Celebrity Feuds

Millyz has a score to settle with Machine Gun Kelly, but has no idea when they'll get it cracking ... because he thinks Kelly's secretly scared of him.

The Massachusetts-bred rapper tells TMZ Hip Hop he didn't get into the biz to create a white rapper beef sideshow ... but claims MGK has worked his last nerve, and been working overtime behind the scenes to make sure he doesn't get any of his looks.

Millyz says he didn't appreciate MGK's unprovoked "Renegade" shot at Jack Harlow -- especially after experiencing what he says were "weird" encounters in person.

For years, Millyz says MGK has faked like he doesn't know who he is, and accuses him of gatekeeping over threats he'll become more popular.

The fight for streams may be slim pickings, but Millyz tells us he's been able to make his dough in spite of the alleged blackball attempts from MGK.

Flavor Flav no tiene más que palabras amables para su compañero de Public Enemy Chuck D, en el período previo a su nuevo single "Every Where Man", y aunque no hablaron por un tiempo, insiste en que no había mala onda.

Tenemos a Flav en "TMZ Live" el viernes, y nos dijo que ha estado plagado de preguntas sobre cuando se reunirían, pero dice que no podría haber una reunión porque nunca se separaron, simplemente se tomaron un largo descanso.

A pesar de algunos años de drama entre ellos, Flav dice que ama a Chuck, y dice que el sentimiento es mutuo.

Reconoce que a veces la gente no se pone de acuerdo, y en esos casos, dice que ambos dieron un paso atrás y se mantuvieron en movimiento.

En cuanto a la música, Flav está encantado con su nuevo single, en el que participa Chuck y que saldrá a la venta el 10 de enero. También viene con obras de arte de un diseñador gráfico llamado Aimee Johnson.

Como la mayoría de las cosas este año, hay una conexión con Taylor Swift, sí, incluso con Public Enemy. Flav dice que los Swifties en las redes sociales le recomendaron a Aimee cuando posteó que necesitaba algo de ayuda para el arte de su trabajo.

Échale un vistazo al video, Flav —que es un Swiftie importante— dejó caer una analogía deportiva en nosotros para transmitir su agradecimiento a los fans de Tay Tay.

Flavor Flav has nothing but kind words for his Public Enemy partner Chuck D in the run-up to their new single "Everywhere Man" -- and while they didn't talk for a while, he insists there was no real beef.

We've got Flav on "TMZ Live" Friday, and he told us he's been plagued by queries on when P.E. would reunite -- but he says there couldn't be a reunion because they never broke up -- they merely took a long break.

Despite a few years of headline-grabbing drama between them, Flav says he loves Chuck -- and the feeling is mutual.

He acknowledges sometimes people don't see eye to eye, and in those instances, he says they both pull it back together and keep things moving.

On the music front, Flav is ecstatic with his new single, which features Chuck and is set for wide release on Jan. 10. It also comes with cool artwork by a graphic designer named Aimee Johnson.

Like most things this year, there's a Taylor Swift connection -- yes, even to Public Enemy. Flav says Swifties on social media actually pointed him in Aimee's direction when he posted about needing artistic help.

Check out the video ... Flav, who is a major Swiftie himself, dropped a sports analogy on us to relay his thanks to Tay Tay's fans.

Nicki Minaj just became the female rapper with the most multiple No. 1 albums ... which created the perfect opportunity for her ace, Foxy Brown, to flex her pettiness on the competition!!!

As you know, last week, Nicki made a splash with her new album "Pink Friday 2" -- it's all set to top the Billboard 200 this week.

She wouldn't even let Kanye West get involved in the momentum the album is so hot!!!

The project gives Nicki the record for most No. 1 albums by a female rapper ... she'd previously been tied with Foxy, whose record was set back in 1999.

Foxy collaborated with Nicki on her last album and didn't waste time hopping on IG to congratulate her ... as well as throw sneaky shade at her rivals, such as Lil Kim.

Foxy gloated all over a fan tweet that implied Kim had the same amount of time in her career to snag some No. 1's for herself ... but didn't.

The "Ill Na Na" rapper says she'll also be putting herself back in the history books with a new album next year -- her first since 2008.

La última actuación en directo de Anita Baker está recibiendo hate luego de que se pusiera irritable con el público en Texas. Parte de esto fue capturado en video.

