DaBaby Hilariously Trolls Diddy By Purchasing Tons Of Baby Oil For A Music Video

by

Diddy being a topic on every website and news station signifies just how serious his situation is. It’s not just another celebrity downfall, it’s magnifying just how too much power can really hinder someone to make rational decisions. Diddy had been on top of hip-hop and just the music business in general. But after breaking down lawsuits, the raids, and resurfaced clips, it’s pretty clear he was going by it wrong. What this has also done is continued to reaffirm just how much we as Americans love making jokes about grave matters. Take for instance DaBaby, who bought tons of baby oil for an upcoming music video.

If you have been on social media lately, you may have come across tons of memes and TikTok’s running with this item found in Diddy’s homes. Admittedly, they can be quite humorous, and this one is no different. A major artist doing this is certainly taking things a step further, as this could garner millions of views if it makes the final cut. DaBaby brings his twist to it by purchasing an egregious amount of lube and “accidentally” dumping it on the street.

A post shared by The Neighborhood Talk (@theneighborhoodtalk)

He laughs when he realizes his cameraman is filming him pulling the stunt and even jokes that he hopes no bystander saw him do that. As expected, some are finding it funny, but there are quite a few who find it insensitive. “This is the lamest thing that I have ever seen”, one IG user says in The Neighborhood Talk‘s comment section. “He never bounced back from being cancelled 🌽”, another adds. We can only imagine even more people will be upset if and when this makes the official visuals.

What are your thoughts on DaBaby mocking Diddy with the baby oil? Do you think we have an issue as a country by making a joke of everything? Or was this just plain funny? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding DaBaby and Diddy. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the music world.

It’s been a busy year for Drake. The new drop comes after his viral feud with Kendrick Lamar which saw him release several diss tracks aimed at the Compton rapper including “The Heart Part 6,” “Family Matters,” and “Push Ups.” Many hip-hop fans felt he lost the battle when Lamar countered with the hit song, “Not Like Us.” Additionally, Drake teamed up with Camila Cabello and Sexyy Red for collaborations in recent months.

Megan Thee Stallion Shows Off Her Trip To Japan In Music Video For “Otaku Hot Girl”

by

Megan Thee Stallion is a little bit of nerd if you were not aware already. That is especially true in relation to her love of the Japanese culture and the world of anime. Earlier this year, the H-Town Hottie became a Hiroshima Hottie, as she explored Tokyo and all it had to offer. Her fans, and lots of thirsty men alike, were absolutely loving the cosplay thirst traps she was feeding them. Furthermore, it seemed like Megan had a great time throughout her trip because some of that fandom makes it onto her self-titled LP. There are two tracks on MEGAN that display this adoration, and those include “Mamushi” and “Otaku Hot Girl”. In terms of the song itself, the latter is one of the catchiest on the record. It features the hitmaker spit some speedy flows, all while including some nods to anime characters. Because of all of these reasons, it is no surprise that “Otaku Hot Girl” is one of the few tracks to receive a music video.

Unlike the visuals for “BOA”, which are extremely flashy and seamlessly edited, “Otaku Hot Girl” is more of a B-roll. It includes various clips and photos from Megan’s trip to Japan. From trying to the local grub to walking in different stores, it includes it all. There is also a sneak peek of the photo shoot for the Hot Girl Summer Tour promo, which is a cool touch. For Megan, she continues to be at the top of her game. This set of visuals comes after an opening BET Award Show performance and an interview with Shannon Sharpe. This is her world, and we are just existing in it.

Ice Spice Is Cheeked Up In The Behind The Scenes Photos For “Phat Butt”

by

Ice Spice has been buzzing as of late thanks to her upcoming debut album, Y2K. Overall, fans have been waiting for this moment ever since the release of “Munch.” Her EP from last year was a huge success when it came to the charts. There were numerous massive singles, and she even got a feature from Nicki Minaj. Subsequently, her album is set to be released on July 26th, and fans are curious as to how it’s going to sound.

Ahead of this new album, we have already gotten three singles from Spice. For instance, we got “Gimme A Light” as well as “Think U The Shit (Fart).” Unfortunately, these songs didn’t move the needle all that much. However, her most recent release, “Phat Butt,” is proving to be a success. Fans feel like it is a nice homage to Nicki Minaj, and some think this could be a sign that Ice Spice is changing her sound. Meanwhile, on Instagram today, the artist shared some behind-the-scenes photos from her video shoot.

50 Cent Takes Fans Behind-The-Scenes Of His New Studio In Shreveport

by

For many rap fans, the most notable thing 50 Cent has done in 2024 is post on Instagram. The veteran rapper makes posts about all kinds of things but across the past 6 months or so he’s honed in on one particular topic, Diddy. The rap mogul has had a rough year as years’ worth of allegations have been made against him by former collaborators and romantic partners. In addition to the allegations, he’s also under investigation by the federal government. They raided two of his properties in Miami and Los Angeles back in March alerting the public to the investigation in the process.

The entire time 50 has rarely gone more than a day or two without posting about Diddy. The posts have come in a variety of different forms. They’ve featured everything from videos of people making allegations about Diddy to old photos of various celebrities alongside him, updates on his pending documentary about the situation and even AI-generated images. His attacks have also extended to almost anyone else mentioned in any of the lawsuits. In particular he took aim at Meek Mill because of his inclusion in Lil Rod’s highly-contested suit against Diddy. But now he’s shifting focus to use his Instagram for a different kind of post. Check out what he shared below.

Flavor Flav Says He is ‘King Swiftie’ After Discovering Taylor Swift’s Music

by
Who knew Flavor Flav was a huge Taylor Swift fan. Flav hit the The Grove in Los Angeles for the premiere of the Eras tour film. During his time at the event, Falv mingled with Swift's family and exchanged the frendship bracelets that have become a practice at Swiftie events.

Flavor Flav is standing ten toes down in his Taylor Swift love. Speaking on Hot 97’s Ebro in the Morning, Flav dubbed himself “King Swiftie.”

“It started because I got a girl that lives in Detroit and her kids wanted to go to the Eras Tour concert. So my manager got in contact with Taylor Swift’s people and they hooked me up some tickets and passes,” Flav said. “When we walked over to the tent where I was supposed to be at, a lot of these fans were coming up to me. These young kids, man, I’m surprised they even knew who I was!

“They start giving me these friendship bracelets. Next thing you know, I have friendship bracelets all up and down my arm. We were trading bracelets and everything! Her fanbase embraced me, and I embraced them back.”

Flav said after the show he began to take a deep dive into Swift’s music and made a comparison to Mary J. Blige.

“Mary writes about her experiences that she goes through, then when she gets out there on that stage and she sings those songs, mostly every single woman in that audience relates to Mary because all of the women go through similar things. Same thing as Taylor.”

You can hear the full story and more from Flavor Flav below.

In Cotber, Flav hit The Grove in Los Angeles for the premiere of the Eras tour film. During his time at the event, Flav mingled with Swift’s family and exchanged friendship bracelets that have become a practice at Swiftie events.

The Eras premiere also saw the two biggest stars on the planet, Beyoncé and Taylor Swift, hanging out. Making for a cute moment, the two sat in the first row at a movie theater and posed for a picture. Beyoncé would playfully toss popcorn to the camera.

“I’m so glad I’ll never know what my life would’ve been like without Beyoncé’s influence,” Swfit wrote on Instagram. “The way she’s taught me and every artist out here to break rules and defy industry norms. Her generosity of spirit. Her resilience and versatility. She’s been a guiding light throughout my career and the fact that she showed up tonight was like an actual fairytale.
