Charlamagne Tha God Clowns The Alleged Man Behind Akademiks TV

Alexander Cole — Sun, 14 Jun 2026 14:54:16 +0000

Charlamagne Tha God is easily one of the biggest names in the world of hip-hop media. The same can be said of his former protege, DJ Akademiks. However, these days, the two appear to be at odds with one another.

In fact, Charlamagne has been the subject of a blitz campaign from Akademiks TV. Interestingly enough, this account is not run by DJ Akademiks. Instead, an Australian man by the name of George Nguyen is in control of the page.

Throughout the last week or so, Akademiks TV has been posting various interviews and news articles about the rape allegations that Charlamagne battled decades ago. Furthermore, the account has been posting some of Charlamagne’s old comments about R. Kelly. These clips paint Charlamagne in a bad light, and it is clear that Akademiks TV has an agenda.

On the latest episode of The Brilliant Idiots Podcast, Charlamagne clapped back, claiming that Nguyen contacted him directly. He accused Nguyen of being worried about getting doxxed.

Charlamagne Tha God Speaks His Peace

Charlamagne EXPOSES AkademiksTV:

“I saw some panicking last week… Why doesn’t George want his picture out ? He thinks people are doxing him. Why would George Nguyen home get invaded ?”

“I saw some panicking last week… Why doesn’t George want his picture out? He thinks people are doxing him. Why would George Nguyen’s home get invaded?” Charlamagne asked.

Understandably, Charlamagne has had enough with Akademiks TV, and he is now clapping back. Whether the man behind the account responds remains to be seen. What we do know is that he clearly isn’t thrilled about his name and face being all over the internet.

As for DJ Akademiks, he has mostly stayed out of all of this. Instead, he has let Akademiks TV run rampant and hasn’t told him to stop. All in all, the media wars continue.

Uncle Murda Says Rick Ross Is “Making Up Excuses” After Explaining Viral Commercial Flight Pic

The past few months have been rough for Rick Ross. In the midst of him trying to reignite his feud with Drake and somehow acting as though he’s above it all at the same time, the internet wasted little opportunity to clown him when he was spotted flying commercial, like the rest of us. Considering the fortune he’s amassed throughout his career and the Boss imagery that’s often associated with his brand, it became the perfect moment for his detractors to sh*t on him.

Uncle Murda wasted very little time once the Knicks clinched the championship against the San Antonio Spurs. Wearing all of his chains and sporting a Knicks jersey and a matching hat, he immediately began pointing out Ross’ recent explanation for why he wasn’t on a private jet.

“Let’s go Knicks. Gettin’ off that jet. Black truck is waiting. Meanwhile, Officer Ricky is making up excuses, talking about his jet’s in the shop. Nah, n***a, they caught you lacking, Officer Ricky. You got caught lackin’, n***a,” he said. “Got that n***a Rick Ross explaining himself now, talking about his jet getting WiFi. Don’t start stuttering now, n***a.”

Afterward, Uncle Murda asked the driver if he saw Rick Ross plane anywhere near the airport.

Of course, this spat is the latest in the tensions between the two.

Why Was Rick Ross Flying Commercial?

Although there’s nothing wrong with flying commercial, the photo of Ross ultimately had Drake fans referencing his lyrics on “Whisper My Name,” where he raps about who he’d see flying economy if he ever flew commercial. However, Ross explained that his jet was getting Starlink hooked up so it wasn’t available to fly on his regular jet.

Ultimately, it became an opportunity for Uncle Murda to take jabs at Rick Ross. Check the clip out above.

SaVon Slater Accuses Elliott Wilson Of Owing Him $20K

Alexander Cole — Sun, 14 Jun 2026 14:12:07 +0000

Elliott Wilson is a legendary hip-hop journalist who has been doing his thing for decades. However, in recent years, he has come under fire for his approach to garnering interviews.

On numerous occasions, he has had some harsh words for artists like Drake, Kendrick Lamar, and Jay-Z, who oftentimes avoid rap publications. Some believe Wilson’s comments are sour grapes. Others see it as a genuine critique of how the biggest artists would prefer non-contentious interviews with GQ and Bobbi Althoff.

Now, Wilson is under fire for a different reason. SaVon Slater, the producer for The Joe Budden Podcast and host of blankSLATE, recently came out with some allegations against Wilson. In the video clip below, he claims the journalist owes him $20,000 for work that he did on The Elliott Wilson Experience.

