Ari Fletcher is someone who has been subjected to a lot of hate over the years. When you are an influencer with a famous partner, people are going to talk crazy to you. It’s a sad reality of those in the business.

There are some content creators who love to talk smack more than others. One of them is Cuffem, a Twitch streamer who came up thanks to his association with Adin Ross. He is known for being a troll, and he doesn’t take any prisoners in his commentary.

For instance, he once said that Ari Fletcher was only a popular livestreamer because of her body. These are comments that Fletcher was clearly made privy to, as she ended up pressing Cuffem while out at an event.

In the video below, Cuffem can be seen backstage when MoneyBagg Yo and Ari Fletcher walk by him. At first, things are cordial between him and MoneyBagg Yo. That is until Fletcher recognizes him and tells him what she really thinks. She then whispers something to the rapper, who simply says, “What did you say?”

Cuffem Regrets His Decision

The entire confrontation didn’t last particularly long. In the end, Fletcher and MoneyBagg Yo went along their way, while Cuffem was left to reflect on the way he has spoken about people over the years.

If you are someone who watches livestreamers, you know that all too often, they talk crazy without any fear of consequences. In this instance, things could have gone a lot worse.

One has to wonder if streamers like Cuffem will consider this in the future. However, that would mean impacting their bottom lines.

Kevin Gates Must Fork Over $1M From Music Catalog Sales To Dreka Gates https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/1014062-kevin-gates-dreka-1-million-music-catalog-split Thu, 22 Oct 2026 17:46:06 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=1014062 Kevin Gates will have to give Dreka a significant portion of the proceeds from his music catalogue sales.

Most people thought that Kevin Gates and Dreka would be together forever but over the years, we’ve seen the two separate and pursue separate relationships. Of course, Gates made plenty of headlines in recent times after getting married to Brittany Renner in 2025, though that relationship was incredibly short-lived.

However, it appears that Kevin Gates is still dealing with his separation from Dreka Gates in court. According to TMZ, a judge ordered him to fork over a cut of the proceeds from his music sales to Dreka Gates. Bread Winner Alumni’s CFO Robert Bracy will run the Morgan Stanley account into which all the money needs to be deposited, while William Duerksen, a public accountant, has authorization for the account.

Dreka will get a huge chunk of money from this, $929,341.50, to be exact, for child support and spousal support. Additionally, she’s to receive another $150K. For attorney fees, her lawyers will get $125K, while her accountant receives $100K, and another $103K will be provided to a third-party mediation service.  

Meanwhile, Kevin will receive $538,798 upfront and $225,000 each month, beginning in October.

Kevin Gates & Dreka Separation

The former couple has been at odds over the past few years, and the fallout has spilled into the public eye. Kevin once alleged that Dreka stole money from him during their marriage, though her attorney referred to the claims as “completely false and fabricated.” She also accused Kevin of failing to support her and their children financially since 2021. Dreka asked for $70K in child support per month around that time.

We will keep you posted on any further updates surrounding Kevin Gates and Dreka. Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

Dame Dash’s Life Rights Have Been Auctioned Off For $500K https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/1014055-dame-dash-life-rights-sold Thu, 22 Oct 2026 17:12:48 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=1014055 Everlasting Films, LLC have been eyeing the life rights to Dame Dash's story for a while.

In the midst of Dame Dash’s bankruptcy, there seems to be a buyer for his life rights. According to Complex, the auctioning of his life rights has been completed. The person willing to purchase it is ready to pay upwards of $550K, though the money will go directly to Dame Dash’s creditors. 

A Florida court served a notice to the trustee in charge of Dame’s bankruptcy, stating that the process was complete. Everlasting Films, LLC scored big as they claimed the exclusivity to worldwide rights to Dame’s life story. This also includes “100 hours of video content, photographs, and memorabilia,” and the rights to “an unreleased, in-development documentary/film project.”

Everlasting Films, LLC has been eyeing Dame Dash’s life rights for a minute, previously making a $37K bid early on in the process. However, if their deal ultimately falls through, there’s another person, Doug Peters, who also made a bid for upwards of $500K.

Dame Dash Life Rights Have Been Auctioned

In August, Traci K. Stevenson, the trustee of Dame Dash’s bankruptcy, asked the court for permission to sell Dame’s life rights so the money could go to creditors. Even though Dame didn’t list his life rights as an asset when he filed for bankruptcy, Traci said it has “evident value in light of the Debtor’s public profile and his historical association with Roc-A-Fella Records and [Jay-Z].”

“[T]he monetization of an individual’s name, image, and likeness has become a well-established and actively regulated commercial market,” Stevenson wrote. “That market confirms that rights of this character — a person’s name, image, likeness, persona, and life narrative — are recognized as commercially valuable, transferable property, further supporting the Trustee’s business judgment that the Property is a marketable Estate asset appropriate for sale.”

Don C is opening up his personal closet, and sneakerheads should pay attention. The Just Don founder is selling 14 pieces from his collection exclusively through StockX Listings.

The sale is the second episode of StockX’s LISTED series, which started with an episode featuring former NBA player P.J. Tucker. Asking prices range from $600 to $50,000.

The biggest headline is a Kanye West x Nike Air 180. It was made around the time of The College Dropout and never released to the public.

Don C also included a one-of-one Louis Vuitton Christopher Backpack that he designed himself. Two Travis Scott x Air Jordan 4 samples are in the mix, along with the Carhartt x Eminem x Air Jordan 4.

There is a lot of luxury as well. Highlights include an NBA x Louis Vuitton leather jacket sample, Ye’s Louis Vuitton Jasper in white, and several Louis Vuitton x Supreme bags.

