Yungeen Ace Shows Love To Foolio After Shooting

by

Yungeen Ace dropped into Foolio’s Instagram Live to show him love after surviving a recent shooting. “I’m glad you survived I love you la bra,” Ace wrote in the chat. After seeing the message, the rapper responded “Love you too.” It’s something of a surprising interaction, given that Foolio called Ace a “rat” back in August after seeing a video of Ace interacting with the police. While it’s unclear whether Ace was cooperating with the cops, he argued that there was a blanket standard.

Foolio was shot last month and in the same live that he got love from Yungeen, he claimed that he got shot over a vape at a gas station. However, he appears to be recovering nicely, even though he won’t be at full strength for a while. Foolio’s shooting is a developing story and we’ll have any updates as and when they emerge.

Foolio Beefs With YK Osiris

Meanwhile, Foolio recently beefed with YK Osiris. Osiris flamed Foolio for seemingly putting out YoungBoy’s location during their separate beef. “This sh-t is so lame, bro. I gotta get on here and defend myself every freakin’ time. I be chillin’, drinking my margarita. A n-gga wanna come up here and cap, and get clickbaits. Man, leave me the f-ck out of that, na. You know damn well I ain’t got nothing to do with that. Stand on your own. You a man, bruh, stand on your own. I’m not with none of that, bruh. That ain’t no real na sh-t,” Foolio said in defense.

Meanwhile, Foolio continues to take incremental steps in his recovery. “Real sh-t do not mind the way my toes look. I can’t wash my feet or clip them right now, but look, ain’t God good? Look! I can really move my sh-t now. I can move my toes now. And I can feel them b-tches now,” he said excitable in a recent Instagram post showing off his recovery.

DJ Akademiks Claims Drake Tried To Mediate SZA Beef

by

During a recent conversation with DJ Vlad, DJ Akademiks recalled Drake calling him in the midst of his beef with SZA. “It was a very polite call. But, you know, they are very close friends and they were doing the album at the time. He wanted to see if there was any middle ground that could be reached. But I just told that it was an axe I needed to grind from a couple years back. I just needed to pop off, I got no issue with her. I love her and I actually went back on my platform and I said that listen, I was sending nothing but love and light,” Akademiks explained.

SZA has been targeted a couple of times by the outspoken DJ, most recently in August of this year. Ak received heavy backlash after fat-shaming SZA on his massive social platform. “Let me keep it a bean, SZA is as fat as me. That’s 100 percent facts. This is why when b-tches call me fat, I be laughing. You wh-res are fat, just like me. […] You suck that fat out of [your chin] and put it into your a– and your a– be looking lopsided. Your belly button be looking weird because they move that b-tch around, it’s like tic-tac-toe,” Ak said in the heavily-criticized rant.

Akademiks Questions Drake’s Jewish Identity

Furthermore, while Drake tried to play peacemaker on this occasion, he has also often been a target of Ak’s ire. In recent months, Drizzy had his Jewish identity questioned over his silence on the Israel-Palestine conflict. “I do think when it comes to Drake and Khaled, it’s probably a concerted effort of not trying to isolate people. It’s like, ‘If I say something, what will it even matter?’” Ak reasoned. However, he went in harder on Drake, especially in regards to Drake’s Jewish heritage. “I think he’s gone away from trying to be the, ‘Hey, this is the Jewish rapper,’” he theorized.

Drake did eventually break his silence on the conflict, signing a widely-circulated letter calling for a ceasefire. “We urge your administration, Congress, and all world leaders, to honor all of the lives in the Holy Land and call for and facilitate a ceasefire without delay. An end to the bombing of Gaza, and the safe release of hostages. Half of Gaza’s two million residents are children, and more than two-thirds are refugees and their descendants being forced to flee their homes. Humanitarian aid must be allowed to reach them,” the letter that Drake signed read in part.

Noname And J. Cole Squashed Their Beef Earlier This Year, “Sundial” Rapper Claims

by

Noname has revealed that she and J. Cole have squashed the beef that flared up between them several years ago. “I wouldn’t say he was necessarily wrong. I think we both could have went about it in a better way. We both could have done better. I’m like, ‘Bro, I’m only on Twitter, I’m not even talking about you. It’s tweets, I thought you wasn’t on Twitter.’ I had a block party this past summer and I was hitting him to see if he could pull up on some special guest shit, and he was really about it,” she said. “He wasn’t able to because he’s a father with children, but he was down to donate.We have prison chapters for our book club, so he was like, ‘I’m definitely down to support.’ He’s really sweet. We do not have beef, we love Cole over here,” Noname told Complex this week.

