Fresh & Fit Host Myron Gaines Says He Wants To Put Druski Into A “Concentration Camp”

by

The Fresh & Fit podcast, hosted by Myron Gaines and Freshprinceceo (real name Walter Weeks), is one of the more controversial dating-related platforms online right now. After multiple controversies over their misogynistic perspectives and their treatment of guests, they find themselves in a lot of hot water. But that drama is also fuel for some clap-backs. For example, Druski recently made fun of the duo, and Gaines responded with a rant that some might see as a step too far. While it was clearly just a harshly edgy response to a comedian, most people would probably refrain from evoking abhorrent crimes in their responses… But not Fresh & Fit.

“Yeah, Druski made a video on us, that fat bastard,” Myron Gaines of the Fresh & Fit podcast remarked. “[…] Bruh, you’re too much of a coward to even come on our show because of your sponsors and brands. […] I mean, if you took our advice, you wouldn’t have wifed up h*e-a** Rubi Rose. That’s f***ing embarrassing. Dude’s putting videos out, kissing her, doing vacations, all this other s**t. He can sit there and say it was a marketing scheme all day. Bro, those are your lips on her, though, n***a, and that girl’s a wh*re.”

“And you’re fat, at the end of the day,” Myron Gaines continued against Druski. “So, bro, if you’re fat, it’s an auto-L. I don’t take nobody serious that’s fat. How are you 300 pounds trying to talk s**t about me, bro? Talking about enhancers. Bro, if I was President of the United States, I’d have your fat a** in a concentration camp, n***a, where you can concentrate on diet and exercise, you fat f**k. Holy s**t, man. Fat n***as sitting here talking s**t about me, bro. We don’t take y’all n***as serious. You guys are second-class citizens in my society, bro. In my eyes, you n***as are third-class citizens. F***ing ridiculous.”

With these harsh words in mind, we wonder if Druski will respond to Fresh & Fit and Myron Gaines’ rant. He has some other flack to address, but we can’t imagine he would pass up an opportunity to clown this duo again.

Lil Baby Breaks His Silence On Kendrick Lamar Name-Dropping Him On “Not Like Us”

by

Before his two 2025 albums, Lil Baby just underwent a big press run thanks to two revealing and compelling conversations. Specifically, one was with Lil Yachty on his A Safe Place podcast, and the other was with Charlamagne Tha God. As for the latter sit-down, The Breakfast Club‘s cohost asked the Atlanta rapper about Kendrick Lamar name-dropping him on his Drake diss “Not Like Us,” as Baby was one of a few Atlanta MCs that he accused Drizzy of “colonizing.”

“I ain’t really into, like, that side of hip-hop,” Lil Baby revealed concerning Kendrick Lamar’s
“Not Like Us” name-drop. “So I don’t really… You know. [Me and Drake have a] great relationship. Great relationship. It’s just with any situation, like, if you and him was arguing, why the hell you gon’ say me, you know? I don’t be having nothing to do with it. […] To me, like, rap and s**t be my work. It’s, like, I don’t want that type of s**t at work. Even with you saying, like, ‘What’s your relationship with Gunna?’ I ain’t in it for that type of s**t, you know what I’m saying? I ain’t on that.”

Lil Baby Reacts To Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” Name-Drop

Furthermore, this is a particularly interesting answer because he doesn’t really take a side between Kendrick Lamar and Drake, although he mentions his great relationship with the latter. Moreover, it seems like Lil Baby really wants nothing to do with that battle, as it’s none of his business and he didn’t really ask for any smoke. But not everything that he discussed during this current press run has to do with hip-hop fare, as he also opened up to Lil Yachty about balancing the relationship between his children and the Internet.

Meanwhile, all these remarks from Lil Baby provide a lot of interesting context for his upcoming albums, and we wonder if these projects will expand on these ideas in any significant way. A lot happened around his name recently, whether that’s Young Thug’s freedom, their strong bond before and afterwards, and how that relates to Gunna beef speculation. We’ll see how all these narratives evolve and if any Atlanta artist will take a strong stance on “Not Like Us.”

Benzino Clears The Air Around 50 Cent’s Disturbing Video Of His Alleged Manic Episode

by

50 Cent recently concerned a lot of fans after he posted a video of Benzino seemingly suffering a manic episode. Moreover, the rapper claimed that the Source executive‘s girlfriend Ashley Bell filmed him threatening to commit self-harm with a knife “because she called the cops for him allegedly beating her.” Viewer discretion is advised for the second video in the Instagram post linked below, as it’s a very disturbing moment that is not easy to watch. However, it seems like this could be all a big misunderstanding, as Benzino responded on social media shortly after with a video explaining his side of the story.

