If you have been following along as of late, you would know that DJ Akademiks and Maino have been going back and forth. Akademiks has made some pointed comments on his streams. Meanwhile, Maino has been on his podcast, clapping back at anyone who has something to say.

Last night, DJ Akademiks was on his live stream, where he was catching up on the news. He also caught up on some of the feuds he is involved in. Of course, this led to his discovery that Maino had dissed him on a new track. At the time, “The Algorithm” was just a snippet, so Ak played it for his audience. In the end, he was left unimpressed.

DJ Akademiks Responds To Maino

While Ak acknowledges that Maino can talk a lot of smack, he also claims that the artist just needs to quit rapping altogether. It was a flippant comment, and one that is certainly going to come across as disrespectful to a lot of people. Of course, Maino will be the one taking the most offense to all of this.

Quite frankly, Maino’s diss track against 50 Cent from last week hasn’t packed all that much of a punch. It appears as though the fans just really don’t care all that much. Perhaps there is some fatigue, as it feels like 50 is beefing with everyone. Even Papoose’s 50 Cent diss track didn’t have the impact some assumed.

Whether or not Maino will continue to deliver diss tracks against Akademiks and others, is something will be answered in due time. However, given how these tracks have largely flopped, one could assume that it is time to just throw in the towel.

“Every time y’all get mad you bust the n***a out of hold something over his head. Y’all all do the same sh*t… Every time a b*tch gets mad, they literally are busting out everything,” she began. “I’m confused, that’s the same b*tch that’s been saying she was gonna bust out Lemmy for like three years now. That weak ass tea that she just put out, I’m just confused. You’ve been saying you’re gonna bust out Lemmy for three years. Now, b*tch, we’re waiting. You’ve been holding it over the man’s head to get a bigger check, we’re waiting. Girl, you are not no saint. Every time you get mad, you hold the sh*t over his head, so come out with it.”

Stunna Girl continued: “You and your n***a just jumped Lemmy, but I’m disrespectful? Lemmy, have I ever beat on you? Lemmy, have I ever jumped you with my n***a? Like, have I ever done any of these things to you except cuss you the f*ck out?”

When Live Bitez shared Stunna’s rant on Instagram, fans in the comments section labeled her hypocritical. “Mind you SHE DO THE SAAAME SH*T to EVERYBODY. Pls go to hell,” one user wrote. Another added: “Did Stunna get that memory erasure thing like Ariana Grande? She literally does the exact same thing and she doing it now by putting it out there.”

Ahna Mac & Stunna Girl’s Beef

Stunna Girl and Ahna Mac have been at odds for years now. Their feud stems from drama originating from their appearances on Zeus Network’s Baddies franchise. Last year, Ahna Mac alleged that Stunna Girl sent a group of men to rob her.

But that’s not the only thing that’s gone wrong over the last 72 hours or so. Prior to the album’s release, Harlow appeared on the New York Times‘ podcast, Popcast. During his sit-down with Jon Caramanica and Joe Coscarelli, he discussed how he didn’t fall into “that safer landing spot that a lot of my white contemporaries have found.”

While he didn’t mention anyone by name, it was implied that the comments were about artists like mgk and Post Malone. Both of them veered off into more “traditionally white” genres like punk rock and country.

As a result of not being another rapper of his skin color to do so, he feels he “got Blacker” instead. “I think I love Black music. I love the sound of Black music… Of course, it appealed to me to do something that I felt like, at a time when there’s plenty of people expecting me to take some of the routes that y’all are taking, to take the route that not only might not be expected but is also the one I genuinely want to take. So, all the stars aligned in that way for me, to be honest.”

Overall, the wording of his explanation is not landing, and it’s led to some ridicule but some jokes as well.

When Did Jack Harlow Drop Monica?

More specifically, users on X have been coming up with some wild nicknames for Harlow, per Bossip. As you can see above, they are pretty creative as they take popular Black artists and put a “whiter” spin on them. Charlie Kirk Franklin, is a twist on the iconic gospel singer. Brian McWhite is a play on 90s R&B crooner Brian McKnight. Then there’s others like Stevie Wonderbread, J’Nilla, Arnold Kelly, and Mos Definitely Not Yakub Kweli.

As of yet, Harlow hasn’t caught wind of this just yet, or at the very least said anything. But he’s a pretty chill and comedic guy himself so it’ll be interesting to see if just lets this roll off of his shoulders.

The 28-year-old hitmaker dropped off Monica last Friday, March 13, which just so happens to be his birthday. It’s nine tracks long and has zero features.

He is the latest in a new lineup of underground artists who prioritize shock value over the music itself. When you listen to a 2Slimey song, you are met with a barrage of sounds, and at a certain point, it all sounds a little bit ridiculous. While some young rap listeners love this new sound, others find it absolutely repulsive.

2 Slimey found that out the hard way over the weekend as he was a contestant on PlaqueBoyMax’s “Song Wars” series. 1300Saint, Slayr, and many others participated in this weekend’s edition of the contest. For those unaware, “Song Wars” features artists playing a new song for an ensemble of judges. Whoever has the best song wins the weekend.

Southside, DJ Akademiks, BruceDropEmOff, and ImDontai were just some of the judges this week, and it was here where they were introduced to 2Slimey’s sound. As you will see in the clip below, they were not feeling it at all.

2Slimey Is Not For Everyone

In fact, the vast majority of the judges gave the song a 0/10. Akademiks was the only person willing to show a little bit of grace here. He gave the artist a 5/10. It isn’t a passing grade, but it’s still significantly better than a zero.

Meanwhile, 2Slimey was so upset with the situation that he decided to completely abandon the call altogether. At one point, he gave up, and PlaqueBoyMax was taken aback by the fact that the artist had left the call.

