50 Cent has a history of dragging Diddy‘s name through the mud, but his latest attack is perhaps his most explosive yet as he has accused the Bad Boy boss of orchestrating 2Pac‘s murder.
In an Instagram post on Monday (October 9), the G-Unit mogul claimed that the late rap legend’s killing was ordered by Puff, who he advised to “lawyer up.”
“Damn so pac got lined by brother love,” he wrote, referencing Diddy’s R&B moniker. “LOL Time to Lawyer up, shit might get sticky.”
50’s post included a photo of 2Pac and Suge Knight sat in the black BMW sedan the night of the deadly drive-by shooting on September......

Diddy’s son King Combs has enjoyed a great deal of success early in his career, and now he wants to elevate the catalogue that positioned him to thrive in the first place.
On Wednesday (October 4), TMZ caught up with the Hip Hop prince at LAX airport to discuss his access to the Bad Boy discography for sampling purposes.
For context, his Kodak Black collaboration “Can’t Stop Won’t Stop” borrowed from Lil’ Kim‘s “Crush On You,” and his song with Teyana Taylor, “How You Want It?” used a chop......

Kevin Gates has made a reputation for himself as a man who has no problem talking about — or even demonstrating — vulgar or disturbing acts, even if it may make others uncomfortable.
The Baton Rouge rapper did just that when he gestured for a female fan to come on stage with him during the opening night of his Only The Generals Tour in Virgina.
Gates prompted her to sit down, tilted her head back, and let out a wad of spit into her mouth. Gates’ actions caused the crowd to go berserk, and he proceeded to continue rapping while the fan processed what just took place.

Florida rapper Jackboy is being accused of sexual and physical assault by an artist affiliated with his 1804 Records label.
Lexxstasy is still listed as an 1804 artist on the label’s Instagram page. But she recently took to social media to accuse Jackboy of abusing her.
“He would beat the shit out of me, spit on me, made me sit in the shower butt-ass naked with a fan on, in a sixty-degree house,” she said on Instagram Live.
She continued, claiming that Jackboy — a former Kodak Black affiliate until the two fell out — “would make me suck dick or fuck him after he beat my ass bloody,......

Drake fans believe he’s still dissing Pusha T on his new album For All the Dogs.
The 6 God’s latest project hit streaming services early Friday morning (October 6), and listeners have already theorized that a few choice bars on “Fear of Heights” are aimed at his long-running nemesis.
In his venomous second verse, Drizzy mentions Virginia, which could be a reference to either King Push’s home state or his wife, Virginia Williams (who he previously namedropped on 2018’s “Duppy Freestyle.”)
“You n-ggas some pussy, for real/ You n-ggas some sissy, for......

2Pac’s murder case had its first major development in years when Keefe D was arrested for his involvement in the crime last week, but his legal representative failed to show up on the first day of court.
On Wednesday (October 4), the suspect (real name Duane Davis) was scheduled to appear in front of a judge for his first hearing. This would have given him a chance to respond to being charged with one count of murder with use of a deadly weapon in relation to the killing of Tupac Shakur in 1996.
The defendant’s lawyer, however, never showed up. As a result, Keefe D asked the judge for a two-week continuance, which means that......
