Ultimately, it led to plenty of backlash against Playboi Carti, who was spotted at the scene of the fight but not participating in it. Still, much of the blame has been placed on Carti for what went down, but Wack 100 isn’t allowing that narrative to spread.

During a recent conversation on Clubhouse, Wack 100 got into it with a person who called out Playboi Carti for what went down. However, Wack vehemently denied that the Whole Lotta Red rapper was involved in the altercation. The two ended up arguing about the genesis of the beef, though Wack wasn’t trying to hear any of it. Check out the clip below.

According to XXL, the altercation began between LUCKI and Destroy Lonely, who threw the first punch before it turned into a full-blown brawl. TMZ reports that four victims sustained injuries, including at least one other who was reportedly stabbed. 

Thus far, the details aren’t completely clear, but LAPD is reportedly looking into the incident as an attempted murder. Carti himself hasn’t directly responded to the incident, though some suspected that he threw a shot at Lucki during his performance at ComplexCon, stating, “We made it this f*cking far, f*ck that n**** man. Yeah, YVL business.” Meanwhile, Lucki confirmed to a fan that he’s doing okay. We will keep you posted on any further updates.

These court docs were centered around their custody battle, as well as Diamond’s fight for more child support. It was here that she accused Brown of being abusive towards her new partners. She also accused Brown of not seeing his daughter in seven months. Elsewhere in the filing, she also stated that she needs more child support, as $1500 per month simply isn’t cutting it.

“He has made death threats against my most recent boyfriend, and continued threats to not only him, but also to his twin brother. I understand that he has also had third parties make threats,” Diamond alleged. “Both of these relationships broke up because of Chris’s Harassment. I should not be left to be scared to move on with my life because of Chris’s anger and resentment.”

Brown has since responded to Diamond’s claims. On social media, he stated that he pays for everything related to Lovely. Furthermore, he says the expenses paid towards Diamond can sometimes be upwards of $10K per month. He also alleges his daughter is being kept from him, and he wants to see her.

Chris Brown Speaks Out

“Not allowing me to have time with my child so you can run with a false narrative to the court is disgusting,” Brown wrote. “There is no 50/50 co parenting. I LITERALLY PAY FOR EVERYTHING, her cars(2), her HOUSE, SCHOOLING, MEDICAL, and 10K a month. I HAVEN’T SEEN MY DAUGHTER IN 7 months. I DON’T CARE ABOUT THIS BITTER BABYMOMMA or who she date. I CARE ABOUT MY CHILD. I wanna know what she tells LOVELY when she asks about her dad.”

According to TMZ, Brown’s lawyer sent an email to Diamond’s legal team, denying all allegations.  “Chris denies this and in fact I continue to see your client posting things that are inappropriate. Please send me specifics to address so | can understand and assist if this is really happening,” the alleged email reads.

At this time, Diamond has not responded to Chris Brown’s Instagram story.

Kai didn’t get defensive about it. He said the first collection is a reflection of his own life. You can see the things that inspired him, from his childhood to where he is now. His main point is that you can look at the pieces and “see what Kai likes.”

The comparisons started right around the New York Fashion Week debut. Fans pointed to the muted colors, oversized fits, and distressed finishes. Some called it Yeezy cosplay, and others took issue with the prices.

This is certainly something Kai saw coming, as he’s incredibly tuned into the internet. Still, he launched Vivet and continues to pursue his dream, which is admirable, of course.

It is also very much worth noting that Kanye West stopped by the Vivet booth at ComplexCon, and Complex reported that he and Kai shared a moment. That’s a notable scene for a brand that’s less than a year old.

Kai Cenat On Vivet & Yeezy Comparison

The comparisons aren’t going away anytime soon. Vivet’s first collection has 20 pieces, with prices from $20 to $1,195. It includes hoodies, leather, boots, loafers, and more. A creator launching a line at that scale will get every piece picked apart.

Still, the early signs are positive. The brand’s first-ever pop-up drew a crowd at ComplexCon, and celebrities like Savannah James stopped by. We covered Kai Cenat’s Vivet ComplexCon pop-up earlier this week.

Kai also ties Vivet to his Trinidadian and Haitian roots, and he’s building it independently. His personal angle is a big part of the inspiration. Every designer takes cues from somewhere. What matters is whether Vivet builds its own identity over time. The next collection will be a big test, and Kai clearly isn’t worried about the critics.

A recent story from Adam22, recounted by DJ Akademiks, seems to confirm Drake’s response as authentic. While streaming with Trap Lore Ross, Akademiks told the story he heard from Adam22, and it just goes to show that Drake is on a different level of wealth.

The story begins with Drake’s 20V1, which ended with Pinkchyu winning a house for her mom. As Ak explains, every other girl in the shoot also got a lavish gift. However, there was one woman who was somehow overlooked.

Drake felt bad about the situation and gave her his credit card. He told her to go shopping with his people and buy whatever she wants. In the end, she only spent $30K, prompting Drake to say, “That’s all she spent?”

Drake Reportedly Cops Extravagant Gifts For 20V1

Akademiks also went on to say that Drake’s private plane costs $100K every single time it gets into the air. He used this revelation to say that for Drizzy, these kinds of expenditures simply do not make a dent in his bottom line.

Back on August 4, Drake had a Strong Women Stronger Drinks event, where many of the guests were vying for luxury prizes. One woman even went home with a gorgeous Maybach.

