In video footage, Blue tried to say this was normal behavior, but the EMTs on the scene continued to ask questions. Eventually, folks moved him away from the couch Adrien was slumped on and led him to a flight of stairs, where he seemed to go in and out of consciousness. Then, EMTs and his friends helped get him on a wheelchair, and DJ Akademiks TV caught some more footage of the incident on Instagram.

The West Coast MC accompanied AB on his way to a car with EMTs, and it’s unclear if they took him to a medical facility or back to where he was staying at. Later in Blue’s livestream, he said, “I ain’t seen him drink that much,” and it’s unclear if he meant Broner didn’t drink much or if he drank more than what Blue had seen him drink before.

What Happened To Adrien Broner?

A post shared by Akademiks TV (@djakademikstv)

Some fans believe this was all staged for clicks and engagement. But it still raises serious concerns about the former pro boxer’s health. Hopefully he’s recovering well and finds his way out of these types of situations in the future.

Adrien Broner often gets into livestreamed antics, whether it’s conflicts with friends like Ray J or run-ins with law enforcement. It’s unclear exactly what happened to him at the Skilla Baby show, as deep intoxication or some other health-related reaction may have been the cause. We’ll have to wait and see if Adrien addresses the issue anytime soon.

Elsewhere, Adrien Broner is also putting out music and has to deal with a sexual battery case against him. Throughout these sagas, his health and drinking habits have always been center-stage. Hopefully Broner can turn things around and get the help he needs with those narratives in mind.

“EVERY BODY WATCH DRUSKI SNL,” the Houston superstar wrote. “THE GREAT. I DONT GIVE A F**K WHAT YOU DOING. BREAK SNL STATION FOR ONCE. HE THE ONLY ONE WE GOT.”

Along with celebrity friends celebrating this online, plenty of others attended the actual shoot to support the comedian. These include folks like Dave Chappelle, Emma Stone, Michael B. Jordan, Chris Rock, and many more.

One of the most notable sketches and skits for Dru’s Saturday Night Live hosting debut was Dru Can See Everything. It’s a spoof of the acclaimed Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim-helmed documentary about Elizabeth Holmes, You Can See Everything.

Druski broke out his whiteface again to make fun of the premise and the controversial businesswoman at the center of Fielder and Oppenheim’s project. While some folks online aren’t happy with how other sketches turned out, this one seems to be a favorite on social media.

Druski has other big moves under his belt, as he recently reached a huge deal with Netflix and announced a new show with Mike Epps. This will reportedly bring some of his “Coulda Been” reality TV series and other sketches to the platform, and may even lead to stand-up specials and other types of content in the future. That last part is wholly speculative, though, but it’s something fans have been thinking a lot about.

As for the show with Mike Epps, the Maryland comedian will star in the church comedy Collect & Praise, which comes out on December 1. We’ll see how that pans out in comparison to his online content.

Amid all this success, Druski’s done a lot of reflecting on his path, whether it’s thanking celebrities for their support or on life before the fame. He continues to rack up massive strides in the entertainment industry, which will be hard to navigate. But this SNL run shows things may only go up from here.

In an interview with the Associated Press, Hardwick responded to a question about whether or not he knew Kemp was trying to write his character out of the show early. This is a claim the G-Unit mogul has made in the past.

“There was definitely a shift,” he said. “Often times, the most talented people are treated not necessarily the greatest. I think there’s a lot of small a**es in big seats in life. Trying to relegate the big a**es to small seats in life. So I started to know the lay of the land as it pertained to New York having me… ‘What up, Ghost!’ […] I never said anything, did I? That’s why I always rock with 50. I always pray for Courtney. Always. Never stopped praying for her. Shouted her out the other day. Gifted. I can still acknowledge God [has] given a gift. All of it served me.”

“small a** in a BIG seat, she forgot I hired her,” Fif captioned his post. “@omarihardwickofficial a real [ninja emoji]. we hit the bullseye with POWER.”

50 Cent & Courtney Kemp Beef

A post shared by The Shade Room (@theshaderoom)

For those unaware, 50 Cent’s beef with Courtney Kemp stems from creative control and credit in the Power universe. Most recently, he accused her of sleeping with cast and crew members. This was after she had responded to 50’s criticisms of her in a recent interview.

