Puff Daddy and Drake’s scuffle in a Miami nightclub early on Monday morning was the week’s biggest Hip Hop news and revelations about the fight poured in shortly after. Elsewhere, Lil Wayne vaguely announced that he’ll remain loyal to Cash Money Records after airing out some public grievances on Twitter about his album delay. Finally, with J. Cole’s new album released at the top of the week, news that the album might possibly bring the biggest first week sales numbers for a Hip Hop album yet in 2014 followed shortly after. Still, when Trick Trick caught wind of some of Cole’s lines on the song “Firing Squad,” which features an underhanded reference to Eminem, he threatened to “lock the gate on” Cole in a string of comments on Instagram.
