The KPop Demon Hunters merch juggernaut shows no signs of slowing down, with a new Nerf collaboration that reimagines HUNTR/X’s demon-fighting weapons of choice for (gentle) at-home roleplay.

Xzibit’s Instagram comments were flooded by cat-loving fans across the globe who wanted to know how he was able to keep Thunder Cat alive for more than 20 years, and the West Coast rapper posted a follow-up video explaining his tactics on Monday.

“I had no idea you guys liked cats that much, but Thunder Cat has been in my life for a long time. She’s seen it all,” he said. “Everybody’s asking how I kept her alive for, you know, this long. Well, first of all, I love my cat. I take care of her and I look out.”

The former Pimp My Ride host revealed that Thunder Cat has a dry food diet for the most part, but gets a junk food treat when Thunder’s on his best behavior.

Xzibit credited doctors for getting her on an IV fluid regimen to treat her previous kidney and thyroid medical issues.

“People have loved my cat as much as I have for a long time, so people send me sh– all the time associated with my cat,” he continued. “The fact that this is going crazy is beyond me. But this is the kind of sh– I get.”

Fans have sent him gifts over the years, ranging from a sweater that he’s worn with Thunder Cat’s face emblazoned across the garment as well as various paintings and portraits. “People love Thunder Cat. I love Thunder Cat,” X added. “I’m glad you guys like her as much as I do.”

The feline has been getting so much love that X decided to make Thunder Cat his own Instagram account, which now boasts more than 25,000 followers.

On the music side, Xzibit’s last album came with Kingmaker last year. In May, he joined forces with D-12 and Ice-T for the band’s “Nightmare Walking” single.

Lil Wayne was an open book during his recent appearance on Lil Dicky, Benny Blanco and Kristin Batalucco’s podcast Friends Keep Secrets.

During a conversation about how he watched mostly Naked and Afraid and sports while he was behind bars, the New Orleans rapper admitted that Ancient Aliens is a guilty pleasure of his when he’s not watching sports.

“I love everything about Ancient Aliens,” he admitted after Batalucco asked if he watched the 2025 documentary The Age of Disclosure. “But that [documentary], Age of Disclosure, that’s when they’re exposing everything that the government is watching.”

He then said we still don’t truly know the real truth about aliens while also bringing up the conspiracy theory that an extraterrestrial by the name of “J-Rod” survived an alleged UFO crash that happened in Kingsman, Arizona, in 1953. “We also have to understand what an alien is,” Wayne said. “None of us know. We don’t even know if they’re from another planet. The only alien that we supposedly knew is the one from Roswell that lived, J-Rod.”

He added: “J -Rod said, ‘I’m not from another planet.’ He said, ‘I’m from another time.’ He said that your world will end in a cataclysm, and some people will make it — a lot of people will — and they’ll have to live within the planet, basically going like ants. And that civilization, that time, will last so long that we’ll adapt to living there, and just like we adapt to everything else, we’re gonna start adapting to being an insect, devoid of light. That’s why alien eyes are so big because wherever they came from, there’s no light and the atmosphere is so dense. That’s why they don’t grow too tall because the atmosphere don’t allow them to. They don’t eat the same food, that’s why don’t get so big like that.”

Elsewhere in the podcast, Weezy revealed that he eats “breakfast for dinner a lot” and that he’s not the biggest fan of milk even though its essential when enjoying a bowl of cereal. “I don’t do milk, and I still eat cereal. I put milk in it; I just can’t look at it,” he said. “I don’t eat a lot of things that are white and soft. So, like, mashed potatoes I don’t f— with. Ranch, I can’t do. Stuff like mayonnaise, nothing. Milk is the only thing, and white rice. That’s the only thing I can do.”

Oh, and we almost forgot: When asked who his favorite rappers were, Wayne answered with Jay-Z (despite the supposed Super Bowl snub) and Missy Elliott.