Needless to say, Christmas exists all year round in Drake’s mind. While this has led to some criticism, it has also led to quite a bit of praise.

Given everything we’ve heard this weekend, it doesn’t appear as though Drake will be stopping this, anytime soon.

For those who may not be aware, Carti’s entourage allegedly got into a fight with LUCKI. LUCKI was stabbed during the altercation and could be seen bleeding from his face. It was a harrowing scene that has led to some strong reactions on social media.

Meanwhile, the LAPD is investigating the incident as an attempted murder. It just goes to show that this entire situation is being taken seriously by the authorities.

That said, DJ Akademiks found it curious that Ye would associate himself alongside Carti over the weekend. In fact, while streaming with Trap Lore Ross, Akademiks floated a theory as to why Ye would be so heavily featured.

“Complex pushed for him to do something with Ye at the convention to change the narrative,” Akademiks alleged.

These are interesting comments coming from Akademiks, especially when you consider the fact that the commentator was also at ComplexCon over the weekend. He hosted a panel with French Montana and Adam22, which proved to be successful in its own right.

As for the alleged incident between Carti and LUCKI, Complex has since made a statement.

“The safety and security of our guests, talent, partners and staff is our highest priority. We are aware of an incident that occurred outside the ComplexCon event yesterday and our security team and the LAPD responded immediately. We take incidents of this nature extremely seriously and remain focused on maintaining a safe and secure environment for everyone attending ComplexCon.”

“I was a little insensitive with my words,” the Bay Area rapper said in a video shared on Instagram. “I said that I didn’t condone what he did to Cassie but I would go to his party if he came home. And I really didn’t know the full extent of the case. I did not know that there were a lot of women who had claimed that they had been abused by Puff Daddy, and how it affected them. I do not condone abuse in any kind of way. Not emotional, not physical, not sexual, and I don’t support anybody that does it.”

The apology came after several people reached out to him with disappointment in his comments. Short Dog explained that he read more on the case afterward. He stated that he doesn’t support abuse or abusers, and expressed regret if his words hurt anybody.

Too Short Apologizes

“When I say I’m going to go to his party, I was talking about the parties that he throws for his friends, not any party where it’s f*cking baby oil or some g*ddamn sexual sh*t,” Too Short said. I’ve been to dozens of his parties and never once have I seen a naked person or a sexual act.” He added, “I hope that when my brother comes home that he has grown.”

The backlash arrived after a recent appearance on The TMZ Podcast where he stated that he would welcome Diddy back home after his incarceration. However, he also stated that he doesn’t condone the surveillance footage that showed Diddy assaulting Cassie.

Steven Victor caught the moment on camera. He asked Kanye how much it cost, and the answer came with a laugh. Kanye said 1.8, then joked that you shouldn’t have to ask.

He wasn’t alone and Bianca Censori and his daughter North West were with him as he walked the floor. Later, Kanye joined Playboi Carti on stage during Carti’s set.

The watch itself is a true showpiece. It’s the Royal Oak Double Balance Wheel Openworked. The 37 mm white gold case and bracelet are covered in baguette-cut diamonds. A see-through skeleton dial lets you see the movement inside.

Kanye picked it up for his 49th birthday back in June. Also at its wild price point, it’s a serious piece for any collection.

It’s also definitely classic Kanye. He’s never shied away from a flex, and ComplexCon is the perfect stage for it. Everyone else was focused on shoes and drops, and he showed up with a watch that could buy a few booths. Of course, the video went viral right away with his cheeky smile.

Kanye’s Audemars Piguet Watch

A few weeks ago, a jeweler shared a set of custom grills made for him. Kanye West responded to the jeweler’s post by saying he didn’t know the person and didn’t order them. That set off a back and forth fans couldn’t ignore.

He’s been busy on the footwear side too. His Yeezy 800 High Tactical Boot got a first look on Instagram, and it’s still waiting on a release date.

Overall between the watch, the grills, and the new sneakers, Kanye clearly knows how to keep people talking. Showing off a diamond Audemars Piguet at a sneaker and streetwear convention feels like a natural next step. Finally whatever he does next, it’ll be hard for anyone to look away.

The internet can be incredibly harsh when it comes to music they don’t like. Although Quavo has gotten some positive feedback on the album, it remains clear that the fans simply are not feeling it right now.

According to Kurrco, this apathy for the project has extended to the album’s first week sales. While Drake is showcasing some dominant numbers with just four songs on HABIBTI (FOMO), Quavo may not even make the top 10 on Billboard. At this time, QRÖMELIFE is projected to sell just 13K units in the first week.

Quavo’s QRÖMELIFE Struggles On The Charts

For an artist who was in Migos, there is no doubt that this is a disappointing showing. Quavo is supposed to be the leader of that group, and can’t seem to pull above 15K. One has to wonder if this is because of a lack of interest in hip-hop right now, or if the entire industry is going through a slump.

Next year, Quavo is supposed to drop two projects. One with Takeoff, and one with Migos as an entire collective. From there, we will also be getting a Takeoff solo album. Hopefully, those projects are able to generate more interest.

Interestingly enough, Offset is set to drop a new album on October 23. Offset’s solo career has been fun to watch, and the sales comparisons will be unavoidable.

Let us know what you thought of the Quavo album, in the comments below.
