According to an exclusive AllHipHop report from Grouchy Greg Watkins, the Roc Nation-affiliated attorney is suing Buzbee for defamation for $25 million. She alleges that he launched a smear campaign on the Internet that attempted to destroy her reputation and career by alleging crimes like illegally soliciting clients, obstruction of justice, intimidation, and bribes. Croft called them all baseless and malicious.

Furthermore, she claimed that this stems back to December of last year, when a former Buzbee client named Jose Maldonado sought a free evaluation from Croft concerning how Tony’s law firm handled client funds. Marcy Croft says she didn’t pursue the claims and cut contact, later theorizing that Maldonado began an entrapment strategy by going back to Tony Buzbee’s firm.

Allegedly, Buzbee accused Croft of offering former clients $10K to sue him and running an illegal lawsuit solicitation scheme. Her lawsuit claims that this was all in order to distract from Tony Buzbee’s other legal issues amid mounting pressure from current and former clients. He has reportedly not yet responded in court.

Tony Buzbee Lawsuit

According to Complex, Marcy Croft’s lawsuit against Tony Buzbee appeared in Texas federal court on Wednesday (December 17). She filed a similar suit against him in Mississippi in March, and Buzbee spoke to the publication about all this chaos.

“She filed a case against me months ago, but only after I sued her in Texas for her illegal activities,” he reportedly remarked. “Her frivolous case filed against me [in Mississippi] was dismissed. My case against her is still pending. She tried to get it dismissed but failed. A Houston judge already looked at my claims against her and acknowledged that her frivolous case is her attempt to spin the press. She is a classic bottom feeder. I would describe her as everything that’s wrong with the legal profession. I intend to put her out of business.”

For those unaware, TDE’s head of security 2Teez denied previous claims that The Game wanted to sign Kendrick Lamar. The Compton artist doubled down on these with the Back On Figg hosts.

“I let 2Teez stay with me for five years in the beginning of my career,” he remarked. “I don’t got no issues with n***as until they got an issue with me, I don’t know what blood’s issue is. But whatever… As far as TDE, ask Top Dawg, bro, what it is with me and what it was. You got to ask Kendrick. Let these n***as talk. How the f**k can a n***a tell me what I wanted to do? […] I didn’t say I signed Kendrick or had a chance to sign Kendrick… Top Dawg was like, ‘Nah, I can’t let that n***a go.’ […] Kendrick damn near the only n***a I thought about signing… I brought Jay Rock and Kendrick on tour. Anybody that says that I wasn’t instrumental or that I didn’t put out a helping hand to help n***as is a straight lying sucker-a** n***a.”

The Game & Kendrick Lamar’s “Pop Out”

As caught by Certified Boogeyman on Twitter, Jay Rock seemingly responded to The Game’s Kendrick Lamar comments with a GIF of a very ugly face. 2Teez also commented “Peekaboo,” further poking fun at Jayceon Taylor. Still, these remarks are quite vague, so take them with a grain of salt.

Elsewhere, the podcast discussed The Game’s absence from Kendrick Lamar’s “Pop Out.” He said that he didn’t want to go due to gang conflicts, but still stands on him being cool with both Kendrick and Drake.

Amid other theories about Kendrick Lamar and The Game, we’ll see if anything legitimate comes out of this. For now, it’s still a “he said, she said” game, albeit an interesting one.

“YES I WANT EVERY KID TO MAKE IT OUT THE STREETS. THATS WHAT WE ALL WANT. BUT IM NEVER SAYING ‘F**K THE STREETS,'” Badazz continued. “THEY RESPONSIBLE FOR OUR SUCCESS!! DONT FORGET EVERY SUCCESSFUL INDEPENDENT RECORD LABEL STARTED FROM WHERE ‘THE STREETS.’ ALL YO MUSIC CAME FROM THE STREETS. YO BABY MOMA U MET HER N THE STREETS. SO IF ITS F**K THE STREETS DONT RAP ABOUT THEM SIMPLE IS THAT. SHOW THE WORLD N FANS HOW GOOD OF ARTIST YALL IZ N TAKE THE STREETS ALL THE WAY OUT YALL RAP VOCABULARY!!”