SaVon Explains Why He’s Mad At Elliott Wilson

SaVon details how a project with Elliott Wilson ultimately left him on the hook for $20,000. Despite being warned beforehand, he saw it as an opportunity to expand his brand and build his portfolio. But when he realized he wasn’t going to be compensated for his work, he was… pic.twitter.com/Opys4XuyPX

As Slater explains, Wilson came to him with a proposal. Essentially, Slater would provide a studio space, a camera crew, and editing work for The Elliott Wilson Experience. Wilson said his show was backed by Roc Nation and that if all went well, they would get renewed for a third season.

At the time, Slater’s close circle felt as though he was taking on unnecessary risk. Furthermore, Slater had been warned that Wilson was allegedly known for stiffing people when it came to payment. As Slater explains, that is exactly what happened to him.

The podcast producer now finds himself frustrated, as Wilson still hasn’t paid back the $20K. He went on blankSLATE and discussed the situation, although he did so begrudgingly. Clearly, this is not something he wanted to do, but he did it anyway as a last resort.

At this time, Wilson has not responded to the allegations.

Cardi B Is Ready To Turn Up After Knicks Victory: “The Streets Is Calling Me”

Aron A. — Sun, 14 Jun 2026 13:54:02 +0000

You could feel the energy in New York City across the world right now. After the Knicks won the NBA Championship against the San Antonio Spurs, New York finally brought home the chip for the first time in 53 years. That excitement has spilled over the timeline with videos of fans celebrating across all five boroughs.

The energy was so potent that it had Cardi B leaving the house at the wee hours of the morning just to be among the people. The rapper was on Instagram, revealing that she was watching the game on her phone when the Knicks beat the Spurs 94-90. The rapper jumped out of bed and ran through her house in excitement that the Knicks won. Of course, since the rest of the city was inevitably going to be outside to celebrate, Cardi said she needed her makeup done immediately and hit the block.

Cardi B herself played a role in the momentum that New York City had going for it over the past week. While tensions have been high throughout the series, the games hosted at Madison Square Garden were particularly noticeable. Cardi performed during the halftime show at the same game that Donald Trump attended, which Cardi admitted was likely responsible for the team’s loss that evening. However, that one loss obviously didn’t prevent them from securing the Championship.

A$AP Rocky & 50 Cent Watch The Knicks Game

Other hip-hop icons that were spotted enjoying the game together were A$AP Rocky and 50 Cent. The two seemingly linked up on Rocky’s tour bus, where they shared drinks and celebrations after the Knicks took the W.

With the Knicks parade expected to take place on Thursday, it would not be surprising if we ended up seeing some VIP Knicks fans like Cardi B pull up for the occasion.

God Gotta Afro – Song by Rapsody featuring Karabo yaMorena Choir

Alexander Cole — Sun, 14 Jun 2026 13:31:15 +0000

Rapsody is one of the best MCs in the world, and with every album, she continues to prove that to be the case. On August 21, she will be blessing fans with a new album, God Gotta Afro & Gold Hoops. On Friday, the artist came through with the lead single for the project, “God Gotta Afro.” It is a song with some thumping production that pairs perfectly with Rapsody’s flow. Meanwhile, we get a temporary beat switch towards the halfway mark of the song, with the Karabo yaMorena Choir singing the hook. It’s a song packed with imagery and clever bars. Needless to say, Rapsody has us wondering if an Album of the Year candidate is on the horizon.

Release Date: June 12, 2026

Genre: Hip-Hop

Album: God Gotta Afro & Gold Hoops

Quotable Lyrics from God Gotta Afro

Beads in my hair going “Clink, clink, clink”
Pickin’ out the fro, dripping afro sheen
Rollers in my crown, crested with the bling, bling
Twelve homies by my side talkin’

Klay Thompson Allegedly Thought Megan Thee Stallion Was Too Loud, And Paranoid About Tory Lanez

Alexander Cole — Sun, 14 Jun 2026 13:23:16 +0000

Klay Thompson and Megan Thee Stallion broke up a couple of months ago, and it led to various rumors about the nature of their relationship. At the time, Meg accused Thompson of cheating and taking out his frustrations on her.

Their breakup subsequently led to days’ worth of social media discourse. Many were quick to judge Thompson, while others were quick to go after Meg. At the end of the day, no one knows what truly happened. However, there are some “inside sources” looking to offer some insight.

For instance, the Daily Mail published an article over the weekend, claiming that Thompson felt like Meg was “too ghetto.” It’s a disparaging thing to say, with Thompson allegedly claiming that Meg was too loud, and he didn’t appreciate her behavior. Furthermore, it was said that Thompson had an issue with Meg’s paranoia concerning the Tory Lanez situation.

