This all stemmed from NBC News’ latest report detailing how Diddy had contraband in prison. TMZ alleged that Dudus lost his phone in a jail raid and was upset with the mogul, hence the fight.

Earlier today, Loren LoRosa revealed that Diddy’s family told her the fight never happened. Now, the Bureau of Prisons is saying the same thing. In a statement to TMZ, they would not confirm that the fight took place. Instead, they said the opposite, noting that it never happened.

“We can tell you that the story you are referring to is false and did not happen,” they explained.

TMZ Stands By Diddy Reporting

TMZ remains steadfast in their reporting, and they believe their sources were telling the truth.

“Our sources are solid on Diddy’s injury, and his transport out of Fort Dix early last Saturday morning,” TMZ wrote. “As we reported he was returned to the prison before sunrise, so whatever treatment he got was not for a life threatening injury.”

TMZ has been known for getting things right and getting things first. However, like many publications, they have also made mistakes. TMZ’s sources are under scrutiny right now, and given the statement from the Bureau of Prisons, it’s a difficult position to be in.

As for Diddy, he remains behind bars until March of 2028. Although that date could change given the fact that his release date has already changed nine times before.

Quotable Lyrics from Lil Freak

I’m on your body shot, I clock your type of timing
Do I want her? Do I want you? I’m undecided
Double homicide, I might just catch two bodies (Catch two bodies)
Ain’t gotta gas you up, I know you about it

“My artist that I birthed is like the godfather of the new contemporary rage-vamp music,” Rocky told Complex. “And he came from A$AP. He came from AWGE. He is still signed to AWGE […] then technically I’m somewhat responsible for whatever it is and whatever it turns into.”

Controversial fashion designer Ian Connor didn’t like this, and went off on Rocky. He said that Rocky has never been a good artist, and that he preyed on Carti when he was on the come up.

“Rocky Sucks At Rapping, He’s Simply (Or Was) A Tastemaker, Horrible Clothes Maker, Beautiful Clothes Wearer, Nun More Than A Glorified Model With A Very Charismatic Personality With Immaculate Manipulation Tactics. I Don’t Even Say I “Birthed” Carti and I’m The One Who Literally Begged Him To Sign Lil Bruh,” Connor wrote.

Ian Connor Has Strong Words For A$AP Rocky

When asked why Connor has so much smoke for Rocky, he claimed that the artist still owes him money. Furthermore, Connor says Rocky has outstanding contract debts.

“Besides Shear Betrayal, Buddy Ass Owes Me Alot Of Money and Won’t Settle His Contract Debts because He Thinks I’m ‘Financially Good’ When I Could Literally Be Better,” Connor added.

Connor then threw in one last jab pertaining to Rocky’s ongoing beef with Drake.

“And If We Putting It Like That Then Drake Is Rocky’s Big Homie,” Connor concluded.

Connor did not hold back when Rocky made those comments about Rocky. While other fans have also been hard on Rocky for making these claims, no one went so far with their criticism as Connor did.

Rocky has yet to respond.

Now, she is looking to drop her solo debut album, Watch Dis. The project comes out on October 23, and fans are excited. The lead singles have been solid, and there is a sense that she could have a late-year album of the year contender.

This week, Yung Miami visited V-103 in Atlanta, where she did an interview with Greg Street. During the interview, the artist was asked if a City Girls reunion with JT was in the cards. This led to a very simple one-word answer: “Inshallah.”

Yung Miami On A City Girls Reunion

For those unaware, Inshallah means “if God wills” or “God willing” in Arabic. That said, it appears as though Yung Miami is very much interested in getting the band back together with JT.

Whether or not JT feels the same way about such a reunion remains to be seen. Regardless, this is an interesting revelation for the fans, who have always wondered if City Girls would regroup.

Both artists have gone solo to varying degrees of success. Given the hit that was “Spend Dat,” it is clear that Yung Miami has a leg up right now. As for JT, she has seemingly been taking a break as of late.

With Watch Dis coming out in eight days from now, there is no doubt that all eyes are on Yung Miami. This new project means a lot to her, and it could very well determine whether or not a future solo career is sustainable.

Recently, we reported on Chrisean Rock touching up her Blueface face tattoo. Meanwhile, Blue got Chrisean’s name tatted on his back. Now, it appears as though the artist is adding to his face, with four new tattoos that can be seen below.

The first of these tattoos is Benjamin Franklin, with a 100 underneath. Subsequently, he has some gambling chips, while his chin is covered in the Mercedes-Benz Maybach logo. Lastly, he has a Bentley logo, but there is a C in the middle instead of a B.

Blueface Continues To Add Tattoos

Since these tattoos are fresh, they are considerably darker than the healed tattoos that are currently on his face. This will likely continue to be the case for a few weeks to a few months as the ink starts to shed from the outer layers of his skin.

These tattoos were all done in one session, and you have to wonder how Blueface dealt with that pain. Face tattoos are notoriously some of the most painful that you can get, as oftentimes, the needle sits right on the bone. It’s why rib tattoos are also particularly painful.

