After a debate over violent lyrics in hip-hop, Wack brought up Baldwin, whom Adam defended. To play devil’s advocate, Wack countered: “The bottom line is he’s responsible for making sure these guns are prop guns,” he said. “… Don’t no live round mysteriously show up on a set. That’s premeditated. One of your people is responsible for bringing a live round in and loading it in his firearm.”

“Literally nobody else on the face of the planet thinks that was premeditated besides you,” Adam responded. “I’m not gonna get suckered into this… You probably never thought about this until five seconds ago.”

Fans on social media have been having mixed reactions to the argument. “At first I was like but then when I thought about he’s correct it’s a movie set why would live rounds be on a set where they are pretending to shoot people. Definitely done with some intention,” one user wrote on X (formerly Twitter). Another added: “This might be the dumbest conversation ever. I never realized Wack was this dense. Or maybe this is the depths he’ll sink to in order to go viral and get a check.”

Alec Baldwin’s “Rust” Shooting

As for Alec Baldwin, he fired a live round from a revolver that he was using as a prop on set during the filming of the movie, Rust, in 2021. He was later charged with one count of involuntary manslaughter, for which he pleaded not guilty. The case was eventually dropped after a judge ruled that authorities withheld evidence from the defense regarding a set of bullets in an “intentional and deliberate” manner.

Rust eventually hit theaters in May 2025, grossing just $26,831 against a budget of $8 million. It also starred Patrick Scott McDermott, Josh Hopkins, Frances Fisher, and Travis Fimmel.

Oliver “Power” Grant served as the founder and CEO in that area. Now, the group will have to carry on without him and that’s not going to be easy. That message was effectively conveyed in the Wu-Tang’s moving tribute to their lost friend and associate posted on their Instagram.

Caught by Complex, they write, “On behalf of the Grant and WuTang Family, it is with immeasurable grief that we confirm the passing of Oliver “Power” Grant. Power transitioned on Tuesday, February 24, 2026…”

They continue, Born November 24, 1970, in Staten Island, New York, the man the world knew as “Power”—and his oldest friends knew as “Pookie”—was a proud product of the Park Hill neighborhood. From those streets, he rose to become a visionary force, a pillar of the Wu-Tang family, and a global architect of culture.

It was the honor of his life to pour his love, wisdom, and brilliance into his family and his community. His impact was singular; there will never be another to take his place.”

The Wu-Tang Clan adds, “The Grant and Wu-Tang families are profoundly thankful for the overwhelming outpouring of love and support from around the world. As we navigate this period of deep mourning, we kindly ask for continued respect and privacy for the family. We send peace and blessings upon his soul. Power will always be loved, and his legacy will forever remain. “Greatness is not what you have, but what you give.”

They conclude by sharing his wake and funeral information for anyone who wants to attend and pay their respects.

“The wake will be March 13, and the funeral will be March 14 in the New York City area. We will release exact location details closer to the service dates as we finalize securing the venues.”

Elsewhere in their post, they reveal Oliver’s cause of death. It was “a courageous and hard-fought battle with pancreatic cancer.” They add he was with mother, children, family, and closest friends in his final moments.

“The fact of the matter is, so far every single show of mine has been sold out. Packed from top to bottom! They said I wasn’t gonna commit after I gave birth, they said I wasn’t gonna take it seriously, but I take it very seriously,” she wrote. “I perform for two hours and don’t complain.. not only do I treat my shows like concerts, I treat them like parties and have a good time wit my people that why I get REAL reviews from REAL attendees whether that’s my fans, celebrities, or just people that wanna have a good time. Thank you!!”

Cardi began the tour back on February 11, with a show in Palm Desert, California. In the weeks since, she’s performed in Portland, Seattle, San Francisco, and more cities. The tour will conclude with back-to-back concerts in Atlanta in April.

Did Cardi B & Stefon Diggs Breakup?

In other news, Cardi B and Stefon Diggs have reportedly broken up. Rumors of trouble in their relationship began circulating among fans at the Super Bowl, where Cardi made an appearance during Bad Bunny’s Halftime Show. Afterward, she didn’t stick around to support Diggs for the end of the game. When it ended, the two unfollowed one another on Instagram.

She seemingly referenced the drama during a recent concert, remarking on stage: “You can’t be out here playing with a b**** like me. There’s n***** out here praying for a b**** like me. I’m too sexy to be lonely and too grown to be played with n****. Who you playin’ with mothaf****?! … None of them b*****s f*****g with me.”

Taking to X after the clip went viral, Cardi issued a clarification. She wrote: “Dear blogs, when I perform a song I always introduce the song with a lil razzle dazzle. Not everything is a shot or personal. I’m actually repeating lyrics from the songs…Relax.”

The 30-year-old points to an interview Tasha K supposedly had with her unnamed cousin wherein she allegedly pushed blatant lies about her. What was specifically said remains unclear, but Claressa was not happy at all with the sit-down.

