DDG vs Reggie (Lil Rodney Son) drama explained: All about the viral controversy between the two rappers
The internet's latest Twitch-tainment war is between none other than DDG and Reggie, aka Lil Rodney Son. What started as a casual reaction to a DDG album has spiraled into a full-blown back-and-forth involving music, relationships, fatherhood, and even the loss of family members.
And yes, it's messy. Here's everything you need to know!
It All Started With a Reaction Clip
Reggie was doing what most streamers do: reacting to viral content. During a Twitch stream, he saw a TikTok clip of DDG discussing how people were faking support for his music. Apparently, DDG felt Reggie was throwing shade, calling his album mid, even though he'd previously praised it.
DDG clapped back on his own stream, saying:
'You just listened to my old album...and said it was hard, bro. Like, stop faking, bro.'
He even told Reggie to 'watch full clips' before speaking on his name.
Reggie Fires Back — And He's Not Holding Back
Reggie wasn't here to play either. He doubled down saying he
never said the whole album was good
, just that maybe 'one or two tracks were decent.' He also called DDG out for being
too pressed about a relationship situation
that had nothing to do with him.
His words?
'You're a grown a** man, bro. Like, why are you even worried about another man's relationship?'
And then came the spice:
'Sometimes you got to mind your business.'
Reggie Brings Up DDG's Family And It Gets Real Personal
Just when we thought this might stay music-related, Reggie brought up DDG's son, Halo, and his relationship with Halle Bailey. In a now-viral moment, Reggie said:
'Where your son at, n***a?'
He mocked DDG for being involved in Twitch drama while having father duties. He even said DDG would have to
'live with this s**t for the rest of your life.'

At this point, it was no longer about music — it was about life choices, family, and deep personal stuff.
DDG Goes Nuclear From Italy
DDG wasn't about to let that slide. From an IRL Twitch stream in Italy, he launched a brutal response with the title:
'REGGIE DAD GONE.'
He told his viewers:
'I've lost all respect for that little a** boy… You bring my family into it, I'll bring yours into it.'
Yeah, he went scorched earth. The gloves were off. No limits.
Reggie Responds (Again), But Chooses Restraint
Despite being furious, Reggie said he wouldn't go as far as dissing the dead.
'Mentally, you gotta protect your peace, gang.'
He also called out DDG for using his late father as a background on stream, calling it 'lame' and 'unnecessary.'
In an era where clout is currency, this feud blurred lines. What started as a music reaction ended up dragging in kids, dead parents, and real-life wounds. And while some fans are calling it 'content,' others think it went too far.

