During a recent livestream, Ak began piecing together the alleged ties between Roc Nation and the lawsuits against Drake and Stake through a company that provided the plaintiffs a supposed forgivable loan. He explained that Insight Partners, Fanatics, and Roc Nation have some sort of dealings with a company called Poleg LLC, the company providing the forgivable loans to the plaintiffs suing Drake and Stake.

Akademiks Lawsuit Dismissed

What Akademiks evidently had an issue with is some of the reporting surrounding these lawsuits, especially since they named himself in it alongside Adin Ross. But since they’re not dismissed, Ak has made it clear that the reporting never received a proper follow-up.

“Just reposting this on the timeline if yall missed my stream. Loren lorosa mark Lamont hill .. don’t let me out journalist yall… I expect. Yall to do ur due diligence … or not. Rob Markman u still a journalist or just a Drake hater?” he captioned a clip from his recent stream.  

Akademiks ultimately argued that these claims lacked merit in court and that’s why they got tossed. However, his issue seems to be the lack of fair reporting from the same people who helped break the stories in the first place.

We will keep you on any further updates on matter, including any further responses from Akademiks, Mark Lamony Hill, Loren Larosa, or Rob Markman. Check out the clip above and share your thoughts in the comments below.

It has been a difficult saga for fans to watch unfold. That said, Williams has still been able to spend time with those closest to her. For instance, Charlamagne Tha God revealed on The Breakfast Club that last year, he and Loren LoRosa had a private dinner with the former television host.

LoRosa revealed that Williams offered a heartbreaking admission during the conversation. Simply put, Williams believes the last few years of her life have been karma for the way she spoke about people on her shows.

“She feels like everything she’s going through right now is God getting her back for all of the things that she said, you know, about people,” LoRosa explained.

Wendy Williams’ Candid Admission

Charlamagne Tha God was quick to say that he resonated with what Williams was talking about. “That shit that Wendy Williams said to us at dinner is exactly where my energy was,” he explained.

The Breakfast Club host admitted that he used to do things for “clicks and views,” which always left him feeling exceptionally empty. It is an interesting admission, and one that makes sense given how Charlamagne has pivoted in recent years. Now, he is a more brand-friendly individual who even does work on The Daily Show.

At this time, Wendy Williams’ current predicament remains under wraps as her private life has become more obscured as time goes on. Only time will tell whether or not she decides to go public for her supporters.

It has been stated that Davis was not the man who fired the weapon. That said, Davis has bragged about his alleged involvement in the murder during numerous interviews. Furthermore, his recent memoir will be used as evidence, which does not bode well for the 64-year-old.

Since his arrest in 2023, Keefe D has denied any involvement in the murder. If convicted, he faces life in prison. He would effectively spend the rest of his life behind bars.

Today, a livestream is being broadcast online, in which you can watch opening statements. In fact, below, you will be able to find the aforementioned livestream, courtesy of TMZ.

Keefe D Trial Livestream

This is going to be one of the biggest hip-hop trials in quite some time. Of course, the murder of Tupac Shakur has been a mystery that hip-hop fans have contemplated for decades. Next month will mark the 30th anniversary of the rapper’s death, and by then, fans will potentially have some answers by the end of this trial.

With this trial being televised online, there is no doubt that there is going to be quite a bit of public interest. It is a true crime case that has lacked closure for Tupac’s family. Perhaps by the end of all of this, that closure will have materialized.

Stay tuned to HNHH for updates on this trial.

Nevaeh pulled a knife on Blueface, and eventually the entire situation was diffused. However, later that evening, Blueface left Nevaeh so that he could go to the club with Chrisean. As it turns out, this may have been a mistake, as chaos immediately ensued.

According to a video posted to social media, Blueface and his crew allegedly got into some sort of shootout. Seven shots were fired, and police eventually made their way to the scene. At this time, it is unclear whether or not arrests were made. Reports from No Jumper suggest 100 people were involved in the scuffle, and there were no victims spotted at the scene.

In the midst of all of this, Chrisean Rock went viral for a completely separate reason during the exact same outing. As you can see below, Rock squared up with a woman in the street and started beating her up.

Blueface was standing shirtless next to her and was egging the fight on. It was a bizarre scene, and an example of the kind of debauchery the two were getting up to last night.

AllStar Jr. was eventually arrested on a federal firearm possession charge. Now, he faces 15 years in prison, while Ben10 continues to attempt to recover from his injuries.

However, during an interview with SayCheeseTV, Charleston White decided to mock the Baton Rouge artist. White even said that God was right to take Ben10’s legs away, as he was using them for bad deeds.

“Ben10, the best thing God could have did for him was take his legs,” White said. “He playing with them legs like he gangster. He ain’t no motherfucking gangster.”

White continued to mock Ben10. For instance, he pointed out how the artist can’t rush to the bathroom anymore. He also said that God will have to continue intervening for any of this to change.

