It's amazing to see the Detroit native reconnect with his rap peers and with the city that made him after his year-long prison stint.

42 Dugg is finally back home in Detroit after a year-long prison stint, and the last few months saw him reconnect with his family, loved ones, the game, and his overall career. Moreover, on Friday night (January 19), he held his homecoming concert the D's Little Caesars Arena, and brought out a lot of special guests to join him onstage. These include Meek Mill, Lil Baby, Yo Gotti, GloRilla, Lil Durk, the one and only Jeezy, and reportedly many more. Overall, it seemed like an electric performance that 42 thoroughly enjoyed, and an experience that he surely missed for a long time.

Furthermore, it's been very fulfilling to see him spend time with his peers in the rap game and once again form part of the current conversation. For example, 42 Dugg recently dropped the J. Cole-endorsed single "SpinDatBac," which was apparently the result of a studio session that the two had in which the Dreamville boss expressed particular praise for this cut. As such, it would be amazing to see what other genre and stylistic crossovers he could engage in over the next few months, or years even. After all, the Michigan native is still a leader of his scene despite his brief departure, and his flow and delivery is too unique to leave to the wayside.

However, not everything has been perfect when it comes to his renewed relationship with other rappers, reports indicate. Wack 100 recently made claims about an altercation between 42 Dugg and Offset that prompted some bad blood between the two. Not only that, but the music executive also alleged that this caused 'Set's bonds with Lil Baby to sour as well. Whether or not there's any truth to this speculation of feuds between these spitters, it seems like this alleged confrontation doesn't have much truth behind in.

In fact, Dugg himself recently denied that Offset robbed him at all, although he did acknowledge that something went down. Still, it's unclear if it's between the two rappers or if he got tested by someone else. Either way, it's but a small footnote in this comeback tale that events like this homecoming concert supersede. For more news and the latest updates on 42 Dugg, keep checking in with HNHH.
