If you were watching, then you would know that Supa Hot Fire won thanks to a second-round stoppage. However, Supa Hot Fire didn’t do anything in the first round. He refused to throw a punch and simply danced around the ring. Ray J subsequently accused the fight of being rigged.

On his stream, Adin Ross revealed that the fight will be investigated, because Ray J has a point.

“Ray J obviously what he said after the fight… Supahot not throwing a fucking punch like in the first round, we need to look into that,” Ross said. “We need to investigate that.”

Adin Ross Looks To Make Things Right

Ross went on to say that Supa Hot Fire has been a sensational fighter so far. That said, the first round did appear suspicious, and Ray J has a right to be upset and to question things.

“Supahot has been nothing but a great fighter,” he continued. “Supa looked like himself in the second round. Now do I know why Ray J said what he said? No I don’t. … We’re taking that shit very seriously. It looked weird bro.”

Whether or not Brand Risk comes to any conclusions on the matter is something that very much remains to be seen. Ultimately, when betting companies like “Rainbet” are involved, questions are going to arise. People are going to be skeptical, and Ross is going to have to weather that storm.

Perhaps in the future, the streamer will need to reevaluate who he goes into business with, especially if it puts his fights into question.

“Not enough big girls w they whole stomach out fa meeee,” the caption read. The singer wore a magenta bikini, a scarf around her head, and matched the look with earrings, a necklace, and a bracelet.

Lizzo’s talked a lot about body positivity before, previously calling out changing standards for plus-sized women. In a Substack essay titled “Why is everybody losing weight and what do we do? Sincerely, a person who’s lost weight,” she warned how weight-loss drugs are leaving these women behind.

“Once something becomes for everyone, the people it was created for are edged out,” the 38-year-old wrote. She spoke on her own personal journey, indicating her weight loss is more about wellness than appearance. Hopefully more discussions about these topics continue to center the women who go through these questions, debates, and criticisms rather than folks policing body image and encouraging restrictive standards.

Lizzo’s Bikini Pics

Elsewhere, though, Lizzo is reflecting on her industry peers beyond questions of body image. On Joel Madden’s Artist Friendly podcast, she spoke on the erroneous notion that all celebrity collaborators are good friends.

“Even people who have songs together, people think they’re besties,” the Detroit native remarked. “It’s like, no. I like them as an artist, I respect their music and we collabed. But like, I sent them files. They recorded it and sent it back to me… I don’t really have many people who [I can] talk to about this sort of thing. I talk to SZA, I love her. She’s one of the only few people… But like, she’s the only person that I can call and be like, ‘Okay b***h,’ and she’s like, ‘Okay.'”

Amid Lizzo’s new music, we’ll see what else she has to say about these topics. She has been the subject of a lot of body conversations, but she’s making where she stands clear.

Over the weekend, Ross had one of his biggest Brand Risk events to date. Supa Hot Fire fought against Ray J, while Lance Stephenson took on Michael Beasley. There was even a fight between Johnny Manziel and Bob Menery.

During the press conference for this event, Ross was asked about whether or not Drake would ever get in the ring. More specifically, he was asked if Drake could defeat Kendrick Lamar in a boxing match.

Ross practically scoffed at the question, claiming that Drizzy would “beat the f*ck” out of Kendrick. We will probably never know.

Adin Ross Gives His Take On Drake vs. Kendrick

Following the event, Adin Ross was on stream where he revealed that Drake is gearing up to be a co-owner of Brand Risk. Quite frankly, this makes a ton of sense. Drake is in business with Kick and Stake. Meanwhile, these are two brands that Ross helped popularize. It only makes sense that Drizzy would tap in, especially now that Brand Risk is bringing in bigger celebrity fighters.

A good example of this was Manziel’s inclusion in Saturday night’s show. Drake and Manziel are good friends, and we can imagine Drizzy vouching for Ross’ new boxing promotion.

Whether or not Brand Risk is able to up the ante with their next show still remains to be seen. However, after the Ray J fight from this weekend, it is clear that they have achieved some positive momentum.

Per the outlet, a trial date of May 3, 2027 is what is on track in court. Sean Combs, Bad Boy Entertainment LLC, and his CeOpco LLC corporate entity appear as codefendants. His lawyers reportedly expressed concern for the trial’s scheduling due to his current and projected April 15, 2028 release date. If this goes all the way to a civil jury trial, it could be the third time the Bad Boy mogul does so.

That’s because his federal case’s conclusion was followed by Diddy’s demand for a jury trial concerning the lawsuit against him from Clayton Howard. The former escort sued for $20 million over allegations that Combs and Cassie abused him and mistreated him for “freak-off” parties. In addition, Puff is appealing his conviction over Mann Act violations.

Bryana Bongolan’s Diddy Allegations

For those unaware, creative director Bryana Bongolan’s accusations against Diddy are that he dangled her over a 17th-floor balcony in Los Angeles, specifically in September of 2016 at Cassie’s apartment. Per the lawsuit, he allegedly held her for up to 15 seconds before throwing her back on the patio.

Bongolan claimed the assault caused bruises, back pain, neck pain, and years-long trauma. Her testimony at Sean Combs’ federal criminal trial included claims about her constantly waking up screaming in her sleep due to the trauma. Bongolan also invoked her Fifth Amendment rights before the testimony, leading to the judge’s immunity order.

The defense team accused her of being a heavy drug user who was under the influence during the alleged incident, allegations she denied.

