DDG and Joe Budden are beefing, but the real winner is the internet at the stunt kings drag each other about who is less relevant.

After announcing his split from Halle Bailey via a social media statement that no one asked for, the YouTube personality has been busy responding to comments and shutting down rumors about their relationship. Though the internet has been dragging him for days, it seems that DDG reached his breaking point when Joe Budden mentioned their breakup during a recent episode of his podcast.

“Ion be trippin bout the girls sayin sh*t cuz I’m used to it. It’s all love. But u n****s wit platforms gon get a response fasho,” he said in a post to X.

His comments came after a clip began to circulate of Budden accusing him of being a clout chaser and only being relevant because of his attachment to his talented ex-girlfriend.

“Every time I see his name, it’s attached to hers, and it’s typically in some clout chaser fashion. So that makes me look at him a different way, and hopefully, I get to look at him a lot less now that they’ve broken up,” Budden said during the episode.

DDG clapped back with a series of tweets, including a side-by-side comparison of Budden’s most popular tune’s RIAA status and that of his own singles.

“‘Pump It Up’ went gold after 20 years u old b***h. @Joe Budden I’m on u, ” he said in response.

He continued his verbal bashing with an Instagram story post of “Pump It Up” with his own real-time music review.

“ngl gang this s*** a** LMFAO @joebudden.”

Chile. In the meantime, Halle has not confirmed or denied the split nor has she made any comments about the surrounding conversations. She was also not tagged in the “breakup announcement” posted by her chaotic coparent. Let’s just hope our girl is finally free from the mess.

Donald Glover revealed that he has canceled the US, Europe and UK legs of his New World Tour amid a health scare.

After canceling his August 24 show in Arizona due to technical issues, Glover later also canceled his Sept 8. show in Houston for medical reasons. The day after, he took to X, formerly Twitter, to reveal that the North American dates tour would be postponed.

“hey everyone. unfortunately i have to postpone the rest of the north american tour to focus on my physical health for a few weeks. hold onto your tickets,” he said. “ALL tickets will be honored for the upcoming dates in north america when they are rescheduled. thanks for the privacy. thanks for the support. thanks for the love.”

On Oct. 4, the “3004” rapper revealed that he would be canceling his tour entirely due to a health issue he discovered after his New Orleans show.

“After my show in New Orleans, I went to the hospital in Houston to make sure of an ailment that had become apparent,” he explained. “After being assesed, it became clear i would not perform that night, and after more tests, i could not perform the rest of the US tour in the time asked. As of now I have surgery scheduled and need time out to heal.”

My path to recovery is something I need to confront seriously. With that said, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the remainder of the North American tour and the UK and European dates. Tickets will be refunded at point of purchase.

Though he did offer information on what caused the cancellation, he did ask fans for “love, privacy, and support.”

Fans of Glover and his rap identity Childish Gambino were elated to see him return to music after dominating the small screen with his award-winning show Atlanta.

We all see Method Man takes care of his physical health, but he recently opened up about his mental health and struggles with depression on Fat Joe Talks: “It never really goes away,” he said.

Fat Joe, the hip-hop legend, has expanded his talents beyond music with his new talk show, Fat Joe Talks, which premiered recently on Starz. Airing every Friday, the show promises to deliver unfiltered conversations with some of the most influential names in entertainment.

For the first episode, Joe invited another icon, Method Man, to sit down for a candid discussion. What followed was an intimate, emotional exchange that showcased the power of vulnerability and real talk.

The debut episode took place in a meaningful location—Method Man’s old stomping grounds of Staten Island. For Method Man, it was more than just a trip down memory lane; it became a space to open up about his ongoing struggle with mental health, specifically his bouts with depression.

The conversation began with the two reflecting on that gut feeling people get about keeping in touch with loved ones. From there, the discussion naturally turned more personal.

Method Man didn’t hold back. He revealed to Fat Joe that he has struggled with depression on and off throughout his life, referring to it as “certain s**t” that he still deals with. “It never really goes away,” he admitted, explaining that these feelings come in waves.

Method Man continued, sharing an emotional story about a heartfelt text message he had received from a friend. The message, while simple, had made a significant difference in his mood, reminding him of the importance of meaningful connections. “It made me feel better,” he confided, showcasing how small gestures can have a big impact, especially when someone is struggling.

