50 Cent Teases Doc On UnitedHealthcare CEO Shooting Suspect: “He Is Special!” 

50 Cent is already issuing his apologies after revealing his plans to make a documentary about Luigi Mangione, the suspect in the fatal shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. 

The rapper and film and television mogul took to Instagram on Tuesday (December 10), to share the idea. 50 Cent posted an image of a portion of the 262-page manifesto allegedly found on Mangione when he was detained Monday (December 9). 

“I don’t know, I kinda like this killer,” he captioned the since-deleted post. “I’m sorry this is going this way it is but I’m doing a documentary on him, he is special! I apologize in advance for anyone who doesn’t understand.”

The section shared by the G-Unit boss reads: “To the Feds, I’ll keep this short, because I do respect what you do for our country. To save you a lengthy investigation, I state plainly that I wasn’t working with anyone. This was fairly trivial: some elementary social engineering, basic CAD, and a lot of patience. The spiral notebook, if present, has some straggling notes and To Do lists that illuminate the gist of it.” 

Authorities arrested 26-year-old Luigi Mangione at a McDonald’s in Altoona, Pennsylvania, in connection to the fatal shooting. He was apprehended after an employee recognized him from media coverage and alerted police. 

Along with the alleged manifesto and multiple fake IDs, authorities seized a 3D-printed “ghost gun” equipped with a suppressor, consistent with the weapon used in the shooting. They also recovered clothing and a mask matching witness descriptions of the suspect. 

Luigi Mangione Charged In Connection With Death Of Brian Thompson

On Tuesday, Mangione, a former data engineer and Ivy League graduate was charged with murder in the death of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in New York on December 4. He was denied bail and is fighting extradition to New York. 

He made a scene in front of reporters as he arrived for his extradition hearing this afternoon, yelling, “It’s completely out of touch and an insult to the intelligence of the American people.” 

50 Cent’s announcement about a possible documentary on the CEO shooting suspect arrived on the same day he launched his new free live TV channel, 50 Cent Action Channel on Roku. 

G-Unit Film & Television partnered with Lionsgate. The channel will feature the production company’s catalog of over 2,000 titles in addition to films curated by 50, including movies he’s starred in.

Floyd Mayweather Breaks Silence Following Altercation With Angry Mob In London 

Floyd Mayweather was doing some jewelry shopping in London when he was confronted by an angry mob and forced to make a sharp exit. 

The boxing legend was browsing the stores in London’s historic jeweler quarter, Hatton Garden, on Tuesday (December 10). He appeared to be window shopping, eyeing up potential when things went left. 

Footage surfaced online showing a chaotic scene with a large mob surrounding Mayweather. In one clip, Mayweather is seen arguing with the group as his security attempts to bundle him into an awaiting vehicle. 

Tensions escalated as the hostile crowd jeered and heckled the champion fighter as his entourage tried to get Mayweather off the scene. 

While it’s unclear what kicked off the confrontation, a rep for Mayweather reportedly claimed it stemmed from the boxer’s support for Israel amid the conflict with Palestine. 

Additionally, a member of his security team reported the 47-year-old was subjected to racial slurs. Multiple witnesses alleged Mayweather was physically attacked during the incident. 

However, Mayweather denied the rumors in a statement on Instagram Tuesday evening.  

“Let me set the record straight,” he began. “There’s no truth to the rumors going around. I wasn’t punched or touched in any way. What you’re seeing is just my security doing their job to keep things under control.” 

Floyd Mayweather said he was in London for a spot of shopping, but “unfortunately, people let jealousy and negativity fuel false stories.” 

He concluded his statement by insisting, “I’m perfectly fine,” before putting the matter behind him.

Ben Baller Addresses His Kendrick Lamar’s “GNX” Criticism Amid Drake Bias Backlash

Ben Baller has changed up his tune when it comes to his previous criticism of Kendrick Lamar’s surprise GNX album after being accused of favoring Drake over the West Coast MC.

The well-known celebrity jeweler and cultural commentator didn’t hold back during a fiery segment on his latest podcast episode addressing the backlash he’s facing after admitting to skipping all the songs on GNX.

Critics accused him of being biased due to his longstanding ties with Drake, one of his high-profile clients, but Baller came armed with receipts and a sharp tongue.

“I think people got me f##### up saying that, you know, I was hating on dude,” Ben Baller started off. “I said I skipped every track. It’s not really too much I like, right? I like ‘squabble up.’ There’s a couple things here and there.”

Dismissing claims that he’s a “Drake d#ck rider,” Baller explained that his history with Kendrick Lamar and Anthony “Top Dawg” Tiffith of Top Dawg Entertainment (TDE) runs deep.

“I’ve known Kendrick for 20 years. I’ve known Top, m############ TDE, for 20 years,” he emphasized. “Two T’s is in my motorcycle gang with me. We in the same g###### motorcycle gang, and Two T’s is Kendrick’s right-hand man and Top’s right-hand man.”

He reinforced that their relationships are solid, saying, “We all cool. We good.”

