DJ Akademiks Claims Rick Ross’ Drake Diss Was Better Than Kendrick Lamar’s, Ross Responds

by

DJ Akademiks has been very vocal about the Drake situation with Kendrick Lamar. Overall, he has Drake winning the feud, although we always suspected that would be true. Akademiks is a huge Drake stan, and he would never go against him. Yesterday, Kendrick Lamar dropped off “Euphoria,” and in the minds of many, Lamar now has the lead. However, Ak begs to differ, and he was making some interesting comments on social media yesterday. For instance, he compared “Euphoria” to the Ross diss, “Champagne Moments.”

In the tweet below, you can see that Akademiks called “Champagne Moments” a better diss record than “Euphoria.” In Ak’s eyes, Ross was funny, while Kendrick regurgitated talking points we’ve already heard. To be fair to Kendrick, what did people expect? “The Story Of Adidon” has broken a lot of people’s brains as to how diss tracks are supposed to go. Regardless, Ross saw this praise from Akademiks, and decided that it would be a good idea to weigh in with more jokes at Drake’s expense.

Benzino’s Alleged Ghostwriter Speaks Out After “Rap Elvis” Controversy

by

Ness Lee, who claims to be the ghostwriter for Benzino’s “Rap Elvis‘ diss track, has come forward to clear the air on the rumors of his involvement. He did so during an interview with Trap Newz Daily in order to clarify that he had nothing to do with dissing the late rapper, Proof, on Benzino’s earlier diss “Vulturius.” The rumors began when a video of Lee working in the studio with Benzino leaked online.

During the interview, Lee began by explaining why he chose to work with Benzino on the new song. “I just wanted to do something historic,” he said. “I felt like I could accomplish writing the greatest diss song toward Eminem. That’s all I wanted to do.” From there, he explained his involvement was never supposed to be known. “It was never supposed to be public that it was me. This is my first interview and probably my only interview about it,” he said.

From there, Lee described Proof as “my big brother,” and revealed the history between the two. “He was eventually going to sign me back in ‘03, he was the first person to show me love in the industry, battle rap or whatever,” Lee said. “I would never disrespect that man like that. I’ve been getting some concerned messages from some of my brothers from Detroit. I had to tell them that I had nothing to do with that one. I physically do not write that basic.”

Ness Lee Speaks Out

Benzino previously denied using ghostwriters to craft his bars on Instagram, earlier this year. “This is Hip Hop, bro. I don’t wanna hear that ghostwriter sh*t,” he said at the time. “Shut the f*ck up, bro. You mad because I’m spitting. I wrote that sh*t.” Be on the lookout for further updates on Benzino on HotNewHipHop.

Playboi Carti Seemingly Dissed Adin Ross & Kick In A Scrapped “Type Shit” Verse

by

A few months ago, Playboi Carti appeared on Adin Ross’ stream for all of 10 minutes. Overall, it was a pretty bad look for Carti, who barely said anything and walked away. Furthermore, it was revealed that Carti was paid $1 million for his appearance. He even demanded another $1 million, but Ross ended up holding down the fort. Ross is still upset at Carti for all of this, especially since Carti promised to be on Ross’ stream again, only to never actually follow through.

Now, it is being revealed that in a leaked verse from “Type Shit,” Carti was looking to diss Adin Ross and Kick’s founder Eddie. “I scammed a billionaire woah,” Carti says in the verse. This line did not make the final track, but it seems to be a very obvious reference to Eddie and how he was able to secure seven figures from him. Fans joked at the time that Carti was a scammer, and he is definitely playing into that trope with this. That said, one has to wonder why Carti decided not to drop this verse as is. Ultimately, it would have certainly caused a stir.

In the end, the song didn’t need the controversy. A collaboration between Future, Travis Scott, and Metro Boomin was always going to be a huge hit. We Don’t Trust You also happened to contain “Like That” and a plethora of other massive songs. Now, Carti fans are just waiting for him to drop his album, that was supposed to come out months ago. There is no telling when it will drop, and some are starting to get annoyed, and understandably so.

