DJ Akademiks hasn’t always gotten along with the co-hosts on The Joe Budden Podcast. Of course, we are talking about the early days of the show when Rory & Mal were still on the pod. Back then, Akademiks was a co-host with Joe Budden on Everyday Struggle, and the tension with Rory & Mal was real. In fact, it continued well after the two left Joe Budden and started a podcast on their own.

Now, Budden has a large list of co-hosts that includes Ish, Ice, his engineer Parks, Marc Lamont Hill, and Mona from Don’t Call Me White Girl. If you have been watching the podcast over the past year, then you would know that Hill’s addition to the podcast has been a revelation.

The former CNN commentator has quickly become a fan-favorite. Intellectual debates about politics are dominated by Hill, and his historical knowledge about music, culture, and sports is second to none. He has become a major draw, and it has left co-hosts like Ish and Ice to fend for themselves and their screen time.

Akademiks has taken note of this and has issued a warning to Ish and Ice. While Ak has officially ended his feud with Marc Lamont Hill, he still wants to look out for Ish and Ice, who are two of his favorite members of the cast.

DJ Akademiks on Marc Lamont Hill

In the clip above, Akademiks suggests that Marc Lamont Hill is effectuating a hostile takeover of the podcast. As a result, Ak believes Ish and Ice need to step up their game and insert themselves in the conversation more.

Akademiks remarks that every time there is a new topic, it feels like Hill is the first one to speak. From there, Ice and Ish barely say anything. This is in stark contrast to when they first took over from the Rory & Mal days.

It is an interesting observation, and one that many Joe Budden Podcast listeners probably agree with. Regardless, Marc Lamont Hill remains someone who the fans want to hear from, and his addition to the podcast has been an overwhelmingly positive one.

50 Cent Hilariously Showers Diddy Hater With Cash https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/981071-50-cent-diddy-hater-cash Wed, 04 Mar 2026 15:29:49 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=981071 50 Cent has been at odds with Diddy for years now, and a recent fan interaction proves that nothing has changed.

The post 50 Cent Hilariously Showers Diddy Hater With Cash appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

It’s no secret that 50 Cent has his fair share of issues with Diddy. Following years of relentless social media trolling, he even teamed up with Netflix to create a docuseries about his legal saga. During a recent club appearance, one woman nodded to this by holding up a message on her phone. “I hate Diddy too,” it read.

The mogul took this opportunity to indicate that nothing has changed. In a clip shared by The Neighborhood Talk, he’s seen tossing a stack of cash at the woman, making it clear that they’re on the same side.

Social media users have plenty to say about the amusing clip, and are making their thoughts known in the comments section. “That smile at the end TOOK ME OUTTTTTT😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭,” one fan writes. “The way he threw that money and that smile has me holleringggg,” another claims. Someone else simply says, “Every time I see 50, I realize that I’m not hating at my full potential.”

Who Does 50 Cent Have Beef With?

Diddy is far from the only person 50 Cent has beef with, however. He’s also currently wrapped up in a heated feud with T.I. and his kids. The situation reached a boiling point last month when the Atlanta rapper accused Fif of backing out of a Verzuz battle. He said that he’d lost all respect for him as a result.

Various insults were exchanged on social media, and ultimately, T.I. went after 50 Cent on four different diss tracks. His son Domani targeted the G-Unit boss on one track of his own. His other son, King, went after him on two.

50 Cent is also currently clashing with his longtime foe Benzino, who was recently hospitalized after allegedly getting hit by a car. Fif mocked his injuries in an Instagram post, prompting a fiery response from the Source icon. “If you a man and if you really got a problem with me, then let’s fight. Let’s get it all over with, because I don’t want to keep going through this,” he said during an interview with Real Lyfe Productions. “Because somebody’s gonna get hurt for real.”

Sneako Unleashes On TMZ & Harvey Levin After Reporting On The Death Of Adin Ross’ Sister https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/981063-sneako-adin-ross-sister-tmz-harvey-levin Wed, 04 Mar 2026 15:14:11 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=981063 TMZ reported on the death of Adin Ross' sister, Madeline, and now, the entire internet appears to be coming after Harvey Levin.

The post Sneako Unleashes On TMZ & Harvey Levin After Reporting On The Death Of Adin Ross’ Sister appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

Adin Ross has been dealing with a family tragedy for over a month, and fans were unaware. Yesterday, TMZ reported that his 36-year-old sister, Madeline, had passed away. The cause of death is currently unknown.

There has been some controversy surrounding the reporting of this story. Some feel as though the report was in bad taste. Madeline was not a public figure, and nothing is really known about her. All we know is the fact that she is one of Ross’ three sisters. It is a very sad story, and one that some feel shouldn’t have been reported at all.

On Tuesday, the streaming community came out in support of Ross, all while going on a crusade against TMZ and its leader, Harvey Levin. In fact, one of the biggest proponents of this campaign was Sneako, who was live on stream last night.

