Conor McGregor Accused Of Cocaine Addiction After Bizarre Interview

March 14, 2024 by newhiphopnews

A number of fans have theorized that Conor McGregor is being kept out of the octagon due to a cocaine addiction. “Bro is absolutely geeking . The UFC brass is trying to keep him away from the octagon because they know how bad his cocaine addiction has gotten,” one person wrote on X, formerly Twitter. Their evidence for this was a particularly energetic interview with McGregor in which he didn’t appear entirely sober.

McGregor is expected to return to the Octagon later this year. However, there has already been some drama around his return. In December, McGregor announced that he intends to return to the Octagon in June, with his opponent being long-time rival Michael Chandler. “I’d like to announce the return date for myself, ‘Notorious’ Conor McGregor. The greatest comeback of all time will take place in Las Vegas, International Fight Week of June 29. The opponent, Michael Chandler — and the weight, Mr. Chandler, 185 pounds,” McGregor announced in a video on X. However, the UFC never confirmed the fight.

Conor McGregor “Raps” During Twitter Beef, Immediately Deletes His Verse

Elsewhere, McGregor tried his hand at rapping after getting into a feud on X, formerly Twitter. McGregor posted a 2-minute verse aimed at Scott Moore, a political commentator and battle rapper from Northern Ireland, after Moore called McGregor “a profoundly stupid person”. McGregor’s stilted verse took aim at Moore’s appearance and Northern Irish origin. However, like many of McGregor’s tweets, it was quickly deleted from McGregor’s page. Moore still responded to McGregor’s verse with one of his own, going as far as to essentially call McGregor an English collaborator. However, his call for McGregor to face him in person was short-lived as McGregor simply chose to block him instead.

All of this stemmed from McGregor posting a selfie with the caption “Ireland, your President”. That’s what sparked the original comment from Moore. Furthermore, Moore informed McGregor that it was below the belt to go after his appearances and mannerisms as Moore suffers from a mental health condition that causes him to pick at his skin and is also autistic, meaning there are many mannerisms he can’t control. Unfortunately, the prevailing opinion online was that this was another L for the MMA great.

Joe Biden’s Energetic State Of The Union Has Republicans Pedaling Cocaine Conspiracies

March 8, 2024 by newhiphopnews

After months of theories claiming that President Joe Biden had dementia, Republicans pivoted to a new attack after an energetic State of the Union address last night. Several Republican influencers, as highlighted by Media Matters For America‘s Matthew Gertz, began suggesting that Biden was hopped up on more than just patriotism. “I think I just got to the bottom of the untraceable little baggie found at the White House,” wrote Fox host Julie Banderas.

Biden, who finds himself between right-wing critics attacking him on border control and left-wing critics attacking him on Gaza, came out swinging in his annual address to Congress. Amongst the topics addressed were a warning to Vladimir Putin, a promise to restore Roe v. Wade, and the announcement of a temporary seaport to circumvent the Israeli blockade of Gaza. However, the official Republican response, delivered by Alabama Senator Katie Britt, took aim at Biden’s immigration record and tried to champion the GOP as the “defenders of women”.

Donald Trump Issues Unhinged Response To State Of The Union

During Biden’s speech last night, you could see the right recognize in real time that their attempts to brand him as a dementia patient were failing and coalesce on a new narrative: Biden was on drugs. https://t.co/jwPUFUspAy pic.twitter.com/r22A6FooCO

Meanwhile, Donald Trump had his own response to Joe Biden. ”That may be the Angriest, Least Compassionate, and Worst State of the Union Speech ever made. It was an Embarrassment to our Country! He wants our Country to be flooded with Migrants,” Trump ranted. Alongside his progressive slate of policies, Biden had also taken shots at Trump over the January 6 insurrection. Biden said his likely November opponent had “failed in his duty of care” as President.

Furthermore, Trump took aim at Mark Zuckerberg. ”If you get rid of TikTok, Facebook and Zuckerschmuck will double their business. I don’t want Facebook, who cheated in the last Election, doing better. They are a true Enemy of the People!” Trump claimed. The former President, who is currently the presumptive Republican nominee for November’s election, certainly made a choice by invoking electoral fraud. Trump is currently facing multiple legal cases surrounding his attempts to interfere with the 2020 election.

