“It’s ironic. It’s funny that the only people that will hang out with Jay now are his ex-enemies,” he remarked. “Isn’t that weird? But none of his friends. Does that make sense to you? Now, I’m dancing on stage with my enemies, with our nemesis, with our opps, and none of your friends are on stage with you? Except Memphis Bleek? That doesn’t seem odd to you? […] You guys are dumb, man… I’ma keep laughing at y’all.”

Ironically, Dash said rap beef “wasn’t real” and downplayed its effect, going onto criticize Jay-Z’s freestyle.

Of course, there are some “real friends” fans can point to from the Yankee Stadium shows, namely Beyoncé and their daughter Blue Ivy Carter. But what Dame Dash referred to seemed to be more about the folks who have always been in his corner from day one, of which Bleek was the only one.

Still, bringing out Jaz-O, Nas, Joe, Jada, and others despite either previous grievances or not as long of a history together proved to be a compelling move for most fans out there.

Dame Dash Trashes Jay-Z

Dame Dash’s other recent disses towards Jay-Z include the claim that he’s nowhere near the same level as Kanye West. That’s another legend selling out stadium shows these days, and Ye actually showed love to Hov recently.

This also follows Dame Dash’s bizarre AI video at Jay-Z’s concert, which featured him getting on stage and then getting arrested by law enforcement for child support payments. Whoever Jay’s “real friends” are these days, Dame will not show up anywhere near that list for seemingly the rest of time.

At around the 23:50-minute mark of the YouTube video below, Ross and Deon started to talk about these beefs, with the former saying 50 can’t dress and that they are “two different cloths.” But he did say he wants to see everyone win, which led the actor to ask about the Drizzy conflict and why they won’t drop another song again.

For the most part, they just laughed at the prospect. But Rick Ross had other Drake reflections, which were similar to what he told The Joe Budden Podcast. “It was fun, it ain’t nothing to regret at all,” he remarked.

“You know that n***a 50 Cent can’t trust ’em,” Rick remarked. “What you think about that n***a baby mama?” he asked Cole, referring to Daphne Joy. Cole said he met her, and Ross said he did too, which led them to laugh uncontrollably.

Rick Ross On The Joe Budden Podcast

While some social media interpretations claim this suggests they were both romantically involved with Joy, there’s nothing explicitly confirming this in the clip. But some fans will still run with that, which has already led to a lot of debate.

Rick Ross’ recent Joe Budden Podcast appearance also elaborated on some of this Drake conversation. He said nothing about their dynamic is fake, whether their past friendship or their current conflict.

As for the G-Unit mogul, Ross’ beef with him has lasted a long time, and will probably not end anytime soon. That’s especially the case if they continue to bring up their romantic partners. It’s unclear why Daphne Joy came up or if this was a dig at OVO fan DJ Akademiks considering the context of the moment. But in any case, these feuds continue to spiral out whether the artists can control them or not.

Quotable Lyrics from First Day Out

I got chops in the crib, I ain’t dying at home,
They don’t like when I get in my zone,
I’m trying to gеt right, they keep saying I’m wrong,
Stop playing, girl, watch your tone

As caught by TMZ, the influencer and Twitch streamer recalled an alleged interaction between her and the singer. She allegedly confronted him about Rivas and demanded proof that she was of legal age, insinuating she knew of their alleged relationship.

“I’m like, ‘Hey, this girl is saying that you’re f***ing with a f***ing 13-year-old. You need to explain yourself,'” Collins alleged. “He was like, ‘Dude, that’s not even true. She’s, like, 19.’ I was like, ‘No, she’s not. She said she’s 13. Show me proof.’ And you know what? He showed me proof.”

She did not specify what the proof entailed. D4vd has pleaded not guilty to the charges against him.

“I was like, ‘Okay, I’ma back off. I feel like I’m harassing my friend. Obviously, now that’s a little too much,'” Aysia Collins continued. “Obviously, there was more conversation than that. I can’t get into every single detail for legal reasons. But I didn’t just go, ‘Hey, is your friend 13?’ And he went, ‘No.’ And I was like, ‘Oh, okay. La la la la la…’ I wasn’t being stupid. I was like, ‘No, show me proof, I need to see actual evidence. Because I think you’re f***ing with a minor.’

D4vd’s Murder Case

“Obviously, when my friend tells me, ‘No, I’m not’ [and] shows me proof that he is not, and I harass him more,” she went on. “He’s like, ‘Dude, chill the f**k out.’ Manipulated the f**k out of me, to be honest. I was like, ‘Okay, honestly, I’m tripping, I’ma lay off.’ […] The sad thing about the Internet is I could give you guys all the information in the world [and] y’all still will not believe me.”

Collins also spoke about explaining a screenshot. This may refer to her previous criticisms of the singer from June, in which she called him a “psycopath” that “lied and betrayed everyone around him.” Other folks in D4vd’s orbit have condemned him or demanded justice for Celeste Rivas. But the court must still rule on this matter in order for the truth to emerge.

TMZ caught up with him yesterday (Friday, July 17) and asked him about the ordeal. They also asked about the folks supporting Stefon Diggs, as the stylist received criticism from Cardi B, the mother of Diggs’ child, about the accusations.

“Differences of opinion, refusal to tell the truth, an obligation to myself and to children that bear my name,” he explained regarding his issues with Stefon. “A responsibility that I hold very near and dear to my heart. So I got to walk this s**t down. Justice for CB. Dad first.”

The interviewer asked for a response to Diggs’ claims that Chris Blake Griffith is lying. “I don’t know why liars lie,” he expressed. “But if a liar told me I was lying, I wouldn’t believe him.” Then, Griffith addressed Cardi’s social media rebuttals.

