Antonio Brown Defends Kanye West As NFL & NBA Stars Leave DONDA Sports 

By: London Jennn Updated Category: News

Antonio Brown has affirmed his commitment to Kanye West and his sports marketing agency DONDA Sports, as companies, brands, and individuals are severing ties with the rapper in their droves over his antisemitic comments.  

The former NFL star, who joined DONDA Sports as president in February, issued a statement shortly after Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown and Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald announced they terminated their association with the agency.  

On Tuesday evening (Oct. 25), Antonio Brown took to social media to voice his support for Kanye West. 

“Over the past few weeks the world’s reactionary and selective outrage at comments in the media made by my brother, Ye, have inflamed and sparked rampant conversation and reflection. I too have been able to reflect on statements that I and others in my circle have made that lack clarity in expressing my stance. The people and brands that have relentlessly profited from Black ideas and Black culture chose to distance themselves at a very specific time: a time that demonstrated their prioritization of certain groups over others,” Antonio Brown said. 

“None of us in this world are free of judgment, yet we live in a time where scrutiny and pessimism have driven our dialogues on cultural issues toward diatribes. Sensationalism and groupthink have forced people to not speak their minds and act out in fear rather than love. For these reasons, I stand by my dedication to freedom of speech, thought, and opinion. I actively seek to coexist in places where I may have a difference of opinion because it’s diversity in thought that pushes humanity forward.” 

He concluded, “I remain in support of the humanity that is Ye.”  

Adidas Severs Ties With Kanye West

Meanwhile, earlier on Monday, Adidas announced it severed all ties with Kanye West. The company cited Ye’s “unacceptable, hateful and dangerous” recent comments and actions. According to Forbes, Ye’s net worth dropped to $400 million as a result of Adidas’ decision.

Additionally, Gap is removing all Yeezy Gap products from their stores, although the partnership with Ye ended in September. “Antisemitism, racism and hate in any form are inexcusable and not tolerated in accordance with our values,” Gap said in a statement.

Knowing how to leverage your strengths in life is critical to success. Everyone is born with attributes and skills which can change the world. Sadly, millions of people die every day with unfulfilled potential. Lacking discipline and being overwhelmed by fear, the mass majority of people’s dreams never bloom into fruition.

Understanding the sacrifice of a vision is a cryptic language decoded by natural-born leaders. Once a person psychologically commits to the path of most resistance, they begin walking the path of destiny.
Most people are engulfed in their personal shortcomings or deficiencies in life. These life elements blind people from seeing their organic beauty and skillset. Weaknesses are beautiful when you accept them and seek the truth to evolve. Some of the world’s most influential leaders originated from struggle and despair.

Their ascension in life directly results from leveraging their strengths and weaknesses. Major Recording Artist/Serial Entrepreneur Big Head Bandz never allowed what he didn’t have in life prevent him from aiming for the moon and settling for less. Big Head Bandz defines the essence of being a legendary truth-teller in rap culture. Big Head Bandz represents a hybrid era of rap culture.

Big Head Bandz’s music meshes multiple complex and intricate components of rap into every musical composition. His ability to convert raw emotions of life into audio diamonds is unrivaled.
Listening to his body of work is a journey through Black history, the crack era, church, Corporate America, and Hip-Hop. His latest release ‘Hollywood’ epitomizes the art of hustling infused with the ‘48 Laws of Power’.

Big Head Bandz lyrics speak to a specific aspect of a person’s spirit. Sonically, Big Head Bandz is light years ahead of his contemporaries. “Hollywood’ is now being serviced with iHeartRadio radio programmers across North America. Big Head Bandz is CEO of Got Bandz Entertainment, LLC, and has multiple projects slated for release in 2023. He also is a Global Brand Advocate for RADIOPUSHERS. RADIOPUSHERS and Big Head Bandz inked a strategic digital branding partnership in 2022.