Johnny Manziel Reveals He Lost 40lbs Due To Cocaine Use After Being Cut By The Browns

February 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

During his recently-published Club Shay Shay interview, Johnny Manziel revealed that after being cut by the Browns in 2015, he would lose 40lbs due to his excessive cocaine use. “At that point in time, man. I would look in a mirror and I didn’t see myself any different than when I was in Cleveland. Until I stepped on a scale at the Cosmopolitan Hotel in Las Vegas, I didn’t realize I had lost 40 pounds at all,” Manziel told Shannon Sharpe.

Previously, Manziel revealed that he had a plan to kill himself following his departure from the Browns. “I think I was just running from problems. It was probably a $5 million bender. Direct self-sabotage, trying to burn this thing down. I had planned to do everything that I wanted to do at that point in my life. Spend as much money as I possibly could and then my plan was to take my life. Months prior, I went and bought a gun I knew I was going to use. I wanted to get as bad as humanly possible to where it made sense and it made it seem like an excuse and an out for me,” Manziel said in an episode of Untold that aired last year.

Johnny Manziel Apologizes Drake For “Letting Him Down”

Meanwhile, Manziel also used the two-hour conversation with Sharpe to offer an apology to Drake. “Who believes in curses like that [The Drake Curse]? That guy’s the most positive energy, great aura. Maybe he picks wrong sometimes in the people, teams or whatever it is or his bets, but that’s life, right? There is no curse. That’s to each his own, you know? If I handle my business in the proper way, I make him proud, right? Our relationship changes; so like there’s a lot of people that I let down and I truly feel like him and LeBron [James] at a point in time were people that I really really let down, you know? At that point in time [2016], I was so selfish that I was dragging everybody that was tied to me through the mud,” Manziel said.

Drake was one of Manziel’s biggest supporters as the Texas A&M QB looked toward the NFL. In fact, Drizzy went as far as to pen the track “Draft Day” in honor of Manziel. However, as we all know, Manziel simply wasn’t cut out for the NFL. After being drafted 22nd overall by the Browns in 2014, Manziel was out of the league after his second season.

Kodak Black’s Lawyers Call For Drug Charges To Be Dropped

January 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Last month, Kodak Black was arrested by police and hit with a few charges, including for drug possession. Though he pretty quickly pleaded not guilty to the accusations he’s been held in jail ever since for violating his probation. Police claim that Kodak was discovered with white powder around his mouth which he tried to hide from police. The charges filed against him claim that the substance was cocaine but his lawyers have denied that right out of the gate. His attorney denied that the substance was cocaine, claiming instead that it was Percocet.

Since the arrest, Kodak Black’s lawyers have been fighting to get him free. One of their first attempts was to get him released into a drug rehab program. Despite his clear struggle with substances, the judge denied that request. In the reasoning given, the judge described Kodak as a “danger to the community” as a justification for not releasing him. The news kept getting even worse for Kodak in the weeks that followed. News broke that he could end up being forced to serve a previously pardoned jail sentence. He famously had a sentence commuted by Donald Trump a few years ago but may end up having to serve that time anyway. Check out the latest developments in the story below.

Kodak Black’s Lawyers Fighting Drug Charges

Now in their newest legal move, Kodak’s lawyers are once again calling for his drug charges to be dropped. According to TMZ, in newly filed legal documents they claim that new tests have confirmed exactly what they said about the powder found on Kodak. Reportedly, his defense has evidence that it was in fact Oxycodone which he also reportedly has a prescription for.

The judge hasn’t made a ruling on the filing yet. The call will seemingly be determined by how strong the evidence presented by the rapper’s defense actually is. What do you think of Kodak Black’s lawyers claiming his drug case should be dismissed after new tests? Do you think the drug charges will be dropped before Kodak goes to trial? Let us know in the comment section below.

Antonio Brown Blasts Michael Irvin In New Twitter Rant

December 24, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Antonio Brown had a bone to pick this holiday season, as he just unleashed some attacks against football legend Michael Irvin. Of course, this might just be because the former wide receiver and now commentator has often spoken out about his antics, behavior, game, and general place within or outside of the NFL. Still, there doesn’t really seem to be much of a news item attached here other than Irvin’s recent list of the greatest wide receivers in league history. As you probably guessed, he left off Brown, which prompted him to get scandalous and homophobic in response. It’s just the latest addition in his long series of wild statements and claims.

