Jim Jones Leaves Man Bloody After Clash On Escalator At Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport

Rapper Jim Jones defended himself during a violent altercation with two men at the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, which was captured on video and widely circulated online. 

The conflict unfolded as they descended on an airport escalator. Though the exact motive behind the clash remains unknown, the situation rapidly intensified into a physical confrontation. 

In footage obtained by TMZ, Jim Jones is visibly seen delivering punches, grabbing one of the men and tossing him down the escalator like a sack of potatoes, opening up a massive gash on the man’s head. 

Unfortunately, an older man was caught in the brawl as the escalator was going down. The senior citizen suffered a fall and showed signs of distress, sprawled out on the airport floor as a result. 

Despite the chaotic ordeal and attempts from onlookers, including a woman trying to halt the escalator, the skirmish continued until law enforcement intervened. 

Upon their arrival, police managed to separate the individuals involved. 

Jim Jones justified his actions to authorities and bystanders by explaining, “It’s two of them against me,” suggesting he was outnumbered and acted in self-defense.

Another individual involved appeared noticeably more agitated and required additional officers to restrain him fully. 

Details concerning potential arrests or charges have not been confirmed, as local law enforcement has not responded to inquiries regarding the incident.

Diddy Grazed By Stray Shot From Anuel AA Originally Aimed At Bad Bunny

Diddy and his ex Cassie Ventural recently became a punchline in Anuel AA’s latest single, which doubles as a diss toward BadBunny.

On his new release “Toki,” Anuel AA goes directly BadBunny by targeting his failed relationship with Kendall Jenner, which reportedly ended last December after less than a year. While the bar wasn’t necessarily an extensive triple or quadruple entendre, it was short and to the point. And that point being made by Anuel AA seemingly implies that BadBunny, like NeYo, is a “Diddy Jr.” and that he outshines him, like Phoenix Sun’s star player Devin Booker.

“Prendo la blicky y bota fuego igual que el sol de Phoenix (Oh-oh-oh-oh)/ Kendall dejó a Bad por lo mismo que Cassie a Diddy (Jaja),” Anuel AA raps.

In English, the bars translate to something along the lines of, “I turn on the blicky and it fires up like the Phoenix sun (Oh-oh-oh-oh)/Kendall left Bad for the same reason Cassie left Diddy.”

Not gonna lie, Anuel AA may have cooked a bit with the DBook reference, knowing how unbothered the NBA star is by BadBunny’s existence while, on the other hand Benito is pretty vexed by his. However, with the Diddy bar, brodie might’ve really screwed the pooch, no Diddy. Considering we all know how Twitter (X) users strive to find the receipts, it’s worth noting Anuel AA was literally posted up. Flexing his link up with Diddy as recently as last year in March.

Part of me is trying to make sense of why Anuel AA would think this was a good angle to take given the fact that the optics lead back to him. It’s like, why are you self-snitching and or throwing the rock only to hide your hand. Because the guilty by association s##t concerning the Diddy sexual assault lawsuits has been having real world consequences for folks. And on the other hand, if Anuel AA is right and BadBunny has been Bad Boy this whole time, why’d you wait til now to say anything?

Anyways, stream the full record above.

Is Kendrick Lamar A Woman Abuser? Sources Weigh In Amid Drake Beef

Is Kendrick Lamar a woman abuser? That question struck a chord with me, and I know it was deeply disturbing to many others. We see him as our shining prince of Blackness. He also represents the finer aspects of Hip-Hop, our own James Baldwin or Langston Hughes. The man has already won a Pulizer Prize.

So, does he beat women? I had to dig deep and talk to some of my most cherished sources to get to the bottom of this. We don’t know anything for certain, but I’m hearing that he’s absolutely not a woman abuser. According to my sources, he didn’t beat up his fiancée or wife, and he has no significant history of abuse. When you hear someone mention a crisis management team, it usually denotes a serious situation that tends to lead to bad press.

Crisis management is meant to mitigate bad press. When Drake used that word, it seemed official. And it might be. We really do not know; keeping it 100 percent real. I’m not saying one way or the other, but I did hit up a couple of first-rate sources, and none of them had any information whatsoever on Kendrick Lamar being an abusive partner. If he hired a team, somebody would likely know something, because that means it;s BIG BAD.

Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers was my least favorite Kendrick Lamar album. I thought it was genius and theatrical, but it just didn’t resonate with me on a personal level. That said, I know it was a deeply personal album for him that also made some revelations about his life. The consensus is that Drake listened to that album and he converted that into the record “Family Matters.” Whether that’s true is anyone’s guess, but that just seems to be the case.

