Common may have a reputation for being a conscious rapper, but he had no problem going at those who question his pen. He spent years going back and forth with Ice Cube over a perceived diss in his classic single "I Used to Love H.E.R." Cube fired at Com with the seminal Westside Connection heater "Westside Slaughterhouse," and then Common responded with the Pete Rock-produced "The B*tch In Yoo." Great songs across the board, but things reached such a fever pitch by the late 90s that Com was concerned about the next step.

The Chicago rapper recalled his feelings on the matter during a recent appearance on 7PM In Brooklyn. He revealed that something went down between him and Cube in-person in 1995, which pushed things in an unexpected direction. "We had a little confrontation in Atlanta and this was like '95," he recalled. "At that point we had a little confrontation. And I was like, 'Man, this might get ugly.'" Common credited three things with helping to close the book on the beef by 1997. The first two things were the deaths of Biggie and 2Pac following their battle. The third was the encouragement from the Nation of Islam leader, Louis Farrakhan."

Common And Ice Cube Have Become Close Friends



The truce between Common and Ice Cube took place at the Nation of Islam headquarters in Chicago. The event was attended by rappers from all coasts, many of whom were involved in beef at one time. Snoop Dogg, Fat Joe, Mack 10, and Tha Dogg Pound were some of the most notable names. Common told the hosts that he remains grateful for Minister Farrakhan, and Ice Cube's willingness to bury things. He assured listeners that him and Cube are close to this day. They even co-starred in Barbershop: The Next Cut together.

Common, who's working on his next album with the man who produced his Cube diss, Pete Rock, is proud of the fact that he avoided violence. "Ultimately, I felt good that we kept it on wax," he noted. "It was getting to that point with me and Cube. Because they was looking at me like, 'Oh, Common's just the backpack dude.'"

We struggle to think of three more controversial celebrities in 2024. Candace Owens crediting Kanye West for a conspiracy theory he had about Diddy. It's a long walk, admittedly, but one the public was forced to take when security footage showed Diddy assaulting Cassie in a hotel hallway in 2016. The footage shocked the public, and Owens, like every other celebrity on the planet, released a statement criticizing Diddy. She couldn't do so, however, without citing a bold claim that West previously made about the Bad Boy mogul.

Owens reposted the footage of the Cassie assault on her X (formerly Twitter) timeline. She then stated that the reason Diddy has been allowed to run amok for so long is because he's protected by the federal agencies within the U.S. "He's not in jail because he's a FED/CIA asset," Owens tweeted. "Kanye tried to tell everyone." The claim Owens made about Kanye West trying to "tell everyone" stems from an IG post the rapper made in 2021. He posted a screenshot of a text chain in which Diddy asked for his address. "N**ga f*ck you," he responded. "You Fed."

This is not the only time West has accused Diddy of shady behavior. During a 2022 appearance on the podcast Drink Champs, the rapper suggested that Diddy was untrustworthy. He also accused the mogul of making deals with federal agencies to keep himself out of trouble. "The reason why you gotta talk is because you did a deal, you f*cking fed," he told the hosts.

Kanye West then alluded to a situation in which he felt Diddy was trying to entrap him to get him in legal trouble. "That's why you've gotta come at me, because part of the deal for you to be able to do all that and get out of jail is that you promised that you are gonna go pull my card," he claimed. Diddy attended West's Rolling Loud performance in March, but the latter avoided interacting with him.

According to TMZ the rapper "had no interest" in talking to or being seen with Diddy. West's instincts proved correct, even if his theory has yet to be proven.

Slim Thug made headlines for the wrong reason in November 2023. The veteran rapper posted a video to his Instagram in which he cast doubt on the accusations against Diddy. He theorized Cassie, who had just filed a lawsuit against the music mogul, was doing so without having legitimate grips. The internet criticized Thug, and felt like he was being insensitive to the victim of someone who had already been overpowered by Diddy's connections.

