When it came to Budden, Drake did not hold back. As you will read below, he claimed to have slept with Budden’s girlfriend. Subsequently, he referenced the time Budden was seen naked in the hallway of his building.

“I watched this guy spasm with a puzzled face,” Drake raps. “Who knows which one of his bubble shaped tings I must’ve ushered through the double gates. Showed her the time of her life while broski having stomach aches, hearing ’bout good times at lovers lake and send her back to you while you sleepwalking naked in another state. […] Ah, you’ll live to see another day, and even if you don’t, it’s just another day. We ain’t crying for your punk ass anyway.”

These bars certainly started a firestorm on social media. After all, Budden can be opinionated on his podcast, and fans were excited to hear his response. Instead of waiting for his podcast, Budden hopped on an X Spaces broadcast with his longtime business partner, Ian Schwartzman.

Joe Budden Responds

It was here that Budden and Schwartzman acknowledged that everyone is going to get some bars on the new Drake record. Budden subsequently joked that he and Ian are going to need to paywall their next few episodes. While he laughed off the suggestion, Budden certainly understands there is a market for his commentary on the album.

As for the bars about Budden’s girlfriend, those were mostly ignored. Clearly, Joe is well aware of what was said. Perhaps he is waiting for that aforementioned paywalled podcast to reveal how he truly feels about all of this.

Either way, ICEMAN‘s official release goes down tonight, and Drake has gotten everyone’s attention.

At the same time, it was speculated that the father of her child was 21 Savage. For years, there were rumblings that the two were a couple. However, they never confirmed this to be the case. Once Latto announced her pregnancy, her relationship with 21 was revealed to the world.

Since that time, Latto has announced that her next album, Big Mama, will be her last. As of May 29, she will be retiring from the rap game. Whether or not she sticks to that plan remains to be seen.

What we do know is that fans are now speculating that she has already given birth to her child. This is all because of a video posted to social media, in which Latto reveals that she could not attend her recent Mother’s Day event.

Has Latto Given Birth?

Fans are speculating that her absence is a direct result of having given birth. Furthermore, throughout the video, a baby can be heard making some quiet noises. It is easy to put two and two together to deduce that perhaps Latto’s child has been born.

While Latto has not made such an announcement, there are numerous fans on social media who are pushing this theory. Ultimately, it is not far-fetched, given the evidence that has been provided.

With that being said, the artist will officially announce the arrival of her child when she is ready to do so. In the meantime, her fans will gear up for the new album, which is two weeks away.

In addition to the attempted murder charge, Eatherly has been hit with a plethora of other big charges. For instance, he was charged with employing a firearm during a dangerous felony, aggravated assault, and reckless endangerment with a deadly weapon.

These charges stem from an incident that took place in front of a courthouse in Clarksville, Tennessee, on Wednesday. According to reports and police phone calls, Eatherly allegedly instigated a fight with a man outside the courthouse. The man allegedly approached Chud The Builder and attacked him with his hands. That’s when Eatherly allegedly took out his gun and shot the man.

Chud The Builder Finally Faces Consequences

The Associated Press also reported that Chud The Builder was supposed to be in court on Wednesday for an unpaid credit card bill. At this time, there is no indication that he actually went to his hearing.

Additionally, it was reported that the streamer may have grazed his arm with his own weapon. In clips posted to social media, Eatherly could be seen on a stretcher, being attended to by paramedics.

This past Sunday, Eatherly was arrested for refusing to pay a $400 bill at a Nashville steakhouse. When he got accused of being unruly in the restaurant, he began acting erratically and was subsequently arrested. He also received theft of services, disorderly conduct, and resisting arrest charges.

Overall, this is yet another example of how internet clout is completely breaking people’s brains. Chud The Builder is clearly a disgusting individual, and for many online, his recent arrests are an example that perhaps there is Karma in this world.

Last night, the two ended up linking with one another in a very public way. As captured by the broadcast team, Em and Fif were sitting courtside together at the Detroit Pistons and Cleveland Cavaliers game. The game was taking place in Eminem’s native Detroit, so it should come as no surprise that he would be in attendance.

As for 50 Cent, he is always showing up at NBA games, regardless of which teams are involved. Clearly, he wanted to take in an intriguing playoff matchup between two of the Eastern Conference’s heavyweights. Regardless, the prospect of seeing Em and 50 together was enough to get fans both excited and nostalgic.

Unfortunately, for Eminem specifically, the Detroit Pistons lost the game in overtime, despite having a big lead down the stretch. The Cleveland Cavaliers now lead the series 3-2, with Game 6 going down in Cleveland.

The winner of this series is going to go on to play the New York Knicks in the Eastern Conference Final. On the opposite side of the bracket, the Oklahoma City Thunder are awaiting the winner of the San Antonio Spurs and Minnesota Timberwolves series. A Thunder and Spurs Western Conference Finals would be a huge needle-mover for the league.

As for the Eastern Conference, it does feel like this is the year the Knicks break out and go back to the NBA Finals.

Last night, three songs leaked, including “1 AM In Albany,” which features some cutthroat bars. People like Kendrick Lamar, LeBron James, Joe Budden, and even Dr. Dre all received shots on the song. Whether or not this track ends up on ICEMAN is something that still remains to be seen.

Tonight, at 9:45 PM EST, Drake will be releasing ICEMAN Episode 4. This is set to be his biggest episode yet, and we imagine it will answer some of our burning questions. That said, some fans are still very much curious about when exactly the album will be hitting streaming services.

When Does ICEMAN Drop?

According to a text that Drake sent Dr. Calvin Jung, the album has been submitted. If that is truly the case, then the project should be ready for a midnight release. In the past, Drake would make the album available at 6 AM EST; however, his albums weren’t submitted yet because he was waiting on a feature or a mix.

This time around, it feels as though Drizzy is ready to get this album up on time. Overall, this is great news for Drake fans who were planning on staying up past midnight to get in a listening session.

For now, it should be noted that Drake has not confirmed the release time. Instead, we are simply going off some of the context provided. If anything changes, we will be sure to keep you informed.

At this time, we still do not know what time the album is going to be dropping. In the past, Drake has released his albums at 6 AM EST. That said, his ICEMAN live stream suggests we will get the album at midnight, on the dot.

One thing we do know for sure is how fans can listen to the album.

Drake Is Ready To Drop “ICEMAN”

Once the album officially releases, you will be able to consume the project on various platforms. Digital Streaming Platforms such as Spotify, Tidal, and even Apple Music will all be carrying the project. Furthermore, it is expected that the songs will also be released on YouTube.

From there, fans can expect Drake to eventually release physical copies, such as vinyl and CDs. This is par for the course with any Drizzy project, and fans shouldn’t expect too many surprises when it comes to album delivery.

If you were expecting some Kanye STEM player shenanigans, you will be sorely disappointed. Regardless, this is a very exciting night for hip-hop. Even if you don’t love Drake as an artist, you cannot deny that a new album is going to move the needle.
