Overall, Akademiks’ attendance at the party should not be a surprise. He and Drake have become friends over the years. It has even gotten to the point that Ak has his very own OVO chain.

That said, there were some people at the party who Ak has beefed with in the past. Some of these individuals have yet to actually patch things up with the commentator. One of them is former Joe Budden Podcast co-host, Mal.

While on stream last night, Akademiks explained why he didn’t confront Mal while out at Drake’s party. Ultimately, it all comes down to not wanting to ruin the evening for everyone.

DJ Akademiks Explains Himself

“I would never have any negative thing in real life at my man’s party,” Ak explained. Akademiks then went on to say that regardless of the circumstances, he probably wouldn’t have said anything anyway.

He also noted that he will likely be seeing more of Mal in the future as he plans to follow Drake on his upcoming tour. After going to 12 NBA YoungBoy shows, Ak hopes to double this amount for his guy.

Needless to say, if you were expecting a full-on argument between Mal and Akademiks, you simply aren’t going to get that anytime soon. Besides, it appears as though Rory is the more confrontational of the duo.

The rapper filed documents with the court alleging that Kemp has continued to take aim at his son, 14-year-old Sire, whom he shares with Daphne Joy. Fif specifically pointed to Kemp’s comments describing Sire as “slow” and being on the spectrum. He also mentioned a post where Kemp shared a photo of Sire next to a sexually charged photo of a woman that he alluded to being Joy.

Fif alleges that it’s caused immense humiliation to his son, embarrassing Sire and having an impact on his mental health. Ultimately, he wants the court to step in because he believes the harassment toward Sire will continue if they don’t. He’s demanding that a judge greenlights a temporary injunction to prevent Kemp from cyberstalking, stalking, and harassing Sire. However, he wants a final injunction after a proper hearing.

50 Cent Vs. Tia Kemp

This all stems from when Fif began poking at Rick Ross and Tia Kemp’s son, who was robbed at gunpoint in Florida. Fif then went on to offer to pay bond for the alleged perpetrator.

Still, Fif said that his lawyers previously sent a cease-and-desist order to Kemp to have her remove the offensive photos from the web, but she later fired back, “F u and ya lawyers.”

The petition was filed on Sire’s behalf in Miami-Dade County, Florida.

While Cam & Ma$e’s friendship is what drives the show, there is no doubt that Treasure Wilson, AKA Stat Baby, has become a core element of the program. Without her, the entire show falls off the rails. Her chemistry with Cam’ron & Ma$e is perfectly suited for the show, and they never feel shy about clowning on one another.

That was certainly the case over the weekend as Drake celebrated his 40th birthday in New York City. Wilson attended Drake’s party, and Ma$e wanted to know some of the finer details.

In the clip below, he asks Stat Baby about her weekend, knowing full well where she was. However, he was trying to see if she would admit to attending the party. Ma$e then asked if Kendrick Lamar gave her permission to do so. Cam’ron couldn’t stop giggling during the exchange.

Ma$e Asks Stat Baby About Drake’s Party

“What happened to ‘They Not Like Us’? Shoutout to Iceman, ‘They Not Like Us’… She ain’t gotta explain herself. Sometimes she ‘They Not Like Us,’ sometimes she Iceman,” Ma$e said.

Stat Baby had previously been seen dancing along to “Not Like Us,” which is why Ma$e had something to say. Wilson found the entire exchange to be humorous, and they eventually left it at that.

Regardless, Drake’s birthday bash was attended by many, and it remains clear that he is a popular guy, regardless of what has happened over the past couple of years.

Eventually, Nevaeh gave birth, and not long after, the couple broke up. Blueface kicked her out of the house, and then he had Chrisean Rock move in. This subsequently led to more antics, more viewers, and more money. He then got engaged to Chrisean, only for the two to break up all over again.

On Monday, Nevaeh came back to Blueface’s house, and they ended up going on a date with one another. In the clip below, you can see the two interacting in Blue’s streaming room, all while Nevaeh asks for an apology.

The Blueface Circus Continues

The content strategy here is pretty obvious. Blueface is just going to continue cycling the mothers of his children in and out of the house until the viewers get tired of it. He knows fans live for this kind of drama. It is as if he is running a reality TV show from his house, and Kick viewers cannot get enough of it.

Whether or not this is going to be sustainable for Blueface remains to be seen. While he is making six figures weekly, we do know that streamers come and go all the time. Fall-offs happen, and in order to keep the ball rolling, he will need to figure out how to keep the content fresh.

Only time will tell whether or not this Nevaeh reunion actually lasts.

Akademiks has picked fights with some prominent figures over the years. More recently, he has been diving into streamer beef. People like Tylil are perfect examples of this. However, this beef with Sneako has gotten ugly, especially after what occurred last night.

Adin Ross and his friend Cuffem hosted a call with Akademiks and Sneako. Instead of trying to hash out their issues, Sneako began crashing out on Ak. He told the hip-hop commentator that he made a living off “farming black death” and that he is a blight on society. He also alleged that Akademiks beats women and grooms 15-year-olds in Discord calls. +

This became an all-out screaming match, with Akademiks replaying clips of Sneako revealing he went to a s*x party with his ex-girlfriend and watched her hook up with another man.