Why Dirty Bastard is the Hottest Independent Artist Right Now

Hip-hop music has evolved into one of the world’s prominent music genres and cultural influences, with many borrowing from the industry. But it’s impossible to talk about this growth without mentioning the legendary hip-hop group Wu-Tang Clan. Wu-Tang transformed the hip-hop space, fusing raw sounds, grimy beats, and martial art themes to create a new vibe. Young Dirty Bastard now continues this legacy.

Bar-Sun Unique Jones, popularly known by his stage name, Young Dirty Bastard, borrows from the Wu-Tang Clan. His unique music style has allowed him to break into the industry as an independent artist, with many praising his sound. Young Dirty Bastard’s release continues to trend as a masterpiece, as he combines the 90s with contemporary sounds. His music is a bit laid back and speaks to the young and older generation who loved Wu-Tang.

Young Dirty Bastard is the son of the legendary OI’ Dirty Bastard, the nephew of RZA and cousin to GZA. His background has helped him create timeless rap perfect for a sing-along, and on many fronts, he continues to inspire and encourage his audience.

Young Dirty Bastard developed a passion for music at a young age. He often accompanied his dad and RZA to the studio and practice sessions; this unknowingly contributed to inspiring him to start his journey in the industry. In his early years in the music scene, Young Dirty Bastard was under Wu Music Group by Wu-Tang Clan.

He began his music career by releasing mixtapes. The experience working under Wu Music helped Young Dirty Bastard learn more about rap and music in general as he watched his dad, uncle, and cousin.

Young Dirty Bastard has performed live with the Wu-Tang Clan and recorded songs under the guidance of RZA. He has also worked with Ghostface Killah. Occasionally, Ghostface has been featured on Young Dirty Bastard’s mixtape, A Dirty Tomorrow.

Young Dirty Bastard continues his father’s legacy, creating music that speaks to the heart and soul. On this note, Young Dirty Bastard has created several mixtapes which have attracted massive attention. In addition, Young Dirty Bastard has been featured on the Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon, Good Morning America, Jimmy Kimmel Live, NPR Tiny Desk, and Hot 97 Summer Jam. His mixtape, Block 1, is one of the top mixtapes. Block 1 comprises ten songs, including “Dirty City,” “Dirty Diana,” “Eastside,” and “Purple Snow.”

Young Dirty Bastard currently works on his album, Brooklyn’s My Blood Type; the album is slated to be released on 2/2/2023 and will comprise 14 songs. He already has some songs from the album released. He works tirelessly to put out about eight pieces before the official album launch date. The first single of Brooklyn’s My Blood Type is “Bar Sun,” which was released late last month. 

Young Dirty Bastard also has an upcoming NFT music marketplace, Dynasty. Additionally, young Dirty Bastard is building a ‘Musicverse,’ a decentralized record label for artists that allows artists and fans to transact directly. Finally, the young artist recently wrapped a 25-city tour titled “N.Y. State of Mind” with Nas, Wu Tang-Clan, and Busta Rhymes.” 

Kanye West’s Engineer Donates To ADL, NAACP & More After ‘Ye Controversy

Kanye West’s longtime engineer Andrew Dawson announced donations to multiple organizations in wake of the controversial rapper’s antisemitism and claims about George Floyd.

The engineer revealed he’s donating money from his royalties to the Anti-Defamation League, the NAACP and others in an Instagram post on Tuesday (October 25). Andrew Dawson didn’t mention Kanye West by name but referenced “recent events” as the reason for the donations.

“I have a resume I am proud of that represents decades of supporting the voices, visions and creativity of talented artists,” he wrote. “However, recent events compel me to be a supporter of more important voices at this time.”

He continued, “To support those voices, I will be making donations from my royalties to the ADL, NAACP, as well as Jewish and Civil Rights organizations. Two donations have already been made.”

Andrew Dawson began working with Kanye West on The College Dropout album, which dropped in 2004. The veteran engineer’s other collaborators include Tyler, The Creator and Childish Gambino.

Several businesses severed ties with Kanye West due to his rash of antisemitic remarks. George Floyd’s family also sued ‘Ye for spreading a conspiracy theory about the police brutality victim’s death in a Drink Champs interview.

Gap furthered distanced itself from Kanye West amid the backlash to his antisemitism.

