‘The Blood Is Rushing to My Head, Lawd’: Masika Shuts Down the ’Gram with Her Seductive Pics

“Hot Girl Summer” is in full effect for former “Love & Hip Hop Hollywood” and “Growing Up Hip Hop” reality diva Masika Kalysha, who had fans twisting their heads and turning their phones with her new seductive post on June 26.

Kalysha posed in black lingerie and lay upside down, writing, “I’m shadowbanned again… what a shame 🙄,” for the gallery of photos.

Fans were left thirsting in the comments section over her physique.

“The blood is rushing to my head, Lawd, how you stay like that for so many poses?!”

“You are a Beautiful Woman!! ❤️🔥 These pics look hot as ever on IG!! I don’t know how you do it, but these pics are amazing!! FIRRREEEE!!”

“Who else had to turn their phone upside down to see it properly?”

Kalysha’s curvy figure was flaunted in the photos, revealing that the mother of 4-year-old Khari Barbi Maxwell by rapper Fetty Wap keeps herself in shape despite the pandemic.

While she received favorable views for her recent post, the 35-year-old has been criticized for her figure in the past by her followers.

On May 27, Kalysha wore a pink lace crop top and nude underwear, which left her stomach exposed.

Fans criticized the television personality for making a video in her underwear and accused her of having ruined liposuction and surgery.

“That body is Botched 😳.”

“Yoo, why is her belly button like near touching her breasts …. she should be on botched 🤷🏽‍♀️.”

“Naked to do that😫😱 body looks horrible surgery at its worst.”

In what appears to be a now-deleted Instagram post, Kalysha addressed critics in her comments section in another March Instagram video of her sheltering in place.

While trying a natural hairstyle, Kalysha showcased her figure in a lace burnt-orange two-strap crop top and a pair of lounge shorts.

She again was called out about her midsection, and she replied to social media users about making fun of her, implying that she was comfortable in her skin.

“This stomach housed a future queen for 9 months and snapped back in 3 days, no surgery, and went straight to work. I love this stomach,” she wrote.

“While ur here hating from a fake page, I’m 97% certain that you can’t see ur feet when you look down,” she concluded her rant.

Whether folks love or hate her physique, Kalysha continuously shows off her body on the ‘Gram unbothered by how people view her alleged surgically enhanced body.

Independent journalism still matters.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
