  • Pusha T Blasts Travis Scott Over Loyalty Issues: ‘He’s a Whore’

    Pusha T Blasts Travis Scott Over Loyalty Issues: ‘He’s a Whore’

    Clipse rapper accuses Travis of betrayal and siding with Drake in Pharrell feud

    Pusha T has unleashed a scathing attack on Travis Scott, calling the Houston rapper a “whore” and accusing him of disloyalty, manipulation, and shady behavior within the industry.

    In a new GQ interview, Pusha confirmed that his controversial bars on Clipse’s song “So Be It” weren’t aimed at Kanye West, as many believed, but rather at his former GOOD Music labelmate, Travis Scott. The tension stems from Scott’s involvement in Drake’s “Meltdown,” where Drake took aim at Pharrell Williams — Pusha’s longtime friend and collaborator.

    According to Pusha, the drama started in Paris: “We were in Pharrell’s studio, and Travis came through all smiles. He wanted to play us his new album, filming everything… but conveniently left out Drake’s verse.” A week later, Pusha heard the diss — and felt blindsided.

    “He’s done this before,” Pusha said, referencing “Sicko Mode,” where Drake dissed Kanye West. “He has no picks. He’ll do this with anybody. He’s a whore.”

    Pusha didn’t hold back, criticizing Scott’s loyalty and integrity: “That filthy quality… that lack of loyalty. Travis really has that. He’s proven it.”

    Travis Scott has not responded to the remarks.

  • Lil Wayne’s Son Claims His Father Wrote “Most” of Drake’s Lyrics

    Lil Wayne’s Son Claims His Father Wrote “Most” of Drake’s Lyrics

    Novi Carter says Drake wouldn’t be where he is without Weezy

    Lil Wayne’s son, Novi Carter, has sparked controversy after claiming his father ghostwrote “most” of Drake’s lyrics during an interview with YouTuber TrillMarty.

    Novi didn’t mince words: “My dad wrote most of [Drake’s] shit. I mean, on God. Like, if it wasn’t for my pops, there wouldn’t be no Drake. I mean, there probably would be a Drake, but he wouldn’t be where he’s at, though.” He quickly added, “No disrespect to Drake. He hard.”

    While the younger Carter didn’t name specific tracks allegedly written by Lil Wayne, his comments have stirred debate online about Drake’s songwriting credibility — a topic that has shadowed the Canadian rapper throughout his career.

    Neither Lil Wayne nor Drake have addressed the claims, but both artists have consistently expressed admiration for each other. Drake has referred to Wayne as a mentor and idol, once saying, “I still get nervous speaking about this man… he’s still my idol.”

    Wayne, for his part, has defended Drake publicly, even joking about the rapper’s critics: “He red, he light-skinned… that’s just American history.”

    Whether Novi’s comments were exaggerated or not, they’ve reignited one of hip-hop’s oldest debates — who’s really writing the bars?

    50 Cent Defends Tyler Perry Against Sexual Assault Allegations

    Fif’ backs media mogul amid $260M lawsuit filed by former actor

    50 Cent has come to the defense of longtime friend Tyler Perry after the filmmaker was hit with a $260 million lawsuit alleging sexual assault and harassment.

    The suit was filed by actor Derek Dixon, who claims Perry subjected him to ongoing harassment and professional retaliation after rejecting the director’s alleged advances. Dixon worked on several of Perry’s TV productions and now accuses the media mogul of escalating misconduct.

    Perry has strongly denied the accusations through his legal team, calling the case a “scam” and a “shakedown attempt.” His attorney said, “This is an individual who got close to Tyler Perry for what now appears to be nothing more than setting up a scam. But Tyler will not be shaken down and we are confident these fabricated claims of harassment will fail.”

    In response, 50 Cent took to Instagram to show his unwavering support. “Did that b!tch just say what I think he said? Nah, we ain’t jacking this shit gang! No way,” he wrote.

    He later added in a joking post featuring Katt Williams: “Tyler that case bullshit don’t worry about that… he [Williams] gonna have a field day with this.”

    Despite his humor, 50 made his loyalty clear: “Hey I think anyone who talks bad about Tyler Perry should die… you should die now!”

  • SZA Opens Up About Insecurity on Tour with Kendrick Lamar

    SZA Opens Up About Insecurity on Tour with Kendrick Lamar

    The singer admits she feared fans were only showing up for Kendrick during Grand National run

    SZA has candidly shared her initial fears and insecurities while co-headlining the Grand National tour with Kendrick Lamar, revealing that she once believed fans only attended shows to see her fellow TDE labelmate.

    Speaking in a revealing interview with Interview Magazine, the “Kill Bill” hitmaker admitted she struggled with anxiety at the start of the tour. “Every time I had to go on stage or walk a carpet, I’d have full-on panic attacks,” she said. “I used to skip events thinking, ‘No one cares that I’m here.’”

    Her doubts followed her into the tour with Kendrick, who has also drawn major attention for performing his Drake diss “Not Like Us” during their Toronto stop — the rapper’s first visit since the high-profile feud erupted. “Everybody’s going to see Kendrick,” SZA said. “I didn’t know if I had anything worth showing.”

