Kodak Black Leaves Fans Floored Following Worrisome Appearance On Kai Cenat’s Livestream

by

Kai Cenat is the midst of Mafiathon 2, which is a month-long streaming event that’s lasting for the entire month of November. He’s going to be live every minute of each day and it’s help him raise money while becoming the most subscribed Twitch streamer. So far, a few celebrities have popped out for this, including Lil Uzi Vert and Miranda Cosgrove. Kodak Black is the latest to show up for Kai Cenat, but things grew more and more concerning throughout the livestream. According to AllHipHop, multiple clips from last night have quickly gone viral of the Florida rapper appearing to be gone for most of his time on-screen.

There’s even a time during the livestream in which Kodak appears to take Percocet. While Kai monitors the chat, his guest looks to toss a white tab into the air and catch it in his mouth. The streamer stopped the music immediately and was left totally speechless. Additionally, there a few instances where Kodak was either twitching, sounding incoherent, or just sort of floating mentally. At one point, fans of Kai tuning in were typing mean things about Kodak and even asking for Uzi to come back instead.

Kodak Black Appears To Be Out Of It While With Kai Cenat

The hitmaker noticed the comments and he was clearly hurt by it. He even asked to leave, and Kai did his best to show that some of his viewers were wanting him to stay. Overall, we feel terrible for the rapper, and we continue to wish him the best following this. Kodak has been vocal about feelings of loneliness and open about his drug addiction this year on multiple occasions.

Nelly Fans Express Concern For Him After Alleged Drowsiness During Concert

by

Nelly recently reunited with St. Lunatics for a performance at the American Music Awards 50th Anniversary Special, but another concert drew discussion for more worrisome reasons. Or at least, that’s what many fans assumed. Basically, fans of the St. Louis artist expressed concern online after clips surfaced from a recent show where folks made note of his drowsy eyes, assuming that he’s either high or has something else going on. However, just as many fans thought that nothing was really out of the ordinary here, so we can chalk this up to fan speculation and reading pretty deeply into a performance.

If you’re curious, check out the comments section of the Instagram post below to see this divisive debate. Elsewhere, though, other Nelly fans focused on this recent St. Lunatics performance, especially given his legal troubles with the group. For those unaware, a lawsuit against him emerged that alleged that he never credited them for their work on the 2000 album Country Grammar. This legal filing came from member Ali Jones, but the rest of the Lunatics (Murphy Lee, Kyjuan, and City Spud) reportedly want their names removed from the lawsuit.

Nelly Fans Are Worried About His Stage Presence: See Comments For Reactions

As such, it looks like there’s still a chance for Nelly and St. Lunatics to reach an amicable agreement, and it looks like there’s not much bad blood to speak on in this case. Except for Ali Jones. He spoke to DJ Vlad last year about his issues, which may explain why he wasn’t present at their recent performance. “A tiger ain’t never gon’ change his stripes,” Jones expressed. “I watched it for 20 years and I’m the butt of the joke because it took me 20 years to realize it.

“I could put a never, ever behind it will I ever hit the stage or do anything with him,” Ali Jones continued. “He has no real raw good intentions for others. Not for us and we’ve all sat together and searched hard to try to find a time that didn’t benefit him. He got $50 million, I’m happy for him. That’s what he wants. He wants a billion.” We’ll see what Nelly says about this lawsuit and about folks questioning his concert behavior.

August Alsina Hints That The Music Industry Will Be Exposed For “Diabolical” Actions Behind The Scenes

by

August Alsina says that the music industry will eventually be exposed for fostering a “diabolical” level of misconduct behind the scenes. He shared his opinion on the industry during a rant on X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday after fans complained about not getting new music from the singer. “I have the biggest bone to pick with him for not doing music anymore. How dare you!” one user wrote, prompting Alsina’s response.