However, Baller had sharp words for those who jumped to conclusions about his comments. “You say s##t, and people say stupid things like, ‘F#ck you, GNX.’ You don’t f##king know my relationship with Kendrick,'” he declared.

There’s no denying that the bond between Baller and Lamar runs deep, as well as his connections to TDE. Earlier this year, ScHoolboy Q laughed with the Baller during a podcast interview about he and his associate’s plans to rob the jewelry designer more than 10 years ago when he was still an up-and-coming rapper.

Earlier this summer, Baller revealed he designed the custom iced-out crucifix chain Lamar wore during his celebratory Juneteenth concert during which he trolled Drake over the 2Pac’s ring that he purchased at an auction.

“L.A. went crazy tonight,” he tweeted. “And Dot had my ice around his neck all night. $600k cross shuts it down. Nobody better and he knew who to call.”

It’s also worth noting that Baller also has extremely close ties with Drake, who’s been a client for more than a decade. In a 2011 tweet, he shared an image of Drake rocking a pair of pieces he crafted for the Toronto rap star while roasting Drizzy haters in the process.

“My homey @champagnepapi rockin a thermal by polo, vest by moncler, watch & Cali chain by me, hating by you,” he wrote in the caption of the post.

J. Cole’s Manager Reveals Dreamville Fest Is Coming To An End

J. Cole’s manager, Ibrahim Hamad, has revealed his true feelings about Dreamville Fest amid the news of its upcoming discontinuation.

On Tuesday(December 10), the celebrated music event founded by rapper J. Cole and his Dreamville record label announced its fifth and final iteration will take place in April 2025, bringing an emotional close to one of North Carolina’s most iconic cultural gatherings. Hamad, who’s also the president of Dreamville Records, shared heartfelt reflections on social media following the announcement, thanking fans and the festival team for their contributions to its success.

“Thank you, North Carolina,” Hamad wrote in a tweet. “Thank you to everyone who’s travelled from all over the last 4 years to enjoy our little family reunion. This Festival is something a lot of people have been working very hard to bring you, and it’s honestly been a dream come true seeing the impact.”

Hamad expressed his appreciation for the effort behind the scenes and the fans who made it all worthwhile in a follow-up tweet.

“I love y’all for real,” he continued. “Y’all don’t know how hard and how much work it takes to bring y’all this event, but just know y’all make it more than worth it every year. I can be here all day if I have to name everyone that works they ass off for this, but we gon celebrate this one. Love.”

The Dreamville Festival first launched in 2019 and quickly earned a reputation as a must-attend event for music lovers across the globe. Held annually in Raleigh, North Carolina, the festival brought together fans of Hip-Hop, R&B and more for a weekend of stellar performances and community vibes.

Over the years, its stages have hosted some of the biggest names in music, including Drake, USHER, Burna Boy and, of course, J. Cole alongside appearances from the entire Dreamville roster. While fans are sad to see it come to an end, Hamad’s words suggest 2025 will be a celebration to remember.

Megan Fox & MGK Split—Blood Drinking Ritual Failed?

Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly, whose whirlwind relationship has consistently drawn public attention, are once again making headlines after reports claim the pair have parted ways.

The breakup came shortly after the couple announced they were expecting their first child together.

The Transformers actress, 38, and the 34-year-old rapper reportedly called it quits over Thanksgiving weekend while vacationing in Vail, Colorado.

The outlet reported Tuesday that Fox discovered “material on MGK’s phone that was upsetting,” prompting her to ask him to leave the trip early.

MGK complied, and the couple, who were engaged in January 2022, has reportedly not seen each other since.

While reports painted a picture of an allegedly abrupt split, Us Weekly offered a slightly different perspective, suggesting this could be yet another bump in an already turbulent relationship.

“The pair could very well be back together” in the future, their sources claimed, leaving fans questioning the finality of the breakup. Fox and MGK’s relationship has been nothing short of dramatic.

The two began dating in 2020 after meeting on the set of the indie film Midnight in the Switchgrass.

Following two years of public displays of affection, matching outfits, and their joint love of metaphysical symbolism, the couple briefly broke up in March of 2022 before reconciling.

Just last month, Megan Fox made waves by announcing her pregnancy with a bold, nude photoshoot that highlighted her growing baby bump, as well as by sharing a photo of a positive pregnancy test.

Fox, who shares three children with her ex-husband, Beverly Hills, 90210 actor Brian Austin Green, now faces questions about her future with Baker, who is father to 15-year-old Casie from a previous relationship.

Meek Mill Attacked By Scandal Ridden Ex NFL Star Over Reaction To JAY-Z Allegations

Former NFL player Le’Veon Bell is rehashing the allegations against Meek Mill and simultaneously the ones against himself as the news cycle surrounding the recently refiled sexual assault lawsuit against JAY-Z and Diddy continues.

In a string of Instagram Story posts he shared on Tuesday (December 10), Bell roasted Meek Mill over several of his recent remarks on Twitter. In his initial posts, Bell appeared to drag the Philadelphia rapper over his comments regarding the “matrix” that spawns from “false narratives” that arise after a major celebrity such as JAY-Z being named in a lawsuit.

