International tensions took center stage as the U.S. and Iran exchanged military strikes near the Strait of Hormuz while both sides insisted a ceasefire is still in place. According to U.S. Central Command, American naval ships intercepted what were described as unprovoked Iranian attacks and responded with targeted strikes, while Iran accused the U.S. of violating the truce first—raising global concerns due to the Strait’s importance as a major oil shipping route. On the home front, Real Housewives of Atlanta star Drew Sidora opened up about the very real financial stress surrounding her divorce from Ralph Pittman, revealing fears that the Georgia home they once shared could face foreclosure. Court documents show a significant income disparity between the two, and recent rulings have ordered Sidora to vacate the home, intensifying public conversation around finances, custody, and fairness in high‑profile divorces.  The show also welcomed music royalty as legendary R&B singer Stephanie Mills joined the RSMS crew for a wide‑ranging conversation about her career, from starring as the original Dorothy in The Wiz to her close friendship with Michael Jackson, whom she strongly defended against long‑standing allegations. Mills reflected on longevity, legacy, and why performing for loyal fans still matters decades into her career. Closing out the episode, Chris Brown marked a major moment with the release of his 12th studio album, Brown—a 27‑track project packed with high‑profile collaborations. Ahead of the release, Brown shared a heartfelt message thanking fans for sticking with him through a long journey and urging them to enjoy the work he poured into the album, which officially dropped at midnight and immediately sparked buzz across social media. Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/rickey-smiley-morning-show See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
