Yung Miami and Lucas were just chopping it up in the 305 when the latter wanted to know how much money the rapper had ever received from a man, or how much someone had spent on her at one time. Miami smirked and admitted, “I’m not gon’ lie, like I had a date night. It was like $2.3 million.” Jordyn couldn’t believe it. Yung Miami added, “Like, I ain’t even lying. Swear to God on my kids b*tch.”

Elsewhere, Caresha also claimed she gets called a “bird brain” because she says she never wants to get married. She expressed that “n*ggas cheat so bad” and spoke about how expensive it is to get divorced.

Fans Bring Up Yung Miami & Diddy’s Relationship

Meanwhile, Yung Miami and Diddy confirmed their relationship in 2022 after months of speculation about their appearances together at events and vacations. The rapper openly described their romance as nontraditional, explaining in interviews and on her Caresha Please podcast that they were dating while still free to see other people. Despite that arrangement, the two became one of Hip Hop’s most visible couples, frequently appearing together.

As allegations and lawsuits against Combs escalated, Yung Miami also faced online backlash for her public association with him. Critics revisited viral moments involving the pair, while others defended her, arguing that being in a relationship with someone does not automatically mean knowledge of alleged private behavior. Still, she has faced backlash for supporting him through his trial. Check out the clips of Yung Miami on the livestream below.

Thirteen pairs represent the teams that passed on Kobe in the 1996 draft. Each arrives with a mostly white wear-away upper that slowly reveals team colors underneath through use.

The Lakers colorway works completely differently. It arrives already finished in full gold and purple. No reveal, just Lakers colors from day one.

The heel carries both No. 8 and No. 24, tying back to Kobe’s two jersey numbers with the Lakers. The tongue patches reference the 1996 Draft and K. Bryant.

The full pack releases as a blind box drop. Buyers will not know which colorway they receive until they open the package. That format makes the Lakers pair the clear chase shoe of the collection. Most people going in hoping for gold and purple will end up with something else.

The blind box format is what gives this collection its tension. Every pair in the pack uses the same box. Nothing on the outside tells you what is inside until you open it. For a 14-colorway collection with one clear standout pair, that structure creates a lottery feel.

The Lakers colorway earns its status as the chase pair simply by looking different. Every other shoe in the pack starts white. The gold pair does not follow that rule at all. It arrives looking finished and deliberate from the start.

The insole on the Lakers pair features Kobe’s Mamba sheath logo rather than the draft board lottery ball graphic used on the other 13 shoes. That swap reinforces that this pair belongs in a different category from the rest. It is not just another team colorway. It is the destination the other 13 pairs were all going toward.

During Hart’s roast, the Kill Tony creator, who has long been accused of using “punching down” jokes to perpetuate racism, said, “The Black community is so proud of you… Right now, George Floyd is looking up at us all, laughing so hard he can’t breathe.” Hart and others on the stage laughed at the quip, but it has created a firestorm of backlash for everyone involved. Now, Hart is clearing the air, defending Hinchcliffe on The Breakfast Club while admitting the joke was “tasteless.

Kevin Hart Finally Speaks On The Roast Controversy

“Tony told a joke. It wasn’t a tasteful joke to us. We didn’t like it. Okay,” Hart said. “We move on. I don’t understand why we stand on a hill, and it becomes this big thing.” He added, “It doesn’t have to be that. It literally is; either you’re a fan of this level of content, or you’re not. And if you’re not a fan, then you don’t watch it.”

After also acknowledging Pete Davidson’s Charlie Kirk joke, Hart stated, “Would I tell those jokes? No. But do I get why they’re being told? Yes. I’m not looking at Pete crazy. I’m not looking at Tony crazy. I know what you’re going to do. I know your style of comedy.”

However, for many, the joke itself wasn’t the only problem. If you don’t remember, back in 2020, Hart attended George Floyd’s memorial along with several other celebrities. He even spoke with Entertainment Tonight to emphasize the importance of supporting Floyd’s family and enterprises that serve the people’s needs.

“It’s not about me. I think it’s more about just standing with the family in a moment like this,” he said at the time. “Literally, just letting them know that they’re not alone. We now have a job to do, which is to elevate our voices, use our platforms, and really push the initiative for change. So, for me, it was a no-brainer, just to come. More importantly, if you look at what’s going on globally, you look at the many different voices that are now being used… You make yourself be a part of that. Be a part of a mission that’s for good.”

