Drake Cryptically Warns His ‘Next Chapter' May ‘Leave You Feeling Uneasy'
Drake appears to be working on his next era, though he's taken to social media to warn that it might not be for everyone. The Canadian musician shared a post on Instagram on Monday (March 10), with its cryptic content swiftly generating much speculation as to what it might be referring to. 'U know I grew up non confrontational and always treated this game as a sport where my pen won gold, but my these days the podium has been hard for all of us to ignore,' the post began.

Drake had previously promised another round in their ongoing feud was on the horizon, with Lamar later addressing the 6 God's claim while announcing his halftime performance. 'You know there's only one opportunity to win a championship,' Lamar said. 'No round twos.' As Drake continues his post though, he hints that whatever comes next may be uncomfortable for some, adding that an unidentified individual has been sending him texts. 'I understand that this next chapter may leave you feeling uneasy, but I hope you see my honesty as clarity not charity that answers some questions especially about the unanswered texts you've been sending me,' the post concludes. The cryptic nature of Drake's latest message is continued in the choice of photos used in the post, which – alongside selfies, live footage, and a screengrab from the 2017 film Phantom Thread – also includes an image of two Zofran pills, which the Mayo Clinic notes are 'to prevent nausea and vomiting that is caused by cancer medicines (chemotherapy) or radiation therapy.' Specifics relating to Drake's upcoming plans remain unclear currently, but his update follows the release of his $ome $exy $ongs 4 U collaborative album with PartyNextDoor on Feb. 14, and the postponement of a number of Australian and New Zealand tour dates due to a 'scheduling conflict.'

50 Cent trolls Jim Jones and Floyd Mayweather with an AI 'Rocky III' edit
50 Cent is at it again with his signature trolling, this time involving Jim Jones and Floyd Mayweather. The rapper-turned-filmmaker posted and later deleted an AI-created video on Instagram, which humorously reimagines a scene from Rocky III with Jones, Cam'ron, and Mayweather. In the video, Jim Jones portrays Clubber Lang, challenging Cam'ron's Rocky. Meanwhile, Mayweather, as Cam's trainer Mickey, advises him not to take the fight and stay retired. This playful clip is just the latest salvo in the ongoing back-and-forth between 50 Cent and his rivals. The feud traces back to 50's appearance on Cam'ron's Talk With Flee show, where the two rappers reminisced about their past diss tracks. The conversation stirred up old tensions, including 50's history with The Diplomats and his comments about their former label. Jim Jones, who got involved after 50 and Cam discussed his past performances with The Diplomats, recently challenged Cam to a $10 million boxing match on The Breakfast Club, saying, 'You with Mayweather and 'em… I'll meet you in any boxing ring. Now go make some jokes about that on your next show. I'll box your head off.' 50 Cent, never one to shy away from stirring the pot, added fuel to the fire by turning the situation into a comedic moment. Meanwhile, Jones' roasting of Mase over his weight, and the back-and-forth about Gervonta Davis' recent draw, only added to the drama. The hilarious video edits from Instagram page HolliHoodNews have gone viral, further fueling the ongoing social media spectacle.