“One day it’ll be revealed the diabolical level of doxxing, railroading, stonewalling, road blocking, gas lighting & betrayal that goes on behind the scenes within this industry,” he wrote. “Abuse of power, all in the name of up-keeping facades, promotion of lies and illusions; While simultaneously hiding of hands to make it look as though you’re fighting an invisible boogey-man. In this industry there is no HR to report this kind of behavior to. BUT GOD has never slept on my prayers or report. http://Give.It.Time! In the other news, I’ve been building business and exploring new territory, successfully:) check it out; http://encinawellness.com.”

In the replies to Alsina’s post, some users brought up the recent arrest of Diddy, who authorities are charging with racketeering and sex trafficking. The Bad Boy mogul has already pleaded not guilty to the crimes and has denied all of the allegations he’s faced over the last year. Additionally, other fans noted Nicki Minaj has made similar complaints about the industry.

August Alsina Explains His Absence From The Music Industry

Check out Alsina’s full post on X below. He released his last studio album, Myself, back in March 2023. It arrived after he had said he’d “likely” be retiring from music in 2021. Be on the lookout for further updates on August Alsina on HotNewHipHop.

Cardi B Reveals Why She Doesn’t Need Security Amid Fan Concerns

by

Recently, one fan spotted Cardi B out and about in New York City by herself. She appeared to be in good spirits, but the clip sparked a great deal of concern from her supporters. She took to X to address the clip of the unexpected sighting, making it clear that it wasn’t a big deal. “It was like 9am and I was hungry …..also nobody finna touch me,” she said.

That did little to ease fans’ concerns, however. They continued to flood her with demands not to go out alone. Again, she clarified that she was fine and that there was no need for fans to worry. “My house got 24/7 security,” she also explained. “I’m very spontaneous and I like my privacy… Sometimes I want to go to the deli or make a quick target run …I’m not waiting around till security come ….ALSO I ALWAYS ALWAYS GOT SOMETHING ON ME!”

Still, the Bardigang was unconvinced, despite her emphasizing the fact that she hates “being babied.” One X user even claimed that one of her posts was a “trauma response,” which she quickly denied. “Wtffff yall be talking about …yall need help,” she responded. “It was 9am and I went to get a bacon egg and cheese …STOP WIT THIS cry baby sh*t ..Y’all too p**** …let me get off this app cause yall irritating me and is not even funny.”

Clearly, Cardi’s got it covered and doesn’t appreciate being treated like she doesn’t. With that being said, it’s no surprise that fans are feeling more protective of their fave than usual, as she’s currently expecting her third child with her ex Offset. She’s been on the hunt for an apartment in NYC lately too, which could explain why she was in town. What do you think of Cardi B telling fans not to worry about her after she was spotted by herself in NYC earlier this week? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Ludacris Updates Fans After Drinking Glacier Water: “I Feel Like Superman”

by

Ludacris concerned fans recently by drinking unfiltered and possibly contaminated glacier water in Alaska, but he said in a new social media video that it’s the best and cleanest water he’s ever drank. “Yo, for everybody asking me how that glacier water really tasted,” he began his remarks. “And when I tell you, I’m a water snob. It was the best-tasting water I’ve ever had in my life. As I drank it, I felt like every cell in my human body was being hydrated and rejuvenated at the same damn time. Had the greatest show in Alaska after that. Just made it to Minneapolis, we got a show tomorrow. Listen, man, I’m here. I feel like Superman. Love to all the fans, glad y’all digging that. It’s different ways of life. I’m just trying to take y’all places, show y’all things, meet people. Come on, man. Love.”

Furthermore, it wasn’t Ludacris’ only ludicrous hot take as of late… At least, in the eyes of many hip-hop fans. “I think Wayne, he’s one of the greatest by the way, I think he’s admitted… He don’t freestyle a lot, so I would just say I would win that,” he said when asked during a Funky Friday with Cam Newton interview about hypothetical freestyle battle match-ups.