The company announced it’s removing all of the Yeezy Gap products from stores as various brands cut ties with Kanye West. The retailer also shuttered its Yeezy Gap website.

“In September, Gap announced ending its Yeezy Gap partnership,” Gap said in a statement. “Our former partner’s recent remarks and behavior further underscore why. We are taking immediate steps to remove Yeezy Gap product from our stores and we have shut down YeezyGap.com.”

Gap added, “Antisemitism, racism and hate in any form are inexcusable and not tolerated in accordance with our values. On behalf of our customers, employees and shareholders, we are partnering with organizations that combat hate and discrimination.”

Kanye West and Gap’s partnership ended before ‘Ye garnered outrage for making antisemitic remarks on various platforms. The controversial rapper publicly feuded with Gap, which led to a split in September.

Since then, more companies stopped doing business with Kanye West. Adidas, Balenciaga, CAA and others dropped ‘Ye due to his antisemitism.

Kanye West lost his billionaire status after Adidas severed its relationship with him. According to Forbes, his net worth slipped to $400 million in wake of Adidas’ decision.

St. Louis rapper 30 Deep Grimeyy agreed to a plea deal, ending his trial for a gun charge on Tuesday (October 25).

According to multiple reports, the 25-year-old artist pleaded guilty to one count of felon in possession of a firearm. He was taken into custody after reaching an agreement on the second day of his trial.

30 Deep Grimeyy, whose real name is Arthur Pressley, was arrested for weapon possession in January 2021. St. Louis police found a Beretta 9mm pistol during a traffic stop.

Police pulled over a 2008 Pontiac G8 with four men inside it for a missing taillight and a license plate registered to a Jeep. Cops spotted a gun between 30 Deep Grimeyy and another passenger in the backseat.

The St. Louis rapper’s defense aimed to raise doubts about the ownership of the weapon when his trial began on Monday (October 24). But he admitted to possessing the gun the day after it was bought and the night of his arrest as part of his plea deal.

30 Deep Grimeyy, who has collaborated with notables such as Lil Baby and NLE Choppa, will be sentenced on February 1, 2023. He faces up to 10 years in prison.

Get To Know Whookilledkenny & His New ‘Strictly Business’ EP

By: Shirley Ju Updated Category: Breeding Ground
Preferred Source Publisher Button>

Whookilledkenny is here to remind you “it’s never personal, it’s Strictly Business.” Hailing from Austin, Texas but now based in Los Angeles, the rising star is best known for his unique blend of R&B and hip-hop, exploding onto the scene with his one-of-a-kind voice that demands attention. 

Growing up in the church, a young Whookilledkenny actually started as a Christian rapper, thanks to the nudge from his grandmother to rap about his faith. Soon, his talents made noise around town, as he received nothing but positive feedback from his Christian remix of Durrough’s “Ice Cream Paint Job.”

Soon, he would make the decision to make secular music, unveiling his debut project Pay The Fee back in 2019. Fast forward to 2022, he drops his highly-anticipated EP titled Strictly Business, spearheaded by lead single “Worth It.”

AllHipHop spoke with Whookilledkenny about his name, his background, the new release, and more!

AllHipHop: What inspired your name? 

Whookilledkenny: I originally used to go by Kenny Gee, but I had to change my name when I learned that I could face copyright issues due to the saxophone player Kenny G. I wanted something that would sound like a band or a group, not just one person. I thought it would look cool on festival flyers.

AllHipHop: How would you describe your sound?

Whookilledkenny: Player and luxurious or lavish. I talk about my lifestyle and real life events. If you live a similar lifestyle you can relate to it. Living in LA the past few years I’ve also added a different bounce to my music from working with producers from out here.

AllHipHop: Biggest influences?

Whookilledkenny: Wiz and Travis Scott. The influence that Wiz had when I was in high school is something I would love to have in the near future and being from Texas, Travis is one of my favorite artists of all time.

AllHipHop: At what point did you realize you could do music for a living?

