Drake’s back on top of the charts, but with new beef surfacing. Sauce Walka and the mother of his child have been going back and forth online. His BM, Kylie Lossen, shared audio recordings of their conversation where the Houston rapper seemingly threatens Drake. It seems related to the romantic connection between Drake and Lossen, though Sauce Walka has denied that to be the case.

However, Lossen has been slowly revealing the tension between the two rappers. In her recent posts, she alleged that Sauce Walka destroyed a Maybach that Drake gifted her while revealing another audio recording where the rapper threatened to embarrass the Toronto star. 

Thus far, Drake hasn’t publicly acknowledged or addressed any of the supposed threats made by Sauce Walka. However, his right-hand man has. OVO Chubbs slid into the comment section of a @keep6ixsolid post about Sauce Walka with three laughing emojis while shrugging off the possibility of violence. “N***a ain’t gone do nothing,” Chubbs wrote.

Chubbs Fires Back At Sauce Walka

Moreover, Chubbs has seemingly indicated that Drake has been throwing subliminal shots at Sauce Walka on his recent releases from ICEMAN. Some have attributed a few bars from “JANICE STFU” as disses to Sauce Walka. However, Chubbs seemingly confirmed that Drake also had a few bars for Sauce on “Make Them Cry.” 

“I put the ‘man’ in ‘manipulation’ when I pay your rent and that is an obligation to our attachment/ Then I sprinkle in a little Mercedes and fashion,” Drake raps on the song. While Akademiks broke down those lyrics, Chubbs appeared to like the post. 

With rumors of new music on the way, maybe we’ll get a more concrete response from Drake in the near future. Check out Chubbs’ comments above and let us know your thoughts in the comments.

Quando Rondo Reportedly Released From Prison https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/997109-quando-rondo-prison-release Tue, 02 Jun 2026 16:33:56 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=997109 Quando Rondo was sentenced to 33-months in prison on federal drug charges.

Quando Rondo is almost on his way home. According to Akademiks, the Never Broke Again signee has been released from prison and into a halfway house. The 27-year-old rapper is reportedly located in Atlanta, GA, where he will complete the remainder of his sentence.

The Savannah, GA rapper has been incarcerated since January 2025 for federal drug charges after pleading guilty to drug conspiracy and participating in criminal street gang activity. He was sentenced to 33 months in prison along with three years under supervised release and a $40K fine. Moreover, he will have to avoid contact with gang members, get mental health treatment, and undergo regular drug testing upon his release.

Prior to his prison sentence, Quando Rondo indicated that he planned to turn his life around. “As cr*zy as it sounds, that’s enough time to really sit down, rehabilitate myself, and come up with better plans for my family and friends,” he said around the time of his sentencing. Around the time he made those statements, he also offered an apology for his actions. 

The rapper has also hinted at the possibility of falling back from music once he completes his sentence. It’s unclear if he still plans to follow through with those plans, but we could imagine that he has a lot to get off his chest these days.

We will keep you all posted on any further updates surrounding Quando Rondo. Check out Akademiks post above and sound off in the comments with your thoughts.

Larsa Pippen’s Son Suggests Kids Used To Bully Him About His Mom’s Alleged Affair With Future https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/997097-larsa-pippen-preston-pippen-future-affair Tue, 02 Jun 2026 15:46:41 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=997097 Larsa Pippen and Future reportedly had an affair with each other about 10 years ago, and Preston Pippen still feels the effects.

The post Larsa Pippen’s Son Suggests Kids Used To Bully Him About His Mom’s Alleged Affair With Future appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
Years ago, it was reported that Larsa Pippen and Future were having an affair while Pippen was still married to NBA legend Scottie Pippen. In the end, the two got divorced, and Future took some subliminal shots in his music.

Since that time, Larsa Pippen’s dating life has been on full display for the world to see. She even dated Marcus Jordan, the son of Scottie’s current nemesis, Michael Jordan. Now, Scottie and Larsa’s 23-year-old son Preston is starring on a Netflix show called Calabasas Confidential. It is here that he is getting exceptionally honest about his relationship with Larsa and what he’s gone through in light of her dating life.

“It was just all over the place. You would think, at that age, when you’re going to school, that it is safe and you’re dodging the drama at home,” Pippen said. “People I thought were my friends would make jokes, and there’s already so much noise in the house.”

Preston Pippen On His Mom’s Relationships

Preston Pippen then went on to say that kids used to play a rapper’s music as he walked through the halls at school. Presumably, this is about Future. He dealt with this when he was just 15, and it just goes to show the effects of celebrity gossip in the household.

“My parents got divorced when I was 15, and it was really tough because there was an affair,” Preston explained. “Kids at school, like my friends, would play music by a rapper that my mom was taking to at the time, and it was just s****y. I am removed from it now, so it’s easy to kind of talk about.”

Ultimately, you can’t help but feel for the kid. This is not exactly something that you prepare for. Not to mention, teenagers can be cruel, and they will seek to exploit your insecurities.

Diddy Potentially Facing New Criminal Charges In L.A. County https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/997099-diddy-criminal-charges-la-county-review Tue, 02 Jun 2026 15:36:30 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=997099 L.A. County District Attorney is reviewing a sexual battery claim made by publicist Jonathan Hay.

