Per The Shade Room and Live Bitez, the 45-year-old hopped on a remix of DJ MAC and CrashDummy’s single “W.Y.F.L.” (What You Feel Like). However, this venomous version of the track is titled “Why You F*cking Lying.”

Over a thumping riddim beat, Remy Ma sounds off the rumors that Papoose has ghost written most of her songs. In fact, she does what she can to shut them down completely.

“The nerve of n****s claiming that they wrote those hits when they whole career they ain’t never ghost wrote sh*t.” She then adds, “Not for me or anybody else / You always act like you helped a n****, go help yourself!“

But Ma also had time for the GWOAT dropping lines like, “In competition with herself, I don’t know that b****… / H*es be doing the most over so-so d*ck.”

Remy Ma’s Beef With Papoose & Claressa Shields

She also dubs Shields as not “bad enough,” a claim that the boxing superstar took exception to. As caught by Live Bitez, she took to her Instagram Story to clap back. “Throwing shade from the gutter has to be a crazy experience,” she says suggesting that she’s up and Remy isn’t.

Moreover, she posted again this time with a picture of herself alongside Zeus Network CEO Lemuel Plummer. Apparently, she is getting her Baddies series, which is arguably the media company’s most popular show.

Papoose has yet to respond to his ex’s shots it seems. But with Shields defending herself, we have to imagine that it won’t be long until he speaks his mind. Ma’s song with DJ MAC and CrashDummy dropped today, April 10.

They came out during one of the greatest individual seasons in NBA history. They appeared in one of the most culturally significant films of that decade. And they introduced a design that sneakerheads are still talking about more than 35 years later. Here they all are, ranked from worst to best.

The Shoe That Almost Didn’t Happen

By 1988, Nike and Michael Jordan were still finding their footing together. The Air Jordan 1 had been a commercial phenomenon. But it was a design that Jordan himself was lukewarm on.

The Air Jordan 2 had been an underwhelming follow-up that left both sides looking for a reset. Enter Tinker Hatfield, the designer who had already saved the relationship with the Air Jordan 3. He was now tasked with doing it again.

Hatfield focused on making the shoe lighter and more functional than anything Jordan had worn before. He introduced over-molded mesh side panels for breathability. He added plastic support wings on the lace cage for stability. And he carried over the visible heel Air unit from the 3.

When the shoe launched in February 1989 at the NBA All-Star Game in Houston, the public was skeptical. The shoe looked unlike anything Nike had produced before. They came around quickly.

The Season That Made The Shoe Legendary

What happened during the 1988-89 NBA season turned the Air Jordan 4 into a permanent piece of basketball history. Jordan had his best statistical season to date. He averaged 32.5 points, 8 rebounds, and 8 assists per game.

He won his third consecutive scoring title and his first league MVP award. Jordan wore the Air Jordan 4 throughout that season in multiple colorways. The defining moment came on May 7, 1989, in the first round of the playoffs against the Cleveland Cavaliers. With three seconds left, Jordan caught an inbounds pass, dribbled left, and launched a jumper over Craig Ehlo at the buzzer to win the series.

The Shot became one of the most iconic photographs in sports history. Jordan’s fist was raised in the air. Ehlo crumpled to the floor beneath him. He was wearing the “Black Cement” Air Jordan 4.

At the same time, Spike Lee’s film Do the Right Thing brought the “White Cement” colorway to a mainstream audience far beyond basketball. By the end of 1989, the Air Jordan 4 was everywhere.

4. Air Jordan 4 “Military Blue”

The “Military Blue” is the most stylistically unique of the four OG Air Jordan 4 colorways. It has always occupied its own lane because of it.

The white leather base with military blue accents and grey cement detailing on the wings and heel tab is one of the cleaner non-Bulls color combinations Hatfield ever put together. What makes this one particularly interesting is that Jordan never wore it in an NBA game. The colors simply didn’t match the Bulls’ uniform.

That lack of on-court history keeps it from ranking higher. But it has never hurt the shoe’s desirability among collectors. If anything, the fact that MJ never laced these up gives them a slightly mysterious appeal.

Every retro reminds people how well this colorway has aged. The 2024 version in particular brought back the original Nike Air heel branding and closer-to-OG shape. It was one of the best Jordan retros of that year.

3. Air Jordan 4 “Fire Red”

The “Fire Red” is the most underappreciated of the four OG Air Jordan 4 colorways. Jordan wore this colorway on court during the 1988-89 NBA season and into the start of the 1989-90 season. That gives it on-court credibility.

The white leather upper paired with fire red and black accents is bold and energetic. It communicates the same aggression as the “Black Cement” without going full blackout.

Several retro versions have dropped over the years. Some used “Varsity Red” instead of “Fire Red”. Some featured the Jumpman on the heel instead of Nike Air branding. But the versions that stay closest to the 1989 original are consistently some of the best-looking Jordan 4s ever produced.

