Which hotend?
If stock how many hours? And do you believe you cooked it.
Can you hear your motor going tik tik tik or tok tok tok (i.e skipping)

It's filament starvation, can be caused by a few things, first thing I'd do is boost the temperature by 10 degrees.
Check extruder, make sure the teeth are clean, ensure the hotend extrudes freely, is your "PEEK" fan running etc.
FWIW I've seen a lot of "bad" filament where parts of it will require a higher temperature than other parts, PLA seems to be particularly prone to this I assume because of variation in the die. I had one roll of transparent Blue PLA from a Chinese vendor that would extrude at 180C except when it needed 230C for short lengths of it.

That had to be a bummer! I have never had that happen personally but I would not
want it to happen, good catch on the problem.
