Life for Lil Tjay has never been the same since he almost lost his life in a brutal shooting last June. Thankfully, the young entertainer has made an impressive recovery and spent much of this summer performing on stages across the globe. That trend continued this past weekend, though the high of putting on another great show was seemingly diminished by some drama with another artist – YK Osiris. According to alleged screenshots posted on Tjay’s Instagram Story on Sunday (October 1), the 25-year-old has been spamming his phone with unkind messages.

“Scary a** ni**a. [You] so scared of me lol ,” Osiris seemingly messaged Tjay. “Lol . It’s ok, I’m not gonna slap [you] lol. Imma spare [you], you my son lol,” the “Dear Fans” artist assured the young rapper. “I know [you] scared man . Lol [you] need another hit man. Lol [you] trash [as f**k] lol ,” YK’s tormenting continued. At this point, Tjay calmly responded, “Don’t mind me bro. Please stop texting me.”

Lil Tjay Wants YK Osiris to Leave Him Alone

Osiris failed to comply with his op’s request, writing back, “Lol [you] need one man. That money [gonna] run out lol. Stop spending it on h*es man, not good.” Once again, Tjay asked the Florida native to leave him alone, but YK couldn’t help but throw in one more diss. “Lol . [You] flopping man,” he boldly declared. When sharing a screenshot of the awkward interaction on IG, the 22-year-old said, “I keep blocking this ninja . Lol, someone tell Osiris leave me alone . WTF.”

Lil Tjay clearly has no problem putting YK Osiris on blast, which seems to be the opposite of what the latter is going for lately. Last month, the R&B artist made a point to apologize to the barber he was accused of scamming, declaring himself a “genuine” person at the same time. Read what else YK had to say about the situation at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Flopping Could Soon Earn A Charge

First reported by Shams Charania of The Athletic, the league is exploring the possibility of implementing a punishment for flopping. According to Charania, the NBA is considering testing a rule change to implement a technical free throw for the charge of “flopping”. Furthermore, this could be tested as early as the Las Vegas Summer League in June.

The proposed change comes a few weeks after Steve Kerr publicly begged the NBA to address the issue. “I think, to me, what I’ve learned coaching in FIBA … There’s a flop rule. If a referee deems a player has flopped, they just call it a technical foul, and it’s pretty penalizing. And so the flopping has basically been eliminated from FIBA, and we have the ability to do the same thing in the NBA if we want. I think we should address it, because the players are so smart, and the entire regular season is about gamesmanship and trying to fool the refs. And this is how it’s been for a while, and it’s up to us as a league. Do we want to fix this? … These are all things that are my personal plea to the NBA. I think we can do better in terms of cleaning up the flopping. In the meantime, I give the Lakers credit for the plays that they’ve been able to sell.”
