Diddy Accuses Cassie Of Cheating On Him Before His Alleged Abuse
Diddy’s attorney, Marc Agnifilo, reportedly accused Cassie of cheating on his client with her now-husband, during their relationship. Referring to her as “victim one,” at the Bad Boy mogul’s arraignment on Tuesday, Agnifilo said she had been sleeping with her trainer for years, according to Inner City Press. Cassie previously sued Diddy for alleged sexual abuse back in 2023, but the two quickly settled. Months later, CNN published footage of Diddy hitting her at a hotel in 2016.
Authorities arrested Diddy on Monday night while releasing a 14-page federal indictment against him. He’s continued to maintain his innocence and has pleaded not guilty to racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking. “We are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the U.S. Attorney’s Office,” Agnifilo said, as noted by AllHipHop. “Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is a music icon, self-made entrepreneur, loving family man, and proven philanthropist who has spent the last 30 years building an empire, adoring his children and working to uplift the Black community. He is an imperfect person, but he is not a criminal.”

Travis Scott’s “DAYS BEFORE RODEO” Projected To Go Number One Again Thanks To New Wave Of Sales
The reissuing of Travis Scott’s DAYS BEFORE RODEO has been a rollercoaster of emotions. It went from pure jubilance to gut-wrenching heartbreak and anger. Those feelings were certainly prevalent during the uber-competitive race to the top of the Billboard Hot 200 chart. Initially, Travis was behind by 100,000 units to Sabrina Carpenter’s Short n’ Sweet. Then a massive surge in sales eventually projected him to narrowly beat the pop singer. However, due to some recounting, one of Nicki Minaj’s new favorite artists would go onto to hold off the 10-year-old mixtape by just 1,000 copies.
Things would only continue to get worse for La Flame and his fans, though. DBR would then suffer the biggest sales percentage drop-off over the last decade for an album that remained on the Billboard chart. It went from number two to 30, and now, it’s currently at 106, according to HipHopDX. But HITS Daily Double has some incredibly shocking news. With shipments of vinyls making their way to consumers as we speak, DAYS BEFORE RODEO is now looking at a number one projection once again.

This is currently enough to outpace Sabrina, who has been holding the number one spot for three consecutive weeks. Her album is looking to sell around 101,000. Fans make take this news with a grain of a salt, but we would be utterly shocked if Scott didn’t finally get to the top of the heap.

Agnifilo had offered up a $50 million payment for bail and was willing to have his client remain on house arrest in Miami with nonstop surveillance. He still plans to appeal the decision. “He’s going to clear his name and we’re going to stand by his side as he does. We believe in him wholeheartedly,” Agnifilo told reporters afterward. Why doesn’t the government want him to turn himself in? Because then they can’t ask for detention. All we can do is show good faith. He got on a plane and he came here. They arrested a guy who came here to turn himself in.”

Kanye West Accused By Redditors Of Egregious AI Use On “VULTURES 2”
You could make a very good argument that Kanye West (unfortunately) is starting to lose that creative magic he once possessed for so long. Overall, you’re not going to find many hip-hop fans who feel that rapper, singer, and producer had a mediocre record from 2004-2021. However, the conversation surrounding his VULTURES era is vastly different. Yes, there are going to be some way too loyal Ye stans who swear that his last two projects have been good. But in general, both entries into this unfinished trilogy are a far cry from his previous efforts. Many have been fed up with how messy and lifeless the tracks are on them, and diligent Redditors claim to have one major reason as to why.
After receiving VULTURES 2, some listeners felt there was some use of AI, particularly on “SKY CITY” with CyHi’s verse. Users on the forum are claiming that there’s hardly any doubt that these suspicions are true. However, they feel Kanye didn’t stop there. Other tracks include “FIELD TRIP”, citing “rough punch-in vocals of him doing lines Ty Dolla $ign did on the full CDQ leak” as the source. Furthermore, “FOREVER”, which was recently updated with a new Ye verse, sounds off in the cadence and flow department. For this one, they claim to have the exact AI model that was utilized.

Redditors Believe They Have Exposed Kanye West’s AI Usage
Finally, Redditors also feel that they have evidence for a recent unreleased Skepta and Kanye collab. As it stands, contributors are pretty positive that “SKY CITY”, “FOREVER”, and the Skepta track are “almost certainly” containing AI. Then, “FIELD TRIP” and the highly sought after Childish Gambino cut, “Say Less”, are “speculated to be containing AI vocals. Overall, commenters are pretty disappointed as they think that his best days are gone and are missing “the old Kanye”.
What are your thoughts on Redditors claiming to have evidence of Kanye West using AI for VULTURES 2?Are you buying this? Is Kanye starting to fall off, why or why not? Do you think him and Ty Dolla $ign should still deliver the third album in this trilogy? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.
