Suge Knight says he's got nothing to do with the recent string of social media posts drumming up Tupac conspiracy theories and old beefs with Snoop Dogg and Diddy … because he has no access to those accounts.

Suge tells TMZ Hip Hop ... someone is out to destroy his reputation by hacking into his Twitter and FB accounts. He says the hacker is attempting to come off as the real deal by posting clips from Suge's “Collect Call” podcast and old photos.

The incarcerated music mogul says he has no issues standing on anything he's ever said, on the podcast or otherwise, but he can't condone the activity on the social accounts ... which created Daz Dillinger's current rift with Snoop.

Suge's currently serving a 28-year prison sentence and tells us the errant posts have caused him a ton of unnecessary stress -- and he wants Twitter and FB to boot the hacker.

He's adamant he wouldn't invite such negative energy to his situation, and says his only official account is his Instagram page.

Kanye West is apparently in the grips of a serious mental health episode ... that's the only conclusion to draw from his furious rant, attacking his ex-business partners, Donald Trump and, of course, Jewish people.

Looking like a cult leader, Kanye was surrounded by a few dozen people early Friday morning somewhere in Las Vegas when he just lost it -- during a roughly 10-minute explosion he seemed to draw a direct line from Jesus to himself as he screamed, "Jesus Christ, Hitler, Ye! Sponsor that!!!"

He also rolled out one of his favorite antisemitic gems ... claiming Zionist Jews own all the banks, hospitals and even private schools in Los Angeles.

During the rant, which was live streamed by several people in the room -- including Miami influencer Yes Juelz, who was standing next to him -- Kanye screamed "f***" Balenciaga, Gap and Louis Vuitton." He also said he wouldn't support Donald Trump's run for president if he didn't free Larry Hoover from prison.

Perhaps the most troubling part was when he started yelling about his daughter, presumably North ... as he screamed, "My daughter ripped up the mother f**king couches in the house to be able to be with me right now."

Indeed, North was with Ye Thursday night in Vegas, during a listening event for his new "Vultures" album. With North and Ty Dolla $ign next to him he rapped, "I still keep some Jews with me. Management? Nah. I only let 'em do my jewelry."

During his rant, Kanye groused that no one was standing up for him, and when one woman in the room challenged him by saying, "You ain't God, n***a" ... he threatened to have her tossed out of the room.

Kanye West está aparentemente en las garras de un grave episodio de salud mental. Esa es la única conclusión que se puede sacar del furioso discurso, en el que atacó a sus ex socios de negocios, Donald Trump y, por supuesto, a las personas judías.

Con aspecto de líder de una secta, Kanye estaba rodeado de unas cuantas docenas de personas a primera hora del viernes en algún lugar de Las Vegas cuando se le fue la olla... durante una explosión de aproximadamente 10 minutos pareció trazar una línea directa desde Jesús hasta él mismo mientras gritaba: "¡Jesucristo, Hitler, Ye! ¡Patrocina eso!"

También lanzó una de sus gemas antisemitas favoritas, afirmando que los judíos sionistas poseen todos los bancos, hospitales e incluso escuelas privadas en Los Ángeles.

Durante su discurso, que fue transmitido en vivo por varias personas en la habitación, -incluyendo el influencer de Miami Yes Juelz, que estaba de pie junto a él- Kanye gritó "que se joda" Balenciaga, Gap y Louis Vuitton". También dijo que no apoyaría la candidatura de Donald Trump a la presidencia si no liberaba a Larry Hoover de la cárcel.

Tal vez la parte más preocupante fue cuando empezó a gritar acerca de su hija, presumiblemente North. El rapero gritó: "Mi hija tuvo que rasgar los put**s sofás en casa para poder estar conmigo en este momento".

Efectivamente, North estuvo con Ye el jueves por la noche en Las Vegas, durante un evento para escuchar su nuevo álbum "Vultures". Con North y Ty Dolla $ign a su lado rapeó: "Todavía mantengo algunos judíos conmigo. ¿Management? No. Solo les dejo hacer mis joyas".

Durante su diatriba, Kanye se quejó de que nadie lo defendía y cuando una mujer de la sala lo desafió diciéndole: "Tú no eres Dios, n***o", la amenazó con echarla de la sala.

Kid Cudi was clearly in a much better mood than Kanye West Thursday night as he officially ended their beef in Las Vegas -- a total shocker to many after Cudi vowed to forever cut all ties with him just last year!!!

The “Kids See Ghosts” duo were spotted hugging, and briefly speaking during Kanye’s Vegas rave for his “Vultures" album.

