“There were things that Charlamagne was willing to do that I would’ve never done. Never,” Ebro began. “And, that’s how you get to those big bags. It’s the same with Stephen A. Smith. When Disney wants to give you money like that, you gotta do a dance I ain’t willing to do.”

From there, he and Peter Rosenberg joked about the idea of speaking with a series of conservative commentators, including Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson, and more.

What Happened To “Ebro In The Morning?”

The drama comes after Hot 97 canceled the long-running talk show, Ebro In The Morning, earlier this month. While no official reasoning was given, Ebro theorized that the owners at Hot 97 wanted to silence him in a video on social media after the announcement.

“Bro’s a casino owner. You know the three licenses they got in NY for the casino? The guy that owns the sh*t owns one of the casino licenses,” Darden said, as caught by Complex. “He gotta raise half a billion dollars. They need my sh*t talking, anti-Netanyahu, anti-government, progressive sh*t out of the way, bro. They need me out of the way.”

Drake used the opportunity to troll Ebro, dropping an axe emoji on Instagram. He further wrote to him in a direct message: “Die slower p*ssy. We got some sh*t for you.”

Rosenberg responded to that move by writing on X (formerly Twitter): “It’s behavior like this that has made it impossible for people to defend the wack sh*t that he does … But happy Hanukkah my one time pal .. I truly wish you well even if you’re celebrating what you believe is our demise.”

New England went on the road to Baltimore on Sunday night (Dec. 21), earning a hard-fought victory in the process. The Patriots were down 11 in the fourth quarter, 13-24. But with a MVP hopeful in Drake Maye on their roster, they were able to gut it out.

He led the way with 380 passing yards and two touchdown tosses. His leading receiver just so happened to Cardi B’s boo Stefon Diggs. He tallied 138 yards on nine out of ten receptions. Moreover, the Patriots defense forced a key fumble on Ravens receiver Zay Flowers to seal the deal.

As you can see in the clip from Dov Kleiman, the AFC East leaders were able to kneel the game out and improve to 12-3. Cardi B was absolutely ecstatic while Kraft was hilariously stoic but most likely happy deep down.

This victory also secured the rising Patriots a playoff spot, their first since 2021. Heading into the second to last week of the regular season, they own sole possession of the two seed.

Cardi B & Stefon Diggs Wellness Day

However, they are in lock step for the one seed with the Denver Broncos, who are also 12-3 after a crucial loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Their next matchup is with the lowly 3-12 New York Jets, which is also on the road. In Week 18 they face the Miami Dolphins at home.

Overall, while this did cap off an exciting weekend for the Patriots organization, it was a good one for Diggs and Cardi as well.

Heading into this game, the wide receiver put together a spa-like retreat day for moms at Gillette Stadium. It was partially a way to celebrate Cardi B as well, who is the mother of his newest of three children.

The day of relaxation included facials, massages, yoga, and more. Diggs spoke about why he wanted to organize what he called the “Winter Wonderland Wellness Event.” “It’s the end of the year, I feel like everybody had a hard year, especially for moms… My mom is actually here today — special guest. So, I just wanted to host a wellness day, an appreciation day. Everybody works extremely hard, and I’m extremely blessed. Paying it forward is always going to be something big for me.”

In fact, the entirety of the car accident was captured on video and eventually uploaded to the internet. As you can see below, Zampella was speeding through a tunnel on the Angeles Crest Highway when his car lost control and his a barrier.

The vehicle eventually spun around into the middle of the road and erupted into flames. As TMZ reports, the passenger of the vehicle was ejected. Meanwhile, Zampella was unfortunately stuck in the flames. Despite the bystanders’ best attempts to save the men, both ended up passing away. It is a horrible tragedy that has come as a huge shock to the entire video game world.

Vincent Zampella Crash

This stretch of highway is amidst the San Gabriel Mountains and is known for being incredibly dangerous. It is not uncommon to see drivers perform all sorts of stunts with their cars in the area. Unfortunately, for Zampella, it led to his passing. It is unclear how he lost control or why the barrier on the highway is so poorly protected from such crashes.

Whatever the case may be, this all serves as a crude reminder that sports cars can be unsafe, especially at high rates of speed. You cannot help but feel for the families of both Zampella and his passenger.

You also cannot help but commend those who are capturing the incident on video. They immediately sprang into action and tried to save the two men. They could have easily run away or simply watched the chaos unfold. Instead, they put their lives at risk by rushing towards a car covered in fire, which could have exploded further.

RIP Vincent Zampella.