Whookilledkenny: In elementary school, I knew I wanted to be the President or a rapper. Being President seemed like a long shot and at the same time I was performing raps at different churches across Dallas and I fell in love with performing and making music.

AllHipHop: New single and visual for “Worth It,” what inspired the record?

Whookilledkenny: I’m inspired by people in my life. I make music everyday so whatever is going on that day is reflected in the music

AllHipHop: Where was the video shot? Best memory?

Whookilledkenny: Pacific Palisades. Best memory is how player that area is… I would live there easily. We really just drove around the neighborhood and shot different scenes on whatever streets looked dope. We shot a scene in a front yard and the owner came out, told us he was a documentary film maker and that we could shoot outside his house for as long as we need to so shout to him

AllHipHop: What’s one thing you want fans to get from your Strictly Business EP?

Whookilledkenny: I make hits.

AllHipHop: What is it you want fans to get from your story?

Whookilledkenny: Keep pushing and don’t give up. If you know what your goals are, work everyday to get closer to them. I dropped a project in 2019 and ended up taking it down because it didn’t stream well. I used the entire year of 2020 to work on music and to understand the marketing and the business side of things. As soon as 2021 hit, we hit the ground running and haven’t looked back since. 

Before that when I was in high school in Austin, I was selling tickets to music festivals to all the kids in my school because if you solde enough tickets they would let you be the opener. No matter what, I’ve always figured out a way to keep going.

AllHipHop: How was it working with Buddah Bless and Hollywood Cole?

Whookilledkenny: I met them both during a trip I took to Atlanta. I got a lot of music with both of them.

AllHipHop: Explain your “pay the fee” mentality.

Whookilledkenny: It’s universal. Everybody paying the fee to somebody. And everybody collecting a fee from somebody. 

AllHipHop: 3 things you need in the studio?

Whookilledkenny: Weed, backwoods, and a lighter.

AllHipHop: Goals yourself as an artist at this point of your career?

Whookilledkenny: Touring is my main goal at the moment. I get dm’s from people in different cities telling me “come to New York” or “come to Chicago” so I’d really love to touch the road in 2023 and meet all my fans that have been supporting me.

Doja Cat Shows Off Her Perfect B###### On Twitter For Birthday

Over the weekend, singer and rapper, Doja Cat broke the Internet as she celebrated her birthday.

Last night, when I was in a sleepy haze, I saw a tweet that woke me up. That tweet was of Doja Cat’s naked breasts. And what a sight it was!

Now, I am not one of those guys that has never seen a pair of breasts before. However, if you are acting as if seeing those your cats, mammary glands is just like seeing someone else’s, then you are a natural born fool.

Doja Cat is one of the weirdest people in music today, but she is also one of the sexiest and most talented musicians to. There’s always something magical about seeing a superstar of that caliber naked.

Well, she promised to do it on her 27th birthday, and she delivered. What’s so funny is that she didn’t even have pictures herself and asked for people to send her direct messages of herself nude. She just wanted to repost and spread the love. By the way, it was a sex party a-la Eyes Wide Shut party, according to reports.

https://twitter.com/aiden_what/status/1584331208791842816

So, it seems to be my duty to help her amplify the message. The only thing is, this is a rated PG situation, and I cannot post the naked pictures in full. What I can do is give you some direction and also some idea of what happened.

https://twitter.com/Lexii82348863/status/1583925823890866177

Doja Cat has been a very polarizing figure, but I think I am about ready to forgive her. Check out the pictures and let me know what you think in the comment section.

By the way, others were there too like Dreezy, Ariana Grande and Normani.

Bieber was there too.

Norman showed off what she was working with.

Kanye West’s Jewish Divorce Lawyers Leave Him Too

Kanye West has lost an essential part of his team over his antisemitic, and horrible George Floyd comments: his divorce lawyers.

His remarks about Floyd being on drugs and not dying because of Derek Chauvin kneeling on him and his saying he was going to go “death con 3 on Jewish people,” have made a lot of people cut ties including Justin Bieber, Vogue, Balenciaga, Gap, Adidas and so many more.

