“I just don’t do sellouts, especially in this moment,” she told TMZ last month. “Things are too serious. There are too many people that are being harmed.”

“And especially with her being an immigrant, then deciding to go and cozy up to this administration that is specifically putting targets on the backs of immigrants and anyone who stands with them,” Crockett continued. “That is wrong, and I don’t even understand how you can play with it and pretend like it’s anything but wrong.”

At the time, Crockett added that she’s “always” been more of a Cardi B fan anyway.

Cardi B Supports Jasmine Crockett

“What happened to jasmine Crockett was karma, this woman clowned Nicki Minaj and others Insulting the Latino community and then tried to remake herself you can’t burn bridges, and win elections,” one Barb writes on Twitter/X. “The Barbz and Nicki always get the last laugh!,” another claims.

News of Crockett’s loss comes just a few days after Cardi B showed her support for her in a PSA on her Instagram Story. “Listen up, y’all, early primary voting is happening right now in Texas, and we need Jasmine Crockett to win,” she explained. “She is running for U.S. Senate and if you want somebody that’s going to fight for your rights, if you want somebody to fight for your community, if you want somebody that’s going to go up there and represent you and represent your issues, please vote for my sister, Jasmine Crockett.”

Crockett reposted Cardi’s message on Twitter/X, captioning it, “Okurrr. Y’all heard my good sis!!! She’s on a SOLD OUT tour and still took a minute to tap in. We’ve got 2 days of Early Voting left. Let’s gooooo!!! #JasmineForUS #TexasTough.”

In one of the clips caught by Live Bitez, the 21-year-old is rapping along to Cardi’s breakout hit, “Bodak Yellow.” Nicki’s rabid fans immediately pounced on her in the comments section for this perceived betrayal.

“That’s some opp sh*t [100 emoji shrugging emoji] but I’m sure yall think it’s cool huh?” one upset Barb types. Well she said her and Nicki didn’t have a close relationship [shrugging emoji]” another says.

However, fans aren’t just fuming over her support of Cardi’s tour. In a separate video, Ming Li appears to be in a section at a club with Nicki’s rival femcee following the performance.

“Looks like she’s about to be removed [laughing emoji],” a third person shadily comments. A fourth declares, “Betrayal at it’s absolute finest [thumbs down emoji].”

Interestingly, Ming appeared to respond to all of that criticism in some more recent Instagram Story posts. “At the end of the day we all grown and some of the drama and whatever is not finna matter in the future,” she wrote in one upload.

She followed up with, “Pick a side? No side who said u can’t love both? Yall just want a drama that ain’t nobody but the “fans” gonna say. Like let’s be fr we grown and when yall get old and wrinkly what we post ain’t gonna matter so respectfully idgaf [crying laughing emoji].”

Overall, the relationship between Ming and Nicki has always been a bit rocky despite what the former has said. In an interview in May 2025, she told a reporter that “I love my sister.” However, that feeling has seemingly never been reciprocated on the Young Money icon’s end.

While she’s never directly addressed Ming by name before, her comments and the timing of them suggest there’s friction. During a 2024 livestream Onika said in part, “Even with blood relation, what God has given to me is mine. You have to go and get your own. You have to discover whatever it is that you’re great at. Being a mooch and a clown don’t run in my DNA.”

That year Ming was also doing interviews centered around her relative.

One person Ak has been beefing with as of late is Mona AKA Don’t Call Me White Girl. Mona is a co-host on the Joe Budden Podcast and is the spiritual successor to Melyssa Ford. She has become quite popular on the podcast, although it is clear that she and Akademiks do not get along.

Mona has made that crystal clear, and in a recent rant, Akademiks did everything he could to shake her. In the midst of their feud, Akademiks brought up the fact that Mona had gone through a traumatic health situation involving multiple strokes. At the time, Mona was upset that Akademiks would stoop that low.

Well, last night, Akademiks decided that it would be appropriate to stoop even lower.

DJ Akademiks Goes Off On Mona

In the clip above, Akademiks calls Mona a “crack whore,” all while wishing death upon her. He says that he wishes she had died from her strokes, and that Joe Budden isn’t going to save her from all of this. Ak says Joe did not come to his defense when Mona was talking about him. He believes that the same goes for Ak talking poorly about Mona.

