VIC MENSA Lays Down Two Amazing Freestyles Over Classic Beats On L.A. Leakers

October 1, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Chicago rapper VIC MENSA is having an underrated 2023. It fits him, seeing as he has been an unheralded talent ever since his first tape, There’s Alot Going On. He has quite a few projects since then, but only one of them classifies as an album. That was his debut in 2017, The Autobiography. But, Vic waited a whole six years later to put out his sophomore release, Victor. It is a big deal for him because of the wait, but also because of the big features. Rapsody, Common, Thundercat, Chance the Rapper, Jay Electronica and more appear on it.

Fans are taking a liking to the new release from MENSA because of the personal themes laced throughout the tracklist. Now, the multi-talented artist is continuing to ride this momentum throughout the rest of the year. Power 106 Los Angeles has seen some outrageous freestyles on their radio station and they just got to witness MENSA murder some classic instrumentals. The two beats he rapped over include “What It Feels Like” and “Get Down.”

Listen To VIC MENSA Absolutely Shut Down L.A. Leakers

The latter of the two is a Nas song from ’02, while the first is from Jay-Z and Nipsey Hussle’s collaboration. HipHopDX, grabbed some bars from both freestyles and they are fire. On “What It Feels Like,” VIC raps, “I ain’t lying on the beat, been scarred but I became king / Alexander Graham Bell the way my name ring / From here to China, my spirit is in alignment.” Then, on “Get Down,” he continues to spit. “That’s a concealed and carry / I move with military when I go in to march, like the end of February / I’m a king, I need three wives— the more, the merry / At the ADMAX, screaming ‘Free Jeff Fort and Larry.‘”

Lil Wayne Completely Oblivious Of Fan Rushing Stage At Recent Concert

October 1, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Lil Wayne hilariously missed a fan rushing the stage at a recent concert. Wayne had turned his back to the crowd to light up when the DJ and security responded to a woman trying to get to Wayne. By the time he turned back around and had begun performing, the woman had already been removed. There were no other reported incidents from the concert in Vegas. Last weekend, Wayne performed during halftime of the Raiders-Steelers game.

Social media users both trolled Wayne and praised his team for handling the situation. “N-gga didn’t even notice ,” one person said. “Wayne is not paying attention tho still the dj was like yoooo get her fast good looking Out DJ ,” added another while someone else “A+ security for a legend”. “I used to have to pull my kid out the toy section at Target like that ,” joked another.

Elsewhere, Wayne was in Wisconsin last week for a special performance. He had the honor of leading the Green Bay Packers onto the field before their Thursday Night Football matchup against the Lions. Wayne looked ecstatic as he roared and screamed as the Packers players ran past him. However, there was also an element of hilarity as the 5″5 rapper was absolutely dwarfed by the Packers squad.

However, Wayne couldn’t inspire a victory for the home team. The Packers were thoroughly dismantled 34-20 by the Lions. Things were so bad that the Lions led 27-3 at halftime. The one-sided loss drops the Packers to 2-2 on the season while giving the Lions (3-1) firm control over the NFC North. Jordan Love threw for 246 yards while the Packers only managed 27 yards on the ground. Meanwhile, Lions RB David Montgomery absolutely dominated, with 121 yards and three touchdowns on the day. It was overall a bad week for Wayne-supported football teams as Deion Sanders’ Colorado also fell to USC.

Finesse2tymes Reveals Who He Thinks Should Be Killed Instead Of Rappers

October 1, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Finesse2tymes recently took to his Instagram Story, providing followers with his hot take on murder. The performer made note of the ongoing violence amongst rappers, suggesting an alternative. He says that instead of rappers going down, it should actually be bloggers. Most can agree that an ever better alternative would be to kill nobody, regardless of their occupation.

“Y’all out here killing all these rappers, Y’all need to start killing these bloggers,” Finesse2tymes said. Various commenters weighed in, claiming that this is probably not the best solution. Adam 22 of No Jumper even chimed into the debate, giving his own take on the situation. “Encouraging the killing of journalists is bad actually,” he wrote. Wack 100 also shared his thoughts, writing, “Guess it’s time for the bloggers to report the paperwork.”

