Joe Budden Is Demanding An Apology And Fans Are Trying To Guess Who He’s Talking About

Joe Budden is creating some debate and speculation surrounding a tweet he sent out on Monday morning. It reads, “Wonder if I’ll get an apology for saying ___ wasn’t dropping an album this year lol.” With a thought like that, it’s certainly going to stir up some guesses and it’s garnering plenty of those right now. 2cool2bl0g reposted the rapper turned podcaster’s tweet, and there seems to be a semi-general consensus on who he could be referring to. “It’s either about Cardi or Hov 😂” “Cardi on Spaces barking yet? 🙄🙄 Wash, Rinse, Repeat.” “😂😂😂😂He was right doe, Cardi gon have 2 albums in her whole career.”

Honestly, if this turns out to be the correct answer, it will not shock us in the slightest. Over the years, Joe Budden and Cardi B have locked horns on several occasions. They have made peace at times as well, but for the most part, things are usually dicey between them. Doing some investigative work, we are sort of in agreement with the fans’ Cardi B assumption. It would make a lot of sense as well because on Sunday via an Instagram Live the Invasion of Privacy femcee dropped a very disheartening bombshell on her fans.

“I’m going through a very different transition in my f***ing life and life is moving a little bit too fast. I don’t want to crash. I have to get my s*** together. Next year, my album will be out, my secret businesses will be out. I can’t tell you what I’m working on. Hopefully next year I get me a little boyfriend. I’m h*e-less right now. I gotta get my s*** together.” Then, just hours later, he sent out that apology request.

Those are possibly very telling signs that she could be the answer, but there’s more. Following a recent heated argument with Joe Budden this summer, Cardi affirmed that she was going to drop her sophomore album. “Wanna say this to Bardi gang or anybody who’s just a fan of my music or even my craziness…” she said on Twitter. I have my good days and my bad days but you know what, whether it’s good or bad I couldn’t be happier with the obvious anticipation for my album. Sometimes I get a little aggressive because yall know I don’t like to be told what to do. But I promise you it’s coming THIS YEAR.” Better keep those notifications on tonight because we may have an update sometime soon.

Elliott Wilson Apologizes To SZA For “Ignorant” Response To “One Of Them Days”

Elliott Wilson has apologized to SZA for his initial response to her new film with Keke Palmer, One of Them Days, as well as his criticism of her interviewing Kendrick Lamar for Harper’s Bazaar. When SZA shared a trailer for One of Them Days, Wilson wrote back on X (formerly Twitter) “Why?” Discussing their relationship on his show, The Bigger Picture, Wilson explained that he regrets the post.

Wilson began by revealing that he already apologized to SZA privately, but wanted to do so publically as well. “I’m a big SZA fan musically. I love the last album,” he began. “She teased more music coming, even though this record’s still top 20. She doesn’t have to give us no music anymore. She’s still on top. I selfishly thought we were getting more music. I had no knowledge that this movie was coming out. And I would assume if she’s in a movie, she’s only doing like a cameo or something. I didn’t know it was like a real thespian-type thing that she’s behind. I didn’t know Issa Rae was part of it. I didn’t know any of this sh*t.”

Wilson continued: “So, I ignorantly reacted to it. ‘Why we rocking to this? Where’s the slaps?’ That was my initial mentality, but that was ignorant. They tore my ass up on Twitter. ‘I don’t want Black women to win, make movies,’ and all this type of stuff. So, all of that got real nasty, but I already apologized. I just wanna say publically, I was definitely wrong for that.”

One of Them Days will be hitting theaters next January. It’s directed by Lawrence Lamont and written by Syreeta Singleton. Check out Elliott Wilson’s full apology to SZA below.

Ray J Apologizes For Excessive Diddy Comments Live On News Nation

Ray J recently made some wild comments about Diddy on the News Nation platform, which raised eyebrows for a few different reasons. On one hand, a lot of people are indiscriminately believing everything related to Sean Combs amid his scandal for alleged sex trafficking and more crimes, which surround his federal case and civil suits. On the other, a lot of people take issue with how flippantly and brashly Ray spoke on these allegations and his own accusations, wishing that he would keep things more professional. As such, he recently took to Twitter to apologize to folks who thought that he went too far and address how these wild claims don’t diminish the seriousness of his allegations.

‘[Butt cheeks]’ on News Nation was a lot!” Ray J began his message on the social media platform. “I was trying to say people are making up a bunch of stories and now I don’t wanna turn my other cheek but I can see where this was over the top! I’m taking full accountability for it. More on the way – this will help me moving forward #Accountability.”

