Megan Thee Stallion And Cardi B Reunited For A Surprise ‘WAP’ Performance During The ‘Hot Girl Summer Tour’

May 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Classics always hold up. And the year 2020 brought us an instant rap classic. Four years ago, rappers Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion sent the world into shock with their collaboration, “WAP.” While their Billboard chart topper was immediately well-received by fans, the song proved to be controversial due to its lyrical content, as well as the sexual nature of its accompanying video. But regardless, it is a moment everyone will remember.

The two rappers have long sung each other’s praises, and nearly four years after the song’s release, continue to shake up the rap landscape. Tonight (May 21), at the New York City stop of Meg’s ongoing Hot Girl Summer Tour, the Bronx native Cardi B made a surprise appearance, during which, she and Meg performed the iconic raunchy hit.

Of course, Meg and Cardi’s performance was met with cheers from the audience, who couldn’t help but rap along to every single word. On stage, the two have undeniable chemistry. While “WAP” came out during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, the performance with the large crowd allowed for the song to finally have its grand live moment.

Cassie’s Former Makeup Artist Reveals Grisly Details About Diddy Attack

May 21, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It’s been less than a week since the Diddy and Cassie footage aired on CNN, but the fallout is still being felt. The latter’s career is effectively over, with nearly every famous musician in the industry denouncing him for his heinous actions. Diddy tried to apologize, but the public is paying far more attention to those who worked under him, and have painted a picture of the mogul as a manipulator. Mylah Morales is one of these former employees. She was Cassie’s makeup artist when the 2016 incident between Cassie and Diddy transpired, and she recently opened up about her experiences.

Morales went on Extra TV to discuss the CNN footage on May 21. She confirmed that she was with the famous couple the day of the physical altercation, and was confronted by the mogul shortly before he went after Cassie. “I don’t even want to go back to it because it’s triggering,” she admitted. “All I [saw] was him walking into the room and saying, ‘Where the f*ck is she.’ I didn’t know what was going on.” Morales was then tasked with trying to help Cassie after she had been viciously attacked by Diddy.

Mylah Morales Claimed She Couldn’t Take Cassie To A Hospital

The makeup artist told the Extra TV host that Cassie wasn’t allowed to go to the hospital. “I called my friend, a doctor at the time, to treat her because we couldn’t bring her to the hospital,” she recalled. “We didn’t know what the hell to do at that point. Who are we going to call. I’m scared just even talking about this, but I feel like somebody has to.” Morales also recalled the physical condition Cassie was in after the Diddy attack. “She was bruised,” she admitted. “I mean, badly bruised, like knots on her head, a black eye.”

Cassie ultimately recovered at Morales’ home. “All I cared about was to get her to safety,” the latter said. “And I took her into my house and kept her there for a few days.” As far as Diddy’s recent apology for the 2016 incident goes, Morales could care less. “That’s ridiculous, he didn’t even mention her name,” she pointed out. “And if he was apologetic about it, he would mention her name, but he didn’t. That’s what I don’t understand… Just a PR stunt.”

A Sixth Sexual Assault Lawsuit Has Been Filed Against Diddy

May 21, 2024 by newhiphopnews

A sixth lawsuit has been filed against Sean “Diddy” Combs. Today (May 21), New York Times reported that a former model named Crystal McKinney filed a lawsuit against Diddy, accusing him of forcing her to perform oral sex on him.

According to the lawsuit, McKinney, who was 22 at the time, first met Diddy in 2003, when an unnamed fashion designer invited her to attend a Men’s Fashion Week event at a restaurant in Manhattan. The suit notes that she had met Diddy that night, and was invited by him to accompany him to his recording studio. McKinney says she was given alcohol and marijuana, and later, says she came to realize it was laced.

The suit claims that Diddy led McKinney into a bathroom, pushed her head down to his crotch, and forced her to perform oral sex on him, despite her refusals. McKinney said she then lost consciousness, and woke up in a cab, realizing she had been sexually assaulted.

This is the sixth lawsuit filed against Diddy in recent time. Last November, Diddy’s ex-girlfriend Cassandra “Cassie” Ventura sued him for sexual abuse, and said suit was settled within 24 hours. Shortly after,Joi Dickerson-Neal and a woman identified as Jane Doe filed two other sexual assault lawsuits against Diddy. The following month, a woman also identifying as Jane Doe accused Diddy of gang-raping her when she was 17 years old. Back in February, Lil Rod accused Diddy of sexual misconduct.

Last week, a video allegedly featuring Diddy physically assaulting his then-girlfriend Cassie in 2016 surfaced online. Diddy has since taken to social media, filming an apology, despite denying allegations of abuse last November, when Cassie first sued him.

Woman Accuses Trey Songz Of Assaulting Her Friend At A Club

May 21, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Diddy was not the only mainstream artist who was accused of assault on May 21. Trey Songz was also named as the perpetrator of a sexual assault that took place an undisclosed amount of time ago. The R&B superstar was not formally charged with a crime, however, as the accusation came from a social media user who claimed to be a friend of the alleged victim.

The accusation against Trey Songz actually spawned a previous accusation made against the singer. Winter Blanco accused him of sexually assaulting her during a March 2024 appearance on Behind the Likes. The woman who came forward this latest accusation quote tweeted Blanco’s interview and used it as the jumping off point for the assault her friend allegedly experienced. “I’ll never forget Trey Songz was mad drunk and lit in booby,” the user @imdrinaa wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

Trey Songz Allegedly Forced Himself On A Clubgoer

The user then claimed that the singer forced himself upon her friend (who is not named). “He sexually assaulted my friend by making out with her. She was in such freeze mode because she didn’t know him at all.” The account turned even more harrowing with specific details of what Trey Songz allegedly did. “Wasn’t even no flirting going on. He just randomly turned around and kissed her ending it by spitting in her mouth. She was so disgusted she left the section with her money on the floor.” The user added that her friend got a tonsil infection shortly after the encounter.

@Imdrinaa concluded her statement by noting that charges were never filed. “Never reported it though,” she wrote. There were some X followers who were skeptical of the lack of detail surrounding the incident, but others believed it on the basis of Songz’s reputation. Three separate women accused the singer of sexually assaulting them between 2016 and 2021. Trey Songz has denied all accusations, and has never been formally charged. Las Vegas police dropped the most recent sexual assault investigation in April 2022, with the caveat that it could be reopened with new evidence.