Sneako Vs. DJ Akademiks

For those confused by Sneako’s allegations, these come from incidents that were well publicized. Firstly, Akademiks was accused of rape a couple of years ago and was even hit with a lawsuit. Meanwhile, there was a moment on stream where Akademiks was asking a 15-year-old some uncomfortable questions, which led to severe backlash.

During the call, Akademiks didn’t seem interested in responding to the allegations or explaining them. Instead, he tried to shout over Sneako and call him out for his own hypocrisy.

Kick is a platform where these kinds of fights frequently manifest. If this had occurred on Twitch, there would have been some swift bans handed out.

Now, Adin Ross is looking to get Akademiks and Sneako in the ring for a BrandRisk fight. If that were to happen, it would absolutely be must watch.

It was an anticlimactic announcement, especially given all the reporting from last week. Regardless, for those who love JAY-Z, it was fantastic news. As for his haters, well, they have already made their thoughts crystal clear.

To accompany this announcement, Hov put out a statement. It’s a statement simply stating how this opportunity is an exciting one.

JAY-Z Speaks

“From Reasonable Doubt to standing on the Super Bowl Halftime stage, this has been a journey,” Hov said. “Thirty years of music, work, and culture on the world’s biggest stage. This run continues to be a dream come true.”

Much of the controversy around the decision stems from the fact that JAY-Z is in charge of selecting the Halftime Show performances. He has overseen the epic West Coast rap show, the Rihanna halftime, the Usher set, and even The Weeknd’s surreal performance from five years ago. These were all inspired choices, although fans find this latest decision to be the complete opposite.

Next year, the Super Bowl will be in Nashville, which suggests Country Music is going to be on the menu. If that is the case, then perhaps JAY-Z felt as though now was as good a time as ever to make something happen.

He is in the midst of a huge year, celebrating some of his most classic albums. It was either now or never, whether the detractors like it or not.

Over the weekend, Drake got to celebrate his rejuvenated success. It was his 40th birthday, and he celebrated in style out in New York City. All of his best friends were there, and media personalities like DJ Akademiks were also in attendance.

As you can imagine, Akademiks actually got some inside scoops on Drake and what he has planned for next year. During his stream last night, Ak confirmed that new Drake music is, indeed, on the horizon.

Drake is “Sitting On Slaps”

“He’s been cooking up … he said, ‘I’m sitting on some slaps,'” Akademiks confirmed. If you are a Drake fan, this is exactly what you wanted to hear. Moreover, the fact that he said “slaps” seems to suggest that these are going to be rap songs, and not R&B-focused cuts.

ICEMAN was certainly the best of Drake’s three new albums, and the reason for that is simple. There was a good mix of hard-hitting bangers and straight-up bar fests. It’s the kind of energy that fans had been hoping for since the beef.

If you are a big fan of Drake, then this news is going to be exactly what you wanted to hear. If you’re sick of Drake, well, you might want to look away going into next year.

Well, this evening, the NFL made it official. JAY-Z is, in fact, going to be the Super Bowl Halftime Show performer in 2027. The teams are undetermined, but we do know that it will all go down at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, on February 14.

The NFL accompanied its announcement with a teaser trailer on social media. It is a short video that depicts the legendary rapper sitting in empty stands, watching an empty field.

JAY-Z Gets The Big Show

The timing makes sense. We are currently in the midst of a Monday Night Football game, which is when many fans are watching. Furthermore, Hov just had two successful shows at SoFi Stadium over the weekend. These were the kinds of performances that prove a rapper like JAY-Z can, in fact, headline a Super Bowl Halftime Show.

There are still plenty of unknowns going into this show. For instance, we have no idea who the guests are going to be. Furthermore, the setlist is a complete mystery, and it will be until it inevitably gets leaked during the rehearsals.

Whatever the case may be, this is a polarizing choice, and fans are going to be upset no matter what the outcome is. Only time will tell whether or not Jay-Z can win them all over.

That said, there are many within the Trump administration who seem to believe that Nicki deserves some sort of role. After the dismissal of Katie Zacharia, there have even been suggestions that she could be the White House Press Secretary.

White House Communications Director Steve Cheung even floated the idea on X.

“Ladies and gentlemen, I think we may have found the new White House Press Secretary!” Cheung wrote.

Nicki Minaj Is Looking For A New Gig

Subsequently, Trump advisor Alex Bruesewitz asked Nicki’s fans if they are on board with the notion. “Hey Barbz, what do we think about this idea??” Bruesewitz remarked.

Stranger things have happened, and the way things are going, we would not be surprised if Nicki Minaj took this kind of role. Although it would mean that her rap career would be on pause for the time being, which is not something folks would have expected.

Over the coming weeks, it is going to be fascinating to see if this relationship stays afloat. Moreover, with the Republicans facing unfavorable polls going into the midterms, there is no doubt that Nicki is being used by the administration to get the vote out. It’s a cynical ploy, and one that Minaj is playing into.

That said, Nicki has always marched to the beat of her own drum, and we don’t see that stopping, anytime soon.