The “Fire Red” belongs in more conversations than it typically gets. It easily holds its own against the two entries above it on this list.

2. Air Jordan 4 “White Cement”

The “White Cement” is the Air Jordan 4’s most culturally significant colorway by a considerable margin. The argument for putting it at number one is strong.

Jordan wore it throughout the 1988-89 regular season. Nike used it as the centerpiece of the Mars Blackmon advertising campaign with Spike Lee. It was also featured in Do the Right Thing in the now-legendary scene where Buggin’ Out’s pair gets scuffed.

The white leather base, cement grey speckled wings, and grey heel tab are the defining visual elements of the entire Air Jordan 4 silhouette. Every retro brings it back to the front of the conversation.

The 2016 Nike Air version in particular reminded the sneaker world why this colorway is considered one of the all-time greats. It sits at number two by the narrowest of margins.

1. Air Jordan 4 “Black Cement”

There was no other option for number one. The “Black Cement” is the Air Jordan 4 at its most iconic and most powerful. Jordan wore these during the 1989 playoffs, including Game 5 of the first round against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

That was the game where he hit The Shot over Craig Ehlo with three seconds left to win the series. One game. One all-time moment. One colorway cemented into history forever.

The black nubuck upper, cement grey wings, and red outsole detailing create one of the most visually striking color combinations in Jordan Brand history. The shoe has never looked anything less than perfect.

Every retro that restores the original Nike Air heel branding generates immediate excitement, and for good reason. The “Black Cement” is the Air Jordan 4. Everything else is competing for second place.

“Yall be reaching with the gucci s**t be bool and stop putting me and hate in the same sentence,” Waka Flocka wrote on his IG Story last night (Thursday, April 9). According to No Jumper on Twitter, he allegedly tweeted this about the Gucci situation last week: “Man y’all out yo f***ing mind if you think I’m a celebrate wop situation if tho we ain’t on one accord…none of my business carrying [BS].”

Also, as caught by DJ Akademiks TV on Instagram, Flocka Flame uploaded an IG Story today (Friday, April 10) of him seemingly mockingly quoting a line from the “Crash Dummy” diss track. Guwop recently launched that against Shiesty, which led to a lot of snitching debates.

“Put that ink to the paper, I was under duress,” Waka expressed. So maybe he does feel a way about this situation, but it seems like he’s not ready to comment on it any further. We’ll see if this changes in the near future, though, especially after what seems like a comical and dismissive reaction to “Crash Dummy.”

Gucci Mane & Waka Flocka Flame’s Beef

A post shared by Akademiks TV (@djakademikstv)

For those unaware, Gucci Mane and Waka Flocka Flame had beef, but they squashed it back in 2018. Their early 2010s feud stemmed from contract and management issues, allegedly unpaid royalties, and other business-related conflicts. While they might still have some bad blood, Waka Flocka isn’t harping on it for now.

Elsewhere, Gucci Mane snitching debates are rampant. Many folks feel like he snitched on Pooh Shiesty with “Crash Dummy,” in addition to an FBI agent’s recent court testimony that Gucci allegedly gave a statement to police about the alleged kidnapping and robbery. With this discourse in mind, many took Waka’s performance and ran with negativity. But the complex nature of this artist-to-artist dynamic will not be enough to quell more critical conversations.

He did so in July 2025 with “What Did I Miss?” the potential lead single for ICEMAN. Because of this fact, his fans/Kendrick Lamar haters alike have let the Compton native hear it online.

Especially because after Lamar was widely regarded as the winner in the feud with Drizzy, many believed were in the middle of the “Dot Era.”

Shortly after the victory, he went on to drop another massive record in GNX and performed at the Super Bowl. He also went on a record-breaking world tour and took home tons of Grammy awards amidst all of that.

But even though he’s been dominant in that sense, a lot of casual rap fans really value chart dominance. Unfortunately, Lamar hasn’t done much to keep the mainstream segment of rap all that relevant in this regard.

But TDE Punch, Lamar’s ex label boss, is stepping in to challenge this narrative that he’s not ruling the genre the way folks expect him to.

After catching wind of some hateful posts, Punch responded by saying that’s still the king and has been for some time.

Kendrick Lamar Breaks Hot 200 Record

First, he taunted the haters for their barrage of Hot 100 posts. “Ppl tagging me talking about the Hot 100. [three laughing emojis. “nO hIP HOp sOnGS iN THe hOT 100″ lol. So what!” he wrote per Kurrco.

He then fired back at a user directly mocking him that he swore this would be Lamar’s era and his alone. “It’s his era every time he drop an album. Been that way since gkmc.”

Overall, Punch isn’t trying to hear any sort of slander going forward. But based on the comments and his replies, it doesn’t seem like this debate will dwindle unless Lamar does what these people want him to do.