Sneako Takes On Harvey Levin

As you can see in the video above, Sneako did not pull any punches. In fact, he brought up some of the alleged emails from the Epstein files. In these emails, Harvey Levin is mentioned by name as someone who can provide positive publicity. Quite simply, not the things you want said about yourself from these kinds of seedy people.

Subsequently, in the tweet below, you can see how other streamers lashed out against TMZ. People like YourRAGE and Silky also hopped on the TMZ hate train. Needless to say, streamers are out here defending Ross and his family.

There is a debate right now about whether or not TMZ actually did anything wrong. Their job is to report the news, and these kinds of things happen to be of the public’s interest. Now, you can also make the argument that because Madeline was not a public figure, her death is not something that needs to be reported.

TMZ has always reported on these topics. Adin isn’t the first, and he will not be the last. Whether or not people continue to accept this kind of reporting, is something that still very much remains to be seen.

YEEZY has unveiled a striking new campaign photographed by renowned artist Vanessa Beecroft. The images surfaced on social media showing male models wearing the brand’s latest outerwear.

These campaign photos quickly gained traction across X and Instagram generating significant buzz from fans. The shoot features models in simple studio settings against stark black backgrounds throughout the series.

They wear neutral-colored outerwear including hooded jackets, parkas, bombers, and technical raincoats in earthy tones. Classic YEEZY functional style dominates the aesthetic with minimalist designs and premium construction quality visible.

Models stand motionless in strong, statue-like poses reminiscent of living sculptures or art installations. Dramatic but clean lighting highlights the clothes’ shapes and textures without unnecessary flash or distraction.

The photography emphasizes garment silhouettes and material quality over typical fashion campaign energy and movement. These images appeared on YEEZY’s official Instagram with captions reading “YEEZY.COM PHOTO BY VANESSA BEECROFT” recently.

This could be a tease new items dropping soon on the independent YEEZY website following the Adidas split. The brand continues building anticipation through artistic visuals and limited product information strategically released online.

Vanessa Beecroft has collaborated with Kanye West and YEEZY for years on major projects. Her most famous work includes the 2015 Yeezy Season 1 show. This latest campaign shows simpler, more product-focused imagery while maintaining a signature artistic approach throughout.

New Yeezy Campaign

Vanessa Beecroft’s photography style is instantly recognizable with this stark artistic minimalism she brings. The neutral earth tones fit perfectly with YEEZY’s ongoing aesthetic of functional basics.

Black backgrounds make the outerwear silhouettes really pop without any visual distractions at all. Those statue-like poses create this gallery exhibition vibe rather than typical fashion advertising energy. The collaboration makes sense given their long history working together on major launches.

YEEZY going independent means they can fully control creative direction like this now. These photos feel more elevated and art-focused than yourtypical streetwear brand campaigns lately.

We will have to stay tuned to see what happens next for Yeezy in the coming days and weeks.

The post T.I. Reveals What He Really Thinks Of King Dissing 50 Cent’s Mom appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
During a recent appearance on The Ebro Laura Rosenberg Show, T.I. opened up about his messy feud with 50 Cent. He recalled his sons King and Domani Harris getting involved after Fif dissed their mother, Tiny, admitting that it made him proud. “The one thing that I am proud of out of all this is that the women and children in our family see that it’s a line of men that’s here against who-the-f*ck-ever,” he explained. T.I. admits, however, that there was one moment that he believes King went too far.

“I said that’s enough when I seen that damn T-shirt,” he shared. “I said, ‘Man, chill out.’ I’m big on treating people the way I want to be treated… So I don’t want to see my children doing others…” T.I. is referring to a t-shirt King wore in his “Sayless” music video. It featured a photo of 50 Cent’s late mother, Sabrina Jackson.

T.I. went on to shut down Ebro’s claim that the beef could serve as promotion for his upcoming album, Kill The King.

Why Are 50 Cent & T.I. Beefing?

“I don’t give a f**k about that, man,” he said. “I don’t give a f**k about that, bro. […] This ain’t promo, $50,000 would have got it. I could have spend $50,000 for the same level of promo.” T.I. added that he’s over the beef and that moving forward, he’ll instead be focusing on his career.

T.I. and 50 Cent have had issues with each other for years now. Their feud was reignited last month when the Atlanta rapper accused Fif of backing out of a Verzuz battle that they’d both agreed to. He claimed to have lost all respect for him as a result.

The two of them proceeded to go back and forth on social media. Eventually, T.I. decided to get in the booth, unleashing on his longtime foe in four different diss tracks.

Crip Mac Reveals Why He’s Officially Ending His Friendship With Adam22 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/981049-crip-mac-adam22-friendship Wed, 04 Mar 2026 14:36:56 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=981049 Crip Mac is synonymous with Adam22 and the No Jumper brand, but it appears as though a pretty bad falling out has been initiated.

The post Crip Mac Reveals Why He’s Officially Ending His Friendship With Adam22 appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
If you are aware of who Crip Mac is, then you probably watch a lot of No Jumper, or perhaps you heard about him through Channel 5. Whatever the case may be, there is no denying that the internet personality makes quite an impression.

