XXXTentacion’s 2018 murder in South Florida will soon see justice with a January 9, 2023 trial date, however, the request by one of the co-defendants accused of the killing to subpoena Drake has intensified, with his lawyer filing a formal request to have Drake and DJ Akademiks testify in court claiming their alleged involvement.

Mauricio Padilla, the attorney for Dedrick Williams, one of the four men accused of fatally shooting XXXTentacion, submitted a request to Broward County Circuit Judge Michael Usan to have Drake and DJ Akademiks subpoenaed to court. The submitted document says, “The testimony of the said Aubrey Drake Graham is material to the case, and it is necessary to take the deposition of the said Aubrey Drake Graham to prevent the failure of justice.”

It was well known that Drake and XXXTencion had beef before his death, with X accusing Drizzy of stealing his style and now Williams’ attorney alleges that Drake spoke on X’s murder in the song “On BS”. Padilla added Akademiks to his subpoena list because he says that Ak speaks on the case regularly on his platform. “Mr. Allen, who goes by the stage name ‘DJ Akademiks,’ posted his podcast on December 21, where he openly discusses the case, acknowledges being served, and states, ‘I am not showing up to court to talk to y’all n****s.’ It is clear that nothing short of a court order will ensure Mr. Allen’s participation in a deposition,” read the request.

The trial begins a week from today. TheSource.com will update this story as details develop.

Wack 100 Checks DJ Akademiks Over Gunna Snitching Allegations

by

It’s been less than a week since Gunna’s release from jail after taking a plea deal.

As the story and YSL’s RICO case as a whole continue to develop, many big names are weighing in on social media.

Last Thursday (December 15), 6ix9ine took to his Instagram account to publicly accuse the “Drip Too Hard” rapper of snitching in order to get out of jail.

The “KEKE” rapper’s manager, Wack 100 is now speaking out as well, sharing the same sentiments as his artist.

In an Instagram post yesterday (December 19), Wack shared his thoughts on Gunna taking the plea deal. He directly calls out DJ Akademiks in the process.

“@akademiks Stop bro … His statements were clearly on the RECORD … And the whole “DEFENSE” was #YSL IS NOT I REPEAT IS NOT A GANG JUST A RECORD LABEL… YOU HIM OR THEM CANT REWRITE THE LAWS OF #SNITCHING. CO-OPERATION WITH THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY MAKES U A CO OPERANT WHICH EQUALS #Telling,” he wrote.

His post comes after Akademiks shared screenshots of a conversation with Gunna’s attorney, Steve Sadow.

In the screenshots, the media personality asks Sadow if he can “publicly address how Gunna’s viral ‘yes ma’am video affects Thug and YSL if at all?”

“Doesn’t effect anyone but my client. Out of court statements at a plea hearing cannot come into evidence against someone else,” the attorney replies. He then confirms his consent for Akademiks to share this conversation online.

Sadow has been extremely busy since his client’s release, insisting that there is no authenticity behind the rumors.

However, it seems as though Wack and 6ix9ine aren’t buying it.

“Gunna did not snitch to get out of jail. He has said nothing and is not cooperating. His plea statement cannot be used in court against any other defendant. So please stop spreading lies!!!” the attorney wrote in an Instagram post on December 15.

Additionally, Sadow says that the Georgie native plans to plead the 5th if he’s called to testify against his YSL crew.

On the other hand, Thugger’s attorney, Brian Steel, is speaking out about how these plea deals affect his client. He says that these deals being offered to other members of YSL indicate that the “Best Friend” rapper is evidently being targeted.

Based on the information that we have, what do you think about the situation? Can the snitching rumors finally be put to rest? As always, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest updates.

Joe Budden On Megan Thee Stallion: “I Don’t Like That Girl”

by

Joe Budden admitted he doesn’t like Megan Thee Stallion while discussing Tory Lanez’s ongoing trial on The Joe Budden Podcast. Lanez is facing three felony assault charges for allegedly shooting Megan in 2020.

For the episode, Budden brought on his former colleague DJ Akademiks.