We will see what comes of this potential civil trial and the other legal matters on Diddy’s plate. He could have many more loose ends to respond to when he gets out of jail, or during his stay.

It was reported that Gucci Mane spoke to the local police; however, he has not cooperated with federal authorities. Despite this, there are some fans and detractors who are looking to label the legendary artist as a “rat.” He has been called that in public, and the hip-hop commentator space has been filled with various snitching debates.

However, the internet and real life are two very different places. Case in point, Gucci Mane was performing at Birthday Bash ATL 2026 over the weekend. Numerous Atlanta legends participated in the event, including Gucci. As you will see in the footage below, he received a huge crowd response and was shown a ton of love, all things considered.

Gucci Mane Performs In Atlanta

T.I., 2 Chainz, Soulja Boy, and Waka Flocka Flame were among some of the names in attendance for the event. It just goes to show that despite the headlines, Gucci Mane is still one of the biggest names in Atlanta’s historic rap scene.

Furthermore, this all just goes to show that most hardcore fans look beyond the noise. They simply want to listen to the music and let the performances wash over them.

As for the Pooh Shiesty case, a trial date of July 6 has been tentatively set. Evidence still needs to be presented, and for now, there is a lot of uncertainty surrounding Gucci Mane’s willingness to testify.

Either way, this is a developing story that we will be keeping tabs on.

His rollout for ICEMAN was a joy to watch, especially towards the end. No one could have expected that he would turn around and give fans three whole albums. With these releases came the anticipation that Drake could break multiple Billboard records. For instance, he had the opportunity to become the first artist to debut with the top three albums on the Billboard 200.

On Sunday, that is exactly what happened. ICEMAN, HABIBTI, and MAID OF HONOUR made their way to the Top Three. This shattered the record while also giving Drake a leg up on some of his peers. For instance, he now has the most number one albums by a male solo artist. This puts him ahead of Jay-Z. From there, he tied Taylor Swift for the most number ones as a solo artist ever.

Drake Does It Again

Additionally, Drake is now the first rapper with fifteen number-one albums. Overall, this is a sensational achievement that speaks to everything he has been able to accomplish over the years. While some have doubted the artist, others have continued to support him.

ICEMAN finished with 465K first week sales, which is certainly a spectacular achievement in this current climate. Not to mention, fans divided their attention over three albums. If you combine the numbers from all three albums, you are much closer to 700K.

Whether or not these albums stay in the top three remains to be seen. The album with the best shot of staying in rotation is ICEMAN.

The camp-out format brings back something that has largely disappeared from sneaker culture. Most major releases now run through apps and online raffles. Shoe Palace is offering a different option for people who want to be there in person for a shoe this significant.

The “Toro Bravo” nickname translates to “brave bull” in Spanish. The colorway borrows directly from the Chicago Bulls home uniform and channels it into one of the most all-in red constructions Jordan Brand has ever put on a Jordan 4.

The shoe originally released in 2013 and was an instant sellout. This 2026 drop marks its first retro in thirteen years. That gap is exactly why people are willing to show up with chairs and spend a night on the sidewalk outside Shoe Palace Little Tokyo.

The shoe features a bold fire red suede upper with sharp black accents and cement grey detailing throughout. It is a straightforward shoe with a strong presence. The camp-out energy around it makes sense.

Air Jordan 4 “Toro Bravo”

Shoe Palace Little Tokyo has established itself as one of the more event-driven sneaker destinations in Los Angeles. The Camp-Out Culture format fits the location well. It draws the kind of collector who prefers the experience of a release over the convenience of an app.

The “Toro Bravo” was an immediate sellout when it first released in 2013. Thirteen years between releases only adds to the demand.

The 2026 version stays faithful to the original design. The red leather appears slightly more muted than the 2013 original, and the silhouette reflects Jordan Brand’s current Air Jordan 4 construction.

Sneaker Bar Detroit reports that the J Balvin x Air Jordan 4 “Multicolor” is set to release September 25th, 2026.

Images of the shoe first appeared after Balvin wore them during his Ciudad Primavera homecoming concert in Medellin, Colombia. At the time it was unclear whether the shoe was an official collaboration or a custom project.

DJ Khaled confirmed the collaboration when he shared a closer on-feet look and revealed that Balvin had hand-delivered a pair to him personally.

The shoe features pale yellow, golden yellow, green, pink, blue, brown, and black across the upper. Nike Air branding lands on the left heel and J Balvin’s upside-down face logo appears on the right heel tab, both done in metallic silver.

The retail release will be the multicolor version that Balvin debuted on stage, not a previously rumored all-yellow “Lemonade” edition. That cleared up a lot of confusion that had been circulating for months.

The design feels more controlled than his Air Jordan 1 collaboration, even with the number of colors involved. On foot it reads differently than it does in flat images. Balvin’s collaborations tend to work that way.

J Balvin x Air Jordan 4 “Multicolor”

J Balvin has built a consistent design language across all of his Jordan Brand collaborations. Each one pulls from color stories tied to his Colombian roots. The Air Jordan 4 “Multicolor” continues that same approach on a bigger stage.

The choice of the Air Jordan 4 as the next canvas makes sense. It is one of the most flexible Jordan silhouettes in terms of material and color blocking. The paneled construction gives a designer more options to work with than most other Jordan models.

The shoe features a pre-distressed midsole with marble-like details and a mini Swoosh logo. Those small details add depth that photographs do not fully capture.
