Nothing like a good-natured roast between close friends. On Thursday (May 14th), Joey Bada$$ and Denzel Curry linked up over Instagram live where they hilariously dunked on each other's music. At one point during the exchange, Joey began roasting Denzel for the lack of appeal that his hypothetical after-parties possess.
"First of all, I’ve never even heard of a Denzel Curry after-party," Joey declares. "Who the f*ck wants to go to a Denzel Curry after-party?!" Denzel fires back by taking a jab at Joey's rap style, exclaiming, "Man who the hell wanna hear 'boom-bap' in the club?!"

Denzel continues to drag Joey's discography, specifying that he "ain’t tryna hear" Joey's debut mixtape, 1999, in the club. "I'm tryna hear DaBaby," he adds. Joey admits that while he "ain’t got no records in the club" at least he can get people to come to his after-parties.

"Play got-damn ‘Survival Tactics’ [in the club], what’s gon' happen?" Denzel points out, referring to one of the 'boom-bap' joints off 1999. "Lit," Joey insists. "You gon’ get punched in the face." However, Denzel disagrees. "My shit is gon’ get lit,” he retorts. “Your shit gon’ be like, ‘Yea..yea…'" While they're clearly engaging in some lighthearted ridicule in this instance, these two rappers are used to battling it out with each other. Last November, Joey and Denzel went head-to-head in a rap duel for the ages at Red Bull Music's Zeltron World Wide. Perhaps they'll set out for round two over IG live sometime soon now that they've got all this free time (and clearly love one-upping each other in a friendly manner).
Young Thug’s GF Roasts His Long Toes & Snoring Patterns
Young Thug and Jerikka Karlae are "So Much Fun" on Instagram Live together.
Hilarity typically ensues whenever Young Thug gets on Instagram Live with his girlfriend Jerikka Karlae. The two have been together for years and are pretty comprehensive when it comes to each other's habits. Most recently, the two got on Instagram Live where Jerikka called out her boyfriend for his habits in the bedroom.
The conversation began with Karlae asking Thug what she should talk about on her next YouTube video which led the rapper to troll his girlfriend about the possibilities of a coronavirus cure. "They got a vaccine for it. For corona. It gets rid of that shit in 16 minutes," Thug joked before suggesting that Karlae has coronavirus. "I think you got corona, baby, 'cause you scratch yourself when you sleep," Thugger added before Jerikka completely flamed him for his sleeping habits.
"Listen, have you heard yourself snore?" She asked. "No, for real. You don't even breathe," she added before imitating him.
Elsewhere during their session, Karlae put Thug on blast over his toes being "so long."
"You got pretty feet but Jeff, your toes so long, bro," she said.
"That's cap," he replied. Jerikka then told Thug to expose his toes for the world before doubling down.
"Jeff, your toes so long, bro," she added, though Thug clarified his feet are only ashy because he just got out of the shower.
Michael Blackson & Mike Epps Have A Roast Off
The comedy lords have blessed us with a roast off on IG Live between Michael Blackson and Mike Epps.
In the current times we're in, rappers, producers, and songwriters have faced off on Instagram Live for soundclashes of sorts. Going song-for-song, we've witnessed some of the greatest musical artists of our time duke it out to see who has the stronger catalog. Thankfully, these sorts of battles have sparked even more clashes of sorts, including among comedians.

Most recently, Michael Blackson and Mike Epps went face-to-face on Instagram Live and gave the people want they wanted -- a roast off. The two legendary comedians dished out jokes on each other. "Aye Mike, your mom is half coyote, half squirrel," Epps told Blackson. "Mike, your mom and your pops is the same n***a. Fuck you," Blackson quipped.
But in a matter of moments, they teamed up to troll the coronavirus pandemic as a whole. Mike Epps joked that it's gotten so bad in New York that the Statue of Liberty was rushed to the hospital while Michael Blackson joked that coronavirus is so big that it has Ebola jealous.
Even in the midst of all the roasting, Mike Epps and Michael Blackson did shower each other with flowers for the work they've put in over the years. Perhaps, we'll get to see them back on screen together soon. The last time they starred in the film alongside each other was for 2016's Meet The Blacks.
Tory Lanez Roasts Drake For Coronavirus Test
Tory Lanez showed up in Drake’s comments with a coronavirus troll-job that was just too on point.
Tory Lanez has a history of trolling his friend Drake. The two haven’t always been on the best of terms but, in recent years, they turned their competitive feud around and became the best of buds. Usually, the two Toronto natives can be found in the comments section of Instagram, playfully roasting one another with jokes that hit pretty close to home. That was the case again this morning when Tory Lanez brought up Drake’s highly-publicized coronavirus test.
After hanging out with Kevin Durant, who tested positive for COVID-19, Drake took measures into his own hands and made a responsible decision, getting tested for the coronavirus and revealing that it had come back negative. Tory Lanez thinks the star is capping though, as evidenced by his response to the matter on social media.
Sharing a photo of himself at a Euphoria event, Drake looked ahead but Tory Lanez was focused on the present.
“When u said u tested negative for corona but u tested positive .. and only u know,” wrote Tory as a caption. In the picture, Drake definitely does look like he could be holding in a secret mischievously.
Always good for a few laughs, Tory and Drake’s camaraderie fails to disappoint. Especially during a time like this, it’s important to keep a smile on your face and your spirits high. This will get better.
Conan O’Brien Roasts Adam Sandler While Presenting Best Actor Award
Sandler was honored by the Movies For Grownups Awards for his performance in “Uncut Gems”.
Adam Sandler may have been snubbed by the Oscars for his performance in the Safdie Brothers’ Uncut Gems, but the Movies For Grownups Awards paid him great respect. If you’re not familiar with the Movies For Grownups Awards, i’ll forgive you. It’s not the biggest award show in the entertainment industry, but it’s important nonetheless. The AARP-hosted ceremony recognizes the work of actors and filmmakers ages 50 and over and how this work communicates with elderly audiences. Furthermore, the proceeds from the event benefit the AARP Foundation, which is committed to building and sustaining communities among seniors across America.
The 19th annual Movies For Grownups Awards took place on January 11th and Adam Sandler was honored as Best Actor for his role in Uncut Gems. Conan O’Brien presented this award and, as you could guess, hilarity ensued. Not longer after O’Brien started introducing the award, Sandler rose and started making his way to the stage. The television host was baffled by Sandler’s premature move and he didn’t hesitate to roast him on the spot for it.