“I got some theories,” Budden said firstly on the show, before adding, “But what I can say is I’m finished with these n****s and I don’t like that girl. I can’t.”

He further continued: “Personally, I’ve seen this woman do horrible things to some really great people that I have longstanding relationships with here in this industry. So I’m biased. You can’t just treat my friends, and people I fuck with, and people I’ve seen in this game for 15 years a certain way.”

Budden’s comments come following forensic scientist Marc Scott Taylor’s testimony on Friday. They claimed that Tory Lanez’s DNA was not found on the magazine of the gun used to shoot Megan Thee Stallion. Tests as to whether his DNA was anywhere else on the gun additionally came back inconclusive.

The trial began in Los Angeles back on December 12. Megan Thee Stallion has already testified to the court that Lanez shot her and tried to buy her silence. He is facing charges of assault with a semiautomatic firearm, personal use of a firearm, and also carrying a loaded, unregistered firearm in a vehicle. Lanez faces up to 22 years in prison if convicted. He has already pleaded not guilty.

The trial will continue on Monday.

DJ Akademiks Receives DM From Diddy About Yung Miami

by

He doesn’t usually return to backtrack on his beefs, but DJ Akademiks is moving differently after waging war with Yung Miami. The blogger has often been on the wrong side of several artists due to the nature of his reports. Whether through his interviews or Twitch Livestreams, Akademiks doesn’t hold back in his unfiltered criticisms. Over the years, he’s had quite a bit to say about Yung Miami and her career, so it was no surprise that he touched on her relationship with Sean “Diddy Combs.”

Most recently, Diddy revealed that he became a father once again. A California woman named Dana Tran was revealed to be the newborn’s mother—a child reportedly born in October. Akademiks trolled the situation by referring to Yung Miami as a side chick, prompting a back-and-forth that became a viral moment. Insults were spewed and Akademiks doubled down on criticisms, but now, he’s backtracking.

In a follow-up, Akademiks claimed that Diddy DMed him to speak about the viral controversy.

“Diddy, I’m not no player hater. I love you so I’ma just fall back outta this one, I ain’t even gonna get on it crazy like that,” he now says. “She’s been be reading comments, Diddy… She’s on everybody’s head. It’s not only me.” Akademiks then called Yung Miami a “queen” who no longer a side chick.

Meanwhile, Diddy made it publicly clear that he wouldn’t stand for anyone disrespecting the “Act Up” hitmaker.

“[Yung Miami] is not my side chick. Never has been, never will be. She’s very important and special to me, and I don’t play about my Shawty Wop. I don’t discuss things on the internet and I will not start today,” he wrote.

Check out the clip of Akademiks speaking about Diddy above.

DJ Akademiks & Saucy Santana Get Into Heated Back And Forth

by

DJ Akademiks loves to get himself involved in a conflict. As a result, it appears as though an unexpected beef is unraveling before our eyes.

As it usually does, the drama began to ensue when Akademiks took to his Twitch stream. Addressing a tweet from Saucy Santana, the media personality saw a chance to ignite some friction.

Considering the “Material Girl” rapper is always active on Twitter, of course he noticed a tweet from a fan. “I can’t wait for @SaucySantana to DRAG @Akademiks when he sees him. Stop playing about his best friend @YungMiami305,” they wrote.

The post was in response to the recent drama surrounding Diddy and his girlfriend, Yung Miami. After welcoming a baby with Dana Tran, rumors began circulating that the 28-year-old is just a side chick to the “Bad Boy for Life” rapper. However, the Circoc promoter has since cleared the air.

The City Girls rapper and the 2022 XXL Freshman are certainly known to be close friends, so they have each other’s back amidst the drama.

Santana went on to agree with the Twitter user, indicating that Akademiks is never seen outside. “We outside tho!!!” he continued.

While on Twitch, the former Everyday Struggle co-host rudely replied to the 29-year-old’s remarks, reminding him he’s a man.