Slim Thug went as far as to compare Diddy to Bill Cosby, in terms of innocence. The comparison is not flattering, but the rapper ran with it. "Bill Cosby is not guilty of all that sh*t," he wrote in his post. "They were getting high with him. Having fun with him, turning up with him. When they went broke, they tryna do all this extra sh*t." Cassie was somebody that Thug put in the "extra sh*t" camp. Thug doubled down on his statements when the critiques filled his comment section, but he has since changed his tune. The footage that was released on May 17 changed his mind, along with the rest of the world.

The footage, which was aired on CNN, shows Diddy violently assaulting Cassie as she waits for a hotel elevator. It's highly disturbing, and serves as proof for all of the claims that the singer previously made against Diddy.

The footage was so damning that Slim Thug felt the need to issue an apology to Cassie via Instagram. "Damn Diddy I tried to ride with the Blk man who had no charges yet but I can't stand behind this," he explained. "I'll take this L. But I still will ride with my ppl until I see some sort of proof I don't believe in blogs or civil suits." The rapper then addressed Cassie directly. "Apologies to Cassie and whoever else was on the right side this time," he added.

Slim Thug's opinion of Diddy has understandably shifted after seeing the CNN footage. Thug previously criticized those who were championing Diddy's downfall. "He thought that we would ride or die for him. He thought that the world of Hip-Hop would stay down," the rapper posited back in March. "This dude is on the list of the worst people in the world right now without no criminal charges." We at least have to give it to Slim Thug for admitting he was wrong in this instance.

The revelations keep rolling in. The May 17 news cycle has been dominated by the CNN video of Diddy assaulting Cassie in a hotel hallway. The music mogul punches and kicks the singer is security footage that dates back to March 2016. Some fans are relieved that damning evidence against Diddy has finally been released, while others have questioned why it took nearly a decade to see the light of day. Perez Hilton claims to have information on this very valid question.

Hilton got on Instagram Live to address the Diddy footage, and shed light on why the public had never seen it before. "According to Cassie," the celebrity blogger stated. "In the lawsuit that she filed last year against Diddy, she claims that Diddy paid the hotel to get that footage. He gave them $50K and problem solved. He was in possession of that footage." Perez Hilton stated that the footage was confiscated by the government during the raid on Diddy's homes in March 2024. It then made its way to CNN.

"What I believe happened was, in the recent raid of Diddy's multiple properties, the government came into possession of that and somebody there leaked it," Hilton added. The blogger went on to attack the people who helped to cover up Diddy's crime. "Everybody at that hotel in Los Angeles should be held criminally responsible for this," he asserted. "They had an obligation to report a crime and they didn't. Shame on them."

IHG Hotels, the chain Diddy and Cassie were staying at during the altercation, issued a statement. They told People Magazine that were not aware of what transpired with the Los Angeles staff. "This hotel is no longer under IHG management," the statement read. "And we do not have any access to prior incident records or footage."

Cassie's attorney, Douglas H. Wigdor, also spoke to the outlet. He praised his client's courage, and hoped it would lead to her seeing justice served. "Words cannot express the courage and fortitude that Ms. Ventura has shown in coming forward to bring this to light," he noted.

Meek Mill has had a rough few months. Things got started earlier this year when he released his new EP HEATHENISM. The 5-track EP features Future and Fivio Foreign but that didn't help it perform well commercially. The project did underwhelming numbers by Meek's standards, something that 50 Cent hasn't let him live down in the months since. Though Meek did attempt to provide a defense for the poor sales saying that it was just a side project to conclude his record deal, many fans weren't buying it.

Even more of the viral hate directed at Meek comes from his affiliation with Diddy. Back in February, an explosive lawsuit was filed against the rap mogul by one of his former collaborators Lil Rod. It features multiple references to other famous rappers like Yung Miami and of course, Meek Mill. That's caused fans to dig up a decade's worth of videos and photos of Meek hanging out with Diddy. Just earlier today Diddy's situation got even worse when graphic video of him allegedly assaulting Cassie was leaked by CNN. Unsurprisingly, Meek took to social media today to talk about the damage that those very platforms have done to the black community. Check out what he had to say below.