“You don’t come up yet, what’s wrong with you?” O’Brien exlaimed. “How long have you been in show business? That was sad!” Sandler shouted that he got up because O’Brien paused, but this explanation didn’t save him from his public shaming. “I hesitated to take a pause! In comedy you take pauses! You were like a chimp that saw a banana. You came running. What the hell was that?! We get to you!”
O’Brien then goes on to joke that Sandler’s role of “a charismatic gambling addicted jeweler” in Uncut Gems could be considered as a portrayal of Sandler’s true self. Watch it all unfold below.
Tyler, The Creator Coldly Roasts A$AP Rocky: "Them Thighs On Turkey Day"
Tyler, The Creator slid in the comments with a quick remark about A$AP Rocky’s legs.
A$AP Rocky and Tyler, The Creator are best friends, collaborators, and frequent roast partners. The two love to get down to the nitty-gritty, unleashing their harshest insults on one another in a perpetual attempt to get the upper hand. Both rappers do it out of love, with absolutely no malice present in their words. Perhaps, if A$AP Rocky were insecure in his appearance, he would take some of Tyler’s jabs to heart. He always tends to brush them off though, rebutting with his own vicious remarks. Sometimes, they get their mutual friends, like ScHoolboy Q, involved in the fun but today, it was just Rocky and Tyler going at each other over a series of Yams Day 2020 photos.
Posting an account of his soirée celebrating the life and legacy of A$AP Yams, A$AP Rocky’s final image in the gallery shows him scrolling through his phone as he sits on the couch in his boxers. Tyler, The Creator peeped the pic and felt an urgent need to roast his friend and that’s exactly what happened.
“DAMN N***A DAS CRAZY THEM THIGHS ON TURKEY DAY YOU MUST BE FROM DALLAS,” wrote the IGOR artist in Flacko’s comments. The New York star was less than impressed with the remark, striking back by telling Tyler to “STFU” and leaving things at that.
It’s hard not to love the brotherly dynamic between A$AP Rocky and Tyler, The Creator. We all need someone like Tyler in our lives to keep us in check and, thankfully for him, Rocky can give his mans a call whenever he pleases.
Blueface Roasts Himself For Having Ridiculously Long Feet
“Size rifle and a half.”
Blueface can be a bit of a goofball on social media. Just in the past month, he’s been responsible for a few antics that got him featured in our headlines. First, he got in an unexpected (and unnecessary) spat with Lil Duval. It started with Blueface lecturing Shiggy about why he should stay in the comedy lane rather than dabbling in rap. Lil Duval, being a comedian who also happens to rap, came to Shiggy’s defense. Blueface doubled down on his stance that comedians shouldn’t rap, and clowned Lil Duval’s music and net worth. Following this incident, Blueface decided to give back to the needy for the holidays by heading to LA’s Skid Row and tossing cash at homeless people. The video he shared of this attempt at a charitable act received a ton of backlash for being insensitive.
This being said, Blueface has been an entertaining character online. The latest example of this is the video he shared on Instagram of a computerized female voice roasting him for his ridiculously long feat. The rapper is first seen standing in front of his blue Benz, before close-ups are provided of his feet and you could see that they are extensively elongated. The voiceover compares the appearance of his feet to a bunch of inanimate objects such as a meatball sub, a limousine and a rifle. The highlight might be when she jokes that his crossed toes are “making a promise.”
All this goofiness aside, Blueface’s debut album, Find The Beat, is set to drop on January 17. Listen to a new song by him, “Finesse The Beat“.
Snoop Dogg Roasts Donald Trump For His Presidential Ambitions In Throwback Clip
If only he knew then what he knows now.
Snoop Dogg is definitely not one to hold back on roasting people on social media, but today, he didn’t need to resort to using any brutal memes or do any good old-fashioned trolling. In this case, Snoop From The Past did all the roasting for him. In a throwback video from “Comedy Central’s Roast of Donald Trump” in 2011, years before the roast subject would become President of the United States, Snoop took the podium to contribute to the mockery.
In the brief clip, Snoop drags Trump for the way he got his money and his presumably tiny junk: “Now from me to you, Donald, I wish I had half of your money. But for that, you need a 20-year-old’s p*ssy and a divorce lawyer. Now I may not have half his paper, but I got twice the d*ck, and you can believe that.” The audience reacted well to these lighter and less severe jokes, and Trump kept a closed-mouth grin on his face the entire time. Snoop’s next bit, however, is not only more ruthless and twisted than the first half, but also eerie to watch in the present day. Snoop points out that Trump, at the time, was already considering running for office. “Donald says he wants to run for president and move on into the White House. Why not? It wouldn’t be the first time you pushed a black family out of their home.” The audience responds with shock, including Ivanka Trump, who can be seen in the crowd covering her face with disbelief. However, the wilder aspect for a viewer in 2020 is how nobody in that room had any idea that he would actually (unfortunately) succeed in this endeavour. Snoop captioned the post with nothing but a “?” emoji, signifying his status. The roast is certainly GOAT-worthy, but it’s still crazy to think what the future had in store for everyone back then.