    Thankfully, she now feels more confident: “I want to walk through the door. I want to see what happens in the uncertainty.”

    Meanwhile, Drake reportedly postponed a planned livestream in response to the show, later lashing out at a Toronto politician for attending Kendrick’s performance.








  • Offset Defends Drake Amid Ongoing Criticism: “All That Hating Is Diabolical”

    Offset Defends Drake Amid Ongoing Criticism: “All That Hating Is Diabolical”

    Set calls out T-Pain and others taking shots at the 6 God

    Offset has stepped into the conversation surrounding Drake’s recent wave of criticism, voicing his support for the Toronto superstar and taking aim at what he sees as unnecessary hate.

    Though Offset stayed silent during Drake’s high-profile feud with Kendrick Lamar, he recently broke his silence via Instagram, posting a passionate defense:
    “Da Boy is da boy, shit ain’t gone change. All dat hating on another grown man who do more numbers than everybody is Diabolical !!!!”
    His comment appeared to be a direct response to recent remarks by T-Pain, who’s been critical of Drake on the Crash Dummies podcast.

    T-Pain criticized Drake for not gracefully stepping back from the spotlight, referencing an old Drake quote about bowing out without being pushed out:
    “Drake said, ‘I wanna be one of them people that gracefully bow out and not get kicked out.’ But now he’s like, ‘Hold on, check this out. Let me try one more.’”

    Drake responded swiftly, accusing T-Pain of long-standing resentment:
    “This guy always had resentment for me [laughing emoji]. You can hear it every time he speaks on my name.”

    Tensions between the two artists have simmered for some time, with T-Pain previously claiming that Drake’s collaborative project with PartyNextDoor, $ome $exy $ongs 4 U, was filled with leftover material. Offset’s defense now adds a new layer to the discourse, standing firmly in Drake’s corner as criticism mounts.

  • JAY-Z Joins Beyoncé On Stage in Paris

    JAY-Z Joins Beyoncé On Stage in Paris

    Surprise Performance Marks First Live Appearance Together in Six Years

    JAY-Z made a surprise appearance at Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter tour stop in Paris over the weekend, thrilling fans during the final night of her three-show run in the French capital. The iconic couple, who haven’t shared the stage since 2018, reunited to perform their timeless hits “Crazy in Love” and a mash-up of “Drunk in Love” and “Partition.” Jay also delivered a solo performance of “N-ggas in Paris,” notably without Kanye West.

    While the moment celebrated musical unity, it came against a backdrop of tension involving former collaborator Kanye West. The Chicago rapper, once a close ally of both artists, recently posted on X expressing regret and a desire to apologize to JAY-Z. “All my dreams have been about apologizing to Jay Z,” he wrote, signaling a possible attempt to reconcile.

    However, the path to forgiveness may be complicated. Earlier this year, West faced severe backlash for offensive comments targeting JAY-Z and Beyoncé’s children. Despite deleting the posts, his remarks drew widespread condemnation.

    Neither JAY-Z nor Beyoncé have publicly responded to West’s statements. For now, the Carters seem focused on their artistry—delivering unforgettable moments for fans worldwide.

  • Drake Sparks Controversy by Appearing Onstage with Morgan Wallen in Houston

    Drake Sparks Controversy by Appearing Onstage with Morgan Wallen in Houston

    Drizzy also reveals millions in gambling losses after cold betting streak

    Drake raised eyebrows over the weekend when he made an unexpected appearance alongside country singer Morgan Wallen during a concert in Houston. Though he didn’t perform, the Toronto rap icon joined Wallen and former MLB star Roger Clemens as they walked out on stage, with the moment later shared by Wallen in a backstage clip soundtracked by Drake’s “Under Ground Kings.”

    The appearance was particularly controversial given Wallen’s past scandal involving his use of a racial slur, which was caught on camera in 2021. Despite a public apology, the incident initially sparked backlash but ultimately resulted in a surprising spike in his popularity. Drake, who has previously appeared on livestreams with other polarizing figures such as Adin Ross, is once again facing criticism for seemingly endorsing another white celebrity associated with racial controversy.

    Meanwhile, the rapper is also making headlines for a staggering losing streak in online gambling. A recent Instagram Story showed that Drake wagered nearly $125 million over the past month, losing more than $8 million. One failed bet included $800,000 on the Oklahoma City Thunder in the NBA Finals. Despite past wins — including a reported $40 million haul in early 2024 — Drake admitted, “Losses are so fried right now.”

    Thugger also introduced a new collaboration with rising star Ken Carson, referring to the track as “new shit” during their performance. Though the song’s title wasn’t shared, the crowd quickly latched onto its infectious hook: “My bitch, she bad / She stay stone cold / Where the diamonds at / She inside her nose.”

    The moment marked a full-circle return for Young Thug, who was originally scheduled to perform at Summer Smash in 2022 before being arrested on RICO charges. Elliot Montanez of Lyrical Lemonade called the performance a “beautiful, full-circle moment” for both Thug and fans.

    Thugger also made headlines recently by joking on Adin Ross’ Kick stream about quitting rap to become a full-time streamer. As for Uy Scuti, the release date remains unconfirmed despite Thug’s earlier promise of a June drop.
