Drake Appears To Squash French Montana Beef With This Subtle Co-Sign

by

Drake went to war with the music industry in 2024. You could shuffle Rap Caviar playlists and come up with half a dozen rappers who had problems with the 6 God. French Montana was one of them. Despite working with Drake on some of his biggest singles, French reportedly had a falling out with the Toronto rapper early in the year. The issue seemed to stem from a cease-and-desist that Drake reportedly sent French Montana over their planned collab “Splash Brothers.” Things got messy from there. Fortunately, their relationship is seemingly repaired.

Drake took to Instagram on November 20 to repost a promo for of the French Montana documentary For Khadija. The documentary is currently is currently streaming on Paramount Plus, and has been described by French as a tribute to his mother. The mention of a mother-son relationship might have hit home with Drizzy. He spread word of the doc to his 144 million Instagram followers. It’s a nice gesture, and a very unexpected one given the perceived state of their relationship. To be clear, French Montana never came out and dissed Drake directly. The drama surrounding the cease-and-desist stemmed from their mutual friend, Rick Ross. Rozay shed light on this during the outro to his diss song, “Champagne Moments.”

Drake Reposted French Montana’s Doc On Instagram

Drake’s timing proved to be excellent. His French Montana co-sign came out the same that Future and Metro Boomin reflected on the beef via GQ. Future claimed that he took more of an issue with Kendrick Lamar’s decision to exclude him from the “Big Three” than anything Drake said. Metro Boomin, on the other hand, admitted that he regretted making fun of Drake on social media. The social media reaction has not been great for Future or Metro. Many fans believe the two have remorse after seeing the extent of the battle. Others have criticized them for rewriting history to make themselves seem less responsible for what happened.

Drake appears to be entering a new phase of his career. The rapper has struggled mightily to regain his footing after the feud. He’s dropped some forgettable material, and teased a potential “round 2” with K. Dot. The most promising material, though, has been unrelated to the feud. The 6 God claims to have a joint album with PARTYNEXTDOOR in the works. He also posted song lyrics referencing Lil Wayne, and fans are eager to hear the song that accompanies said lyrics. Some fans are merely happy to have the short hair Drake back after the braids era. Hopefully the healing continues on all sides.

Travis Scott Sends Fans Into Frenzy By Teasing New Music: “I’m Coming”

by

Travis Scott had is ready to blow minds. Again. The rapper has not slowed down since the release of his 2023 album, UTOPIA, as she’s spent most of the year touring the world. On Wednesday, Scott opted to close the book on UTOPIA, and look to the future. He confirmed that he would be appearing as one of the headliners at Coachella in 2025. More importantly, though, the rapper took to Instagram to hint at brand new music during the first quarter of the year. A “new chapter” that has fans absolutely thrilled.

The IG post came on the heels of the Coachella announcement. Travis Scott left a comment under the festival sheet with a laundry list of promises. “New chapter,” the rapper wrote. “New performance, new Coachella set by La Flame and Cactus Jack. First of its kind.” Not exciting enough? Scott decided to up the ante by giving fans a tentative start date for his aforementioned “new chapter.” And it’s right around the corner. “PS,” Travis Scott added. “Y’all n**gas got til April cause I’m coming.” It’s impressive that the rapper will reportedly have new music ready in five months.

Travis Scott Told Fans His “Next Chapter” Starts In April

Those who have been keeping up with Travis Scott throughout 2024, however, know that he has been hard at work in between tour dates. The rapper implied that he has been recording songs at every tour stop during his Circus Maximus Tour back in January. A month later, he posted some exciting messages for fans on his Instagram Story. “I love music so f**king much,” he wrote. “And for the record. We will be backkkkkk. I gotta kick a new gear since they think it’s play time.” There was an extended period of time in which Travis Scott was quiet about new music.

All that changed, though, when he gave an interview to Cultured in September. Travis Scott told the outlet that he is absolutely back in “album mode” and is eager to share his new musical direction with the fans. “I’m gonna be back in New York,” Scott explained. “I’m back in album mode. I’ve been working on music and st every day on tour. When I’m doing the stadiums, because they’re sold out, I can see the music for what it is. I’m f**ing amped.” Now that the fans have more information, so are they.

Lola Brooke Aggressively Calls Out Megan Thee Stallion’s Ex During Party

by

Lola Brooke and Megan Thee Stallion have never collaborated on a record, but they are part of the same generation of female rappers who have taken over the game. There’s a general understanding that many of the rappers in this class support one another. We save proof of this pack mentality firsthand on during a recent party. Lola Brooke was captured on an Instagram Story by Pardison “Pardi” Fontaine. Instead of showing love, however, Brooke decided to make her dislike of Pardi known.