— MeekMill (@MeekMill) May 16, 2024

In a new tweet, he took aim at social media platforms. "The black community needs therapy over social media point blank ... the points we be trying to make don't lead to anything ... just a bunch of people pointing fingers all day ...I talk because I see a generation run by computers ... computers don't suffer but people do!" his post reads. The replies feature mixed reactions from fans including many pointing out the Meek himself could also use a break from social media.

The Diddy bombshell has taken over popular culture. Celebrities are coming out of the woodwork to voice their disgust over the footage of Diddy assaulting Cassie in a hotel hallway. Other executives like Wack 100 have warned Diddy that he's going to get what's coming to him. Artists who worked under the Bad Boy mogul, like Aubrey O'Day, suggest that there are more horror stories to be revealed. Then there are the Stephen A Smiths of the world, who plainly state that Diddy's career is done for.

Stephen A Smith addressed the Diddy footage on the May 17 taping of his show. He did not mince words. As far as he's concerned, it's a wrap. "I declare, right here," he explained. "Over these digital airwaves of YouTube, that the career of Sean 'P. Diddy' Combs, as we know it, it's over." Smith believes that the new footage that has surfaced is so damning that no amount of rehabilitation or rebranding can bring Diddy back. "This sh*t is over," he elaborated. "It's over in the worst possible way... One of the worst possible ways you can imagine."

Stephen A Smith recounted the footage that was exclusively obtained by CNN, and the public outcry that has resulted. He then compared Diddy to the harrowing case of NFL star Ray Rice. "Remember Ray Rice? Remember what happened," he asked the viewers. "Late 2014 when his girl was in the elevator and she either shoved him or hit him and then he check-left-hooked her? And hit her, and knocked her face into the bar inside the elevator? She hit her head to it and then she laid on the floor, unconscious? In the elevator, straight up, knocked out." Smith then asserted that the Diddy footage is "worse."

Smith's opinion walks back previous comments he made about Diddy. During a March interview, the sports commentator claimed that Diddy would have an easier time mounting a comeback than Kanye West, who had been disgraced over numerous antisemitic remarks. He did, however, note that he did not have all the facts on the Diddy allegations. "If they charge him with something," he qualified. "We can't think like that. That's a different ballgame." Well, due to the footage, it is now a different ballgame.

During a recent appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show, Wiz Khalifa opened up about his incredibly close relationship with his mom in honor of Mother's Day. While viewers were certainly touched by his praise for the woman who raised him, Peachy, many were also taken aback by just how close they actually are. During the interview, the rapper explained that while they enjoy spending time together doing typical mother-son activities, they also like to branch out. According to him, they even go to strip clubs together for some unexpected family bonding.

"Mother's Day every day for my mom," he tells Hudson in a clip from the interview. "Peachy's a superstar. If you meet her, you'll fall in love with her. Me and my mom do everything together. We go to the strip club together, we went to Mexico, we went to Coachella together. We do everything. That's my dawg."

A strip club may not be everybody's ideal spot to spend time with their mother, but evidently, Wiz Khalifa isn't alone. Earlier this week, Lil Meech celebrated his Mother's Day with his mom and grandmother at Magic City in Atlanta. He shared some clips of them alongside a few scantily clad dancers on Instagram. Of course, the seemingly bizarre choice riled some fans up online, with many debating whether or not it was an appropriate location to bring one's mother or grandmother. Luckily, the two ladies at least appeared to enjoy their visit, though the consensus was that it was a questionable choice.

What do you think of Wiz Khalifa revealing that he and his mother frequent strip clubs? Are you surprised? Do you think it's appropriate to bring your mom to a strip club or not? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Kanye West's relationship with his wife Bianca Censori is controversial, to say the least. Ever since he made things official with the Australian model and designer last year, the pair has been subject to a great deal of criticism. Social media users have continuously picked apart everything from Censori's eye-catching outfits to her soft-spoken demeanor. Of course, many theorize that Ye must be behind them.