Finally, I’ll say this: There’s a lot of trash out there. On both sides, there is a lot of garbage floating around the digital atmosphere. There are photoshopped pictures of Drake with a daughter (and it’s CLEARLY not real) and fake news reports of Kendrick Lamar beating on women in Vegas. There’s just so much trash out there that it is destroying the spirit of the rap battle.

What is real? What is fake? At this point, it’s anyone’s guess. I’m simply giving you the sources that I know, who are very reliable, honest and generally in the know. Also, I pray and hope that he’s not a woman abuser and that Drake isn’t a pedophile, because there’s so much crap on the internet about that, I won’t even write about it.

Police Swarm Drake’s Toronto Home After Another Wild Incident

Police returned to Drake’s Toronto home a day after a security guard was shot at his mansion. According to Global News anchor Tracy Tong, an intruder attempted to break into the Canadian star’s house on Wednesday (May 8).

The unidentified trespasser allegedly got into an altercation with security at the gates of Drake’s home. Security subdued the man and held him until police arrived.

Cops took the man into custody under the Mental Health Act. The intruder allegedly said he was “here to see Drake.”

The incident added to the Drake-related drama in Toronto. His security guard was seriously injured in a shooting outside his home on Tuesday (May 7).

Inspector Paul Krawczyk said the security guard remained in the hospital with life-threatening injuries. Police didn’t know the motive behind the shooting but were aware of Drake’s highly publicized beef with Kendrick Lamar.

Drake and Kendrick exchanged several diss tracks over the weekend. Their contentious battle erupted when Kendrick dissed the OVO rapper on Future and Metro Boomin’s “Like That” in March. Drake and Kendrick’s mud-slinging reached a fever pitch this past weekend. Both men accused their foe of sordid misdeeds, including Kendrick calling Drake a pedophile on “Not Like Us.”

Police said Drake’s security guard was “shot from a vehicle which then fled the scene.” Authorities responded to the shooting around 2 a.m. on Tuesday.

Investigators collected video evidence that captured the incident. Police acknowledged they were dealing with “video quality issues” regarding the footage.

“As we have information and we’re able to analyze video better then we’ll be able to provide more information,” Krawczyk said.

Police asked anyone living near Drake’s home for help in their investigation. Cops sought photos or videos of the suspects and vehicle.

Authorities encouraged anyone with information about the shooting to call 416-808-2510. Tipsters can also reach out anonymously by contacting Crime Stoppers at 416-222-TIPS or www.222tips.com.

Joe Budden Declares Drake “Unequivocally” Lost To Kendrick Lamar

Joe Budden was a trending Twitter (X) topic on Wednesday (May 8) for once again sharing his impassioned opinions on Hip-Hop culture. During the latest episode of The Joe Budden Podcast, the former Slaughterhouse rapper got into a spirited debate about the all-consuming Kendrick Lamar versus Drake beef.

At one point, Budden was screaming at the top of his lungs as he tried to drive home his point that Kendrick smoked Drake on every single track—from “euphoria” and “6:16 in LA” to “meet the grahams” and “Not Like Us.”

“He went from ‘Na Na Nah, I’m going on vacation’ to ‘I’m not replying no more,'” Budden says in the clip. “That was the fastest change of tone … he lost, unequivocally! A n#### took it from him!”

Budden has been speaking on the Kendrick Lamar and Drake feud since it intensified last week. On May 1, just a day after Kendrick unleashed “euphoria,” he unapologetically told Kanye West to stay out of it. West, of course, remixed Future & Metro Boomin’s single “Like That” featuring Kendrick Lamar that essentially kicked off the entire back-and-forth.

“Kanye, sit your f###### ass down somewhere,” Budden said.. “Mind your f###### business. This is not about you. This is some attention-seeking s### that you’re doing.

He went on to say, “Kanye has been trying to insert himself in this since the beginning. You had your shot. That n#### was gunning for you. Y’all all ran except for Pusha. It’s not smooth when it’s not your beef,” he added. “You are making this all about you when you had a shot already. Move! You are taking attention away from our main event.”

Kendrick Lamar and Drake have been dormant since the latter dropped “The Heart Part 6” on Sunday (May 5). Publications like Rolling Stone and Vulture have also declared Kendrick the “winner,” meanwhile Questlove begs to differ.

As The Roots drummer posted on Instagram, “Nobody won the war. This wasn’t about skill. This was a wrestling match level mudslinging and takedown by any means necessary—women & children (& actual facts) be damned. Same audience wanting blood will soon put up ‘rip’ posts like they weren’t part of the problem. Hip Hop is truly dead.”

Sukihana Says JT Looks Like “A Trans” On “Cocaine” Diss Track

Sukihana escalated her beef with JT by releasing a diss track titled “Cocaine” on Wednesday (May 8). The song reiterated cocaine abuse allegations against JT and bashed the City Girls rapper’s appearance.