“Meek probably need to sit this one out.. lol,” Bell wrote in a post featuring a screenshot of the tweet interposed over a photo of the pair. He added in the caption, “He really doesn’t want to beat them allegations does he?”

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by AllHipHop (@allhiphopcom)

Bell continued in a follow-up post in which he trolled Meek Mill over his denial about selling out for money or fame.

“Meek so funny bro,” he said before following up in another post in which he made fun of the “Dreams And Nightmares” rapper over his viral bunny hopping video shared by his billionaire friend Michael Rubin.

“Ain’t sell your soul, huh?” he quipped in the caption of the post.

After posting his cyber assault on Meek Mill, Bell proceeded to send a direct shot at HOV in a meme depicting the Roc Nation mogul as the fictional character Tyrone Biggums from Chappelle’s Show.

“Got anymore of them pardons,” the meme reads, to which Bell appeared entertained by and wrote “I’m crying” in a caption in response.

And while it may appear all fun and games for Bell, he may not want to attempt to call individuals out over the allegations they face, considering he has barely escaped the woodwork stemming from a scandal of his own which erupted on Twitter last month. a Twitter user whose handle is @lexishexx set out on an initiative to put men on blast for reaching out to her via direct messages, despite spewing transphobic remarks to their following. The user indicated that they were moved to call out the individuals, who are both everyday average Joe’s and celebrities, over their collective support for Trump.

“Outing all DL [down low] men including celebrities that ever hit me up and post about Trump idgaf,” Lex wrote in their initial tweet.

Lex used the tweet as a springboard to outing Bell as one of the users who are transphobic on their timelines, yet also allegedly fetishize her in private. In doing so, she shared a screenshot of a DM from him and, as a result, Bell became the sole perpetrator to be wrapped up in the campaign that has since gone viral.

NBA Youngboy Sentenced, Fined And Gets Long Probation

Rapper NBA YoungBoy struck a deal with prosecutors that resulted in a 23-month federal prison sentence on Tuesday (December 10), following guilty pleas to firearms charges linked to separate incidents in Louisiana and Utah.

The 24-year-old, born Kentrell DeSean Gaulden, entered a plea agreement in U.S. District Court for the District of Utah, admitting to two counts of felon in possession of a firearm.

Central to the case was the discovery of a Glock .45-caliber pistol and a Masterpiece Arms 9mm weapon featured in a Louisiana music video in 2020, as well as a Sig Sauer 9mm handgun found during a 2024 search of Gaulden’s home in Utah.

Federal documents presented in court outlined how NBA YoungBoy, previously convicted of aggravated assault with a firearm in Louisiana, was barred from possessing any weapons.

His legal troubles began in September 2020 when police in Baton Rouge arrested him during the filming of a music video. Investigators later tied two firearms to the rapper.

Years later, in Utah, law enforcement serving a federal warrant at his Huntsville residence discovered another pistol.

Under the terms of the agreement, NBA YoungBoy was credited for time served since May 2024.

The deal also includes a five-year probation period upon his release, during which he must adhere to strict conditions.

Additionally, NBA YoungBoy was fined $200,000 and agreed to forfeit the firearms seized during the investigation.

Stunning Allegation From JAY-Z’s Legal Team Exposes Tony Buzbee

JAY-Z’s legal team alleges that Anthony Buzbee, the attorney representing the plaintiff in a high-profile lawsuit against the music mogul, is orchestrating a campaign of fabricated claims in an attempt to extort millions.

The accusations were filed in a New York court, where Jane Doe—a pseudonym for the plaintiff—claims the rapper and entrepreneur, along with Sean “Diddy” Combs, assaulted her after an MTV awards afterparty in 2000.

Attorney Alex Spiro, representing JAY-Z, outlined severe allegations against Buzbee’s firm in new court filings, claiming a previously anonymous woman approached the firm with unrelated charges of abuse and trafficking.

According to one of JAY-Z’s other lawyers, Mari Henderson, the woman’s testimony disclosed that she was pressured by Buzbee’s team to falsely implicate the Roc Nation boss and other high-profile figures in exchange for pursuing a lucrative civil case.

“The woman spoke with three members of Mr. Buzbee’s firm and provided details regarding her experiences as a victim of trafficking by celebrities entirely unrelated to Mr. Combs (or Mr. Carter), and she was told they would take on her representation,” JAY-Z’s lawyer Mari Henderson explained. “After detailing her experiences to an attorney at Mr. Buzbee’s firm, he pressed for a connection to Mr. Combs, asking ‘at what point did you meet Diddy,’ even though she made clear that her case was unrelated to Mr. Combs.”

“Mr. Buzbee’s firm pressed for this woman to pursue a civil case as an anonymous Doe plaintiff, even though she never raised proceeding anonymously as a possibility and questioned doing so after it was heavily suggested to remain doing so, even though she was not interested in remaining anonymous at the time,” Henderson added.

https://youtu.be/cpTmufxRn0A

Henderson said members of Buzbee”s lawfirm dissuaded her from going to law enforcement.