WWE SummerSlam 2025 Night 2 Pre-Show Breakdown (August 3, 2025): Full Matchcard, Storylines and What's at Stake
SummerSlam 2025 (Image via X) Night 2 of WWE SummerSlam 2025 is only a little while away as the pre-show inches towards its conclusion. The MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, is once again packed to the brim, as the second night of the big event is set to produce even bigger fights than the first. The Street Fight between John Cena and Cody Rhodes is, of course, the main event of the night, but the other five matches set to take place tonight are equally exciting. As Triple H posted, WWE is currently in stealth mode, and everything is pretty hush-hush for tonight. So let's take a look at what we know so far, and what WWE has in store for the fans for Night 2 of SummerSlam. SummerSlam 2025 Night 2 match cards in order (expected) WWE Women's World Championship : Naomi (c) vs. IYO SKY vs. Rhea Ripley WWE Tag Team Championship: Wyatt Sicks (c) vs. #DIY vs. Street Profits vs. Fraxiom vs. Motor City Machine Guns vs. Andrade & Rey Fenix (TLC match) WWE Women's Intercontinental Championship: Becky Lynch (c) vs. Lyra Valkyria WWE United States Championship: Solo Sikoa (c) vs. Jacob Fatu Dominik Mysterio vs. AJ Styles WWE Undisputed Championship: John Cena (c) vs. Cody Rhodes (Street Fight) The WWE Women's World Championship is going to open Night 2 A lot of chatter has been ongoing about the WWE Women's World Championship fight that will take place tonight in a three-way match. Naomi is the current title holder, after pinning IYO SKY at Evolution, when she very shockingly cashed in her Money in the Bank briefcase at the very end of the show. Now both Rhea Ripley and Sky will be back with vengeance to get the belt, but Naomi is not someone they can easily toy with. These three women are at the top of their game when it comes to WWE's women's division. And this three-way match will be bloody, brutal, and brilliant, because that's just how good they are. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Signs Of Heart Attack That Shouldn't Be Ignored (Take A Look) TheDaddest Undo This match is supposed to open Night 2, and given that Ripley and Sky were the closing act at Evolution 2025, this seems pretty fitting. WWE Tag Team Championship TLC match The WWE Tag Team Championship match will be chaotic to say the least, and everyone knows it. With 6 tag teams competing in a Table, Ladder, and Chair match for the tag team belts, which will be hanging on top of the ring, fans already know what to expect, except maybe who will finally come out on top. John Cena and Cody Rhodes to end the night in a spectacular fashion Now that John Cena has turned Baby Face once more, or so it seems, is it time for Cody Rhodes to do the unthinkable, and turn heel? Or will it be a double heel and Cena never actually turned Face at all? Tonight's Street Fight match between these two heavyweights, who were last seen sharing a beer together after Rhodes welcomed Cena back, will be the last match of the night, and the action is supposed to be unmatched. Rhodes has been saying from the beginning that he wanted to face the real John Cena, and it looks like that's exactly what he is about to get. But as it has been said quite a few times by now, will Cody be able to hone in on his instincts and do what needs to be done to face Cena tonight? Whatever happens, WWE is very tight-lipped about it. With only a few minutes before the show starts, the crowd is absolutely going wild, and we can't wait to see what happens tonight.

Optical Illusion: Only an animal lover can spot the hidden glasses around this cute orangutan in just 10 seconds
Image credit: Brightside Optical illusions have a magical way of tickling the brain. What looks like a simple photo often hides a surprise that many might miss. And today's illusion is no exception! It features an adorable orangutan relaxing in a forest, but hidden somewhere in the scene is a sneaky pair of glasses. The twist? The challenge is to find it in just 10 seconds! So, do animal lovers have a sharper eye? Let's find out. At first look, the image seems calm and cute, an orangutan resting peacefully among green leaves. Nothing seems out of place. But the moment someone is told there's something hidden, the brain jumps into detective mode. Image credit: Brightside That's how optical illusions work. They play with how the brain sees shapes, patterns, and colours. What's obvious to one person may be completely invisible to another. And in this case, the task is to locate the glasses quietly resting somewhere near the orangutan. This brain teaser is gaining attention on the internet, with people across social media challenging each other to beat the 10-second timer. While it might sound simple, it's anything but easy. The glasses have been cleverly blended into the background, making them nearly invisible to the untrained eye. Some claim that only true animal lovers or people with strong observational skills can spot the hidden object in time. Of course, it's all in fun, but there's no harm in putting those eyes to the test! Need a hint? Still searching for the mysterious glasses? Don't worry, a little nudge never hurts.

Just beneath the upper arm, a small outline blends perfectly into the fur. The frames have a similar brownish colour, making them look like part of the orangutan's body. The brain tends to skip over such camouflaged details unless something really stands out. That's why this challenge is such a tricky one! Why are optical illusions so addictive? Challenges like this one are not just fun; they also give the brain a bit of a workout. These illusions test visual perception, the process by which the brain interprets what the eyes see. In doing so, they improve focus, attention to detail, and sometimes even memory. For some people, solving such puzzles offers a small dose of satisfaction. For others, it's about proving they can spot what many others miss. Get the latest lifestyle updates on Times of India, along with Friendship Day wishes , messages and quotes !
