DJ Akademiks & Summyah Get Into Heated Fight Over Escort Allegations https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/970009-dj-akademiks-summyah-heated-fight-escort-allegations-viral-news Sat, 10 Jan 2026 23:00:56 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=970009 DJ Akademiks criticized SummyahMarie for her lifestyle and her alleged or confirmed relationships with rappers like NoCap and Trippie Redd.

The post DJ Akademiks & Summyah Get Into Heated Fight Over Escort Allegations appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
DJ Akademiks controversial coverage of hip-hop-adjacent romantic drama often leads to him in hot water. But rarely does he confront his subjects head-on. During the commentator and reporter’s recent livestream, he called streamer and social media personality Summyah, also known as SummyahMarie, to argue about her recent romantic drama with confirmed former partner NoCap and, according to Ak, alleged fling Trippie Redd, whose alleged relationship is less clear.

FearBuck caught the heated on-stream argument on Twitter, but there’s not a lot of context to their phone call. Nevertheless, he claimed that she and her friends are into “escort culture,” which is why he thinks she dates folks like NoCap and Trippie. Akademiks specifically wanted to determine if she was an “escort” for the Ohio MC due to their recent Turks and Caicos vacation together.

The female streamer denied these claims, explaining that he invited multiple women and that he invited her specifically to stream together. Still, Ak pushed back and said that even non-sexual intentions that Trippie Redd might have verbally expressed don’t exclude Summyah from “escort culture.” He feels like she benefits from free trips, gifts, and luxuries in exchange for intimate favors, a notion she denied and condemned outright.

DJ Akademiks’ Fight With Summyah

Marie denied having relations with Trippie and said DJ Akademiks is fixated on this narrative. She doesn’t care about NoCap’s shade towards Trippie Redd over her. Still, Akademiks fired back on Summyah’s points, calling her framing disingenuous and criticizing her attacks on what folks perceive about her relationships. Ak said this isn’t to get her to stop and is just commenting on the lifestyle, whereas she denied the notion that she’s “hopping from rapper to rapper.”

Overall, it was a very heated argument, and it only got worse from there. DJ Akademiks said the people that Summyah allegedly interacts with romantically don’t respect her. Marie told Akademiks to be more positive with his coverage instead of chasing drama and putting other people down.

At the end of the day, Ak thinks SummyahMarie is not being honest about these relationships and is lashing out unfairly. She denied any sort of sexual relationship or other arrangement with Trippie Redd, defending his unencumbered choice to celebrate ahead of his upcoming album.

Celina Powell Makes More Wild Allegations About Offset & Stefon Diggs https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/970005-celina-powell-wild-allegations-offset-stefon-diggs-hip-hop-news Sat, 10 Jan 2026 22:11:06 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=970005 Celina Powell alleged Offset's broke and has a restraining order from Cardi B, and she alleged Stefon Diggs was angry at his child's birth.

]]>
Offset and Stefon Diggs are dealing with a lot these days, so they might not have time or energy to respond to Celina Powell’s allegations about them. For those unaware, she’s been going at the former a lot recently, starting with a video of him allegedly sleeping next to her and continuing with threat allegations over a $15K debt he allegedly owes her.

Powell’s most recent claims appear on her 2 Girls From Mars podcast with Milian Milliee, and The Neighborhood Talk caught them on Instagram. They all stem from her alleged conversations with the former Migo.

Specifically, the social media personality alleged that Cardi B has a restraining order against her ex partner, and that he’s not allowed to talk to their children. He’s allegedly been speaking to their daughter Kulture through his other daughter from another mother.

Also, Celina Powell alleged that Offset told her that he had “only” $13 million in his bank account. She also alleged that Quality Control’s P told ‘Set to pay him $10 million to get out of his record label contract, and that the Georgia MC owes $2 million in taxes to the IRS and planned to file for bankruptcy.

As caught by TNT on IG, Powell also alleged that Stefon Diggs was angry at the hospital when Cardi B gave birth to their son. He was allegedly only there for a few hours. Diggs allegedly did not like how the child’s name on the birth certificate had to be Cardi’s or her ex partner’s due to them not finalizing their divorce yet. Celina alleged that the NFL player “abandoned” the Bronx femcee for three days, and that “they’re not even good.”

Celina Powell’s Offset & Stefon Diggs Claims

Previously, Celina Powell brought up Offset and Stefon Diggs and alleged that the former once threatened the latter during a FaceTime call with her. Neither have publicly responded to these allegations at press time.

We will see if the buck stops here with Powell or if she has more allegations to fire off online. It’s been a big scandal so far, but we’ll see if it grows any more legs moving forward.

Drake Seems To Clown Rory Online And Prompts Hilarious Response https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/969980-drake-clowns-rory-online-hilarious-response-hip-hop-news Sat, 10 Jan 2026 21:39:37 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=969980 Rory and Mal have had a lot of Drake takes in the past, although it's unclear what prompted this cheeky troll from the 6ix God.

