Back in February, Diggs pleaded not guilty to the charges. Today, Diggs was back in court in Massachusetts, where he is currently on trial, facing his accuser. Jury selection took place this morning, and this afternoon, Adams herself is on the stand.

In fact, a video from the trial has just gone viral on social media. This clip comes courtesy of the Law & Crime Network. As you will hear below, Adams alleged that she was in a sexual relationship with Diggs. Adams claims the two had become friends, and then later began a sexual relationship. This subsequently led to Diggs hiring her as his personal chef.

Stefon Diggs Trial Day 1

Adams says her work with Diggs officially began in February of 2025. However, it eventually took a turn for the worse, and she left. Now, Adams is accusing Diggs of assault, and the charges are quite serious.

The initial charges came amidst Diggs’ playoff run with the New England Patriots. If you remember, Diggs made it to the Super Bowl, although his team eventually lost to the Seattle Seahawks. It was around this time that Cardi B officially broke up with Diggs.

Back in March, the New England Patriots announced that they would no longer be employing Diggs. He was let go, and millions of dollars’ worth of cap space was opened up as a result. At this time, Diggs remains a free agent, with numerous teams waiting to see how this trial plays out.

So far, Diggs has yet to take the stand. The trial is expected to last only two to three days.

Weeks ago, Diamond Brown aired out her grievances with Chris Brown on social media. While Lovely had been born in January of 2022, Diamond alleges that Chris was scaring off her new boyfriends. She alleges he did this even though he was already engaged in a relationship with Wallace.

Wallace eventually got involved in the situation, where she called out Diamond for bringing all of this to the internet. “You a lame for running to the internet,” Jada wrote. “Tryna air business out like you not the one that’s stopping him from seeing his daughter.”

The feud between the two escalated, with Diamond Brown suggesting that she would fight Wallace at some point in the near future.

Diamond Brown Speaks Out

As for the paternity suit, Diamond Brown alleges that Chris has already acknowledged paternity through a voluntary declaration. Subsequently, she is hoping for full physical and legal custody, with visitation rights for Brown should he so choose.

Since Lovely’s birth four years ago, the child has reportedly been under Diamond’s care.

Overall, these kinds of situations can be quite harrowing for everyone involved. This is especially true when paternity suits become involved, and there is custody at stake. At this time, Chris Brown has not responded to the paternity suit. Instead, TMZ has simply acquired the paperwork. It is presumed that this will be resolved shortly.

While Cudi thought she could keep her politics to herself during the tour, that turned out not to be the case. According to Variety, on Saturday, May 2, during a show at the Dos Equis Pavilion in Dallas, M.I.A. went on a political rant about being blackballed for her views. She then went on to suggest that some of the fans in the crowd were undocumented immigrants.

“I’ve been canceled for many reasons. I never thought I would be canceled for being a brown Republican voter,” M.I.A. said. “I can’t do ‘Illegal,’ though some of you could be in the audience.”

This rant eventually went viral on social media, with many fans wondering whether or not Kid Cudi would take action. After all, it’s his tour, and he has a duty to make his fans feel safe during the show.

Just moments ago, Cudi took action. On Instagram, he revealed that M.I.A. has been fired from the tour. He also revealed that M.I.A.’s team was warned before the tour to stay away from anything offensive. A boundary was crossed, and Cudi did what he had to do.

Kid Cudi Takes Action

Per Kid Cudi:

“TOUR UPDATE: M.I.A is no longer on this tour. I told my management to send a notice to her team before we started tour that I didn’t want anything offensive at my shows, cuz I already knew what time it was, and I was assured things were understood. After the last couple shows, I’ve been flooded with messages from fans that were upset by her rants. This, to me, is very disappointing, and I wont have someone on my tour making offensive remarks that upsets my fanbase. Thank you for understanding. Rager.”

This must have been a tough decision for Kid Cudi, who is known for being a safe space for his fans. As of press time, M.I.A. has not commented on the situation.

While Wayne’s musical success certainly opened a lot of doors for his daughter, Reginae Carter, it also closed a few doors, as well. For instance, during a recent episode of Heir Talk, Carter sat down with Nas’ daughter, Destiny Jones. It was here that they had a lengthy conversation about being the daughters of famous rappers.