“You a crunchy black long t#### b####, you got scabies/All that eczema you hiding under that coat, I know you hate it/You been hating on Caresha since a baby/You got booked three years, you was stealing out of Macy’s/I ain’t arguing with no hoe that’s f###### punks, hoe you crazy?/Girl, you foaming out your mouth, is it rabies?/I can tell by that white tongue, you eat booty gravy/Everybody in Miami say you suck dick lazy,” Sukihana rapped.

Sukihana accused JT of worshipping the devil and being jealous of Ice Spice. The controversial rapper/reality TV star referenced JT’s “pretty like a transgender” line from the song “No Bars” to troll JT’s relationship with Lil Uzi Vert.

“Demonic ass hoe, tell ’em how you worship Satan/Prayed to God through your bid, now you come home and you hate him?/Ol’ thieving ass angry beaver looking m###########/You was mad at Ice Spice ’cause your n#### wanna f### her/B####, you ain’t no scammer, you was boosting outta TJ Maxx/Coochie hole so wide, you gotta use your ass/You ain’t lying when you say you look like a trans/Your n#### only f### with you because you look like a man,” Sukihana rapped.

The diss track included a break in the raps in which Sukihana went on a scathing rant about JT.

“I don’t give a f### what these hoes gotta say about me, b####,” Sukihana said. “I know who I am. Y’all hoes be coked out and sucking dick right after it came out of another n#### ass. Cockeyed nipple deformed armadillo looking m########### thinking I don’t know your n####, b####. Yo n#### wanted to eat this sewer p#### right through my pants, hoe.”

Sukihana resumed rapping with more insults and threats in the second verse.

“When you was in the pen, you was f###### on a fiend/Eating coochie like a mukbang/You a m############ lie, talking ’bout who? Me?/Nah, b####, you gon’ see/P#### hoe, I’m right in these streets/With a cat this good, I keep a pistol on me/I got a beam for every bump on your lip/Got ’em stressed out, I am under their skin/Ol’ botched body bald eagle looking ass b####/With that 5 o’clock shadow, girl, shave that chin,” she rapped.

Sukihana closed out the song by repeating, “You ain’t no City Girl, you a s##### girl, and your man wanna come to the coochie world.” The diss track dropped days after JT bashed Sukihana on TikTok.

Metro Boomin Shows Original Creator Of “BBL Drizzy” Hella Sample Love

Metro Boomin has recognized the creator of the outlandish sample Incorporated into his recently released “BBL Drizzy” instrumental as as the popularity of the challenge continues to skyrocket.

Believe it or not, Metro had little bit of help in producing what could be the first-ever instrumental diss, which was released during targeting Drake and Kendrick Lamar’s ongoing beef.

What’s even more unbelievable is the fact that the assistance wasn’t from another producer but rather a rising social media comedian. A Twitter (X) user by the name of @KingWillonius revealed himself as the creator of the sample Metro used for the instrumental in a twee seeking credit over the weekend.

“That was dope that Metro Boomin sampled BBL Drizzy,” he wrote. “The fact that I, an unknown comedian made an impact in this historical rap beef is kinda cool. I wish he would’ve tagged me tho. It is what it is.”

Well as they say, a close mouth doesn’t get fed, or in this case, idle Twitter (X) fingers won’t get read, and since King Willonius spoke up, he got the recognition he was asking for. And not only did he get a direct response from Metro, the WE DON’T TRUST YOU architect took things a step further to ensure the creator received the credit he deserved.

“I wasn’t aware king but thank you for your contribution to history,” Metro wrote in part before he finished the tweet off by writing, “Y’all show this man some love [Prayer hands emoji].”

As the exchange continued, Metro even virtually dapped bro up after buddy thanked him fore his support in a follow-up reply he shared. To be honest, Metro might’ve just done more than just co-sign the creator, considering he’s already released several insane Motown parodies. He even made an incredibly funny “OV-Hoe” AI-generated Motown snippet following the release of Kendrick’s “Not Like Us” Drake diss.

Not to mention, Metro just upped the ante on the #BBLDrizzy song challenge by offering a $10,000 reward to the winner of the contest. The runner-up will also get production from Metro for the price of Free-99, so there’s really nothing to lose by creating a submission.

Check out the latest #BBLDrizzy challenge developments from Metro’s latest tweet below.

Live Nation Reveals Settlements In Wrongful Death Lawsuits Against Travis Scott & More

Nine of the 10 wrongful death lawsuits against Travis Scott, Live Nation and others were settled out of court. According to the Associated Press, Live Nation’s attorney Neal Manne informed a Texas court of the settlements at a hearing on Wednesday (May 8).