“Sleeping at the top with Nightmares at the bottom,” Antonio Brown tweeted recently, starting off his tirade with what sounds like a bar. “Everybody want to be fly Until you swat em. Michael Irvin stay off the cocaine I got way more stats than you f***ot. You from Broward not Miami we slap the s**t your old a**. Merry chrisma PlayerHater.” At least he didn’t namedrop Keke Palmer this time, or invoke any other wild celebrity takes or attitudes in this instance.

In other news, Michael Irvin is too preoccupied with his commentary endeavors to pay this much mind, although that’s exactly the avenue that might prompt him to respond. In addition, he’s also quite busy with parenting, but that’s more of a comical relationship if you go off of recent headlines. For example, the Cowboys legend recently clowned his son’s rap career, joking that he’s trying to flex while having grown up in a gated community. Not exactly the most supportive of statements, but at least it seemed in good fun.

Meanwhile, there’s no telling what AB will say or do next, whether it’s about the NFL or his personal life. Hopefully he’s able to find some stability and happiness and this isn’t the result of wider issues or unresolved conflicts. For now, though, it seems like this will continue to be an angle of controversy and chaos in the public eye.

December 7, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Earlier today, it was reported that Kodak Black was arrested in Plantation, FL, and charged with possession of cocaine. He was also charged with tampering with physical evidence and improper stop/stand/park. He’s scheduled to appear before a Florida judge in court later today. Details surrounding the arrest were previously unclear, however, now his arrest report has shed more light on what took place.

In the report, obtained by XXL, it’s revealed that officers caught the rapper swallowing a mouthful of cocaine during a traffic stop. Apparently, his Bentley was parked and blocking part of the road when an officer approached. The officer quickly realized that Kodak was asleep behind the wheel, and noticed the smell of marijuana coming from the vehicle. He also claims that a styrofoam cup, allegedly containing alcohol, was in the car.

The officer claims to have asked Kodak Black if there were any drugs in the vehicle, to which he responded, “weed.” Another cop went to run the rapper’s license when he saw white powder falling out of Kodak’s mouth. Kodak claimed it was Percocet, however, subsequent testing confirmed that it was cocaine. News of Kodak’s arrest follows weeks of rumors that he’s struggling with substance abuse issues, which arose after he appeared on Drink Champs in October. His unusual behavior during the interview sparked concern, leading to countless fans and peers speaking out and urging him to get help. The rapper has since denied having a problem.

The news also follows Kodak Black’s November filing for his previous drug possession case to be thrown out. He was reportedly caught with 31 oxycodone tablets in 2022, however, he argues that they were just Tylenol. His lawyer, Bradford Cohen, accuses the Broward Sheriff’s Office of being involved in a “coordinated takedown” of the rapper. What do you think of Kodak Black reportedly swallowing a mouthful of cocaine ahead of his arrest? Are you surprised?

Chrisean Rock Under Fire For Drugs Spotted In New Picture

October 7, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Another day, another parenting controversy for Chrisean Rock, who barely has to do anything to get some hate online. While that’s a pretty unfair attitude to hold against someone, there are also plenty of people who say it out of genuine concern. Moreover, this newest debacle involves a video that she posted on social media, where her newborn son with Blueface Chrisean Jr. is nowhere to be seen. In the clip, you can see what appear to be faint lines of cocaine on a desk in the room, which many obviously took issue with. Even though it’s impossible to tell whether the Baltimore native indulged, people still blasted her for the proximity online.

In fact, it seems like this discussion around Chrisean Rock’s video is aiming the controversy more towards her accusers. “lol room full of yt boys and yall assume the black girl is the one doing coke. Lol yall really hate that girl,” one user expressed under an Instagram post covering the clip. It’s definitely fair to say that public perception of the Baddies star flips a lot of narratives against her, even ones where she doesn’t deserve it. Still, a lot of people are simply looking out for Chrisean Jr. online, and keeping him and his mother’s health and postpartum lifestyle in mind when they see these things pop up.