As you can imagine, they have lots of common ground with each other. This subsequently led to Carter explaining her childhood in Atlanta and how she had a hard time getting accepted into certain schools.

Carter was hoping to get into private schools. At the time, she was in a Christian school and wanted to switch. However, there were numerous schools that denied her. It was all because of who her father was and what he was saying in his music.

Reginae Carter On Lil Wayne

“I went to Christian school almost my whole life,” Carter explained. “A lot of the private schools I wanted to go to — I’m not going to say the names — were blocking me because of what my dad was doing a lot of the time, because of the music he was making. It was a lot of big schools in Atlanta, the biggest that rejected me. They rejected a lot of celebrity kids.”

As Carter notes, lots of celebrity kids had been denied from these schools for similar reasons. Carter has been honest about what life was like with Wayne as he father, and this just so happened to be one of the pitfalls.

The entire conversation between Jones and Carter was 52 minutes long, and it was a dope insight into their family life.

Since that time, Smith has had a rotating cast of co-hosts. Skip’s direct replacement was Max Kellerman, although Kellerman eventually got kicked to the curb. Since that time, Smith has completely taken over the show, with no concrete replacement in sight.

With Bayless’ exit from FS1, there has been all sorts of speculation that Skip would return to ESPN and First Take. According to Front Office Sports, that reunion is now official, although there is a catch.

Bayless and Smith will reunite on Friday for what has been called a “one-time show.” Don’t expect this to happen ever again.

Skip Bayless Returns To First Take

Smith and Bayless recently reunited on an episode of Gil’s Arena, but it simply wasn’t the same. Their chemistry wasn’t there, especially since there were other members of the panel.

However, a reunion on ESPN’s First Take could very well be a great opportunity for these two to connect with the longtime ESPN viewers. While Smith and Bayless were a controversial duo, they were the forefathers of the sports-talk debate format.

To this day, their clips go viral on social media. Everyone has this nostalgia for Miami Heat era LeBron James, who was a frequent target of Bayless and the show at large. We can only imagine what kind of LeBron debates are going to be had on Friday.

Unfortunately, Cari Champion and Molly Qerim will not be around for the show. They were the OG moderators of First Take and would be a welcome addition to Friday’s reunion special.

If you are a sports fan, you can’t help but want to tune in on Friday, regardless of how you may feel about Smith, Bayless, and their influence.

Finesse is basically locked into a 360 deal, meaning that the label has the rights to his name and likeness. They profit from anything involving him. ChatGPT basically explained that it’s a one-sided contract that unfairly benefits Mob Ties and Atlantic Records more than it does him. 

“The old man told me ‘don’t get a lawyer,’” he said, referring to J. Prince, though later admitting his issues are primarily with his son, J. Prince Jr.. ChatGPT explained that his advance and benefits, including jewelry and luxury accommodations like private jets, can be used against him in court if he wants to negotiate. What’s worse is that any attempt to walk away can trigger legal action against Finesse2Tymes or recoupment claims for those expenses. ChatGPT also explained that he can’t escape from the “assignment clause,” which would allow the label to transfer to the contract to another label at any time.

In the post, Finesse expressed his disappointment with J. Prince Jr. and the situation at large because he placed in trust in them. “Yall think this shyt funny but it’s not. I moved off loyalty. I thought it was an honor to Have ‘J prince , The old man’ be my manager. Y’all told me I didn’t need a lawyer because all they do is fukk over people. Well it looks like to me yall worse than lawyers,” he wrote before pleading for assistance. “I’m asking as a man can somebody please help buy me out this situation before I crash out and do some that get me a life sentence because the way I’m going out ITS GUARANTEED IM NOT GONE DIE IN THE PROCESS.”

It’s going to be an uphill battle for Finesse2Tymes. However, it appears that he’s not keeping his foot off of the gas. This weekend, he released his new project, F*kk Da Labels, which is basically a YouTube playlist of previously unreleased music. Let us know your thoughts on the Finesse2Tymes situation in the comment section below.

However, that has changed in recent months. Agallah has been railing against Busta as of late and has been threatening to expose him for alleged industry misdeeds. In fact, in a recent Facebook post, Agallah alleges that he was “snaked” by the legendary rapper.

