Cam’ron & Ma$e React To Viral Cam Newton Skirmish At Youth Football Tourney

February 26, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Over this past weekend the internet was set ablaze by a video that surfaced from a youth football tournament in Atlanta. Cam Newton is seen fending of his three assailants with no help required. His fedora did not even move an inch to boot. The former NFL superstar quarterback does not really do a whole lot surrounding the game as much as he once did. However, he still feels he owes it to the kids to spread his knowledge about what it takes to reach the pros. Everyone was giving their reaction to the Cam Newton fight, including Cam’ron and Ma$e.

The It Is What It Is hosts never shy away from giving their unfiltered opinions and with a viral topic like this, they had a lot to say. Ma$e was adamant about not giving these kids his time again. “I think [he] should stay out of those camps. Cause it would have even been worse if he had a firearm or something like that,” the rapper said. For Cam’ron’s reaction to the Cam Newton fight, he just laid it out there that the kids were ignorant.

It Is What It Is Weren’t The Only Ones Supporting Cam Newton

Like we said earlier, everyone was giving their takes on this. Shannon Sharpe and Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson of Nightcap praised Cam’s behavior and composure. Additionally, Robert Griffin III tweeted out as well, according to Bossip. RGIII tweeted, “Cam Newton led Auburn to a Natty with 1 O-lineman that started an NFL game and no one else recording a NFL reception, rush attempt or pass attempt. He’s used to being a one man army, so you are delulu if you thought some guys jumping him was gonna phase him. Hat didn’t even move.”

What are your thoughts on Cam’ron and Ma$e’s reactions to the viral Cam Newton fight at the football camp? Do you agree or disagree with their takes? Did Cam handle this in the best way possible and should he return to any youth football camps? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section.

Mase Tells A Story About Being Scammed By A Former Business Manager

February 23, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Mase has been involved in his fair share of behind the scenes rap drama. Most of it came from his affiliation with Bad Boys Records. During a recent episode of It Is What It Is he opened up about being scammed by a manager who worked for him earlier in his career. He doesn’t name who specifically the manager in question is but does reveal that it came after he signed to Diddy’s Bad Boys Records.

“I remember when I first got a deal with Bad Boy Records, I think it was my first business manager, he ran off not just with my money, he ran off with everybody’s money. So, we ain’t have no money to pay taxes,” his story begins. “This n*gga ran off with everybody’s money. We couldn’t find him … I don’t want to say nobody’s name, but it was a few rappers. More than a handful.” He elaborates that he recruited Cam’Ron and some other rappers to confront the manager for running off with their money. Check out the podcast episode where they tell the story below.

Mase Tells His Story Of Getting Scammed By A Manager

Though Mase and Cam’Ron have shifted away from music with their newest podcast venture, they both claim they’re still capable of delivering heat. During a recent episode the pair revealed that they still have unreleased music together in the vault. It’s unclear if they have any plans to release it anytime soon, as neither seem to be focusing much on music recently.

The pair recently sparked a beef with fellow podcast host Shannon Sharpe. Mase in particular hit back hard after Sharpe mentioned him by name amid fans online comparing the two shows. What do you think of Ma$e’s story about being scammed by a business manager earlier in his career? Do you think he should have named names while telling the story? Let us know in the comment section below.

Cam’ron On Erykah Badu: “Nias Be Regular Up Until They Fk Her”

February 21, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Despite her incredible discography and contributions to the culture, Erykah Badu’s star-studded dating history remains a hot topic whenever her name comes up in conversation. “The Healer” artist shares children with three famous rhymers – Andre 3000, The D.O.C., and Jay Electronica – and has a reputation for radically altering the lives of others who she’s connected with. Among them is Common, who previously admitted he was left with minimal appetite while processing his split from Badu, who seemed to have a strong influence on his wardrobe during their time together.

Cam’ron, on the other hand, is a father of one son, whose mother tragically passed away after their reconciliation in 2018. Even with such a busy career, the fashion icon manages to help guide Cameron Giles Jr. in the right direction through his early 20s. Interestingly, he was surprisingly critical of Badu’s ability to lure in multiple men on a new episode of his It Is What It Is podcast with Mase. In Tuesday’s (February 20) video, they spoke about who’s more attractive between Lori Harvey and Amber Rose when Badu’s name came up.

Erykah Badu’s Hypnotic Ways Have Cam’ron Keeping His Distance

“She’s a homie too but I told ni**as, ‘She can’t get nowhere near me with that pu**y,” Killa Cam declared to his co-hosts after disrespectfully referring to Badu as “Andre 3000’s baby mom.” “That s**t she be doin’ to ni**as is [wild]. Ni**as be regular up until they f**k her. Then you start wearing turbans, yarmulkes, the tie-dye shirts. No, no, no! You got to chill,” the New Yorker concluded, seemingly poking fun at Common’s style evolution.