When you make music like 2Slimey, you have to realize that at some point, not everyone is going to love you. Perhaps this will be a life lesson going forward.

“When n****s started trolling, I do sh*t that a n***a wish he could do. Walk through your neighborhood,” Buck responded in a video online. “Walk through your hood first. You wanna play all these gay ass jokes and sh*t. Walk through your neighborhood and let’s see how the folks treat you with no security… I ain’t got nothing to say to you. I’m getting money in my hood. You ain’t even funny no more. We all know you’re a joke.”

50 ended up sharing Buck’s video on his own Instagram page, writing: “Look at this punk ass we know you like them boys BUCK. Brorilla like the girls, that’s a better fit around here PUNK! You in your hood because, you broke boy.” Tony Yayo chimed in with a comment, adding: “We be in Southside all the time.”

Who Is 50 Cent Beefing With?

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by DJ Akademiks (@akademiks)

Young Buck is far from the only artist 50 Cent is feuding with on social media. He’s also been trading shots with Maino since he and the rest of the Let’s Rap About It podcast crew criticized his Netflix docuseries, Sean Combs: The Reckoning. After trading several shots online, Maino targeted 50 on his “Bleed Like Us” diss track, last week.

T.I. and his family have also been beefing with 50 Cent. That drama began when T.I. claimed that 50 was to blame for a potential Verzuz match between them falling through. He discussed the situation on an episode of Million Dollaz Worth of Game. 50 responded by calling him and his family out in numerous posts on social media.

Although Blueface was not knocked out, he did lose by decision, in what was a pretty obvious result. However, after the event, the rapper was quite salty about what went down. In fact, he accused Adin of rigging the fight so that he could make more money.

It was a hefty accusation that was made on the live broadcast. Adin was clearly upset with the allegation, as he immediately fled the interview with Blueface and spoke to Chibu instead. Ultimately, the integrity of Brand Risk Promotions has been put into question, and some are wondering if Blueface has a point.

DJ Akademiks, on the other hand, isn’t so easily convinced. During a stream this weekend, Ak spoke about the fight, and shot some bail Adin’s way.

Blueface Upset With Adin Ross

In the video clip above, Akademiks suggests that the reason why Blueface lost is actually very simple. He was out of shape and didn’t take the fight seriously. Chibu was all over social media training for the big fight. Meanwhile, Blue was taking it easy, and it showed once everyone got into the ring with one another.

At the end of the day, these fights are pure spectacle and are not made to truly showcase the best that boxing has to offer. The Adam22 fight from a few months ago is the perfect example of this phenomenon.

Whether or not Blueface gets back into the ring is something that still remains to be seen. However, there are certainly a few challengers out there who could be perfect for Blue. Whether or not he wants to work with Adin Ross again is something that still very much remains to be seen. At this point, it feels like the relationship is completely tainted.

In fact, the actress and Pamela Abdy, the co-CEO of Warner Bros, were being physically blocked off by this security guard. That would be annoying already. However, making matters worse was that this male guard reportedly put hands on Taylor in the process.

As you can hear in the video caught by Live Bitez, the 35-year-old was pretty angry. “You’re a man putting your hands on a female,” Taylor says. “You’re very rude…” She then turns her attention to another woman, who seemingly had an issue with the singer calling out the security employee.

“He put his hands on a female. What is we doing? He literally shoved me… What’s the problem?” Taylor adds, “Everyone’s trying to have a nice time… But when you get to shoving, that’s a different story. Do not touch me…”

Did Teyana Taylor Win An Oscar?

TMZ also reports that things remained tense as this man kept trying to deny access to the stage. Additionally, the guard even tried to get an apology out of Taylor, but we have to imagine she didn’t acquiesce.

At this time, no rep from the Oscars nor anyone in Taylor’s camp has responded for comment.

But while this confrontation was something she would have liked to avoid, the performer did have a fulfilling evening. While she didn’t take home the Best Supporting Actress award (winner was Amy Madigan), her film, One Battle After Another, took home quite a few trophies.

The final tally was six and included a Best Picture win. One Battle was nominated 13 times, second most behind Sinners which had 16.

He kicks off the song by remarking that he was “outside” while coming up and not “beefing on computers.” From there, he mentions Wack 100 and No Jumper by name before remarking, “Where these boys at, bet they harmless / That ain’t disrespect, they say it’s content.” He goes on to bring up VladTV and Million Dollaz Worth of Game, among others.

Why Are Maino & 50 Cent Beefing?

Eventually, Maino drops more shots for 50 Cent, with whom he has been beefing for months. The song’s title appears to reference an upcoming album he’s working on. Their rivalry heated up again last week when Maino released his diss track, “Bleed Like Us.” Their feud stems from an episode of the Let’s Rap About It podcast, when Maino, Jim Jones, Fabolous, and Dave East criticized 50’s Netflix docuseries, Sean Combs: The Reckoning.

When 50 Cent responded by trolling them on social media, the group teamed up for the “Squatter’s Rights” freestyle. 50 eventually returned fire with the music video for his Max B collaboration, “No More Tricks, No More Tries.” Seemingly using artificial intelligence, 50 poked fun at all of the Let’s Rap About It crew. Speaking with TMZ back in December, Maino joked that beefing with 50 Cent has been profitable. “Beefing with 50 is good business,” he remarked. “Numbers is up, podcast is up, engagement is up. I wish I woulda known this a long time ago.”

In addition to the drama with Maino, 50 Cent has also been feuding with T.I. in recent weeks. He dropped an untitled song to address all of the drama on Friday. In the caption, he hinted at having more music in store. He wrote: “I’d Fvck these up if they jump me in real life a bunch of punks. THE ALGORITHM is coming!”
