Summer Walker became the center of an unexpected online feud after Celina Powell repeatedly mentioned her while throwing shade at Lil Meech. Over the past month, Celina has inserted Summer’s name into conversations about Meech at least twice, but this latest round finally prompted Summer to respond. When Summer pointed out that Celina is a “fan,” Powell did not dispute it. Instead, she boasted about allegedly being involved with several of Summer’s former partners, from Lil Meech to Rico Recklezz. Summer answered by posting screenshots of messages Celina had previously sent her along with a fiery note about men who settle for “loser” women. Celina Powell claimed that she’s been with all three of Summer Walker’s exes in her latest story posts.

The situation resurfaced when Celina posted a video of herself singing one of Summer’s new tracks and tagging her with the caption, “When y’all crying over the same man but she can actually sing.” Summer reposted the clip and added, “Lmao tried to tell y’all these b*tches really fans of me.” Celina followed up with a lengthy message naming men they allegedly shared and wrote, “I use to smash Meech to ur songs playing in hte background…I never gave af. I like yo music girly pop @summerwalker. Oh and I had [London On Da Track] before u and [Rico Recklezz] and Meech ALLL BEFORE U so please stfu and just sing.” Celina continued with more posts, including one where she said, “Sure am, now get back to the studio and make some more music about the man I took from ya.” Summer did not go back and forth. Instead, she promoted her album and shared a screenshot of Celina apologizing privately on November 10, saying, “Congrats on ur album and I apologize fr if I ever caused any drama.” Rico Recklezz later responded to Celina’s claims, admitting to oral sex once but saying it “don’t count.” Celina insisted he still belongs to her “collection.” Amid all of the online back and forth, Summer posted a final message about women who accept men with no standards, writing, “I truly understand.”

Anticipation is building for A$AP Rocky’s forthcoming studio album is Don’t Be Dumb, though the rapper has remained tight-lipped about its official release date. In a recent Vanity Fair feature with actors Callum Turner, LaKeith Stanfield, Glen Powell, and Jeremy Allen White, Rocky shared insights into the album’s progress, teasing collaborations without revealing a timetable. He noted, “Danny Elfman has collaborated with me on this project, scoring several tracks for my new album. We have something special in the works that I expect to share with fans before the year’s end.” The comments suggest a distinctive musical direction while avoiding concrete release details. Rocky has repeatedly sidestepped questions about timing. After postponing the album in 2024, he hinted at a potential surprise drop in an October interview with Numéro Magazine. “To be honest, I don’t want to discuss release dates any longer,” he said. “I believe it’s best to let the music resonate naturally. One day, you’ll simply wake up to exciting news. I regretted giving dates last time, and I want to ensure you enjoy the album when it finally arrives.” View this post on Instagram Rocky’s Pursuit of Film Alongside music, Rocky has pursued acting with increasing focus. “Acting is simply another facet of the expansive world of the arts,” he told Vanity Fair. “I consider myself a Renaissance man, driven by a long-standing passion for pursuing diverse acting roles.” He recently starred in Spike Lee’s Highest 2 Lowest opposite Denzel Washington. Reflecting on the experience, Rocky said, “Being around established figures is invaluable; I absorb their wisdom every time. I aspire to combine that knowledge with my own journey and perhaps one day be considered that wise and timeless presence while still embracing my youthful charm.” Through his work in music and film, Rocky continues to navigate multiple creative arenas, offering fans a compelling glimpse of a career that defies conventional boundaries while promising more artistic milestones ahead.