Lola Brooke can be seen dancing and minding her own business out on the floor. As soon as she clocked Pardison “Pardi” Fontaine, though, her demeanor changed. She flipped off Megan Thee Stallion’s former boyfriend. Brooke did not want there to be any confusion about her intention, either. She pointed directly at Pardi to make it clear that she was addressing him. Lola Brooke then threw up her middle finger again. Brutal. Pardi was confused by the interaction. “What I do,” he asked. “What i do?” Brooke didn’t clarify what her issue was, but fans assumed it was due to Pardi’s messy split from Megan Thee Stallion.

Lola Brooke Flipped Off Pardi Fontaine During An IG Story

Megan Thee Stallion accused Pardi of cheating on her multiple times. When the former songwriter refuted these allegations, the “HISS” rapper took to Instagram Live to call him out on his gaslighting tactics. “Why are you answering? Why are you trying to make that shoe fit,” Megan asked. “Was it you getting your d*ck sucked in the same spot I was sleeping? If you said it wasn’t you, why the hell is you dissing me?” Megan Thee Stallion’s vitriol has led to her fanbase largely writing Pardi off as a cheater and liar.

Lola Brooke has never publicly commented on the messy split between Megan and Pardi. What she has commented on, however, is the importance of standing by other female rappers. She told USA Today the bond she’s developed with the likes of Megan and Flo Milli are crucial to surviving (and thriving) in music. “It’s something that I feel like I need because guys don’t always understand this,” she explained to the outlet. “No matter what I’m what I’m doing in this world, I do feel like sisterhood is very important.” She definitely lived up to her word when it came to Pardi.

Tyrese Claims He’ll “Shoot, Stab And Kill” To Protect Wealth From Baby Mamas

by

Tyrese Gibson has had a very public and very difficult couple of months. The entertainer was arrested in September after refusing to send child support payments to his ex. People Magazine reported the Fast & Furious star owed a whopping $74K in back child support. The drama was reignited on November 18, however. The entertainer went after the mother of his children on Instagram. He also assured them he was not going to be giving up the money he’s earned.

Tyrese took to social media to set the record straight on his stance. He addressed Samantha Lee and Norma Mitchell, the mother of his children. “Baby mama one and two,” he said. “I ain’t giving you sh*t. Like I fought to earn this life, I’ma fight to keep it.” Tyrese proceeded to get even more extreme with the lengths he would go to “keep” his fortune intact. “I’ma shoot, stab and kill over mine,” the entertainer added. “I’m gonna protect this bottom line at all costs. I’ve earned it and I’m gonna protect it.” The entertainer claimed he’s not going to budge.

This is not the first time Tyrese Gibson has planted his flag in the sand with regards to his fortune. In August, the former singer went on the Breakfast Club to pontificate on all the money’s lost throughout the years. “I’ve lost so much of this sh*t,” he admitted. “I done spent half a million dollars on a f**king watch.” He then told the radio hosts that he wears fake jewelry these days, as a means of protecting the money he has left. “I don’t lose no sleep over trying to win the popularity contest showing up with all this jewelry that I’ma leave on the nightstand,” Tyrese added.

Despite being adamant that he will maintain his wealth, Tyrese has also vowed to provide for his kids. The entertainer clarified his stance in a heartfelt post. “The love that a father can have for his children can’t quite be explained,” Tyrese wrote in the caption. “Whatever the outcome is today…… I am and will forever be their FATHER.”

Offset and Lil Baby reportedly didn’t intend to diss one another with their recent posts on their respective Instagram Stories. On late Friday night, Baby posted a selfie with the caption: “F*ck you 2x.” Two hours later, Offset posted a selfie of himself flipping off the camera with the caption: “Do sum.” Seeing as the two haven’t always been on the best of terms, fans quickly assumed they were dissing each other.

“I thought lil baby and offset was gon stop the beef but I see not,” one user on X (formerly Twitter) wrote in response to the posts on Saturday. Another asked: “Why offset & lil baby beefin?” with several laughing emojis. Rumors of an alleged rift between Baby and the members of the Migos have circulated for years at this point.

I feel like when I comment on something, it makes it bigger. First of all, I really don’t see sh*t on the internet. People send me sh*t and I be wanting to comment, but then I feel like that’s just gonna make it even more… But they know I ain’t got nothing going on with them.”