The settlements included a lawsuit filed by the family of 23-year-old Madison Dubiski, one of the 10 people killed in the Astroworld tragedy. Her family’s case was the first scheduled to go to trial. Jury selection was set to begin in May, but her family’s lawyer Noah Wexler said the case was “resolved in its entirety” at Wednesday’s hearing.

Terms of the settlements weren’t disclosed. Deals were reached after a judge denied Scott’s motion to be missed from the lawsuits. His lawyers claimed he wasn’t responsible for crowd safety at the 2021 Astroworld Festival.

“No one disputes that tragedy struck the Astroworld Festival,” his attorneys argued. “But promoting and performing at a concert do not equate to the power to control a crowd or to design a venue safely. Basic tort principles prevent imposing liability on the Scott Defendants for a tragedy arising from forces legally controlled by others.”

The family of 9-year-old Ezra Blount was the lone holdout in settling the wrongful death lawsuits against Scott and others involved in the Astroworld Festival. Blount was the youngest victim killed in the crowd crush at the infamous event.

“This case is ready for trial,” the Blount family’s lawyer Scott West told the court.

Live Nation and its fellow defendants claimed they weren’t ready for trial. Attorneys for both sides were scheduled to meet next week to determine a potential trial start date.

Scott and Live Nation still faced roughly 2,400 cases regarding injuries from the Astroworld tragedy. A grand jury declined to indict Scott on criminal charges over the deadly event in 2023.

Future & Gunna’s Beef Is Brewing

A new rap beef emerged amid Drake and Kendrick Lamar’s highly publicized feud. Future and Gunna appeared ready for battle as the two will compete with new projects dropping on Friday (May 10).

Last month, Gunna announced his One of Wun album. Days before the album’s release, Future subliminally dissed Gunna on X (formerly known as Twitter). Future crashed his fellow Atlanta artist’s spotlight with plans to drop a mixtape on the same day as One of Wun.

“F### yo album S### ain’t slappin like my MIXTAPE,” Future wrote. “MAY TENTH. MIXTAPE PLUTO.”

Gunna responded, “Turn this s### bac up Notch……! F## What These boys talkin bout.”

It was unclear why Future targeted Gunna, but the Freebandz boss played a key role in the sprawling beef dominating Hip-Hop over the past few months. Future and Metro Boomin’s album We Don’t Trust You ignited the rap war against Drake. The project featured the hit single “Like That,” which famously included Kendrick’s opening salvo in his battle against Drake.

Future also dissed Drake on the album, but the lyrics weren’t as blatant as Kendrick’s bars. Future and Metro doubled down on attacking Drake by releasing the follow-up album We Still Don’t Trust You, which featured The Weeknd and A$AP Rocky joining the lyrical assault on Drake. Rick Ross jumped in the mix by dissing Drake on a non-album cut titled “Champagne Moments.”

Drake fired back with his diss track “Push Ups” and zeroed in on Kendrick with “Taylor Made Freestyle.” The battle heated up when Kendrick unleashed his diss tracks “Euphoria” and “6:16 in LA.” Drake attempted to take control with the response “Family Matters,” but Kendrick quickly fired back at the Canadian star with two more vicious songs: “Meet the Grahams” and “Not Like Us.” Drake was forced to be more defensive when he dropped “The Heart Part 6,” which was the last song in his back-and-forth with K. Dot as of Wednesday (May 8).

Check out some of the fan reactions to Future and Gunna’s emerging beef below.

Cardi B Snaps On Fan Threatening To Troll Her Over Sophomore Album

Fans of Cardi B have been waiting for the Grammy Award winner to release her sophomore album since Invasion of Privacy came out in 2018. Some Bardi Gang members seemed to be getting impatient with their favorite rapper.

“Cardi if that album doesn’t come before summer you better just stay off this app because if so I personally will make sure every edgy BG post is PLASTERED into the top of every single refresh you pull,” an X user wrote on Wednesday (April 8).

In response to that threat, Cardi B tweeted, “B#### [it’s] 7 am… S###.” The @sticikilysneaki account then backtracked by posting, “I just love your music ok I’m sorry.” That apology did not stop Cardi B from firing another round at the social media user.

“I’m looking at your page and you [are] insulting [artists] I work with. You [are] not asking, you [are] TELLING ME WHAT TO DO,” Cardi tweeted as a clapback.

She continued, “I don’t know who raising y’all but I ain’t tell my momma what to do so nobody tells me what to do, talking bout ‘better.’ I’ll get pregnant right now and tell you [to] go f## urself and give you s###. I said I’m dropping this year right? So s###.”

