she shared.
She also mentioned that her song Angel of My Dreams was first recorded with a much bigger vocal take before she decided to go back and do it in a more relaxed, softer tone.
Jade officially dropped That's Showbiz Baby on 12 September. The record includes 14 tracks, among them IT Girl, Plastic Box, and the lead single Angel of My Dreams.