“Respond to Tasha K’s bald-headed a*s for what?! For what?!” Claressa says as she begins her rant. “Like, all y’all do is lie… I’ll respond to y’all when you b*tches tell the truth… Tell the truth about what’s really going on.”

She continues, “Nobody wanna tell the truth… they all want clout. And they broke! Tasha K—all she wanna do is just keep using her platform to talk about whatever is hot because she want to get some clout.”

Claressa Shields then goes for a gut punch by claiming if she doesn’t talk about her, then “she don’t get paid from that raggedy a*s YouTube channel because she owe Cardi B $4 million.”

Claressa Shields & Papoose’s Relationship

Shields is referencing the defamation lawsuit that Tasha K lost to the Bronx rapper back in 2022. The amount came to $3.9 million and last year; an agreement was made that states she must pay Cardi $1.2 million over the course of five years. She is also required to turn over financial records every quarter. Also, Tasha has to avoid making “derogatory, disparaging, or defamatory” comments about her or her family.

Claressa ends her rant by claiming that Tasha K has drastically switched up on her after expressing support for her and Papoose’s relationship.

Overall, we will have to wait and see if this devolves into a bigger mess.

But speaking of Papoose, things seem to still be going well between them. In a December interview with Justin Laboy, she hinted at wanting to marry the New York rapper. “I always said I wanted to get my husband name tatted on me. I always said that. So, me and Pap are not married yet, but we will be.”

More recently, she profusely defended the strength of her relationship with him against a hater on X.

The drama stems from a $3.9M judgment Tasha lost in her case against Cardi B. Last year, they agreed on a deal to handle the payout in installments over time. She must pay out $1.2 million over the course of five years. She is also required to turn over financial records every quarter. Additionally, Tasha has to avoid making “derogatory, disparaging, or defamatory” comments about Cardi or her family.

“Today marks the end of a multi-year-long chapter of lies, deception, and fraudulent conveyance on the part of Tasha K, her husband, and their entities,” Cardi’s lawyer, Lisa Moore, said in a statement to Rolling Stone at the time. “We are thrilled to put in place such an incredibly unprecedented and protective plan for Cardi. I assume you will see the debtor and her swill counsel selling this as a win. Trust me, for all of the reasons in the plan we insisted on to protect our client, that is not the case. We don’t believe the false tears, and we protect against them.”

In other news, the update comes as Cardi B is currently performing on her Little Miss Drama tour. She kicked off the run of shows last month. She’s already performed in Portland, Seattle, San Francisco, and more cities. On Sunday night, she took over the Mortgage Matchup Center in Phoenix.

Cardi will continue performing in North America with shows in New York City, Houston, Boston, and more before wrapping up in Atlanta on April 18. The tour comes after the release of her sophomore album, Am I the Drama?, which she dropped back in September.

As the writer shares, she reportedly wore a wire to draw out a confession that Melly is indeed innocent. That’s at least what we are to assume as the rumor is pretty vague. What the source gathered was, “The alleged plan was risky. She would wear a wire, try to draw out a confession, and in return, secure a drastically reduced sentence.”

Per the author, that’s the chatter on social media and elsewhere, so take all of this with a major grain of salt.

However, for what it’s worth, these people who are claiming this happened say that this has or will backfire on YNW Melly’s mom. Moreover, if this winds up becoming factual, the “Murder on My Mind” songwriter’s matriarch didn’t actively betray him.

She was merely tricked into thinking this would help him get a rumored 10-year sentence.

What Is The Latest On YNW Melly?

Reportedly, prosecutors are pushing for a hefty 40-year to life bid. With how tricky it’s been to acquire concrete evidence, folks spreading this development believe it’s going to give them the requisite ammunition they’ve been searching for.

Again, this is all very murky so proceed with caution as we advance towards YNW Melly’s double murder trial. Speaking of, that’s going to take place in January 2027.

Most recently, we learned that his witness tampering charges have been dropped. The state believed that Melly convinced his girlfriend not to participate in his murder trial. The ruling arrived one day before the jury selection process (January 21).

“As his newly retained legal team, it became immediately apparent to us that no crimes had occurred. Unfortunately, for 652 days while these charges were pending, the state did not reach the same conclusion until the cusp of trial,” his lawyers told Rolling Stone.

“I really don’t like to even talk about this, you know,” Mase said. “Manny Pacquiao, in his last outing, didn’t look like the Manny Pacquiao of old. So, this is not something I’m looking forward to.”

“I think once you retire, there’s a separation of the greatest period of your life, right?” he continued. “And then there’s this continuence. It’s almost like a continuance. It’s like seeing Jordan out there in 45. We know that’s not 23.”

Cam’ron agreed with Mase, adding: “I didn’t want to see the first fight. I don’t think this fight would be better than the first fight. But if Floyd, like I said, we both agreed that we don’t necessarily want to see Floyd fight. But if he’s going to fight, this isn’t one of the fights that I would want to see.”