After not hearing from the law firm for weeks, the anonymous woman contacted members of the Buzbee firm, who allegedly “pressed her to confirm false details regarding her experiences as a victim, including that she was drugged, held down, pushed, and physically assaulted.”

“When the woman made clear she was unwilling to adapt to the narrative Mr. Buzbee’s firm laid out and wanted only to speak her truth, she was dropped as a client and told that Mr. Buzbee’s firm was unwilling to represent her any longer,” Henderson said.

The woman said now she is terrified that she will be retaliated against by Tony Buzbee.

Spiro stated in a letter sent to Judge Analisa Torres that this account reveals a troubling strategy engineered by Buzbee’s team to leverage celebrity notoriety for financial settlements.

In the ongoing legal proceedings, JAY-Z’s attorneys have filed a separate motion asking the court to deny Jane Doe’s request to remain anonymous.

Spiro has argued that transparency in the case is paramount, contending that anonymity allows allegations to go unchallenged, unfairly tarnishing reputations without sufficient evidence.

JAY-Z has categorically denied all allegations and labeled the case and Buzbee’s alleged actions as “a shakedown.”

The court has yet to decide on the motion regarding anonymity.

 

Cardi B Reveals She Was Reported To CPS Over Newborn—Denies Her Children Are Being Abused

Cardi B has once again found herself within the crosshairs of a state-run watchdog agency, but this time, it’s causing a full-blown war of words and emotions.

During a recent Instagram Live session, the rap superstar launched into a furious rant alleging that Child Protective Services (CPS) has been harassing her and her family in what she described as an ongoing nightmare fueled by baseless claims and social media trolls.

The saga began in October after Cardi revealed an anonymous individual reported her to CPS, alleging her children had been abused amid her spats online with a YouTuber and her own fans.

A post shared by AllHipHop (@allhiphopcom)

Now, the “WAP” rapper has revealed that CPS has returned to her home following their initial visit and apparently pressured her to investigate her home, examine her children and demand information about her newborn daughter with Offset. In her impassioned rant, Cardi B wasted no time venting her frustration with CPS and authorities as a whole.

“A month later, because I didn’t give them my kids’ information, now they want to fake come back to my house again, interview my kids, look at my kids,” Cardi began. “Why are you harassing me for my daughter’s information? What that has to do with anything? My daughter doesn’t even have a social security because I don’t want nobody knowing her name, her information, anything.”

The drama doesn’t stop at bureaucratic intrusion. Cardi B revealed that false alarm calls to their Georgia home have previously escalated to dangerous levels.

“I remember this one time that they called the cops saying that somebody got shot in my house in Georgia,” she shared.

The alleged hoax resulted in armed officers storming the property and an intense standoff involving Offset’s uncle.

“There were cops that went to my house with rifles putting guns on Offset uncle’s head,” she said. “We stay quiet about it every other time people are calling the cops on our house.”

The situation has pushed Cardi to the brink, with her motherly instincts fully activated as she fiercely defends her children.

“None of my kids have ever got touched,” she said. “None of my kids ever got a little pow-pow, a little whooping, a little nothing. None of that. On my mama, whoever the f##k you is, you probably a b##h, n###a. Or a fan. Whoever the f##k did this, on my mama, real bad crosses finna come to your way. Real bad crosses.”

Cardi B has been dealing with a number of issues surrounding her privacy and her children in a very public fashion recently. In another similar livestream, she clapped back at a troll who suggested she needed a DNA test for her daughter with Offset and additionally addressed Nicki Minaj’s Barbz over claims they were creating AI-generated images of her children being abused by their father.

50 Cent Defends Drake Over Explosive Industry Allegations: “They’re Guilty” 

50 Cent is speaking up for Drake following his legal action and Universal Music Group and others, insisting the Toronto native is right and music industry executives are guilty of everything he’s accusing them of.  

50 Cent addressed the petitions during a recent interview on Big Boy TV. He began by suggesting record labels might intervene if a particular artist becomes too successful.   

“I think it’s a point where you win repeatedly, to the audience and even the artist community is going, if you win again, how I’ma have my chance to win?” he stated. “So they would rather see Kendrick in that slot and Drake, you get out of here.” 

50 Cent continued backing Drake and insisting he had a valid argument.  

“That’s really the way it goes,” he added. “What he’s saying the system’s done, they done that. They’re guilty of what he said they did.” 

Earlier this month, Drake sent shockwaves through the music industry with his bombshell petitions accusing UMG of illegally boosting Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” and the Compton MC of defamation for “falsely accusing him of being a sex offender.” 

50 Cent went on to compare his past feud with The Game to Drake and K. Dot’s battle.  

“While I am Interscope, they are G-Unit and G-Not at the same time,” 50 added. “On the same system, the same person delivering the record telling you to play 50 Cent is delivering the record saying play [The] Game. And it’s just business. They are looking at it like it’s business.” 

Nonetheless, 50 Cent conceded that Drake would also have benefited from any advantages K. Dot received. 

