50 Cent Taunts Diddy Again This Time With AI Image Of 2Pac https://brevmag.com/50-cent-taunts-diddy-again-this-time-with-ai-image-of-2pac/ https://brevmag.com/50-cent-taunts-diddy-again-this-time-with-ai-image-of-2pac/#respond Wed, 13 Dec 2023 14:14:46 +0000 https://brevmag.com/?p=60407 50 Cent continued his playful mockery of Diddy, sharing a fake image that seemingly uses AI technology to depict a fictional encounter between Diddy and a holographic version of 2Pac. This post follows recent legal troubles for Diddy, who was accused in a lawsuit of involvement in trafficking and assaulting a 17-year-old girl in 2003. 50 Cent has a history of teasing Diddy on social media, and this latest post is part of their ongoing banter.

“Karma is a mother fvcker brother love, brother love, brother love,” 50 wrote in the caption of the post, marking a reference to Diddy’s “Brother Love” moniker.

Diddy faced another legal challenge earlier this year when Cassie, his former girlfriend, sued him, accusing him of abuse during their relationship. However, the lawsuit was swiftly settled, with Diddy’s lawyer clarifying that the settlement “was in no way an admission of wrongdoing.” The mention of this recent lawsuit involving Cassie adds context to the ongoing legal matters surrounding Diddy. Regarding 2Pac, Diddy’s name made headlines earlier in the year after the arrest of Duane “Keffe D” Davis in connection with the 1996 murder of the late artist. It’s worth noting that rumors involving Diddy and 2Pac have circulated for years, and Keffe D’s arrest brought renewed attention to this aspect of the longstanding story.

Kanye West Reportedly Did Not Clear Backstreet Boys’ “Everybody” Sample For New Album https://brevmag.com/kanye-west-reportedly-did-not-clear-backstreet-boys-everybody-sample-for-new-album/ https://brevmag.com/kanye-west-reportedly-did-not-clear-backstreet-boys-everybody-sample-for-new-album/#respond Tue, 12 Dec 2023 13:27:43 +0000 https://brevmag.com/?p=60374 Kanye West faced a potential setback with his upcoming joint project with Ty Dolla Sign, “Vultures.” A snippet of a song from the album, featuring a sample of the Backstreet Boys’ “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back),” was previewed by Ye. However, the use of the sample may currently pose legal challenges, as copyright issues can arise when artists use samples without proper clearance or licensing. It remains to be seen how this potential hurdle will impact the album’s release. Sources linked to the Backstreet Boys told TMZ that Ye never reached out to the members of the band nor their management for permission to interpolate the song.

The song was also previewed live on Monday night in Miami, which brought out special guests including Offset, Freddie Gibbs, Lil Durk, Kodak Black, Chris Brown, and even Kanye’s daughter North West.

‘Grand Theft Auto’ Game Possibly Coming To Netflix https://brevmag.com/grand-theft-auto-game-possibly-coming-to-netflix/ https://brevmag.com/grand-theft-auto-game-possibly-coming-to-netflix/#respond Mon, 16 Oct 2023 20:05:55 +0000 https://brevmag.com/?p=49784 Netflix Games is reportedly in discussions with Rockstar Games to create its own version of Grand Theft Auto. The streaming platform is exploring the possibility of licensing a Grand Theft Auto game from publisher Take-Two Interactive for its mobile gaming service. This potential spin-off would not be Grand Theft Auto VI, which is expected to be released between spring 2024 and spring 2025.

It’s worth noting that Netflix Games is currently available only on mobile devices, and this move follows Rockstar’s previous release of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City on iOS and Android in the early 2010s. In addition, Netflix Games is also considering licensing deals to add popular mobile games to its catalog.

“Our goal has always been to have a game for everyone, and we are working hard to meet members where they are with an accessible, smooth, and ubiquitous service,” Mike Verdu, VP of Netflix Games, said in a statement back in August. This development comes as Netflix aims to expand its presence in interactive entertainment, with the initial announcement made in August.