La legendaria cantante estaba haciendo un show en el Toyota Center de Houston el viernes por la noche para una audiencia bastante sólida, pero en ciertos momentos, durante el concierto, Anita parece haberse ofuscado un poco con algunas personas de la primera fila.

Hay dos videos circulando en línea en este momento. Uno muestra a Anita diciendole a algunas personas que estaban justo debajo de ella cerca del escenario que dejaran de grabar en medio de una canción.

Hay otro momento en el que se puede ver y escuchar a Anita pidiéndole a los de seguridad que echen a la gente.

En general, esto parece haber dejado un mal sabor de boca en el público, con algunos en línea quejándose de que Anita estaba más preocupada por discutir con un selecto grupo de fans que hacer el mejor trabajo que podía en el escenario para todos. Otros afirmaron que parecía haberse saltado algunas letras, y alegaron que su actuación, en general, fue relativamente efímera y algo descuidada.

Ahora, hay un buen puñado de personas que defienden a Anita, diciendo que la gente de la primera fila estaba, de hecho, actuando y provocandola. Otros dijeron que la actuación, en general, fue genial.

Por supuesto, el telón de fondo más grande de esto es la disputa con Babyface de a principios de este año. Donde se metió con él y sus fans en la Twitter-esfera.

Anita Baker's latest live performance is catching a little heat after she apparently got testy with the audience out in Texas -- parts of which were captured on video.

The legendary crooner was doing a show in Houston's Toyota Center Friday night and playing to a pretty solid-sized audience ... but at certain points during the gig, AB appears to have gotten into it a bit with some folks down in the front row.

There are 2 videos, in particular, that are circulating online right now -- one shows Anita telling some people right below her near the stage to stop recording ... in the middle of a song.

There's another moment where Anita could be seen/heard asking for security to boot folks.

Overall, this seems to have left a bad taste in people's mouths -- with some online complaining that Anita was more concerned with arguing with a select few ticket-buyers than doing the best job she could onstage. Others claimed she seemed to miss some lyrics ... and alleged her performance, overall, was relatively short-lived and somewhat sloppy.

Now, there's a good handful of people defending Anita ... saying the folks in the front row were, in fact, acting up and testing AB. Others said the performance, at large, was great.

Of course, the larger backdrop to this is the Babyface feud she was in earlier this year while on the road -- during which she got into it with both him and his fans in the Twitter-sphere.

Gunna todavía no está tomando ningún riesgo con su vida mientras el juicio de Young Thug YSL se entrampa, y está permitiendo que unos guardias armados vigilen su espalda.

El rapero de "Fukumean" fue visto haciendo compras con sus guardaespaldas en Saks Fifth Avenue en Beverly Hills esta semana, un escenario ideal para gastar dinero en efectivo y no tener que preocuparse de que te roben cuando lo sacas.

Estas compras en particular ocurrieron sin problemas, pero este año ya fue encarado por un completo extraño y más enemigos podrían estar al acecho en cualquier parte.

Su ex compañero en "Drip So Hard" Lil Baby dejó caer una nueva canción titulada "350" el viernes que parecía apuntar a Gunna. Esta decía: "I know one day it's gon' hit me/Bro ain't never comin' back/Ain't never say nothin' 'bout it, n****, you know you a rat".

La seguridad de Gunna le hará ganar puntos con los OGs o leyendas del rap, Charlamagne Tha God hizo hincapié en la importancia de contar con guardaespaldas profesionales cuando opinió sobre el desastre de Nardo Wick con nosotros a principios de este mes.

Gunna still isn't taking any chances with his life as Young Thug's YSL trial trudges on -- even for a simple day of shopping, he's got hired guns watching his back and his front.

The "Fukumean" rapper was spotted shopping with his armed bodyguards at Saks Fifth Avenue in Bev Hills this week -- which might sound like the ideal scenario to spend cash and not worry about being robbed. But, Gunna clearly thinks otherwise.

This particular shopping trip went down without a hitch but remember ... he was confronted by a complete rando this year, and he's gotta be thinking more enemies could be lurking just about anywhere.

His former "Drip So Hard" brother Lil Baby dropped a new song titled "350" Friday that appeared to target Gunna ... "I know one day it's gon' hit me/Bro ain't never comin' back/Ain't never say nothin' 'bout it, n****, you know you a rat."