The beef between the two artists originated in 2020, when people interpreted a line in Cole’s “Snow On Da Bluff” as a shot at Noname. Noname then responded with some Cole diss bars on “Song 33″. Noname did try to walk it back, saying “I tried to use it as a moment to draw attention back to the issues i care about but i didn’t have to respond. My ego got the best of me. i apologize for any further distraction this caused” on social media. However, fans have assumed that there has been animosity between the pair ever since.

J. Cole Claims No Beef With NBA YoungBoy

However, Noname isn’t the only person that Cole is clearing the air with. Cole used his feature on Drake’s For All The Dogs to address the rumors that he has beef with NBA YoungBoy. “N-ggas so thirsty to put me in beef/ Dissectin’ my words and start lookin’ too deep/ I look at the tweets and start suckin’ my teeth/ I’m lettin’ it rock ’cause I love the mystique/I still wanna get me a song with YB/ Can’t trust everything that you saw on IG/ Just know if I diss you, I made sure you know that I hit you like I’m on your caller ID,” Cole raps on “First Person Shooter”.

The clarification comes after YoungBoy took a shot at Cole on “Fuck The Industry Pt. 2” back in May. One of the bars in the track suggested that Cole had ghosted YB after initially agreeing to a feature. Rumors of a collab between the two musicians date back as far as 2021, when Akademiks initially reported that the two were planning to hit the studio together.

Gucci Mane And T.I. Put Their Rivalry Behind Them At His Latest Show: Watch

by

The longstanding beef between Gucci Mane and T.I. has finally come to an end. This all went down last night (October 17) at Guwop’s show in Atlanta. It took place at The Tabernacle, according to HipHopDX. It was to recognize the release of his brand new album, Breath of Fresh Air which also came out yesterday. Gucci has not released a solo project since 2021, which is a fairly big deal considering his constant output. While most people might be a bit more familiar with his and Jeezy’s beef, T.I. has also not been seeing eye to eye with him either.

However, it seems that things are back to normal. Gucci brought out T.I. at one point during the show. The two embraced onstage by dapping each other up. This led right into Tip playing one of his classic hits, “24’s.” He got the crowd going as they sang most of the words. Gucci let him have the stage to himself for the performance.

Gucci Mane And T.I. Make Up

Shortly after the song ends, both come in front of the crowd to publicly acknowledge things and bury the hatchet. It is hard to make out what they are saying but the two look to be at peace with each other. The arguing began back in 2012 with Gucci saying he started the the trap subgenre. T.I. responded in total disagreement saying that his ’03 album, Trap Muzik started it all. Gucci thanked his friend on his IG Story saying, “Much respect @Tip” with the chilly face emoji.

What are your initial thoughts on Gucci Mane and T.I. reuniting on stage together after this long beef between them? What do you think changed for these two? Is this one of the best feel-good moments in rap this year? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your thoughts and opinions in the comments section below.

Charlamagne Tha God Called Birdman To Squash Beef, Radio Host Claims

by

Charlamagne Tha God told HipHopDX that all it took to end his beef with Birdman was a lengthy phone call. “He’s an OG that I look up to as far as what he’s built, as far as being a mogul. You can’t deny him,” Charlamagne told the outlet at the BET Hip Hop Awards. “[Big Bank] put us on the phone one time and I was able to tell him that [I look up to what he’s done]. It was just mutual respect. That was a fulfilling conversation for me.”

The beef between the two industry icons dates back to 2016. It stemmed from an interview that lasted just a few minutes. Birdman felt that Charlamagne and his radio co-hosts didn’t respect his name and status. Later he would drop a single, “Respek”, that called back to the whole debacle. While the beef went dormant over the years, it never truly went away until now.