Ray J Apologizes For Wild Diddy Comments

Sadly, all this drama and antic-heavy media attention also drove Ray J to a self-proclaimed “meltdown,” as he also relayed on his Twitter account. Basically, he wants to speak on the mistakes he’s made and become fully accountable in order to foster a more healing environment and “lead him to long-term peace.” The actor and singer has a lot of demons to battle, and they are situations that all this ruckus over Diddy certainly doesn’t help with. At the end of the day, we just hope that he finds the peace that he’s looking for, understands the weight of his platform, and treats these accusations seriously.

Meanwhile, Ray J’s latest accusation regarding Diddy is that various celebrities have reached out to them to buy their silence. Given how complicated and speculative a lot of discussions around these cases are today, take everything with a grain of salt. While we don’t know exactly what he means by “More on the way,” it could either be more “accountability” or more disparaging remarks against the Bad Boy mogul.

Halle Bailey Apologizes To DDG After “Overreacting” To Son Halo’s Stream Appearance

Halle Bailey and DDG announced their breakup earlier this year, and it seems like they reached their first big public disagreement as coparents. Moreover, the former took to Twitter to call out the latter for taking their baby boy Halo to a Kai Cenat stream without her knowing about it, which resulted in a lot of debate. Some folks think that she’s completely in the right, whereas others saw this as a misguided overreaction. Well, it looks like the singer herself agrees in part with the latter group. She returned to the social media platform on Thursday morning (November 7) to offer an apology to her rapper ex for her initially strong words, although she maintained the emotional core of her principal issues with this lack of communication.

“yesterday maybe i did overreact and shouldn’t have brought it here,” Halle Bailey wrote of the situation with DDG, their son Halo, and the Kai Cenat stream. “i know that halo is always safe with his dad. i just don’t like finding out with the rest of the world what my baby is doing. thank u kai for the gifts for halo [heart emoji] [star emoji].”

Halle Bailey Walks Back Her Criticism Of DDG & Their Son Halo’s Kai Cenat Stream Appearance

This marks Halle Bailey’s return to social media after briefly deactivating her Twitter over this whole situation, indicating that some time off the Internet helped her reach a more measured conclusion in her eyes. Still, she maintained that she wants DDG – or anyone, for that matter – to properly communicate what is going on with their son Halo if she’s not there, and affirmed her belief that he’s a great father to the baby boy. Hopefully the coparents can resolve these kinds of issues moving forward not in the public space first, but in a private manner that ensures communication without resorting to a public debate. Although that is sadly necessary on occasion.

Nevertheless, both Halle Bailey and DDG are still figuring out what to make of their split and how to navigate moving forward. It’s a difficult process, especially as celebrities, but hopefully their support and empathy can mitigate these problems in the future. As always, communication is key!

Proof’s Son, Nasaan, Admits He’s Jealous Of Cordae’s Relationship With Eminem

Proof’s son, Nasaan, has apologized for dissing Cordae over the years, admitting in a rant on X (formerly Twitter) that he’s been jealous of his relationship with Eminem. He previously called out the From a Bird’s Eye View rapper on his 2020 song, “Without Me.” He rapped at the time: “My shape isn’t in tip top? Then who saving hip hop? (YBN Cordae?)/B*tch you sound stupid as f*ck’ as a diss towards Cordae.”

In his social media rant, he wrote: “I apologize to the Cordae fellow. I’m growing & realize I started trolling you out of envy. Was gonna put all this in a song but rhyming sh*t with yo name is difficult n***a. He was getting the love from Marshall that I had always wanted but… unfortunately just never got. I felt like I was a way more talented rapper sitting in front of his face yet he chose him to champion. (granted I was 19) but I never quite understood it. I’m older & more mature now so I internalize all this a lot differently now… since a teenager I kind of just wanted to make Em & his team proud & build this uncle like bond with them where I can, come around, ask for advice wherever need be, etc and it just never got to that point and in retrospect I guess that frustrated me and made me jealous.”

From there, Nasaan explained why he’s decided to apologize to Cordae now. He wrote: “Lol tbh i feel like I owe dude an apology I trolled the sh*t out of him 3 years straight haha, and as far as Marshall I just don’t feel comfortable lying in interviews anymore its bothering me atp. yes there is no relationship. i have none with him. but who cares he doesn’t owe me that, he was my fathers friend not MINE. he took care of my family financially for years!!! off GP. he’s great in my book! I’m 26 now. I accepted Ill never get the relationship i wanted with him… the distant love we have for one another is more than enough for me 🫶 thank you for everything Marshall and sorry again Cordae. love you guys.”