Gunna's heavy-duty security should earn him brownie points with the OGs ... Charlamagne Tha God stressed the importance of having pros while discussing the Nardo Wick disaster with us earlier this month.

Kid Cudi was clearly in a much better mood than Kanye West Thursday night as he officially ended their beef in Las Vegas -- a total shocker to many after Cudi vowed to forever cut all ties with him just last year!!!

The “Kids See Ghosts” duo were spotted hugging, and briefly speaking during Kanye’s Vegas rave for his “Vultures" album.

Kanye and Cudi feuded through all of 2022 -- Ye was upset Cudi chose to keep his friendship with Pete Davidson as he dated Kim Kardashian ... which forced Cudi to label him a dinosaur in the music industry, and swear to never work with him again.

You can see Cudi was far more inviting than Kanye, who pulled away after a few moments Thursday night. It's unclear if the reunion happened before or after Ye went on a wacky rant in which he lumped himself in with Jesus Christ AND Hitler!

Everyone else seemed to be having a good time and enjoying the music ... Cher's boyfriend Alexander “AE” Edwards and several women can also be spotted catching a vibe to the new music ... before the festivities got shut down by cops.

Bam Margera is up to his old tricks ... lending his "Jackass" experience to a new group of wild daredevils and helping them film a brutal knockout video.

The former "Jackass" star shot a couple stunts over the weekend in L.A. with the MadHouse Boys... throwing on a boxing glove and unleashing some haymakers to the head.

In the footage, obtained by TMZ, you see Bam sneaking up on one of the MadHouse Boys from behind and punching him in the side of the head, and it looks like it hurts ... which, we guess, is the whole damn point.

For the uninitiated, MadHouse is a next-generation stunt group ... on social media they say they are basically like "if 'Jackass' and your mom had a baby." Great visual.

We're told the MadHouse guys reached out to Bam because they wanted him to be part of one of their videos.

Megan Thee Stallion is riled up after seeing her ex-boyfriend Pardison Fontaine spill his version of their toxic breakup ... which she says is all a fabricated fairy tale!!!

Meg set it off Wednesday morning on IG Live, where she doubled down on her "Cobra" claims that Pardi cheated on her. She claims he caught him getting oral sex in their home, and says he only attempted to switch the narrative to fit his own diss song.

The "Savage" rapper then directed her anger at her ex-friend Kelsey Harris and Tory Lanez in light of social media spreading a purported statement from Tory's bodyguard on the night Meg was shot in June 2020.

Megan reiterated that Kelsey didn't shoot her and laid into her former BFF for going mum ... figuring she was either paid off or in fear for her life.

Megan went on to remind everyone who she says DID do it ... namely, Tory Lanez, who's sitting in prison. In his purported statement, the bodyguard stated he didn't see who shot Megan, which doesn't change the verdict upheld in court.

She also ripped social media "lawyers" for getting their facts wrong ... she says the case was won in court, but uneducated fans care about online opinions more.

Pardi's repeatedly said he's trying to move past the situation, and Megan says she's been doing the same ... going hard in the gym but now loathes coming onto social media because it sucks out her joy.

Megan Thee Stallion está furiosa después de que su exnovio Pardison Fontaine soltara su versión de su tóxica ruptura, ¡¡¡la que dice es todo un cuento inventado!!!

Meg puso todo en marcha el miércoles por la mañana en Instagram Live, donde redobló las afirmaciones que hizo en su canción "Cobra", de que Pardi la engañó. Ella afirma que lo sorprendió teniendo sexo oral en su casa y dice que solo trató de cambiar la narrativa para que calzara con su propia canción para despreciarla.

La rapera de "Savage" luego dirigió su ira contra su ex amiga Kelsey Harris y Tory Lanez. Esto, a la luz de las redes sociales que están difundiendo una supuesta declaración del guardaespaldas de Tory la noche en que Meg recibió un disparo en junio de 2020.

Megan reiteró que Kelsey no le disparó y criticó a su ex mejor amiga por guardar silencio, imaginando que le pagaron o temía por su vida.

Megan pasó a recordarle a todos quién lo hizo, Tory Lanez, quien está sentado en la cárcel. En su supuesta declaración, el guardaespaldas declaró que no vio quién le disparó a Megan, lo que no cambia el veredicto confirmado en el tribunal.