“I beg for you to try to say I’m not outside ‘cause I will be, and I beg for you to try to step to me,” the media personality taunted despite streaming from his basement.

In a string of tweets following Akademik’s response, Santana is evidently not holding back as he continues to diss the 31-year-old.

“I just landed in LA! You a twitch b*tch! At home in a room full of corn chips! Screaming & spitting in a mic,” he wrote. “I know imma MAN everyday when I wake up… that still ain’t gon make u do shit,” the “Material Girl” rapper continued.

Regardless of what happens, the XXL freshman is not backing down.

Clearly, Akademiks is in a fighting mood recently. He additionally said he’ll fight Lil Baby in a recent live stream. This arrives following the Atlanta rapper mentioning him on one of his new tracks, “From Now On” earlier in the year.

“Akademiks know he ain’t as rich as me,” he raps in response to the media personality formerly claiming otherwise.

Elsewhere on Baby’s third studio album, It’s Only Me, he consequently sends a threat. “Akademiks n****s think they can’t get touched/ I don’t be on computers much, CED turnt me on to YouTube,” the 28-year-old raps on “Top Priority.”

It will certainly be interesting to see how this unfolds and who will check Akademiks next.

Finally, who do you think would win in a fight between Akademiks and Saucy Santana if they eventually square up? Comment down below and make sure to stay tuned to HNHH for the latest updates.

The Mother Of Diddy’s Surprise Baby Was Revealed

by

After shocking the world with the recent announcement that he would have his seventh child, Diddy set social media abuzz, with fans wondering who the mother of the Harlem entrepreneur’s baby girl, Love Sean Combs was.

TMZ reports that the Diddy secret baby momma is a 28-year-old cybersecurity specialist named Dana Tran.

Tran, who also goes by Dana Tee online, social media presence has been absent for some time now. So far, the only information available about the woman is her occupation and that she is a native of the Southern California area. Diddy and his team have not shared the status of his relationship with Tran nor the extent of their relationship.

The baby news caught fans, and his rumored girlfriend, City Grils rapper Yung Miami, by surprise.

“I’m so blessed to welcome my baby girl Love Sean Combs to the world,” he wrote on Twitter Sunday (December 11). “Mama Combs, Quincy, Justin, Christian, Chance, D’Lila, Jessie, and myself all love you so much! God is the Greatest!”

Miami has yet to make a public statement about Diddy’s recent announcement, but she has been embroiled in a nasty spat with DJ Akademiks online, where he referred to Miami as Diddy’s “side chick,” which obviously didn’t go over too well.

“I’M NOBODY SIDE B*TCH LETS JUST MAKE THIS CLEAR ON THIS GOOD MONDAY! I don’t come 2nd to no b*tch!” the rapper tweeted on Monday (December 12). She followed up her statements by saying, “Akademiks, my name ain’t d*ck, so keep it out your mouth!!! You the type of N**** my uncle doing life sentences for B*TCH ASS N****!!!!!”

Miami continued directing shots at the social media personality and alleged that Akademiks was “harassing” her online, writing, “It’s cool for a MAN to constantly harass me online that I don’t know! he did the same sh*t when my car got shot up he laughed when I almost lost my life find somebody else to play with! I can react how tf I want to!”

Diddy Clears The Air About All Those Yung Miami Rumors: ‘She’s Very Important And Special To Me’

After Yung Miami and Akademiks mixed it up on Twitter over Diddy’s possible album announcement, Diddy himself chimed in to clear the air, although he says doesn’t “discuss things on the internet.” Diddy denied thinking of Yung Miami as a “side chick” after Akademiks characterized her that way, calling her “important” and “special.”

“[Yung Miami] is not my side chick,” he wrote. “Never has been, never will be. She’s very important and special to me, and I don’t play about my Shawty Wop. I don’t discuss things on the internet and I will not start today.”

Diddy and Yung Miami’s relationship has been the subject of much speculation online after the two began spending a lot of time together last summer. Ever since the City Girl posted a photo of the two holding hands at Quality Control CEO Pierre Thomas’ birthday party, fans couldn’t help but wonder about the couple — who were both more than happy to encourage the gossip in subtle (and not-so-subtle) ways.