Cam’ron Must Pay $50K In Copyright Case Over Using Picture Of Himself On Merch

February 17, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Cam’ron will have to cough up some cash in order to cover his loss in a lawsuit against him from a photographer. Moreover, this is because he used the iconic picture of him in his pink fur fit for his Dipset merch, which he did not obtain the proper licensing for from the photo’s copyright holder, photographer Djamilla Cochran. Federal judge William Martini reportedly ruled on Thursday (February 15) that this use constituted copyright infringement, and that Killa Cam must pay Cochran $51,000. About $40,000 of this covers “statutory damages,” whereas the remaining $10,000 or so makes up for the photographer’s legal fees.

“The court finds that a statutory damages award of seven times the licensing fee is sufficient to compensate the plaintiff for the infringement of her copyright and to deter future infringements by punishing the defendants,” Judge Martini reportedly expressed. This lawsuit surfaced back in April of 2023, when Cam’ron and Dipset Couture received notice of legal action from Djamilla Cochran. However, this is not that surprising of an outcome when you look at how he had responded to the whole ordeal. The New York rapper never came through with defenses or explanations for his actions and did not legally or formally respond to this lawsuit, resulting in a default judgement.

Cam’ron During One Court Draft Week In 2023

Furthermore, there are still a lot of Dipset fans out there who would love to rock some pieces like this. As such, there’s still plenty of incentive for these parties to come to another form of agreement when it comes to the proper use of this photograph. But sometimes, big Dipset fans get clowned online, especially if they’re an even bigger MC right now. Cam’ron recently defended Drake’s fandom of the group during a recent GQ interview, remarking how it’s no different than any other artists showing each other love.

“It’s no different from anybody else just trying to show love,” he shared. “A rapper that’s younger than me who grew up watching what we did. I f***ing grew up wanting to get a chain because EPMD had the gold link going on, or Big Daddy Kane‘s rope chain. When it’s somebody of Drake’s magnitude, you ought to show love. A lot of people want to criticize and say he’s [too] commercial. He’s the modern day Michael Jackson that can also rap. You got to realize the type of run he’s on.” For more news and the latest updates on Cam’ron, come back to HNHH.

Cam’ron Confirms He & Mase Have Unheard Music In The Vault

February 16, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It’s no secret that Cam’ron and Mase are an iconic duo. They became friends as kids, formed a hip-hop group together in the early 90s, and then slowly started to drift apart. Eventually, their relationship turned sour, and Cam’ron accused Mase of being a “fraud,” kicking off what would end up being a years-long feud.

Luckily, the two of them were ultimately able to sort out their differences. They even joined forces to start a sports podcast together last year, It Is What It Is. It’s gone on to become a massive success, hosting various high-profile guests like Ice Cube, Stephen A. Smith, and many more. They even scored a major deal with Underdog Fantasy in August, giving the personalities even more room to grow.

While fans have certainly taken a liking to It Is What It Is, there are still many who’d love to see them go back to their roots again with more new music. Fortunately, it doesn’t look like they’ll have to hold out for much longer, according to Cam’ron. During a recent interview with GQ, he opened up about his early years, his latest career pivot into sports commentary, and even revealed potential plans to “take the show on the road.” He also hinted that some new Cam’ron and Mase music could be on the way soon. Reportedly, the two of them “already have a few songs together.” According to Killa Cam, however, fans will have to wait until Mase decides to release them.

Larsa Pippen Makes Fun Of Mase, Cam’ron Responds In Defense Of Co-Host

February 16, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan are on… a break? A pause? A short moment of reflection? We don’t know exactly what they’re calling it, but amid news that they officially broke up, they’ve been spotted together and there have been some conflicting reports on what their status exactly is. That still didn’t stop Pippen from responding harshly to people commenting on their situation despite the lack of clarity on their end. Moreover, she labeled Mase as a clown for his comments on her playing the victim in this case in his eyes, and Cam’ron came forward on the latest episode of their sports talk show, It Is What It Is, on Thursday (February 15) to defend his co-host for his take.

“I don’t understand how somebody who’s in the circus -– that is the clown -– can call somebody a clown,” Cam’ron remarked of the “talentless” Larsa Pippen. “You’re dead in the circus, boo. You on every housewife s**t, you on Real Housewives of this, Real Housewives of that.” You can check out their discussion on this matter around the 53-minute mark of the video below.