For his consistent ranting about Jewish people, he was kicked off both Twitter and Instagram.

Now, the former billionaire’s JEWISH divorce attorneys Bernard Clair and Bob Cohen from the prestigious New York Cohen Clair Lans Griefer Thorpe & Rottenstreich LLP are parting ways.

Kanye hired the two lawyers to assist in the matters of his divorce from Kim Kardashian, the mother of his children, after four other legal firms left him in a year and a half.

The couple was declared legally single in March of 2022.

But the couple remains in dispute over the finances and custody of their four kids, North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm, which lawyers are needed for.

A source close to the company told Page Six on Monday, October 24th, said: “The firm is no longer representing Kanye West.”

Jaylen Brown Explains Why He Is Still Signed to Ye’s Donda Sports Agency

By: Kershaw St. Jawnson Updated Category: News

Sure, it seems like the world is turning its back on rapper-turned-designer Ye. But not everyone is.

Jaylen Brown from the Boston Celtics is standing by his guy and sticking beside Yeezy as a client signed to the rapper’s Donda Sports agency roster.

On Monday, October 24th, Brown said in an interview with the Boston Globe that he was sticking with the agency despite the current controversy.

“The reason why I signed with Donda Sports, it represented education, it represented activism, disruption,” the baller said. “It represented single-parent households, and a lot more people are involved in something like that.”

He added, “A lot of people that I work with, work with their families, build love and respect for, spending time in the summer. A lot of people involved. That’s what the organization from my vantage point from Donda Sports represented.”

The other person signed to Yeezy’s sports agency is Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald. He has yet to make a statement about his status with the agency.

As rostered clients, Donda represents the two and their marketing and business interests outside the sports they play. Donda will not be representing their sports contracts with their respective leagues.

Several brands have parted ways and ended friendships with Kanye, including Gap, Adidas, Balenciaga, and Vogue.

Kanye West Is No Longer A Billionaire After Losing Adidas Deal

By: Houston Williams Updated Category: Opinion
Preferred Source Publisher Button>

Forbes.

It looks like Kanye West just lost one. 1 billion!

After a slew of antisemitic comments, as well as anti-Black remarks, he has lost his deal with Adidas. And losing that deal with Adidas, he has also lost his billionaire status.

According to Forbes, the company that also anointed him a billionaire to begin with, said he is no longer a billionaire. Ye has been with Adidas since 2013, nearly 10 years. They have promoted his expensive Yeezy line of sneakers and made a ton of money to boot.

The company announced today that they will lose nearly $250 million in this quarter alone after dropping Kanye West and his Yeezy line. By the way, they owned the intellectual property that Kanye was working through. So it’s possible that they will continue with the Yeezy line even after their deal is done, I am being told. (FYI: I have also seen reports that say he could take Yeezy elsewhere or release it himself.) Kanye bragged, “The thing about it being Adidas I can say antisemitic things and Adidas can’t drop me … now what … now what.”

What? They dumped him and still own it. Crazy.

Anyway, Kanye West, challenged Adidas to drop him, almost like a dare. And they did.

Most people know by now that Adidas was founded by two brothers that were Nazis. The other brother went on to start Puma. So there was a tremendous amount of pressure for them to drop him, and their stock had already dropped considerably since his rant.

The Adidas deal was worth of reported $1.5 billion, calculated off years of earnings. Forbes, with their experts, looked at the royalties and earnings from this deal, similar to music or film residual income. They said that the Adidas money could be sold off, similar to a catalog of a recording artist.

Forbes maintains that without Adidas, Kanye is worth about $400 million. This estimate is based on real estate, liquid, cash, music catalog, on minority stake in Kim Kardashian‘s, Shapeware company, and other sources.

Kanye maintained that he was always worth well more than 1 billion, maintaining he was worth roughly $3,000,000,000. He disputed the Forbes account.

He also maintained that his Adidas partnership was worth $4.3 billion. Regardless, he is no longer worth $1 billion, whether he wants to believe that or not.

Now some people are going to maintain that this is more lies. But they believed it when he was proclaimed a billionaire by the very company that now says he is not. I’m not here to dispute or validate the Forbes list, but it does seem to be the gold standard.

