Chris Brown emptied his clip with the Quavo diss “Weakest Link.” It didn’t take the Migo long to clap back, hitting Bris with “Over Hoes & Bitches,” which featured the late Takeoff. Quavo just dropped another Chris Brown diss, ‘Over H*es & B*tches’ (ft. Takeoff) 😬 “Crackhead Michael Jackson, b*tch, you better beat it, n****” […]
The Future/Metro Boomin featuring Kendrick Lamar track “Like That” kicked the Drake vs. Everbody beef into high gear. It was also a number-one hit. Drake’s retort, “Push Ups,” may end up doing better. It will be tough for any non-Taylor Swift song to top the chart for the next few weeks. But “Like That” and […]

A few years back, the notorious Chiraq complex known as O-Block was sold to an unnamed property group. The speculation was that the complex would be redeveloped and the current residents priced out. That hasn’t happened. But the price to rent a place in Parkway Gardens did just get a significant increase. As you can […]
Based on is latest IG post, there’s a good chance that Druski bagged Rubi Rose. “DRUBI ❤️,” he wrote next to a photo of him and Rose sharing an intimate moment in a tropical setting. The photo sparked plenty of talk online, and so did some thirst-traps that Rubi posted on that same day. The […]
50 Cent has already dipped his toes into the Drake vs. Everybody beef, supporting Drizzy when he went after Rick Ross. That shouldn’t be a surprise since Ross is Fif’s perma-opp. But what about when Drake goes after Kendrick? It turns out Fif is all for that, too. Fif responded to Drake’s AI-aided ‘Taylor Made […]

If you need proof that Taylor Swift is the biggest musical star since at least Michael Jackson, she is now in the middle of a Drake-Kendrick Lamar beef she has absolutely nothing to do with. Even better proof is that her new album, The Tortured Poets Society, is set to do a minimum of 2 […]

It’s been seven days since Drake dissed Kendrick Lamar for the first time and about 12 hours since he hit him again. So far no response from Kendrick.

Drake got creative while doubling up on dissing Kendrick Lamar. In ‘Taylor Made Freestyle,‘ Drake uses AI to have West Coast legends 2Pac and Snoop Dogg encourage Kendrick to diss Drake back while not-so-subtly insulting. Then Drake jumps on in his own voice and explains that Taylor Swift is Kendrick Lamar’s new taskmaster and why […]
Drake is beefing with the whole rap game. Taylor Swift is beefing with Kim Kardashian. But the most intense beef out there is Chris Brown vs. Quavo. Last night, Brown went all the way off on the Migo on “The Weakest Link.” [embedded content] Can’t wait to see the day that you back up all […]
Drake is crazy for this. He’s further baiting Kendrick Lamar by dropping an AI-aided diss track “Taylor Mode Freestyle” in which he has 2Pac and Snoop Dogg give K.Dot a pep talking, encouraging him to get out of his funk and respond to Drake. Drake is wild for using AI Tupac, Snoop Dogg, and Kendrick […]
It’s been six days since Drake dissed Kendrick Lamar on “Push Ups,” and Kendrick has yet to respond. This is surprising as Drake’s diss was pretty effective, and Kendrick has a reputation to keep up. There may be a reason for his reticence. According to Mal, Kendrick’s has an album coming in May, and he […]
Earlier this week, the folks at 20v1 accused DaBaby of running off with the 20K they paid him without doing the segment. DaBaby didn’t deny it. “I ain’t run off n*gga I walked off. You know why too n*gga. Be glad that’s the way it went & tighten up,” he typed. He also revealed there […]

It turns out that Ross didn’t make the accusation just […]

For the last couple of years, NBA YoungBoy had been house-arrested in Grave Digger Mountian, Utah. It seemed like he was enjoying himself out west. He lived in a glass mansion, got adopted by a local family, and hung out at Target. That’s probably all coming to an end. Earlier this week, Youngboy was hit […]
50 Cent is probably aware that the talk surrounding Diddy’s sex trafficking allegation has been recently trumped by the Drake vs. Everybody beef.