The post Diddy Potentially Facing New Criminal Charges In L.A. County appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
Diddy’s troubles don’t seem to be ending any time soon. According to TMZ, L.A. County D.A.’s spokesperson, Venusse Dunn, said that they are currently reviewing new claims of sexual battery based on a police report filed by publicist Jonathan Hay in September 2025. 

Hay alleges that he encountered Diddy while working with CJ Wallace, Biggie Smalls’s son, on a remix project. However, he accused the disgraced mogul of assaulting him on two occasions, once in 2020 and again in 2021. In September 2020, he said that he was left alone with Diddy, who he claims masturbated into a shirt that Biggie once owned and told him to “come finish him off.” Diddy allegedly threw the shirt at Hay afterward.

Separately, Hay accused Diddy of forcing his penis into his mouth in March 2021 after labeling him a “snitch.” In this particular situation, Hay said that he was working with CJ on their project.

At this point, no charges against Diddy have been filed, but TMZ reports that the LAPD investigated the claims and presented the case to the D.A. If there’s enough evidence, then Diddy could potentially face new criminal charges.

The case was previously filed in Hay’s hometown in Florida. However, since the crimes were allegedly committed in L.A., the case was transferred.

Diddy’s Troubles Continue

Diddy is currently serving a 50-month sentence for violating the Mann Act following his highly publicized trial last year. The mogul was found guilty in a federal court of transporting people across state lines for sexual purposes. 

At this point, Diddy’s representatives have yet to comment on the possibility of fresh charges in L.A. We will keep you posted on any further updates on the matter.

Daphne Joy Asks “Does Size Really Matter?” Following Diddy Sex Tape Leak https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/997093-daphne-joy-size-matter-instagram-diddy-sex-tape Tue, 02 Jun 2026 14:40:19 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=997093 Daphne Joy has drawn some the anger of observers online after making light of her leaked sex tape, despite a recent statement condemning it.

The post Daphne Joy Asks “Does Size Really Matter?” Following Diddy Sex Tape Leak appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
Over the weekend, a sex tape was leaked featuring Diddy, Daphne Joy, and Sly Diggler. This immediately became the biggest story of the day, even with Jay-Z’s Roots Picnic freestyle at the top of everyone’s mind.

On Monday, Joy put out a statement, alleging that the tape in question was filmed without consent. Furthermore, she said that she was being extorted and that the leaker demanded that she pay a lump sum to keep the video from being released.

After posting this statement, Joy quickly deleted it. This left many folks confused, with some wondering if Joy was asked to take the statement down for legal reasons. However, in the last 24 hours, Joy has been criticized for promoting her OnlyFans at an 85 percent discount. Furthermore, her latest Instagram post is raising some eyebrows.

As you will see below, Joy held a Q&A in which someone asked her, “Does size really matter?” Given the discourse surrounding Diddy in the leaked sex tape, the answering of this question feels especially intentional.

Daphne Joy Angers Social Media

Interestingly enough, Joy put her response behind an OnlyFans paywall. You have to subscribe to her page to get a full answer. Once again, this has led to widespread criticism. Some feel as though this is exploitative of the situation, especially when you consider yesterday’s heartfelt statement.

“wtf was the statement for if you just gonna keep moving like this??” one person wrote on Instagram. “Posting this after that statement is horrendous.”

Ultimately, these social media posts have left people feeling icky. Given the subject matter at hand, this should not be a surprise.

50 Cent has had it out for Diddy over the last few years, and with the latter’s recent legal troubles, Fif has been unrelenting on social media. That was especially true over the weekend as Diddy’s sex tape with Daphne Joy was leaked online. For those unfamiliar, Joy and 50 have a song together.

Upon the video’s release, people online immediately remarked about the size of Diddy’s manhood. Fif couldn’t resist getting involved in this conversation, as he clowned the music mogul.

“Free Diddy he has gone through enough being born with no Penis,” 50 Cent wrote.

Celina Powell saw 50 Cent’s post and decided to chime in with a burn of her own. Powell has claimed to have been with a plethora of famous artists over the years, 50 included. With that being said, she made the claim that Fif’s manhood is just as small as Diddy’s.

“Yours was no bigger my love,” Powell replied.

Celina Powell On 50 Cent

Celina Powell is someone with a bit of a dubious reputation, all things considered. She infamously lied about being pregnant with Offset’s child. Of course, she did so while Cardi B was pregnant herself. This led to lots of stress and widespread headlines about the couple’s relationship.

Powell understands how to get attention in today’s social media environment, and this situation is no different. The Diddy and Daphne Joy sex tape leak is one of the biggest stories in hip-hop right now.

The situation has been trending since Sunday morning, and it is showing absolutely no signs of slowing down. As for 50 Cent, it remains to be seeen whether or not he cares to refute Powell’s claim.

Sauce Walka BM Claims He Destroyed Maybach Drake Gifted Her  https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/997089-sauce-walka-bm-drake-maybach Tue, 02 Jun 2026 13:49:34 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=997089 Sauce Walka and Kylie Lossen's feud continues.

