Recently, he made headlines for a rumored feud with Papoose. According to speculations, Papoose's wife, Remy Ma, had an affair with Eazy.

The rumors of Remy's infidelity surfaced in June of 2023. Sources claimed that the “Alphabetical Slaughter” MC confronted Eazy The Block Captain at a Chrome 23 rap battle.

“I see Papoose, and it was kind of like an aggressive motion, and Papoose swings,” an attendee claimed on Star Report Radio (per Atlanta Black Star.)

“The next thing I know, Eazy was on the floor and it was a lot of commotion, and people were running out of the room. Remy came in, and her security came behind her. And then they closed the door and they were arguing.”

They continued: “So this whole ‘it didn’t happen’ is bulls--t. He did go night-night. Papoose put Eazy The Block Captain to sleep last night. What it was about, I don’t know, but he was playing Remy very close last night. A little too close for comfort.”

Remy has since slammed the rumors, tweeting: “I’d like to apologize to everyone that was disappointed tonight because we couldn’t get 3 full rounds from all the opponents. I tried.

"And can y’all please stop with the Eazy and Pap lies? There’s no place like Chrome," she went on. "Right back at it, see y'all in August #Chrome23.”