“Okay, first and foremost, I just want to let everybody know that I’m okay, alright?” Benzino exclusively told The Shade Room about this scary situation according to their report. “Second of all, I want to let everybody know that that was a rehearsal for a Tubi movie, alright? My girl was helping me out, we was doing a script reading, and that was a rehearsal for a Tubi movie. That was a scene from a movie, okay? I would never, ever put my hands on any woman. I’ve never done that in my life. That’s for cowards. And I surely wouldn’t do anything to hurt myself.

“So shout out to all the people that was concerned, but I’m okay, alright?” Benzino continued. “Oh, yeah, and I also want to let Curtis [50 Cent] know, good looking. Thanks, Curtis, for promoting me. Keep on posting me, that’s dope. You know what I’m saying? Here, post this, you want to post something [shows off body]. You know what I mean? I’m in that gym heavy, benching 315. What you doing, Curtis? Anyways, happy holidays to all and stay safe.”

We’ll see what other people have to say about this situation, as folks are very concerned for Benzino and his girlfriend if this video isn’t just a rehearsal. Elsewhere, he’s spoken about wanting to bury past feuds with Eminem and move on from his more controversial or combative antics, so hopefully he’s not lying about this video and this isn’t a destructive bump in the road that he needs help over.

Drea Kelly Explains How Beyonce Deals With The Haters

by

Drea Kelly knows a thing or two about controversial celebrity culture, and the type of scrutiny that public figures get for either justified or unjustified reasons. On that last note, she recently spoke during a conversation with Carlos King on how Beyonce handles her haters and the amount of narratives that launched against her over the years. Overall, it’s not that different from other remarks about trolls and negative energy on the Internet that you have heard from other artists and celebrities in the past. But given where we’re at in 2024, it’s hard not to look at this clip in a darker context.

“Beyoncé don’t even do choreography to her own songs,” Drea Kelly remarked. “You ain’t never seen her do it. She ain’t gon’ never do it. […] It was the joy and the smile on her face that did it for me. ‘Cause it wasn’t like – when I say just smiling, happy, in her peace. ‘Cause I am you, and you are me, ma’am. Honey, they done called her everything from a witch to the Illuminati. So for her to know what it’s like to be in this space where people create this narrative about you, they love to hate you, they say what they want to, but they always lurking and watching what you doing.

“‘Cause y’all haters are the MVP, honey,” Drea Kelly continued concerning Beyoncé. “Y’all have perfect attendance, y’all are employee of the month. Y’all [haters] don’t miss a day to hate and. So to see that, to be, like, ‘What?’ She got it. And again, I’m not one for… Validation is for valet. It’s for cars. So it wasn’t a validation thing. It was woman to woman. Mother to mother. Being in this business. I see you, girl.”

Beyond Beyoncé, Drea Kelly recently responded to people blaming her for R. Kelly’s alleged abuse of their daughter. She said that she did everything she could to get her out of that situation, but the police always told her that there wasn’t much they could do. Sometimes, it can feel like the world is against you.

Memphis Bleek Scolds Van Lathan For Breaking Down Jay-Z Lawsuit’s Allegations

by

There’s still a lot of fallout to wade through when it comes to the sexual assault lawsuit against Jay-Z, which alleges that he took advantage of a 13-year-old girl at a 2000 VMAs after party. Not only does this relate to the barrage of legal updates in this case, but also to how much it divided, shocked, and invigorated hip-hop culture to discuss it. For example, Memphis Bleek recently called Van Lathan out for speaking about Hov’s presumed guilt, and it’s clear that he’s sticking by the Roc. “N***as really tried the god [goat emoji] #MarcyDontRaise Those!!” he tweeted along with some bullseye emojis quote-tweeting the following message: “You a b***h a** n***a for automatically peddling bulls**t, implying that Jay-Z is guilty. @VanLathan.”

“Oh I can actually reply to you,” Van Lathan responded to Memphis Bleek’s scolding over the Jay-Z lawsuit. “The other page has me blocked. I i no way shape or form said he was guilty or innocent. I said they were allegations that would be very hard to prove. Go check the pod. Y’all got c*m in ur ears from d**kriding.”

Van Lathan & Memphis Bleek Clash Over Jay-Z Allegations

Furthermore, this is far from the first time that Memphis Bleek has publicly supported Jay-Z as of late, whether against Van Lathan or otherwise. For example, he backed up the music mogul’s assessment that artists angry at him aren’t angry over what Jay did to them, but rather what Jay didn’t do for them. This radio interview comment resurfaced when Nicki Minaj was going hard at him on social media, and this new darker context also paints them under a particular light. We’re sure that at least a few more defenses and rebuttals will come as this accusation develops in court.

Speaking of which, Jay-Z wants to dismiss the whole thing as fast as possible, so despite Memphis Bleek and Van Lathan’s difference of perspective, they might all land under the same lens. These heavy and very serious allegations formed a bit of a circus online, which will hopefully redirect into more engaged and genuine fan concern. With a narrative as salacious as this, people will always want to dig deeper.