Kanye and Cudi feuded through all of 2022 -- Ye was upset Cudi chose to keep his friendship with Pete Davidson as he dated Kim Kardashian ... which forced Cudi to label him a dinosaur in the music industry, and swear to never work with him again.

You can see Cudi was far more inviting than Kanye, who pulled away after a few moments Thursday night. It's unclear if the reunion happened before or after Ye went on a wacky rant in which he lumped himself in with Jesus Christ AND Hitler!

Everyone else seemed to be having a good time and enjoying the music ... Cher's boyfriend Alexander “AE” Edwards and several women can also be spotted catching a vibe to the new music ... before the festivities got shut down by cops.

Justin Timberlake seemed to address the controversy around him in Britney Spears' recent memoir during his Sin City performance -- using just two words to make his cryptic point.

As you know, JT hit the stage to perform in a theater at the grand opening of the posh Fontainebleau Las Vegas Wednesday night -- but, as he teed up his hit, "Cry Me A River," he suddenly made his very brief comment.

Check out this new footage ... Before launching into the song, JT turned to the packed crowd and said, "No disrespect," apparently referring to Britney, who slammed the track for its link to their shattered relationship in her book, "The Woman In Me," published in October.

JT created the tune after his 2002 breakup with Brit, alluding to infidelity in the lyrics and, in an accompanying video, he shared the spotlight with a woman who looks a bit like Brit.

In her memoir, Brit revealed several of the secrets they kept as a couple for years, shocking the world with her claim that Justin got her pregnant and they agreed to get an abortion.

Brit wrote that they didn't want the news to leak to the media, so they opted for an at-home abortion -- which BS described as an excruciatingly painful procedure.

She also said infidelity was a 2-way street in their relationship.

Justin Timberlake pareció abordar la controversia que le rodea en las recientes memorias de Britney Spears durante su actuación en la ciudad del pecado, utilizando solo dos palabras para hacer su enigmático punto.

Como ustedes saben, Justin subió al escenario para actuar en la gran apertura del elegante resort Fontainebleau en Las Vegas el miércoles por la noche, y cuando se preparaba para cantar su éxito, "Cry Me A River", de repente hizo un breve comentario.

Echa un vistazo a estas nuevas imágenes. Antes de lanzar la canción, el cantante se dirigió a la multitud y dijo: "Sin faltar el respeto", aparentemente refiriéndose a Britney, quien criticó la pista por estar conectada a su difícil relación en el libro, "The Woman in Me", publicado en octubre.

Justin Timberlake creó la melodía después de su ruptura con Brit en 2002, aludiendo a una infidelidad en la letra y en un video que la acompaña. En este video, además, compartió protagonismo con una mujer que se parecía un poco a Brit.

En sus memorias, ella reveló varios secretos entre ellos durante años, conmocionando al mundo con su afirmación de que Justin la dejó embarazada y acordaron abortar.

Brit escribió que no querían que la noticia se filtrara a los medios, por lo que optaron por un aborto en casa, el que Britney describió como insoportablemente doloroso.

También dijo que la infidelidad era algo que corría para ambos lados en su relación.

A tragedy unfolded for fans of Brazilian gospel singer Pedro Henrique ... as he collapsed onstage in the middle of a performance and died.

The incident happened Wednesday night during a religious event in Brazil, where Pedro was performing a song when he suddenly fell to the floor unconscious ... and it's all on video.

Footage shows Pedro on the edge of the stage interacting with the crowd and singing the song "Vai Ser Tão Lindo" when he appears to lose his balance ... falling backward in front of his band and crashing to the ground.

Once Pedro collapsed onstage, folks rushed over to help him as the horrified crowd watched in shock.

Pedro was rushed from the concert venue to a nearby medical clinic, where he was pronounced dead ... and his record label, Todah Music, says he suffered a massive heart attack.

He was only 30.

El cantante brasileño de gospel Pedro Henrique se desplomó en el escenario en medio de una actuación y murió.

El fatal incidente ocurrió el miércoles por la noche durante un evento religioso en Brasil, cuando Pedro estaba interpretando una canción hasta que de repente se desplomó... y todo está en video.

Las imágenes muestran a Pedro en el borde del escenario, interactuando con el público y cantando la canción "Vai Ser Tão Lindo" cuando parece perder el equilibrio, cayendo hacia atrás delante de su banda y estrellándose contra el suelo.

Una vez que Pedro se derrumbó en el escenario, la gente se apresuró en un esfuerzo por ayudarlo mientras la multitud horrorizada observaba en estado de shock.

Pedro fue trasladado rápidamente desde el lugar del concierto a una clínica cercana, donde fue declarado muerto. Su sello discográfico, Todah Music, dice que sufrió un ataque masivo al corazón.

