Jaden Smith’s Ex-Girlfriend Links Up With Diablo After Cheating Scandal

Jaden Smith made headlines for all the wrong reasons on August 14. The rapper and Will Smith progeny was caught kissing influencer and model Khleopatre. The issue is, he was dating social media influencer Sab Zada at the time. To make matters even worse, Sab Zada was with Smith on the same Ibiza trip in which he was seen cheating. The internet’s judgement was swift, and the relationship between Jaden Smith and Zada remains unclear. It does, however, appear as though Zada is getting back at Smith.

On August 27, Sab Zada posed for photos with rapper Diablo. The two flashed a middle finger to the camera and subsequently posted it to Diablo’s Instagram Story. No caption or additional context, but it doesn’t take a detective to figure out who the fingers were intended for. Jaden Smith’s actions seemed to have a pretty major impact on Sab Zada, and understandably so. The social media influence took to Twitter after cheating rumors surfaced, and voiced her disappointment. “Maybe it’s funny for a moment but after a while, it’s just a reminder of heartache for everyone,” she wrote.

Zada even went with Jaden Smith to the premiere of his father’s film, Bad Boys: Ride or Die. Jaden Smith’s dating history has been widely speculated since he entered the public eye. He famously turned heads in 2018 when he claimed that he was in a relationship with fellow rapper Tyler, The Creator. “Tyler doesn’t want to say but Tyler’s my motherf*cking boyfriend,” he told a concert audience. “And he’s been my my motherf*cking boyfriend my whole f**king life.”

Jaden Smith’s relationship with Sab Zada seemed more substantial. The former would repeatedly post photos of Zada on his Instagram. He also playfully blamed Zada for the delay of his upcoming album. He informed fans that new music was coming, but that he was “distracted” by his girlfriend. “Album soon I been distracted,” he wrote back in February.

J Prince Goes After Lil Woody & YSL Prosecutor In Scathing IG Post

J Prince called out Fulton County Deputy District Attorney Simone Hylton as well as Lil Woody while sharing a clip from the YSL RICO trial on Instagram on Monday night. In the video, Hylton asked Woody whether he recalled comparing Young Thug to J Prince. The witness claimed he didn’t know who that actually was and brought up his previous admission about lying to police about the rapper back in 2015. “I told you for the 10th time,” he stated, as caught by AllHipHop. “I’m gonna tell the police anything, and that’s what I did.”

“Nothing surprises me anymore when it comes to fake-ass people putting my name in their mouth,” Prince captioned his post. “But I still find it very interesting how some prosecutors will go above and beyond the call of duty to try and destroy a man’s life for being inspired by a successful Black entrepreneur like myself. Btw, Black-on-Black racism feels the worst.” He concluded with the hashtag, “#FreeYoungThug.”

As for Woody’s remarks about lying, he made the admission previously during another day on the stand. “The police kept locking me up for whatever they could,” he said. “Every time I counted the door, the police was on me, and they keep bringing up Thug’s name. So what I did was to get ’em out off me, I said, ‘Thug did this. Thug did that. Thug,’ because I knew they were—I knew he didn’t do it.”

J Prince Speaks On The YSL Trial

Prince is far from the first celebrity to speak out in support of Young Thug. In addition to several other hip-hop artists, former President Donald Trump even described his treatment as unfair while speaking with Adin Ross.

Meek Mill Freestyles Over Kendrick Lamar’s “Euphoria” Diss: Watch

Meek Mill is always up to something. The Philadelphia rapper can always be counted on to say or do something that makes fans scratch their heads. Meek Mill decided he want to showcase his freestyle skills on August 26 by spitting a verse over “Family Matters.” Then, a few hours later, Meek Mill came back with another freestyle. Instead of being over a Drake diss, however, the rapper decided to flip the script. He spit over the beat to Kendrick Lamar’s diss, “Euphoria,” instead.

Meek Mill played the “Family Matters” freestyle in a car, which made sense. The rapper decided to get a little more adventurous when it came to “Euphoria,” though. Meek decided to walk through a department store and rap along to his recorded freestyle in public. He documented the whole thing on his Instagram Live. He also provided some context in the form of a written caption. “I did Kendrick and Drake beats for practice,” he explained. Meek Mill is no stranger to rap beef. Especially when it comes to the 6 God. He has weighed in on the Drake and Kendrick Lamar battle via social media, but his overall sentiment was a little confusing.

Meek Mill Praised Both Drake And Dot During The Battle

Meek Mill avoided choosing sides, then proceeded to big up his own battle skills in the process. He also shed light on his PR situation, for some reason. “My PR has been off for a year,” he tweeted back in May. “When I’m gone they will give it up! Ima just keep grinding! [The] boy and Kendrick have their own lanes and qualities they great at also!” To be fair to Meek, he may be ahead of the game, rather than behind it. While “Family Matters” and “Euphoria” are months old, Drake has been hinting at a second round of the battle.

The Toronto rapper posted an Instagram Story of Rasheed Wallace proclaiming: “We will win Game 2.” Fans didn’t have to do too much deep diving to know that he was alluding the Kendrick Lamar battle. Drake took the Instagram Story down shortly after, though, which confounded just about everybody. Meek Mill may have more diss songs to freestyle over, if the 6 God makes good on his quasi-cryptic post.