It appears as though strangers aren't the only ones worried for Censori amid her romance with the Chicago MC, however. Reportedly, some of her family members have also expressed concern, namely due to her revealing looks. In March, a source even told Daily Mail that Censori's father wanted to have a conversation with Ye about her flashy fashion statements, though it's unclear whether or not that ever actually took place. Now, following the announcement of the rapper's "Yeezy Porn" venture, sources tell the outlet that they're worried she'll be dragged into the adult film scene.

"The fact that he is dragging her into the adult film world with him and using her as a billboard already to promote sexual indecency is absolutely appalling," the source reportedly explained. "They feel he has convinced her that this is a good idea because it will make them wealthier." They continued, citing Ye's porn-addicted past. "Her family and friends are aware of Kanye's history with pornography, which makes it even more concerning," they said.

The remains of Diddy's public goodwill crumbled on May 17. Footage was released by CNN that showed the mogul beating up his former girlfriend, Cassie, in a hallway. There's been a tidal wave of backlash as a result, with artists denouncing Diddy or reaffirming their dislike of the disgraced Bad Boy founder. Aubrey O'Day falls under the latter. The former Danity Kane singer took to social media to voice her support for Cassie, and to assure the public that the footage does not surprise her one bit.

O'Day made her stance against Diddy clear on X (formerly Twitter). She assured her followers that she her heart goes out to Cassie. She also noted that she has yet to fully divulge what she has witnessed with regards to Diddy's behavior. "The picture is getting a lot more clear for you all I can imagine," she wrote. "I'll remind you that i haven't spoken on my personal experience yet either. Prayers up for all his victims."

Aubrey O'Day by no means wanted to take away from the case at hand. When one user voiced regret over not believing the singer's claims earlier, O'Day reassured them. "Let's focus on changing the system now," she stated. "So no one has enough power to bury or discredit voices." She went on to like tweets from other fans that supported these perspective. One of the liked tweets read: "I can only imagine what Danity Kane and all the girls and men went through in Making The Band. Thoughts and prayers to you love."

O'Day has spent years attempting to expose Diddy. She worked closely with the mogul when she was in the group Danity Kane, and made it clear that he was a terror behind closed doors. In the TMZ film TMZ Presents: The Downfall of Diddy, O'Day claimed that she was given a chance to buy her publishing back in exchange for her public silence. "It asked me specifically to stay silent and never speak poorly about a human," she revealed. "So then I realized, something really bad is coming." Well, Aubrey O'Day' instincts proved to be spot on. Something really bad is here.

Rod Wave has been through a bit of a tough time recently. Last month he was present for a shooting in Florida that led to his arrest. Though he was released shortly after it took a few days for the entire story to get cleared up. Early reports that he was hit with gun charges turned out to be true, but they were filed in error. The police department later admitted that Wave was charged as if he was a felon when he's never actually been convicted of a crime.

He was in even more controversy just last week when he was called out online by Ari Lennox. The pair toured together and crowds repeatedly harassed Ari on stage while she was performing as the opening act. She took shots at Rod for not defending her from his crowds like other rappers in similar situations have in the past. Now he's been caught up in days of drama surrounding the mother of his child after evidence of her allegedly cheating leaked online. Since then the drama has very much been unfolding in the public eye.

Now video is reportedly making the rounds of Rod arguing with his girlfriend about the incident. It's unclear why he chose to film it but it took fans behind-the-scenes into some of the details of the couple's relationship issues. That led to Rod previewing a song he's been working on addressing the situation. His break-up anthem seems to be addressing the actual issues he's dealing with as they happen. He hasn't shared any more details on when the song might arrive since.

What do you think of Rod Wave sharing a preview of his upcoming break-up song while the drama that inspired it is still going on? Are you looking forward to hearing the full song whenever it drops? Let us know in the comment section below.