Let us know what you think of this beef between Playboi Carti and Adin Ross, in the comments section down below. Do you believe that all of this is manufactured and petty? Will Ross end up making things right with Carti? Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.

Drake has been taking hits from everybody lately, most notably/recently from Kendrick Lamar on the fresh diss track “Euphoria.” Drake seemingly indicated that he’s gearing up to respond, but Rick Ross has advised the rapper to give it up.

In a video shared on social media, Ross addresses Drake directly, saying, “He may not even heard this yet but look, white boy: I know we not friends, but let me give you this advice because you ain’t got nobody around you, you ain’t got no real n****s around you. Let me put it like that: ain’t no real n****s. Stop. Don’t respond. Don’t respond. You ain’t even peep when the intro came on with that Teddy Pendergrass, that was that Black vibe. Don’t do it. Don’t go write an 8-minute verse.”

Ross also addressed Lil Yachty and forgave him for his Drake association, saying, “I know you wanna get that money. You ain’t wrong, n****. Keep buying them big houses.”

Ross, by the way, recently came through with his own Drake diss via “Champagne Moments.” On the track, he goes after Drake with lyrics like, “You ain’t never want to be a n**** anyway, n**** / That’s why you had an operation to make your nose smaller than your father nose, n****.”

The post is one of many seemingly endless jokes 50 has been making at Diddy’s expense as the Bad Boy mogul faces several lawsuits. The trolling reached a new level after Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones Jr.’s claims brought rumors about Diddy’s sexuality into play. 50 has even confirmed plans to work on a documentary about the allegations. The drama all began when Cassie filed a lawsuit against him, last year, accusing him of subjecting her to a “cycle of abuse, violence, and sex trafficking.” The two settled the case just a day after filing. In the months since, several more alleged victims have come forward with stories about Diddy of their own.

Lil Yachty Claims He Accidentally Liked Tweet About Kendrick Lamar Cheating On His Wife

by

Lil Yachty was minding his business yesterday when he ended up getting dissed by Kendrick Lamar. Overall, the Yachty mention on “Euphoria” was short but to the point. Of course, plenty of other artists got it a whole lot worse. In fact, it was Drake who really got the worst of it as Kendrick delivered a six-minute onslaught that was both scathing and downright disrespectful. Although the Drake fans won’t admit it was a good song, the vast majority of hip-hop fans are in awe of what Kendrick did on the track.

Amidst the beef, some fans noticed a peculiar like coming from Lil Yachty’s account. Below, you can see that Yacthy liked a tweet suggesting that Kendrick Lamar cheats on his wife with white women. When this like was made public by the Twitter account @kurrco, Yachty decided to respond. “Shit was an accident lmao,” Yachty wrote. Overall, this is a bit hard to believe, and it is definitely a convenient excuse. Although, no one can actually prove that Yachty is lying, which makes it the perfect cover.

At the end of the day, Yachty is very good friends with Drake. Having said that, it is easy to see how he might be a little bit defensive about everything that is being said here. Regardless, there is no doubt that this feud is getting sent into overdrive. Drake is looking to drop a new diss record, and it should be interesting to see what kind of angle he goes with. As for Yachty, perhaps he can help Drake write a hook for the response.

Let us know what you think about all of this, in the comments section down below. Do you believe that Lil Yachty is telling the truth here? Did he really like this accidentally?

Drake Seemingly Indicated His Next Move In The Kendrick Lamar Feud During A Surprise Nicki Minaj Concert Appearance

The saga continues: Drake and Kendrick Lamar have been embroiled in a feud for a couple weeks now, and after a bit of a wait, Lamar finally clapped back at Drake yesterday (April 30) with “Euphoria.” The world apparently won’t have to wait as long for Drake’s response.

One his Drake’s immediate reactions was to throw a perfectly fitting 10 Things I Hate About You clip up on his Instagram Story. It seems he won’t stop there, though, as he indicated during a surprise appearance at a Nicki Minaj concert last night.