Rick Ross’ New Girlfriend Justice J Williams Addresses Breakup Rumors

by

Rick Ross has been through a couple of high-profile relationships in recent years, so fans sometimes go a bit too hard on whichever woman came next. Now, his current girlfriend Justice J Williams is facing that exact backlash, as trolls apparently told her that their relationship is on a “countdown” until the year. However, she clapped back at these rumors, taking to social media to address people already calling the downfall of their fling.

“When y’all ask me certain things and I don’t answer certain things, it’s because I’ve been delivered from answering certain things,” Rick Ross’ girlfriend Justice J Williams began. “And when I don’t say certain things on social media, it’s because it’s none of your business. You know, what’s in the forefront of my life is Christ. That’s what’s important to me. Image is not important, vanity is not important, people are not important, money is not important. Money is necessary, it’s needed, but is it important? No, because, you know why? It doesn’t go with you. But yeah. You know, I never said that anyone broke up. Don’t come painting a narrative. Don’t do that. I’m still very much happily in my relationship. Sorry. Don’t do that.”

Justice J Williams Defends Rick Ross Relationship

Beyond his girlfriend Justice J Williams, though, Rick Ross might have some other romantic narratives to contend with. NLE Choppa recently appeared in his ex girlfriend’s livestream, and Cristina Mackey seemed quite excited when he walked into her dressing room. It’s probably nothing super serious, but then again, isn’t this the exact thing that social media would take an inch from and go a mile with? That’s exactly what happened, but we doubt that Rozay will ever really address it.

Meanwhile, one of Rick Ross’ other exes – Tia Kemp, the most infamous – called out the age gap between him and Justice J Williams. Their feud had plenty of developments this year, and in fact, they seem more estranged than ever. But maybe Williams is the one to bring that stability, even if she faces a mountain of skeptical haters in her way. We’ll see if there’s any more drama to unpack here…

Safaree Breaks His Silence On Rumors That He Ghostwrote For Nicki Minaj

by

Safaree and Nicki Minaj’s relationship was years ago, but that doesn’t mean that there still aren’t lingering questions about their fling. For one, a lot of fans had brought forth the accusation that he ghostwrote some of her music, a long-standing speculation that he recently pushed back on during the All Things podcast with Keyshia Ka’oir. “No, and I’m glad you asked me that,” the rapper and actor responded when Ka’oir inquired about that narrative. “‘Cause there’s always people who will be, like… First, I never – like, I don’t know if somebody took something I said or flipped it or something.

“She is far more capable to do her own music, which she has and always does,” Safaree stated concerning Nicki Minaj and the rumors that he ghostwrote for her back in the day. “If anything, I was a hype man because I was just always that cheerleader. I was that, like, ‘Yo, did you hear what you just said?’ Yeah, it was just more of, like, a, ‘Yo, wow.’ Nah, and she, you know, she took pride in that.”

Safaree Addresses Nicki Minaj Ghostwriting Claims

As for other recent confessions from Safaree, he reflected on his relationship post-Nicki Minaj with Erica Mena. “I want it to be, like, okay if it’s Fridays, I pick them up from school,” he recently remarked concerning their children. “Then Mondays, I bring them back to school and then it’s like, okay, that’s what it’s going to be. […] I really don’t let [deadbeat accusations] get to me, because I know what’s really going on. And, you know, deadbeats ain’t paying what I’m paying in lawyer fees. It’s so expensive and I hate it so much and I just want it to be black and white. ‘Hey, look, let’s just let it be this.’ The only people that are benefiting from this are the lawyers.”

Meanwhile, beyond Safaree, Nicki Minaj has some other issues to address when it comes to her music. The Barbz expressed disappointment when she didn’t drop PF2: The Hiatus this week, although others expressed more forgiving attitudes. The Trinidadian femcee is a songwriting machine, so fans can only wonder what caused this move.

Akbar V Mentions Biggie’s Late Boyfriend In Fiery Diss Track Response

by

Things got heated during an episode of Baddies Midwest this month when Akbar V got into it with Biggie. Jaidyn Alexis intervened and began to argue with Biggie, resulting in an intense confrontation. Biggie proceeded to preview a diss track about Akbar, which quickly earned a response. In a lengthy social media post, Akbar claimed that their feud was just a storyline for the show at first, but now it appears to be very real.

“Listen me and biggie never had no real issue we talked bout a story line she do this all the time to ahna and Teseki it’s becoming a sad case she has to stop the sympathy card,” she wrote in part. “When you go to studio and diss me u gotta be prepared for me cuz ion have no limits … hiphop it’s not a sympathy sport it’s Barz.” Clearly, Akbar meant what she said. Recently, she dropped a diss track of her own and didn’t hold back in the slightest.