Nasaan Speaks Out

Check out Nasaan’s full rant on X below. His father, Proof, grew up with Eminem in Detroit and was also a member of D12. He was shot and killed in 2006 at the age of 32. Be on the lookout for further updates on Nasaan as well as Cordae on HotNewHipHop.

Boosie Badazz Clarifies Controversial Comments About Daughter’s Sexuality

Recently, Boosie Badazz sat down with Yung Miami for a live version of her podcast, Caresha Please. During their conversation, he made a few remarks about his daughter Iviana, and her being openly gay. According to him, he doesn’t want her to bring home a partner out of fear of their homosexuality somehow “contaminating” his other children.

“I mean, she still can’t bring her situation to our house, my daughter’s grown. Because I don’t want it to contaminate her other… It’s a generation we raising. I don’t want her to contaminate her other six, seven sisters who look up to her. I want them to bring me grandchildren the right way,” he said. For obvious reasons, his comments were hurtful and offensive to many, including Iviana.

Boosie Badazz Says He Never Meant To Hurt His Daughter

She took to social media to respond, making it clear that she didn’t appreciate her father’s comments. According to her, he could have easily chosen to share his feelings with her directly instead of announcing them publicly. “Emotionally, mentally, you suck,” she said. “Like, I would respect if you just say, just one time, just say, ‘My daughter know how I feel about that, can we move on to the next question?’” Upon hearing his daughter’s response, Boosie took to Instagram yesterday to clarify that his goal was not to hurt his daughter.

“NEVER MEANT TO HURT YOU,” he captioned a photo of the two of them when Iviana was a kid. “DADDY BBY #iloveu.” He went on to share various additional photos featuring her and his other children. “We all we got,” he captioned one of them.

Lecrae Apologizes To J Cole For Drunken First Encounter

During a recent appearance on the New Rory and Mal podcast, Lecrae recalled his first time ever meeting J Cole. According to him, they had run into each other at a Super Bowl party, where he had a few too many drinks. Unfortunately, he says this resulted in an encounter so awkward that he woke up the next morning with serious regrets.

“I see Cole, I go up to Cole and I’m like, ‘Yo, what’s up, man?’ And he’s like, ‘What’s going on, bro?” he recalled. “I said, ‘Let me ask you a question, man. You believe in God?’ He was like, ‘Yeah.’ I said, ‘Word? So you go to church?’ He said, ‘I grew up in church but I really wouldn’t say that [I’m a Christian].’”

Lecrae Tried To Tell J Cole About Jesus While Drunk

From there, Lecrae decided that he needed to give J Cole his number so he could spread the word. “You need to call me, bro. Let’s talk!” he said. “It gets worse. [He was like] ‘Alright, put your number in my phone.’ So I put my number in his phone, but I didn’t type my name and then I gave him his phone back, and he walks away.” Lecrae then realized his mistake and stopped J Cole in his tracks. “I said, ‘Wait a minute! I ain’t even tell you my name, bro.’ He said, ‘I know who you are.’ I was like, ‘Oh!’ and I walked the walk of shame.”

Ultimately, Lecrae woke up the next day embarrassed by his behavior. “The next morning I was like, ‘Oh my God! What did I do?! What did I say?!’ So Cole, if you watching this, I apologize for the way I approached you,” he concluded.

Janet Jackson’s Alleged Manager Breaks His Silence After Being Fired Over Kamala Harris Apology

Janet Jackson’s alleged former manager, Mo Elmasri, says that the legendary singer fired her after he put out a statement on her behalf apologizing for questioning Kamala Harris‘ race. Jackson had done so during an interview with The Guardian over the weekend. “Janet respects Harris’ dual heritage as both Black and Indian and apologizes for any confusion caused,” Elmasri’s statement said. Soon after it was released, a representative for Jackson clarified that she hadn’t approved the message.

“I no longer work for her,” Elmasri then confirmed to Variety in an email. “I was fired by Janet and Randy, after attempts to improve her image in front of public opinion and her fans, and this is something I do not deserve.” He added that Kamala Harris has “all my support.”