But in a way, Lamar is staying relevant as good kid, m.A.A.d city recently set a new Hot 200 record for the genre. Late last month, it became the first record of its kind to stay on this chart for 700 consecutive weeks. That roughly equates to 13 years. Right now, his sophomore album sits at number 67.

Initially caught by the Daily Mail, Ye shared a clip of some Chinese school children singing along to one of his new songs. In the video, the kids are performing their rendition of “ALL THE LOVE” featuring Andre Troutman. It’s one of the more popular tracks off the album, and it’s proving to be just that with this clip.

Interestingly, these kids have gone viral in years past for performing plenty of contemporary hits. In fact, this isn’t the first time they have sung a Kanye song. Other tracks include “Come To Life,” “Runaway,” and “Only One.”

But of course, this isn’t just a message to his doubters that he’s still making global hits. It’s more so to prove that he’s having a positive effect on the younger generation.

Given that his ban from the UK is a result of his hate speech against the Jewish community and support of the Nazis, assumedly, he feels this is a strong way to change the narrative.

It’s probably not going to do much, to be quite frank, but Ye has a plan in place, so we will see if it works.

Is Kanye West Allowed To Perform In The Netherlands?

While this hasn’t influenced anything yet, earlier this week, Dutch Asylum and Migration Minister Bart van den Brink confirmed that Ye will still be performing in the Netherlands. “Once I have such information, I will proceed accordingly. Based on what is currently known to me, I have no indication that an entry ban can be applied in this case,” he said.

Ye has two shows at the GelreDome, which is in the city of Arnhem, on June 6 and June 8.

Starting with Moneybagg, he reposted a collection of pictures and videos from his meeting with the two rappers from some time ago. As caught by No Jumper on Instagram, he wrote “Free Ball Free Shiest [100 emoji]” in an IG Story post from today (Friday, April 10) that featured their conversation.

Asian Doll had already blasted Gucci Mane and 1017 Records over this alleged altercation. She had her own fallout with Guwop, accusing him of taking advantage of young artists. “FREE POOH SHIESTY & BIG 30!! #SnitchK,” Doll tweeted. “Rat a** n***a a pure b***h,” she added in another tweet, following that up with a retweet of another user’s post. The post was responding to another fan who said Gucci doesn’t go back to Atlanta and his neighborhood anymore because it triggers his schizophrenia, calling for more sympathy and separation from his old life and his new one.

“But he signs troubled hood kids so he can steal their money lol. Stop switching the goalposts,” the post that Asian Doll retweeted today stated.

For those unaware, Big30 is in a deal with Moneybagg’s Bread Gang imprint. They work with NLess Entertainment, through which Big dropped his most recent releases. So this solidarity makes sense, although Moneybagg Yo has worked with Gucci Mane before.

As for Asian Doll, her criticisms of Guwop span a long set of years, so her support for Pooh Shiesty is also unsurprising. Amid many other MCs and hip-hop figures’ debates over this matter, more and more folks continue to draw their lines in the sand.

Pooh Shiesty was arrested on April 1 for the alleged Gucci Mane kidnapping, and Big30 was arrested shortly after. Their legal cases are still in early development, but folks are hanging onto every detail. Elsewhere, hip-hop loyalties continue to complicate themselves.

Tekashi 6ix9ine can’t believe folks are, in his view, making excuses for Guwop and picking which MCs to scrutinize for this. In a social media video caught by No Jumper on Instagram, he went off on the Alabama native for his new song.

First, Tekashi showed old videos and songs of Gucci saying he would never snitch or cooperate with police, and then played some lyrics from the song. He was quite livid about the situation and ranted about his perceptions of hypocrisy concerning hip-hop’s assessment of other rappers compared to their assessments of him.

Then, 6ix9ine flaunted stacks of cash and threw them at a picture of Gucci Mane. “WHY YOU ALWAYS GOT TO SAY SOMETHING???” he captioned his post. “IM THE ONLYYYYYYY PERSON THAT CAN SPEA ON THIS EVERYYYYYTIMMMMMME. YALL BLACKBALLED ME AND TRY TO TAKE FOOD FROM MY FAMILYS MOUTH WHEN YALL KNEW ALL THE FACTSSS!!! FOR 5 YEARS I EXPOSED THE RAP GAME BUT BECAUSE IM NOT BLACK I GET A DIFFERENT TREATMENT (that itself hurts some of you because THE TRUTH hurts) SUCK MY D**K.”

Gucci Mane Responds To Pooh Shiesty

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by No Jumper (@nojumper)

Gucci Mane’s assessment of the alleged Pooh Shiesty robbery emerged in full force on “Crash Dummy.” There are many specific lyrics that allude to the alleged incident, such as “Pen to the paper, but it’s under duress” and “I thought it was a business meeting, but it was a set-up.” However, he hasn’t specifically addressed the snitching allegations surrounding him.