Solo tenía 30 años.

Se suponía que el álbum "Vultures" de Kanye West y Ty Dolla $ign se iba a lanzar el viernes, pero como era de esperar, eso no sucedió y para sumar a la racha de mala suerte, la fiesta para escuchar el disco en Las Vegas fue clausurada por la policía.

Una fuente policial le dijo a TMZ que los oficiales fueron a un almacén en el desierto de Las Vegas a las 11:21 PM del jueves, después de recibir información de que un agente estaba organizando un evento musical. Al principio, estaban ayudando a controlar y dispersar a las personas.

Sin embargo, nos dicen que el promotor no fue capaz de adquirir una licencia para el evento y fue citado por los investigadores del Condado de Clark, quienes finalmente decidieron clausurar las cosas después de algunas canciones.

La noticia del cierre surgió por primera vez cuando el influencer YesJulz reveló en X: "Los policías nos cerraron. Pondremos otro stream en 20 minutos".

Quavo, Rich The Kid, Playboi Carti, Lil Durk y más asistieron al evento, cuyos boletos de entrada se vendieron por $2,000. En un momento dado, Kanye actuó con su hija de 10 años, North West.

Todo lo que rodea al álbum ha provocado una increíble controversia hasta ahora. Desde la letra "I just f***ed a Jewish bitch" como single principal de "Vultures" (Solo me acosté con una pu*** judía) hasta Ye actuando en una fiesta a principios de esta semana con un atuendo negro inspirado en el Ku Kux Klan.

Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign's "Vultures" album was supposed to be released Friday, unsurprisingly, that didn't happen ... and to add to the string of bad luck, their Vegas listening party got shut down by the cops.

A law enforcement source tells TMZ LVMPD officers first responded to a warehouse in the Vegas desert at 11:21 PM Thursday after getting info a promoter was organizing a music event. At first, they were assisting with crowd control and dispersal.

However, we're told the promoter wasn't able to produce any licensing for the event ... and was cited by Clark County investigators, who eventually shut things down only a few songs in.

News of the shutdown first surfaced when social media personality YesJulz revealed on X, "Cops shut us down. We are putting another stream up in 20 minutes."

Quavo, Rich The Kid, Playboi Carti, Lil Durk and more were in attendance at the rave -- where the admission tickets sold for $2,000. At one point, Kanye performed with his 10-year-old daughter North West.

Everything surrounding the album has drawn incredible controversy so far ... with the "I just f***ed a Jewish bitch" lyrics from the lead single "Vultures" ... and Ye performing at a listening party earlier this week in KKK-inspired black garb.

Selena Gomez is all in with Benny Blanco ... because they clearly can't keep their lips off each other!

SG posted some pics showcasing some of her "favorite moments" in New York this week -- starting with a photo celebrating her pal Taylor Swift's birthday.

And then there's the kiss ... celebrating her love for Benny as she plants a big one on his lips

As you know, Selena's been putting BB on her socials, defending her relationship with Benny after some of her wonky fans blasted her for "dating down" ... referencing her prior relationships with guys like Justin Bieber and Nick Jonas.

Selena's fired back, saying she'll never date "a f***boy ever again," and that he's been treating her "better than any human being."

Good on her ... only thing is, don't give those jerks oxygen.

Selena Gomez va muy en serio con Benny Blanco, ¡porque claramente no pueden mantener sus labios separados el uno del otro!

Selena Gomez publicó algunas fotos de sus "momentos favoritos" en Nueva York esta semana, comenzando con una foto del cumpleaños de su amiga Taylor Swift.

A continuación, compartió una foto celebrando su amor por Benny, en la que se ve dándole un tremendo beso.

Como ustedes saben, Selena ha estado compartiendo fotos de Benny Blanco en sus redes sociales para defender su relación después de que algunos malpensados fans la criticaran por "estar retrocediendo" en sus relaciones, luego de haber salido con chicos como Justin Bieber y Nick Jonas.

Selena ha respondido de vuelta, diciendo que nunca volverá a salir con "un chico de mier***" y que él la ha tratado "mejor que cualquier ser humano".

Bien por ella... lo único es que no le dé oxígeno a esos imbéciles.

Nicki Minaj isn't budging on Kanye West's impromptu request to clear her verse for his upcoming "Vultures" album ... despite his album being scheduled to drop on Friday.

In a new convo with her fans on IG, Nicki softened her tone and told all Ye's supporters there was no disrespect ... but whatever wrapping you put on it, the bottom line is it just ain't happening!

As everyone knows, Nicki just released her long-delayed "Pink Friday 2" album -- which is headed to the top of the Billboard charts!!!