Ludacris Praises Glacier Water In New Update

“I’m talking about just straight off the dome is what I’m saying, ‘cause he does it,” Ludacris continued. “But I’m just saying that at one point he even admitted it’s not — he makes songs quick as hell, don’t get me wrong. It’s a sense and a form of freestyling, but it’s just, like, he’s extra with it too. But man, Wayne is one of my favorites. A verse, ah, I would have to say win [against Jay-Z]. I would win on that one. That’s a strong statement to say that ‘cause again, Hov is definitely one of my favorites as well.

“Verses, man, I’m just gon’ go in and metaphor and style, in terms of like flow, I’ma kill that s**t,” Ludacris posited. “It’s not to say that Hov is not gon’ kill that s**t. But I’m, like, when you say s**t like that and it puts me in a category like ‘Oh s**t, I’m going against Hov,’ I got to, like, every f**king word, every line, every style, every flow, every metaphor, I got to go. You got to go back and listen to there was a song with me, Nas and Hov on my album called ‘I Do It for Hip Hop’ [that was] so dope.”

North West Sparks Fan Concern After Hanging Out With Streamer Tylil

by

North West is fresh off yet another feature thanks to VULTURES 2, and wants to hang out with celebrities just as much as her father Ye does. However, this resulted in some controversy when she linked up with popular streamer Tylil for some social media content. Moreover, many fans thought that this was an inappropriate meeting, or were instead concerned with the 11-year-old not hanging out with people that are her age. Still, other social media users pointed out that, not only was La La Anthony there to accompany her, but that North’s security team is probably more than enough to prevent any dangers.

Also, this came as a result of many people not being familiar with Tylil and making unfair assumptions about his character based on this out-of-context situation, which is not what we’re suggesting here. Elsewhere, though, North West also had plenty of fun at Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign’s recent VULTURES listening party, where we’re sure she saw plenty of famous faces. Sadly, this came at a time in which fans were more preoccupied with Ye’s alleged nitrous addiction. Hopefully we get some more heartening updates soon in that regard.

Nevertheless, North West’s admiration of streamers is no shocker, as Kai Cenat attended her birthday party and responded to the resulting backlash. “Here’s the thing, first things first, bro,” he expressed to “everybody who made [the birthday party] weird.” “I am North’s favorite streamer bro, okay? So, yesterday, all she wanted to do was meet me, bro. That was it. Literally. So, anybody who’s making it weird, like, that’s the weirdest thing ever. We had a great time yesterday. She’s great, bro. She has a good group of friends around her, like, everything was great.”

Meanwhile, North West also popped out to witness Kendrick Lamar’s Juneteenth concert and, to no one’s surprise, had a blast. As such, it’s no surprise that she continues to link up with a lot of people and is always excited about doing so. Fans are reasonably skeptical of many of these interactions, but they would much rather be safe than sorry. Let’s just make sure the conversation centers around prevention and not on falsely characterizing folks that find themselves in this situation.

Chloe Bailey Claps Back At Fan Who Claims Her New Album Will Flop

by

Chloe Bailey has had a busy week and it’s only Monday. The singer was blasted by Jon B. for sampling one of his classic 90s songs. Then, she was widely criticized by fans she announced that her new album would be dropping on Friday, August 9. The concern, at least as far as most vocal fans were concerned, was that Bailey will not have enough time to promote the album. Trouble In Paradise still felt like it was in the early promo stages for many. Well, Chloe Bailey took notice of the concerns, and even responded to one fan who asserted that the album is going to be a flop.

The interaction is less negative than it sounds. While most flop predictions stem from a dislike of the artist, there was genuine concern on Chloe Bailey’s part. Fans want to see here succeed. The user in question wrote: “It’s finna flop bc she did this so randomly.” Again, not the most vitriolic thing one can find on Twitter. Chloe Bailey responded accordingly. She quote tweeted the concerned message and claimed that she was okay with possibly flopping. Instead of attacking her fan, she conceded that an unsuccessful album, commercially speaking, could happen. “Oh well,” she wrote. “Good music is good music and I hope you enjoy.”