Charleston White’s Rap Beef

As for Charleston White, he had a more scathing critique against Young Thug and 21 Savage’s efforts. “Stand on that s**t, n***a,” he expressed online, as caught by The Neighborhood Talk on Instagram. “You n***as talked all that s**t, killed people, white boy thumped you n***as upside the head, you n***as got probation… And now you n***as hollering, ‘F**k the streets’? No. F**k you n***as. 21 Savage, we are not letting you n***as off the hook that easy ’cause your partners told… You n***as broke the code.”

“Go to jail, die, and get killed,” White went on. “[…] Pooh Shiesty, put that gangster s**t back on. I hate you hypocrite, fraud-a** n***as. Just six months ago, you n***as was trying to shame Gunna… Now it’s f**k the streets… F**k all you n***as hollering about ‘F**k the streets.'”

For those unaware, 21 Savage, Offset, and Quavo had a call recently promoting unity after Savage advised Thugger to forgive Gunna. We’ll see if that actually happens… In any case, ‘Set spoke on the message during an interview with V-103 caught by DJ Akademiks on Instagram.

“I feel like it’s a beautiful message to put out,” he expressed. “I feel like the unity of the city is needed. The people need to see that. That sometimes, things might not go as good at first. But we can always patch it up. And that’s what I just see for Atlanta. Patching it up and, especially for us as rap artists from Atlanta, Black men saying that, it’s very powerful. Because the message can be pushed out wrong about what we’re doing. And we’re not standing for that no more. I appreciate everybody that’s involved. It’s powerful. For our city.”

However, not everyone’s onboard with Young Thug and 21 Savage. Plenty of rappers like Honeykomb Brazy, Lil Zay Osama, BossMan Dlow, and others have spoken out against the “f**k the streets” message for a variety of reasons. They either find this stance hypocritical, inaccurate, or cowardly. But for every skeptical MC, there are people like G Herbo, YFN Lucci, Pooh Shiesty, Ralo, and Meek Mill who came through with support of their own.

21 Savage’s rejection of trauma from “the streets” became a bit of an ironic rollout for his new album WHAT HAPPENED TO THE STREETS? We’ll see how it continues to evolve in the discourse.

Also, another interesting factor in this support is Offset’s friendship with Gunna. It seems like he’s one of the only rappers, if not the only one, to support both sides here. Maybe that’s the bridge necessary to settle this.

Still, Illmatic remains both a blessing and a burden. Every Nas album released since 1994 has existed in its shadow, judged not on its own terms but against a debut widely regarded as untouchable. The endless anniversary cycles—20, 25, now 30 years—have only reinforced that fixation, occasionally surfacing a bitterness in Nas that’s understandable. Yet in 2025, there’s also something newly seductive about that era: a longing for hip-hop’s rawness in a post-algorithm, post-genre-collapse landscape where “timeless” feels like a lost language.

That longing is the backbone of Light-Years, the long-anticipated full-length collaboration between Nas and DJ Premier. Released as part of Mass Appeal’s Legend Has It series, the album arrives after a broader movement of reconnecting with hip-hop’s architects. The series has already pulled Slick Rick out of dormancy, reunited Wu-Tang pillars like Raekwon and Ghostface Killah with inspired results, and even ushered in posthumous moments from Big L, Trugoy, and Prodigy. Still, nothing carried the weight of expectation quite like Nas and Premier finally committing to a full project together.

The stakes are high for good reason. Their chemistry is foundational to East Coast rap: “NY State of Mind,” “Memory Lane,” “Represent.” Premier doesn’t just understand Nas—he helped encode his artistic DNA. Unlike Nas’s partnerships with Kanye or Hit-Boy, this collaboration isn’t about reinvention so much as excavation. And that’s both Light-Years’ greatest strength and its most limiting flaw.