“When you got to pee, you can’t rush to the bathroom,” White said before adding, “See, God either got to kill him, paralyze them or [maim] them for this new group to change.”

These comments from White have been going viral over the past couple of days, and it is easy to see why. It is yet another case of the commentator attempting to wish ill on people. It’s something that he has done on numerous occasions, and it’s clear that nothing is off limits, including paralysis.

White is also currently in a feud with the Prince family, following an alleged shooting in Houston.

Instead, Lena has maintained that there is a case of stolen identity at play. In fact, Lena’s theory is that a man was catfished by someone claiming to be her. Subsequently, this sparked the mystery person to launch divorce filings and even restraining orders.

According to TMZ, Lena The Plug and Adam22 had to appear in court recently over Zoom due to this ordeal. Lena told the judge that the restraining order was not filed by her, and that she wants it rescinded. In the end, the judge granted her wish.

Adam22 & Lena The Plug In Court

This has been an interesting time for Adam22 and Lena The Plug outside of this latest situation. Of course, Lena was a guest on the Drake 20v1, which went down last weekend, and ignited all sorts of controversy.

Lena The Plug ended up being a finalist on the show, as Drake selected her as one of the runners-up. Pinkchyu ended up taking the win. However, Lena’s appearance on the show did spark some internet jokes. After all, she did fling off her wedding ring while running to hug the rapper. Furthermore, she revealed that Adam22 had given her a physical hall pass to sleep with Drake.

All this to say, the two are not getting a divorce, at least not anytime soon. As for this alleged stalker, their identity is still very much unknown.

Apparently, the session that produced their politically-charged hit record was part of a bigger project that the two were working on. Blacc Sam told Bootleg Kev that there’s more unreleased music from Nipsey Hussle that’s tucked away and set to drop in the future. As All Hip-Hop pointed out, Blacc Sam also confirmed that a joint project with YG could be in the itinerary.

“I think that ‘F**k Donald Trump’ came from those sessions, from one of those sessions and they just ended up leaking it,” Blacc Sam explained. “I know there probably are some verses, a lot of the team and a lot of [their] guys sent over everything when we did a blitz to see what was out.”

Nipsey Hussle Documentary Is On The Way

Outside of the YG project, Blacc Sam revealed that they are strategically planning the release of new music for the upcoming documentary. 

“For us, the soundtrack to the documentary is where dope records that are close to being complete or don’t fully have a project or haven’t landed on a project and are kind of timestamped to where you could tell Hussle was younger here, Hussle older here. In my eyes, they’re going to go for the soundtrack for the doc because we can, alright, this is episode one is when he was earlier. This record was recorded there,” he explained. 

We will keep you posted on any further updates on new Nipsey Hussle music and the potential YG collaboration project.

Recently, Akademiks even held a debate with Charlamagne Tha God. While many would agree that Charlamagne won the debate, there are still some questions about what is going on at Roc Nation. Some believe they are trying to sabotage artists like Drake, while others believe these are just conspiracy theories.

Last week, Akademiks claimed to have been swatted while speaking on Desiree Perez’s stalker. This became a topic on Joe Budden’s podcast this weekend, and as you will hear, he had some praise for Akademiks.

Joe acknowledges that Ak isn’t scared to speak on Roc Nation, and that it is admirable. However, Budden did offer a caveat for why he will not be joining Akademiks in that battle.

Joe Budden Salutes Akademiks

“I don’t like creating enemies with people who have the resources to make my life a living hell every day for the rest of my life,” Akademiks explained.

DJ Akademiks has never shied away from a feud. If he feels as though he has been slighted, he is going to pursue that avenue of attack. That said, sometimes it delves into outright obsession and conspiracy theory.

This week, we imagine Akademiks will continue to stream, and it is likely that Roc Nation will continue to be a topic. Whether or not he decides to tone down the rhetoric, is something that still remains to be seen.

This has ultimately led to some feeling as though he is selling out the black community. In fact, over the weekend, the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) set their sights on Smith. They awarded Stephen A. with the “Thumbs Down” award for the way he has conducted himself over the last year.

Just last year, the NABJ invited Smith and First Take to their stage. This year, the tone was much different as Smith continues his right-wing descent. That said, Smith was made aware of the award, and he immediately jumped into his mob boss routine, threatening the NABJ with a rant that will likely take place either today or tomorrow.

Stephen A. Smith Calls Out The NABJ

“This is the epitome of Christmas arriving early,” Smith wrote. “The @NABJ wants to call folks out, fine! You had your turn, now mine is coming. And make no mistake…..,I’m coming. Let’s see who REALLY deserves a Thumbs Down award when it comes to the Black Community, after I say my peace! Remember @NABJ, you asked for it. I’ve shut my mouth for years. Now y’all started something.”

Smith’s mob boss routine has become his schtick as of late. Every time he is criticized, he acts as though the sky is falling. It is as if some great injustice has been imposed upon him.

While his supporters love this tactic, there is no denying that the average person can see through it.
