Gabriel Bras Nevares — Fri, 07 Aug 2026 14:11:15 +0000

Pooh Shiesty was not able to secure bond in his robbery and kidnapping case concerning his label boss, Gucci Mane. But despite this legal struggle, he continues to speak out. Not only did the Memphis MC drop his new album All Eyes On Shiest, but he also addressed fans in his first public spoken message since his arrest.

“You know this s**t still going on,” he remarked, as caught by No Jumper on Instagram. “We still putting on like cologne, man… This is the one that’s bigger than the program. Ain’t s**t changed but the environment. We got new music on the way. This s**t for the fans, this s**t for everybody who been waiting… I don’t give a f**k about what no n***a got to say, what no n***a think they know what’s going on… I’ma shake back. It ain’t about how you trip up or how you stumble or how you fall. It’s always how you get back up. You know everybody can’t get back up… I’ll be back in a minute… Run this s**t up, get us to number one. We got more s**t in store…”

Why Did Gucci Mane Drop Pooh Shiesty’s Album?

In the wake of this message and AEOS, a lot of folks have been speculating about Pooh Shiesty and Gucci Mane’s dynamic. After all, this release emerged under 1017 Records, the label Shiesty allegedly forced Gucci to release him from. So a lot of folks are wondering if the Atlanta icon approved of this release and vice versa.

At the end of the day, many fans see it as a mutually beneficial move. Mane can make some money off of the drop, and Pooh gets some income for his legal woes. Maybe there will be more explanations in the future.

One thing is clear, though: Pooh Shiesty isn’t keeping his messages to just public addresses online. He also had a lot of lines on AEOS that many fans believe reference the alleged robbery and kidnapping. Of course, the recording and release timeline puts a lot of that under scrutiny. But this case will not get any easier to navigate anytime soon.

The Game Allegedly Calls Out Kendrick Lamar As Fans Speculate On Decade-Long Beef

Gabriel Bras Nevares — Fri, 07 Aug 2026 13:48:58 +0000

The long-standing tension between The Game and fellow Compton artist Kendrick Lamar hasn’t really gotten much of an explanation. Fans have their theories, sure, but that’s all they had until a recent development on the 3rd Verse podcast. In fact, it seems like some shady comments from Game in Kendrick’s direction have also formed part of the drama.

The Documentary‘s creator allegedly took to Instagram to leave a mysterious comment under a video that allegedly criticized Lamar for supposedly not reciprocating Game’s career support. “At least one [ninja emoji] get it,” he allegedly wrote. “Fans & internet goofy’s will never get it. These [ninja emoji]’s aren’t who you think they are. One day I’m gone pull the curtain down so you can see every clown in they circus.”

As for the 3rd Verse podcast, hosts Justin Hunte and Stat Quo were discussing this feud, and Stat spoke on an alleged conversation he had with The Game. It’s about his Drake collaboration “100,” whose music video was in Compton.

“These n****s aren’t who you think they are.”

The Game left a comment under a video arguing that Kendrick Lamar should show him more respect for supporting him early in his career and helping usher him into the industry.

“He didn’t know that Kendrick felt a way about that,” Stat remarked. “But he said in retrospect, he can see and understand it… But he said when Kendrick did Power, and they knew that 50 Cent was his arch-nemesis, he didn’t feel a way. He enjoyed it. So he was like, ‘I didn’t care that Kendrick did Power.'”

The Game responds to recent claims that Kendrick Lamar cut him off after Game allowed Drake to diss him in Compton in 2015, arguing that he didn't take issue with Kendrick working alongside 50 Cent on an episode of Power in 2018, despite 50 Cent and Game's long-standing feud.… pic.twitter.com/zjdmwEpQPB

During the conversation, Top Dawg allegedly called Stat Quo to clarify Lamar and Game’s tension. It apparently didn’t come out of nowhere, and the lack of communication is due to the Drizzy collab.

“Dot didn’t just stop talking to [The Game] for no reason,” Stat claimed. “After that video that dude shot in Compton, that changed everything. The ‘100’ video… Top’s thing is like, ‘It don’t need to be perceived as Dot just stopped talking to Game out of nowhere.’ That was the thing that did it. He reminded me that some of the younger guys, when they shot that Jay Rock video, they went over to Game’s house to do that part. When he put that mask on, he said the label or somebody said he couldn’t show his face. But two weeks later, he did a Hurricane Chris video… When they shot that ‘100’ video in Compton, Top communicated that to Wack and Chuck, and I said that to both of them, too. So it wasn’t like the n***a ain’t know.”

Jaden Newman was the latest victim of a sex tape leak earlier this week. For those who are unaware, Jaden Newman is the sister of Julian Newman, a former child basketball prodigy.

The Newman family has been in the news quite a bit over the past few years, and not always for the best reasons. Julian Newman, specifically, has found himself at odds with the internet, going at it with people who have something to say about his skills or lack thereof.

When Jaden Newman’s sex tape first leaked online, Julian took to social media to call people weird for telling him about it. However, his statement did not help matters die down. Instead, he has been hounded incessantly about the situation for days.

Recently, he decided to speak out all over again. This time around, he made it clear that Jaden’s popularity is only going to skyrocket due to the way people are talking about her. He also compared her to Kim Kardashian.

Kim Kardashian’s Ray J sex tape infamously made her incredibly famous. However, that playbook doesn’t exactly work anymore. In the age of the internet, these kinds of stories are always coming and going.

In fact, over the past few weeks, numerous sex tapes have leaked online. ilykimchi, Ari Fletcher, and Tbvnks have all been the victims of this. Furthermore, Daphne Joy also had her tape leaked with Diddy.

At this time, Jaden Newman herself has not commented on the situation. Instead, her famous brother Julian has been the one to take to the internet. Overall, it is one of those situations that is just truly unfortunate, in all respects.

EST Gee — “SOMETIMES”

Tallie Spencer — Fri, 07 Aug 2026 07:25:07 +0000

EST Gee keeps his 2026 run moving with his latest single, “SOMETIMES.” The Louisville rapper leans into the contradictions of his lifestyle, bouncing between women, luxury cars, money and the realities that come with remaining connected to the streets. Gee builds much of the record around the word “sometimes,” using the repetition to move between flexes and more matter-of-fact observations. It’s a straightforward approach that fits his unbothered delivery. “SOMETIMES” follows July’s “CALL SPITTA.” EST Gee is surely gearing up for an album and is continue to tease singles until he drops.

Sometime, baby, I want you to scream, bae, I want you to shout (Sometimes)

Tallie Spencer — Fri, 07 Aug 2026 05:15:00 +0000

Victor Victor Worldwide brings a few different corners of rap together for its new compilation EP, IL CAOS PARTE 1. The four-track project pairs rising names King Beamo and Lil Dann with one of rap’s most familiar duos, Lil Baby and Rylo Rodriguez. “Grind Time” is the immediate standout, reuniting Baby and Rylo over dark, hard-hitting production. The two have built plenty of chemistry over the years, and their latest link-up keeps that streak going. At just four songs, IL CAOS PARTE 1 plays more like an introduction to something bigger, especially with “Parte 1” right there in the title.