The post Sauce Walka BM Claims He Destroyed Maybach Drake Gifted Her  appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
Sauce Walka and his BM, Kiley Lossen, have been at odds for basically 48 hours, and somehow Drake’s involved. Although the ICEMAN rapper hasn’t actually chimed in publicly, Sauce Walka’s issues with him have been well documented, from the 10-year-old diss track “Wack 2 Wack” to recent podcast appearances. However, this time, the drama surrounds the mother of Sauce Walka’s child. The other day, Lossen shared audio of Sauce Walka allegedly threatening to shoot up Drake’s car. 

Sauce Walka has pushed back against claims that he’s jealous of Drake while providing screen recordings of text messages to prove his point. However, Kylie has shared more receipts that paint him as more than frustrated about her supposed relationship with Drake. 

In one point, she shared a photo of herself in front of a Maybach that Drake allegedly gifted her. “This maybach, the one HE BEAT UP BECAUSE DRAKE BOUGHT IT. HA PATHETIC,” she wrote.

Another alleged voice recording of Sauce Walka hears him going off as he threatens to embarrass Drake on the internet if he doesn’t keep his name out of his mouth. At this point, Drake himself hasn’t said or addressed anything regarding the matter, at least directly, but some fans have started pointing out how some lyrics from “JANICE STFU” might have been directed toward the Houston rapper.

Did Drake Throw Subs At Sauce Walka On ICEMAN?

Fans suspect that Drake’s bars on his latest #1 song, “JANICE STFU” might be directed at Sauce Walka, especially when he raps, “​​Trickin’ it off on her, payin’ her bill/That’s just how I do the sauce and the spill.” Considering that purchasing a Maybach for a woman is probably the highest level of tricking, it doesn’t seem too far off.

Rory & Mal Respond To Tasha K’s Report That Jay-Z Kicked Them Out Of The Roots Picnic https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/997083-rory-mal-tasha-k-report-jay-z-roots-picnic Tue, 02 Jun 2026 13:20:43 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=997083 Tasha K leveled an interesting report about Jay-Z and Rory & Mal, although, as it turns out, none of it was true.

The post Rory & Mal Respond To Tasha K’s Report That Jay-Z Kicked Them Out Of The Roots Picnic appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
Rory & Mal have been Team Drake over the past couple of years. Years ago, when they were on the Joe Budden Podcast, they were always Team Jay-Z. Of course, a lot of this had to do with Mal’s family ties and the New York connection.

That said, on their Netflix podcast, the two ride hard for Drake. In the eyes of some, this runs counter to Jay-Z, who dissed the Canadian megastar during his Roots Picnic freestyle.

On Monday, Tasha K found herself stirring the pot, claiming that Hov kicked Rory & Mal out of his Roots Picnic section. Tasha K then went on to claim that the podcast duo is signed to Roc Nation.

“WHOA! Just got word that Jayz allegedly KICKED Rory & Mall out of his section at the Roots Picnic! He allegedly told them I thought you both were Drake FANS! Then proceeded to kick them out! This is bad news considering they are Roc Nation Talent! Signed to him,” Tasha K wrote. “Everything is allegedly! Even my name is allegedly!”

As you can imagine, Rory & Mal got wind of this report and offered up a response.

Rory & Mal Respond

As Mal hilariously explains, he was at home watching Game 7 between the San Antonio Spurs and the Oklahoma City Thunder. Meanwhile, Rory mocked the notion that Jay would seek him out just to call him out for being a Drake fan.

Subsequently, Rory & Mal made it crystal clear that they are not signed to Roc Nation, nor have they ever been. They then said that they can understand why Tasha K is constantly dealing with lawsuits, given just how dubious her reporting is here.

So there you have it, Rory & Mal were not kicked out of the Roots Picnic. Whether or not Tasha K will respond to the refutation remains to be seen.

Daphne Joy is currently in the news following the leaked Diddy sex tape involving Joy and Sly Diggler. The tape leaked over the weekend and became a major talking point on social media, as fans were desperate to weigh in.

Since that time, Joy has confirmed that the woman on the tape is indeed her. However, she also alleged that the tape was filmed without her consent. She also says the leak was part of a larger extortion plot in which someone demanded her to pay money to stop the video from coming out.

In the aftermath of all of this, Joy is now facing some criticism. On X, DJ Vlad revealed that Joy is currently promoting her OnlyFans at an 85 percent discount. Some feel as though this is in poor taste, especially given the model’s recent statement on the matter.

For instance, Ben Baller responded to Vlad, saying, “This bih is so full of shit. For the 16+ years I’ve known her , her entire persona has been opportunity and marketing her sexuality to get ahead. She shouldn’t have even addressed it.”

As we mentioned previously, Joy posted and deleted a statement on Monday morning in relation to the sex tape leak. It was here where she alleged that the video was non-consensual. She also states that she was in love with Diddy at the time and was willing to do anything to satisfy him. However, she now realizes that the relationship was allegedly abusive and that she can never let herself be in that spot again.

At this time, Joy’s statement on the matter remains absent from her Instagram.