However, over the weekend, Diddy unexpectedly announced the arrival of a “baby girl” on Twitter, prompting many of those fans to pick at Yung Miami over being played by Diddy. Others, however, believed that the announcement was his rather dramatic way of exulting over finishing the album he’s been promising for the past year or so. Apparently, Akademiks fell into the former camp (because when has Akademiks ever passed up a chance to be a raging misogynist?), and tweeted, “Diddy different… my N**** done f*cked around and had a side baby on his harem of side chicks.” This prompted Miami to clapback, “I’M NOBODY SIDE B*TCH LETS JUST MAKE THIS CLEAR ON THIS GOOD MONDAY! I don’t come 2nd to no b*tch!”

Now, with Diddy weighing in and clearing the air, perhaps that’ll turn down the derogatory remarks about Miami, whatever her title or role in his life really is.

His opinions are known to rub people the wrong way, but DJ Akademiks doesn’t mind having an enemy or two. The blogger and Off The Record podcast host often goes toe-to-toe—albeit online—with his entertainment peers for how he delivers takes on pop culture and Hip Hop. Most recently, the news of Sean “Diddy” Combs welcoming a daughter months ago with a California woman went viral. This, of course, received a wave of attention, and Akademiks chimed in to point the spotlight at Yung Miami.

The Grown-ish actor wrote: “Why does dj akademiks only pick smoke with females… I ain’t never see him keep that energy with another man.”

It is an observation that Ak has often faced, but he decided to unleash during a Livestream. He called Sabbat a “bum ass n*gga” and invited the actor to “come over here.” Akademiks even said he would “book [him] a ticket” to his “headquarters” so they could settle things in some sort of fight.

Meanwhile, it was just yesterday (December 12) when Yung Miami gave Akademiks a piece of her mind. After learning of his remarks, she didn’t hold back in her response.

DJ Akademiks had some thoughts about Diddy’s surprise announcement of his recent child — and it didn’t go over so well.

“Diddy different… my N**** done f*cked around and had a side baby on his harem of side chicks,” Akademiks’ tweet read. “Brother Love a real 1.”

This comment clearly didn’t sit right with City Girls’ Yung Miami, who had been in a documented open relationship with Diddy since 2021. Earlier this year, she confirmed that they both see other people too.

“I’M NOBODY SIDE B*TCH LETS JUST MAKE THIS CLEAR ON THIS GOOD MONDAY! I don’t come 2nd to no b*tch!” Yung Miami responded, kicking off their long chain of back-and-forth drama. “Akademiks my name ain’t d*ck so keep it out your mouth!!! You the type of N**** my uncle doing life sentences for B*TCH ASS N****!!!!!”

“Misdirected anger… Brother Love wouldn’t approve of this behavior,” he fired back. “I aint the one that had a side baby on yall …relax. Yung Miami mad at me for pointing out the obvious.. u said u and that n**** go together real bad… That n**** had another baby wit another woman. u the side chick. dont get mad now. at least u get hella gifts. live ur life queen.

After it was announced that Diddy welcomed a daughter back in October, Yung Miami instantly became a trending topic. She and Sean “Diddy” Combs have been canoodling for some time, although they seemed to define their “relationship” as more of a “situationship.” Nevertheless, they’ve been jet-setting from one side of the world to another, and both hitmakers seem to be enjoying their life of luxury together.

The public has been following Diddy and Miami since rumors of their linkup first emerged. However, attention has shifted to a California woman named Dana Tran, who is the alleged mother of Diddy’s newborn daughter. Amid the news, Yung Miami was trolled by the masses, and she didn’t appreciate comments made by DJ Akademiks.

Akademiks caught wind of Yung Miami’s reaction and tried to suggest she was having a “mental breakdown” online. Even after he said he was “praying for [her] healing,” she checked him. The blogger claimed the rapper sounded like someone who discovered Diddy’s baby news with the rest of the world.
