Is Hitmaka Yung Berg? Tink drama explored in wake of latter's allegations

American rapper Tink slammed record producer Hitmaka, a.k.a. Yung Berg over alleged altercation allegations. In a lengthy rant over the weekend on her Instagram Live session, the 28-year-old personality said that she had kept mum about their relationship with one another but they fell out in May 2023 after she decided to work on her album alone.

She also claimed that Hitmaka wanted $2 million from her which she refused to give him, and added that the alleged altercation was physical from her side but not his. In a video shared by Instagram gossip blog The Shade Room, Tink said:

"I had a moment in that car when I had to get physical. Don't play with me, and please, don't get on this Internet playing, because I had to defend myself. And Christian, when you see this s**t, just understand you're foul. That's all I need you to know. You tweaking with a real b***h, like, a real one that goes through the trenches with you."

She added that people had warned him to let go of the incident while asking her to be careful while she was working with him.

"I never seen it until now. Honestly, this has been going on since May. So yeah, this ain't nothing new, I just have to express it because it may drop, it may leak. And that's it. New music is on the way."