“You remember when the Saweetie Bentley was going viral?” Drake asked. “There was an ice blue Bentley. It was Saweetie’s car. Quavo had gotten it for her. I saw it for sale somewhere, and this is when we were first on Stake, and paper was just running… I was like, ‘Imma buy that back for my dog. I kind of tried to do the same thing where I invited him over like, ‘Yo, come over. There’s a party.’ I parked the whip right in the front. I bought it for him. He thought she was there.”

When BenDaDonnn pressed Drake to find out how Quavo reacted, he laughed and remarked, “It’s not about what he said, but he really didn’t understand the joke.”

Drake “Iceman” Update

Elsewhere in the livestream, BenDaDonnn attempted to get a release date for Drake’s next studio album, Iceman. “’When the f*ck is you dropping the album, ugly ass n***a?’ Chat, y’all gotta chill,” Ben joked at one point. Drake responded: “Nobody said that… See, he’s clip farming. He’s a clip farmer. Nobody even said that, bro. Nobody said that.”

Despite shutting BenDaDonnn down, Drake promised that he’s still working on the project. “I know what you’re waiting on, so trust me. We’re cheffing,” he said. He previously hinted at dropping Iceman before the end of 2025, but it doesn’t appear that will be the case. Speaking with Complex, last month, he promised to host at least one more Iceman livestream episode. “The finale will be our best work,” he told the outlet. So far, he’s released three singles, including “What Did I Miss?”, “Which One” featuring Central Cee, and “Dog House” featuring Yeat and Julia Wolf.

He was officially handcuffed on Friday, December 19, after Palm Beach County Sheriff’s deputies executed a search warrant at his West Palm Beach home. That has allowed us to learn what exactly was taken by Rodriguez and his two accomplices.

The list of luxury valuables includes Van Cleef earrings, a diamond necklace, a Balenciaga and Chanel purse, on top of $400 in cash. All in all, this totals to at least $30,000, according to the police. They were able to gather the worth of all of the items thanks to 6ix9ine’s girlfriend. Her ID was allegedly stolen during the burglary, as well as her driver’s license and three credit cards.

The purses, which equaled to $4,000 in value, were inside Pedro Rodriguez’s place.

How was Pedro found and arrested? A security officer in the neighborhood acquired an image of Pedro and the other suspects that was captured on another homeowner’s security camera. 

Moreover, the police’s evidence wound up revealing that Pedro’s phone was in the area at the time of the crime.

When Does 6ix9ine Start His Sentence?

The hunt is still on for remaining suspects. They along Pedro, who were armed, confronted 6ix9ine’s 60-year-old mother during their raid. They forced her to wait outside of the residence while they grabbed what they wanted.

You can see some of the footage above acquired by TMZ. Police say the criminals were looking for cash and car keys in particular.

6ix9ine called out the robbers on social media after hearing the news. “Yesterday, they allowed me to leave [house arrest] for work. People saw that I was on livestream with Jack Doherty. They took that opportunity to f*cking do some p**sy sh*t. It’s me, so I get it. The rules are different for me. If it was your favorite artist, your favorite actor and that was done, they don’t get no cool points for that. My mom is 60 years old. Y’all know I’m supposed to come home. Y’all know I’m home all the time. I’m on house arrest. So, y’all take the opportunity that I’m not home and y’all see me on livestream with Jack Doherty in Miami and y’all do that. That’s p**sy sh*t.”

6ix9ine unfortunately isn’t only dealing with this, though. He’s also getting ready to serve his three-month prison sentence next month after violating the terms of his probation twice.

In one email from 2020, an assistant U.S. attorney in the Southern District of New York who had just received flight logs remarked that the President traveled with Epstein “many more times than previously” believed, according to CBS News.

The email reads: “For your situational awareness, wanted to let you know that the flight records we received yesterday reflect that Donald Trump traveled on Epstein’s private jet many more times than previously has been reported (or that we were aware).”

It goes on to note that Trump was “listed as a passenger on at least eight flights between 1993 and 1996, including at least four flights on which Ghislaine Maxwell was also present.” 

Additionally, the email claims that Trump took at least one flight with Epstein and a 20-year-old. He also joined him on two flights with “women who would be possible witnesses in a Maxwell case.”

Epstein died by suicide in his jail cell. He had been arrested on federal charges for the sex trafficking of minors in Florida and New York.

Donald Trump & Jeffrey Epstein’s Relationship

Donald Trump most recently reacted to the DOJ’s release of files related to Jeffrey Epstein by addressing the inclusion of pictures of former President Bill Clinton. “I like Bill Clinton,” Trump told reporters at Mar-a-Lago, as caught by The Guardian. “I’ve always gotten along with Bill Clinton; I’ve been nice to him, he’s been nice to me … I hate to see photos come out of him but this is what the Democrats – mostly Democrats and a couple of bad Republicans – are asking for, so they’re giving their photos of me too.”