Premier’s production is unapologetically rooted in a specific era. His beats rely on straightforward loops and dusty samples that feel lifted intact rather than deconstructed into something new. For crate diggers and oldheads, that’s the appeal. These beats function like museum pieces—carefully preserved, reverent, heavy with history. References to classic hip-hop records are woven throughout, nods that reward listeners fluent in liner notes and WhoSampled rabbit holes, like “Droppin’ Science” by Marley Marl feat. Craig G on “Pause Tapes” or Fat Joe and Beastie Boys references intertwining with Steve Miller Band’s “Fly Like An Eagle” on “It’s Time.” But at times, that fidelity curdles into stasis. Tracks like “Welcome to the Underground” feel less like timeless throwbacks than exercises in reenactment.

When it works, though, it really works. “Writers” is a standout, marrying Premier’s jazz-inflected grit with Nas’s deep affection for New York’s unseen architects—graffiti writers, tunnel artists, and underground tastemakers who shaped the city’s cultural fabric. The beat moves like a subway car cutting through darkness, all tension and momentum. “Madman” channels classic Gang Starr energy, complete with scratches that sound tailor-made for Guru, while still giving Nas room to maneuver.

The album’s lone guest highlight comes from AZ on “My Story Your Story,” a reunion that feels almost ceremonial. Since Illmatic, Nas and AZ have shared a rare lyrical symmetry, and here they return to the granular storytelling that made “Life’s a Bitch” immortal. It’s a reminder of how natural this world once felt—and how rarely it’s been replicated with this level of ease.

Lyrically, Nas remains committed to vivid, cinematic detail. His pen is still sharp, capable of rendering entire neighborhoods in a few bars. But there’s tension beneath the surface. His depictions of broken, disappearing New York are complicated by his own role in reshaping the city, from controversial development projects to global investments that sit uneasily alongside his street-level nostalgia. “Git Ready” is emblematic of that contradiction, juxtaposing crypto wealth with memories of dreaming about affording a bottle of Moët. It’s technically impressive, but emotionally hollow—Nas catering to crypto-bro aspirations feels like a misuse of a generational voice.

Where the album regains its footing is in Nas’s self-awareness as a performer. On “Nasty Esco Nasir,” he cycles through his past personas with tonal precision, slipping between eras like a rap Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. That shape-shifting becomes a motif. “New York State of Mind, Pt. III” doesn’t try to recreate the original so much as interrogate the city’s evolution—nightlife landmarks erased, neighborhoods sanitized, Queens residents wary of the casino bids bearing Nas’s name. “Third Childhood,” a sequel to the Stillmatic cut, positions rap veterans as the modern equivalent of legacy rock bands, arguing that hip-hop doesn’t age so much as accumulate.

Ultimately, Light-Years fulfills its mission—but that mission is narrower than decades of anticipation might suggest. This isn’t a masterclass meant to redefine either artist’s legacy. It’s an indulgent exercise in preservation, a love letter to a raw, restless New York that no longer exists in the same way. The album’s aura is unmistakably ’90s: graffiti-scarred trains, flickering streetlights, stoop conversations buzzing with tension and creativity. For listeners who lived in that moment—or mythologize it—this project will feel comforting, even necessary.

But nostalgia cuts both ways. Premier’s production, while impeccable, is rigidly committed to freezing time. And while Nas’s pen rarely falters, the album doesn’t reach the heights of Magic or King’s Disease. Instead, it occupies a parallel lane in his 2020s canon—one where honoring hip-hop’s past takes precedence over pushing it forward. That tension is the gift and the curse of Light-Years. In an era where “underground” often means something unrecognizable to its origins, Nas and DJ Premier choose memory over momentum. They remind us who built the foundation, even if they don’t expand the house. And perhaps that’s the point: ensuring that when future generations look back, they remember the trailblazers—not just the trends.