The post Drake Seems To Clown Rory Online And Prompts Hilarious Response appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
Drake is known for being quite the troll on social media sometimes, even against folks like Rory Farrell who don’t really have much of a problem with him. Nevertheless, the New Rory & Mal podcast cohost might have received a jab from him on his Instagram Story recently, although it might be more out of love than hate.

As caught by talktomelikeimpablo on Twitter, the 6ix God posted a picture from a Rory photoshoot yesterday (Friday, January 9) where he’s holding a basketball. There’s not much context here, but it seems like Farrell took it in stride. @TheEngineer4K on Twitter caught how he posted even more pictures from this photoshoot on his IG Story, so it seems like it’s all fun and games.

Rory and Mal’s previous Drake takes have been very positive from the latter and understanding from the former. So there isn’t the context of criticism that, say, folks like Joe Budden have when he and Drizzy pop up together.

However, this might be responding to Mal’s rumor that there would be a surprise album this week. He said that he referred to the new Bruno Mars announcement, but many fans immediately brought up the Toronto superstar and J. Cole. In any case, Drake’s new album ICEMAN is still cooking.

Do Drake & Rory Have Beef?

In case you still have questions, these two don’t have any beef publicly and haven’t been at odds pretty much ever. That being said, Rory has beef with one of Drake’s friends. DJ Akademiks went off on Farrell last year amid the latter’s controversy over resurfaced tweets that many saw as offensive to Black people.

Akademiks accused Rory of dropping off a message to him at his home while Ak’s mother was there. Also, he posted photos of the podcaster and his child in public, doubling down on their nasty feud.

Farrell didn’t really respond to this publicly. Nevertheless, even if he does have issues with Akademiks, this hasn’t led to any animosity with Drake. So this Instagram Story post is most likely just an innocent troll. Other targets of the OVO mogul on the Internet are not su lucky.

Boosie Badazz has been through a lot of legal trouble in his career. But fortunately, his most recent obstacle will not land him in prison. Badazz recently received a time served sentence in his federal gun case, and must pay a $50K fine plus complete 300 community service hours.

“I’m blessed to have my freedom,” the Baton Rouge rapper expressed in a video caught by The Neighborhood Talk on Instagram. “It’s time to turn up now.

]]>
When unidentified suspects shot at streamer Konvy during his and his friends’ livestream in a car in the Bronx last night (Friday, January 9), many folks immediately assumed the worst. The feed cut out seconds after the shooting happened, which made many fans worry. However, he recently took to his Twitter account to speak out after the situation.

“I wanna thank God for keeping us protected thru out the whole situation,” the Kick streamer wrote today (Saturday, January 10). “my friend got grazed but he is good and stable, i appreciate all the people checking up im tryna get back to everyone.”

For those unaware, Adin Ross previously revealed that Konvy’s friend JJ was injured in the shooting, and that authorities took him to the hospital. Fortunately, it seems like he’s okay and that no one else suffered any injuries. We still don’t have any police reports on the matter that shed light on more information.

We will see how folks continue to respond to this. For those unaware, Adin is a very good friend of Konvy’s who also spoke on another recent on-air livestream incident on Kick. That would be Clavicular’s stream sniper incident, in which he reportedly ran over a man who was harassing him.

Who Is Konvy?

For those unaware, Konvy is a Kick streamer and content creator known for his gaming content, his IRL livestreams, and his associations with rappers. He was hosting a livestream in The Bronx when folks shot at him in a car.

Konvy’s shooting was controversial for other reasons. Amid some heavy social media beef that Adin Ross has with Bronx rapper Lil Tjay, Tjay allegedly mocked the shooting via various alleged social media posts.

Mdot 59 Speaks On Konvy

Also, more alleged information about this shooting emerged from unexpected corners. Mdot 59 is a local drill rapper who was reportedly on stream with Konvy before the shooting. He said online that folks shot at the streamer after he stayed in their area in The Bronx after their stream. Mdot also accused the perpetrators of just looking for clout, condemning the situation as a whole. We will see if anyone else chimes in.

keeno, KonvyAlerts, and dotty caught Mdot 59’s live remarks on the Konvy situation on Twitter.

Habibi – Song by DDG & Blueface https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/969992-habibi-ddg-blueface Sat, 10 Jan 2026 19:38:03 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=969992 DDG and Blueface have been tight for years now, so it's no wonder they have a lot of music together in the vault.

The post Habibi – Song by DDG & Blueface appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
DDG is one of the most successful content creators-turned-rappers, and his new single with Blueface fits right into his catalog so far. “Habibi” is a pretty charismatic and easy-going trap-flavored cut with a slightly different melodic flow from the California rapper in comparison to his more gruff and fast style. As for the Michigan MC, he employs relaxing flows and vocal deliveries to coast through. It’s not the most out-of-the-box track from either artist, but it shows they still have some collaborative chemistry. They probably have a lot more in the vault together, so we’ll see what their next musical steps are.