Quite frankly, the rant is a bit shocking, and the negative Karma that could come from these kinds of comments is severe. However, Akademiks does not appear to care. His mission was simple. Hurt Mona as much as possible with his words. Whether or not she even pays attention to the rant remains to be seen.

Perhaps Budden will need to get these two in a room to mend fences. It can’t be easy for the podcaster to have to deal with two friends who are ideologically opposite ends of the spectrum.

So, it’s fitting that Baby Keem is celebrating that achievement and giving the fans what they want by dropping the accompanying video for said track. It’s another visually appealing watch and making it even better is the fact that the song’s guests, Kendrick Lamar and Momo Boyd appear throughout it.

Directed by Renell Medrano (Lorde & Bad Bunny), the four-minute watch is dark, gloomy, and slightly grainy. It represents the song’s lyrics well, which detail a once strong relationship that came to an end.

While feelings are still there for Keem, he tries to search for a “good flirt” and a fun one-night stand on the weekend to fill the void. But ultimately, it doesn’t do much as he reminisces about those phone calls and experiences they shared.

That’s reflected in the video as Keem tries to engage with another woman.

Shifting focus to Lamar, a lot has been made about his verse and his inclusion feeling forced and out of place. His section takes the song in a goofier direction with lyrics about crushing on booty and plaques inside lady parts.

But underneath, his lyrics still fit the theme of the track; they just have a more toxic and playful tone than Boyd and Keem’s.

When Did Baby Keem Drop Ca$ino?

As a result, it doesn’t feel like there’s a halt/massive switch-up in tone visually speaking either. What’s also a tad ironic is that “Good Flirts” is performing well streaming wise. In fact, it’s the most played song on Spotify, with nearly 12.1 million streams.

The title track is a small step behind at around 11.5 million plays.

Baby Keem dropped Ca$ino on February 20, ending what was almost a full five years since his last LP, The Melodic Blue. The project contains 11 songs on DSPs but 12 on physicals. On top of the Momo Boyd and Kendrick Lamar placements, Too $hort and Che Ecru (x2 on physical copies) appear as well.

It’s Keem’s most direct and personal listen as he reflects on his rough childhood, complex family dynamics, and more.

That’s what we are to assume anyway based on this clip caught by Live Bitez. The video is of The Voice’s oldest daughter Bella, whom he shares with ex-partner Nicole Covone. She explains to her viewers that she’s going to pull the “PC Unit” prank on him during their jail call.

For those who don’t know, the PC unit is a sector inside a jail for people who need extra protection from the general inmates. It’s typically used for higher profile offenders. However, it could also just be for those who have specific concerns for their safety.

After explaining to Durk that she’s got a friend who’s in a similar situation with her dad, Bella tells him that she told this schoolmate that he was in this PC unit.

When Is Lil Durk’s Murder-For-Hire Trial?

Bella eventually told him it was prank, which got a good laugh out of him. However, he did confirm that he’s not in protective custody. “PC is protective custody. That’s when you scared to be on the floor with regular people. I ain’t in no PC, girl,” he half-joked.

Overall, though, fans see this as a pretty wholesome moment between daughter and daddy. “Wow that’s a good dad,” one Instagram user replied. [Laughing emoji] He’s so chill,” another writes.

However, some feel there’s a time and place for quips like this. “Durk in the Feds fightin for his life and she on the internet playing,” an X user pens. A second adds, “Baby girl you supposed to wait till he beat the case that man life on the line he ain’t tryna play that game rn.”

Either way, it sounds like Lil Durk is doing what he can to be strong and be there for his kids.

Hopefully, things will get better soon though as his murder-for-hire trial was recently delayed until August 25. However, there’s a chance Durk’s appearance gets bumped up. “Lil Durk’s trial moved to 8/25/26 at a hearing today, but there’s a catch,” Rolling Stone reporter Nancy Dillon tweeted. “If the judge grants pending motion from 3 co-defendants seeking to sever their cases from Durk’s trial, Durk wants to go sooner. The 8/25 date was set to accommodate defense for codefendant, not Durk.”

Cam finds himself in one of those situations right now. On the most recent episode of his show, Cam’ron responded to Chad Ochocinco’s recent comments about Cam engaging in a boxing match. Ocho doesn’t believe Cam can box. Clearly, the rapper was not feeling too good about those comments.