Cardi B has released two songs in 2024 so far. The promotional single “Like What (Freestyle)” dropped on March 1. She followed that track with “Enough (Miami)” on March 15. “Enough (Miami)” peaked at No. 9 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” Breaks Its Own Spotify Streaming Record

It appears the general public has chosen a winner in the Kendrick Lamar versus Drake battle through streaming numbers. Lamar’s “Not Like Us” diss track continues to rack up monumental plays on Spotify.

According to ChartData, “Not Like Us” surpassed its own record for the biggest single-day U.S. Spotify streams for a Hip-Hop song. The Mustard-produced hit added another 6.81 million streams on Tuesday (May 7).

Kendrick Lamar already broke the record on Monday (May 6), totaling 6.59 million streams. The pgLang co-founder eclipsed Drake and Lil Baby’s “Girls Want Girls” from 2021. That collaboration peaked with 6.15 million streams.

“Not Like Us” dropped on Saturday (May 4). Kendrick Lamar’s club-friendly single arrived at the tail-end of a week-long lyrical back-and-forth between the Pulitzer Prize winner and Drake. The track quickly shot to No. 1 on Spotify’s Daily Top Songs USA chart.

Kendrick Lamar also has the No. 3, No. 6 and No. 7 entries on the Daily Top Songs USA rankings. Additional Drake-directed diss songs titled “euphoria,” “Like That” and “meet the grahams” hold those Top 10 positions, respectively.

The 36-year-old Californian has gained traction outside the United States, too. “Not Like Us” controls the No. 1 slot on Spotify’s Daily Top Songs Global chart with 11.85 million streams. Plus, “euphoria” amassed 7.43 million streams to take No. 4.

Boxer Ryan Garcia Cleared On Doping Charges, Drops Devin Haney Diss Song

Veteran boxing reporter Dan Rafael reported on Wednesday that controversial boxer Ryan Garcia has been cleared of a potential positive drug test for 19-Norandrosterone, a metabolite derived from the banned substance nandrolone. Initially, Garcia tested positive for the metabolite, but subsequent analysis using Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry (IRMS) confirmed the results to be negative.

However, Garcia faced further scrutiny as he also tested positive for the banned substance ostarine in samples collected on April 19 and April 20, surrounding his recent victory over Devin Haney. Garcia’s team disputed these findings and requested a test of a B-sample, with the results still pending. According to Rafael, these samples are scheduled to be tested on May 22.

Garcia has publicly denied using any performance-enhancing drugs. On Twitter, he responded to the allegations, claiming his innocence and attributing the accusations to a misunderstanding. “THEY TRIED BUT NO LIE STANDS,” he said on Twitter,” “PRAISE GOD.”

Ryan Garcia Boasts He Was “High As F*ck” During Devin Haney Fight 

Despite the controversy, Garcia defeated Haney by majority decision, marking Haney’s first professional loss in 32 bouts. The fight, which was for Haney’s WBC super lightweight title, saw Garcia ineligible to win the belt after missing weight by three pounds.

In response to the drug test findings, Garcia provocatively stated that he would allow his next opponent to use performance-enhancing drugs. “I will let the next man I fight fight me with steroids,” he said. “I will eat only oranges for a month straight and destroy him.”

Rafael noted that there is no allowable threshold for ostarine, meaning any detection in Garcia’s B-sample would affirm a positive test.

Haney has since reacted to Garcia’s claims on social media. “Levels high enough to test positive.. obviously it would have an effect.. u dirty b##ch,” Haney said.

Garcia continued his jokes on Haney.

This development continues to unfold as the boxing community awaits further results and responses.

Meanwhile, Garcia has dropped diss song “Haney Pack” on his opposition.

Drake & Kendrick Lamar Battle For Rap Supremacy As Their Boss Fights For $149M Bonus 

While Drake and Kendrick Lamar are embroiled in a vicious lyrical battle their boss is fighting for a whopping $149 million payout. 

Both artists’ labels are under the umbrella of Universal Music Group whose CEO Lucian Grainge is under the microscope. An influential advisory firm is reportedly scruitinzing his bonus and look set to urge shareholders to reject his “excessive” compensation package. 

Grainge, whom Kanye West referred to as Drake’s “rich baby daddy,” in a recent interview, is at risk of losing the package, which included a share-based bonus of almost $100 million.  

Glass Lewis says such bonuses “undermine the integrity of a company’s incentive system.” Grainge’s payout will be on the agenda for shareholders at the annual meeting on May 16. 

Meanwhile, UMG responded to a rumor that they intervened in the beef between Drake and Kendrick Lamar. A viral blind report circulating online claimed UMG asked K. Dot and The Weeknd to squash the beef, fearing Drake was losing the battle. However, a source rejected the rumor, insisting the label would never intervene in rapper beef. 