Chrisean Rock Sparks Fan Debate After Cocaine Shows Up In Her Video

Fortunately, though, it seems like the family is doing well these days. Chrisean Rock recently shared that she took her baby boy for hernia treatment, and it looks like things went smoothly. “It just kept dragging,” she said of the process on social media. “I met with so many f***ing doctors, bro. I was getting irritated with my damn self. Like, bro, I just want my baby fixed.” “Papa you so handsome,” the California rapper’s baby mama wrote on Instagram alongside a clip of Chrisean Jr. “You recovering so fast.”

With this in mind, at least the Rock/Malone family overcame a scary situation. That doesn’t mean the mother indulged in one with this recent video, and fans just hope that stays true. Regardless, we’re sure there will be more controversial moments to come. For more news and the latest updates on Chrisean Rock, check back in with HNHH.

25 Cocaine Bricks Wash Up on Texas Beach

October 1, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Massive Cocaine Discovery on Texas Beach

In a bizarre turn of events, 75 pounds of cocaine, worth an estimated $2.3 million, were discovered on Boca Chica Beach near Brownsville, Texas on September 27th. The cocaine was found hidden in 25 bricks, with an additional brick found at Padre Island National Seashore.

Authorities suspect that drug cartels may be involved in the trafficking of these drugs, but how they ended up on the beach remains a mystery. Beachgoers are advised not to touch any suspicious objects they come across.

This discovery highlights the ongoing battle against drug trafficking along Texas shores. In April 2022, cocaine bricks washed up on Galveston beaches, and in September 2021, a woman found one in Beaumont.

As investigators continue to dig deeper into this case, many questions remain unanswered. How did the cocaine get on the beach? Who is responsible for trafficking it? And what are the implications of this discovery for the fight against drug cartels?

The discovery of cocaine on Boca Chica Beach is a reminder of the real-world consequences of the drug trade.

Juicy J On Never Doing Cocaine: “I Just Felt Like If I Did It, I’d Die”

September 11, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Juicy J made an appearance on The Breakfast Club on Monday (Sept. 11) to talk about his new recently released memoir Chronicles of the Juice Man. The memoir discusses challenges that Juicy J faced coming up, as well as his ascent to stardom. Revealing the path that led him from the gritty streets of Memphis in the 1980s, the Three 6 Mafia legend shares his story. He offers readers a vivid picture of his unwavering dedication to success amid numerous distractions. While Juicy J’s past includes experimenting with various substances, there’s one drug he has steadfastly sworn off: cocaine. During the interview, he revealed that this decision is deeply rooted in a haunting childhood memory. He watched a television report about a basketball player whose tragic demise was attributed to cocaine use.

“When I was like a kid, I was watching TV and I seen this basketball player named Len Bias and they said, ‘Oh, Len Bias — he died on cocaine,” Juicy J explained. “I was like, ‘I ain’t never doin’ cocaine.’ When I seen that, it stuck in my head. I just felt like if I did it, I’d die.”

Juicy J Talks New Memoir

Consequently, Juicy J went on to reflect on how he began noticing cocaine all around him shortly after that moment. Throughout his career, despite numerous opportunities and offers to indulge in cocaine, he consistently declined. Notably, before Three 6 Mafia’s Verzuz battle with Bone Thugs-n-Harmony in 2021, Juicy J engaged in a candid conversation with Nas and Miss Info on The Bridge: 50 Years of Hip Hop. He openly discussed the rampant drug use that contributed to his group’s eventual downfall. “From heroin to meth to cocaine, all kinds of pills,” he continued. “A lot of drugs were consumed during the times we were together. When everybody was sober and s–t, everybody’s on the same page. But when cocaine’s involved, you know things change. But I’m not pointing a figure at nobody, it happened.”

In earlier interviews, Juicy J has taken a vocal stance against drug use. He has shared a memory in which he deeply regrets not intervening when Mac Miller was using drugs in the studio. In a conversation with Allison Kugel, he recalled a time when Mac Miller brought in a “party pack” of drugs to the session. “We was in the recording studio and he had a party pack … it’s like every kind of drug you can take and it’s in a pack or a box or whatever,” Juicy J said to Kugel. “He pulls out this box and pops a couple of things and he offers me some coke. If I could turn back the hands of time, I would have snatched that box. And I know he probably would have tried to fight me, but I would have snatched that box and I would’ve dumped it in the toilet and flushed it.” This glimpse into Juicy J’s life and convictions underscores his enduring commitment to both his personal journey. In addition, he emphasizes the broader message of responsible choices in the world of hip-hop.
