Lil Baby’s recent project, The Leaks, has become the center of conversation on social media, not only for its music but for the discussion surrounding its early sales projections. The rapper released the tape on December 3rd, 2025, choosing a mid-week drop instead of the usual Friday schedule. The release followed several weeks of buildup as he unveiled new tracks each Wednesday for his “Wham Wednesdays” rollout. Songs like “Try to Love,” “Otha Boy,” “Real Sh*t,” and “Middle of the Summer” helped create momentum leading up to the full project.

Projections estimated The Leaks at 14–15K units, and one comment comparing the performance to an NBA YoungBoy project ended up drawing a response from Baby himself. When a user on X joked, “dam yb leaks projects outsold shocking,” Baby quickly replied: “One day not first week crazy.” His choice to engage set off a new round of reactions from fans. Some users criticized him for responding to random accounts, with one saying, “Ya u know a n***a washed when they keep responding to fan accounts in they free time.” Another person offered a theory about the release date, writing: “Im a conspiracy theorist. And this was a business decision. He was scared to flop so he dropped on a Wednesday so it would count only 1 day of sales/streams. His team knew what they were doing by dropping it on Wednesday.” Before the debate over numbers began, Baby had explained the timing of the project on Instagram. “Happy B Day To Me ! What’s A Better Way To Get The World To Celebrate Wit Ya , Then Dropping A Tape ?? ‘The Leaks’ Out Nowwwwwww ! Shoutout To Whoever Be Leaking My Sh*t , Yall Made This Possible!!” he wrote. Originally intended for a September release, the project features appearances from Playboi Carti, Young Thug, Lil Yachty, Veeze, Lucki, Skooly, Bino Rideaux, Rylo Rodriguez, and G Herbo. Contributors on the production side include Wheezy, June the Genius, TM88, Murda Beatz, and Frankie Bash.

Soon after completing nearly two years behind bars, Blueface is set to debut a strikingly unconventional dating show. The concept immerses female contestants in jail-inspired environments, drawing on the rapper’s own recent experiences. Though full details remain limited, Blueface offered a preview in a social media video, immediately igniting curiosity and conversation among fans and critics. The teaser captures Blueface engaging with contestants and crew, offering a glimpse into the show’s unique tone. Online reactions have been mixed, oscillating between excitement and skepticism. When LiveBitez shared the clip on Instagram, fans weighed in with a blend of admiration and playful commentary. One viewer wrote, “I have to admit he keeps things interesting,” while another suggested that the premise could signal a fresh, inventive approach to reality television.

Some critics questioned the show’s quality, with one dismissing it as, “This is just low quality.” Others voiced concern over its suitability, cautioning viewers and parents: “Dads love your daughters. Moms love your daughters—this is absurd.” The remarks reflect unease over the provocative nature of the concept. As attention builds, the impact of Blueface’s experimental dating venture remains uncertain. Yet the project has already sparked debate in entertainment circles. Known for his flair for audacious ideas, Blueface seems poised to keep audiences engaged—whether through fascination, controversy, or both.

As 2025 draws to a close, 21 Savage is ready to reemerge with highly anticipated new music. After months of relative quiet, the Atlanta rapper teased a release this Friday with a simple post on X: “Friday !” The brief announcement has fueled speculation about the themes and sound of his latest project. His Apple Music profile now features a pre-save link for WHAT HAPPENED TO THE STREETS?, a title that echoes an acronym he recently highlighted at Art Basel in Miami. During the event, a massive inflatable sculpture by Nigerian artist Olaolu Slawn displayed the letters “WHTTS,” sparking immediate conversation among fans eager to decode the album’s meaning and direction. Fans have been waiting for a substantial solo release, as Savage’s activity this year primarily consisted of guest features on tracks like Lil Baby’s “Outfit” and Summer Walker’s “Get Yo Boy.” His last album, american dream, arrived in early 2024 and produced standout tracks including “redrum,” “nee-nah,” and “should’ve wore a bonnet.” That project contained 15 songs, while WHAT HAPPENED TO THE STREETS? appears to be slightly leaner, featuring 14 tracks. As with his previous releases, Savage has kept details about song titles and collaborators tightly under wraps, leaving fans to speculate in anticipation of the full rollout. Friday ! — Saint Laurent Don (@21savage) December 8, 2025 Who Will Collaborate on the Album? Savage has a history of revealing guest artists only at the time of release, and observers expect a similar approach this week. The upcoming album follows a chart-topping predecessor that sold 133,000 units in its first week—Savage’s fourth number-one album—raising expectations for its commercial performance. Whether this new project will surpass those numbers remains uncertain. Hints of potential features have surfaced subtly. Travis Scott recently reshared the album’s teaser on his Instagram Story, sparking rumors of a collaboration. Moreover, given the provocative title and recent exchanges between Savage and 6ix9ine, listeners anticipate bold lyrics and possibly a pointed musical rebuttal woven into the tracks. With WHAT HAPPENED TO THE STREETS? set to arrive this Friday, excitement is building around both the music and the stories it may tell. Fans await the release to see how 21 Savage charts his next chapter and whether the album will signal a new artistic direction for one of hip-hop’s most influential voices