Offset has found himself in the middle of escalating tensions with Finesse2tymes, sparked by comments about his ex-wife Cardi B and her relationship with Stefon Diggs. In the wake of these exchanges, Offset appears to have withdrawn from social media, deactivating both his Instagram and Twitter/X accounts. While the reasoning behind this retreat is not fully clear, it comes after a series of increasingly heated interactions that have drawn public attention. Finesse2tymes ignited the confrontation with a pointed critique of Offset during a discussion of Cardi B’s new romance. Offset responded sharply, declaring, “Btch a** n**a don’t say my name,” which drew an immediate counter from Finesse2tymes. “Don’t get mad at me,” he added, redirecting attention to Diggs and implying that the feud was unnecessary. The back-and-forth intensified when Offset posted cryptic messages on his Instagram Story, conveying frustration and a warning to others. “All yal ns think it’s sweet til ns spank you then don’t. Call police,” he wrote, adding, “Keep [naming] me stand on it too all you p*****s,” signaling the depth of his discontent while keeping the dispute in the public eye. Understanding the Beef Offset’s dismissal of Finesse2tymes went further, questioning, “What I look like beefing with a BBL?” The remark aimed to discredit Finesse2tymes while adding a side jab about focusing on personal fitness. The feud also intersected with another public diss from YG, who referenced Offset and Cardi B in his Red Bull Spiral Cypher freestyle. Offset confirmed he addressed YG privately, stating, “I dm the p***y too,” showing his preference for handling some matters off social media. YG’s lyrics touched on themes of survival and authenticity, connecting personal experiences to broader challenges in the music industry. His words highlighted how rivalries are often interconnected, demonstrating the nuanced layers of influence and reputation in hip-hop culture.

Teyana Taylor was having a completely normal day doing her skincare routine when everything changed. The singer and actress revealed to PEOPLE at Elle’s Women in Hollywood event on November 17 that she learned about her Grammy nomination with a face mask drying on her skin. In the Instagram video she posted on November 11, she is shown frozen in place as she tries not to crack the mask. “I got a mask on so I can’t move my face,” she says after hearing that her 2025 album Escape Room is nominated for Best R and B Album. The category places her alongside GIVĒON, Coco Jones, Ledisi, and Leon Thomas. View this post on Instagram In the clip, Teyana eventually lets her excitement break through. She jumps up and down on the couch, FaceTimes her family, and joins them in prayer. “I was so excited but also so excited for the wonders that that face mask was doing, you know what I’m saying?” she joked. But once her grandmother began praying, Teyana says the emotion took over completely. “My Nana started praying, and literally I cried my whole mask off. It was so amazing, so beautiful, the best way to find out.” On Instagram, she opened up even more. Teyana reflected on how meaningful the timing felt. “Nearly twenty years ago on November 7th I signed my very first record deal,” she wrote. “And on November 7th, 2025 … God said ‘remember when I told you the weight slash wait wasn’t punishment? I told you it was preparation for what I already had written for you?? Baby girl, it’s your time.’” She described her twenty year journey as a mix of “highs, heartbreaks, reinvention, revelation, rooms I prayed to enter, rooms I had to walk away from, and rooms I had to build myself.” Receiving her first Grammy nomination after all that, she said, filled her with overwhelming gratitude. “To be seen this way.”

