Pusha T on Drake's ‘What Did I Miss?': ‘Just Not for Me'
Pusha T isn't a fan of Drake latest single 'What Did I Miss?' While he and his brother Malice sat down with Complex News recently, the Virginia rapper was asked directly if he liked the Toronto rapper's new song and simply replied, 'No.' When asked what he didn't like about the track, he responded by saying, 'Just not for me.'

However, don't expect Push to throw any more shots. In an interview with GQ last month, he told the outlet that there's really nothing more to be said. 'I think after everything that had been done, I don't think there was ever anything subliminal to be said ever again in life,' he said. 'Not only just musically, like bro, I actually was in Canada. I actually had a show and made it home. So, I can't pay attention to none of that. I did the dance for real, not to come back and tiptoe around anything.' He also spoke on Drake's lawsuit, which may or may not have affected the new Clipse album directly in regards to Kendrick Lamar's verse on 'Chains & Whips.' 'They wanted me to ask Kendrick to censor his verse, which of course I was never doing,' he said of Def Jam's parent company UMG. Adding that Drake's ongoing lawsuit against his label 'kind of cheapens the art of it once we gotta have real questions about suing and litigation.'

Push Gummies halts sales after New Zealand-based company's creatine gummies exposed as having little creatine
A workout supplement company has been forced to halt sales amid claims the business is misleading customers about the presence of creatine in its creatine gummies. Push Gummies, a New Zealand-based company that sells workout supplements, came under intense scrutiny when YouTube content creator James Smith revealed its gummies contained very little creatine. Mr Smith earlier this week posted a video to his 445,000 YouTube subscribers exposing some creatine gummy producers that sold gummies with as little as one or two per cent of the creatine they claimed to have. He focused on Push, which claimed there were five grams of creatine in a daily serve of three gummies. Mr Smith ordered an examination of the gummies at the independent tester of Push's product Eurofins in the USA, and found there was about 0.1 grams in a daily serve. He uploaded another video days later, where he tested the gummies at the specific Eurofins lab that Push used in China and once again confirmed his findings. Mr Smith's massive exposeÌ led Push to halt sales and forced it to re-examine its operations. 'We recognise that the recent claims have caused confusion, concern and doubt, and we want to apologise to our loyal customers, suppliers and community,' a Push Gummies spokesperson said. 'As soon as these claims came to light, we paused sales of our gummies while we undertake a thorough investigation. 'We've also initiated fresh, independent testing of product samples directly from batches in New Zealand with third-party independent laboratory, Eurofins.' Mr Smith revealed Push has an agent based in China that deals with the Eurofins testing. He theorised the agent may have been providing Eurofins a different product to what Push was selling its customers in order to get a result with creatine in it. This comes as Push's gummies reportedly lack much of a creatine taste – which many find off-putting. 'Do we think Push are ripping people off for thousands or potentially even millions of dollars? In my honest personal opinion, I don't think that's the case,' Mr Smith said. 'I think they've been set up good and proper here by a Chinese supplier.' Push Gummies' website now says that all its products are 'sold-out', while its products are no longer available on e-commerce sites such as Amazon or Australian Muscle. Despite this, the company continues to show messages on its website claiming Push Gummies can 'improve muscle size and strength', 'enhance athletic performance', 'accelerate muscle recovery' and lead to 'cognitive benefits'. A pop-up advertisement still appears on the website urging consumers to leave their email address with the company. The company was co-founded by New Zealand woman Brittany Allan in September 2023 and shipped its products around New Zealand, to Australia and the United States before stopping sales.

Clipse, Pharrell Preview Kendrick Lamar's Highly Anticipated 'Chains & Whips' Verse
The Clipse and Pharrell are full steam ahead in rolling out their forthcoming album Let God Sort Em Out. The trio previewed Kendrick Lamar's highly anticipated verse on 'Chains & Whips' this week. Footage surfaced of the Virginia legends hanging on a rooftop in Paris rapping along to the record in front of a crowd of people. K. Dot's verse covered a few topics, such as Hip-Hop being dead 'again,' him giving all of his money to Rakim, the West Coast being on top, his experiences in therapy, and more. 'I'm not the candidate to vibe with/ I don't f**k with the kumbaya sh*t/ All that talent must be God-sent/ I sent yo a** back to the comics,' he rapped. There wasn't anything in particular that sounded targeted at Drake, which caused people to question why Def Jam and Universal Music Group were so opposed to clearing the song. Veteran journalist Rob Markman, who heard the song early, labeled the verse as the Compton rapper's 'State Of The Union' as opposed to being a diss. Nonetheless, as Push told GQ, his label and their parent label were concerned about the optics of two of Drizzy's foes linking up amid the ongoing defamation lawsuit. Check out a preview of the verse below. One rapper that Pusha T has held no punches about is Travis Scott. In the Clipse's recent single 'So Be It,' he went full throttle at the Houston star. 'You cried in front of me, you died in front of me/ Calabasas took your bi**h and your pride in front of me/ Heard Utopia had moved right up the street/ And her lip gloss was poppin', she ain't need you to eat/ The 'net gon' call it the way that they see it/ But I got the video, I can share and A.E. it/ They wouldn't believe it, but I can't unsee it/ Lucky I ain't TMZ it, so be it, so be it,' he rapped. He explained his issues with the Utopia artist to GQ, which stem from him playing the fence while his rapper friends went to war with one another. It's no secret that Push holds Pharrell dear, so when Scott interrupted their recording session in Paris to play his July 2023 LP Utopia without playing Drake's verse on 'Meltdown,' the Daytona rapper took that personally since both he and Skateboard P ended up receiving shots. 'He don't have no picks, no loyalty to nobody,' Push stated. 'He'll jump around whatever he feels is hot or cling onto whatever he feels is hot. But you can play those games with those people…We're not in your mix. Keep your mix over there.' Listen to 'Meltdown' below.

