Drake came through with a surprise earlier this month when he unveiled 100gigs.org, a website that hosted a bunch of previously unreleased material from the rapper. It turns out that wasn’t a one-and-done thing, as Drake has just added a second wave of content to the site.

As Billboard notes, the site was updated on August 25. Among the new content is some Kanye West-related clips from OVO Fest in 2013. In one video, Drake says, “I’m the biggest Ye fan, period. Sometimes I feel like I can’t like it because I gotta go against it. But that sh*t tonight was almost therapeutic.”

Kanye also says in a clip, “Me and Hov wouldn’t have made Watch The Throne if this n**** wasn’t putting pressure on us like that. So I just want to pay my respect.”

There’s also a 2014 video of Drake talking with YG and Mustard, with Drake saying over the phone, “I’m ’bout to send you a verse I did on this beat that Mustard sent me for you. […] I’m just about to record the sh*t and I’ma send it to you. Just get Future to email it and I’ll send you the verse in 30 minutes. […] I’ma send you the sh*t and let’s turn up the summer, I’m ready.”

Times have certainly changed, as Mustard now has no interest in working with “strange guy” Drake.

Drake has shared a video of himself and The Weeknd backstage during OVO Fest in 2013 in which the two appear to not be on the best of terms. The clip starts with Drake dapping up everyone in the room except for The Weeknd and joking with them about his performance at the festival. Right before it ends, he finally acknowledges The Weeknd’s presence.

Fans on social media say it shows that the two haven’t been on good terms for years. “You can tell Abel does not fw him lol,” one user on X (formerly Twitter) wrote in response. Another noted: “Drake a slimey guy. Peep how he cut the footage immediately he acknowledged the weekend and was about to dap him up.” Others reflected on how much they’ve grown over the last decade. “The Weeknd was on the rise back then, and you could just tell he was going to be huge. Seeing this footage now is a reminder of how far he’s come. OVO Fest 2013 was iconic,” one fan added.

The clip comes after The Weeknd dissed Drake while teaming up with Future and Metro Boomin for “All to Myself,” earlier this year. “I thank God that I never signed my life away… They shooters makin’ TikToks / Got us laughin’ in the Lambo (Yeah),” he sang. Drake eventually fired back on “Push Ups.”

Drake & The Weeknd Speak Backstage

The Weeknd isn’t the only artist to make an appearance on 100 Gigs. The Toronto rapper also shared a clip of Kanye West praising him on stage at OVO Fest 2013 as well. West thanked Drake and credited him with pushing himself and JAY-Z to release Watch The Throne in 2011. Be on the lookout for further updates on Drake and The Weeknd on HotNewHipHop.

Several reports have confirmed that the daughter of former Diamondbacks pitcher Greg Swindell has been missing from their Texas home since last week.

The 55-year-old former pitcher says that his daughter, Brenna Swindell, has not been in contact with any of her relatives or any of her three children and her phone has been turned off.

The 1x All-Star said on Sunday that they think Brenna could be with her ex-boyfriend somewhere in Colorado, but said, “we feel she is in danger.”

Greg says Brenna is about 5-foot-5, 120 pounds and has some noticeable tattoos on her arms, including ones of flowers and a spider web. He also thinks she and her ex might be driving around in her white Kia Carnival with the license plate VFS7528.

“Brennie,” he wrote to the public addressing the crisis, “if you see this, we all love you so much and need you home!”

“The Abbott” of the Wu Tang Clan held back tears during the premiere the new Ol’ Dirty Bastard documentary A Tale of Two Dirtys.

RZA was slated to participate in a Q&A panel with the documentary’s producers and members of Dirty’s family in L.A. last week, but declined to sit on the panel at the last minute after becoming overwhelmed with emotion following the screening.

Video footage shows the moment that RZA was called to the stage, but took a second to tell the people on stage that he would not be on the panel because he has “too many emotions running through my head.”

“I’m not gonna stay for the event; I got too many emotions running through my head,” he said. “I just want to thank you guys for a great — it’s my first time seeing the documentary for the first time completed so I got a lot in my head. But good job.”