Nicki says she doesn't want to redirect any momentum from her album, so Ye is likely going to have to find another solution to fill the track.

Kanye originally had Nicki rap on "New Body" for his long-lost "Yandhi" album back in 2018 and a different version -- without Nicki's verse -- was played earlier this week at his Miami listening party for "Vultures."

There's no telling if "New Body" is the reason "Vultures" isn't dropping Friday morning, as promised, but fans aren't happy.

Justin Timberlake apparently made a boatload of $$$ for his performance during the grand opening of the Fontainebleau Hotel in Vegas Wednesday, but he triggered a hotel war by staying overnight at the Wynn.

Justin shared a pic after his big appearance at Fontainebleau's big event, strolling down a hotel hallway with his wife, Jessica Biel. Thing is ... something looked off.

Social media sleuths noticed the hallway isn't part of the Fontainebleau ... it's the Wynn! So dude got a reported $6.1 million from the Fontainebleau and chose to put his head on a Wynn pillow.

The folks over at Wynn found JT's post irresistible ... re-posting the pic on the hotel's IG with the caption, "where everyone ends up."

Wynn's post has been taken down, but point well made!

We checked with Fontainebleau and although rooms Wednesday night were not available to the public, they were available to the celebs, including Justin, who attended the grand opening.

The feud between Fontainebleau and Wynn has been brewing for a while. Wynn had accused Fontainebleau of poaching its employees, so this was payback.

Kanye West is back home in California with his family ... taking his daughter North to Disneyland, a place that's practically her playground, but there were some big differences on this trip.

Ye spent part of his Thursday visiting the Mouse House with North and his new wife, Bianca Censori.

North's been to Disneyland a bunch with her famous parents, and other family members, over the years -- but this is the first time she's been with stepmom Bianca -- instead of Kim Kardashian -- as far as we've seen.

TMZ obtained photos of the trio making their way through the huge Disneyland holiday crowds with a personal Disney tour guide, of course, and some security in tow.

Folks in the park tell us Kanye, Bianca and North went the back way into the Haunted Mansion -- reserved for VIPs -- and North looked happy as she held Bianca's hand.

On their way into the Haunted Mansion, which currently has a "Nightmare Before Christmas" holiday overlay, we're told North and Bianca were talkative ... while Kanye remained silent.

Kanye and Bianca have been married about a year now, and all evidence points to his kids totally warming up to her.

After riding the Haunted Mansion, we're told the West trio hoofed it over to nearby Frontier Land for more fun.

As you can see, Kanye is covering up in a black hoodie, and we're told the group went largely unnoticed -- which, as you'd expect, never happens when Kim's there. Interestingly, Bianca was rocking one of her standard bodysuits, but a much more conservative, non-see-through, family-friendly one.

Kanye and Bianca have been all over the world this year -- Japan, all over Europe and then Dubai ... where, earlier this week, Kanye unveiled his new album, "Vultures."

Kanye West está cabreando a algunos líderes de la comunidad negra con su última elección de moda. Resulta que ponerse una capucha extrañamente similar a las del Ku Klux Klan no le está sentando bien a Black Lives Matter.

Ye llevaba su capucha negra puntiaguda a principios de esta semana en su fiesta de escucha "Vultures", y está causando indignación en BLM y en la Liga Cívica Nacional.

Black Lives Matter le dice a TMZ: "El shock y la repugnancia que Ye generó deben ser canalizados en el apoyo a los esfuerzos para eliminar esta ideología repugnante de la sociedad".

"Los grupos de odio están creciendo a un ritmo alarmante en Estados Unidos. De la lista de más de 1.200 grupos de odio activos en la sociedad, el KKK es el más grande con cientos de capítulos en todo el país, lo que lo hace más grande hoy que en cualquier otro momento de la larga historia del grupo".

En otras palabras, Kanye debería derribar al KKK no darle más visibilidad.

La organización añade que su objetivo principal es "exponer la prevalencia de la supremacía blanca y los ideales anti-negros en los EE.UU., y cómo esos ideales están profundamente arraigados en su fundación. Reconocer esto es el primer paso hacia la acción colectiva para erradicar estas ideologías dañinas".

Mientras tanto, la gente de la Liga Cívica Nacional dice que es un insulto a las víctimas pasadas y presentes de la violencia del KKK.

Como nos dijo el presidente de la NCL, Doug Linkhart: "Cualquier uso de ropa que evoca al Ku Klux Klan es una afrenta no solo a los que han sido blanco del KKK, sino a los valores americanos en general".

La organización reconoce que la expresión artística de Kanye está protegida por la Constitución, pero añade: "El discurso y los símbolos de odio son hirientes y deben ser condenados, no condonados".