Akbar V Doesn’t Hold Back

In it, she calls out Biggie for her size, name-drops her late boyfriend Dante, and more. So far, the track has earned mixed reactions from social media users. While some think she snapped, others think she could have taken things too far, particularly by mentioning the dead. “Damn I don’t like akbar but you cannot deny shorty spit absolute snap fangs! VENOM! lol,” one Instagram user writes in The Neighborhood Talk‘s comments section. “Akbar ate her up, biggie should’ve just sat this out,” another claims.

Akbar even joined the conversation to clear the air, as some listeners took issue with her dissing Biggie’ for her size. “I love my big girls i use to be big and im still big mama but ion play when it comes to this pen ❤❤ i love yall,” she wrote.

Papoose Claims He Knocked Out Eazy The Block Captain Amid Remy Ma Cheating Scandal

by

Remy Ma and Papoose have been together for over 15 years, but trouble in paradise has finally caught up to them after months of rumors. Moreover, Remy just exposed Pap for allegedly cheating on her with Claressa Shields after folks speculated for over a year that she allegedly cheated on him with battle rapper Eazy The Block Captain. In fact, the Brooklyn MC roped these allegations into this current scandal, with him claiming that he knocked Eazy out. It’s all a pretty nasty situation that’s playing out explosively online, and we wonder if the parties involved will ever ease up on this combativeness.

“While I was at home with my daughter last Christmas. This is where @remyma was,” Papoose captioned a picture of Remy Ma and Eazy The Block Captain on Instagram. “Now that I FINALLY moved on she’s angry & making up lies. #Narcissist I told her we could divorce like adults. She refuses to do that because I wouldn’t lie & say I didn’t knock this chump out. I still got the messages of her begging me to lie about the knockout. But who cares!

Papoose Allegedly Knocked Out Eazy The Block Captain For Sleeping With Remy Ma

“He didn’t throw 1 punch back #supersoft,” Papoose continued concerning Remy Ma and Eazy The Block Captain. “Last time I saw this chump, he was in the fetal position. Everybody saw it! When I knocked him out @remyma woke him up. And went home with him for 4 days. I went home with my daughter! As you can see she couldn’t wait to lie about it again. SMH #narcissist I didn’t knock him out because he slept with my wife. I knocked him out because he shook my hand. And then slept with my Wife. #xwife #narcissist.”

Meanwhile, Remy Ma accused Papoose of threatening her with revenge porn amid this Claressa Shields cheating scandal. Either both of them are guilty of cheating or one of them is lying about the other’s situation, and we’re sure that the near future won’t clarify this as clearly as fans would like. After all, a lot more accusations could emerge in this back and forth, so we just hope that they resolve this amicably at some point down the line, especially after such a long relationship.

Fat Joe Seems To Shade Chance The Rapper While Addressing Grammys Loss

by

It seems like Fat Joe still has a sore spot over losing a Grammy to Chance The Rapper back in 2017, as he recently expressed this disappointment during a sit-down conversation. However, it seems like Joey Crack has a particular issue with the “3333” MC given his language, which seems to go beyond typical jealousy, frustration, or indignation. “All The Way Up” lost to Chance’s “No Problem” for Best Rap Performance, whereas it lost to Drake’s “Hotline Bling” in the Best Rap Song category.

“We got robbed,” Fat Joe said of his two Grammy-nominated tracks, one of which was “Lean Back” with Remy Ma and Scott Storch in 2005 and the other of which was “All The Way Up” with Remy Ma, French Montana, and Infared in 2017. “‘Lean Back,’ we lost to the Black Eyed Peas, I don’t know if you know…. And then we lost ‘All The Way Up’ to Chance The Rapper. Like, that’s the biggest disrespect. Let me tell you something. No, I’ma keep it real with you. You know how Jay-Z used to say, you know, ‘Got to learn to live with regrets‘? I can’t live with that one. Losing to Chance The Rapper, ‘All The Way Up,’ or whatever his s**t was, it was just not that, right? […] It’s crazy. The Grammys have been playing with us the whole time.”

Fat Joe Seems To Have A Problem With Chance The Rapper

We don’t know if Fat Joe really has a problem with Chance The Rapper or if he just really wanted his Grammy, but we doubt that either rapper will clarify this. Maybe they do speak on some tension further down the line, but it doesn’t sound like a likely scenario. After all, they both probably have a lot more to focus on these days, such as new projects and extracurricular endeavors.

Meanwhile, Chance The Rapper is not the only 2010s superstar that Fat Joe recently spoke on. He also told Big Boy about his thoughts on the Kendrick Lamar and Drake battle, how he thinks it was successful, and what its impact created. We’ll see if the Terror Squad lyricist has anything to say about “Not Like Us” and “Like That” at the Grammys next year.