He added, “But everything that they said that they did for Kendrick is something they did for [Drake].” 

Understandably, unlike 50 Cent, Pusha T was not so quick to defend Drake. He recently claimed K. Dot was “really talking to his soul,” on “Not Like Us,” leading Drake to take legal action. 

Check out Pusha’s remarks below and Fiddy’s comments in the video above. The Drake and Kendrick Lamar discussion begins around the 24:00 minute mark.  

Snoop Dogg & Dr. Dre Preview “Missionary” Short Film With High-Octane Trailer 

Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre are giving their fans a taste of what to expect from their upcoming collaborative album, Missionary, just days ahead of the slated release.  

The iconic West Coast duo have been heavily promoting the project for months—Snoop’s first album entirely produced by Dr. Dre since the legendary Doggystyle in 1993—but the rollout shows no signs of slowing down. 

On Monday (December 9) Snoop and Dre shared a high-octane trailer teasing their upcoming Missionary short film. 

The minute-long clip features Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre performing a series of jaw-dropping maneuvers in sports cars, including tire-shredding donuts. They also uncover bodies in a freezer and get caught up in an explosion.  

Directed by Dave Meyers, the movie also features Missionary album collaborator Jhené Aiko.  

Missionary is expected on December 13. The project features a star-studded lineup, including Eminem, 50 Cent, Sting, Method Man, Jelly Roll, Tom Petty, BJ the Chicago Kid and many others. 

Meanwhile, Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre have dropped three singles from the album, including the recently released “Another Part of Me.” The track features Sting and samples a classic song by The Police, the 1979 hit single “Message In A Bottle.” 

The song follows “Gorgeous,” featuring Jhené Aiko, and the second release “Outta Da Blue” featuring singer Alus alongside an all-star production team, including Dre, Dem Jointz, BoogzDaBeast, and FNZ. 

Additionally, Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre enjoyed drinks with Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis Jr. in a new AI-assisted commercial for their Still G.I.N. brand. Check it out below.  

JAY-Z Accused Of Assaulting Male & Female Minors In Another Bombshell Filing

JAY-Z has been accused of raping a boy by the same lawyer representing a woman who filed a lawsuit alleging Hov and Sean “Diddy” Combs sexually assaulted her in 2000 when she was just 13 years old. 

In a new filing, the Roc Nation mogul’s Alex Spiro admitted JAY-Z was the anonymous celebrity accusing attorney Tony Buzbee of extortion and asked for an emergency hearing of the case.  

Spiro attached a copy of Hov’s 236-page extortion lawsuit against Buzbee, which refers to JAY-Z and “John Doe.” The filing reveals the attorney accused him of “multiple” assaults on both male and female children. 

Spiro argues JAY-Z “is the victim of a scheme” by Buzbee, who he accuses of “shamelessly attempting to extort exorbitant sums from him or else publicly file wildly false horrific allegations against him.” 

The document continues, arguing Buzbee and his firm “threatened to unleash entirely fabricated and malicious allegations of sexual assault—including multiple instances of rape of a minor, both male and female—against Plaintiff if he refuses to comply with their demands.”   

Spiro dismissed the “baseless accusations,” as “nothing more than a weapon in a calculated plot to destroy Plaintiff’s high-profile reputation for profit, despite the complete absence of any factual basis for such claims.” 

JAY-Z swiftly denied the allegations in a strongly worded social media statement. He claimed the lawsuit was a “heinous” attempt at blackmail orchestrated by Tony Buzbee and vowed to fight the suit. 

Mustard Accuses Drake Producer Boi-1da Of Celebrating “Not Like Us” Amid L.A. Music Critique

Mustard has fired off shots at Drake’s longtime producer Boi-1da on social media and accused the OVO-affiliate of aligning with Kendrick Lamar at the height of feuding rapper’s beef earlier this year.

In a series of Instagram Story posts the Hitmaker shared on Monday (December 9), he accused his multi-platinum producer counterpart of essentially casting a rock whilst hiding his hand.

The totality of Mustard’s posts appear to accuse Boi-1da of making disparaging remarks about L.A. music despite having previously congratulated the “Not Like Us” producer on the success of the Drake diss track he handcrafted. In his initial posts, Mustard called Boi-1da out over his apparent hot-take that no one listens to L.A. music outside of the city’s own resident’s.

“I thought you was a real one,” Mustard wrote in a caption on a screenshot of Boi-1da’s alleged remarks. “I didn’t know you felt this way.”

Mustard continued to air out Boi-1da over his alleged slights, seemingly expressing his disbelief and sarcastically trolling his friend-turned-foe in the process.

”Tell me this ain’t real crodie,” wrote on another screenshot of a disparaging remark.

In another post featuring a screenshot of a direct message exchange between the pair, Mustard added, “You said you liked no like us.”

Boi-1da has been vocal throughout the rap beef between Drizzy and Lamar and tweeted several remarks and memes including one about engagement farming by way of 6 God slander prior to Mustard calling him out for allegedly supporting “Not Like Us.”