6ix9ine is asking a federal judge to postpone his upcoming sentencing after a violent home invasion left his family shaken and raised concerns about their safety. He faces up to nine months behind bars for violating the terms of his supervised release earlier this year, but the break-in has shifted his immediate focus toward protecting his mother. His attorney requested the delay from U.S. District Judge Paul A. Engelmayer so the rapper can arrange a secure relocation for her before returning to court. In a letter to the judge, attorney Lance Lazzaro described the November 16 incident, when four masked men forced their way into 6ix9ine’s home and threatened his mother at gunpoint. Lazzaro wrote that the rapper was in Miami at the time, appearing on an online livestream with influencer Jack Doherty, which may have signaled to the intruders that the property was unguarded. He emphasized the seriousness of the break-in and the urgent need to move 6ix9ine’s mother to a safer location. “My office has been in contact with AUSA Jonathan Rebold, and he consents to this request,” Lazzaro added, noting that prosecutors did not oppose the postponement. The judge has not yet ruled on the timing of the sentencing. 6ix9ine speaks on 4 armed masked men running into his crib and holding his mom at gunpoint while he was out doing a livestream pic.twitter.com/6xOBwSUKnt — DJ Akademiks (@Akademiks) November 17, 2025 He says intruders struck during his brief absence The rapper addressed the incident on social media the next day, pushing back against speculation surrounding what happened inside his home. “I wanna make this video to clear up all the fake news and rumors,” he said. “The world knows this, it’s a fact: I’m on house arrest; I’ve been on house arrest. I think everyone in America and everyone across the world knows that I’m on house arrest.” He said the intruders exploited his brief absence from the residence—an absence permitted so he could work. “Yesterday, they allowed me to leave for work. People saw that I was on livestream with Jack Doherty. They took that opportunity to fcking do some pssy sh*t.” He continued with visible anger: “My mom is 60 years old. Y’all know I’m supposed to come home. Y’all know I’m home all the time. I’m on house arrest. So, y’all take the opportunity that I’m not home…” For now, his sentencing remains scheduled for Thursday, November 20, leaving the court—and the public—waiting to see how the case unfolds in the wake of the break-in.

Since his incarceration, Fetty Wap has largely been absent from the hip-hop scene. Only occasional family photos and messages calling for his release keep fans connected. Known as one of the defining voices of 2010s hip-hop, Fetty’s trajectory shifted sharply following a drug trafficking conviction. This resulted in a six-year sentence, marking a sobering pause in his career. New developments offer hope for the 34-year-old artist. Us Weekly reports that Fetty Wap’s release has been moved up to December 8, 2026. This means he could be reunited with family just ahead of the holiday season. Previously, his release was scheduled for March 2027, with a minor adjustment to January 8. The court has not disclosed why the date changed again, but the news has sparked excitement. Supporters are eager for his return. Currently, Fetty is serving time at FCI Sandstone in Minnesota, a low-security facility. After release, he will enter a five-year period of supervised probation. While some had hoped for an earlier date, this adjustment signals meaningful progress toward his return to freedom. Fetty Wap’s Fans and Family Rally Ahead of Release Fetty Wap’s family has been vocal in advocating for a reconsideration of his sentence. His sister, Divinity Maxwell-Butts, spoke out on social media earlier this year. She emphasized his accountability and the nonviolent nature of his offense. “He has taken responsibility for his actions and served a substantial part of his sentence for a nonviolent crime,” she wrote. She urged for mercy and highlighted the importance of second chances. Her campaign, including a hashtag initiative for his pardon, reflects the support of many. They hope to see him reunited with loved ones. Even behind bars, Fetty Wap’s influence on the genre remains strong. Fans continue to celebrate his contributions, recalling the energy and creativity he brought to the music scene. Occasional updates and prison photos have reinforced the bond between the artist and his audience. These keep his legacy alive while he serves his sentence. As the holiday season nears, the updated release date offers a sense of hope and renewal. Fetty Wap’s story is a reminder that even amid incarceration, the possibility for redemption remains very real. A fresh chapter is possible.

Ice Spice is stepping into a new lane this winter as she officially joins the world of animation. Nearly three years after she released her hit “Bikini Bottom,” the rapper is now part of The SpongeBob Movie Search for SquarePants. The sequel arrives in theaters on December 19 through Paramount Pictures, and fans just got their first look at her character. Billboard shared an exclusive preview on Monday, November 17th, revealing an animated version of Ice Spice with her trademark bright orange curls. In the clip, she delivers a confident warning in her Bronx accent, saying, “Don’t make me call security.” For Ice Spice, being included in a SpongeBob project feels like something she spoke into existence long before it happened. She explained that she truly believes she “manifested” this moment. In a behind the scenes featurette for the film directed by Derek Drymon, she opened up about how different the experience was for her. “I think I manifested this,” she said. “It was a challenge, but it was really fun, new and different. I never did anything like this.” She is joining a cast filled with familiar names including Regina Hall, Sherry Cola, Arturo Castro and George Lopez. Along with voicing a character, Ice Spice also created an original song for the soundtrack. Last week, she released “Big Guy,” a playful and family friendly track produced by her longtime collaborator RIOTUSA. She shared how meaningful the moment is, saying, “Being part of the SpongeBob soundtrack is such a full circle moment for me. It’s crazy to see my music in a movie that’s been part of so many people’s childhoods, including mine.” Ice Spice already has more acting lined up. In August she appeared in Spike Lee’s film Highest 2 Lowest with Denzel Washington and A$AP Rocky, marking her official entrance into the movie world and expanding her reach beyond music.