By the way, Kanye has started to post on Parler, the Right Wing social media platform that was once owned by Candace Owens’ husband. Strange times we’re in, my friends.

“What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?,” he said quoting the Bible.

What’s the answer to the question.

Moscow Court Rejects Brittney Griner’s Drug Conviction Appeal; WNBA Star Finally Speaks

By: Kershaw St. Jawnson Updated Category: News

It seems that Brittney Griner will be serving her complete nine-year sentence in a Russian jail after the communist nation’s court rejected the appeal of her drug possession conviction on Tuesday, October 25th.

On the other hand, according to the Associated Press, it might just be a ploy to get the White House to engage in a “high-stakes prison swap” between countries.

As reported by AllHipHop.com, the U.S. basketball player, who is an eight-time all-star center with the WNBA’s Phoenix Mercury and two-time Olympic gold medalist, was convicted over the summer of drug charges after she tried to board a plane at Moscow’s Sheremetyevo Airport to exit the country with a couple of vape canisters with cannabis oil (which is illegal in the country).

She did not deny having the vapes but said she accidentally packed them in her bag, rushing to catch her flight. In addition, she said in America, she had been prescribed cannabis to treat her chronic pain. 

Her legal team presented written statements from her medical professionals— still it didn’t fly with the Big Reds.

“I’ve been here almost eight months, and people with more severe crimes have gotten less than what I was given. I want to also apologize for this mistake, and I said in my first part, that, yes I pleaded guilty. I did not intend to do this, but I understand the charges brought against me. And I just hope that that is also taken into account too as well, that I did guilty,” Brittney Griner said from her cell during the court hearing.

The 32-year-old baller did not appear live in the Moscow Regional Court but was zapped in via video from the penal colony where she is being held outside the capital. She spoke on her situation from behind bars.

Griner has been sentenced to close to the max of 10 years, basically ending her career as a player and compromising her financial stability.

Her lawyers reviewed the average sentence for such a crime, and it is nearly half the sentence, and almost 1/3 of those convicted for the crime have been granted parole. 

They claim her sentencing is excessive, and many in the public add she is being used in an international game of political chess.

Let’s hope this is not a stalemate.

Lil Baby Charts 25 Songs Simultaneously On The Hot 100

Not only does Lil Baby have the #1 album in the country, but the Atlanta-bred rhymer also controls ¼ of the current Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Lil Baby managed to land 25 songs on this week’s Hot 100. His “California Breeze” single opened at #4 on the rankings. Baby scored Top 10 entries for “Forever” featuring Fridayy (#8) and “Real Spill” (#10) as well.

Three tracks off Lil Baby’s It’s Only Me studio LP also presently occupy the Top 20. “Pop Out” with Nardo Wick started at #15. “In a Minute” rose 24 spots to #16. “Never Hating” with incarcerated rap star Young Thug debuted at #19.

Plus, Lil Baby controls an additional four positions in the Top 40 region. The 27-year-old southerner’s “Heyy” (#21), “Stand On It” (#22), “Not Finished” (#26), and “Perfect Timing” (#32) are all among the 40 most-popular songs in America.

Lil Baby Makes History

According to ChartData, Baby became the youngest music act in history to have at least 25 songs chart on the Hot 100 at the same time. The Quality Control rapper only joins Drake and Taylor Swift on the list of artists to achieve that feat.

The music history books added another new milestone, thanks to Lil Baby. The star born Dominique Armani Jones surpassed Nicki Minaj for seventh place on the all-time rankings of most entries on the Hot 100 with 132 songs. He has the most entries for 2022 (39) too.

Lil Baby also made some personal history this week with his latest full-length body of work. His It’s Only Me album racked up 216,000 first-week units. That sales total is the highest opening week of Baby’s career.

Baby Scored His Third No. 1 Album With It’s Only Me

In addition to Fridayy, Nardo Wick, and Young Thug, It’s Only Me also features Future, Rylo Rodriguez, Jeremih, EST Gee, and Pooh Shiesty. Baby’s third studio LP follows 2018’s Harder Than Ever and 2020’s chart-topping My Turn.