For a couple of years, he was spending time in prison on a federal gun charge. During this time, the No Jumper crew was gearing up for Crip Mac’s release. It was going to be a joyous occasion, and something that would lead to a long and prosperous content partnership. At least that is what Adam22 was probably thinking.

In the end, the opposite has been true. Last night, Crip Mac went on a rant about Adam22 and declared their friendship to be over. However, it wasn’t without Adam22 trying to rectify the situation. Unfortunately, it seems as though Crip Mac has been offended, and it will take a while for him to forgive and forget.

Crip Mac Calls Out Adam22

In the clips above, you can get a better sense of the situation. Essentially, during a recent episode of No Jumper, Adam22 called up Crip’s ex, Tanea. This turned out to be a big mistake, and Crip Mac let his feelings be known. He went off on Adam and told him that they were done.

Adam made his own response on social media, noting how he tried to contact Crip Mac and have the interview wiped from the record. He recognized the error of his ways and wanted to make things right. Unfortunately, for Adam and the crew, the damage was already done.

At this stage, it remains to be seen whether or not this is a situation that can actually be rectified. While we’re sure Adam would love to get Crip Mac back on his side, it might take a while. Ex-girlfriends are always a sensitive topic, and Adam probably should have known better.

DJ Akademiks and Nipsey Hussle didn’t always see eye-to-eye. During the Everyday Struggle days, there was a time when Akademiks was supposed to interview Nip. In the end, that never happened, and Nipsey Hussle delivered some harsh words for the internet commentator.

Akademiks responded to Nip in a YouTube video that is now eight years old. Once upon a time, Akademiks still made YouTube videos filled with gifs and high-pitched commentary. Now, Akademiks gives his hot takes on stream, and the videos have taken a backseat.

Recently, Ak provided commentary on the shooting near Marathon Burger. This was a big story earlier in the week, and some fans did not appreciate Akademiks dipping his toes in this discourse.

Last night, the commentator hopped on stream, where he had some particularly harsh words for the internet. He noted that he believes some people are deifying Nipsey Hussle and that the conversation around him has gotten out of hand. He even likened it to the way people currently talk about King Von.

DJ Akademiks Rants About Nipsey Hussle

As you can see in the clip above, Akademiks calls Nipsey a “gangbanger” who lived and died as one. Overall, these are some words that will definitely grab people’s attention for all the wrong reasons. While Akademiks did acknowledge the good Nipsey did for his community, the commentator also believes that Nip’s mentality ultimately led to his own demise.

This is a controversial take from Akademiks, and one that is certainly going to create some discourse online. In fact, Akademiks is already catching some heat for his comments here. Many are noting that when Nipsey did do right by his community, Ak never posted about it.

Some also noted just how hypocritical it is for Akademiks to be saying these things while wearing a Lil Durk hoodie. Needless to say, none of this was a particularly good look for Ak.

Nipsey Hussle remains a beloved figure in not just his community, but hip-hop as a whole. Saying these kinds of things about Nip are going to come with criticism, and Akademiks is find that out this morning.

The post untitled unmastered. – Album by Kendrick Lamar appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
In 2016, Kendrick Lamar was unstoppable. He was fresh off To Pimp A Butterfly, an album that many consider to be the greatest in hip-hop’s history. On March 4th, 10 years ago today, Kendrick dropped untitled unmastered. This was a big surprise, and one that shook the music industry. It is an eight-track album full of “throwaways,” if you can even call them that. Quite frankly, Kendrick’s B-sides are better than most artists’ album cuts. Songs like “untitled 02” and “untitled 07” have become classics in their own right. It was a project that showed us how Kendrick was the best in the world at the time. Some would argue he still is the best in the world.

Release Date: March 4th, 2016

Genre: Hip-Hop

Tracklist for untitled unmastered.

  1. untitled 01
  2. untitled 02
  3. untitled 03
  4. untitled 04
  5. untitled 05
  6. untitled 06
  7. untitled 07
  8. untitled 08

Awards & Commercial Performance

untitled unmastered. was a collection of throwaway songs, and as a result, it was not up for the Grammy Awards. However, it did have an impressive commercial performance. For instance, it sold 178,000 copies in its first week and debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. Although the album is qualified for gold and platinum certifications, it has yet to be recognized. This could very well be an intentional move from Kendrick Lamar and Top Dawg Entertainment, given the fact that this album was simply a compilation and not a normal album or mixtape release.

What Did HotNewHipHop Commenters Think?

As you can imagine, the reception on HotNewHipHop was quite positive at the time. Fans were impressed with Kendrick’s ability to drop a classic album, despite the fact that these songs were “throwaways.” The comments were overwhelmingly positive, which is rare in our comments section. “The fact that people are buying into the proposal from TDE that this is an album shows how great kendrick is. THIS IS SIDE B MATERIAL and I’ll still bump this more than most other albums on my phone,” one fan wrote. “Kendricks B sides are better than every other rappers albums,” said another.