The lineup includes football stars like Cristiano Ronaldo, Erling Haaland, and Kylian Mbappe alongside non-football athletes like LeBron James and Serena Williams. Cultural figures like Travis Scott, LISA from Blackpink, and Kim Kardashian also appear. The mix has already sparked debate about how far a football campaign should reach beyond the sport itself.

Nike is not anchoring the campaign around a single film or moment. Instead, the brand plans to roll out activations, collaborations, and content across a 12-week window tied to the tournament. That’s a different approach from how Nike has handled previous World Cups.

The World Cup opens June 11th across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Nike is treating it as one of the biggest marketing moments in the brand’s recent history. The reveal was just the starting point and certainly there is more coming over the weeks ahead.

The campaign reflects how Nike wants to position football right now. It is not just a sport. They are treating it as a full cultural moment.

Nike World Cup Campaign

Nike has typically built its World Cup campaigns around a single defining piece of creative. For 2026, that approach has been set aside entirely in favor of a rolling series of releases and activations. It was designed for quick, easy sharing across social platforms rather than a traditional advertising rollout.

The cast covers distinct audiences across key regions. Artists like Travis Scott, LISA, and Central Cee each connect to different communities worldwide. That spread is not accidental. Nike is trying to reach football fans across cultures simultaneously rather than through one central message.

Nike CEO Elliott Hill framed the World Cup directly as a catalyst for sustained momentum well beyond the tournament itself. The campaign is not just about the summer. Nike is building toward something longer.

This has been especially true in the aftermath of Tha Carter VI, which was seen as a disappointment to fans. There has been a sense that Wayne isn’t putting his best foot forward these days, although it does seem like he still wants to push forward.

For instance, on Wake Up Barstool this morning, Wayne revealed that Tha Carter VII is on the way. At least, that’s what it seems like. There is a world in which the album is titled something else. Whatever the case, he has music on the way.

“Tha Carter VII is coming soon,” Lil Wayne said. “I’m not sure if we going to just name my next album Tha Carter VII, but I got albums coming as well. But I don’t know when, if they going to just name it Tha Carter VII or they’re going to wait for another album and name it that, you know. But I got music for days.”

Tha Carter VII On The Way

This is certainly going to be good news for all of the Wayne fans out there. It would be nice to hear from the artist, especially given how he has felt on a personal level these days. Moreover, it was revealed today that he got engaged, which is very happy news.

We imagine he would have some bars about that, as well as everything he has gone through in the industry. Even if Tha Carter VI was a miss, there is no denying that Wayne can bounce back with a strong release.

The Might Delete Later performance was enjoyed by fans, although Cam was hoping to get a Cole interview out of it. When he couldn’t get an interview or a verse, he decided to take action and file the lawsuit.

“Two years later, with Cole having refused to honor his agreement to collaborate with plaintiff on either a single or on the podcast, defendants nevertheless released the sound recording,” Cam’s lawyers explained.

The two eventually hashed things out on Cam’s show Talk With Flee. At the time, it appeared as though things were about to turn a corner. Now, the hatched has been officially buried.

J. Cole and Cam’ron Are At Peace

At the time of Cam’s lawsuit, Cole’s lawyers were adamant that this was a shakedown of sorts. They felt as though Cam’ron was being unreasonable and that the lawsuit should be thrown out altogether.

“Plaintiff encouraged and blessed defendants’ use of his performance, as it was to his career benefit,” Cole’s legal team replied. “It was only after the release of ‘Ready ‘24’ that he began to demand unreasonable conditions never agreed to by Cole, or an excessive fee inconsistent with industry standards for a featured performance, followed by the filing of this lawsuit without notice to publicly disparage Cole as leverage.”

In the end, it is good to see these two patch things up. At the end of the day, you never want to see two legends battling it out in court.

There was quite a bit of anticipation for Drizzy to pass MJ. Drake even hinted at that with the Jackson tribute on the cover of his album ICEMAN. He has been waiting for this moment, and he did not skip a beat on social media when the record was confirmed.