It’s unclear why Finesse2tymes would prefer violence be directed at bloggers, however, social media users have some ideas. Many think he could be annoyed with unflattering coverage surrounding his “snitching” allegations over the summer. Others are noting the variety of reasons he’s made headlines in recent weeks, including his two girlfriends’ pregnancies, him revealing that he lives on SSI checks, and more.

Many fans are urging the performer to stop encouraging violence of any kind, particularly amid recent news of his growing family. He announced that his two girlfriends, Nia Love and FNG Shugga, are pregnant last week. The performer celebrated the news with a cheerful dancing video yesterday, seeming to look forward to the two children’s arrivals. He had been juggling three girlfriends until earlier this month, when he revealed that he had broken things off with one of them. “She was [talking too] much, got eliminated,” he captioned an Instagram photo of himself posing alongside his two remaining partners.

Ice Spice’s Booty Nearly Taken Out By Pyro While Twerking In Australia: Watch

October 1, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Of the many rap divas competing for the public’s attention at this time, Ice Spice has undeniably had one of the hottest years. The world was already impressed with the redhead when she seemingly blew up overnight in the summer of 2022 with “Feelin’ U (Munch)” (though some accused her of being an industry plant), but after witnessing her accomplishments in the time since then, it’s become obvious that Spice is anything but a one-hit-wonder.

She spent the summer collaborating with Nicki Minaj and performing at festivals around the globe. As the weather in the Bronx turns chilly, though, Spice is following the sun down under, where she’s been taking over stages across Australia. The 23-year-old’s latest performance took place this past weekend in Sydney. As per usual, she donned a booty-baring pleated mini-skirt while entertaining her crowd, though it proved to be a risky decision when her pyro effects nearly singed her skin in the midst of her twerking.

On the third slide of the post above, the “Deli” hitmaker confidently performs “Princess Diana” while leaning forward to throw her bodacious booty back. The flames don’t worry Spice at first, but after a few more blasts, she quickly turns around and yells “Whoa” into her microphone as the music continues. Elsewhere in her photo dump, the fashionista took notes from Sexyy Red and T-Pain by reposting a circulating edit of her dancing on the viral Kevin James meme that hit the internet last month.

Ice Spice is starting October off on a hot note, not only thanks to her Australian performance but also due to the hype surrounding her Variety cover story. In her interview with the outlet, some fans believe the New Yorker reignited her rumoured feud with Latto by referencing other artists who claim to be “girl’s girls” but actually act like “b**ches” behind the scenes. Read what else Spice had to say at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Tesehki & Natalie Nunn’s Messy Beef Continues On “Baddies East”: Watch

October 1, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Every woman who appears on Zeus’ Baddies shows is given her fair 15 minutes of fame – usually for coming to physical blows with another girl. As with most reality shows, some cast members appear in a less flattering light than others. On the latest season of Baddies East, which just began in September, it seems to be Chrisean Rock’s big sister, Tesehki, who’s the bad guy.

Due to her appearances on the “Lit” rapper’s Cr*zy In Love series, viewers are familiar with Tesehki’s typically aggressive nature. Early on in the show, rock let producer Natalie Nunn know that she had her reservations about sharing the spotlight with family, particularly because she was pregnant at the time, and didn’t want to risk a physical altercation harming her baby. Ultimately, though, the sisters saw past their differences and Rock co-signed Tesehki joining her. Unsurprisingly, the siblings appear to be at the centre of most of the drama we’ve seen so far.

Chrisean Rock’s Sister Calls Natalie Nunn a “Meatball” on Baddies

In a preview released earlier this week, Nunn and Tesehki get into a yelling match before the former kicks the latter off of her show. Prior to Sunday’s (October 1) new episode, another teaser revealed that Rock’s sibling calls the 38-year-old a “meatball a** b**ch” in front of the camera, among other things. “She’s a clown, she’s like, goofy as f**k,” the new Baddie spouted off to her co-stars while riding on the bus.

As Tesehki enjoys her moment in the spotlight thanks to her stint on Baddies East, her little sister has given us an exciting update on Chrisean Jr. in real time. Earlier this weekend, the Baltimore native shared that the weeks-old infant will have hernia surgery in the coming days after her baby daddy, Blueface, traumatically exposed their son’s health issue to the world. Read everything Rock had to say at the link below and check back later for more updates on Natalie Nunn and her Baddies.

