Juice WRLD Fans Go Off After Spotify Crash Caused By Facebook

When the clock struck midnight, music fans around the world were geeked up, ready to listen to the new releases of the week. One group of fans was specifically gearing up for a first listen of Juice WRLD’s posthumous album Legends Never Die but Spotify shut down their hopes and, as expected, people were pissed.

Spotify experienced a system shut-down late on Thursday night, preventing people from listening to the new music releases of the week, including Legends Never Die. Many theorized that the demand for the album was too high, which ended up crashing the streaming platform, but it turns out that that was not the case.

While there was an incredibly high demand for the new Juice WRLD album, which will almost surely debut at #1 on the Billboard 200, Spotify was not loading for some people last night, which was reportedly a product of a bug on Facebook.

According to The Verge, Pinterest, Tinder, and other apps also crashed on iOS, specifically on iPhones and iPads, and early analysis suggests that Facebook is to blame. Apparently, you didn’t even need to be logging in using Facebook for the problem to have occurred.

“We are aware and investigating an increase in errors on the iOS SDK which is causing some apps to crash,” wrote Facebook in a statement.

The issue appears to have been resolved and now, people can stream the Juice WRLD album to their heart’s desire.

Lil Durk Co Defendants OTF Dede and David Lindsey Seek Acquittal and New Trial

OTF Dede and David Lindsey are fighting their recent stalking convictions as the legal process in Lil Durk’s case continues to play out.

Lil Durk was facing five charges, two of them murder-for-hire related and three of them stalking related, while the two co-defendants were convicted on three counts of stalking in the same case. Durk was just cleared of all charges in that case a couple of weeks ago, but Dede and Lindsey didn’t get the same result.

The latest legal twist adds another chapter to a case that has remained tightly connected to Lil Durk’s ongoing legal troubles. Durk was acquitted in the initial murder-for-hire case, but his larger legal battle is far from over.

For Dede and Lindsey, the immediate issue is their stalking convictions and whether the court will grant either of the new requests filed. The couple’s pleas carry long prison sentences, and the pending motions are especially important for their attorneys.
The court has not ruled on the Rule 29 and Rule 33 motions, leaving the next phase of litigation uncertain.

Lil Durk, meanwhile, is set to appear in court on November 4 for a bond hearing. His trial in the VICAR case was scheduled for the next few weeks, but it is likely to be delayed.

Separate legal proceedings are now moving forward in the cases of Durk, Dede, and Lindsey, who remain active. Dede and Lindsey’s latest filings ensure that the group’s legal saga continues even after Durk’s acquittal in the original case.

Meek Mill steps back from his ongoing feud with DJ Akademiks,

Meek Mill and DJ Akademiks’ ongoing social media beef has taken another turn, with Meek seemingly getting the last word.

The two have been feuding for around a decade, and their tensions have become closely tied to the fallout from Meek’s beef with Drake. Following Akademiks taking Drake’s side in the public feud, Meek clearly didn’t want to be featured on Akademiks’ page. Since then, they have exchanged occasional messages and renewed disagreements.

The latest chapter heated up around the Lil Durk trial. Meek Mill called out Akademiks for his coverage and commentary on the case, saying he had become a bad influence on the culture.

Akademiks fired back hard, and the beef snowballed into a back and forth of threats between the two. At one point, Meek asked for Akademiks’ address, while Akademiks showed off an arsenal of machine guns and rifles. The confrontation had been really serious before apparently cooling off in recent days.

The message is the latest chapter in a long-running feud that has flared up several times over the past decade. This latest back-and-forth could be Meek’s attempt to close the door on the feud, but given the history between the two, tensions can flare up fast.
So far, it looks like Meek is putting a line under his part of the conversation. Only time will tell whether Akademiks responds.