Below, you can see that the artist posted an image of Michael Jackson, stylized as the “ICEMAN.” Or at least, that is how it seems. He also offered up a braggadocios caption.

“Neck broke from carrying the chain/Back broke from carrying the game/Records broken carry on my name/Carry on carry on,” Drake wrote.

Drake has every right to be feeling himself right about now. He was counted out a couple of years ago, and even heading into this rollout, fans weren’t sure if this album would live up to the hype.

While there are some detractors out there, the album is currently being praised by the vast majority of listeners. Drizzy has provided us with a song of the summer, and for now, some would argue he has a frontrunner for album of the year.

It’s going to be tough for other artists to measure up. The only hip-hop artist who could do it is Kendrick Lamar, but maybe now is not the time to get into that.

Recently, Ross was on a podcast hosted by conservative commentator Patrick Bet-David. It was here that Ross and PBD got into a bit of a back-and-forth about 50 Cent and his wealth. PBD argued that Fif has built quite the empire for himself and is worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

However, Ross wasn’t so convinced of that. In fact, he opted to go off on Fif, telling him that he should come and wash the bottom of his yacht. He even suggested that an attraction could be made out of it.

“Just because of you, I’ll let 50 wash the bottom of my yacht,” Ross said. “He’ll get the goggles, the mouthpiece, the fins on his feet and he could flap like flipper.”

50 Cent and Rick Ross Beef Continues

This subsequently led to a deeper discussion about Ross’ wealth. Bet-David continued to argue that 50 Cent is worth $100 million. Meanwhile, Rick Ross alleged that those numbers came before the bankruptcy and are no longer accurate.

“No, that was before the bankruptcy and all that. Come on now, let’s talk about this abuse and the bankruptcy,” Ross said matter-of-factly.

Whether or not 50 Cent decides to defend himself is something that remains to be seen. Overall, there is no doubt that Rick Ross is trying to inflict as much damage as humanly possible. Whether or not that strategy is actually going to work and hold up very much remains to be seen. Either way, this is just yet another example of how deep this feud goes.

Having said that, it is also a common phrase, and can certainly be used for marketing purposes. In fact, Nike and LeBron James recently teamed up for the “Dreams & Nightmares’ LeBron 23 collection. Part of this collection involves shoes and even t-shirts.

However, some have pointed out that this feels like an encroachment on Meek’s art. Even the designs on t-shirts have been compared to Meek’s album covers. Meek Mill himself noticed all of this on social media and decided to call out Nike himself.

Meek Mill Has A Point

“So @nike just gone take my whole brand and mash it up with LeBron … what is this … why wouldn’t anybody holler at me about this? I thought the sneaks was fake? Wassup with this?” Meek wrote.

He subsequently posted the shoes, which are called “Lux Dreams And Nightmares.” He originally thought the shoes might be fake, but it is clear that they are a real pair.

This has subsequently led to a debate about whether or not Meek has a real case against Nike and LeBron James. Even if he doesn’t, some find it reprehensible that Nike would still try to use these themes and designs. It’s a tough subject to broach, and we’re sure Nike themselves has an explanation.

At this time, Nike and LeBron have yet to comment on the matter. We will be sure to let you know if that changes.

According to a new report from TMZ, it appears as though Mychelle may have some underlying issues with Mayweather. We say this because footage posted on social media shows Yaya Mayweather in a brawl with three other women.

According to social media and a TMZ report, the women in question are reportedly related to Jazlyn Mychelle. In fact, it is being said on social media that the three women are her sisters. At this time, it is unclear how this all started and what exactly brought it on.

Yaya Mayweather Takes On Jazlyn Mychelle’s Sisters

What we do know is that Mayweather was out celebrating her birthday in Houston. It seemed like she was having a good night up until that point. Then she was confronted, and the brawl ensued. Based on the footage above, it is clear that Mayweather held her own in the brawl, although a three vs. one is not exactly what anyone would describe as a fair fight.

Ultimately, this is an unfortunate situation, and we’re sure that more information will be made available soon. At this time, Mayweather nor Mychelle has commented on the situation. The same goes for YoungBoy, who is likely looking to stay out of this situation entirely.

We will be sure to keep you informed in case any new details arise.