However, as Grainge fights to keep his multimillion-dollar bonus, Drake and Kendrick continue to dominate the charts. Their respective diss tracks are set to rack up a combined 250 million streams across all platforms in the United States alone. The numbers reportedly account for around 20 percent of all streams on the Billboard Hot 100. 

Fat Joe Responds To Chris Broussard Dissing Him On FS1

Fat Joe’s name came up during a conversation about the New York Knicks on FS1’s First Things First. Sports commentator Chris Broussard used the Bronx native in an analogy to downplay Knicks guard Jalen Brunson’s star power.

“I’m not falling for this because he does it in New York versus Sacramento, that he’s going to be a superstar,” Chris Broussard stated about Jalen Brunson. 

Additionally, Broussard said, “That’s like saying Fat Joe is a top 5 rapper of all time. Fat Joe is dope. Fat Joe has some anthems and classics, but he’s not Top 5. Jalen Brunson is dope, but he’s not a superstar yet.”

A clip of Chris Broussard’s rant made its way to the X social media platform. Joe got wind of what the TV personality had to say. In response, he tweeted, “I think I caught a stray [face with tears of joy emoji].”

Last week, Joe declared Jalen Brunson is close to being the greatest New York Knicks player ever. The “All the Way Up” hitmaker has been a vocal, diehard Knicks fan for a long time.

Fat Joe has appeared on Chris Broussard and Rob Parker’s The Odd Couple podcast. A 2019 episode included Joe discussing the GOAT debate in the NBA and Hip-Hop.

Future Teases New Mixtape Set To Drop Following Kendrick Lamar Vs Drake Battle

The historic three-month rap battle between Kendrick Lamar and Drake began with a verse on Future and Metro Boomin’s We Don’t Trust You. The rapper/producer duo followed that album with We Still Don’t Trust You.

It appears Future will release another project soon. The Atlanta-raised Freebandz frontman took to X to tease that another body of work could arrive this Friday (May 10).

“F### yo album s### ain’t slappin like my MIXTAPE,” Future tweeted on Wednesday (May 8). A short time later, the 40-year-old rhymer added, “MAY TENTH [sneezing face emoji]… MIXTAPE PLUTO.”

Future and Metro Boomin dropped We Don’t Trust You on March 22. We Still Don’t Trust You then hit DSPs on April 12. Both albums contained shots at Drake from multiple artists, including Kendrick Lamar.

Drake fired back at his foes on April 19’s “Push Ups” record. Eleven days later, Kendrick Lamar blasted the OVO leader with “Euphoria.” The two Grammy winners exchanged more diss tracks from May 3 through May 5.
 
Future’s longtime production partner, Metro Boomin, has also aimed at Drake with the #bbldrizzybeatgiveaway challenge. Unsigned rappers and musicians from around the world performed over Metro’s “BBL DRIZZY” for a chance to win $10,000.

News Anchor Accidentally Calls Drake “R####” On Live TV

Kendrick Lamar accusing Drake of being a sexual predator on multiple diss tracks may have been a very effective tactic. An ABC7 New York anchor unintendedly called the OVO boss a “r####” instead of “rapper” on live television.

ABC7 New York’s Bill Ritter covered the news story of a shooting near Drake’s Toronto home. The newscaster likely made a huge Freudian slip. The gaffe quickly spread across social media.

“Lots of questions tonight about a security guard who was shot outside the mansion of the r####… rapper, I should say, Drake, in Toronto,” Bill Ritter told the TV audience.

The battle between Kendrick Lamar and Drake led to Lamar referring to the Canadian entertainer and his OVO crew as sex offenders. In addition, Lamar warned other celebrities to stay away from Drake for safety reasons.

“Him and Weinstein should get f##### up in a cell for the rest of their life,” Kendrick Lamar rapped on “meet the grahams.” In addition, Lamar’s “Not Like Us” includes the lyrics, “And Baka got a weird case, why is he around? Certified Lover Boy? Certified pedophiles.”

Drake responded on “The Heart Part 6” by saying, “Speakin’ of anything with a child, let’s get to that now. This Epstein angle was the s### I expected.” He also said, “If I was f###### young girls, I promise I’d have been arrested. I’m way too famous for this s### you just suggested.”

Jim Jones Escapes Charges Following Airport Escalator Brawl  

Jim Jones won’t be facing legal action after a wild brawl on an airport escalator left a man covered in blood. 

Capo claimed he acted in self-defense after being outnumbered by two men during the altercation at Miami airport earlier this month. Cops say surveillance video confirms his account, according to TMZ. Furthermore, none of the men wish to press charges.  

Despite the viral footage, Jones claims the incident began while they were still on the plane, per the police report via TMZ. Jones accused one of the men, James Dos Santos, of pushing him after he removed his belongings from the overhead compartment before the plane stopped.

