Kanye West Has Fans Upset Yet Again As “Vultures” No Longer Has A Release Date

by

Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign have been working on a new album called Vultures. Overall, it is an album that has been surrounded by controversy. With Ye’s fervent anti-Semitism, there are those who are deadset on boycotting the album. Furthermore, Ye has delayed the album on numerous occasions. Of course, this is something Ye does all of the time, so we should have known better. All throughout December, the album was delayed, and most recently, the project was pegged for January 12th.

Well, it seems like that is no longer the case. According to Forbes a spokesperson for Ye has said that the album does not have a release date. Instead, the album’s fate is completely up in the air. There is some speculation that the album is going to be scrapped entirely. However, there are actual insiders who know for sure this is not the case. According to HipHopDX, one of those people is Malik Yusef. He recently told fans on social media that vocals are being re-recorded and that the album will eventually drop.

Kanye West Continues To Mess With Us

At this point, it does feel like the album is in limbo. While those around Ye are confident that it will still come out, the entire rollout has been absolutely painstaking. Fans are being left in the dark, and those who still support Ye are becoming a bit fed up with the whole deal. Whether or not Kanye ends up pushing things along, still remains to be seen. By the time it comes out, there is a real chance a lot of people will have moved on. Not to mention, there is still time to make this a STEM player exclusive.

Hopefully, some tangible updates on the album come sooner rather than later. Let us know what you think of the new project, in the comments section down below.

Polo G Gifts $10k To The Entire Cast Of One Of His Music Videos

by

Last month, Polo G released a deeply emotional new music video. It was for his single “Barely Holdin’ On” which has already racked up 16 million streams on Spotify. The video itself has over 7 million views in just over a month since its release. Now Polo is telling the story of how he shared the success of the video with everyone who appeared in it. According to People, he surprised the cast of the video with $10k gifts for each of them after shooting wrapped.

“It was an emotional roller coaster for many. Nobody was expecting to get the cash at the end. It was a huge surprise and everyone was in complete denial!” the video’s director explained. “Polo was very generous and wanted to make sure he could thank each and every person — he expressed his gratitude multiple times and gave them all the cash at the end. It was extremely nice and heartwarming of him,” he explains. Given the vulnerable nature of the video, it was a nice present from Polo G to those that starred in it. Check out the entire video below.

Last month, Polo G’s house was raided by police. The development surprised many, but it was followed up by an even more shocking development. While he was initially charged with illegal possession of a weapon after the raid on his house, both he and his brother were eventually handed down charges of kidnapping, assault, and robbery.

Following the arrest, Polo G let friends know that his album was being delayed. It was originally scheduled to be released this month, but the project was delayed indefinitely. While Polo didn’t specifically mention his arrest as the reason for the delay he did mention that he had to shift his focus onto getting other things in order first. What do you think of Polo G’s gift to all the stars of his music video? Let us know in the comment section below.

NBA YoungBoy Celebrates Lil Durk’s Album Pushback: Video

by

Decorated rappers Lil Durk and NBA YoungBoy have long had beef between them, but over the past few days, things have become particularly tense as they each prepare to drop albums. The younger of the two has already shared projects like Don’t Try This At Home featuring Mariah the Scientist and Nicki Minaj as well as I Rest My Case so far in 2023. The Chicago native, on the other hand, has been quieter, making appearances on Don Toliver’s “Leave the Club” alongside GloRilla, and linking up once again with the Memphis-born baddie for the Phatnall Remix of her “Ex’s” song.

While YoungBoy stayed true to his word and unleashed Richest Opp on Friday (May 12), Durk opted to gatekeep his LP a little longer. Instead, the father of six gave us a taste of what’s to come with “All My Life” featuring J. Cole. Just hours after its debut, Twitter users already can’t get enough of the joint effort and have been singing both lyricist’s praises loudly. For his part, the Louisana-born hitmaker operated without assistance on almost all of his 17 tracks, apart from “Chopstick,” which boasts an appearance from Ten.

NBA YoungBoy Turns Up After Lil Durk Delays His Project

Durk’s single is still obviously stealing some of YB’s spotlight, but he seems pleased to not be competing with his nemesis’ new body of work in a video that’s circulating online. While flexing a massive stack of cash and dancing around, the 23-year-old mimics shooting noises and holding a gun at the camera before hurling some insults the “Laugh Now Cry Later” collaborator’s way. “Bitch ass n*gga! You pushed back, you better not ever try it again,” Kentrell Gaulden chiefly yells. “Don’t play with me!”

Saweetie Partly Blames Her Zodiac Sign For Album Delay

by

Fans have waited for this album for almost two years, but it looks like the stars had other plans for it. Moreover, Saweetie recently placed partial blame on her zodiac sign for her album delay, which was originally going to drop in June of 2021. During an E! News interview on Monday (March 20), she addressed the consistent postponement of her debut album Pretty B***h Music. Still, it’s not like she’s been completely off the radar, given last year’s The Single Life EP. Also, she said that she’s been through a lot over her career and doesn’t want to force a shoddy expression of those experiences.

“I feel like a debut album is not something you just put out,” the Icy Girl stated during her conversation. “It’s not something you play with. I’m a Cancer so I like to overthink sometimes, but I think you have to be really careful with that and I take my art really serious. I’ve been through a lot of interesting experiences. So, I wanna put that all into my album in the most artistic and organic way.”

Saweetie’s Album Delay Is Because Of Her Zodiac Sign, She Says

As of late, a lot of the conversation around Saweetie regards rumors of her relationships with other rappers. While it’s always at least curious, it’s also disappointing to see her reduced to who she spends her time with, especially given that the rumors concern other colleagues and collaborators in the industry. In fact, it’s something that she addressed on The Single Life on the track “Don’t Say Nothin’,” where her lyrics question why “always speakin’ on who I’m f***in’ on.” In addition, the real disappointment about all these conversations is that she’s building a happy and healthy relationship with Quavo.

With all that in mind, it’s actually not entirely unbelievable that the California rapper would want some time to process things. Sure, her success has been stellar, but often might be bogged down by the extracurriculars of fame and being a female rapper in the industry. Whether it’s for her sales or her relationships, she faced opposition at many turns. Hopefully her debut album will be exactly what she wants it to be, and makes a splash upon its release. Let’s just hope a Virgo doesn’t mix the project. Regardless, check out the full interview here and log back into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Saweetie.