“A liar told her I was lying and she believed it,” he answered. “Unfortunately. In reality, how many kids were born last year with the last name Diggs? A plethora? He can’t be telling all the truth. I don’t think she would’ve signed up for that.”

“I tried to give him a pass a couple of years ago, thinking that it was something that he would apologize for and move on past,” Chris Blake continued. “He kind of gave me his a** to kiss. Which is why we’re operating in the realm of litigation that exists currently. […] In the regard of court, I feel validated. I feel vindicated. I feel like the truth is gon’ shine bright. For what they did to me. Especially here in L.A., May 29 at my residence.

“When I say somebody got to pay, I ain’t talking financial,” he concluded. “Justice really got to be executed within full form. So somebody got to be held responsible. It’s not a dollar amount that can change my mind. If it’s up to me, this case is trial before a judge and jury. And I can’t wait for that day… I’m not worried about no money. I never demanded a dollar amount, I’m not demanding a dollar. Do it look like I’m worried about money?”

We will see what comes of this case once the court decides how they will handle it.

Via Instagram, Drizzy shared his $1.5 million bet on Argentina taking the trophy home. Also, he shared a news article about his previously unsuccessful bet on the country in their last World Cup run. They actually won, but the 6ix God lost his bet on a technicality regarding regulation time. He made a similar bet this time around, so even an Argentine victory in extra time or a penalty shootout could result in his loss.

“What’s that saying??? Better luck next time…say less @stake,” the Toronto superstar captioned his post.

Drake’s Canada lost in the World Cup despite him trying to pull a “reverse curse” by betting a dollar on Morocco’s victory, which they secured. This time around, he wants to go all in and potentially earn a $5.175 million payout if he succeeds.

Drake’s Bet On Argentina

As for the most recent big bet before this, the “Drake curse” struck again. It refers to the memed-out notion that any athlete or team he supports will end up losing, although there are plenty of examples that debunk this.

But that wasn’t the case for Conor McGregor’s return to the UFC octagon against Max Holloway. McGregor lost via TKO due to an injury, which ruined the OVO mogul’s $1 million bet.

“You got to tell Drake I want my chips and the dip,” Holloway joked after his victory. If Spain comes out on top, expect some cheeky response as well.

Still, Drake’s gambling luck is probably better than most, something his deep pockets indicate. He recently won $30 million after finally securing a “max win” on Stake, which made him celebrate like he just got his favorite toy for the holidays.

Will Argentina emerge victorious? After this bet, the memes say no. But their FIFA World Cup run may be telling a different story. We’ll see in just a day whether or not the “curse” will be “broken.”

Their pair flipped the design of the classic “Concord” colorway. The traditional black patent mudguard was swapped for crisp white leather. Meanwhile, the rest of the upper stayed black with a molded leather finish. The sole kept the icy, translucent look Jordan 11s are known for.

This shoe connects to a long-running story in sneaker culture. Boyz II Men have long been credited with first wearing the Concord 11 publicly. Fans often point to the 1996 Grammy Awards as that moment. No actual photos or footage confirm that story ever happened.

Still, the legend has stuck around sneaker circles for decades. This new PE gives the group an official tie to the shoe. The performance also fit into a bigger night for Philadelphia talent. Patti LaBelle sang the national anthem earlier in the evening.

There’s no word yet on whether this shoe will release publicly. For now, it remains a one-of-one moment for the group. It adds a new chapter to their connection with the Air Jordan 11.

Boyz II Men Air Jordan 11 PE

The Boyz II Men pair reworks the Concord 11’s original color layout. Instead of black patent leather, the mudguard now uses white leather instead.

The rest of the shoe keeps a smooth, molded black finish throughout. That swap flips the shoe’s usual look while keeping its identity recognizable.

The icy outsole mixes clear and blue tones, matching past Jordan 11 releases. This detail ties the design back to the sneaker’s most recognizable feature. The shoe arrives as Jordan Brand plans a big year for the 11.

3 separate versions are expected as part of Space Jam’s 30th anniversary. That timing makes this PE feel especially relevant right now. Whether or not it ever releases, the shoe adds to sneaker folklore. It formalizes a connection fans have talked about for years.

The man is reportedly a 63-year-old motorist who drove his car “at a high rate of speed up the driveway,” per police reports. Officers claim he caused “significant damage” and did not brake when he approached the gate. They said they impounded the car, arrested the man, and took him to Stoney Brook Hospital for his pain.

In addition, detective and sergeant Jennifer Dunn reportedly told Page Six the man seemed to be “confused at the scene and after the arrest. He did not make any threats or mention names of the residents. It could just be chance he picked that house if he was having a medical issue.” Police reportedly filled out a misdemeanor criminal trespass and felony criminal mischief affidavit.

At press time, it does not seem like the man wished harm on the celebrity couple. Also, it hasn’t been confirmed if they were at their $26 million Hamptons home at the time of the incident. The man reportedly approached another home in the area before the crash and asked for the owner by name. He learned she didn’t live there, and the actual home owner told police he seemed “confused.”

Dunn also claimed there were “no weapons found, no notes found, no direct threats made and no direct mention of residents of the house. So we are not sure he even knew who lived in that house at this point.”

Police reported no injuries regarding this incident. The East Hampton Star was reportedly the first to report the news.

Elsewhere, Jay-Z and Beyoncé are dealing with haters and even sparking new Hov album rumors as a result of their moves. We will see if further police investigation leads to anything regarding this crash, potential motives, causes, and more. It’s been a very hectic time for them, but that’s how the superstar life can be sometimes.
