Celebrity Feuds

Playboi Carti's long-delayed "I Am Music" album is set to drop on Friday and DJ Akademiks is hinting that Kendrick Lamar used his feature to go after Drake!!!

Ak was locked into his chat last night after Carti called him and played him his "I Am Music" album in its entirety!!!

He couldn't contain his excitement, and he let out a few spoilers ... Lil Uzi Vert, Justin Bieber, XXXTentacion and a double dose of Kendrick Lamar are all featured on Carti's album!!!

Dwyane Wade doesn't have a single issue with the way LeBron James publicly beefed with Stephen A. Smith last week ... in fact, he tells TMZ Sports he would have done the exact same thing if he were in the Lakers superstar's shoes.

Bron, of course, ignited the feud with the ESPN commentator while the two were at Crypto.com Arena for L.A.'s March 6 tilt with the Knicks ... after he had gotten upset over the way Stephen A. had previously spoken about Bronny James.

Video from the scene showed LeBron got inches from Smith's nose -- and yelled at him in an apparent effort to get him to stop being critical of his relationship with his oldest son.

Suge Knight is scoffing at Snoop Dogg's claims the incarcerated mogul is "jealous" he no longer owns Death Row Records.

According to Suge's POV, Snoop's making a mockery of Hip Hop music by putting out trash albums that tarnish the label's legacy!!!

Suge's latest rant from prison came recently on "The Art Of Dialogue" ... Snoop's been annoyed his former boss won't stop yapping about him, but Suge says he's crusading for the culture.

Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick aren't feuding like everyone says, and they definitely didn't have any issues on the South by Southwest red carpet -- this, according to the director of their new movie.

Here's the deal ... rumors about tension between Lively and Kendrick have exploded after their shared appearance at the well-known film festival.

One social media user shared a group photo featuring both of them ... claiming she reported that Anna was pissed at Blake and didn't want to work with her ever again -- which is when director Paul Feig stepped in.

Anna Kendrick doesn't seem too enthusiastic about her costar Blake Lively ... 'cause while Blake said working with Anna was "the best," Anna's response came off much more lukewarm.

The two stars pulled up to the popular film and music festival South by Southwest Friday to promote their new movie "Another Simple Favor" -- the sequel to the hit 2018 flick "A Simple Favor."

Fans and reporters lined the street to get selfies and autographs ... and, while Blake had nothing but compliments for her costar, Anna didn't have the same for Blake.

Tasha K was able to get out of bankruptcy with a payment plan ... but she still has to pay up on the $3.9M judgment she lost in her case against Cardi B ... this according to new legal docs obtained by TMZ Hip Hop.

On Wednesday, a bankruptcy judge signed off on Tasha K's plan ... Tasha K will make payments to Cardi from her income she brings in from her projects over time to satisfy the judgment Cardi got in her lawsuit against the blogger ... but will only have to pay $1.2 million.

The "Bodak Yellow" rapper's inner circle also got some protection in the form of a non-disparagement clause, which bars Tasha from making any derogatory or defamatory comments about Cardi and her family.

Bhad Bhabie's mom Barbara Bregoli is ripping Alabama Barker and her family -- even threatening Travis Barker and his 1-year-old son -- after AB named BB's daughter Kali on her Insta Story.

Check out the clip ... AB, in what seems to be a new diss track, raps about Kali being born only because Bhad Bhabie's off-and-on boyfriend Le Vaughn was getting with her "for bag." Yikes.

The insult set Barbara off ... and she erupted on her Instagram Story Tuesday, referring to Alabama as "dirty ass hoe Arkansas" while saying her dad, Travis, moved on from her with a new family.

Floyd Mayweather went on national television and dogged Jake Paul ... but El Gallo wasn't about to take it sitting down -- going to social media to fire back at T.B.E. and claiming he'd whoop the 50-0 boxer's ass in the ring.

Floyd weighed in on Paul's 2024 fight with Mike Tyson on the "Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon" on Wednesday ... scoffing at the fact it was available at no additional charge to Netflix subscribers.

"When you're watching Floyd Mayweather, you have to pay," Money said on the show. "I get Pay-Per-View numbers. Check the record."

4:47 PM PT -- A rep for Bhabie tells TMZ … she was unaware that any additional verse was created, but when she found out that someone on the production team previewed it without her approval, she addressed the issue.

Bhad Bhabie's rep says she acknowledges only the sample that was used was cleared -- backing up Ye's claims. Bhad Bhabie has always prioritized authenticity in her music, the rep adds.

Kanye West doesn't want to be in the middle of controversy ... this time. The 21-time Grammy winner is adamant he is not willingly involved in Bhad Bhabie's dispute with Alabama Barker, calling it an "A.I. beef" after BB used his voice on a diss track.

Ye's Tuesday night Instagram explanation came shortly after the "Hi Bich" hitmaker posted a clip of an alleged remix of her new "Ms. Whitman" diss track that includes a verse by him. "Ms. Whitman" already samples KW and Ty Dolla Sign’s song "Carnival" ... but without Ye's voice.