“Everybody was friendly with this guy,” Trump continued. He added that “a lot of people are very angry that pictures are being released of other people that really had nothing to do with Epstein. But they’re in a picture with him because he was at a party and you ruin a reputation of somebody.”

Two featured “Mr. Mayers” artwork, with one of the two being signed. The remaining pair sported Tim Burton’s “GR1M” and “Dummy” designs. Both of those were also signed by Rocky. All retailed for $50 USD.

However, while we assume a lot of die-hard fans were able to scoop copies, a fair number of scalpers also got their hands on a few. Per Kurrco, they are reselling on eBay for double the price. But that’s the low-end. Some people are marking them up to where they’re five times as expensive or at the most, 17 times higher.

It’s unfortunate to see folks who only care about making a money off of eager buyers. But at the end of the day, that is the reality of the collectors world.

That aside, it’s exciting to see A$AP going all out with exclusives and physical copies.

When Is A$AP Rocky Dropping Don’t Be Dumb?

All of the preorders are shipping in January, but it doesn’t say exactly when. Our guess is when Don’t Be Dumb is releasing, which is the 16th. Rocky confirmed this detail last Friday, December 19, on his Instagram.

“JANUARY 16 2026 , DON’T BE DUMB VINYLS , CDs , CASSETTES , AND DIGITAL DSPs AVAILABLE , THANKS TO EVERY CREATIVE AND MUSICIAN WHO HELPED ME WITH THIS MASTERPIECE [fire emoji].”

We practically have all of the details outside of the confirmed features. Of course, there’s a chance that previous collab singles he’s released in the last year could make the 17-song tracklist. “HIGHJACK” with Jessica Pratt,” “Ruby Rosary” with J. Cole, or “pray4dagang” featuring KayCyy are all options.

But there’s also a chance those could be leftovers from recording sessions during the DBD era. However, we may have at least one sure-fire inclusion in Playboi Carti. After a Reddit user asked him to include a song with the Opium CEO supposedly titled “Helicopter.” Rocky replied with “BET” so we will see if he follows through there.

Additionally, they cite numerous other issues with Megan’s medical records. These include allegedly forged signatures, inconsistent document formatting, date and time contradictions, and more.

Lanez and his team also reference a report claiming there was a hospital security guard named Derek Cervantes who said he transferred “foreign bodies” to the hospital. At trial, detectives testified that no bullet fragments were recovered from the hospital.

Tory Lanez Prison Interview

The latest appeal filing comes after Lanez discussed his case with NBC News, last week. It marked his newest interview from behind bars, where he’s served three years of his 10-year sentence. He was found guilty of first-degree assault with a firearm, discharge of a firearm with gross negligence, and having a concealed firearm in a vehicle.

Lanez began his interview by reiterating that he believes himself to be innocent. “I’ve never been violent towards a woman; I would never hit a woman, let alone shoot a woman,” he said.

He also clarified that he harbours no hatred towards Megan Thee Stallion. “When I talk about my case, I don’t want it to be taken as me coming at her. Because it’s not that,” Lanez said. “I’m just asking for somebody in the system to look at my case and look at the evidence and ask if this was fair.”

Lanez has a tough road ahead of him with the appeal. His team will have to successfully argue that the new evidence is strong enough that it would have completely changed the jury’s decision had it been part of the original trial.

For instance, a couple of nights ago, he called Spotify “Botify.” He also played some unreleased music from ICEMAN, which has fans eagerly anticipating the project’s release. Last night, Drake and Ben were back at it, although this time around, the artist was seen showing off some impressive cars.

One of those cars was a special 1-of-1 Rolls-Royce Spectre Mansory with a NASCAR spec. Interestingly enough, he would go on to gift BenDaDonnn a blacked-out Rolls-Royce in the same model. It was a cool moment, and one that shows how Drake is in the gift-giving spirit.

Later on in the stream, Trainwrecks, one of the co-founders of Kick, called into the show and started making some NSFW jokes at Drake’s expense. One of them was about Drake’s infamous nude leak, and as you can imagine, the artist was a bit uncomfortable.

Drake & BenDaDonnn Stream

Despite the uncomfortable feeling, it’s clear that Drake found it all to be pretty amusing as he let out a smile. BenDaDonnn also found it to be pretty hilarious, and eventually, Trainwrecks moved on.

Whether or not Drake streams again tonight remains to be seen. However, if one thing is for certain, it is that streams have proven to be a massive success for Kick. The streaming platform is trying to compete with Twitch, and when the biggest artist in the world is on your side, that certainly helps with marketing.

As for BenDaDonnn, these streams have also proven to be huge for him. He has been looking to get into the streaming world as well, and having Drake as your partner is a pretty good gig. Only time will tell what Drake does with Kick going forward in 2026.
