Travis Scott Riding Around In A Tank Has Fans Calling Him An ASAP Rocky Copycat Again

March 11, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Travis Scott and ASAP Rocky are two of the most influential rappers in the modern era. Both of their respective sounds have forged legendary careers for the both of them. However, fans love to make comparisons and these two have been subjected to that since the start. While they do physically look very similar, that is not the only way they get pitted against one another. A good portion of the hip-hop community feels that Scott has been biting Rocky’s style and creative direction. That debate was recently reignited after a video surfaced of the Houston rapper having a blast on a tank.

According to HipHopDX, fans are predicting that this is all for the music video for UTOPIA‘s hit song “FE!N.” If that rings true, Rocky fans and Scott haters are going to have a field day with it. Especially because, the ASAP member featured that iconic armored vehicle in his visuals for “RIOT (Rowdy Pipe’n).” Fans made sure to call that out in the comments, “@asaprocky trav on some riot shi.”

While people love to fabricate beef about celebrities, Rocky has been feeding into it throughout his career. In a popular sit-down with Hot 97 back in 2016, he saw the vision in the comparison and encouraged others to decide what they believe. “Let the people decide if he a biter or if he authentic.” However, there are times when he is tired of the beef rumors. In a social media post in 2019 he said, ““THAT ME N TRAVIS BEEF SHIT SO PLAYED OUT, LET IT GO.” It will forever be debated on who bit off who until they make music together it seems.

What are your thoughts on Travis Scott riding around in a tank? Do you agree with fans that he is biting ASAP Rocky’s creative flare? Is this rivalry actually real, or is it fan-made? Will this wind up in the music video for “FE!N?” We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section.

Latto Seems To Blast Ice Spice On New Single “Sunday Service” Amid Alleged Beef

February 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Latto and Ice Spice’s alleged beef is ramping up more and more by the week, it seems, with supposed back-and-forth shots. The newest entry in this saga is the former’s brand-new single, “Sunday Service,” on which she references the latter’s recently released song “Think U The S**t (Fart).” “These b***hes corny, soon as monkey see, then you know monkey do,” the 777 MC raps on the cut. “Do you rap or do you tweet? ‘Cause I can’t tell, get in the booth, b***h/ Stop all that motherf***ing yelling, h*e/ ‘Cause I ain’t buying what you selling, h*e/ Think I’m the s**t, b***h, I know it, h*e/ Jesus walked on water, I got ice boiling, though.”

Of course, that last line about ice boiling is another pretty thinly-veiled comment about Ice Spice, or at least, that’s what fans assume. There’s the obvious chance that all these shots and references are just to lean into the narrative, and that they don’t really have any real reason to beef with each other. Still, given how much femcee beef is based on loyalty these days, it’s clear that Nicki Minaj has very different opinions on both. Regardless, Latto is clearly not coming to play with her new tracks, and the most important thing about these disses is that they’ve all been on pretty good records.

Furthermore, this is also something that the teased visuals for “Sunday Service” suggested. By placing a black bar over many women’s eyes in the background, including Ice Spice, Latto hinted at this being a diss record towards a lot of opponents. If nothing else, it’s a very clever marketing strategy that gets us as fans immediately invested in deciphering potential disses. She probably knows that very well, and so far today (February 9), the only big shots that everyone’s talking about are those seemingly referencing the Bronx rapper.

Nevertheless, we can’t really tell where this beef will go from here, or if it’s really that serious to begin with. After all, they’re both enjoying a lot of career success right now that they could capitalize on and continue to develop. The Atlanta lyricist has a new collab out with Jennifer Lopez, which is huge for visibility, and Spice seems poised to make a big splash in 2024. On that note, check back in with HNHH for the latest news and updates on Ice Spice and Latto.

Fredo Bang Says Rod Wave Has Ignored Him Since He Linked With NBA YoungBoy

January 21, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Fredo Bang’s recent VladTV interview with DJ Vlad held some interesting reflections on his relationships with Rod Wave and NBA YoungBoy. For those unaware, Fredo and YB had beef in the past, and it’s unclear whether the latter is still hung up on it or not. Regardless, he told the media personality that Rod hasn’t spoken to him in a long time, probably ever since he started becoming one of YoungBoy’s closest collaborators and friends in the industry. Still, the Baton Rouge native didn’t indicate any ill will towards either of them, but said that he thought Wave would be able to put differences aside and reach across the aisle to both.

Furthermore, Fredo Bang explained how he doesn’t like to pick sides in beefs whose main actors haven’t wronged him or a loved one personally in any way. This is very interesting because his beef with NBA YoungBoy was something that he downplayed back in 2021, but tensions sremain. However, on that note, nothing big really happened to indicate they don’t like each other. As such, perhaps this is an opportunity to open a conversation between the three and let bygones be bygones.