Kanye says he originally cleared the sample because he says he clears all sample requests ... reasoning that "so many people try to stop me, they stop clearances."

Justin Baldoni’s lawyers are blasting Blake Lively camp for asking for an enhanced protective order ... especially given how Blake has publicly smeared him ... even having her husband make a joke over the situation on "Saturday Night Live."

In a letter to the judge on Tuesday, obtained by TMZ, Baldoni’s lawyers accuse Lively of trying to keep crucial evidence from the public, pointing out that she’s been anything but shy about her accusations in the past. They’re calling her move a bold attempt to keep the public in the dark because they feel her image is tarnished.

In Baldoni's legal letter, his lawyers point out what they call "a planned skit" on "Saturday Night Live: 50th Anniversary Special," last week in which Lively’s husband Ryan Reynolds stood up and made a joke about her claims for sexual harassment and emotional distress.

Last week, Lively’s lawyers filed a motion, claiming the "case involving high-profile individuals and allegations of sexual harassment" needed extra privacy to protect the involved parties from threats and potential witness tampering.

They also claimed identifying the two women from the "It Ends With Us" set would expose them to a "dangerous climate of threats, harassment, and intimidation."

Maitland Ward is spilling the beans on her clash with "Boy Meets World" costar Danielle Fishel now that she’s caught her breath -- and she's telling us she definitely didn’t expect to be cornered like that!

The actress-turned-adult entertainer opened up to TMZ, saying the heated "Pod Meets World" episode wasn’t about DF wanting to truly mend their estrangement, but more about wanting to "give it to her" -- so much so, Maitland says it felt like she suddenly morphed into villainous Regina George.

Catch the video, 'cause Maitland doesn't hold back -- she makes it crystal clear she wasn’t buying any of Danielle’s excuses, like "accidentally" unfriending her on Facebook and leaving her message unread for years.

11:46 AM PT -- Bhad Bhabie went on Instagram live and teased a possible Kanye collab. She posted a snippet of a song that featured Kanye on it, and fans are speculating there may be a Bhad Bhabie and Kanye remix soon.

Bhad Bhabie just dropped a new diss track -- "MS Whitman" -- targeting her nemesis Alabama Barker and making it abundantly clear -- she ain't playin'!

Bhabie's music video takes a direct shot at AB and her famous family, featuring a Travis Barker lookalike who plays the drums as BB twerks around him in white lingerie.

Lyrically, no one is safe either. At one point, Bhabie raps about the Kardashians while claiming Alabama's "stanky p***y got you kicked out the Kardashian house." In real life, Alabama is close with stepmom Kourtney Kardashian.

Was Blake Lively trying to recreate a scene from a 2011 film in last year's "It Ends with Us" that's led to controversy and jealousy? One fan's conspiracy theory has taken off online, and others are noting similarities.

In the 2011 comic book flick "Green Lantern," Blake's character dances with the hero -- her future husband, Ryan Reynolds -- and it seems to resemble a disputed scene in "It Ends with Us" that's part of a harassment lawsuit.

Blake is suing her "It Ends with Us" castmate and director Justin Baldoni for sexual harassment, and her lawsuit describes one scene in which the two slow-dance in a bar -- she says Baldoni nuzzled her neck and whispered into her ear, making her uncomfortable ... and no one was aware of the comment.

Danielle Fishel revisited her heated estrangement from her former "Boy Meets World" costar Maitland Ward -- and it's safe to say, it sparked one heck of a firestorm!

DF had Maitland on the latest "Pod Meets World" episode to chat about her switch to adult entertainment -- but things got heated when Danielle straight-up asked, "Do you hate us?" -- and that’s when the drama really kicked off.

You have to hear the back-and-forth between the two -- 'cause Maitland accused Danielle of actually hating on her.

50 Cent has been backing down both Big and Lil Meech on Instagram for days now ... but we're hearing his ex-'BMF' leading man can't be folded that easily!!!

TMZ Hip Hop obtained photos of Lil Meech kicking it with some well-known 50 Cent opps inside Lucky Strike Miami last night ... Floyd Mayweather and Rick Ross!!!

Sources for Meech tell us the actor met with Money Mayweather the night before and pulled up to the bowling alley with his brand partners to bless the legendary prizefighter with an exclusive merch drop ... the Red Letters x Wonce collab.

Alabama Barker says Bhad Bhabie's new look looks real familiar ... 'cause she sees it in the mirror everyday -- and, she's accusing the rapper of trying to look like her.

The daughter of Travis Barker and burgeoning music star posted to her Instagram story Thursday afternoon about Bhad's new look ... kicking off her post by writing that imitation is the best form of flattery -- clearly a shot aimed at BB.

Alabama adds she's just moving on with her life instead of paying attention to everything other people do ... but, jokes she appreciates all the love that her imitators are showing her.