The sneaker side also has a Nike LeBron 9 Elite sample in volt, plus KAWS x Air Jordan 4s in grey and black. A Gucci x adidas shoulder bag rounds out the list.

Overall, it is a very mixed lineup. It covers sneakers, bags, and clothing, and it shows how Don C has been part of streetwear and luxury for a long time.

Don C Sells Personal Collection StockX

Don C has been tied to this world since the beginning. He founded Just Don in 2011, and he also helped run RSVP Gallery with Virgil Abloh.

He has also been a longtime member of Kanye West’s inner circle, which explains why Ye pieces are in the sale.

Used sneaker sales are relatively new for StockX. The company launched StockX Listings earlier this year so people could buy and sell used sneakers and apparel, and this is a big showcase for that feature.

Overall for collectors, a sale like this is rare. Samples and one-of-ones almost never reach the open market, so it could set some new price marks.

Styles P is set to drop Ghost Of The Past, Present and Future Vol. 1, and he is bringing the heat with his recent run of freestyles. Recently, he came through with “The Drop.” It is appropriately named after the show from which the beat originates. The original song is called “Rydah” and Styles P certainly does it justice. From his flows to the cadence to the bars themselves, everything here is clicking. The rapper clearly wants people to know he’s dropping heat soon. We can’t wait to hear even more.

Kanye Is Reportedly Bringing Yeezy Back To The Fashion Runway https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/1014019-kanye-west-plans-yeezy-fashion-show-streetwear-news Thu, 22 Oct 2026 15:31:45 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=1014019 Ye is reportedly planning a Yeezy runway show at the brand's new Los Angeles flagship store, according to a new report from Puck.

Yeezy may be heading back to the runway. According to a new report, Ye is planning a fashion show in Los Angeles.

Puck reports that the show would take place at Yeezy’s new flagship store, on the corner of Beverly Boulevard and Kingsley Drive. The report cites a source with direct knowledge.

There is no date yet, and Yeezy has not confirmed anything. So basically it means this is still a rumor for now.

The setting would be a big change from recent years. Ye has mostly kept his fashion projects quiet, and his last big runway moment was Yeezy Season 9 in Paris in 2022. Seven months later, he held a very low-key Season 10 show in Los Angeles that barely showed any clothes.

It was also reported in August that Yeezy plans to launch a new sneaker for the holiday season, with a pretty hefty price of $800. A runway show could be the perfect place to show it off.

Yeezy is also active again at retail. Products are available on its website, and JD Sports has been selling Yeezy pieces since August. A show at the flagship would also show how much the brand has changed since leaving Adidas.

Kanye West Plans Yeezy Fashion Show

Yeezy has a long runway history. The brand’s first show was Yeezy Season 2 in 2015, and the later seasons became some of the biggest events in fashion.

Some of those shows were huge productions. Others were small and strange, which made them even more talked about. It is a very Ye move to choose his own store as the venue. It gives him full control over the setting and the guest list.

We have seen a lot of Yeezy news lately. An unreleased YZY AB-01 appeared on Ye’s feet last weekend, the Yeezy 800 sneaker is expected in December, and the Yeezy 800 High Tactical Boot is still waiting on a date.

If the runway show happens, it could be a big moment for the brand. We will keep watching for more details.

50 Cent Calls Robert Williams III’s Assault Suspect “Innocent”

According to police, Robert Williams III was on a corner speaking to a woman when Don Roberts III hopped out of his vehicle and immediately began pressing him. Apparently, this woman had a relationship with Don in the past. 

Robert Williams III told police that Don held a handgun in his hand and pointed it towards him, saying, “I don’t care who your daddy is, I’ll kill you.” Don then allegedly struck Roberts with the gun.

Shortly after the news went viral, 50 Cent immediately chimed in, making light of Ross’ past as a correctional officer and plugging his own movie, Street Fighter.

“I got him he will be out tomorrow I’m sending @drewfindling,” 50 wrote. “This is a big misunderstanding that can easily be resolved. This was a street fight, I mean STREET FIGHTER is in theaters! LOL.”

Though Ross himself hasn’t chimed in, Roberts Williams III’s mother, Tia Kemp, called out 50 Cent for egging on the situation, sparking a back-and-forth on social media. Check out the post above and sound off with your thoughts in the comments below.

The post DJ Akademiks Suggests LeBron & Savannah James Were Startled To See Him At Knicks Game appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
DJ Akademiks has been flaunting his recent trip to Madison Square Garden, and it has led to a plethora of eye-opening claims. It all started with him taunting Meek Mill and Tylil, who were not present at the game.

Subsequently, Akademiks found himself alleging that a Jay-Z affiliate was heckling him during the New York Knicks and Philadelphia 76ers game. He says the 60-year-old white man was an employee of Roc Nation who makes jewelry for Jay-Z. It is a claim that has yet to be verified.

In the very same stream, DJ Akademiks continued to make some head-turning claims. For instance, he said that when LeBron James saw him in the crowd, he looked startled. He also said that LeBron refused to look in his direction for the rest of the game.

DJ Akademiks On Knicks Experience

Subsequently, he says he made eye contact with Savannah James, who also didn’t look pleased to see him. However, Ak maintains that he believes Savannah actually has a lot of respect for him.

If you’re wondering why LeBron might not like Akademiks, it’s because of Ak’s associations with Drake. When Kendrick Lamar was beefing with Drake, LeBron took Lamar’s side. He showed up at the Pop Out, and was dancing to “Not Like Us.” Given LeBron’s history with Drake, this was seen as a massive betrayal, and Akademiks stated as such.

Whether or not LeBron actually noticed Akademiks is anyone’s guess. However, the hip-hop commentator seems to believe he made a real impression on everything that went down on Tuesday in the Garden.

Let us know what you think of Akademiks’ story in the comments below.