According to the Daily Mail, a source close to Klay Thompson reveals that he allegedly complained about

“She would not shut the f**k up about [Lanez],” the source claimed. According to the report, a second source chimed in and said that a lot of this just isn’t true. The first source made it seem as though Thompson felt stuck and had been trying to break up for months. Meanwhile, the second source refutes this as being the case.

Thompson is known as a bit of an introvert, so it’s not a stretch to believe that Meg’s outgoing personality was off-putting for him. However, the racial undertones of calling someone “ghetto” in such a fashion are jarring, to say the least.

At this time, Meg and Klay have not commented on this new report.

50 Cent & A$AP Rocky Celebrate The New York Knicks’ Championship Together

Alexander Cole — Sun, 14 Jun 2026 13:05:38 +0000

A$AP Rocky and 50 Cent are two extremely proud New Yorkers. They have been repping the city since the start of their careers, and they have found themselves embedded in the city’s sports culture.

On Saturday, both men were together as the New York Knicks were looking to win the NBA title in San Antonio. They boasted a 3-1 series lead, and with the Spurs continuously blowing big leads, it felt inevitable that the Knicks would get it done.

That is exactly what happened as New York won by a score of 94-90 last night. The Spurs blew another big lead, but Jalen Brunson’s 45-point performance is what sealed the deal. Overall, this was the Knicks’ first NBA title in 53 years.

In the video clip below, you can see that Fif and Rocky were having an incredible time as the seconds ticked down. They celebrated the win in style, and it made for a nice moment.

Fif and Rocky are just a microcosm of how all New Yorkers must have felt during the big game last night. In fact, throughout last night, fans took to the streets of New York, where they celebrated like it was 1973.

While the San Antonio Spurs will get theirs eventually, it was nice to see a tortured franchise like the Knicks finally get one. Their fanbase has been starving for this, and something good had to happen eventually.

As this week progresses, we expect there to be a massive championship parade. The celebrities are going to show up and show out, which will make for some incredible scenes.

Nicki Minaj Proves She’s Still With Kenneth Petty During World Cup Visit

Alexander Cole — Sun, 14 Jun 2026 12:50:18 +0000

Nicki Minaj and her husband, Kenneth Petty, have been the subjects of internet rumors as of late. Some have made the claim that the two are no longer together. Meanwhile, others have suggested that Petty was cheating on Minaj.

Throughout this time, Nicki has mostly remained quiet on the subject. She has refused to engage in the discourse, and all things considered, that is probably for the best. After all, there is very little to gain from engaging in the rumor mill. That said, her silence did lead some to believe that the rumors might, indeed, be true.

Over the weekend, Nicki was able to put those rumors to bed, once and for all. On social media, she posted some videos of herself at the FIFA World Cup. Games have been played at SoFi Stadium, and that is exactly where she was, with Petty and Papa Bear by her side.

Needless to say, fans can stop the speculation about her personal life. It is quite clear that Minaj and Petty are together, and that is the end of that story.

Outside of her domestic life, Nicki has made quite a few headlines thanks to her support for President Donald Trump. She even appeared on stage at a Turning Point USA conference alongside Erika Kirk, the widow of Charlie Kirk.

These political leanings have garnered widespread scrutiny, and it is easy to see why. However, through all of this, Minaj has maintained that she won’t be silenced.

DON’T TRUST – Song by midwxst

Alexander Cole — Sun, 14 Jun 2026 07:30:00 +0000

midwxst is an underground artist who may very well be on the cusp of mainstream success. Soon, the artist will be dropping his new album, SOLITUDE IN SILENCE. But first, we have received a new single from the artist called “DON’T TRUST.” As one would expect from midwxst, the song comes with some melodic autotuned vocals that are bolstered by some noisy production. Maximalist, busy sounds are big in the underground meta right now, and midwxst understands this. However, he doesn’t do it in an overblown way like some of his contemporaries. It makes for an agreeable song that is fun to listen to.

Release Date: June 12, 2026

Genre: Hip-Hop

Album: SOLITUDE IN SILENCE

Quotable Lyrics from DON’T TRUST

May not trust me, but I trust you
Spend all my time waitin’ by you
If you want the world, girl, I’ll give it to you
My words are true, huh, my words are true

To this day, he continues to drop dope songs. On Friday, he gave us another one with “Real Life.” This is a song with a jazzy instrumental that helps bolster Zacari’s vocal performance. The melodies are fantastic, and overall, it’s just a great R&B track that has us wanting more.

Release Date: June 12, 2026

Genre: R&B

Quotable Lyrics from Real Life

Help me find my way
‘Cause I’m lost, ain’t got nowhere to stay

But for now, for now, this is reality
