Wesley Snipes Denies Patton Oswalt’s Claims He Was Violent On “Blade” Set

In 2012, comedian Patton Oswalt made claims about Wesley Snipes’s behavior on the set of the 2004 film Blade: Trinity. Oswalt told AV Club in an interview that Snipes was “crazy in a hilarious way” and attempted to “strangle the director, David Goyer.” He suggested that Snipes wasn’t an easy co-star to work with, leaving many to believe that Snipes was just another violent, out of control actor.
Wesley Snipes recently addressed those accusations when he caught up with The Guardian and refuted Oswalt’s allegations. “Let me tell you one thing. If I had tried to strangle David Goyer, you probably wouldn’t be talking to me now,” Snipes said. “A Black guy with muscles strangling the director of a movie is going to jail, I guarantee you.” He also stated that the incident with Goyer “never happened” and that Oswalt was someone he doesn’t know that well.
“I can barely remember him on the set, but it’s fascinating that his statement alone was enough to make people go: ‘Yeah, you know Snipes has got a problem.’’ Snipes added, “This is part of the challenges that we as African Americans face here in America – these microaggressions. The presumption that one white guy can make a statement and that statement stands as true! Why would people believe his version is true? Because they are predisposed to believing the black guy is always the problem.”

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

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.

Tony Yayo Opens Up About Bearing the Weight of 50 Cent’s Beefs

In the ever-changing world of hip-hop, friendships and loyalty are crucial. For Tony Yayo, loyalty isn’t just a catchphrase, it’s part of who he is. In a recent interview with VladTV, the longtime G-Unit member shared his thoughts on supporting his close friend and music partner, 50 Cent, even when things get tough. Yayo understands that being loyal to 50 Cent sometimes puts him in challenging situations, often leading to confrontations that don’t directly involve him. He candidly points out, “I know that people might target me just because they’re upset with 50.” It’s a reality he’s learned to accept.
In the music industry, there’s an unspoken rule that being loyal can come with sacrifices. For Yayo, this often means dealing with conflicts from those who see him as closely connected to 50 Cent. Despite facing disrespect through feuds and insults, Yayo remains steadfast, refusing to let outside pressures influence him. Rather than feeling bitter, Yayo approaches his experiences with a positive mindset. He recognizes that loyalty can be costly. “There are no rules in this game,” he remarked, highlighting the unpredictable and sometimes harsh nature of the industry. For him, the key is to stay smart and focused.
Yayo’s down to earth attitude is evident as he underlines the importance of perseverance. “I’ve faced a lot in this industry, and I just try to remain humble and keep pushing forward,” he shared. His strong mindset shows that while drama often grabs attention, it also reveals true strength. As fans of G-Unit know, the relationship between Yayo and 50 Cent goes beyond just music. It’s a brotherhood built on years of loyalty and shared struggles. While some may see Yayo as just a side player in 50’s conflicts, he views himself as a committed soldier, ready to face whatever challenges arise.