Jones told cops Dos Santos apologized after he grabbed his arm and warned him about his behavior. Meanwhile, another passenger, Alexander Lekht, began screaming at the rapper, but Jones declined to take the matter further.  

Nonetheless, according to the police report, Lekht followed Jones and tried to provoke him into reacting. Lekht even tried to make him flinch, which Jones ignored the first time. However, Jones reacted after Lekht did it a second time while riding the escalator.  

Jones says that he intended to detain Lekht until authorities arrived, but Lekht began hitting him, and then Dos Santos joined in

According to the outlet, cops say Jim Jones’ account is backed up by the evidence.  Lekht was taken to hospital for the injuries to his face. While Jones sustained some facial bruising, he declined to take the matter further.  

Meanwhile, after footage of the brawl went viral, 50 Cent trolled Jones on social media. He joked that a senior citizen injured in the melee was out to get revenge.

Ryan Garcia Boasts He Was “High As F*ck” During Devin Haney Fight 

Ryan Garcia still maintains he was not using banned substances against Devin Haney in their recent fight but now admits to being “high as f###” during the bout. 

After a controversial build up to the fight, Garica’s brutal victory was overshadowed when he reportedly tested positive for the banned performance-enhancing drug Ostarine. 

During a recent appearance on The Fully Tilted podcast, Garcia insisted he did not use the prohibited substance. The 25-year-old also confirmed he recently requested to have his “B” samples tested. While he denied taking Ostarine, Garcia bragged that he was high when he beat champion Haney.  

“If I were on steroids, I would’ve been in way better shape,” Garcia maintained. “It was literally drinking every day, smoking weed. I didn’t stop not even until the f###### day of the fight. And I got in there high as f### and I beat his ass.” 

Furthermore, Garcia claimed Haney admitted he had never been “outclassed” in such fashion. “It was a walk in the f###### park. I had harder fights in sparring. It was not hard at all,” he added. “Steroids didn’t help that, brother.” 

Cam’ron Suggests Ryan Garcia Was On Cocaine Ahead Of Haney Flight

Ryan Garcia openly discussed being high and smoking weed ahead of the Haney clash which went down on smoker’s holiday 4/20 (April 20.) However, his pre-fight antics and bizarre conspiracy theories led to accusations he was using cocaine.  

Cam’ron and Ma$e weighed in on the topic following the boxer’s disturbing claims in a Twitter Spaces chat before last month’s fight.  

“This got yola written all over it,” Cam said during an episode of their It Is What It Is show. “Yola, b##### sugar, nose candy. That [sniffs]… Yeah, Snow White, Becky. This got this written all over it.”   

Ma$e said he wanted to treat the subject seriously and refused to joke about it. “I thought this was very, very alarming and that something was really wrong,” he added. 

UMG Deny Urging Drake & Kendrick Lamar To Squash Beef Because Drizzy Was Losing

Drake and Kendrick Lamar were being pressured to settle their differences by their label UMG, according to a rumor circulating online. 

However, Universal Music Group was forced to deny the speculation after the rumor went viral. According to a blind item doing the rounds on social media, UMG believes Drake is losing the lyrical war and asked Kendrick Lamar and The Weeknd to squash the beef, but K. Dot refused.  

Furthermore, the report claims the label held a Zoom meeting with all the relevant parties in which K. Dot was told to clarify that Drake isn’t a pedophile, as the accusations were affecting the profits of UMG, Nike and other brands tied to Drake. 

Nonetheless, a source told TMZ that the rumor is completely false. The rep also claimed the label would never intervene in rapper beef. Additionally, the source claimed UMG views business as separate from the back and forth between Drake and Kendrick Lamar.  

It’s hardly surprising that UMG refuses to intervene, as the beef has led to a historic rise in streaming numbers. The pair are set to rack up a combined 250 million streams across all platforms in the United States alone. The numbers reportedly account for around 20 percent of all streams on the Billboard Hot 100. 

While UMG refuses to mediate between camps, WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels believes he can help Drake and Kendrick Lamar settle their differences.  

He recently invited them to appear on NXT’s weekly television show after K. Dot referenced Michaels on the diss track “Not Like Us.” 

Plies Roasts “No Condom” Donald Trump Over Alleged Stormy Daniels Spanking 

Plies has been outspoken in his disdain for Donald Trump and those who champion him, especially his Black supporters, so it was no surprise that the rapper got a kick out of Stormy Daniels’ testimony about the former president in the hush money trial. 

On Tuesday (May 7), the adult film star recalled explicit details of an alleged encounter with Trump in 2026. Daniels told the court of the hotel room liaison, revealing that Trump was rude and arrogant. She suggested someone should “spank” him before “swatting him right on the butt.” Daniels also alleged they had consensual sex without a condom. 