Ella también apuntó a "los abogados" de las redes sociales por obtener hechos erróneos. Dice que el caso fue ganado en la corte, pero los aficionados sin educación se preocupan más por las opiniones que circulan en línea.

Pardi ha dicho en repetidas ocasiones que está tratando de superar la situación y Megan dice que ella ha estado haciendo lo mismo, ejercitando duro en el gimnasio, pero ahora aborrece abrir las redes sociales, ya que absorbe su alegría.

Pardison Fountaine is officially putting the Hottie era behind him after his split with Megan Thee Stallion -- he's got a new girl, new music and even new listening habits!!!

TMZ Hip Hop chopped it up with the versatile artist/songwriter Tuesday, and he got a kick out of being labeled in a "public relationship" with his new boo, dancehall star Jada Kingdom.

Pardi says he's very much claiming JK, but says all he did was step out for a date night -- and it was the public who blew up their spot. Whoops!

The fan interest shouldn't come as a surprise to Pardi -- he was in a very high-profile relationship with Meg and felt some blowback last month when she dropped her "Cobra" diss track toward him.

Pardi operates in the lover's lane, not a fighter's ring, and gave props to all the female rappers on his radar -- Sexxy Redd, Doja Cat, Latto and GloRilla all rank at the top for him.

He admits he even gave Nicki Minaj's new "Pink Friday 2" album a listen ... a decision that would've put him in the crosshairs had he still been with Meg.

Pardison Fountaine está oficialmente dejando atrás la era Hottie después de su ruptura con Megan Thee Stallion, ¡tiene una nueva chica, nueva música e incluso nuevos hábitos de escucha!

TMZ Hip Hop charló con el versátil artista y compositor el martes y él se divirtió al ser etiquetado en una "relación pública" con su nueva novia, la estrella de dancehall Jada Kingdom.

Pardi dice que está interesado en Jada, y todo lo que hizo fue tener una cita nocturna y el público simplemente explotó.

El interés de los fans no debería ser una sorpresa para Pardi, que estaba en una relación de muy alto perfil con Meg y sintió algo de retroceso el mes pasado cuando ella lanzó su "Cobra" contra él.

Pardi opera desde el amor y no desde la violencia, y le mostró su apoyo a todas las raperas en su radar Sexxy Redd, Doja Cat, Latto y GloRilla todas están en la parte superior para él.

Admite que incluso escuchó el nuevo álbum de Nicki Minaj "Pink Friday 2", una decisión que le habría puesto en el punto de mira si todavía hubiera estado con Meg.

Jada Pinkett Smith says she and Will may have been completely dunzo by now, were it not for literally having some sense slapped into them ... indirectly, of course, because poor Chris Rock was the actual target.

Jada further opened up about the famous slap to Daily Mail, saying, "I nearly didn't even attend the Oscars that year, but I'm glad I did," adding, "I call it the 'holy slap' now because so many positive things came after it."

Jada said, "After all those years trying to figure out if I would leave Will's side, it took that slap for me to see I will never leave him."

As Jada revealed in her memoir, she and Will have been separated since 2016, but judging from their public statements since the book's release, they're back on track, although the scope of their relationship is still a mystery.

Will had previously cosigned on his wife's take, saying back in October ... “We have had a very, very long and tumultuous [relationship]. We call it ‘brutiful.’ It was brutal and beautiful at the same time.”

Kid Capri thinks it's time for Taylor Swift and Kim Kardashian to end their feud, but not in a grand face-off for public consumption -- instead, he says settling scores behind closed doors is the way to go.

We caught the "World Famous" DJ out in NYC this week shortly after we broke the news Kim still hasn't made nice with TS after the 2016 phone convo between Kanye and Taylor -- the one Kim recorded to make it seem like Taylor was cool with the infamous "Famous" lyrics about her.

Kid Capri looks fondly back at his times hanging with the Kardashians -- he deejayed Khloé Kardashian and Lamar Odom's wedding back in '09 -- but says right and wrong aren't equals and KK should do the right thing like a Spike Lee joint.

Despite the tensions, KC says it would behoove Kim and Taylor to cut out all media -- social included -- from their talks, so a genuine breakthrough can be had.

BTW, he's not excusing Kanye from his role in all this, especially if he never actually got Taylor's green light to include the racy line where calls her a "bitch."

Taylor said the fallout from the secretly recorded phone call made her move to a "foreign country" and mistrust almost everyone around her.