The Voice of the Heroes by Lil Baby and Lil Durk also hit #1 on the Billboard 200 in 2021. That collaborative project came after Baby teamed with fellow Atlanta native Gunna for the 2018 joint effort Drip Harder.

Lil Baby and Gunna earned an RIAA Diamond Award (10 million units) for the Drip Harder single “Drip Too Hard.” The RIAA also named My Turn the Top Album of 2020. My Turn crossed the 4x-Platinum mark in February 2022.

Aubrey Drake Graham celebrated his 36th birthday on October 24. The international superstar likely got an unexpected present from one of his followers known as Fake Drake.

A social media personality once known as IzzyDrake informed his Instagram followers of his name change. Apparently, the real Drake’s OVO company requested Fake Drake to drop the moniker and stop using the brand’s trademarked material.

“Happy birthday to the greatest artist in history and my biggest inspiration. I got this cease and desist letter from OVO [a] couple days ago and as a respectful b-day gift to @champagnepapi I changed my name from IzzyyDrake to Izzyyfamous🎈🎉,” wrote the aspiring musician on Instagram.

The supposed correspondence read, in part, “This letter serves as a notice of your unauthorized use of the trademark, ‘OVO’ to promote your brand and likeness, as well as your unauthorized fabrication of media which is Per Se damaging and defamatory to our brand. Your conducted actions are unwarranted, unwelcome, and inacceptable.”

It continued, “In addition, this shall serve as a pre-suit letter demanding that you provide us written assurance within 7 days that you will cease and desist from making any further factually untrue statements involving OVO Sound and/or Drake, and that you will no longer fabricate media that portrays the aforementioned Trademarks.”

Before dropping the Drake part of his name, IzzyDrake released a song titled “Letter To Drizzy” in September. This year also saw the release of Izzy Drake’s “Attack of the Clones” featuring Perkioo aka Fake Lil Durk.

Adidas Drops Kanye But Keep Yeezy Name, Designs And Colorways

Adidas bosses have terminated their partnership with Kanye West over his recent antisemitic remarks.

Over the course of this month, the “Stronger” rapper has made a string of divisive and offensive comments about Jewish people on social media and during interviews.

On Tuesday, a representative for the German sportswear giant issued a statement in which they confirmed they had cut ties with West as a result of his behavior.

“Adidas does not tolerate antisemitism and any other sort of hate speech. Ye’s recent comments and actions have been unacceptable, hateful and dangerous, and they violate the company’s values of diversity and inclusion, mutual respect and fairness,” they commented. “After a thorough review, the company has taken the decision to terminate the partnership with Ye immediately, end production of Yeezy branded products and stop all payments to Ye and his companies. Adidas will stop the Adidas Yeezy business with immediate effect.”

Established in 2015, the collaboration between the label and West was highly lucrative for both parties, with the Yeezy Boost sneaker ranges proving to be particularly popular.

As part of the statement, an Adidas spokesperson assured investors that the move will have a “short-term negative impact” on the company’s net income.

They also maintained that the brand is the “sole owner” of all design rights to existing products as well as previous and new colourways under the partnership.

Kanye West has not yet commented on the decision.

Adidas Severs All Ties With Kanye West

Retail sports company Adidas has ended its partnership with Kanye West, after a slew of antisemitic comments were made by the billionaire rap artist.

The German-based company said that it has severed all ties with Ye. Adidas said it estimates losing $246.5 million this year alone for discontinuing their business relationship with the artist.

“Ye’s recent comments and actions have been unacceptable, hateful and dangerous, and they violate the company’s values of diversity and inclusion, mutual respect and fairness,” the company said in a statement.

Adidas will end the partnership, all production of Yeezy branded products, and even stop payment to all of his companies immediately.

Adidas shares had slumped almost 5%, a low since 2016.

The partnership between the sports merchandise company and the artist was already strained, prior to the antisemitic comments. However, public scrutiny and criticism took its toll.

