It was another headline-heavy Morning Hustle as the crew tackled culture, controversy, and celebrity moments that had everyone talking. The Lo’Down kicked off with Instacart facing backlash after a Consumer Reports investigation revealed AI-driven price differences, with some shoppers paying up to 23% more for the same groceries depending on location and profile—raising serious concerns about fairness, transparency, and price gouging at a time when food costs are already sky-high.

The conversation then shifted to 21 Savage calling for unity in Atlanta, as the rapper publicly urged artists like Quavo, Offset, Future, and others to squash beefs for the sake of the city’s legacy and culture. The crew debated whether public pressure actually helps heal real-life conflicts or just adds fuel to already tense situations. Wrapping things up, the show discussed a viral moment from Mariah Carey’s concert, where a fan was caught on camera telling Rihanna to sit down while she was standing and cheering—sparking jokes, disbelief, and commentary about audacity, celebrity etiquette, and why you never play with Rihanna in public.

The Morning Hustle keeps things buzzing as the crew breaks down some major moments shaking up music and entertainment right now. Nelly revealed that the St. Lunatics are officially working on a new album, set for 2026 and executive produced by Metro Boomin, a surprising reunion considering the group’s long-standing legal disputes and years of tension. The Hustlers debate whether nostalgia plus Metro’s hit-making touch can successfully reintroduce the group to a new generation—or if some things are better left in the past.

The Lo’Down also highlights Cam’ron landing a major hosting role for the Jake Paul vs. Anthony Joshua pre-fight event, signaling another hip-hop crossover into mainstream sports commentary. Meanwhile, family drama takes center stage as Brandy reportedly kicks Ray J and his girlfriend off the “Boy Is Mine” tour, after Ray J’s ongoing antics and controversial comments crossed the line. Lore’l, Kyle, and Alton unpack whether Ray J’s behavior is attention-seeking or self-sabotage—and why Brandy finally had enough.