He also addressed the bot allegations from Drake’s legal complaint and even responded to comments in a post about Toronto radio broadcasters refusing to giveaway tickets to Kendrick’s upcoming Grand National Tour with SZA. More specifically, he clapped back at a user who attempted to turn the tables on the broadcasters over their loyalty to Drake, alleging that Lamar not only dissed the city of Toronto, but the Country of Canada as a whole.

Check out the post above for all of the receipts Mustard shared and then switch over to the post below laying out the cycle of the saga from Boi-1da’s point of view thus far.

Soulja Boy Shares Theory That Celebrities Are “Targeted” Amid JAY-Z Allegations

Soulja Boy is making waves once again, this time with a passionate live stream where he addressed the growing pressures faced by celebrities in the entertainment industry.

His comments come in the wake of a recently refiled lawsuit targeting Hip-Hop icon JAY-Z and incarcerated music mogul Diddy.

According to the filing, a Jane Doe victim is claiming HOV and Diddy sexually assaulted her when she was 13-years-old in 2000 following an MTV Video Music Awards after-party. The alleged victim is being represented by Houston-based lawyer Tony Buzbee, who’s also representing 120 other Diddy accusers with civil and criminal claims against the Bad Boy executive.

During the recent stream, Soulja Boy wasted no time weighing in, using his platform to highlight what he sees as a pattern of targeted attacks on high-profile figures.

A post shared by AllHipHop (@allhiphopcom)

“When you in this industry, bro, you got to stand on business,” Soulja Boy said in part. “They’re going to lie on your name.”

He transitioned to speak directly about the struggles of fame, seemingly suggesting his belief that there is an agenda to take out successful Black entrepreneurs.

“They gonna try to take you there,” he said. “They don’t want to see us winning. They don’t want to see us having this money.”

Soulja Boy appeared resolute, asserting that such challenges were inevitable for those in the spotlight as he began reflecting on his own journey.

“Me becoming famous, I already knew,” he continued. “I was sacrificing the regular life. I already knew what time it was.”

Soulja Boy is no stranger to lawsuits, specifically those alleging sexual assault, considering he’s starred down the barrel of multiple in the past. In fact, earlier this month, as of December 5, a judge ruled the “Crank That” rapper’s former personal assistant’s lawsuit against him can move forward. In a previous report published by AllHipHop, it had been revealed that Santa Monica Superior Court Judge Mark H. Epstein denied a motion by Soulja Boy’s attorneys to dismiss multiple causes of action in the lawsuit brought by the plaintiff, including gender violence, hostile work environment and negligence. The woman, who is also only referred to as “Jane Doe,” originally filed her lawsuit in 2021. The assistant alleged that she endured severe sexual, physical, and emotional abuse while working for Soulja Boy from late 2018 to mid-2020. The claims include sexual battery, physical assault, false imprisonment and withholding wages.

Watch the clip above to hear Soulja Boy’s full address on the matter.

Attorney Laughs Off JAY-Z’s “Bogus” Blackmail Claims: “We Will Not Be Bullied” 

JAY-Z swiftly denied the recent lawsuit allegations that he and Sean “Diddy” Combs assaulted a minor, accusing the alleged victim’s attorney of attempted blackmail. He also requested an emergency court hearing to reveal the accuser’s identity; however, her lawyer, Tony Buzbee, believes these actions could ultimately backfire on him. 

The Houston attorney denied the extortion and blackmail allegations in a lengthy social media post Monday night (December 9).  

“No one has made any threats, ” Buzbee began. “Jay Z’s assertions are bogus and laughable. Instead, our firm sent a standard demand letter seeking a mediation on behalf of a woman who alleges Jay-Z sexually assaulted her as a minor.” 

He continued, accusing JAY-Z and his team of breaking the law and harassing his family. Buzbee described Hov’s response to the suit as “a coordinated and desperate effort to focus the public’s attention on me personally,” and away from the allegations.  

“This effort has included harassing my family and colleagues and even offering former clients money to sue me,” he added. “Which is illegal.” 

X/Tony Buzbee

A woman identified as “Jane Doe” filed an amended lawsuit accusing JAY-Z and Diddy of sexually assaulting her following an MTV Video Music Awards after-party in 2000 when she was just 13 years old.  She filed the initial complaint in October and implicated Hov in an amendment on Sunday (December 8). 

JAY-Z Blasts Tony Buzbee: File A Criminal Complaint

JAY-Z firmly denied the allegations, calling the lawsuit a “heinous” attempt at blackmail orchestrated by Tony Buzbee. 

Buzbee suggested that JAY-Z’s decisive actions following the suit hint at his underlying guilt. Highlighting his point, the attorney quoted a line from William Shakespeare‘s Hamlet. “The lady doth protest too much, methinks,” he wrote.  

“We intend to address all of these issues with the court in due course,” Buzbee concluded. “Let me be clear: We will not be bullied or intimidated by these shenanigans. And our clients won’t be silenced.” 

On Monday (December 9), JAY-Z called for an expedited federal court hearing to address the claims. He is also vigorously fighting for his Jane Doe accuser’s anonymity to be broken. 