Cam’ron Goes In On Larsa Pippen After Clap-Back At Mase: Watch

“That’s Scottie’s nephew,” Cam’ron continued about Larsa Pippen’s 16-year age gap with Marcus Jordan, whose father was a fellow Chicago Bull with Scottie, her ex-husband. “Come on, man. You watched this kid grow up! You f***ing with a n***a’s nephew.” In addition, Mase labeled the situation as “Woody Allen-ish.” “This is nasty,” Killa Cam went on. “You watched this young man grow up and then you said, ‘Listen, I’ma lay on him ’cause I see he ain’t his father. I can get him. He don’t have his father’s traits.’ Look, there’s no reason to call Mase a clown when you in the circus, boo… You’re gonna be 50 this year. You’re not Lori Harvey. You look stup*d!”

“How dare she have any rebuttal for taking a man 16 years younger than you and acting like he’s the problem,” Mase had expressed in an earlier episode. “You’re the adult! What are you talking about? Ain’t you Scottie’s ex-wife? Now you mad with the Pippens and the Jordans? You got no future in Chicago, I can tell you that! You mad with Batman and Robin and now Baby Batman? This is really embarrassing. What was you thinking? Your kids grew up with this boy! Somebody gotta tell people the truth. You were taking advantage of him. I really don’t like this situation. And then gon’ delete all his pictures like he’s the problem. Larsa, you’re not 21. You’re not Lori Harvey! You gotta stop this.” For more on Cam’ron, Mase, and Larsa Pippen, stay logged into HNHH.

Cam’ron Compares Drake To Michael Jackson: “You Got To Realize The Run He’s On”

February 15, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Drake is easily one of Cam’ron’s favorite MCs of the contemporary era, something that he will probably never stop defending. Moreover, the Dipset MC recently covered GQ and made some interesting remarks about the 6ix God during his talk with the outlet. “When it’s somebody of Drake’s magnitude, you ought to show love,” he explained. “A lot of people want to criticize and say he’s [too] commercial. He’s the modern-day Michael Jackson that can also rap. You got to realize the type of run he’s on.” While some may not compare The Boy to The King Of Pop, it’s getting harder and harder to argue that the only thing separating their levels of success, influence, and acclaim is their eras.

Of course, they both have reasons as to why folks doubt their legacy as dominant forces in their respective fields. Some of it has to do with the music, and a lot of it has to do with their alleged actions and movement beyond it. Nevertheless, Drake still has a long way to go when it comes to reaching that same level of near-universal praise that MJ has. You may recall a recently fiery debate about whether or not he’s hip-hop, which Yasiin Bey kicked off with a strong argument in favor of the 37-year-old being more of a pop artist.

Drake Is The Modern-Day MJ, Cam’ron Argues

A post shared by THE HIP-HOP WOLF® (@thehiphopwolf)

However, what the MC formerly known as Mos Def stated with his thoughts is exactly the reason why folks like Cam’ron praise Drake. He has been able to stay sharp and impressive from a pure hip-hop standpoint, albeit inconsistently, while also reaching pop highs that most other artists in the genre had never been able to get close to. What the New York lyricist is getting at is that the Toronto star’s impact and the doors he’s opened already warrants immediate respect and praise. Whether it’s a perfect fit or not doesn’t matter; he’s too big to not impact every facet of the game.

Meanwhile, Drizzy also reciprocates Killa Cam’s praise often, and you can always count on him to shout out his favorite MCs of then and of now. Would you go as far as to compare him to Michael Jackson? Let us know what you think about all these debates in the comments down below.

Cam’ron Gets To The “It Is What It Is” Set Early To Spit Fire “Two-For-One” Freestyle

February 14, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Cam’ron is one of the very special talents we have going in rap music. Even though he has been releasing music since the late 1990s, Killa Cam still manages to drop heat. The Harlem, New York native is still active as well, even with his very popular sports talk show that shoots it straight, It Is What It Is. In 2023, Cam’ron hit us with The Lost Files: Vol. 1 and U Wasn’t There in 2022. Additionally, he put out four singles last year, and has a couple in 2024 as well. His most recent was for a KITH collaboration called “Last Stop.” The now 48-year-old Cam’ron is back with a new freestyle called “Two-For-One.”

According to HipHopDX, the TV host posted the hot bars on the Instagram page for It Is What It Is. Cam’ron cleverly named the freestyle “Two-For-One” because he gave fans two off-the-dome performances on separate occasions. Additionally, both were done at the recording studio about 10 minutes apart. The first of them was laid down right before the program began with his hairdresser getting Cam ready.

The Dipset rapper spazzed on more a trap flavored instrumental. Then, for freestyle number two, he switches things up to the familiar “Mo’ Money, Mo’ Problems” sample. It is more of fun and easy-going listen compared to the serious, braggadocious tone of the first. You can check out the full clip with the IG link above.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new freestyle, “Two-For-One,” by Cam’ron? Is he the best freestyler ever, why or why not? Does he need to drop this on DSPs? Should he put out a new album this year? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to tell us in the comments below. Additionally, keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Cam’ron. Finally, stay with us for the most informative song posts throughout the week.