Big Sean Reveals COVID Diagnosis During Emotional IG Live: Watch

Big Sean has been through a lot since he dropped his last album. He became a father, he quit drinking, and apparently, he suffered from COVID. The rapper hopped on Instagram Live ahead of his new album release and dropped the bombshell news about his diagnosis. Big Sean talked about the various ways in which he feels he’s been tested since 2020. He also relayed the importance of these tests, and the role they play in the lyrical content of Better Me Than You.

Big Sean doesn’t take long to get emotional. Upon reflecting on the last four years, the rapper starts to tear up. He turns away from the camera, and even cuts at one point before walking back into the frame. “When you make art, you put your heart into this sh*t,” he explains. Big Sean then reveals that he is in the midst of recovering from COVID. “When I had COVID last week,” he reveals. “I was down and I was still working on the album.” The rapper then pointed out the irony of his diagnosis, given that his last album, Detroit 2, dropped during the pandemic. “When I last dropped an album, it was COVID,” he noted. “I was excited to plan my release party, I was excited to do all of that.”

Big Sean Is Already Working On His Next Album

Big Sean credits his family with helping him get through such a difficult time. He recalls a phone call from his mother that helped to put everything in perspective. Especially with regards to the release date of the album. “She was giving me them words,” he explained. “And I was just like, look, I can keep working on some sh*t and make it exactly how I wanted. But I’d be pushing it back forever.” He ultimately decided to have faith in the music he had, and put it out August 30. “That’s what I’mma do,” he told viewers. “The album is dropping this week.”

Big Sean also revealed that he’s begun work on his next album. He explained that he kept working while he was sick, and actually has dozens of songs that didn’t make the Better Me Than You tracklist. One of them, evidently, features Fantasia. Big Sean dubbed their collab “soulful,” and hinted at its inclusion on whatever he drops next. The uncertainty over which songs to include makes sense, given that Sean had to deal with Better Me Than You leaking in its entirety. We’re excited to hear the final version.

Drake Follows Kanye West On Instagram After Unexpected Concert Tribute

Drake and Kanye West continue to baffle fans. They are two of the biggest rappers of all time. They have openly talked about the impact that they have had on each other’s careers. And they can’t seem to figure out if they’re friends or enemies. It seemed like there was no chance that Drake and Kanye West would patch things up in 2024. Then, seemingly out of nowhere, Drake started following the Chicago rapper on Instagram. No hoopla or fanfare, but the gestures was so notable thats fans quickly took notice.

There were signs that something was going on. Kanye West performed a staggering, seventy plus song set in South Korea last week. The rapper ran through all of his classic hits, including “I Wonder.” Before he performed “I Wonder,” however, West decided to dedicate the song to his former enemy. “This one for Drake,” he told an understandably confused crowd. Drake didn’t comment on the shout out, but he did include Kanye West in his ongoing “100 Gigs” project two days later. The 6 God posted unreleased footage of himself talking about Kanye West after they performed at 2013 OVO Fest.

Drake Recently Released Footage Praising Ye

In what felt like a very pointed inclusion, Drake gush about Kanye West to his team. “Yo, that was crazy! That’s real rap sh*t,” the Toronto rapper explained. “We don’t communicate with each other enough and sometimes when we get on that stage, it’s an outpouring of emotion.” Drake admitted to feeling a sense of competition with Kanye West, but he also conceded that he’s an enormous fan. “I’m the biggest Ye fan. Period,” he asserted. “Sometimes I feel like I can’t like it because I gotta go against it. But that sh*t tonight was almost therapeutic.” It does really seem like both men are reconsidering their relationship at the moment.

The concert shout out, the footage, and the Instagram follow are a far cry from where Drake and West were at just a few months ago. It’s worth noting that Kanye West was so anti-Drake that he decided to elbow his way into the Kendrick Lamar battle. He dropped a remix to “Like That” in which he attacked Drizzy and his business dealings. He went voiced excitement for the “elimination of Drake” during an accompanying interview. Again: all that happened in April. Maybe we will get Drake and Kanye West music after all.

Quavo Says He’ll “Never Forget” Working With Drake In Wholesome Throwback Post

Quavo showed love to Drake on his Instagram Story on Monday while sharing a video of the Toronto rapper joking about the Migos’ adlibs on stage seemingly ahead of one of their Aubrey & the Three Migos Tour shows. “Never forget what we did gang!!!” Quavo captioned the post. “Migo gang 4L Drake Sinatra.”

When AkademiksTV reshared the post on Instagram, fans in the comments section used it to speak on Drake’s feud with Kendrick Lamar. Lamar had accused Drake of exploiting Atlanta artists to remain relevant on his diss track, “Not Like Us.” One user commented: “Look at that. The biggest artist from the biggest group of the 2010s decade is giving Drake flowers. Bots swear everyone hates him.” Another added: “Kdot thought he could break up his atl connection.” One more fan expanded to say: “It’s funny … people keep saying he used the migos or Atl but all the ATL artist definitely have spoke highly of him and thanked him for reaching out.. but this also goes to show how great kendrick is because he literally painted a narrative that people follow regardless of interviews and people speaking out saying the complete opposite.. n***a rewrote history with a pen.”

Quavo and Drake have collaborated several times over the years, including on a remix to their breakthrough hit, “Versace,” in 2013. They embarked on the Aubrey & the Three Migos Tour together in 2018 in promotion of their two albums, Scorpion and Culture II.
