Key Glock, Mach-Hommy & More Went Full Force On Our New “Fire Emoji” Playlist Update: Stream

by

HotNewHipHop‘s Fire Emoji playlist is back to round up the best of the best hip-hop releases that came out this week, and we have a nice balance of singles and projects. First up is the latest banger from Key Glock, “F**k Around & Find Out,” which trades out his usual Memphis griminess for a more upbeat bounce. Regardless, Glizock flows like butter on here, and no style in the world can take his city out of his cadence, confidence, or diction. As for one of the best hip-hop albums this week (or year so far, frankly), Mach-Hommy returns with #RICHAXXHAITIAN. While the whole project is stacked with astonishments by every metric, we’d recommend the soulful “SONJE” with Hephzibah as a taster.

Elsewhere on Fire Emoji, the AOTY contenders continue with Rapsody’s Please Don’t Cry, which once again shows off her range and skillset as a top-tier MC. Of course, a Lil Wayne feature on “Raw,” as well as Niko Brim, would raise excited eyebrows, but their chemistry is something that somehow managed to exceed expectations. Another match made in heaven is Chance The Rapper’s collaboration with DJ Premier, “Together.” Star Line Gallery is shaping up to potentially be one of the most tender and touching hip-hop albums of the past couple of years, something that fans can’t wait for.

HNHH Fire Emoji Playlist: Stream

There’s one more new album we wanted to shout out on Fire Emoji this week, and that’s A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie’s Better Off Alone. While there are a lot of solo cuts here, the extensive tracklist also provides some solid collabs such as the woozy Cash Cobain team-up, “Body.” In fact, Cobain has another feature on the playlist this week, as NAV remixed Cash and Diany Dior’s “Favorite Lady.” It’s another blend of Jersey club, drill, and more minimal plugg and electronic sounds fused with pop trap, and checks the boxes well enough.

Finally, we’d be remiss not to mention Lupe Fiasco’s titular single for his upcoming project, “Samurai,” which is as classy as it is enveloping. If you’re looking for something more energetic, don’t head out before bumping 42 Dugg’s gritty “Win Wit Us.” Let us know what your favorite Fire Emoji release was this week, as well as what else we missed, down in the comments section below. Check out the playlist above and, as always, check back in with HNHH for more amazing music releases around the clock.

Gunna “One Of Wun” First Week Sales Are Quite Impressive

by

Gunna’s first week sales for One Of Wun are officially here, and given previous projections, it exceeded commercial performance expectations this time around. To rewind the clock for a second, 2023’s A Gift & A Curse debuted with around 85,000 album equivalent units. This 2024 release, on the other hand, just barely missed out on surpassing it, as One Of Wun‘s first week sales comprised of just under 83,000 units. According to HITS Daily Double, it will debut at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 behind Taylor Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department, and thus will be the highest-charting debut for new albums this week.

Furthermore, this is pretty much a big win for Gunna all things considered, especially as he’s spoken about focusing more on his craft and his substance than his hit-making or commercial potential. In fact, he even told TMZ that the Kendrick Lamar and Drake beef that raged on while his album dropped didn’t faze him in the slightest. The College Park rapper said that he prioritized focus during this whole process, which rendered him unbothered by whatever else was going on in the rap space. Clearly, that focus pays off, and hopefully inspires other artists to just stick to themselves and to not let outside forces deter them.

Gunna’s One Of Wun‘s First Week Sales

Meanwhile, this is a massive year for Gunna in many other areas, not least of which is his ongoing tour. There have been many great moments throughout, despite some other issues like rowdy and disrespectful fans and what seemed like faulty venue upkeep. But for the most part, it’s been a big hit, and a nice run that captures his momentum from the past few years. The comeback has been intriguing and sharp to say the least, especially considering all the snitching claims that loom much farther in the background than they did before.

In addition, Gunna also has his new clothing line to look forward to, which might be the most exciting new venture of them all. No matter what he’s got on his plate, it seems like he’s able to stay afloat and concentrated throughout it all. Wunna has stuck around more than some folks gave him credit for, and there are plenty of other ways in which he plans to stay. Let’s hope that they result in some great art and fulfilling moves as we continue to spin One Of Wun.

Diddy Accused By Producer Of Trying To Force Oral Sex Onto Him

by

Diddy has been in a whirlwind of accusations and lawsuits for the past few months over alleged abuse, sex trafficking, and more. However, while many think that the worst is already behind him, new claims, allegations, and potential evidence continues to emerge and build the unconfirmed and speculative case against him. The latest of these comes from producer Prince, who recently took to Instagram to claim that the Bad Boy mogul attempted to blackball him in the industry because he refused to perform oral sex on him. The Grammy Award-winning musician claimed that he’s been warning folks about Sean Combs for years, and only now are people retracting their previous skepticism.

“13 years I’ve been exposing this man #diddy,” producer Prince captioned his IG post with his claims against Diddy. “No one believed me till now. At that time when you were my age looking as good as I did s**t he wanted my a**, but homeboy didn’t know I don’t get down wit none of that s**t #westside @deathrowrecords.”