User Reviews:

HotNewHipHop users rated Nas and DJ Premier’s Light-Years 4.38 out of 5 stars based on 20 reviews. Users praised how the duo executed the album in its totality, with one user writing, “Amazing Album. Enjoyable Concepts and lyrics are always.” Another one wrote, “still sounding really good three decades later.”

Via Instagram, XXL caught footage of the New York rapper and the entertainer-turned-boxer linking up before the match. The MC actually walked Jake out with a hype performance of his track “BILLY,” and he later took to his IG Story to react to Thugger being in the crowd.

“Thank you @davidgrutman @thuggerthugger1 for coming to watch me perform,” he wrote, as caught by DJ Akademiks TV on Instagram. 6ix9ine’s beef with Young Thug is one of his main narratives these days, and it extends to various other rappers like 21 Savage, Lil Durk, YFN Lucci, and many more. At press time, it doesn’t seem like the Atlanta rapper has publicly responded.

What’s more is that Complex‘s Instagram page caught a clip of Tekashi with an ankle monitor on at the match. 6ix9ine’s going back to jail soon for violating his probation, specifically via physical assault and drug possession. He will face 90 days in prison following a long and grueling legal process, which took a backseat to a home invasion against his mother and many other narratives. At the beginning of next year, though, Tekashi’s going back to the slammer.

In addition, the ironic part of all this is that Young Thug hasn’t really said anything about him throughout all this time. However, other rappers have not been as graceful. 21 Savage implicitly called out “the rat boy” during an interview. Following this, 6ix9ine went after 21 Savage for his United Kingdom roots, his anti-“streets” campaign, and for defending Thugger.

All in all, it was a bit of a mixed night for Tekashi and his corner. Yes, Jake Paul wasn’t able to cinch a victory. But rubbing success in an opp’s face is a welcome treat for the provocateur.

Over the last decade, the singer has been arrested several times in cases that range from on-stage outbursts to nightclub altercations and felony assault charges. Most incidents faded quickly. Yet, others became flashpoints for conversations about fame and the gap between public image and private behavior.

This isn’t a roundup of headlines or speculation. These are the arrests and moments that landed on police blotters, not just blogs. Each one has documented and shaped the public’s understanding of who Trey Songz is outside the booth.

December 2025: Arrest In Manhattan Nightclub & Hookah Lounge

Read More: Trey Songz Arrested For Allegedly Assaulting Nightclub Worker

On the night of December 3, 2025, Trey Songz, real name Tremaine Neverson, was arrested in Manhattan following two separate incidents. One was at a nightclub and the other at a nearby hookah lounge. According to police reports, the R&B singer allegedly punched an employee at the club after being told it was closing. In a separate location, he was accused of causing significant property damage at the hookah lounge, breaking items valued at over $1,500.

He was taken into custody and currently faces multiple charges, including assault, criminal mischief, and aggravated harassment. After his arraignment, he was released on his own recognizance and given a court date in February to face the charges.

January 2021: A Fight At A Game

What was supposed to be a night of football turned into yet another headline.

During the AFC Championship game at Arrowhead Stadium, fans recorded a physical altercation between Trey Songz and a Kansas City police officer. The video didn’t show what started the dispute, but it captured the moment things escalated. Songz, in the stands, was struggling against an officer’s hold before allegedly swinging and putting the officer in a headlock.

Police claimed he refused to follow stadium protocols. Bystanders said the officer was aggressive from the start. By the end of it, Songz was arrested and booked for trespassing, resisting arrest, and assaulting a law enforcement officer.

He was released the next day, but the footage sparked immediate debate. Some saw an entertainer defending himself against excessive force. It was later reported that the charges against the singer were dropped.