Either way, Blueface appears to be happy with his new ink. Even if the internet has a whole lot to say about these kinds of tats. Over on The Jasmine Brand, fans let him have it.

“All you can do for people is pray for them. The rest is up to them and God,” one person wrote. “As a mom this would break my heart,” wrote another.

Per All Hip Hop, federal prosecutors requested that U.S. District Judge Michael Fitzgerald that he dismiss the requests from Deandre “DeDe” Wilson and David “Browneyez” Lindsey for an acquittal or a new trial related to the charges surrounding Saviay’a “Lul Pab” Robinson’s killing. The defense tried to explain how the conviction didn’t meet the federal threshold for stalking charges to be upheld, mainly because Pab wasn’t aware that he was being followed.

Lil Durk’s Co-Defendants Fight Back Against Stalking Conviction

The feds fired back, claiming that the acts of DeDe and Browneyez can still show a pattern of conduct and “clearly falls within the scope of the statute.” Furthermore, they pointed to evidence consisting of travel records, witnesses, and phone data that they say show a plot to target Quando Rondo in Los Angeles. 

“The evidence proved the conspirators knew Bowman, Robinson, and others were inside the vehicle, and their murder plan involved using a machine gun and other firearms to indiscriminately fire at the victims’ vehicle,” the briefing reads. “This and other evidence presented at trial sufficiently established the conspirators’ intent to kill, injure, harass, or intimidate everyone inside of the vehicle, including Mr. Robinson.”

The government further pushed back against Browneyez’s issues surrounding the trial itself. His defense argued that there were issues with the jury instructions the judge provided, the inclusion of certain evidence, and having to be tried with other defendants.

He also has a title. Wale is the brand’s chief creative officer, or CCO. Footwear News reported the news on Wednesday, October 14th.

In his new role, Wale will help guide the brand’s creative direction, cultural partnerships, and growth. He said he wanted more than a paid endorsement. He wanted an ownership stake and a voice in how the company develops.

The financial details have not been disclosed. We also do not know how big his stake is. So what does CapSole do? The product is a reusable, airtight pod that holds a single pair of sneakers. A preservative cartridge pushes out the air inside, then the pod is sealed.

The idea is to slow down the damage that comes with age. That includes yellowing soles, crumbling midsoles, and glue that breaks down. The brand says lab testing showed three times less yellowing.

CapSole was founded by Darren Lee in 2019. Its site now lists Wale as an owner and CCO, and a Wale x CapSole page is already live.

Wale Becomes Co-Owner Of CapSole

This is a smart move for both of them. Wale is a longtime sneaker collector, so the partnership feels natural. CapSole gets a name that sneakerheads already know.

Preservation has become a bigger topic in the sneaker world. Many collectors own pairs that are 10, 15, or even 20 years old. Old materials can fall apart, even when the shoes were never worn.

That problem matters a lot for resellers too. A pair with yellowing or a cracked sole loses value fast. Anything that protects a grail is worth a look.

CapSole has also been getting more attention lately. The company pitched on Shark Tank, and an unaired version of that pitch was posted online earlier this year. Overall Wale said he believes in the company and now he gets to help shape its next chapter.

The match is at Spotify Camp Nou. Barcelona’s women’s team will wear the same design a day earlier, on October 24th. Overall, the jersey keeps the classic red and blue stripes. The only big change is the yellow GOLF logo on the chest. It is simple, but it stands out right away.

The jersey is only part of the collaboration. Tyler also directed a short film for the campaign, and Spotify gave him full creative control over the visuals. Check that out in the tweet below.

There is also a GOLF WANG clothing collection with Barcelona and Spotify branding. It includes a letterman jacket, a track jacket, a tracksuit, a scarf, and a water bottle. The colors are earthy with shades of brown, teal, burgundy, black, and white.

Only 1,899 limited-edition jerseys will be made, a nod to the year the club was founded. Barcelona is also offering 22 signed versions from players, and 11 signed by Tyler himself.

The collection started on October 15th through GOLF WANG stores in London, Los Angeles, New York, Tokyo, and Sydney. It is also available online and through the club’s official store.

Tyler The Creator x FC Barcelona

Tyler is the ninth artist to take over the Barcelona jersey through Spotify. Drake started the trend in 2022. Travis Scott, Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, and Olivia Rodrigo have since followed.

The Clásico shirts have turned into a major streetwear moment. Fans now wait to see which artist and brand comes next. This one feels a little different as Tyler has been a fashion voice for years through GOLF WANG.

Spotify will also host an event in Barcelona called Copa De Golf on October 24th. It will combine music, football, and fashion. Gamers are included too and the GOLF WANG kit also drops in eFootball on October 24th.

Nino Paid has been charged with felony murder, aggravated assault, and armed robbery. Meanwhile, Warhol.SS has been hit with similar charges, including criminal attempt to commit a felony.

Warhol.SS, real name Zahair Myles, reportedly turned himself in to police on September 14.