Pusha T Reveals Why He Dissed Travis Scott On New Clipse Single 'So Be It'
Any new Pusha T music released since 2018 has had people constantly wondering who may get dissed. Travis Scott was his latest target on the new Clipse single 'So Be It,' and the Virginia rapper explained why. 'You cried in front of me, you died in front of me/ Calabasas took your bi**h and your pride in front of me/ Heard Utopia had moved right up the street/ And her lip gloss was poppin', she ain't need you to eat/ The 'net gon' call it the way that they see it/ But I got the video, I can share and A.E. it/ They wouldn't believe it, but I can't unsee it/ Lucky I ain't TMZ it, so be it, so be it,' Push rapped on the Tuesday (June 17) release. These lines refer to the Houston rapper's 2023 LP Utopia, his ex-girlfriend Kylie Jenner, and Alexander 'A.E.' Edwards, best friend to Jenner's ex-boyfriend Tyga. But why is the 48-year-old rapper shooting at Travis, and why is now the right time? 'The true context of that is we were in Paris, literally working, and he was calling to play [Pharrell] his new album,' Push told GQ. 'He came to [Pharrell's] studio [at Louis Vuitton HQ, where Clipse recorded most of [Let God Sort Em Out]. He interrupted a session.' Pusha T indicated that Travis Scott didn't seem to care about what he was intruding on, and was more focused on playing his music. 'He sees me and Malice there. He's like, 'Oh, man, everybody's here,'' he recalled. 'He's smiling, laughing, jumping around, doing his f**king monkey dance. We weren't into the music, but he wanted to play it, wanted to film [us and Pharrell listening to it].' The biggest issue was what the 10-time Grammy nominee didn't play for them. 'And then a week later you hear 'Meltdown,'' Push added. 'He played the song, but not [Drake's verse].' That track was where the 6 God infamously threatened to melt down the Neptunes-era jewelry that he bought from Pharrell's Joopiter auction. Even worse, Skateboard P contributed to that album, which made it another instance where Scott played the fence while his enemies went at one another. The Daytona artist admitted that he didn't hold Scott to 'any standard' because he had done this before, such as placing Drake's Ye-targeted verse on 'Sicko Mode' in 2018, or even last year when he encouraged Future and Metro Boomin to play the full version of 'Like That' at Rolling Loud. 'He don't have no picks, no loyalty to nobody,' Push stated. 'He'll jump around whatever he feels is hot or cling onto whatever he feels is hot. But you can play those games with those people…We're not in your mix. Keep your mix over there.' Pusha T straight up called Travis Scott a 'whore' and was especially bothered because he had intentionally distanced himself from Ye and Scott's crew a long time ago. 'It's the principle of what I'm saying,' he said. 'That filthy quality that they have about themselves, that lack of loyalty. Travis really has that. He's proven. I just named three people that he does that type of behavior with. I'm just not one of them. Dog, I ain't with that. This sh*t ain't coming out of nowhere.' It will be interesting to hear who else gets Push's vitriol when Let God Sort Em Out finally comes out on July 11.

Expert Insights Aderito Manuel, a renowned sports scientist, commented on the benefits of cold-environment training: 'Exercising in cold environments may seem daunting at first, but it offers distinct health benefits. When exposed to lower temperatures, the body works harder to regulate its core temperature, leading to a 5-11% boost in oxygen volume in the blood compared to temperate conditions due to increased cardiac output and oxygen utilisation, resulting in greater endurance. This process also increases calorie burn by ~300kcal/day through brown adipose tissue (BAT) activation. Studies show athletes training in cold environments develop up to 17% higher pain tolerance and lower rates of perceived exertion (RPE) post-adaptation.'