During the conversation below, Cam decided to deliver an aside about Ocho that had absolutely nothing to do with the conversation at hand. These are comments that could have severe consequences for Ocho and his relationship with Nightcap co-host Shannon Sharpe.

Cam’ron Claps Back At Ochocinco

As Cam’ron explains, there was a time a couple of years ago when Shannon was dealing with some significant legal issues. This led to Sharpe losing his job at ESPN. It also led to a drop-off in views as some fans no longer wanted to watch his show.

Ochocinco was hyper-aware of everything that was going on and seemingly wanted to get himself an exit strategy, just in case things went wrong. Cam’ron explained how Ocho actually called him in the midst of this controversy. While Cam was reluctant to share exact details of the call, he insinuated that Ocho was trying to join It Is What It Is.

This is a bit of a low blow, and probably shouldn’t have been revealed. Making fun of your boxing prowess is one thing, but portraying Ocho in this way is going a bit too far. While one can understand responding to such claims, it does feel as though this was a bit of a petty retort.

It could have significant implications for Shannon and Ocho’s show. Only time will tell if they remain cordial.

Over the past few months, the Cardi and Nicki feud has seemingly been on pause. Cardi has been focused on relationship issues with both Offset and Stefon Diggs. Meanwhile, Nicki Minaj is focused on her newfound friendship with Donald Trump. She has also been going on crusades against Jay-Z.

Recently, DJ Akademiks and Cardi B hopped on a phone call together, and it supposedly lasted a couple of hours. As Akademiks explains, the two were gossiping to one another. While he didn’t exactly reveal the exact minutia of the call, he did make some interesting revelations.

For instance, the conversation uncovered the truth behind the Cardi B and Nicki Minaj beef, and where it currently stands amidst the chaos.

Cardi B’s Thoughts On Nicki Minaj Have Been Revealed

As Akademiks bluntly puts it, Cardi B does not care a lick about Nicki Minaj. In her day-to-day life, Cardi simply does not think about Nicki. Consequently, there is very little risk of this beef being reignited, anytime soon.

Akademiks went on to say that, as it stands, it feels as though Nicki is in the same boat when it comes to Cardi. Nicki is not thinking about Cardi in any way, shape, or form. Instead, Nicki is more focused on her political ambitions and the work she has done with the Trump administration.

While some fans might be surprised by all of this, others probably feel as though it is ultimately for the best. After all, the feud got pretty heated and has already gone to a dark place. It is probably best that both artists protect their energy and focus on something else entirely.

There’s even a title being floated out there as well which is Surviving T.I. & Tiny. The tentatively named project would resurface old sexual assault allegations from several women against the couple. T.I. and Tiny have remained steadfast, swearing up and down that they have never conducted such behavior.

In fact, T.I. explained that him and Tiny do have unique preferences intimacy wise. But they have always asked for consent. After disturbing accusations were brought forth in 2021 by one alleged victim, Sabrina Peterson, Tip responded, “I will say this: Whatever we ever have done has been done with consensual adults who into what we into and like what we like. If we want something, we know exactly where to go get it.”

As of yet, no convictions have resulted from these allegations. But focusing back on the reported documentary/docuseries, nothing is set in stone right now.

However, 50 Cent did send a fair warning to his Atlanta foe with a grim Instagram post. The since-deleted upload, which flashed the Star 94.5 report about said documentary, was captioned, “Remember how quiet I got before the Diddy doc, Dame thought I wasn’t coming. I hope this doesn’t mess up your promo tour; they’re gonna ask about your 20 sexual assault cases. You might want to talk to a crisis PR person.”

Is 50 Cent Dropping New Music?

Of course, this all stems from their reignited feud, which came to a head in late February. After 50 labeled T.I. a snitch, the latter fired back with claims that he backed out of a Verzuz battle. The “Candy Shop” hitmaker then took a shot at his enemy’s wife, Tameka “Tiny” Harris, by posting an unflattering photo of her.

That brought T.I.’s son, King Harris, into the mix, and the father-son duo would go on to drop a combined six diss tracks. As per usual, Fif has stuck to his memes and trolling on social media, which he’s been condemned for.

However, he may have something in the works. In that same since-deleted post, 50 claimed that he had some new music dropping soon. “[fire emoji] new music today [clapping hand emojis].” Whether or not it’s going to be a diss response remains to be seen. But there’s also potential for it to be some lost material as The Massacre just turned 21 two days ago.
