Sip Good, Do Good: How My 608 Lifted Lemonade Is Fueling Holiday Giving Across Madison

The holidays hit different when you realize how many families are struggling just to keep the lights on, put gifts under the tree, or make the season feel special for their kids. That’s exactly why I created 608 Lifted Lemonade to blend good vibes with a greater purpose.

Yeah, it’s a THC infused strawberry lemonade that tastes amazing, but it’s bigger than that. Every can helps fuel community programs like Gifts of Christmas and the Back 2 School Backpack Giveaway, projects that have been lifting families in Madison for years. This isn’t just a drink; it’s a movement built for the people who make the 608 what it is.

It’s been a tough year for a lot of families, and I wanted to create something that not only helps people unwind but also gives back directly to the city that has given me so much love over the years. That’s why every sip counts. When you grab a 4 pack of 608 Lifted Lemonade, you’re not just showing love to a local brand, you’re helping make sure another family feels that same love during the holidays.

Here’s the best part: if you’re in the Madison area and 21 or older, you can get free local delivery on 4 packs by ordering through 608Lifted.com. No gimmicks, no middleman, just good energy straight to your doorstep. Whether you’re chilling after work, toasting at Friendsgiving, or wrapping gifts late at night, you can sip knowing your purchase is making a real impact right here in our community.

608 Lifted Lemonade was born from the idea that good things happen when people come together, whether it’s in the studio, at a show, or over a cold drink with friends. The flavor hits, the mission matters, and the movement keeps growing.

So as the holidays roll in, let’s do what Madison does best, show up for each other. Get lifted, give back, and keep the 608 strong. Every sip is a statement that we’re not just here to talk about change, we’re here to make it happen.

Order now at 608Lifted.com and join me in turning good vibes into good deeds this season.

Offset’s Haunted By Fame Misses The Billboard 200 As Rumors And Lawsuits Swirl

Offset is learning the hard way that sometimes the ghosts you create come back around. His latest album Haunted By Fame dropped at the end of October with little warning, but instead of climbing the charts, it failed to even make the Billboard 200. According to Kurrco, the project moved fewer than 8,000 units in its first week—a huge slide from his previous album Kiari, which debuted with 29,000.

The lack of promo definitely didn’t help. Haunted By Fame was announced just days before release, and even with features from NBA YoungBoy, Lil Dump, and NoCap, the buzz wasn’t enough to grab attention. Fans online say the rollout felt rushed and disconnected, missing the energy that used to make Migos projects pop.

Offset’s struggles aren’t limited to music. He’s been facing a wave of headlines surrounding his breakup with Cardi B. Rumors recently spread that Cardi offered him a ten million dollar settlement he refused. Offset shot those claims down fast, commenting online that the stories were fake and fueled by hate.

Now, legal trouble adds another layer to his rough season. A Los Angeles security guard named Jim Sanchez has filed a lawsuit accusing Offset of assault at a MedMen dispensary. The alleged incident left Sanchez with injuries, missed work, and a demand for damages exceeding twenty five thousand dollars. Offset denies it all, saying he and his team were maced during the confrontation.

While Haunted By Fame might not be getting love on the charts, it’s living up to its title in real life. Between rumors, lawsuits, and low sales, Offset’s haunted by everything that comes with fame—and this time, it’s hitting harder than a verse.

Ja Rule Says Drake Doesn’t Need Advice Amid Kendrick Lamar Feud, Takes Another Swipe At 50 Cent

Ja Rule has been in more than his share of rap battles, but even he knows when to step back and let the next generation handle their own smoke. During a recent appearance on the 7PM in Brooklyn podcast with Carmelo Anthony, the New York rapper was asked what advice he’d offer Drake while the Toronto hitmaker continues trading shots with Kendrick Lamar.

His answer? None.

“Why I gotta advise Drake? Why can’t I advise Kendrick?” Ja laughed. “Drake don’t need no advice. Drake is rich, got a big plane. What we talking about Drake for, man? That dude chilling.”

It’s a classic Ja moment, equal parts humor and confidence. And while he gave Drake props for living well above the drama, he couldn’t resist drawing attention back to his own legendary rap beef history. After all, Ja and 50 Cent have been locked in a war of words for more than twenty years, with no signs of peace in sight.

Earlier this year, Ja took to X to remind everyone who’s still performing and collecting checks. “Imagine trying to clown someone currently on tour making six figures a show,” he wrote in response to fans trying to hype 50’s European dates. And when a commenter said 50’s tour sold out, Ja fired back, “Ain’t nobody coming to see you Otis… I mean Curtis.”

50 later answered with his own signature sarcasm, but Ja stayed unbothered, still posting performance clips and letting his numbers speak.

So while Drake and Kendrick keep their lyrical war going, Ja Rule’s watching from his private lane, happy to let the new school handle it. After all, the man who survived 50 Cent’s prime knows that sometimes the best move in beef is staying above it.
