Flo Milli Claps Back at Critics for Performance Days After Announcing Baby's Birth
Flo Milli has a bit of advice for anyone who is making negative comments about her motherhood or work ethic.
On Monday, May 5, just days after the April 25 announcement that her first child arrived, the 25-year-old 'Roc Steady' rapper used social media to address naysayers who questioned why she performed at a recent music festival.
'Flo Milli's [expletive] don't got a job? Why is she already performing? Where is her family and friends?' a commenter wrote on X.
She replied, '[Expletive] go choke on a [expletive] and die before you speak on me, my child's father or my family.'
The artist, whose real name is Tamia Monique Carter, performed at Memphis' RiverBeat Musical Festival on Saturday, May 3.
Other performers included Missy Elliott, Benson Boone, Ludacris, Steve Aoki, Busta Rhymes and more.

Additionally, Flo Milli seemingly noted that the day she revealed her son had been born was not the same day he made his entrance into the world.
'Its yall really thinking i had my baby 9 days ago,' another tweet read.
The platinum-selling rapper added, 'God forbid a girl just wanna feel like herself again and perform.'

On April 24, Flo Milli shared an Instagram post letting her followers know it was almost time for the arrival of her first child.
'yall pray for me 😭👩🏾🍼🍼,' she captioned the photo, which showed an empty maternity ward hospital bed. Machinery, an extra chair for a guest and a table helped set the scene for the special moment.
The following day the "Never Lose Me" artist shared another single Instagram photo — a close-up selfie of her holding her tiny newborn baby in just one hand as he rested on her shoulder.
Her infant wore a knitted hat and a diaper.
'& yall bett not play bout yall internet nephew 🩵,' she jokingly and affectionately wrote of her little one.
As fans congratulated the new mom, so did her industry peers such as Latto, GloRilla, Coi Leray, SZA and Halle Bailey.

"Awwww he's gorgeous and perfect I can TELL," SZA wrote underneath the post, adding, "😫🥺 congratulations! ❤️❤️❤️❤️."
"Congrats Floskiii 🥹💙," Latto commented.
Vibe reported in March that rapper G6Reddot is the child's father. He shared his own baby pics on Instagram, which showed him holding his child and a few bottles of milk.

Monyetta Shaw-Carter's Birthday Hits Different – She's Celebrating Life & Love After A Stage 1 Breast Cancer Battle
Source: Paras Griffin / Getty Today (May 31) isn't just another birthday for Monyetta Shaw-Carter — it's a full-on rebirth. After battling stage 1 breast cancer, the Real Housewives of Atlanta star's special day hits different. She is turning 45 and celebrating with purpose, power, and a whole lot of pink. 'I caught the cancer early, and because of that, I will be here for my kids,' she told People . 'There's nothing more important than getting checked often and early to protect your future. Our health is irreplaceable.' Her diagnosis came after she felt an unusual sensation in her left breast last September. She didn't find a lump but told People she had a strange feeling that something was off. She listened. And that instinct saved her life. 'It was literally like my body was alerting me that something was wrong,' Monyetta said. 'It's so important for me to share this story because I hope to inspire others not to dismiss their gut feeling. Our body speaks to us, and when it does, we have to listen. It can be a matter of life or death.' One month after that self-check, a mammogram confirmed she had stage 1 invasive ductal carcinoma. She underwent a lumpectomy in January and completed 16 rounds of radiation by May 2. Now, weeks later, she's bringing her loved ones together for a joyful, pink-powered birthday bash. Her party honors life, resilience, and sisterhood. Monyetta credits her husband, Heath Carter, for being her rock through it all. She also had the support of her ex-fiancé, singer NE-YO, with whom she shares two children. 'NE-YO was just showing up for me in a major way and just always asking and making sure everything was okay,' she recalled in a recent interview. 'He was like, 'Oh, you're gonna beat this.'' Her RHOA circle also showed up with love. Kandi Burruss, Cynthia Bailey, Porsha Williams, Shamea Morton, and Shereé Whitfield all supported. For Monyetta Shaw-Carter, breast cancer is real but not unbeatable. So why not celebrate? As the founder of Keep It Classy Nails , a mother of four, and a businesswoman, she wants Black women everywhere to trust their instincts, take care of themselves, and live on their own terms. 'I'm stepping into this new chapter with deeper gratitude, unstoppable faith, and a whole new glow,' she wrote on Instagram. 'This birthday is more than candles and cake…it's a celebration of life, a reflection of pain & purpose, of healing, and God's grace. I've faced one of the biggest battles of my life… and I WON!!!'