Jamie Foxx Addresses Rumors Diddy “Tried To Kil Me” In New Netflix Special 

Jamie Foxx is opening up about rumors that Sean “Diddy” Combs was behind the actor’s mysterious hospitalization last year. 

The speculation began after Foxx taped his Netflix stand-up special What Had Happened Was… back in October. The comic was said to have claimed ” Diddy did something to me,” and so he reported him to the FBI. 

At the same time, another rumor was floating around that Diddy poisoned Jamie Foxx, and that was the reason for the FBI report. 

However, the Netflix special debuted on Monday night (December 9), with no such allegations. Nonetheless, Foxx did poke fun at Diddy and the rumors about an attempt on his life.  

“The internet was trying to kill me,” he said, referencing online gossip. “The internet was saying that Puffy was trying to kill me. I know what you’re thinking… Did-he?!”  

He continued, adding, “Hell no,” before mocking Diddy’s “freak off” events. 

“I left them parties early,” he quipped. “I was out by nine, n####, something don’t look right, n####. It’s slippery in here!” 

Jamie Foxx also poked fun at Diddy later in the Netflix special while discussing the mystery illness that left him temporarily unable to walk. 

“I saw the tunnel. I didn’t see the light, “ he said, recalling a near-death experience. “It was hot in that tunnel. I thought, s### have I gone to the wrong place? I looked at the end of the tunnel and I thought I saw the devil saying come on… or was that Puffy?  

“I’m f###### around,” he added. “But if that was Puffy, he had a flaming bottle of Johnson and… no I’m just kidding. ‘Come on in here, n####!’ No, I’m just kidding.”

50 Cent Clarifies Feud With Diddy & JAY-Z Following Assault Allegations 

50 Cent is setting the record straight on his long standing feud with Diddy and revealing where he stands with JAY-Z

The G-Unit Honcho has a longstanding rivalry with the incarcerated Bad Boy Entertainment boss. He upped the ante after Cassie Ventura’s lawsuit and the many others that followed and remained a thorn in Diddy’s side ever since.  

50 Cent has also been quick to taunt JAY-Z over allegations he sexually assaulted a 13-year-old girl with Diddy at a party in 2000. 

The topic of the recent lawsuit arose during an appearance on Big Boy TV on Monday evening. 50 Cent clarified his true thoughts about Jay-Z and Diddy despite all the trolling. 

“I haven’t had issues with Puff where I don’t like him,” he explained. “I don’t like things that he would do that make me uncomfortable.” 

He continued, stating “it’s definitely not that,” with JAY-Z insisting they have no real tension. “It’s just being competitive,” he added. 

50 Cent also referenced the 55-year-old rapper’s statement following the lawsuit. 

“I just hope things are all right for him internally,” he said. “I mean at the crib. Because in the statement they mentioned his daughter being old enough to … ‘cuz she about 13. So it’s the same age as these kids they saying he did something to do.” 

JAY-Z referenced his children, specifically mentioning his eldest daughter in a statement declaring his innocence.  

“My wife and I will have to sit our children down,” he wrote. “One of whom is at the age where her friends will surely see the press and ask questions about the nature of these claims.”

50 Cent Says Diddy “Washed Up'” In Court Of Public Opinion

Addressing the veracity of the allegations against Diddy and JAY-Z, 50 Cent said, “the damage is already done by the allegation itself.” 

He continued, stating that while he is unsure if Diddy’s “cooked” he’s certainly “washed up” in the court of public opinion.  

When asked about his post trolling JAY-Z over the Super Bowl, 50 Cent joked he was asking on behalf of Halftime Show headliner, Kendrick Lamar.  

“I’m just trying to figure out if we’re still doing everything,” 50 said. “Because they will fall back. The NFL, they won’t necessarily be associated to that.” 

Check out the interview below. 50 Cent begins his discussion about Diddy and JAY-Z around the 17:50 minute mark.

50 Cent Mercilessly Trolls JAY-Z For Attending Premiere Amid Assault Allegations 

50 Cent is keeping his foot on JAY-Z’s neck following a recent lawsuit accusing the Roc Nation founder and Sean “Diddy” Combs of raping a 13-year-old girl at a 2000 MTV VMAs after-party. 

On Monday evening (December 9), the G-Unit founder went after Hov for attending a movie premiere. The Roc Nation boss supported wife Beyoncé and daughter Blue Ivy at a screening of Mufasa: The Lion King, which features the mother and daughter duo. 

50 Cent jumped on the opportunity to troll JAY-Z over the allegations, sharing a photo from the premiere featuring the Carter family.  

“Jay said they said I rapped [sic] a kid, everybody get dressed we going to see Mufasa LOL,” he captioned the since-deleted post. 

In an amended complaint filed Sunday (December 8), a woman accused JAY-Z and Diddy of sexually assaulting her in 2000 when she was 13 years old. The Jane Doe accuser initially filed the lawsuit back in October. Without hours, JAY-Z issued a statement staunchly denying the allegations.  