Producer Prince’s Accusations Against Diddy

“I told everybody that @diddy was a #BAN back in 2011 when he took a pass at me over the @frenchmontana deal,” the post itself read. “Noooo 1 believed me. Diddy tried to blackball me because I didn’t suck his d**k. But before investigating, he didn’t know my roots with the music industry & Suge Knight. What goes around comes around and I’m still here, MF. Yall seen the videos today. Yall should have listened to @2pac. Word to @50cent.” As for the video that producer Prince refers to, it’s new alleged camera footage of Diddy supposedly assaulting Cassie in a hotel hallway. The actions shown in the clip match those that she alleged he performed in her since-settled lawsuit against him, although none of this has seen an official ruling or confirmation under court of law.

Meanwhile, as more folks in pop culture react to the footage, Diddy finds himself fighting more of an uphill battle than ever. Hopefully the truth emerges soon through proper investigation, corroboration, and due process. In the meantime, we’re sure that things will only get wilder from here as accusations and unverified tales mount. Who will be the next producer Prince to comment on this scandal?

Wolffacejoeyy Drops His Debut Album “Valentino” After Years Of Anticipation

by

Staten Island, New York rapper and singer wolffacejoeyy has been creating a lot of buzz over the last few years, especially in 2024. The 21-year-old classifies himself as a sexy drill artist, and we can see why. He has an incredible knack for gliding over moody and sensual sped-up instrumentals with a buttery smooth cadence. People have been looking forward toward Valentino, his debut album after tiding fans over with mixtape titles all your fault (2022) and 22joeyy (2023). According to Genius, the origins for this project began back in late 2021.

Over the last three years, wolffacejoeyy has been steadily tweaking and restructuring every fine detail of Valentino. Now, all of that hard work and perseverance to push through and create his longest project to date has paid off. Originally, this was going to be an EP, but in an interview with The FADER, joeyy was destined to go all out for his fans and himself. “So, this one I wanted to really challenge myself, and my team really pushed me — they were like, ‘Yo, let’s try and make this feel like a full-blown project.’ So, the idea just slowly evolved into a whole album and building the world behind it.”

Listen To Valentino By Wolffacejoeyy

That perfectionist mentality is evident right from the opening cut to the closer. The “wya” artist mentioned how a handful of projects he considers flawless, led him to feel there was no room for error. “I’ve always wanted to make my own Days Before Rodeo… Rodeo or ASTROWORLD or Igor or A Love Letter To You 3 or Blonde… I always try my best to really go into [recording a project] trying my best to make it as seamless as possible, so everyone can listen to it from top to bottom.” We feel that wolffacejoeyy has a winner with Valentino, as the melodies and instrumentals are stellar and sticky. Cash Cobain would be a proud dad, being a pioneer of sexy drill himself.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new album Valentino by wolffacejoeyy? Which songs are you gravitating toward the most right now? Where do you rank this project amongst the rest in his discography? What song do you think is the best and why?

Ben Affleck Fuels Jennifer Lopez Divorce Rumors By Ditching Wedding Ring

by

Earlier this week, rumors started to swirl that Jennifer Lopez and her husband of almost two years, Ben Affleck, were heading for a divorce. Chatter began after a source spoke with InTouch magazine, claiming to have insight into the couple’s daily lives. According to the source, Affleck has already moved out of their shared “dream home,” and has since turned his attention to his children.

Only more fuel was added to the fire yesterday when social media sleuths noticed that J-Lo liked a post about unhealthy dynamics in romantic partnerships on Instagram. At the time, they hadn’t been seen out and about together in over a month. They’ve since been spotted attending a recital for one of his kids, Fin. Witnesses saw them chatting outside of the event, and him giving her a ride home afterwards.

Photos of Affleck from the evening reveal that he wasn’t wearing his wedding ring, leaving fans suspicious. It’s unclear whether or not this actually indicates that a divorce is imminent. Both he and J-Lo, however, have always worn their rings until now. Of course, this has only compounded rumors of a split. As for his allegedly former other half, she was seen rocking her ring at the beginning of this week. She hasn’t been spotted in public since Thursday.

Obviously, he could have simply forgotten the jewelry at home or left it behind to avoid it getting lost or damaged, but social media users love to speculate. What do you think of Ben Affleck being spotted without his wedding ring on? What about rumors that he and his wife Jennifer Lopez are headed for a divorce? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Wiz Khalifa ‘Does Everything’ With His Mother, And Yes That Includes Going To The Strip Club

A mother’s love is unconditional. But according to Wiz Khalifa, so is their level of cool. The “We Dem Boyz” rapper is known for his laid-back, easy going personality. But in his eyes, he is simply an extension of his mother, Peachie Wimbush’s free spirit.

Yesterday (May 17), during his appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show, Wiz outlined just how down to Earth his mother is, which included a family trip to the strip club. As Hudson and Wiz discussed Mother’s Day, the musician gushed about their tight-knit relationship.

“Mother’s Day is every day for my mom,” he said. “Peachie’s a superstar. If you meet her, you’ll fall in love with her. So every day is her day. Me and my mom do everything together.”

When asked what mother and son quality time consisted of, Wiz answered: “We go to the strip club together, we went to Mexico. We went to Coachella together. We do everything. That’s my dog.”

Well, the apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree. When it comes to parenting his son, Sebastian (whom he shares with Amber Rose), Wiz confessed that he’s also a cool dad. Earlier in the interview, he talked about throwing a West Coast gangsta themed party, fulled with low riders and more.
