Machine Gun Kelly is firing back at his ex's ex Brian Austin Green by honoring him with an exclusive drink he's claiming will wash away any potential issues with adulthood -- and help him mind his own beeswax!!!

On Friday, MGK's 27 Club Coffee introduced the "Child Actor Margarita" today, an ALL-GREEN drink intended to "put a childish twist ... for those days when you just don't wanna act like an adult."

To add a little salt into the wound -- and margarita, the coffee club added a "9021-OMG" to the caption.

2:02 PM PT -- Law enforcement sources tell us Dylan and Paul got into a fight at work, where they observed surveillance footage of Dylan slapping Paul two times.

The warrant for his arrest was then issued and police located Dylan and arrested him.

Dylan John, the reggae rapper whose ego was even too big for Diddy on the 2nd iteration of his infamous "Making The Band" series, was arrested this week for allegedly not keeping his hands to himself when cops say he smacked another man's face!!!

Joe Budden has come to the realization that the Hip Hop culture -- and quality -- that sparked his successful endeavors, is LONG GONE.

While reviewing Lil Durk's newly released album on his podcast, Budden scoffed at the incarcerated Chicago rapper's attempt to sanitize his lyrics in the wake of catching murder-for-hire charges.

Budden's podcast co-host Officially Ice argued that Durk's incarceration put him in a tricky spot to feature content about criminal activity -- but Budden would hear none of it.

Kanye West is still traveling alone ... saying hello to some onlookers in Japan -- without Bianca Censori by his side.

The rapper was walking through Bvlgari -- a hotel in Tokyo -- when he flashed a peace sign for someone snapping a pic.

He's decked out in black here ... seemingly in a fine mood -- though he's still spending his trip all by himself. Last week, we got a pic of Kanye leaving a store in Tokyo, head down.

Slim Shady is officially grandpa Shady ... 'cause Eminem's daughter Hailie Jade has welcomed her first child!

Hailie made the announcement on Friday ... posting to Instagram snaps of her little boy, Elliot Marshall McClintock, who was born March 14, with the caption, "happy due date//3 weeks earthside little e."

As you know ... HJ -- a major social influencer in her own right -- is one of Eminem's three kids with ex-wife Kim Scott -- and she's married to Evan McClintock.

Post Malone is falling in love overseas ... The "I Had Some Help" hitmaker looked smitten with his girlfriend Christy Lee as they dined at a top-tier steakhouse in Paris Thursday evening.

Check out the snaps ... Post isn't too shy for some PDA as he leans into his new girlfriend, making her smile from ear to ear. She even goes in for a little smooch at one point. The couple seemed absolutely head over heels and unconcerned about being spotted.

The pair dined at Beefbar, a high-end steakhouse with roots in Monte Carlo that serves a Japanese wagyu filet for nearly $200.

DJ Akademiks is the latest media maven to interview The Artist Formerly Known As Kanye West -- and from his POV, the marbles are still there!!!

Big Ak joined Charles and Babcock on "TMZ Live" on Thursday to discuss his explosive stand-up chat with Ye, where the unpredictable rapper popped up on him mid-interview, draped in all-black KKK garb.

Ye tried to give Ak the heads up about his David Duke fashion sense .. but Ak says he misread the text and still got surprised.

Young Thug is not going back to jail ... the judge says his repost revealing the identity of a cop testifying in a murder trial did not violate his probation.

Judge Whitaker said Thug's social media post on Tuesday -- reposting a blogger's photo of the police investigator on the stand, and adding the caption, "biggest liar in the DA office" ... was not wise, but not enough for him to get locked up again.

The judge said "having reviewed the terms and conditions of Defendant's probation imposed by this Court, the Court declines to revoke Defendant's probation based on the violation asserted."

Rob49's New Orleans slang has spread to the entire country -- the platinum-selling rapper's "WTHELLY" catchphrase has completely engulfed social media!!!

TMZ Hip Hop linked up with Rob this week out in Burbank, CA and he tells us lingo was something he and his friends kicked out around -- and he decided to popularize the phrase over a banging beat!!!

It's carefree nonsense -- the type of stuff TikTok eats up. There's love and some hate but it's got everyone talking -- except for Rob's b-ball hero LeBron James!!!

Rubi Rose had the internet chirping in September when she claimed her relationship with Druski was a PR stunt ... but turns out she was the one spreading fake news!!!

Rubi was the latest guest on Adin Ross' stream, and during the segment to come clean about something, Rubi admitted her relationship with Druski had been legit ... until he pissed her off and she decided to lie about it.

Her apology wasn't anywhere near as loud as the fabrication ... Rubi went on social media to claim Druski had orchestrated the entire thing to boost his rep and later to brag about dumping him as dead weight.

Young Thug's freedom is gonna be short-lived if prosecutors get their way -- they want him locked up again for revealing a witness in a murder case on his social media.

