In the aftermath of all of this, Charleston White made it clear that he believes Mob Ties is behind the situation. He blamed J Prince Jr, as well as his father, for putting an alleged hit on him. From there, he claimed that he would be going to the FBI to provide information on their alleged misdeeds.

On Wednesday night, Charleston White had a conversation with DJ Akademiks, where he continued his crusade against the Prince family. It was here that he made sure to diss J Prince Jr, claiming that he has no interest in talking to someone with no power. Instead, he only wants to deal with J Prince.

Charleston White Talks To Akademiks

Charleston White went on to allege that J Prince attempted to buy his documentary from him for $500,000. However, there was one very important stipulation in the deal. White had to apologize to J Prince publicly for all of the things he had said about him over the years. Needless to say, White declined.

When White finds someone he dislikes, he continues to make that dislike known for years. It is a strategy that has worked for the likes of 50 Cent. At the end of the day, White is a troll. A social media character who elicits controversy to gain more viewers. This is simply part of that strategy.

Whether or not this strategy is sustainable for him over the long term, still very much remains to be seen.

The allegations concerning this case are incredibly disturbing. Rivas’ body was found in D4vd’s Tesla. It has been decomposing for quite some time, which made it difficult for coroners to conduct an autopsy. Since that time, the prosecution has been building its case, and this week, they have presented their alleged evidence.

On Wednesday, some extremely disturbing details were presented to the public. For instance, it was stated that D4vd allegedly placed 12 air fresheners in his vehicle. These were found after the discovery of Rivas’ body, according to ABC. It is said that this was done to mask the smell of the body.

D4vd Allegations Presented In Court

It is an act straight out of the movie Se7en. Overall, this is a highly disturbing allegation, and that’s not all. It was also alleged that D4vd used a chainsaw on Rivas’ body following the murder. Rivas’ parents were reportedly upset upon finding out this information. They were in shock when photos of her body were shown to the court.

This remains the most high-profile case in the music industry right now. It has sparked major public interest, even from those who are unaware of who D4vd is or was.

Ultimately, a young girl has died, and that is truly tragic. Soon, the judge will be offering a recommendation on whether or not this goes to trial. Until then, stay tuned to HNHH for updates.

Going into this matchup, there have been some interesting debates about who is actually going to win. Most believe that The Game is going to win. After all, he has been around longer and has multiple classic albums under his belt.

However, others think YG will win this one. After all, Verzuz is all about crowd reaction. Just look at Rick Ross and French Montana. Ross is the better artist, but French won thanks to his song selection and vast array of hits. That said, YG could surprise some people with a performance for the ages. No matter what, the score is probably going to be tight.

YG Takes On The Game

For those of you at home who are interested in watching the event, you will be able to do so tonight as of 9:30 PM EST or 6:30 PM PST. The show will be visible on Apple Music, as well as Complex, where you will also be able to vote on which artist you think is winning each round. Verzuz channels will also have the show available to watch.

The last Verzuz was between B2K and Pretty Ricky, which turned out to be a complete blowout. Pretty Ricky won every single round, and from a pure catalog vs catalog perspective, the show was definitely a disappointment.

YG and The Game, on the other hand, promise to be a much better matchup. This is going to be a wild card. You can’t predict who wins. You’ll just have to wait and see.

The shoe uses a crackled upper with a brown finish. Golden tones peek through that textured surface throughout the design. Black panels and trim help sharpen the shoe’s overall silhouette.

Red and black elephant print covers both the toe and heel overlays. An aged tan midsole adds to the shoe’s rougher, worn-in appearance. Small red details show up on the tongue, stitching, and inner lining.

Inside, the insoles read “Checked It Twice” in gothic-style lettering. That phrase nods to the familiar Christmas lyric about Santa’s naughty list. Nike Air branding returns to the heel tabs in raised embroidery.

A green section on the outsole adds one subtle nod to the holidays. This shoe pairs with a brighter “Santa” colorway made for kids. Together, the two releases play off opposite sides of Santa’s list. It also follows in the footsteps of 2025’s “Krampus” Dunk release. That shoe leaned into a similarly darker holiday theme last year.

Jordan Brand continues expanding its holiday lineup each year with unique concepts. This release adds another unconventional option to that growing collection.

Air Jordan 3 OG “Not Nice”

The “Not Nice” pulls its main visual impact from the cracked leather upper. That texture gives the shoe a burnt, weathered look throughout. Lighter golden tones show through the cracks for added depth. Black suede covers the middle eyestays and collar for contrast.

Red trim outlines the embroidered Jumpman logo on the tongue. The elephant print keeps its usual placement but swaps colors for red and black. That change makes the pattern stand out more against the darker base.

A black and gum midsole ties the lower half together visually. The outsole stays semi-translucent, with a small green accent near the toe. Some have connected the design to Nike’s early Air Jordan holiday campaigns. Whether intentional or not, the burnt look fits the shoe’s overall theme well.

He’s the founder of PDF Channel, a label built around bold streetwear and Italian craftsmanship. The garment features a colorful, patchwork-style print covering nearly the entire back.

A circular crest sits prominently between the shoulders. It reads “NOCTA MANOR MMXXVI,” marking the year using Roman numerals. That detail ties the piece directly to this year’s retreat location. Formichetti confirmed the item was handmade in Como, Italy. That region is known worldwide for its silk production.

This marks the second NOCTA Manor experience Drake has hosted with Nike. The first took place outside London back in 2025. This year’s retreat brought guests to a private estate in New Jersey. Many attendees were reportedly already in town for the World Cup Final.

Branded pieces like this have become a signature part of the Manor experience. Formichetti previously worked with artists including Tyga and Sfera Ebbasta. His brand mixes oversized shapes with a distinctly Italian production process. This latest piece adds another custom item to Drake’s growing NOCTA wardrobe.

Drake’s Silk NOCTA Jacket

The piece uses a busy, patchwork-inspired print across its entire surface. Multiple patterns and colors overlap without any single motif dominating the design. That layered look echoes the eclectic style Formichetti has built his label around.

An interior tag reportedly confirms the fabric as one hundred percent Como silk. That detail reinforces the garment’s handmade, made-in-Italy quality.

The back crest anchors the design, giving it a clear tie to NOCTA Manor. Similar branded pieces have appeared at past Manor events in different forms. This one stands out due to its detailed embroidery and custom silk material.

Since the piece is one-of-one, it likely won’t see any public release. Still, it adds to the visual identity building around NOCTA Manor overall. Each new piece seems to expand that identity a little further.

Although Cardi didn’t identify anyone by name, the comments come as rumors continue to link her to goalkeeper Maduka Okoye. Neither has publicly addressed speculation about a relationship, but the chatter has fueled renewed interest in the rapper’s dating life following her split from Offset.

There’s Still Speculation Regarding The Last Relationship

Rather than distancing herself from the conversation, Cardi leaned into her trademark honesty. She acknowledged she could make better decisions when it comes to choosing partners but made it clear she isn’t interested in staying single simply to avoid criticism.

“The p*ssy needs some love too,” she said with a laugh. “She can’t stay single forever.” Yet, there is still speculation surrounding the rapper’s relationship with football player Stefon Diggs. The two welcomed a child in the Fall of 2025, but it seems their romance may have fizzled out. With allegations of infidelity and a looming lawsuit hovering over Diggs, the two have kept their status private, with many believing they’ve officially called it quits.