“The point I’m trying to make is every now and then when you get a thought like, ‘Damn, I wonder what this person’s doing,’ act on it,” said Method Man. “Call them, see how they doing or find some way to get in contact with them. It never hurts. You have no idea how much that could mean to them.”

Method Man Reveals A New Memoir In The Works

The emotional depth of the conversation didn’t stop there. Fat Joe, known for his ability to create a comfortable space for his guests, allowed the Wu-Tang Clan rapper to reveal more personal revelations. Method Man shared that he is working on a memoir about his life, giving Fat Joe and the audience an exclusive preview of what’s to come.

When asked what the potential title might be, Method Man offered a suggestion that reflected the emotional weight of his life experiences. “It might be, ‘Bring The Pain,’ because there’s a lot of that,”

This isn’t the first time Method Man has been transparent about his mental health. In August 2023, he gave a revealing interview with Men’s Health, where he admitted that it took him a long time to fully understand what he was going through mentally and emotionally. He acknowledged that being open about these struggles was a challenge but a necessary step toward healing.

More recently, in a September 2024 Rolling Stone interview, Method Man expanded on what healing looks like for him today.

“Being honest, taking care of my responsibilities, and being genuinely happy,” he explained. He spoke about how aging had changed his perspective, bringing a sense of contentment with life’s simple pleasures. “Who knew getting older would do that?” he said, adding, “I want to look at the sunset because I like sunsets, not because I’m trying to appease someone or follow some status quo.”

Fat Joe’s Fat Joe Talks is shaping up to be more than just a celebrity talk show. It’s becoming a platform for real, unfiltered conversations about life, struggle, and resilience. Method Man’s willingness to open up about his mental health struggles set the tone for what viewers can expect from the show—raw authenticity and deep connections.

Fat Joe Talks airs Fridays on Starz.

Naomi Campbell has set the record straight about her rumored feud with Rihanna following some seemingly shady behavior exhibited by the former at New York Fashion Week. In a recent interview with The New York Times, the supermodel addressed speculation that she and celebrity stylist Law Roach were throwing shade at the “Love on the Brain” singer during the Alaïa fashion showcase. 

Naomi Says There’s No Beef Between Her And Rihanna

Fans online speculated that Campbell, 54, and Roach, 46, were miffed by Rihanna seemingly ignoring them as she arrived at the event in a dazzling crystal mesh gown. They even thought their viral “demure” video might have been a dig at the “Umbrella” singer’s revealing look. However, Campbell swiftly shut down the rumors, insisting that she had no issues with the 36-year-old Grammy winner.

“I’m not about to let the world pitch two Black women against each other,” the runway icon told The New York Times in her latest interview. “We are two women with two children, mothers.”

As previously reported, Campbell and Roach were dragged into the court of public opinion when they took part in the viral demure trend created by TikToker Jools Lebron.

“We don’t go to the shows like other girls,” Law said in the video posted to his Instagram account on Sept 14. “We don’t come with our tatas out or our chichis out. Very demure.”

Campbell added;

“Very mindful. It’s not about showing yourself. It’s about showing the clothes.”

Fans of the shady post were convinced that the duo’s subtle jab was directed at Rihanna, who looked stunning as she seemingly ignored the fashion icons to greet former British Vogue editor-in-chief Edward Enniful. Among those taking offense was Rihanna’s devoted fanbase, The Navy, who unleashed a barrage of insults toward both Roach and Campbell on X (formerly Twitter), labeling them as “shady” “petty” and “tacky.”

Law has since addressed the speculation, urging fans to “stop making sh–t up” and denying any feud.

“What’s so funny to me is that, in this universe of the internet and social media that y’all live in, y’all are always thinking something has to be something,” he said in a Sept. 15 video on X. “But something ain’t always something. Sometimes something is just nothing. So stop trying to make nothing into something. You know what? Y’all need to get some business.” 

While this remains pure speculation, some think that tensions may have started when Rihanna began dating billionaire Hassan Jameel in 2017, whom Campbell reportedly dated previously, according to Teen Vogue. However, Campbell addressed these rumors back in March 2017 during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live with host Andy Cohen when asked about the potential feud.

“Everything’s fine,” she shared at the time. “I’m an actress now, Andy. I don’t have beef especially with Black women. The support is powerful, we are all out there doing the same thing. We all have the same struggle,” she added.
