Kanye West Fires at Cardi B and Industry Peers in Explosive Twitter Rant

HonkMagazine

Kanye West is back in the spotlight, and this time, he’s making headlines for another outburst on social media aimed at some major names in the rap world. Known for his outspoken nature, Ye has been throwing shade at former collaborators, including Future, Metro Boomin, Tyler, The Creator, and Playboi Carti. However, what got people talking was his bold comment about Cardi B. In his latest Twitter post, Kanye referred to Cardi as “used,” sparking a flurry of reactions online. While he didn’t elaborate on what he meant, the comment has left fans and critics buzzing with speculation. If there’s one thing we know about Kanye, he doesn’t shy away from voicing his thoughts about others in the music industry.

But Cardi isn’t the only artist he targeted. Kanye also called out Future and Metro Boomin, claiming they ghosted him regarding a planned remix of a song called “Like That.” In a tweet, he expressed his disappointment, saying they contacted him to join the remix, but after he mentioned a music executive, they stopped responding and didn’t release the song on streaming platforms. His criticism didn’t end there. Tyler, The Creator, known for his unique style and creativity, was also in Kanye’s sights. Ye dismissed Tyler’s entire music career harshly, saying he’s never made a memorable song and that his last album borrowed too much from Kanye’s style.

Kanye’s issues with Playboi Carti were more personal. He revealed that Carti had contacted Kim Kardashian, suggesting that his daughter, North West, join him on a song. Kanye made it clear that he disapproved of this idea, stating, “I DECIDED NORTH WONT BE DOING ANY SONGS WITH CARTI,” emphasizing that it wouldn’t look good for him if his daughter was involved after he was left off a project. These latest rants from Kanye showcase both professional and personal frustrations as he continues to engage in public disputes. It’s unclear if these tensions will escalate, but Kanye West isn’t holding back his opinions on the music industry.

F1lthy Challenges DJ Akademiks to a Boxing Match After Controversial Comments on Playboi Carti’s MUSIC

HonkMagazine

The hip-hop scene is buzzing with excitement, and it’s not just about the music this time. F1lthy, a prominent producer who played a big role in Playboi Carti’s new album MUSIC, has thrown down a bold challenge that caught everyone off guard. This all started when DJ Akademiks, a well-known media personality, made some waves with his comments about the album’s launch, including some questionable claims about who was really behind its direction. Akademiks suggested that rapper Kendrick Lamar was the one creatively guiding the album, but F1lthy stepped in to set the record straight.

Instead of accepting the correction, Akademiks dismissed F1lthy, saying he didn’t even know who he was. For someone as influential as F1lthy, known for his work since Carti’s Whole Lotta Red, that comment felt personal. In response, F1lthy took to social media and issued a playful challenge, “You owe me a boxing match at Barclays Center.” Many fans are now excited about the idea of these two going head to head in the ring. Recently, it’s become trendy for celebrities to settle their disputes through boxing matches.

However, beneath this playful banter lies a more serious issue about how much respect producers deserve in the music industry. F1lthy has heavily influenced the unique sound of MUSIC, and his talent deserves recognition. While Akademiks may grab headlines with his commentary, it’s F1lthy’s beats that listeners truly enjoy. As the back and forth continues, it’s clear that their tension is far from resolved. Whether we’ll actually see a boxing match at Barclays Center is uncertain, F1lthy is ready to defend his name and fight for recognition.