Lil Baby Addresses Alleged Photo Of Saweetie Sitting On His Lap

The rumored rivalry taking place in the Quality Control Music camp could be bubbling over to the public. Several pictures, songs, and interviews have entangled Lil Baby, Quavo, Offset, Saweetie, and Cardi B into a web of cheating speculation.

A photo posted last year by Saweetie had the internet questioning if the “My Type” performer left her relationship with Quavo to link up with his labelmate Lil Baby. Then Quavo hinted at the situation on the Only Built for Infinity Links album with Takeoff.

“I said, Caresha please, ’cause she too messy. B#### f##### my dawg behind my back, but I ain’t stressing. You wanted the gang, you shoulda just said it, we would have blessed it,” raps Quavo on the “Messy” track.

At first, there was speculation that Quavo’s bars were about his Migos groupmate and Cardi B’s husband Offset. Migos seemingly parted ways before Only Built for Infinity Links dropped which had a lot of people wondering what led to the split.

However, there was also evidence to suggest Quavo penned those “Messy” lines about Lil Baby, not Quavo. For example, Quavo used the phrase “my dawg” in the song. Previously, he appeared on the remix of “My Dawg” by Lil Baby.

In November 2021, Saweetie shared a photo of herself sitting on a man’s lap. Social media users began pointing out that the guy in the picture had on a very similar outfit to Lil Baby. Then Baby released his It’s Only Me album and the rumor mill lit up again.

It’s Only Me‘s “Stand On It” features Lil Baby rapping, “I don’t want your b####, we can’t swap out.” That message from Baby appeared to be a response to Quavo’s Instagram Story post in 2021. At the time, the Georgia native wrote, “Ain’t tripping. We can swap it out! #QCTheLabel.”

Someone has now directly questioned Lil Baby about the Saweetie situation. In a preview for an upcoming interview with the Big Facts podcast, Big Bank asked Baby if he was the man in that viral picture with Saweetie.

“Nah,” answered Lil Baby before laughing with the Big Facts hosts. Big Bank also suggested it must be hard living Lil Baby’s lifestyle because of rumors being connected to his name. The Grammy winner replied, “I do have to like, move a certain way because of that, and I be trying my best.”

Tamika Mallory Claims Kanye West Is Upset Because He Lost Kim Kardashian

Has Kanye “Ye” West’s recent scorched-earth media run been a reaction to losing his wife? Social justice advocate Tamika Mallory suggests the Donda album creator is acting out over Kim Kardashian.

Kanye West continues to lose business and personal relationships because of his extremely controversial comments. However, he has gained the support of white supremacists, white nationalists, and Neo-Nazis.

The 45-year-old billionaire falsely implied unarmed African-American George Floyd died from a fentanyl overdose and not from a police officer’s excessive force. Ye also threatened to go “death con 3” on the Jewish community.

Tamika Mallory made an appearance on Brutally Honest with Jasmine Brand. The Fox Soul show included Mallory sharing her thoughts on the controversy surrounding Kanye West at the moment.

“I think that Kanye is upset because he lost his woman. He’s trying to weaponize other communities to help him fight his personal battle,” Tamika Mallory told celebrity blogger Jasmine Brand.

Mallory continued, “In one of the clips from the recent interview he did on Drink Champs he said, ‘If y’all don’t want me to wear White Lives Matter t-shirt, then the culture should get behind me, when they take my child, the culture should get behind me.’”

The 2017 Women’s March co-chair added, “So now you’re saying that we should be involved in your custody issues, your family business. How many Black men has Kanye helped that can’t see their children? What is he involved in?” 

After getting married in 2014, Kanye West and reality television star Kim Kardashian publicly separated in 2021. Kardashian began dating comedian Pete Davidson in November 2021 before breaking up in August of this year.

West went on a months-long social media campaign against Pete Davison, who he disparagingly called Skete. According to Brilliant Idiots podcast host Charlamagne Tha God, the tension between Pete Davidson and Kante West also stemmed from Ye expressing his jealousy that Davidson has a “10-inch penis.”