Plies shared his reaction to Daniels’ testimony on social media. Posting a video on X (formerly Twitter) Plies joked that he was so upset he was about to block everybody as he had been “out in the field all day” and had only just heard the news.  

According to Plies, he’s figured out why so many people, particularly men, back Trump. “I knew it was something fishy,” he declared. “Y’all muthafucking like Trump cause y’all like to be muthafucking spanked too.” 

Plies erupted into fits of laughter recalling how Stormy Daniels said Trump didn’t use a condom. 

“And that’s the other reason y’all muthafuckin like him. Cause y’all will f### anything raw just like no muthafuckin ‘no condom Donald.’” he added.  

“So Y’all Wasn’t Gone Tell Me ‘No Condom Donald’ Asked Stormy Daniels To “SPANK” Him!!!!” he wrote.  

Meanwhile, the Joe Biden-Kamala Harris campaign recently used Kendrick Lamar’s “euphoria” to diss Trump. The @BidenHQ social media accounts hared a video trolling Trump with K. Dot’s track as the soundtrack. 

T.I.’s Son King Gets Response From Julio Foolio After Issuing Boxing Ring Challenge

T.I.’s boisterous son King has been hard at work, staying consistent with his boxing training. Now it appears Florida rapper Julio Foolio could be his first amateur rap opponent he’s set his sights on.

After a clip of his recent training session went viral, King took to social media to address some of the backlash the clip caused. In a video post he shared which he appears to have recorded in the studio, King directly called out Foolio for allegedly talking trash about his training regimen. Along with inviting Foolio to test his gangster and step into the ring, King addressed the numerous individuals coming for him since he posted his workout.

“Hey I really don’t do too much talking and Julio Foolio, get yo b###h ass in the boxing ring n###a,” King said in part. “Want to speak on me. And I hear a lot of these n###as got so much to say when a n###a go viral, but when I tell them to go get in that boxing ring everybody wanna be quiet. Come on, bro.”

As he concluded, King appeared to compare himself to former world heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson, despite having no actual professional record to back up the claim.

“I ain’t going to lie, I’m on some Mike Tyson s### I’m mad,” he said. “I’ve just been angry lately. I’m ready to get in there and punch somebody. And I’m waiting on one of these b#### ass young ass rappers to fix a mouth to get in that boxing ring.”

Though his response was brief, Foolio didn’t appear to entertain the bout, or any confrontation with King. Instead, he appeared to warn against it, not for his own sake, but rather for the protection of King.

”I barley post or troll nomo King find u something productive to do before u be watching Netflix In heaven wit our lord and savior,” Foolio wrote in his response he shared on his Instagram Story.

What do y’all think? Should King take Foolio’s advice and dead this before it even starts? Or should he take the Benzino approach and challenge yet another rapper to a bout until he gets an opponent worthy of stepping into the ring?

JT Explains Why She & Lil Uzi Vert Have Yet To Release Any Music Together

Even though JT has confirmed that she and her boo, Lil Uzi Vert, have a significant amount of musical material recorded with each other, they have yet to release any of it. Now, she’s explaining why.

In case you missed it, JT and “Switch” rapper Sukihanna were going back and forth on Twitter (X) nearly all weekend—but it was overshadowed by Kendrick Lamar and Drake’s situation.

In the midst of trading shots with Sukihanna, JT went off on a fan who appeared to suggest that not even her Lil Uzi Vert supports her career. In addition to being accused of using Nicki Minaj’s Barbz fanbase as a popularity boost for herself, the fan accused JT of attempting to leverage her relationship with Uzi the same way. Judging by JT’s reply, that fan’s theory absolutely did not fly with her.

“It’s because he actually was paying for my studio time when me & my label was at odd’, we have songs as well,” JT wrote in part addressing her and Uzi’s lack of available music together. I wasn’t a solo artist then it didn’t make since. Idk how ppl I block page pop up but I’m sick of this page speaking on me & don’t know wtf they be talking about.

“FYI he barely promotes his own music I drive a RR as an everyday car because of him trust me a story post won’t make me no never mind.”

Outside of the recent leaked banger “Pop It” intact with JT’s feature, which was likely intended for last year on Uzi’s chart-topping album The Pink Tape, the couple have appeared on very few records together throughout the duration of their on-again-off-again relationship.

And even though JT has revealed she and Lil Uzi have a decent stash in the vault, it doesn’t seem like she has plans for releasing the music anytime soon. Or maybe she does, she just got too caught up in flexing the Rolls Royce Uzi bought for her. We’ll give her the benefit of the doubt and assume it’s the latter, at least in this case.