“8 am on my live I am going to speak true facts on Busta Rhymes issue tune in,” Agallah The Don wrote. “We must bring the truth to light about how he [snaked] me and used me and claim he has no problem w me but thinks I forgot principles about integrity and legacy and we gonna discuss a whole lot how he got got cause of his own acts and I tried to be a friend to him he knows I was always ready for war and could never put any fear in my heart cause I run with god.

This has subsequently led to the creation of Agallah’s latest diss track, “Chump.” As you can see from the cover art below, this track is taking direct aim at Busta Rhymes. Below, you can listen to the preview, which is quite scathing. However, you will only be able to hear the finished product as of this Friday, May 8th.

The Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Low “Pink Pack” drops May 22nd for $155. The timing of this Miami departure lines up directly with that release window, and Travis clearly wasn’t waiting around to start wearing them.

The fit itself was equally on-point. White Chrome Hearts tank, Chrome Hearts jeans with pink cross patches, a floral pink belt, stacked gold chains, and a bucket hat. He carried an MCM trunk, a multicolor Louis Vuitton bag, and a croc-embossed tote alongside the Goyard cases. Then two guys loaded the pink trunks onto the jet stairs behind him. It was a full production from tarmac to takeoff.

Goyard trunks are not an everyday purchase. The brand doesn’t advertise, there are no sales, and custom pieces can take months to commission. A pink trunk at that scale is a serious statement even by Travis Scott standards.

The Pink Pack breaks away from Travis Scott’s usual earth tone Jordan releases. Pink was not in his vocabulary until now. The trunks, the shoes, and the whole Miami exit suggest he’s leaning all the way into the new direction.

Travis Scott Pink Pack AJ1 & Goyard Trunk

Goyard is one of the oldest luxury trunk makers in the world, founded in Paris in 1853. The brand still operates the same way it always has with no e-commerce, no advertising, no discounts, everything made to order.

A custom pink trunk at that scale would run well into five figures, possibly more depending on customization. The brand’s signature Goyardine canvas pattern covers the exterior, and the hardware is typically brass or gold.

Pink is a non-standard colorway, which means this was a special commission, not something pulled off a shelf. Travis showing up with two of them while already wearing the “Pink Pack” sends a clear message that this vibe is here.

Throughout the past few years, his current ability to write a hit has been put into question. While “Nokia” was certainly a massive song, he has not been able to sustain a number one in quite some time.

With ICEMAN, Drake will be looking to change that narrative. The album is set to drop on May 15, and it could very well end up being the most important album of his entire career. Fans want big hits, and they also want him to change up his sound and innovate. These are tough expectations to live up to, but his supporters are keeping the faith.

In fact, despite the recent criticism against Drake, his support has never wavered. The fans are still streaming his catalog en masse. Spotify’s numbers back this up. According to Kurrco, Drake has been the most-streamed rapper on Spotify throughout every single month of the year so far.

Drake Dominates The Streaming Charts

Every single week, it feels as though we are reporting on some new streaming milestone from Drake. At this point in his career, the longevity is impressive. Following the beef with Kendrick Lamar, there were some who felt like the rapper’s career was over. That it was now Lamar’s turn to be the biggest artist in hip-hop. When it comes to streaming, Drake has been able to weather the storm.

With the new album dropping in 11 days, all eyes will be on Drake. Whether or not we get a lead single still remains to be seen. No matter what, it is clear that this project is going to be hip-hop’s biggest release of the entire year.

2026 has been solid for hip-hop so far, and the year only promises to get better.

Back in December, Jacquees accused Sanders of keeping him from seeing his son. Over the weekend, Deiondra Sanders took to her Instagram, where she addressed the narratives surrounding her relationship with Jacquees. In The Shade Room’s post below, you can find a screenshot of this Instagram story, in which Sanders notes that Jacquees is always welcome to see his on.

Sanders claims the only time she refused was due to a situation in which Jacquees’ family wanted him all alone. At the time, they were allegedly friendly with someone who threatened Snow’s life. Snow was also much younger, and Sanders did not feel comfortable with the situation.

This subsequently sparked a response from Jacquees, who called Sanders a liar. “Oh no this girl decided to get on the net and we’ve been good? She’s lying this is terrible smh can somebody please help her? I’m tired,” he wrote.

She also reasserts that she has been a good mother to Snow and that she has never been bitter throughout the situation. When commenters told her to stop airing out personal business online, Sanders explained that she wants to set the record straight, especially when Jacquees is calling her a liar.