Drake is preparing for another round in his legal fight with Universal Music Group. This sets the stage for a case that continues to draw wide industry attention. After his defamation lawsuit was dismissed in early October, the Toronto rapper moved quickly to appeal. This signals that the battle is far from over. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit has now placed both sides on the calendar for a mediation session. It is scheduled on December 19 at 10:30 a.m. ET. Chief Circuit Mediator Kathleen M. Scanlon will lead the discussion by phone, according to reports. The session is expected to give both Drake and UMG a chance to lay out their positions. They will gauge the strength of their competing claims and determine if there is room for a negotiated resolution. Drake’s legal push dates back to a lawsuit he filed in January. It quickly attracted headlines because of the explosive allegations at its center. The case rested on what Judge Jeannette Vargas called a “hefty” accusation against the rapper. However, she ultimately concluded the claim could not reasonably be taken as fact. “Although the accusation is serious,” she wrote, “the nature of a rap battle—often characterized by incendiary remarks—means that audiences do not expect to receive factual assertions.” UMG Shifts Focus Ahead of Drake Mediation UMG welcomed the dismissal and framed Drake’s original filing as an unnecessary attack on creative expression. The company has said it is eager to move past the dispute. It wants to return its attention to Drake’s music and ongoing projects. What happens on December 19 could shape the trajectory of this conflict for months, if not years. A mediation that breaks in UMG’s favor may place added pressure on Drake. He continues to defend his position publicly and legally. With both sides preparing for a pivotal discussion, the outcome is likely to echo far beyond the courtroom.

During a brief exchange with reporters, Donald Trump chose unusually cautious phrasing when recalling a 2022 dinner with Kanye West. He referred to him only as “somebody” before eventually naming him. His response came as journalists pressed him about Tucker Carlson’s recent interview with Nick Fuentes. This renewed attention to Trump’s past encounters with the far-right commentator. Trump revisited the Mar-a-Lago dinner with characteristic brevity. “I didn’t know he was coming, and he was with, as you know, somebody. Kanye. Kanye asked if he could have dinner, and he brought Nick,” he said. The comments, published by TMZ, framed the meeting as an unexpected drop-in. It was not a planned gathering, a distinction Trump emphasized as political scrutiny intensified. Asked about Carlson’s decision to interview Fuentes, Trump largely shrugged it off. “We’ve had some great interviews with Tucker Carlson, but you can’t tell him who to interview,” he said. “If he wants to interview Nick Fuentes — I don’t know much about him, but if that’s what he wants to do, let him. Ultimately, people have to decide.” The response contrasted sharply with condemnation from lawmakers. This included Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer, who called the interview “appalling” on X. Kanye West’s Shifting Public Stance Kanye West’s earlier ties to Fuentes loomed large during his brief presidential bid. It was a time marked by a series of antisemitic remarks that drew widespread backlash. Recently, however, West has begun attempting to repair those fractures. Earlier this month, he met with Rabbi Yoshiyahu Yosef Pinto in what he described as an effort to take responsibility for past behavior. “I was dealing with various issues, including bipolar disorder, and I often neglected the impact of my actions on those around me,” West said in a video of their conversation. His recent outreach suggests a desire to rebuild relationships and reposition himself after years of controversy. However, the extent to which his efforts resonate—either politically or culturally—remains uncertain.