Nonetheless, 50 Cent taunted JAY-Z over the lawsuit in an Instagram post Sunday, referencing Hov’s Super Bowl partnership with the NFL.   

“Ok I don’t know what’s going on, but are we gonna still have the Super Bowl,” he asked. “I’m just asking for a friend !”

50 Cent Trolls Tina Knowles Over JAY-Z Post

50 Cent also shared a post apparently exposing JAY-Z’s mother-in-law “liking” a post about the lawsuit. 

“Damn it man, mom like the Rape accusations,” 50 Cent wrote in the caption of another since-deleted post. He then followed up in the comment section, adding, “Maybe she hit the button by accident, I did that before.” 

Meanwhile, Tina Knowles denied liking the post, insisting she was hacked.

“As you all know I do not play about my family,” she wrote on Instagram. “So if you see something uncharacteristic of me. Just know that is not me!” 

Knowles added, “Please stop playing with me !!!! No weapon formed against my family shall prosper.’”

JAY-Z Supports Beyoncé & Blue Ivy At “Mufasa” Premiere Amid Explosive Lawsuit 

JAY-Z stepped out with his wife Beyoncé, and their daughter Blue Ivy Carter at the premiere of Mufasa: The Lion King on Monday evening (December 9), a day after the Roc Nation boss was accused of rape in an amended lawsuit.  

The superstar songstress and 12-year-old Blue Ivy both star in the movie, the new prequel to 2019’s Lion King remake. Beyoncé reprises her role voicing Nala while Blue makes her movie debut as the voice of Kiara, Nala and Simba’s (voiced by Donald Glover) daughter. 

The mother-and-daughter duo donned shimmering gold dresses for the red carpet premiere. Bey’s mother Tina Knowles was also on hand to celebrate with the family.  

Beyoncé paid tribute to her daughter in an Instagram post following the premiere. Sharing a pair of solo shots of her eldest child she wrote, “My gorgeous baby girl. This is your night. You worked hard and you did such a beautiful job as the voice of Kiara. Your family could not be prouder. Keep shining.”

JAY-Z posed for pictures with his family but remained tight-lipped about the lawsuit. He immediately denied the allegations after news broke of the filing, accusing Texas-based lawyer Tony Buzbee of attempted blackmail.

A woman identified only as Jane Doe accused JAY-Z and Diddy of sexually assaulting her at a 2000 MTV after-party when she was just 13 years old. Doe initially filed her complaint in October with Diddy as the sole defendant. However, she filed an amendment to include JAY-Z on December 8. 

Meanwhile, JAY-Z is calling for an expedited federal court hearing with his attorney Alex Spiro accusing Buzbee of orchestrating a deliberate campaign to coerce a settlement and tarnish Hov’s reputation. Spiro branded the suit “a shakedown.” 

“Due to the highly sensitive nature of this matter and the intense media scrutiny it has generated, we respectfully request to be heard on an expedited basis,” Spiro wrote in a letter to the court. “For the avoidance of doubt, Mr. Carter is entirely innocent. This is a shakedown.” 

Furthermore, JAY-Z and his legal team are fighting to expose his accuser’s identity, labeling Jane Doe and Buzbee’s tactics “unfair.” They want a complete dismissal of the allegations or disclosure of her identity. 

Nikki Giovanni: Revered Poet, Activist & Educator Dies At 81

Nikki Giovanni, the iconic and award-winning poet, author, and activist whose groundbreaking career spanned nearly six decades, has passed away. She was 81.

WDBJ reported that Giovanni died of cancer, sharing the news Monday night.

At the time of her passing, Giovanni was serving as a professor of English at Virginia Tech University. Over her illustrious career, she published nearly two dozen poetry collections, including works for children, and was celebrated for her innovative approach to poetry. She is beloved for her thoughts in the context of Black liberation. Giovanni described herself as “a dreamer” who saw her career path as shaped by serendipity.

“My dream was not to publish or even to be a writer: my dream was to discover something no one else had thought of,” Giovanni wrote. “I guess that’s why I’m a poet. We put things together in ways no one else does.”

A recurring theme in Giovanni’s work was the Black family, often inspired by her own upbringing. In a 2013 NPR interview, she reflected on how much her mother would have appreciated her 2005 poetry collection “Acolytes.” It was released the same year her mother passed away.

Giovanni’s life intersected with tragedy during her tenure at Virginia Tech in 2007 when a former student carried out a devastating mass shooting on campus. At a memorial service following the attack, she delivered a poignant speech featuring a poem she wrote to honor the victims. Her works seamlessly blended art and activism, addressing issues of racial and gender equality with unwavering power.

Her debut poetry collection, Black Feeling, Black Talk, was published in 1968 and cemented her role as a vital voice in the Black Arts Movement, where art and activism converged. Today, the collection is part of the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History & Culture.

Among Giovanni’s most celebrated works is her 1968 poem “Nikki-Rosa,” a deeply personal reflection on her upbringing in suburban Cincinnati that continues to resonate as one of her defining contributions to literature.