Tina Knowles Fires Back At Candace Owens For Spreading False Beyonce Rumor

by

Tina Knowles fired back at Candace Owens after the far-right political commentator accused her daughter, Beyonce, of taking $10 million in exchange for her endorsement of Kamala Harris in the 2024 Presidential Election. Owens made the accusation in a video on Instagram, which has since received a “False Information” warning from third-party fact-checkers.

Knowles wrote: “So this has been flagged on Instagram as fake news and taken down. It’s called False Information. Sadly, other platforms with a lack of integrity still have it up. The lie is that Beyoncé was paid 10 million dollars to speak at a rally in Houston for Vice President Kamala Harris. When in fact, Beyoncé did not receive a penny for speaking at a Presidential candidate Vice President Kamala Harris’s rally in Houston,” Knowles wrote.

King Combs Posts Heartbreaking Tribute To His Mother Kim Porter On Her Death’s Anniversary

by

Christian “King” Combs has been dealing with the scandal of his father Diddy’s federal alleged sex trafficking case, but his social media presence can also turn more wholesome. Moreover, he recently took to his Instagram page on Friday (November 15) to post a heartening and sincere tribute to his late mother Kim Porter, who tragically passed away due to pneumonia six years ago. King shared some clips of the two of them together plus some sweet pictures in addition to a heartfelt and heart-breaking caption. Even though the Combs family faces a lot of uphill battles, tough conversations, and intense media scrutiny these days, they recognize the importance of maintaining a united family in remembrance of those they’ve lost.

“I LOVE YOU MOMMY AND I MISS YOU SOOO MUCH!!! [red heart emoji],” King Combs wrote on his Kim Porter tribute post on Instagram. “Every single day I think about you and I wish I could go back in time and feel your love again and hear your voice !! I miss you and I know you are still with me everyday [red heart emoji] [baby angel emoji] #Foreverkp.”

King Combs’ Tribute To Kim Porter

Diddy’s twin daughters Jessie and D’Lila Combs also joined King Combs on Instagram to pay tribute to their mother Kim Porter. “We can’t believe it’s been 6 years without you,” their message on the social media platform kicked off. “We think about you every single second of the day, we love and miss you so much words can’t even explain, we wish you were here with us. But we know your spirit will be around forever!! We Love you Mommy [two red heart emojis].”

Meanwhile, King Combs’ tribute to Kim Porter comes amid federal prosecutors’ accusations that Diddy is trying to manipulate witnesses and jurors in his case. Allegedly, he’s called his family members to organize a positive social media campaign for his birthday and to reach out to alleged victims and potential witnesses to sway the trial in his favor. Of course, these are all just allegations at the end of the day that everyone should take with a grain of salt until the trial develops further.

Quincy Brown Shades Biological Father Al B. Sure Amidst Diddy Drama

by

Quincy Brown’s relationship with his biological father has been well-documented. The actor and singer has spent most of his life with Diddy as his father figure, which has been maintained in light of the recent accusations leveled at the mogul. Quincy is standing by Diddy, and has even appeared in court to show his support. Amidst all the Diddy drama, however, Quincy took time out to do two things. He paid tribute to his late mother and he shaded his biological father in the same Instagram post.

Quincy Brown posted a throwback photo on November 15. The actor can be seen next to his mother, Kim Porter, while sitting in a toy car. “I miss you every day,” he wrote next to a heart emoji. The sincerity of the post checks out, especially with regards to Porter. It was the mention of Al B. Sure, however, that turned the heads of fans. The first part of the caption reads: “Here’s a rare photo of my with my mom and dad.” Seemingly harmless, until one realizes that Al B. Sure is nowhere to be found in the pic. Quincy Brown is calling out his biological father for being absent during his childhood.

Quincy Brown Has Continued To Support Diddy

The tensions between Quincy Brown and Al B. Sure have been particularly high in 2024. In January, Al B. Sure! posted a cryptic message on Instagram alluding to Diddy’s parenting. “Nothing breaks a dad more than seeing his love for his kids turned into a weapon against him,” he wrote. The comment section then filled with users criticizing Sure for being a bad father himself. It probably didn’t help that Quincy Brown wrote an open letter to the singer, criticizing him for being an absentee father, in 2019.

Despite these issues, Quincy Brown claims that he’s still in touch with his biological father. He spoke on their relationship during a recent appearance on the Lip Service with Angela Yee podcast. “He tends to, like, try and do, like, the ‘dad thing’ a lot,” Brown admitted. “But it’s like that’s not really where we’re at in life. Like, we homies more than anything.” Al B. Sure is not endearing himself to his son through Diddy, that’s for certain. The singer implied that the Bad Boy mogul was responsible for putting him in a coma back in 2022.