Funk Flex Calls Out Charlamagne Over 2001 Sexual Assault Allegations

Meanwhile, Funk Flex recently called out Charlamagne over stories from earlier this year about Charlamagne looking to end the ongoing lawsuit he is facing over 2001 allegations of sexual assault. “UMMMMM? YOU CAUGHT ANOTHER (NEW) LAWSUIT APRIL 21, 2023? I DONT THINK U SETTLED THAT? @cthagod (AND YOU CALLING PEOPLE PATHETIC?) LET YOUR LAWYER KNOW I CAN TALK ABOUT THIS CAUSE VIBE MAG ALREADY DID?” Flex was a little off the mark. The April articles simply spoke about Charlamagne’s intention to end the case, not a new lawsuit that he was facing.

Rape allegations leveled at radio host Charlamagne Tha God have been around for several years. Jessica Reid has long accused Charlamagne of raping her in 2001 when she was 15 years old. In 2018, Reid took her case to the South Carolina Supreme Court. She claimed that Charlamagne had continued to “violate” her on his radio show and social media. While Charlamagne has vehemently and consistently denied the allegations, Reid sued him in late 2022.

Tasha K Surrenders In Sexyy Red Beef After Talking To Rapper’s Mom

by

Tasha K continues to make headlines for herself, despite a recent string of massive Ls. We are just weeks removed from Tasha filing for bankruptcy after being slapped with a court order to pay Cardi B $4M after being found liable for defamation claims brought forward by the rapper. Regardless of this, Tasha has dived headfirst back into controversy.

Her newest targets were Sexyy Red and Sukihana because why beef with one person when you can beef with two? “I can’t believe that in #HoCultureMusic, #SexyyRed would ever outsell over #Suki, who’s been drinking bodily fluids on camera way longer than Red! 🙈 Is Suki too old? Out of touch? A #NickiFeature is a big deal, y’all think that if she didn’t do that cameo with #FlyLikeABird she would be much further? Why didn’t #FlyLikeABird jump on a song with #Suki?,” the baitmonger wrote in a series of tweets.

Taska K Backs Down From Sexyy Red Beef

Sexyy Red fired off a few messages in response to Tasha but largely ignored the infamous tweeter. However, any response is a good response in the eyes of Tasha. Initially, Tasha tried to drag Redd’s BET Awards outfit. Redd simply shot Tasha down by telling her to stay in her lane. In response to this, Tasha did the most hardcore thing you can do in an internet beef – complain about the person to their mom. Except, it seems that the conversation didn’t go very well for Tasha, who subsequently conceded defeat in the beef.

Babyface Breaks Silence On Anita Baker “Feud”

by

R&B singer-songwriters Babyface and Anita Baker have alleged beef. After being unceremoniously cut from Baker’s Songstress tour, Babyface went on the Jason Lee Show to clear the air. The tour, which is celebrating the 40-year anniversary of Anita Baker’s debut album, had Babyface as an opening act. However, due to multiple issues, Baker thought it necessary to cut him from the show.

According to Babyface, one of his last appearances in the show was rife with technical difficulties. From Baker’s point of view, he constantly went over his allotted time, causing her to start very late. In Newark, NJ, technical failures shortened the show, leading to the decision to give the remaining time to Anita. Fans of the male musician reportedly cyberbullied Baker, upset about his limited stage time. Combine outraged fans with an opening act going beyond his time, and it was enough for Baker to pull the plug.

Despite his fans being overtly critical of Baker, making her out to be a villain, Babyface seems unfazed about it all. “First of all, I have no problem being a support act for Anita Baker,” he says in a video clip of the Jason Lee Show. “I have that much love and respect for her art.” He also clarifies that it was always her show and that it was never a co-headliner situation. The full interview dropped on Revolt TV yesterday, so we can get more insight into what he thinks about his fans cyberbullying Baker and what he’s going to do with his newly found free time.

Babyface is an R&B icon with over 40 years of music output. He released an album in 2022, Girls Night Out, his first one in seven years. As for Anita Baker, she’s still busy after all these years. In addition to the Songstress Tour, she performed “The Star-Spangled Banner” at this year’s NFC East Championship Game for the 2022 NFL Playoffs. Rolling Stone has Baker ranked number 92 on their list of the 200 Greatest Singers of All Time.