Kehlani has been granted sole custody of her daughter, Adeya Nomi, bringing a long-running and often public dispute to a definitive close. She shared the development during a recent interview. Notably, the ruling arrived just as Adeya celebrated her sixth birthday. The decision ends years of friction with her former partner, Javie Young-White. His claims and legal challenges repeatedly spilled into public view. Tension between the two parents has lingered since their split shortly after Adeya’s birth in 2019. Matters escalated in 2024 when Young-White accused Kehlani of being influenced by a cult. He argued that this alleged group shaped her parenting. In court filings, he claimed the organization “controls her actions and her behavior,” extending those accusations to the way she raised their daughter. The claims drew widespread attention and deepened an already strained relationship. In the interview, Kehlani spoke candidly about how the ordeal affected her. She said the most painful moments came when the allegations touched her daughter. She said she leaned on her legal team and her faith as the case played out. She made clear how emotionally taxing the process had become. Life After the Ruling Kehlani confirmed that she now has full custody of Adeya and that communication with Young-White has come to a complete halt. When asked if they still speak, she responded plainly: “No.” Her answer signaled that, despite the court’s decision, the personal rift between them remains deep. She also addressed Young-White’s accusations directly, calling them unfounded and driven by speculation rather than fact. “It’s a tough scenario,” she said. “Ultimately, the claims were false… he backtracked a lot… and much of it was refuted.” Reflecting on those who latched onto the controversy, she added, “We have a lot of misery on this Earth and hopefully they find some healing.” With the case now resolved, Kehlani appears intent on reclaiming stability and protecting her daughter from further turmoil. She has stepped back from the noise that once surrounded the dispute. She is focused on building a quieter, more grounded environment for Adeya. As they move forward, she seems determined to guard their privacy and shape a future free from the conflict that defined the past several years.

The long-awaited trial of Duane “Keffe D” Davis, the man charged with orchestrating the 1996 murder of hip-hop icon Tupac Shakur , has been pushed back until August 10, 2026. The decision marks a significant delay in a case that has captivated the music world for nearly three decades. According to court filings, Davis’ defense team requested additional time to comb through what they describe as an overwhelming amount of evidence. Prosecutors did not oppose the request, allowing the court to grant the postponement. The trial had originally been scheduled for February 9, 2026. Attorneys for Davis argue they need more time to examine decades’ worth of material, including interviews, past police reports, and statements that prosecutors plan to use at trial. Davis was arrested on September 29, 2023, and charged with first-degree murder for allegedly being involved in the drive-by shooting that killed Tupac in Las Vegas in September 1996. The arrest followed years of Davis publicly recounting his role in the events surrounding the rapper’s death, including interviews and a published memoir. Prosecutors have pointed to those statements as key evidence.

During an interview, 50 Cent, arguably one of hip-hop’s best trolls, didn’t miss the chance to take a stab at Sean “Diddy” Combs. According to the G-Unit founder, Diddy is one of his “favorite villains.” The rapper had recently stopped by MS Now’s The Beat with host Ari Melber to discuss his latest project, Sean Combs: The Reckoning. The Netflix documentary works as an expose of the rise and fall of the disgraced mogul. Fif, who’s been a longtime rival of Diddy, was the executive producer of the docuseries. At one moment of the conversation, Melber asked the rapper to name his favorite heroes and villains. While Fif struggled to recall any heroes, he didn’t hesitate when it came to his favorite villain. “I have a lot of guys that I look up to, their accomplishments,” Fif began. “But I wouldn’t call them my heroes.” He added, “My favorite villain? I kind of like Diddy. Back in October, Diddy was sentenced to 50 months in federal prison after being found guilty of two counts of transportation for the purposes of prostitution, under the Mann Act. 50 Cent says his favorite villain is Diddy pic.twitter.com/jLXWCBAVhU — vids that go hard (@vidsthatgohard) December 6, 2025 50 Cent Says His Diddy Docuseries Isn’t Driven by Personal Motives In other news, during a recent conversation with GQ, he explained why he decided to help bring the docuseries to the platform. Jackson framed his involvement as a response to what he considers an uneasy quiet within the industry. Though he and Diddy have traded barbs for years, 50 Cent insisted the project was not born from past tensions. “If someone’s not saying something, then you would assume everybody in hip-hop is okay with what’s going on,” he said. He suggested that many in music tread lightly around Combs’ stature, creating a climate where critique is rare and often solitary. 50 Cent said he has grown accustomed to being one of the few willing to speak publicly. His remarks hint at a wider debate over power, loyalty, and who feels free to voice concern. The rapper emphasized that his executive producer title did not give him authority over the documentary’s narrative. “There’s no place for me; I didn’t make the docuseries,” he said. “I brought in the best possible people to create it.” 

