While new music from Kendrick Lamar and Wu-Tang Clan gave fans something to listen to this week, a growing rift inside the Young Money camp spilled over to social media with Drake and Tyga firing shots at one another on both Twitter and Instagram. Meanwhile, footage of Suge Knight menacing a photographer in connection with a robbery charge was released by TMZ. Elsewhere, Peter Rosenberg broke down his initial reactions to hearing new music from Kendrick Lamar.
Drake & Tyga Beef On Social Media
The internal Young Money beef escalated this week as Tyga and Drake fired back and forth on social media. It all started over the weekend when Tyga and Kylie Jenner posted Halloween photos of them dressed up. Subsequently, Blac Chyna, Tyga’s former girlfriend, liked some of Drake’s photos on Instagram. Tyga then jumped onto Twitter and responded by saying “That ain’t my hoe” (which has since been deleted). The Toronto native then fought back, sticking to Instagram, with a picture of Jenner in the background of a Drake gathering. And then Chyna decided to fire again, posting an Instagram picture (which has since been deleted) of her with Drake tagged in it and a caption of “Miss Me …..#neverforget [lips emoji].” The subtweeting seemed to end there. But it wasn’t over.

The back-and-forth continued with Blac Chyna airing out her relationship with Tyga on Twitter and then claiming her account was hacked by the rapper. Birdman and Drake’s right-hand Chubbs also aimed at Tyga as well.
