Eminem's getting a grandson ... his pregnant daughter Hailie Jade Scott just revealed the sex of her first child.

Hailie and her husband, Evan McClintock, did a little gender reveal on Friday's episode of her podcast, "Just A Little Shady" ... popping a balloon filled with blue confetti.

The couple popped the balloon and exclaimed, "It's a boy!!!"

4:40 PM PT -- Howard King, Dr. Dre's attorney, tells TMZ ... "Mr. Sophy got some text messages in 2023 from an angry patient who had been mistreated, along with his entire family, by a self-proclaimed psychiatric expert. Nothing has changed since 2023 that would warrant this desperate filing and attempt for attention other than Mr. Young's refusal to drop his confidential efforts to have Sophy's license terminated by the Osteopathic Medical Board."

4:10 PM PT -- The judge has granted the TRO.

Dr. Dre's former psychiatrist isn't just suing him, he's downright terrified of him -- so much so, he's asking a judge to order the music mogul to stay away ... TMZ has learned.

Dr. Charles Sophy filed for a temporary restraining order Friday in L.A. County Court ... citing the alleged threats he says Dre texted him over the course of 18 months. Sophy, who had served as a marriage counselor for Dre and his now ex-wife Nicole during their divorce, wants the court to force Dre to stay 100 yards away from him and his 22-year-old son.

According to the docs, obtained by TMZ, he also wants Dre to stop contacting him altogether ... whether by phone, text or email. Sophy's fear is evident in the documents -- he says Dre knows where he lives, and has previously been inside his home.

Benzino and Eminem were among the first participators of the diss track-throwin' 2024 Rap Wars that saw Megan Thee Stallion vs. Nicki Minaj, Kendrick Lamar vs. Drake, and beyond ... but Benzino says he's serious about burying the beef. FOREVER.

He thinks it makes all the sense in the world for him and Eminem to be friends ... they're both in their golden years and need to break bread one good time for the culture, of course.

Benzino tells TMZ Hip Hop he was serious about the passionate congratulations he showered on Em in light of news Slim Shady's daughter Hailie Jade is expecting her first child.

T.I. has said his days of sweating on stage performing are OVER ... a conclusion that just so "happens" to coincide with winning a $71 million judgment!!!

T.I.P. chatted it up on Friday as he, Young Dro and Hustle Gang marauded through NYC,  and he insists his career switch-up is more motivated by his comedy career ... he's worked the circuit for years to shake the novelty act title -- and he's gonna cash in!!!

The hip hop megastar is still riding high off his family's lawsuit win -- dollmaker MGA Entertainment was found guilty of infringing on his teen pop group OMG Girlz brand -- but he's not disappearing from the limelight.

"Money!" It's Cardi B's 32nd birthday, and we've got all her hottest shots to celebrate the rapper's special day ... From booty-ful poolside pics to lookin' cool n' cute in crop tops, check out our gallery and see all the smokin' shots!

Cardi B gave herself an early birthday present with a lavish stay at a luxury short-term rental in Paris ... and the place looks fit for a queen.

Sources tell TMZ ... last week, Cardi B shacked up at a super exclusive Airbnb in Paris, a penthouse overlooking the Eiffel Tower.

We're told the place costs around $50,000 per night and is not typically listed for public bookings ... instead, it's generally only available for high-end clientele.

Kanye West's old GOOD Music bonds are hard to break -- just ask his day-one pal Consequence ... Ye footed the bill for his entire new project, no strings attached!!!

The Queens rapper just fired off his new album "Nice Doing Business With You" on his indie label 192 Records, and revealed on "Touré Show" Friday he simply woke up one day and saw Ye had wired fat stacks into his bank account!!!

Touré attempted to get Cons to spill the beans on just how much Ye forked over. Making albums ain't cheap, and a 7-figure payout seems to be about right for this line of work!!!

R. Kelly's daughter just made a bombshell accusation in the latest exposé about the disgraced Grammy Award winner -- claiming the "Bump & Grind" singer sexually abused her as a child.