Fulton County prosecutors filed a motion Wednesday asking the judge to revoke Thug's probation for putting law enforcement in danger by reposting a blogger's image of a police investigator who was testifying in a gang-related murder.

According to docs, the judge in that case ordered the media not to show the witness on TV, but the blogger defied that order ... posting a pic of the cop with the caption, "She doesn't want to be shown on screen? Well, here she is."

Rick Ross was legally called out last year for his Car & Bike Show not being wheelchair-accessible -- but he's promising this year's event will have a bunch of accommodations for the disabled community!!!

Attorneys for Darris Straughter -- a fan of Rick's -- are claiming a victory in court this week after Ross agreed to provide round-trip wheelchair-accessible shuttle service for the upcoming car show in Fayetteville, Georgia that will drop guests off at the event's designated handicap parking spots.

Straughter, who is disabled, sued the MMG rap star last August after claiming the wheelchair-accessible shuttle bus he had pre-arranged never showed up ... and the bike show refused to refund his ticket.

Bianca Censori has split from Kanye West and Ye desperately wants her back, at least according to the rapper's new song.

In a new song titled, "BIANCA," Ye's lyrics make it appear his wife left him over his social media rants where he voiced his support for Nazis and Adolf Hitler.

On the track, Ye raps, “My baby she ran away / But first she tried to get me committed / Not going to the hospital ’cause I am not sick I just do not get it.”

2:47 PM PT -- Atlanta Police and the Fulton County Medical Examiner just released Young Scooter's autopsy results, listing his death as an "accident" ... putting to bed the narrative Young Thug pushed that his friend was shot.

Per the ME, Scooter suffered an injury to his right thigh from the wooden fence he jumped during the chase.

The woman who made the 911 call that led to the police altercation that eventually ended rapper Young Scooter's life is stepping forward with her side of the story ... and it's a completely different one than the one she told Atlanta Emergency Services!!!

Demi Blanco, a reality star contestant on the Zeus Network series "Baddies," went live on Instagram Tuesday and claimed she was being treated unfairly by social media users angry over Scooter's death because they didn't know the whole side of the story.

Demi claims she called 911 to "protect herself" ... a total contradiction of the call she made on March 28 when she urged cops to come stop a naked woman from being beaten outside an Atlanta home.

3:48 PM PT -- A spokesperson for LeBron James tells TMZ ... “This is demonstrably false and doesn’t even merit a report or response. A basic internet search shows what LeBron was doing all of April 2015. He was playing basketball for the Cleveland Cavaliers and never in Miami.”

3:43 PM PT -- Brian Bieber, attorney for Brendan Paul tells TMZ ... “Is this an April Fool’s Day joke? If someone seriously filed this lawsuit, the allegations against Brendan are 100% false and literally impossible to have occurred.

Brendan was still in high school in Ohio at the time, having never even set foot in West Palm Beach in his life.  It’s unfortunate that anyone who pays the filing fee and gets directions to the Courthouse can file a frivolous lawsuit. We will be seeking an immediate dismissal of the case, and appropriate sanctions.”

12:06 PM PT -- Jay-Z’s attorney Alex Spiro tells TMZ ... "Mr Carter wasn't in Florida at that time to witness this incident - he was engaged in easily findable public activities that prove he was not at this event. This is more nonsense that erodes the trust in our "justice" system"

11:45 AM PT -- A rep for Gloria and Emilio Estefan tells TMZ ... "Gloria and Emilio Estefan strongly deny the allegations made.  The property in question was never a home where Gloria and Emilio resided, but it was rather a house they owned for family use. There were no parties thrown at that property between 2012 and 2019. We have all necessary documentation to support these facts and will provide it to the court."

A new Diddy accuser claims he was sexually assaulted, raped and humiliated at a "freak-off" party in Miami ... and he says Jay-Z, Beyoncé, LeBron James and Gloria Estefan saw him in rough shape.

Diddy is being sued for human trafficking by a Florida man named Manzaro Joseph , who claims Diddy humiliated him at an April 2015 birthday party for King Combs by strapping a penis to his face and parading him around.

In the lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, Manzaro claims he was drugged and transported to Star Island in Miami for the big party in April 2015 ... he says he was first dragged into the back entrance of Emilio and Gloria Estefan's mansion, where a panicked Gloria saw his "drug-induced stupor" and demanded someone call an ambulance.

Fans suspect parts of Drake's "Nokia" video are ribbing at Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl performance a lil bit -- and DJ Whoo Kid loves every bit of the spectacle!!!

TMZ Hip Hop caught up with the SiriusXM vet at LAX on Tuesday and he agrees Drake earned his crown as the "Petty Troll King" this week with the first visual from his recent project "$exy $ongs 4 U."

Towards the end of "Nokia," Drake takes center stage on a white platform surrounded by dancers, reminiscent of the imagery on K. Dot's record-breaking halftime show --  Whoo Kid calls it a Bobby Fischer-sized chess move!