“50’s recollection of budgets and production requirements is uninformed, as he was rarely in a budget meeting. I have never once understated his importance in the genesis of Power,” Kemp remarked. “While he did not write nor create the series, he was a large part of its birth. That said, I am completely bewildered by his need to mention me in interviews or podcasts. I have completely moved on in my career. I hope that the imminent success of Street Fighter allows him to do the same.”

The lawsuit, seeking $41 million, reportedly appeared in San Francisco federal court. Eight Mile Style is accusing Suno of using copyrighted material from Em to train its generative model and result in output that resembles his work. Eight Mile Style owns the rights to 269 of Slim Shady’s works, including “The Real Slim Shady,” “Lose Yourself,” and “Stan.”

They want $150K for each composition plus $672K for the alleged removal of copyright information. However, this may not equate to the actual court award, as the total $41 million figure only represents what the plaintiffs are seeking.

“Suno exists to help people create new, original music, not to trade on anyone’s name or likeness, and we prohibit any unauthorized use of an artist’s work,” Suno reportedly stated to Billboard. “To protect against this, we do not allow prompts for specific artists’ names and songs and work with third party providers to screen uploaded audio files and lyrics for potential misuse. We are always working to strengthen our guardrails and we will continue to add new safeguards that protect artists and our users.”

This is one of many legal disputes over AI in music, whether they concern Suno or not. It also represents the murky water between copyright law, generative AI models, and users’ output on platforms like Suno, as it’s hard to tell where one starts and another begins.

Eminem’s New Music

Elsewhere, Eminem’s new music is catching flack. He teamed up with his Detroit friend Kid Rock for a new track, which angered many fans due to his previous anti-Donald Trump stances and Rock’s MAGA alignment.

Ironically enough, Kid Rock said he used AI on that Eminem collab. We’ll see where this legal dispute with Suno goes and what Slim Shady’s next musical moves will provoke among fans.

While the official numbers aren’t out yet, the stadium reportedly has a capacity of 100,000 for sold-out events. So fans assume the official number is close to this, and we’ll have to wait for official confirmation. The Chicago superstar just set the record at his Houston show for Halloween this year with 80,210, and reportedly shattered it just a week later.

Kanye West’s rekindled friendship with Kid Cudi manifested onstage last night, as caught by NFR Podcast on Instagram. The two performed “Father Stretch My Hands Pt. 1” and “Ghost Town” together and walked out together for “Runaway,” whereas Cudi performed his tracks “Pursuit of Happiness” (specifically the Steve Aoki remix) and the classic “Day ‘N’ Nite (Nightmare).”

Earlier in the show, Ye brought out Erykah Badu, which surprised many fans. She performed her classics “Didn’t Cha Know,” “On & On,” “Love Of My Life (An Ode To Hip-Hop),” and “Tyrone.”

Ye has more shows on the way, with one in Phoenix on November 21 and one in Mexico City on March 19 of next year. While Kanye West’s controversies haven’t escaped him, this hasn’t made his tour any less successful or engaging when it comes to fans willing to attend.

At this rate, we wouldn’t be surprised if he keeps breaking records for future shows, although there are now questions about when this tour will “end.” Is there going to be a next phase, a significant break, or is consistently organizing new concerts just the Yeezy mogul’s approach now?

In any case, there will always be demand for more shows from him. We’ll have to wait and see how this all evolves in the future.

In the clip, the What A Time To Be Alive duo shared a laugh in a nightclub, which the “Ya Hit” collaborators reportedly rented out to shoot some footage for a potential music video. They just vibed out to the track and had a conversation, and there were some other moments of La Flame hanging out with Shimmy.

While this is very simple and doesn’t really reveal much, fans questioning Drizzy and Pluto’s dynamic will take anything they can get. They seemed distant in other recorded moments from this shoot, which raised a lot of questions about whether or not they really squashed their beef. Now, though, there is more evidence indicating things are all good between them, even though fans will never feel satisfied until either MC talks about this openly and earnestly.