While speaking in TVEI Network's new two-part documentary "Karma: A Daughter’s Journey." Kelly's daughter Abi, now 26, says the abuse occurred when she was 8 or 9 years old claiming she woke up to the singer touching her, and she pretended to be asleep.

She initially reported the abuse to her mother, Kelly's ex-wife Andrea, in 2009, and they filed a complaint as "Jane Doe" -- but the statute of limitations had run out.

Landon Barker is catching some flak online over a recent party ... with commenters blasting him about some Diddy jokes made by others at his 21st birthday party.

Here's the deal ... Landon and his friends celebrated his 21st at Harriet's in West Hollywood ... and eyebrow-raising clips from the celebration have surfaced.

At Harriet's, Landon reportedly ordered bottle service -- and the DJ at the joint sent out servers carrying bottles of baby oil with flashing lights inside ... a clear reference to the federal government's claim more than 1,000 bottles of baby oil were found in raids of Diddy's homes earlier this year.

We're told one of the servers tried to hand Landon a bottle of baby oil, which he refused.

"I'm supporting the president that's going to be the most pro-life president."

That's Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker throwing his weight behind Donald Trump ... while at a campaign event in Missouri, for U.S. Senator Josh Hawley, a buddy of the 3x Super Bowl champion.

"The [Pro-life] topic is the most crucial topic for me," 29-year-old Butker said during an appearance on FOX News' "The Ingraham Angle" on Thursday.

Malik Nabers is good enough to hit up a Travis Scott concert ... but the New York Giants rookie still isn't ready to return to the field after suffering a concussion two weeks ago.

Giants head coach Brian Daboll confirmed the news at a press conference on Friday ... saying while the rookie will be able to participate in some practice activities, he won't be cleared to play in their Week 6 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals.

"He won't make it," he said.

Kanye West is looking for a fresh start in Tokyo, despite refusing to put down real roots in Japan's capital city ... music journalist Touré claims.

The writer shared insight into Ye's new chapter abroad Friday, with Touré claiming the music mogul is putting all his energy into self-producing his new album, "Bully," from the confines of a hotel room.

From the sounds of it, Ye has been spending quite a bit of time in Tokyo for a while now ... though, he has yet to purchase a property in the metropolis.

Rihanna requested an album from GloRilla just 3 months ago, and the newly crowned “Queen Of Memphis” has delivered with lightning speed ... her debut album "Glorious" is here!!!

The album arrived on Friday and the CMG rapper is standing on biz with her fellow top female artists -- Megan Thee Stallion, Latto, Muni Long ... and an Auto-Tune assist from T-Pain!!!

Back in July, RiRi admitted it was contradictory to ask Glo for the album when fans feel she pretty much abandoned her own anticipated "R9" album.

Elon Musk unveiled his self-driving vehicles Cybercab and Robovan, in addition to the talking Optimus robot, at his "We, Robot" event last night ... leaving two of hip hop's biggest salespeople, Swae Lee and 2 Chainz, floored by humankind's potential future!!!

The Tesla CEO got all the cheers from Swae when he stepped center stage on the Warner Bros. lot in Burbank .... the Diamond-selling Rae Sremmurd rapper later hopped in the Cybercab, setting the destination to "New York."

On the ground floor, 2 Chainz had a full-blown conversation with Optimus -- they exchanged names, interest in sports, and the "Rich as F***" rapper even promised to BUY HIM once they become available on the market!!!

Kat Von D ain't happy Linkin Park's moved on from Chester Bennington ... saying bands who lose their lead singer shouldn't try to replace them -- and questioning if putting a woman on the mic is a gimmick.

The tattoo artist and TV personality stopped by "The Sailor Jerry" podcast ... where the host Matt Caughthran asked her about the band recently adding Emily Armstrong as their lead singer.

Kat -- a close friend of Chester, who passed away in 2017 -- says she thinks it's dumb when bands hire new lead singers 'cause they can't capture the magic of the original. She points to The Doors replacing Jim Morrison after his death ... a move she never understood.

Hilary Duff may have a number of chart-topping hits on her resume, but her kids are all about another pop star these days ... 2024's breakout sensation, Chappell Roan.