Fredo Bang Reflects On NBA YoungBoy & Rod Wave Relationships: Watch

Another relationship that Fredo Bang is thinking about a lot right now is that of YNW Melly, who’s still awaiting his retrial in his double murder case. “I know a lot of people who have been in a situation like that waiting years and years and year,” he said of Melly’s mistrial and retrial process. “I just feel bad because I know he’s ready to get it over with. We ain’t even talked in a minute, because they stripped him of all his phone privileges, and stuff. He can’t even use the phone. So it’s been a very long time since I talked to him.”

Meanwhile, the Yes, I’m Sad artist artist is busy with some bizarre antics online, mostly related to commenting on other celebrities’ OnlyFans accounts. Even though he’s got a lot going on in his life right now, at least he leaves some room for fun. All we can ask for is that Fredo Bang stays true to his word. With that in mind, for more on him, Rod Wave, and NBA YoungBoy, keep checking in with HNHH.

Metro Boomin Seemingly Hits Back At Drake Amid Alleged Beef

December 19, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Metro Boomin and Drake have been at it as of late. Overall, the origins of this beef are sort of unknown. However, we do know that Drake was taken off of “Trance” which is s song that appears on Heroes & Villains. Furthermore, recently, Metro went off on the fact that Her Loss has been winning awards while Heroes & Villains is getting snubbed. He eventually deleted this post and it led to Drake issuing a response on his Instagram story. During a recent Kick stream, Drizzy actually responded in not-so-subtle fashion.

“To the rest of you — the non-believers, the underachievers, the tweet and deleters — you guys make me sick to my stomach, fam,” Drake started. “Look at my eyes — you guys wanna do something? That’s what I thought.” This was a pretty obvious attempt at going after Metro. At the end of the day, there is no one else he really could have been talking about. That said, it appears as though Metro has clapped back, albeit, in subliminal fashion.

The producer posted a sketch in which racist white frat boys are beefing with some black men. That is when one of the white people says, “Whoa Calm Down Jamal, Don’t Pull Out the 9.” It is meant to be a parody of white frat boys trying to speak a certain way, and it seems like Metro is putting that on Drake. Overall, the shot seems pretty clear, even if there are no names being said right now. Hopefully, these two are able to resolve their differences at some point. That may not come anytime soon, but there are fans out there who want these two on good terms.

With this beef in full swing, let us know what you think of it, in the comments section below. Should these two make nice or is it beyond that right now?

Tink Clears Up Hitmaka Relationship, Speaks On Their Current Status

November 24, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Tink and Hitmaka have a pretty bizarre relationship right now, one defined by high highs and low lows. For those unaware, they were in some drama earlier this year over an alleged physical altercation, with her accusing him of the attack and him denying that anything serious happened. Still, by the end of it in October, the frequent collaborators were not on very good terms. However, there was recent reason to believe that they made up, but it seems like they didn’t go all the way into a romantic partnership. Moreover, the Illinois rapper recently clarified their status on Instagram Live.

“He’ll take it to whatever lane,” Tink’s remarks began, with Hitmaka right next to her at what seems like a restaurant. What caused people to connect them romantically was a series of explicit messages. “We are business partners, and that’s the difference. I don’t owe you a dime. It’s just so much toxicity, that’s why I had to get on Live and bring it down. You have your ways, yeah, you got toxic ways. But at this point, I just want the music to resonate. That’s all I really care about.

“You know, business is business, y’all, I have a business relationship with Hitmaka,” Tink continued. “Moving forward, you know, what’s said in the music is music, it’s art. I have a lot of songs about relationships, you know? That’s what I do. Moving forward, we need to have peace at the end of the day. You not a pawn, but you a part of my life. If I have to speak on something, it gotta go there. I just want some peace, y’all. When the record come out, it’s coming real amazing. At the end of the day, we business partners, I have to meet with him and work amongst him. So y’all support me, and let’s not take each other down. That’s it! I don’t want no kiss, bro, take that s**t off your page.”

Of course, the close nature of this IG Live session still raises some questions for gossipers. Nevertheless, it’s much better to see them healed than at odds, especially in the service of their art. Let’s just hope that this stays amicable moving forward. On that note, come back to HNHH for the latest news and updates on Tink and Hitmaka.

Lil Reese Claims He Never Asked Kanye West Why He Cut His Verse From “I Don’t Like (Remix)”

September 30, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Lil Reese recently spoke about his alleged “beef” with Kanye West after Kanye cut his verse from the 2012 remix of “I Don’t Like”. “Nah, I’m not hating on it. I just want to know, like damn, why he ain’t put my part on there type shit. Like, I’m from Chicago, you from Chicago,” Reese told Adam22 and No Jumper. Furthermore, Reese says he’s never asked Kanye about it. “No, hell no. I ain’t never talked to him, ask him that. But I’m sure he heard about me saying that and he know. He know that shit.” Meanwhile, Adam joked that Kanye likely “can’t remember that part of his life anyway.”

The remix of “Don’t Like” featured Kanye and several other big-name artists in the place of Reese. The original had served as Chief Keef’s debut single and peaked at #73 on the Billboard Hot 100. However, the song went platinum, as did the remix. Meanwhile, Keef was serving a house arrest sentence when the remix came out.