December 2016: Chaos In Detroit

It reportedly started with sound issues, but by the end of the night, Trey Songz was in a jail cell. During a performance at Detroit’s Joe Louis Arena, Songz was allegedly told to end his set early due to a strict venue curfew. Instead of exiting the stage, accusers claimed he went off-script and tossed equipment, knocked over microphones, and hurled objects into the crowd. A police officer attempting to intervene was reportedly struck in the head with debris. A photographer was also injured.

Songz was arrested backstage and later charged with aggravated assault and assaulting a police officer, both felonies. Cell phone clips circulated fast, and by morning, his mugshot had already made the rounds.

Eventually, he struck a deal and pleaded guilty to two counts of disturbing the peace. He avoided jail time but was ordered to attend anger management classes and placed on probation.

March 2018: Hollywood House Party Allegations

This accusation was serious, and this time, it came with a felony charge. Trey Songz turned himself in to the Los Angeles Police Department in 2018 after a woman accused him of hitting and choking her at a party in the Hollywood Hills. According to the alleged victim, the altercation began after she questioned him about talking to other women at the event. She claimed he became enraged, grabbed her face, and struck her repeatedly.

Songz denied the allegations immediately and publicly, tweeting that he was being “falsely accused for someone else’s personal gain.” His legal team echoed the statement, calling the charges inflated and unsupported.

The singer was arrested and booked for felony domestic violence, but prosecutors later declined to pursue felony charges. The case was handed off to the city attorney to weigh misdemeanor options, which were ultimately dropped due to insufficient evidence.

Even with no conviction, the damage lingered. The case followed a string of high-profile accusations and placed his name in conversations that extended beyond R&B into broader discussions about industry protection and public accountability.

Allegations Without Arrests, But Not Without Impact

Not every accusation led to an arrest, but the pattern kept building. In 2022, a woman filed a $20 million lawsuit accusing Trey Songz of rape at a house party in Los Angeles. The incident allegedly occurred in 2016, but the lawsuit surfaced years later, part of a wave of civil claims against the singer rather than criminal ones.

Songz denied the allegation through his attorneys. The case was eventually dismissed due to the statute of limitations.

That wasn’t the only claim. Over the years, multiple women—including Keke Palmer, Celina Powell, Dylan Gonzalez, and Winter Blanco—have accused Songz of sexual misconduct, violence, or intimidation. In most cases, charges weren’t filed or were dropped. Still, the allegations remained in circulation.

Read More: Celebrities That Have Called Out Trey Songz

Critics began calling him the R&B singer people keep protecting. Supporters said the lack of charges meant there was no case. The conversation around Trey Songz changed. Over the course of nearly a decade, Songz’s name has become as tied to courtrooms as it is to charts. The charges haven’t all stuck, but together, they tell a story the music no longer drowns out.

He hasn’t been “canceled.” He still performs and releases music, catering to his adoring fans. But each new case pulls the past into the present, forcing people to reckon, again, with what’s been said, what’s been proven, and what keeps being allowed.

As caught by AllHipHop, the Toronto superstar had bet $200K on him to defeat Joshua, which would’ve netted Drizzy a whopping $1.64 million if Paul had won. Of course, not many in the boxing world expected him to do so. As such, for a high-stakes player like the 6ix God, his risk shouldn’t come as much surprise. Also, it’s not like he doesn’t have millions of other dollars at his disposal to wipe his gambling-afflicted tears away.

Still, we doubt Drake will change his betting ways anytime soon, because he prioritizes the love of the game over any potential rewards. Jokes about his “curse” continue to ring off, yet he never chose to slow down. At the end of the day, The Boy’s fine with losing more money than most people make in a year.

Drake Bets On Jake Paul

However, Jake Paul isn’t breaking much of a sweat over this. He revealed he got surgery for the broken jaw he left the Anthony Joshua fight with, and he challenged Canelo Alvarez to fight in just a little over a week.

As for the Stake partner who unsuccessfully bet on Paul to win, Drake’s taking a risk with his ICEMAN album. His livestreams for its rollout could’ve been technically disastrous, but it seems to have paid off for his very excited fanbase. We’re still waiting on the final one before the LP comes out, and it seems like 2026 will be the year.