When Are Floyd Mayweather & Manny Pacquiao Fighting?

Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao announced their rematch, last week, confirming that they will be fighting on September 19 at the Sphere in Las Vegas. They previously faced off on May 2, 2015, in an iconic bout that ended with Mayweather beating Pacquiao by unanimous decision.

The new fight will see both fighters coming out of retirement. “I already fought and beat Manny once,” Mayweather said in a statement caught by ESPN. “This time will be the same result.”

Pacquiao added: “Floyd and I gave the world what remains the biggest fight in boxing history. The fans have waited long enough — they deserve this rematch, and it will be even bigger now that it will be streamed live globally on Netflix. I want Floyd to live with the one loss on his professional record and always remember who gave it to him. As always, I dedicate this fight to my fellow Filipinos around the world and to bringing glory to the Philippines.”

Kodak’s lawyer, Bradford Cohen, told the outlet that there was no settlement in the case and the two won’t be refiling. He explained: “This lawsuit filed by Gloria Allred, might have been the dumbest, most ridiculous lawsuit I have ever read. As I said when this idiotic lawsuit was filed, they would not get a dime. This was light work for me and our L.A. office run by Zoe Aron. Luckily for them, our client decided to forgo filing a motion for his attorney fees, and let them whimper away with their tail between their legs. This should be a warning and a lesson to dopey attorneys, filing dopey lawsuits, come for our clients and we will come for you.”

In the original filing, Schaefer and Rahman listed Justin Bieber as a defendant as well, but dismissed him from the case a few months afterward. They tried to seek a $62 million judgment, but a judge shot down the figure. They attempted another request for $10.6 million, but that failed as well.

As for the shooting, it took place at an invite-only party Justin Bieber had been hosting for Super Bowl Weekend. Other celebrities in attendance included Lil Baby, Drake, and Gunna.

Kodak took a shot in the leg during the incident. Schaefer was shot above his right ankle, while Rahman was hit in his left shoulder. “I witnessed Kodak Black initiate the altercation with patrons outside of the subject location, which was the catalyst for the series of events that led to gun violence,” Rahman alleged in a filing, last year.

“He told DDG, ‘No one listens to your music, it f*cking sucks,’ to his face and they were going back and forth.” N3on then claims it’s not going to be seen in the final video because of how much swearing was exchanged. Moreover, he doesn’t know what sparked it but claims it did happen per Akademiks TV.

Later on, xQc hopped onto a Kick stream of his own where he reacted to N3on’s claim. He seemingly confirms it to be true but that it wasn’t as serious as his contemporary made it out to be. “I was firing shots at everyone in there,” he claimed. “I was just having fun with it.”

However, it seems like DDG thought much more of the situation.

Do DDG & xQc Have Beef?

Another clip is gaining traction online where the “Pink Dreads” artist dished out a sly remark. While on his own stream, the Michigan native reacts to what appears to be footage from this forthcoming MrBeast video.

The clip he’s watching is of xQc shooting a basketball, which DDG finds quite amusing. “Just the jump shot, no shoes—It’s a nice white man right here man. Just doesn’t make sense for me to be even going back and forth with this n****, man,” he says in a supposed response to the alleged trash talking from xQc.

xQc took exception to DDG’s diss, calling out the double standard if he were to make a racist joke. “Now reverse the roles though… Is my jump shot not cool enough? Am I not f*cking tough enough? If I said something something black man, I would be f*cking cancelled forever.”

He also believes DDG doesn’t understand the “streaming game” and that he’s just trying to create something entertaining for people to watch.

Overall, this seems to be a continuation of some previous issues that arose late last year. In December, xQc and another white streamer, Asmongold, accused DDG of viewbotting. The father of one believed the comments were racially charged saying, “Y’all don’t put these allegations on nobody that looks like y’all, bro… It’s always n*****s got a viewbot.”

If you’re wondering when they announced they were expecting, it all went down in late February during another one of his livestreams. While on camera, him and Nevaeh showed the results of two different pregnancy tests, with a less accurate and more reliable one having positive results.

They were both ecstatic then, with Blue hilariously congratulating Nevaeh on having a “Blueface baby.”

Additionally, he joked that she was now an official member of the “Blueface Cavaliers.” “Congratulations, you’re having a Blueface baby. Congratulations. You made it,” he joked.

We are wishing Blueface and Nevaeh the best going forward as they embark on this new journey together. Hopefully, if all goes according to plan, the hitmaker will welcome a fourth child to his clan.

The last time he helped bring new life into the world was September 2023. That year, him and Chrisean welcomed their first and only child, a son who now goes by Chrisean Jr.

He also has two kids with another one of his exes in Jaidyn Alexis. They co-parent a boy named Javaughn Jamal Porter and a girl, Journey Alexis Porter. Javaughn was born first, entering the world in 2019 while Journey arrived in 2022.
