🎙️ On this week with “808’s & Convo”: Drama, Arrests & Peace Talks — Hip Hop’s Wild Week

This week in hip hop, we’re unpacking 50 Cent’s latest beef with the “Let’s Rap About It” podcast, the growing backlash from everyone from DJ Akademiks to Cam’ron and beyond what sparked it, who’s taking shots, and what it all says about the state of rap media vs. rap legends.

Then we shift to R&B controversy as Trey Songz lands in trouble again. We chart his past industry tensions and legal issues, leading up to his most recent arrest in New York City; charged with assault after allegedly punching a nightclub employee and facing criminal mischief for damaging property at a Manhattan hookah lounge. We break down the incident, the charges, and what it could mean for his career moving forward.

Finally, we highlight a peace mission from 21 Savage, who’s been publicly calling on Atlanta’s biggest names; including Young Thug, Gunna, Lil Baby and others to let pride go, squash their beefs, and bring unity back to the ATL rap scene. It’s a rare moment of reconciliation in a genre that often thrives off conflict, and we weigh its impact.

Tune in for insights, reactions, and unfiltered takes on the week’s most talked-about moments in music culture.
