Charlamagne Tha God Believes Drake Is “Hurting” After Hearing His Speech On Betrayal

Charlamagne Tha God says he believes that Drake is seriously “hurting” after hearing his speech on betrayal and fake friends from a nightclub in Toronto on Saturday night. He discussed how the For All the Dogs rapper is holding up in the wake of his feud with Kendrick Lamar during the latest episode of The Breakfast Club.

“I thought that Kendrick’s execution of this battle was flawless, the strategy, the songs, everything, but I didn’t think that it had that much of an impact on Drake. Drake hurts. Oh my God. He is hurt,” Charlamagne said. While discussing Drake’s alleged decision to unfollow LeBron James, Demar Derozan, and more who were in attendance at Kendrick Lamar’s The Pop Up concert, he added: “You can’t go on an unfollow spree then go on a stage and cry about not having no real friends or whatever that was about.”

They might stab you in the back. They might do a lot of things to you. You’ll come to that realization, wherever you’re at in life. You’ve probably been there and you’ll be there again. That’s how life is. Sometimes it’s you and you alone by yourself.”

DDG Goes Off On Joe Budden Fans Amid Feud Over Halle Bailey Breakup

DDG went off on fans of Joe Budden in a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday, after the podcast host criticized him amid his breakup with Halle Bailey. When one user argued that Budden’s “Pump It Up” is a bigger hit than anything DDG has put out, the rapper fired back: “Boy shut yo b*tch ass up & get sum money. Yo dinner table 2 feet away from the stove, lil ass crib.” He also shared a YouTube video addressing the drama.

As for Budden’s remarks, he had downplayed the relevancy of DDG while discussing the bombshell breakup, earlier in the week. “Who the f*ck is DDG and why am I supposed to care about his thoughts on anything,” Budden said. “I’m very happy that they have broken up so I don’t have to keep seeing this name attached to this girl’s name when I don’t know him from nothing as a standalone, and for me, it’s important to know people based on their name, merit and what they have done. Every time I see his name, it’s attached to hers, and it’s typically in some type of clout chaser fashion, and that makes me look at him a different way.”

When The Neighborhood Talk posted a round-up, one user wrote in the comments section wrote: “His comebacks are ageism, mocking people who have humble earnings,etc. Where do y’all meet these men so I can stay away from there?” Another remarked: “Calling someone old is not a flex.

Hitmaka Explains Why Drake And Kendrick Lamar’s Feud “F*cked The Game Up”

Hitmaka says that Drake and Kendrick Lamar’s viral feud from earlier this year has ruined the game of hip-hop. He explained his reasoning for the controversial take in a pair of statements from his Instagram Story, over the weekend. As caught by 2Cool2Blog, he wrote: “Drake & Kendrick sh*t really f*cked the game up cause now there’s no BAR/STANDARD. Don’t nobody got nothing to aim at or copy off of. Now the hottest rappers in the game are women besides Future & ain’t no n***a running home to make a beat or song in competition with a woman.”

When the outlet shared the posts on Instagram, hip-hop fans in the comments section weren’t moved by the argument. “I have no clue what any of this means or if it even makes sense.

Prior to the interview, he revealed in a post on Instagram that Drake helped cover his legal fees for the trial surrounding his alleged involvement in the murder of a 20-year-old accounting student. He eventually edited the caption to remove his fellow Toronto rapper’s name and instead, thank his lawyer, Gary Grill. Gill argued outside the courtroom: “The problem about prosecuting artists like Mr. Ali based on their music, it fails to understand what the medium is, what’s it about, and how drillers approach their audiences. It’s important for all drillers to portray themselves as the biggest, baddest gangsters on the planet. That’s what sells. That’s what all drillers are doing.”

Top5 Disses Kendrick Lamar

Drake and Lamar have been feuding for months at this point. When the NFL announced that Lamar would be headlining the Super Bow LIX Halftime Show, Lamar used the opportunity to diss Drake. Be on the lookout for further updates on Top5, Kendrick Lamar, and Drake on HotNewHipHop.

Your hatred for BIRDMAN, Drake & Nicki got you punishing Lil Wayne?!?!!! LIL WAYNE!!!!!!!!!! THE GOAT?!!!!!!!!!!! Nola what’s good?!!!!!! Eminem stood firm on having 50Cent come out. A white man.

DJ Akademiks Accuses Kendrick Lamar Of Using Cardi B’s PR Team To Win Him The Drake Beef

DJ Akademiks says that Kendrick Lamar’s team behind the scenes played a critical role in defeating Drake in their viral feud from earlier this year. Discussing the beef during a recent livestream, Ak argued that Lamar locked down some of the best people in the industry to help him out.

“I’m saying this with all due respect. I like Drake, I think a quarter of the reason people think that Drake lost. I said ‘quarter’ I didn’t say the majority. It’s because Drake don’t got no team. Yo, Kendrick got a team right now. Kendrick got the Avengers. I know the n****s. He got the Avengers. The n****s who run Kendrick’s sh*t used to run Cardi B’s sh*t, used to run all the popping sh*t. They did Nas’ sh*t when Nas did 50. They’re the guys. Kendrick got the guys.”

Lucki Attempts To Explain Playboi Carti Misunderstanding After Leaked DMs

Playboi Carti shared a series of direct messages between himself and Lucki on Instagram on Saturday, after believing the rapper dissed him on social media.

Lucki eventually responded to the move in a video on Instagram Story, saying Carti misinterpreted one of his recent posts. “Like I said from the jump, I don’t dislike you,” he began. “You think, yesterday, because I bought a chain and I said, ‘crosses up,’ that I was sneak dissing you because you made a song that said, ‘upside down cross tat’ on my neck,’ but it wasn’t that though. I just bought a chain and was saying, ‘crosses up.’ You just insecure because you don’t love Jesus like that.” Afterward, Lucki shared an old picture of Carti wearing a shirt with “I [heart] Jesus” on it.