Chloe Bailey Is More Concerned With Quality Than Sales

It’s a clap back in the technical sense, but it’s also a pretty mature one. Chloe Bailey has made it clear that she’s less concerned with topping sales charts than in making substantial music. She said as much during a recent interview with Nylon. She praised the likes of Beyonce and Whitney Houston for bucking trends and challenging their listeners. The singer wants to challenge preconceived notions of pop music like they did. ” I was really proud of Beyonce doing Cowboy Carter,” she told the outlet. “Because Black people originated country music. It’s just showing that possibilities are endless.”

Trouble In Paradise will be forward-thinking in many ways, but it will also feature a reunion. Chloe Bailey is set to collaborate with her sister, Halle, on the song “Want Me.” Bailey reflected on the writing process of the song during the Nylon profile. “I immediately wrote it down in my notes, and the song wrote itself in, like, five minutes,” she revealed. “It’s weird, because it’s almost like I wrote the song for two without knowing it.” Hopefully the album does better than some fans are anticipating.

Future’s Seemingly Emotional “Wait For You” Performance Has Fans Theorizing He Misses Drake

by

Fans on social media think Future is missing Drake after a clip of him emotionally performing his collaboration with the Toronto rapper, “Wait For You,” has been going viral. It comes after he sided with Kendrick Lamar and Metro Boomin in the feud against Drake, earlier this year. Future initially platformed Lamar’s fiery verse on “Like That.”

When AllHipHop shared the clip on Instagram, fans expressed their disappointment that there aren’t any more collaborations on the horizon. “Every time I hear a Future/Drake song I get sad that we won’t get to see them make hits together again,” one user remarked in the comments. Another added: “When you realize you cut your nose off to spite your face… and maybe it wasn’t so smart.” Others theorized he may have been emotional due to his ex, Ciara, or that he may have just been high.

Drake previously expressed remorse at the souring of his relationship with Future during the lyrics to his track, “Family Matters,” which took aim primarily at Kendrick Lamar. “Pluto sh*t make me sick to my stomach, we ain’t never really been through it/Leland Wayne, he a f*ckin’ lame, so I know he had to be an influence,” he rapped. Check out the recent headline-grabbing performance on Instagram below, as caught by AllHipHop.

Martin Lawrence Gets Supportive Messages From Concerned Fans While Promoting “Bad Boys 4”

by

Fans have been expressing their concern for Martin Lawrence on social media after the actor sat down with Will Smith to discuss Bad Boys: Ride or Die with ExtraTV, last week. They noted he seemed a bit quieter and slower during the interview. It came after his close friend, Sean Lampkin, passed away back in March.

“Martin seems a little slow and off! Like he’s had some kind of medical issue,” one user in the comments section of the video wrote. As caught by The Neighborhood Talk, another added: “Love them both…Martin been through a lot and now hes grieving death of his brother and you can tell Wil got his back…Love both these legends…May GOD bless them both and keep them close.”

One more user wrote: “Martin looks good to almost be 60. He is talking slightly slower but I think that’s only because we’re so used to him being so energetic back in the days and because we watch the reruns of Martin all the time when it comes on. It just sucks to see our favorite comedians get old. I don’t think its the heat stroke from 1999 that really affected him because he was sharp as a tack on his ‘RunTelDat’ special in 2002.”

Fans of Nicki Minaj came out in droves to support the rapper in Manchester outside of her hotel after she was arrested in Amsterdam over the weekend. Earlier in the day, she announced the cancelation of her show at the city’s Co-Op Live due to the airport hold-up. Apologizing to her fans on social media, she revealed the location of where she was staying and asked them to stop by.

“I love you and I’m so sorry this happened tonight,” Minaj said in a video posted on social media.

Minaj made headlines for live streaming the arrest on Instagram, showing officers accusing her of carrying drugs. “They’ve been trying to stop me from coming to every show,” she wrote on X afterward. “They took my bags before I could see them. Put it on the plane. Now saying they’re waiting on customs. This is what it looks like when ppl are paid big money to try to sabotage a tour after all else failed. Everything they’ve done is illegal.” She was eventually released after a several-hour delay that caused her to cancel that night’s concert.