Cam’Ron Settles Ben Gordon Beef

by

Ben Gordon spent 11 seasons in the NBA, retiring in 2015. However, he was detained in December 2022 after reportedly stabbing a number of people with sewing needles. For his podcast, It Is What It Is, Cam’Ron visited the hospital where Gordon was being held. “At 11:15 this morning, former NBA player Ben Gordon was detained and taken to Harlem hospital after witnesses say he was trying to stab random people with sewing needles,” Cam wrote on Instagram alongside the video at the time. This is all speculation at this point. But Ben seems to been having mental health issues for a while. Let’s hope he gets the help he needs,” Cam’Ron wrote on Instagram. More recently, Cam’Ron threatened to get Gordon institutionalized.

After being released in December, Gordon responded to Cam’Ron’s remarks. “Cameras is Cam’ron-ing,” he said. “To think a grown man drove from where he was to come mock — fuck outta here, man. That n-gga silly. Yo look, libel, slander is a real thing, man. My lawyers is lawyering. I know you like to say shit like that. Yeah, my computers is computing, that’s what your shits is doing? Fuck outta here, gang. It was a black-on-black crime that day. Cam’ron, you know, they probably called the police and everything on me … Them boys set me up. The cameras is Camron-ing. Kodak Camron-ing coming soon … I ain’t got nothing to lose. I got paper too, n-gga. Fuck outta here, bum ass n-ggas.”

Cam’Ron Squashes The Beef

Appearing on Good Day New York, Cam’Ron made it clear that he had no bad blood towards Gordon. “So look, let me explain what happened with Ben Gordon,” Cam’ron began. “It’s funny, my brother is over there who started this whole thing. So I did a report on Ben Gordon and I’m not going to talk about Ben — wassup, Ben?.” Furthermore, Cam’Ron continued. “He didn’t like it so much so he tried to get at me so I got back at him. But it’s all fun and games, you know, I love Ben. I got a lot a love for Ben.”

Additionally, Cam’Ron waved off any fears of Gordon’s physical threats. “Ben’s cool. Ben’s my mans,” Cam continued. “It’s all fun and games, at least on my behalf. I think it’s all fun and games. I don’t have a problem with Ben. You gotta ask Ben about the sewing needles. I ain’t have nothing to do with the sewing needles, but as far as I’m concerned, it’s over with. I love Ben Gordon. If he has a problem with me, hopefully we can get on the phone and fix it.” Gordon is yet to comment on Cam’Ron’s comments but it’s clear that the sports personality has no interest in continuing the beef.

Bow Wow Forgives Jermaine Dupri

by

Bow Wow and Jermaine Dupri have an interesting relationship. Since the age of six Bow Wow has been in the mix of the music industry. However, he’s always had some mentors in his camp. One of which being Jermaine Dupri, who’s had his fair share of fallouts with the rap icon. Recently, the producing legend, stated in an interview that he should’ve received more credit for discovering Bow Wow. Later the two fell out even more after Shad Moss revealed that he regretted signing with JD.

The two were beefing so heavy that they couldn’t even be in the same room alone together. Bow Wow shared on Math Hoffa’s, My Expert Opinion that Nelly had to be in the room and mediate the meeting between the two. “Last month, I pulled up to the studio, and Nelly had to be there to be the mediator. I said, ‘I’ll come inside when you there’,” Bow Wow told the podcast. He continued, “‘But you gotta be there. You gotta be right in the middle of this s**t.‘” Shad Moss also express how glad he was that the Country Grammar rapper was there to ease the tension between him and Dupri. Despite their recent spat, the pair was able to remember all the good that both have done for each other over the years.

Bow Wow Takes The High Road

Moreover, Bow Wow recently took to Instagram recapping his time at Usher’s Lover’s and Friends Festival. In the video he’s seen playfully pushing JD and laughing with the legendary producer. However, in the caption Shad writes, “I’ll be the bigger person…I’M FOLLOWING YOU AGAIN @jermainedupri hey it’s a step.” Not only that the rapper also mentioned that it had been a year since the two had spoken to each other.

Although, Bow Wow has buried the hatchet and squashed the beef, fans on social media feel otherwise. Investigative fans pointed out the body language between the two and made note of Jermaine Dupri’s standoffish demeanor. Many commented that they didn’t even need to know their family business (fair enough). Others however, felt that Bow Wow cared more about patching things up than JD. Especially after fans pointed out the side eye from Dupri after Shad Moss playfully pushed him. Do you think the beef is really over? Let us know in the comments below!