During an awkward moment at the 2025 Streamer Awards, Kai Cenat was compared to Diddy in a joke from one of the hosts. The host, a fellow streamer named FanFan, had been preparing to present an award. It seems she was trying to engage the crowd and share a funny moment with Cenat; however, things quickly took a turn for the worse. “This year, as everyone knows, you broke the record for the most expensive haircut and the least educational university,” said FanFan. “Oh, and also, congrats on your new documentary with 50 Cent. That was you, right?” Following the joke, cameras immediately looked to Cenat, who didn’t seem particularly amused. Cenat wasn’t alone; other attendees, like Tylil James, weren’t fans of the joke either. James swiftly came to the defense of Cenat, grabbing the mic and telling FanFan, “If you’re going to be on the mic making jokes, at least let it be funny. Have a good night.” Tylil presses one of the host at the 2025 Streamer Awards for making a joke about Kai Cenat being “Diddy” in the new 50 Cent documentary pic.twitter.com/EZCODiMtTj — ryan (@scubaryan_) December 7, 2025 Cenat Wins Big At Streamer Awards Despite that brief and unpleasant moment, Cenat walked away with three trophies: Best Just Chatting Streamer, Best Streamed Event, and Best Streamed Collab. Following the event, Cenat shared some encouraging words with his supporters. “I ain’t going to lie: to everyone that supports me genuinely, y’all make me happy as fuck,” he said. “I appreciate that. And I know people in here aspire to be shit, y’all n*ggas put that foot on that fucking pedal and go. Most importantly, keep God first. I’m not playing.” Kai Cenat, a New York native, rose to fame via Twitch, an online streaming platform. With over 20,000,000 followers, the 23-year-old social media sensation is the most-watched streamer on its platform. Before his meteoric rise to fame, Cenat attended SUNY Morrisville to study Business Administration. In a 2023 interview with Complex, Kai expressed gratitude for his streaming community. “I’ve known people in my chat that’s been watching me from two years ago and they still watch me today and they still get entertained. As long as I’m able to entertain people and make them happy, that’s the best thing ever.”

Russell Wilson‘s former teammate, Trevone Boykin, recently apologized to the NY Giants Quarterback and his family following an onslaught of criticism he received. “I do wanna issue an apology,” Boykin said in the latest episode of his House of Playmakers podcast. “I feel like they didn’t wake up and ask for that—Russ [or] Ciara, or baby Future—it was an experience I had ten years ago…so I can issue that apology, because they didn’t deserve that.”A few weeks back, during an episode of Boykin’s podcast, he recounted a 2016 story about visiting Wilson’s house on Thanksgiving. According to the former NFL player, it was very “weird” that Wilson’s family wasn’t there and that the dinner was catered instead of being homemade. He claims only Wilson, Ciara, her father, a few workers, and baby Future were present. “If I got as much money as Russell Wilson, my whole family would talk about me so bad if I ain’t fly everybody out there for Thanksgiving.” He continued: “…It’s just weird to me, even if you don’t fool with your family…” View this post on Instagram Russell Wilson’s Mother, Tammy, Claps Back At Boykin’s Comments After a clip of the conversation went viral, Boykin faced serious backlash not only from Wilson’s fans but also from his own mother, Tammy Wilson. “I am his mom. It is none of your business. This is opportunistic. I am so tired of you men cutting down my son,” she wrote under a post from The Shade Room. “Jesus said, to all accusing the woman, ‘he who is without sin cast the 1st stone.’” According to her, she and other family members had prior obligations and could not attend. “Part of our family was in Fla at a tournament. I stayed planned to stay home bc I wanted to fast the 4 days before year end.” She added, “This why Russ keeps it moving. Folks not trustworthy. Russ though will forgive, but not again. I hope you felt relevant for a few minutes. Lord forgive him for he know not what he is doing.” So far, neither Wilson nor Ciara has yet to comment on the situation.

On the latest episode of The Kardashians, Kim Kardashian got emotional while talking about the response to her 2016 Paris robbery. Particularly, it was the response from her ex-husband, Kanye West, that hurt the most. “That was so like a knife to my heart,” Kardashian says. “Just to think that someone wouldn’t believe you, like, that’s so close to you, that should know you, that should know how much that affected your life.” Following the robbery, social media users and even large radio stars, like Howard Stern, claimed that Kardashian had faked the event for her television show. “It just really bothered me,” the SKIMS founder continued. “Like you don’t know how I am. So to finally be able to go to trial and face these people and hear their accounts and apologies, so I can be like, ‘see, it’s real guys, you know.’ I’m happy its over.” Kim Kardashian Reveals She Failed The Bar Exam In other news, a few weeks back, Kim Kardashian opened up about a setback in her ongoing legal journey, revealing that she didn’t pass the California Bar Exam. The reality star and business mogul shared the news on her Instagram Stories, writing, “Well… I’m not a lawyer yet. Six years into this law journey, and I’m still all in until I pass the bar. No shortcuts, no giving up — just more studying and even more determination.” Kardashian explained that although she came close to passing, she’s using the experience as motivation to keep pushing forward. “I was so close this time, and that only motivated me even more,” she added. The SKIMS founder began studying law back in 2018 through California’s apprenticeship program, which allows aspiring attorneys to train under a practicing lawyer rather than attend a traditional law school. In 2021, she passed the First-Year Law Students’ Examination — better known as the “baby bar” — after failing it three times.