Release Date: January 9, 2026

Genre: Hip-Hop

Album: N/A

Quotable Lyrics from Habibi

I been on my s**t, I feel like him,
I been on the road, I can’t wait for you, I’m not Tems,
Bitcoin on the floor last night, I think I lost an M,
I be around the h*es, that’s just my friend, I’m not no pimp

A$AP Rocky Announces New “Don’t Be Dumb” Single “Helicopter” Dropping Soon https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/969988-asap-rocky-new-dont-be-dumb-single-helicopter-hip-hop-news Sat, 10 Jan 2026 19:27:38 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=969988 "Helicopter" will follow A$AP Rocky's previous single for his new album "Don't Be Dumb," the alt-rock jam "Punk Rocky."

The post A$AP Rocky Announces New “Don’t Be Dumb” Single “Helicopter” Dropping Soon appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
A$AP Rocky is set to drop his new album Don’t Be Dumb in just under a week, and we will get one more preview of its sound before we fully dive in. Via Instagram and his other social media platforms, he announced he’s dropping his new single “Helicopter” very soon. It will come out on Monday (January 12).

Considering how fans seemed to really like Rocky’s previous DBD single “Punk Rocky,” they are very excited to get another teaser track for the LP. We got the cover art as well as a long snippet of the track, which sounds like another trap-flavored banger.

“DUMBEST VIDEO OF THE F***IN YEAR!!!” the Harlem creative captioned his teaser. “PLAY DUMB GAMES , WIN DUMB PRIZES!!! HELICOPTER THIS MONDAY!” He had similar praise for his “Punk Rocky” music video, which was very fun. We’ll see if this new one shapes up…

As for what we see in the music video’s teaser clip, it’s unsurprisingly a lot of helicopter footage in a VHS aesthetic along with some muffled music. More specifically, it shows off the A$AP MC’s use of a helicopter for a recent Rolling Loud set.

There’s also online speculation that Playboi Carti will appear on “Helicopter.” At the end of the day, a lot of this is speculative from fans, so we’ll have to wait for the full single and music video on Monday.

When Is A$AP Rocky Dropping Don’t Be Dumb?

A$AP Rocky’s long-awaited new album Don’t Be Dumb comes out this Friday (January 16), and fans can’t wait to finally hear it. It’s been years since his last album TESTING, and this rollout already experienced multiple delays, push-backs, unfulfilled teases, and a whole lot of anticipation.

We will see what A$AP Rocky will finally do with this project, which seems to be another genre-fusing and ambitious release from him. He’s very excited to finally share it with the world, and “Punk Rocky” will get a little more momentum.

These two singles and music videos already seem very distinct from one another, which bodes well for the album’s versatility. The visuals for “Helicopter” have a different director, that being Dan Streit.

Drake’s New Stake Ad Suggests He’s Unbothered By Civil RICO Lawsuit https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/969983-drake-new-stake-ad-unbothered-civil-rico-lawsuit-hip-hop-news Sat, 10 Jan 2026 18:00:36 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=969983 The civil RICO lawsuit against Drake, Stake, Adin Ross, and George Nguyen is the third class action suit against Drizzy, Stake, and Ross.

The post Drake’s New Stake Ad Suggests He’s Unbothered By Civil RICO Lawsuit appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

Drake is still in the lab cooking up his new album ICEMAN, but he has other things to look forward to in 2026. One of them is his continued relationship with the cryptocurrency-based online casino Stake, despite a recent civil class action RICO lawsuit against them publicly putting their partnership under scrutiny.

Nevertheless, the 6ix God took to his Instagram page yesterday (Friday, January 9) to share a new ad for the platform. His caption is pretty vague, but some fans interpreted it as an acknowledgement of the drama or a reference to his wins and losses on Stake.

“One more year with @stake what will 2026 hold cause 2025 was kind of a mazzzzzzaaaaa,” the Toronto superstar captioned the post. The post featured various clips from his livestreams with BenDaDonnn and Adin Ross, as well as a “67” occurrence, big wins, other jokes, cooking up music with Gordo, and gameplay footage. Hilariously enough, the ad also featured the video of Drizzy trying to get a drone away from a penthouse he was staying at. The comments flooded with fans hyping up the post, asking for ICEMAN, and referencing the lawsuit.

What Is Drake & Stake’s Civil RICO Lawsuit About?

For those unaware, Drake and Stake’s civil RICO class action lawsuit (with no criminal implications) accuses him of using profits from the platform’s “tipping” feature to covertly fund commercial manipulation of his streaming numbers. The suit also names Adin Ross and George Nguyen, who allegedly facilitated these alleged transactions, as codefendants.

More broadly, this class action lawsuit is the third against the OVO boss, Ross, and Stake specifically. The allegations against them claim that they circumvented United States anti-gambling laws in certain states, falsely promoted their brand and product, and led users to engage in an illegal gambling operation.

Stake’s cofounder scoffed at this Drake-implicating lawsuit, while Adin and The Boy himself haven’t really publicly responded to this most recent lawsuit. However, this new Stake ad on Instagram suggests that the latter isn’t really breaking a sweat over it.

We will see how that controversial legal move develops in court. In the meantime, Aubrey Graham has a lot more to focus on for this year.