Future & Drake’s “Ya Hit”

A post shared by Freebandz Entertainment (@freebandz)

Future’s “Ya Hit” sparked a lot of fan reactions, whether it was folks happy with the superstar team-up or disappointed by its results. The discussion also included a lot of speculation about the dynamics between these collaborators and whether or not they can recapture the magic of previous link-ups.

The “Where Ya At” duo became the focal point of discussion thanks to all the theories around Drake and Future’s friendship. After Kendrick Lamar dissed the former on the latter’s album, and Fewtch seemed to double down with his own disses and collaborations with folks like A$AP Rocky, it seemed like their bond would be no more.

But “Ran To Atlanta” disproved that on ICEMAN, although it didn’t quell all questions about their dynamic. Now, it seems like fans of both can rest easy knowing they’re working their issues out.

The track-by-track breakdown reveals an average of around 356K Spotify streams per song. As of writing this article, excluding the previously released “Dead Fresh” single, “Mr. Do Something” is the tracklist’s best performer so far with 882K streams, followed by the Rylo Rodriguez, Future, and Young Thug-assisted track “All My Partnas” with 571K.

Furthermore, this first-day performance for the full-length as a whole is a step down when compared to the Atlanta star’s previous efforts. 2025’s WHAM secured 16 million streams on Spotify in its first day, whereas 2022’s It’s Only Me earned 23.6 million. Those projects went number one on Billboard, and we’ll see if FRESH catches up and reaches similar heights.

Although this performance may be disappointing to some fans and prime food for haters to indulge in, it’s not the end of the world. What goes up must come down, and basing conversations only on numbers won’t lead you anyplace useful. For Baby, what he must focus on is how he’s connecting artistically with his audience, and whether or not he can prove himself to higher standards and a more evolved direction.

Lil Baby’s Spotify Streams

However, other commercial metrics like FRESH‘s heavy presence at the top of Apple Music’s United States chart show the album is experiencing plenty of success. As such, no success or failure can outweigh the other; only time will tell if the album is truly resonant and if Wham fans ride for it.

Lil Baby split his fanbase with FRESH, which is a better outcome than the mostly disappointed reactions to his previous effort, WHAM. That’s not even mentioning The Leak$, which was more for the die-hards than anything.

Still, Lil Baby wants to prove he hasn’t “fallen off,” and more momentum leading to success on the Billboard charts could indicate that. Maybe we get a late-performing hit and more time makes the narrative around FRESH flip completely. But for now, it seems like he will have to go back to the drawing board.

“You know, I did this song three days before the album came out,” he expressed, as caught by Akademiks TV on Instagram. “I shot the video the same day.”

Since “Janice STFU” became Drake’s biggest ICEMAN hit, this might take folks by surprise. But that’s how it goes with big album releases sometimes: the track that emerged at the last minute may just be the most resonant one of the bunch. It’s also one of the catchiest, most pop-friendly, and accessible cuts on the whole LP, while still retaining some of the project’s sharp lyricism.

“Janice STFU” is also a historically significant track for the OVO mogul, as it became his 14th number one song on Billboard. This broke Michael Jackson’s record for the most number one songs by a solo male artist.

Drake’s “Janice STFU”

However, Drake’s “Janice STFU” also faced some scrutiny as of late. Songwriter Aviel Calev Hirschfield claimed the Toronto superstar stole the lyrics and chorus melody from a demo he had sent his team, which the OVO camp immediately denied.

Not even two weeks after filing the lawsuit, though, Hirschfield retracted it. However, there’s still a door open for him to refile the suit, but fans doubt it will happen.

Elsewhere during this stream with Train, the 40-year-old heard the song “Take Care” and revealed he will probably never perform it again. This disappointed many fans, but it raised questions as to why. Maybe Drake’s beefs are the answer. After all, this is a collaboration with Rihanna, and it seems unlikely that they would be in a good place these days.

Nevertheless, this revelation about “Janice STFU” is quite shocking and impressive given how successful the song was. It also brings up interest in what the recording and songwriting process was like for the rest of ICEMAN‘s tracklist.