Elsewhere, Drake’s also dealing with legal updates in his dismissed UMG defamation lawsuit’s appeal. Well, actually, he won’t be having to deal with them as much these days. The Court of Appeals delayed both parties’ mediation to early next year, giving everyone a substantial holiday break.

Ironically enough, though, this isn’t these two’s only betting crossover. Jake Paul lost after Drake bet on him to beat Tommy Fury, Drizzy lost his bet on Mike Tyson beating Jake, and he lost his bet on Nate Diaz to beat Paul.

For those unaware, what began as 21 Savage’s plea for a reconciliation between Young Thug and Gunna eventually led to Thugger, Meek Mill, Pooh Shiesty, and other rappers saying “f**k the streets” online. Savage took to his Instagram Story recently to address some of the backlash.

“When I say f the streets I’m talking about the part that gave me trauma and made me can’t sleep at night,” he wrote, as caught by The Shade Room on IG. “If you ain’t tired of that part you ain’t been through it!”

Before this, 6ix9ine and Blueface had dismissed 21 Savage’s remarks. “I love the streets,” the latter tweeted, as caught by The Neighborhood Talk on Instagram. “You square a** n***as should have never jumped off the curb smh.”

“Now it’s f**k the streets,” Tekashi posted on his Instagram Story. “But remember when it was ‘yo 69 we don’t care about your platinum records WE PLATINUM IN THE STREETS’ but now it’s f**k the streets.”

These responses from both provocative MCs represent a wider pushback against 21 Savage’s anti-“streets” statements. Fans opposing it are on three sides: one brings up folks like Gunna, whom other rappers left behind due to snitching allegations. If “the streets” are no more, then forgiveness, reconciliation, and accountability are in order.

Another side is happy to see these rappers leave the streets behind in favor of more “authentic” voices in their view, dismissing their loyalty to “the streets” as a whole. The final side thinks that this is all because these artists’ music isn’t hitting like it used to.

No matter what you think, it’s clear that there are a lot of contradictions, nuances, and presumptions at play. Hopefully fans champion perseverance, growth, and earnestness over perceptions of Internet authenticity, numbers games, and the like.

The post 21 Savage Clarifies His “Streets” Stance After 6ix9ine & Blueface Mock Him appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

The theory revolves around Hendrix’s “BRAZZIER” track, which contains the following lines: “I’ll f**k a rapper b***h in the whip / Write her a verse, give her a lil’ clout” and “She a nympho, benzo, b***h just hit the lotto / Put them yellow diamonds on a Black b***h, call her Mulatto [possible double entendre for Latto’s original rap name].” No Jumper included a clip on Instagram of the Atlanta femcee talking to Mariah The Scientist and Angel Reese about a time in which she allegedly got intimate with someone in a car.

Basically, the theory is that she cheated on 21 Savage with Future, and that this caused their rift. But of course, things aren’t that simple. Not only does the Sugar Honey Iced Tea artist not give enough detail about her alleged encounter to make heads or tails of it, but the lyrics in question could be about so many different people.

Also, neither she nor her public image have a monopoly on wordplay with the “-otto” rhyme scheme. Finally, Savage and Pluto’s online altercation didn’t have much context to it to begin with. And if it did, it definitely wasn’t romantic in any way. So maybe these are just general and nondescript lyrics falling out of context… Or maybe fans are onto something.

Either way, take all of this speculation with a massive grain of salt. We’ll see if any lyricist decides to speak out about this, which seems very unlikely.

For context, Latto seemingly confirmed her relationship with 21 Savage during a TMZ street interview. While they still have some plausible deniability, they can’t quite escape the years of speculation leading up to this moment.

Meanwhile, Future and 21 Savage’s Atlanta hip-hop conflicts continue to develop. Things began only with the YSL RICO case, but now, a lot of loyalties are in question. Whether or not this is another instance of that is a mystery…
