Wack 100 Reveals The Winner Of The Kendrick Lamar & Drake Beef

Wack 100 is known for commenting on all things hip-hop. Although there are some people who couldn’t care less about his opinion, there are others who are always intrigued by what he has to say. Overall, Wack is someone who operates out on the West Coast. Having said that, it should come as no surprise that he would be a fan of Kendrick Lamar. Moreover, he has a lot of expectations for Lamar as it pertains to being a representative for Los Angeles. This is especially true now that he is going against Canada, in Drake.

After Kendrick dropped off “Euphoria,” DJ Akademiks went live on Rumble, Twitch, and YouTube. During this stream, he called up Wack 100 who wanted to deliver his take on what went down. Interestingly enough, Wack was not all that impressed with the Kendrick record. He was hoping for something that was more “West Coast” in terms of its presentation. Additionally, he felt like a lot of the things Kendrick said had already been stated by the likes of Pusha T.

Wack 100 Weighs In

DJ Akademiks was very quick to agree with Wack 100. Of course, Ak has been on Drake’s side since the very beginning of the feud, so this should come as a surprise to absolutely no one. For now, it does seem like fans are split on this. Although both rappers have huge fanbases, and regardless of who says what, it feels like many have already chosen their side. In fact, this beef is very much like politics in that aspect.

Bryce James Roasts Darvin Ham With TikTok RePost

Darvin Ham, who has been on the hot seat all season, is reportedly likely to be let go by the Los Angeles Lakers. His departure, after the Lakers’ 4 – 1 series defeat at the hands of the Denver Nuggets, seems all but certain. Laker fans, who have been roasting and complaining about Ham’s performance all season, are often seen expressing their dissatisfaction with his actions on the sideline or his habit of keeping his hands in his pocket. Ham has a reputation for misusing or not using his timeouts at all. This sentiment has been echoed by even LeBron James’ youngest son, Bryce James, who has been drawn into the conversation about Ham’s future. 

Darvin Ham, the likely scapegoat for the Laker’s struggles, has been the subject of much criticism. The Denver Nuggets were just too much, even for a team with LeBron and Anthony Davis. It was the little things that killed the Lakers and role players making mistakes. Coaching, with Ham at the helm, played a big part in their struggles, but the blame should probably be spread a bit. Bryce James reposted a TikTok roasting Darvin Hams’s performance, the Lakers coach, with a simple meme. With all the uncertainty around Lebron’s future with the Lakers and what the organization is going to do, a simple meme is appreciated.

Bryce James Reposts “Arthur” Meme To Roast Darvin Ham

Bryce James reposted a TikTok with a mem of the cartoon character Arthur with his hands in his pockets. The above caption says, “The Nuggets are on a 15-0 run,” then labels Arthur as Darvin Ham. The mem is straight out of Laker’s social media playbook. They have been sharing memes like this all year. Darvin Ham has been on the hot seat all season, and fans are about to more than likely get their wish. At least the Darvin Ham memes will stop. Laker fans will have to find new ways to disparage their next coach.

LeBron is making decisions about his future and taking his time. He has two years left on his current deal with a $50 million player option next year. He reportedly wants to play with his son Brinny. The Lakers are open to the possibility of drafting Bronny in the 2024 NBA draft to secure LeBron’s services. Overall, the Lakers and LeBron’s future is up in the air.

Key Takeaways From the Ninth Day of Trump’s Historic Hush Money Trial

First Day of Trump Trial Ends After Opening Statements

Whelp, another first went down in the first trial of a former POTUS. Donald Trump received his first punishment from Judge Juan Merchan in the New York hush money trial for defying the judge’s gag order, resulting in fines totaling $9,000 for nine violations. The judge’s written order also cautioned the former president that further breaches could result in imprisonment, highlighting the gravity of the trial’s significance from a historical standpoint. 

During the trial on Tuesday, jurors listened to testimony from Keith Davidson, the attorney who orchestrated the hush money agreements involving Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal. Davidson recounted the stresses of working with Trump’s former fixer, Michael Cohen, in the final days of the 2016 campaign to secure funds, allegedly to silence Daniels. Remember Daniels said she had sex with the married Trump, who was running for President and was reeling from the salacious Access Hollywood grab em by the you know what scandal. Here are some additional takeaways from today’s proceedings:

Jurors were briefed on the financial dealings surrounding the Stormy Daniels payment

Gary Farro, Cohen’s former banker, detailed Cohen’s swift actions in setting up a shell company and transferring funds to Daniels’ attorney. Within a day, Cohen expedited a $131,000 advance on his home equity line of credit, promptly wired to the newly created Essential Consultant LLC account. This maneuver, disguised as a real estate deal, resulted in a $130,000 transfer to Daniels’ lawyer. Farro emphasized the frequency of urgent matters in his interactions with Cohen, noting that Cohen’s accounts were subsequently closed by First Republic Bank following the public revelation of the hush money payment to Daniels.

Video evidence was presented to the jury in court on Tuesday morning, with prosecutors relying on records custodians to introduce several clips.

Clips from C-SPAN featuring Trump speaking at public events were shown to the jury. 

The clips depicted then-candidate Trump vehemently refuting allegations of sexual assault made by women following the release of the “Access Hollywood” tape that month. In one clip, Trump asserts, “As you have seen, right now I’m being viciously attacked with lies and smears. It’s a phony deal. I have no idea who these women are.”

Some of Trump’s family and friends showed up at court today.

On Tuesday, Trump received guests in the courtroom gallery, expanding beyond the usual team. Notably, his son, Eric Trump, made an appearance. That marked the first attendance by a family member at the trial. Susie Wiles, Trump’s senior campaign adviser, accompanied Eric Trump.

Ken Paxton, the Texas attorney general, and David McIntosh, a co-founder of conservative political groups such as the Club for Growth, were also in the courtroom.