Minaj played Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena yesterday and brought Drake out for “Needle.” At the end of the song, right before he departed the stage, Drake thanked the crowd and seemingly indicated that he was going to get back in the studio to fire back at Lamar: He said, “You know what time it is, you know what I gotta do.”

Minaj, by the way, is involved in some beef of her own right now, with Megan Thee Stallion. The two swapped diss tracks, but things eventually got out of hand when some fans were a little too into it, to the point where the cemetery where Meg’s mother is interred got involved.

Drake and Kendrick Lamar are embroiled in a bitter feud right now, and yesterday brought forth a pretty wild escalation of things. Overall, it was Kendrick who delivered the latest blow thanks to his track “Euphoria.” Although some felt like Lamar may never respond, he did not disappoint. His new song is six minutes long, and there are some pretty scathing bars here that fans are still reeling over. One bar in particular involves Sexyy Red, and how Kendrick believes Drake sees himself as a “bad bitch,” just like Sexyy.

On Tuesday night, Drake was in Toronto where he got on stage with Nicki Minaj at her latest show. As we previously reported, Drizzy has been adamant about what’s next for him. He is preparing his response, and he believes it is going to be a hit. However, there is no telling if this will be the case. In fact, Drake’s appearance alongside Nicki Minaj led to some slick comments on social media. As you will see in the Instagram post below from DJ Akademiks, some fans found themselves leaning into the aforementioned Kendrick Lamar lyric.

“Bro just proved Kendrick’s point,” one person wrote. “2 BADDIES ON STAGE. QUEEN NICKI MINAJ AND BBL DRAKE,” said another. Others were simply quick to declare Lamar the official winner of all of this. “Kendrick cooked Drake as a man, as a father, as a artist, as an actor and as a Canadian,” a commenter exclaimed. “Let’s not distract from the fact that Kendrick bodied drake,” wrote another. Needless to say, fans are putting Drake on the clock. While it may just be recency bias, it looks like fans have Kendrick up in the beef.

Let us know what you think of the diss track from Kendrick Lamar, in the comments section down below. Do you believe that this song is actually the best in the entire beef? Do you believe that Drake will be issuing a timely response to all of this? Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.

DJ Akademiks Mocks Kendrick Lamar Drake Diss, Claims Kendrick Is Rapping Like Carlton From “Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air”

by

DJ Akademiks is easily one of the biggest Drake defenders on the internet. Overall, whenever Drake has found himself in a feud, you can count on Ak to be on his side. Throughout this Kendrick Lamar spat, Ak has remained a proponent of Drizzy’s greatness. In fact, every single day, Ak has put Kendrick on the clock for a response. Well, yesterday, Lamar gave us that response with a 6-minute track called “Euphoria.” Although some were expecting jazz instrumentals and something light, Lamar ended up giving fans a scathing track with three beat switches.

Throughout the song, Kendrick eviscerated Drake for the way he talks, acts, and even dresses. Furthermore, he perpetuated numerous narratives that are already out there about Drake. However, the big difference here is that Kendrick did it in a unique way. At the start of the day, Akademiks was pretty impressed by Kendrick’s response. As the day went by, Ak ended up changing his tune and continued to profess how Drake is on top. In the clip below, DJ Akademiks took it a step further and began mocking Lamar for his flow.

DJ Akademiks Left Unimpressed

Akademiks specifically went after the first part of the song where Kendrick decides to take things lightly. Furthermore, Akademiks went on to compare Kendrick to Carlton Banks from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Of course, this is completely avoiding the next five minutes of the song where Kendrick ups the energy and escalates the bars with each verse. The bias here is clear, but that is what fans were expecting from Ak, and he delivered.

Let us know what you think of DJ Akademiks and his comments pertaining to this diss track, in the comments section down below. Do you believe that he is doing way too much to defend Drake? Do you agree that Kendrick’s response was wack? Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.