Cardi B And Offset Reflect On Their Steamy First Encounter

October 1, 2023 by newhiphopnews

During a recent interview, Cardi B and Offset opened up about their first time meeting. According to the duo, who have been an item since 2017, they were attracted to each other from the very beginning. Offset says that he didn’t try to take things further with her right away though, out of respect for the NYC-born rapper. It’s clear, however, that their chemistry was undeniable.

“He invited me out to the club,” Cardi began. “He got right behind me and I felt him, you know, I felt him getting close to me. I felt his breath right here, and I’m like ‘oh my lord, oh Jesus Christ.’” From there, things only continued to heat up. The performer says that she wanted to keep things cool for the time being, despite Offset having taken her breath away.

Offset Didn’t Want To Move Too Fast

“The feelings is rushing through my body, I can’t breathe,” Cardi recalls. “But I’m gonna be strong and resilient, I’m not gonna give it to him right away.” Offset explains that he didn’t want to give her the wrong idea by trying to get intimate right away, so he held back. “I ain’t try off the rip,” he explained. “I ain’t even try. See, I respected her, you know. I knew she was thinking I was coming with that, but I respected her art, what she had going on, her hustle, what she was doing.” Cardi agrees, noting how he didn’t make that type of move “at all” before they were ready.

After secretly tying the knot the same year they met, Offset and Cardi B went on to have two children, Kulture and Wave. They duo continue to work together in both domestic life and in the studio, recently dropping off a single from Offset’s new album, “Jealously.” What do you think of Cardi B and Offset’s first time meeting?

Westside Gunn Not “Wasting His Energy” On Lil Tay Despite Social Media Star Co-Opting His Style

October 1, 2023 by newhiphopnews

While some of his fans may be calling out the 14-year-old, Westside Gunn is not sweating it over Lil Tay seemingly co-opting his lingo. “We know wats up, she’s a Kid tho im not wasting my energy, we ALL know POOTIE the inspiration for the kids we just seen covers get drawn and dialogue stolen right from here just like everybody Kopy her daddy ,” Gunn wrote on X. The rapper was responding a to fan calling out Tay for using Gunn’s signature “POOTIE” in a recent livestream.

While there have been some changes to her style, Lil Tay is still utilizing some of her old “world’s youngest flexer” persona. During a recent livestream, Tay responded to her haters, saying “I’ve been gone five years and y’all still broke” amongst other similar phrases.

Lil Tay Flexes Her Musical Talent

The same livestream that rallied Westside fans also saw Tay flexing some serious musical skill. Lil Tay continued her bizarre return to the public eye with the 14-year-old showing some serious musical talent. In a new livestream, Tay took to the piano to beautifully play a classical piece. Several people in the comments took to calling her “Taytoven” due to her ability. Later in the same stream, she moved from piano to guitar and near-perfectly played the ever-daunting Metallica classic, “Master of Puppets”. While Tay’s original internet persona was all about shock value, she is very clearly trying to forge ahead with her sheer talent this time around.

Furthermore, she also dropped a music video for her new single “SUCKER 4 GREEN”, which is a catchy if generic dance-pop number. While Tay and her mother, whom she now lives with, have expressed an interest in Tay genuinely pursuing music, not everyone is a fan. Of course, there are going to be haters. However, many people expressed exploitation concerns given the fairly sexual content of “SUCKER 4 GREEN”, especially given that Tay is 14.

25 Cocaine Bricks Wash Up on Texas Beach

October 1, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Massive Cocaine Discovery on Texas Beach

In a bizarre turn of events, 75 pounds of cocaine, worth an estimated $2.3 million, were discovered on Boca Chica Beach near Brownsville, Texas on September 27th. The cocaine was found hidden in 25 bricks, with an additional brick found at Padre Island National Seashore.

Authorities suspect that drug cartels may be involved in the trafficking of these drugs, but how they ended up on the beach remains a mystery. Beachgoers are advised not to touch any suspicious objects they come across.

This discovery highlights the ongoing battle against drug trafficking along Texas shores. In April 2022, cocaine bricks washed up on Galveston beaches, and in September 2021, a woman found one in Beaumont.

As investigators continue to dig deeper into this case, many questions remain unanswered. How did the cocaine get on the beach? Who is responsible for trafficking it? And what are the implications of this discovery for the fight against drug cartels?

The discovery of cocaine on Boca Chica Beach is a reminder of the real-world consequences of the drug trade.
