Diddy’s Lawyer Delivers An Update On His Client’s State Of Mind

by

It’s no secret that Diddy has a long road ahead of him, as he’s currently facing several charges related to alleged sex trafficking and racketeering. The Bad Boy founder was arrested earlier this month in New York City and remains in custody at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. Reportedly, he could be hit with a lengthy prison sentence if he’s convicted. According to his lawyer Marc Agnifilo, however, he hasn’t let that shake his confidence.

During his appearance in TMZ‘s new documentary, The Downfall of Diddy: The Indictment, Agnifilo gave an update on how his client is doing following his arrest. “His state of mind is actually remarkably positive,” he explained. “His resolve is strong, he’s engaged, he’s focused on his defense… He’s come to terms with the fact that this is where he is for now.”

Agnifilo continued, speculating that concentrating on his defense is giving Diddy the strength he needs to carry him through this difficult time. While the mogul appears to be doing well despite the circumstances, his legal issues are still mounting. Late last week, for example, he was hit with his twelfth lawsuit in the past 11 months. An anonymous woman accuses him of sexually assaulting, drugging, and threatening her. She additionally alleges that she was impregnated by Diddy.

In this latest lawsuit, Diddy’s alleged victim also accuses Yung Miami of trying to harass and pressure her into getting an abortion. In the end, she alleges that she had a miscarriage. “Jane Doe informed defendant Combs of the positive test. Caresha Brownlee, defendant Combs’ associate, harassed Jane Doe by repeatedly calling her and telling Jane Doe to have an abortion. Jane Doe suffered a miscarriage and did not speak to defendant Combs or his team for approximately three months,” the suit reads. What do you think of Diddy’s lawyer claiming that he’s been able to stay positive despite his current circumstances?

Lil Uzi Vert Appears To Diss Lil Yachty On New Leaked Song

by

Lil Uzi Vert and Lil Yachty have a lot of career parallels, as they came up during a similar time back in the SoundCloud era and the popularization of the term “mumble rap.” But that doesn’t mean they’ve always seen eye to eye. Beef rumors have followed the two for years now, and a new leaked Uzi song means that they won’t die out for a while. On it, they seem to diss Yachty with the following lines: “N***as, they put my swag in they notes / I was on a yacht in the goddamn snow / B***h, I’m Lil Uzi, I’m not Lil Boat.”

Of course, this doesn’t necessarily have to be a shot, as it could just be a risky play on words unrelated to the first bar. Nevertheless, fans still raised their eyebrows at this, and it looks like neither artist has publicly responded to this at press time. You may recall that Lil Yachty previously downplayed rumors that he and Lil Uzi Vert had beef when a leak surfaced that had an apparent Uzi diss on it. “No matter how bad they want the collab, I ain’t friends with Uzi,” he allegedly spat.

Lil Uzi Vert’s New Leak Seemingly Dissing Lil Yachty

“[You] guys are delusional,” Lil Yachty responded online when this leak hit. “[You] n***as go around living your life acting like [you] know us. S**t is od weird, y’all be grown men too… On here tryna piece s**t together, don’t be knowin’ nothing. Get a job.” “I seen that. It surprised me,” he said a month earlier on his podcast of Lil Uzi Vert praising him in a recent interview. “I’ve never said a bad… I’ve never hated on Uzi ever. [Competition is] just hip-hop. That’s rap. Man, this s**t – you wouldn’t understand it, man. I don’t have a problem with [them], though.”

Meanwhile, this might be the praise Ak was talking about that Lil Uzi Vert had for Lil Yachty while talking to DJ Akademiks in the studio. “It’s definitely, like, you gotta understand,” they told the media personality. “How long has he been around? Yachty. That’s what I’m trying to tell you, and he still ain’t even go nowhere. He’s definitely a n***a that beat the washed allegations. He beat the s**t out of them. On his own ways. He beat it!” With all this in mind, it looks like this new leak is probably either a misconstrued shout-out or an old sentiment that doesn’t reflect their relationship anymore… But we could be wrong.

As for Boosie’s controversial comments, he called out his daughter during an appearance on Yung Miami’s Caresha Please show. “I mean, she still can’t bring her situation to our house. My daughter is wrong. Well, why is she wrong? Because I don’t want it to contaminate her other six, seven sisters who look up to her,” he said. His daughter ended up firing back on social media, saying: “You suck, bruh. And I know you suck with that cause you’d rather go to the Internet and have a conversation with the Internet about your kids before you come to us and have that conversation.”

Dionne Warwick Reveals Why She Didn’t Enjoy Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us”

by

Dionne Warwick was seemingly tired of Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us,” while listening to the Drake diss for an interview with NPR for a segment titled “Nobody Asked for This (But I’m Gonna Tell You Anyhow),” in which she reviewed modern music. When the interview played the hit song, Warwick asked why the two rappers took their feud public in the first place. “This is the look of ‘why’?” she said. “I don’t think that this should be a public thing. So as far as I’m concerned, I’m not going to rate this one.”

It’s not the first time she’s abstained from commenting on the viral beef. Back in April, a fan on X (formerly Twitter) asked her about J. Cole’s involvement and for her to address the situation. “No. I will continue to mind my business,” she said in response.

Elsewhere in the interview, Warwick discussed Chappell Roan, Charli XCX, and Sabrina Carpenter. For Roan, she praised the singer’s hit song, “Good Luck, Babe!” saying, “She’s got her own thing going on. That’s a wonderful thing.” For Charli, she admitted to not knowing about her album, Brat, but enjoyed the song, “Guess.” As for Carpenter, she discussed “Please, Please, Please, ” which she gave a four-and-a-half out of five.

Check out Warwick’s full comments on Kendrick Lamar, Sabrina Carpenter, and more below.

Jussie Smollett Breaks Silence On Lee Daniels’ Viral Comments On Their Relationship

by

Jussie Smollett addressed Lee Daniels’ recent comments on their relationship, in which the Empire creator labeled it, “complicated,” during an appearance on The Breakfast Club. Speaking with TMZ in New York City on Friday in honor of the release of his new film, The Lost Holliday, Smollett explained that he is always going to be on good terms with Daniels despite their disagreements.

“I talk to Lee often. It’s something that– I love Lee very much, but here’s the thing, I don’t talk about it. Lee is somebody that I love,” Smollett said. “He gave me an opportunity that I’ll always be grateful for, but at the same time, it’s a relationship that’s really important to me, so I don’t feel the need to mediate that in the public.” He added: “Lee is also a little bit more of an open book, so he’ll say things, but I love him so much. And, he knows that. We’re always gonna be good.”

The drama surrounds Daniels’ comments about Smollett’s infamous staging of a hate crime against himself in Chicago in 2019. “That whole situation was complicated,” Daniels said, last month. “I still don’t know what to believe. Honestly, I don’t know what to believe. People say he didn’t do it, he did do it. God bless him on his journey.” Despite that remark, he also said that he’d still be willing to work with Smollett again. “I’d cast him in something,” he clarified. “He was a son to me. And he also represented me. And he also represented the movement that I tried to start, which I didn’t know I was starting. I was so busy, worried about Cookie’s hat and the music that we were playing [on Empire], this was before Insecure, this was before Black Panther. We started it. I was so worried about getting everything right that I didn’t know what was happening in the zeitgeist.”