As for Jackson’s original comments, she told The Guardian: “‘Well, you know what they supposedly said?’ ‘She’s not Black. That’s what I heard. That she’s Indian.’” When the outlet clarified that Harris is both Black and Indian, she countered: “Her father’s white. That’s what I was told. I mean, I haven’t watched the news in a few days. I was told that they discovered her father was white.” Harris’ father is a a Jamaican immigrant who came to the United States to study economics. Her mother passed away in 2009, but she was an Indiana immigrant as well.

Harris is currently running for President of the United States as a member of the Democratic Party against the Republican nominee, Donald Trump. She took over the campaign from Joe Biden, after he decided not to pursue a second term, earlier this year. Be on the lookout for further updates on Janet Jackson and the upcoming Presidential Election on HotNewHipHop.

Orlando Brown Receives Apologies From Fans For His Old Comments Following Diddy Arrest

The recent arrest of Diddy on federal charges of sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, and transportation to engage in prostitution led fans to discuss every past and present detail. One interpretation from all this is how folks are now looking back at previous allegations, stories, and claims about the Bad Boy mogul and wondering whether or not folks just missed the signs back then or if they are really just salacious gossip. As such, many fans are demanding apologies for Orlando Brown. He previously made some wild remarks about the businessman that, at the time, people didn’t believe for a second.

“[I] got to say no to Diddy,” Orlando Brown said when asked about Sean Combs in an old interview clip that recently resurfaced. “If there’s new booty in the building, you know he’s going to get it. You can take the b***h, but he wants you.” “This is real, just as real as what Orlando Brown was saying,” one fan commented on a social media post featuring this. “Only difference is ppl played with Orlandos credibility due to his drug use and theatrics but I don’t think his drug usage would prevent him w/ spreading those truths. Articulation is key element. Truth is there though.”

Orlando Brown Speaks On Diddy

“You know Diddy, one of my best friends?” Orlando Brown previously said of the disgraced executive in a contradictory statement. “So when you want to be a Kappa and you get hazed, didn’t you want to be a Kappa? […] We’re gonna haze you and haze you and haze you until you are a f***ing Kappa. That’s what happened. People sold their souls to Diddy, and then they’re mad now because the hazing process was a little bit rougher than they thought.”

Why would they not have sex when they’re gay rappers?” Orlando Brown claimed to No Jumper concerning Diddy and Meek Mill. “We all know he’s gay. Rick Ross knows he’s gay. He paid me $2,000 to say that right? You only paid me $2,000. Everybody knows I got respect for Diddy. I love Diddy. Everybody tried to come at Diddy. Why I’m gonna make it harder for my man? Yo, I love my man [Diddy].” With all this in mind, it looks like an apology to Brown would only be for one of the many conflicting and bizarre statements he’s made about Puff.

Diamond The Body Apologizes To Tesehki After Getting Her Tooth Knocked Out

For the Baddies fans out there, you know that things can get messy real quick. One recent fight in the reality TV show’s orbit got particularly bloody, as Tesehki allegedly knocked out Diamond The Body’s tooth at the franchise’s reunion. This followed a whole lot of social media clowning and fights which even escalated into a boxing challenge that is more ironic in hindsight than anything. The gloves really did come off, huh? Nevertheless, it seems like Diamond regrets what happened here, as she recently took to Instagram to bury the hatchet.

“Just because I didn’t mean any harm in anything I said online and because it was all jokes to me doesn’t mean it wasn’t received with harm,” Diamond’s apology to Chrisean Rock’s sister and others began. “I can’t determine how someone took in wat I said or how it made them feel … so for that I have to take accountability.. sorry to everyone that I’ve trolled on a tv show or online after a tv show !! I can always admit when I’m wrong !!

Diamond The Body’s Apology To Tesehki

“Sorry Nat sorry seki and anyone else I put in my ‘hitlist,’” Diamond continued. “I’m not built for this my hear too big hope we can all put it past us and move on [red heart emoji]. And to be clear I [do] not want to come back to Zeus. I appreciate the platform they put me on to reach the people that I have reached. I’m forever grateful to Zeus Network I did wat needed to be done. I got the clout I was looking for now yall stream my music.” Then, Tesehki seemed to reply to this message on Instagram with a somewhat surprising comment: “I accept your apology.”

Meanwhile, Natalie Nunn had posed with Diamond’s tooth after the Tesehki fight to mock her. “What happened to the pose for me post,” she mockingly captioned her video with the tooth. “Hahahaha diamond the body your amazing but your dentist sucks [three laughing-crying emojis] ur teeth was falling out left and right !! [three crying emojis] u just had a whole video up what happened ??? It’s down now ?? Please stay tuned baddie’s Caribbean.”
