from The Morning Hustle Podcast · host Urban One Podcast Network

On today’s episode of The Morning Hustle with Lore’l, Kyle Santillian, and Alton Walker, the team kicks things off with an inspiring reminder not to let life’s frustrations knock you off your path. From there, they dive straight into a packed show full of entertainment news, wild listener calls, hip-hop debates, and HBCU updates.  In the Lo’Down, Ruby Rose steps forward with new claims about Nicki Minaj’s behavior on tour—saying Nicki allegedly fired someone after every show, including security she felt didn’t lift her offstage “seamlessly.” The hustle crew reacts to the comment and how it fits into the ongoing chatter about Nicki’s personality behind the scenes.  T.I. also makes headlines after debuting a fresh haircut and teasing his Kill the King album rollout. Alton and Kyle show love to Tip while joking about the mysterious “bald spot” that social media swore they spotted in the clip.  And Fat Joe stirs the pot by calling out J. Cole, criticizing him for backing away from the Kendrick beef. That comment sparks a passionate debate among the Hustle team, who break down why Cole bowed out, what fans misunderstood, and why the history between Cole and Kendrick matters more than the drama.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/the-morning-hustle See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