What’s more is that Gucci Mane allegedly gave police a statement, according to an FBI agent who testified in court recently. But the details are still up for debate, and folks are going back and forth over how to take this. We’ll see if Pooh Shiesty says anything else behind bars, whether personally or from his legal team.

As caught by Kurrco on Twitter, he revealed the release date for the LP: July 17. We’re still a few months away from the drop, but considering its surprising context, fans are pretty curious as to what the tracklist will contain. We already got the first single for it: “One Of Them” featuring Lil Baby and Future.

Given the DJ’s past full-lengths, fans expect a similarly star-studded, lengthy, and sonically varied tracklist on the way. Will Drizzy actually appear on it twice? We will have to wait to find out.

“Aalam” is a term derived from Arabic meaning “world” or “universe,” which also points to the presumably expansive direction of the album. We will see whether or not it ends up being one of DJ Khaled’s best releases or a lowlight in the discography.

“One Of Them”

“One Of Them” already got fans ready with fiery performances from Lil Baby and Future over a dramatic piano-led trap instrumental. It’s not anything fans haven’t heard before, but it seems like those who like the direction will be pleased with Aalam Of God.

Still, this album announcement came with jokes about the situation with the 6ix God. More recently, DJ Khaled spoke on staying neutral in Drake’s beefs, as he’s also close with Rick Ross and Future. “I’m the one out of the crew that always says ‘Yo, we don’t need that,'” he said. “We need to come together, we need love… At the same time, we don’t wanna slow up the money. I love Drake, I love Ross, I love Future… Those are my brothers, you can’t question my friendships.”

But DJ Khaled does have tension to handle, as he recently received a staunch call-out from T-Pain for an alleged lack of loyalty. We’ll see if Aalam Of God includes a reunion…

Realizing that life is made up of quiet wins and loud losses…. Life’s a gamble and I’m still playing to win. $ET.”

“Offset has been released from the hospital and he is up and walking,” a spokesperson for the Georgia rapper stated. “We’re incredibly grateful to the doctors, nurses, and the entire hospital staff who took such great care of him.”

Fortunately, it seems like he has fully and successfully recovered from the shooting. The exact details of that incident remain unclear per official sources.

Offset & Lil Tjay’s Beef

As for Lil Tjay’s side of the Offset story, his lawyer issued the following statement after his arrest. “We are issuing this release in regards to false rumors that Lil Tjay was involved in a shooting which occurred at the Valet Area of the Seminole Hard Rock Hollywood which resulting in non-life threatening injuries to Offset, formerly a member of Migos. Lil Tjay has not been shot, nor has Lil Tjay been charged with any shooting. Any reporting to the contrary is false. We encourage people to consult trusted news sources, and to verify the accuracy of any reporting, before reflexively sharing or repeating baseless rumors.”

For those unaware, Offset and Lil Tjay’s beef allegedly stems from gambling money the former owed the latter. Tjay accused ‘Set of being a snitch, whereas the latter denied the former was the one to shoot him. He also taunted the New York MC online, so this feud is far from over. But the specific details around these developments remain largely unclear at press time.

As caught by Kurrco on Twitter, he took to social media to share a video of his flabbergasted reaction to hearing the diss track. “This s**t gotta be A.I.,” the caption reads. “N***a snitched on a Zaytoven beat, that’s crazy,” the Indiana MC expressed in the clip.

As such, it seems like Gibbs took a stance on Gucci Mane’s snitching allegations regarding Pooh Shiesty. Many folks feel like Guwop’s lyrical references to the alleged incident constitute as snitching. In addition, an FBI agent recently testified in court that Gucci gave a statement to police about the alleged altercation.

Freddie Gibbs’ reaction here shows the general public response to “Crash Dummy,” as fans are debating which “side” to take here. The discussion is around whether or not Gucci was justified in doing this and allegedly providing testimony against Shiesty. Like many hip-hop debates around the streets and legal complications, things are not as simple as social media would have you believe.

“Crash Dummy” Lyrics

As for what Gucci Mane actually says about Pooh Shiesty on “Crash Dummy,” it’s not hard to catch the references. The lyrics include lines like “Tell the truth, you went out like a real crash dummy / And after all that, boy, you still signed to me” and “You learn from your daddy, so I guess that it’s hereditary / I’m that same n***a that put money on your commissary.” He signed the Memphis spitter to his 1017 Records label earlier this decade.

But the discussion around this doesn’t just concern “Crash Dummy” and Gucci’s alleged cooperation. Pooh Shiesty is fighting this Gucci Mane case despite a bond denial, as his lawyer Bradford Cohen recently said he’s in “good spirits.” Criticisms of the diss track from Freddie Gibbs and many others likely validate this optimism, although things might not pan out well for Pooh in court. But again, we have to wait and see.
