Kanye West Confronts Screaming Paparazzi Overseas In Funny Video

February 29, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Being a celebrity has never been easy, but thanks to modern technology, it’s more stressful than ever for famous people attempting to live “normal” lives. Posting on social media in real-time can lead to run-ins with stalkers, and if they choose to stay off the grid, “citizen journalists” can still expose their whereabouts in a matter of seconds. Now that his first Vultures LP is here, Kanye West is spending plenty of time outside again, recently exploring Europe in interesting fashions with his wife, Bianca Censori.

Whenever Ye leaves his hotel – or anywhere else for that matter – a group of photographers seems to always be waiting for him. Most of them usually want to capture snapshots of the father of four’s eccentric looks, though some overzealous and curious others have endured physical altercations with West. Earlier this week he was forced to confront those “stalking” him overseas, though he managed to do it in a relatively calm manner.

As they repeatedly yell out his name, Yeezy and his security team ensure Censori safely makes it into their vehicle. “When you photograph, just stop screaming at me,” the “4th Dimension” artist said from behind a full facial covering. “I don’t want to get screamed at every time I go to the car,” he continued as everyone around him assured Mr. West he was understood. Nevertheless, they continued to shout, telling the Chicago native that they were simply trying to support him by taking his picture. “If you wanna support me, then listen, don’t scream at me,” Ye pleaded, the frustration evident in his voice.

After several decades of working in the music industry, Kanye West is now more comfortable than ever setting boundaries with fans and paparazzi. We’ve seen him get physical with some photographers in the past, but thankfully, he seems to be getting better at communicating through words rather than actions. During a recent run-in with some supporters overseas, Yeezy was happy to sign autographs for them. However, he refused to use a young woman’s bunny-shaped pen, generating plenty of laughs from the small group.

Charlamagne Tha God Recalls Drake Pressing Him Over Criticism

November 19, 2023 by newhiphopnews

During a recent appearance on the Rap Radar podcast, Charlamagne Tha God opened up about his past criticism of Drake. He was asked whether or not his comments on the Toronto native’s music were genuine, or just for show. According to him, they were very real, and he also says they prompted some serious beef between the two of them.

“Everything I said about the music, early on, was true,” he explained. “I always felt like that about the music. I’m like yo, why try to be the next Chris Brown or Miguel when you could be the next JAY-Z? I always felt like he was that good of a rapper.” Eventually, he said that his comments resulted in Drake sending his people out to look for him. “I mean, he didn’t find it funny,” he revealed. “There’s plenty of times people come back and be like, ‘Yeah, Drake and his team was just here looking for you.’”

Charlamagne Tha God Reflects On Early Drake Criticism

He recalled one instance when his Breakfast Club co-hosts were at an event in Houston that he didn’t attend, and Drake approached them asking about him. “[Drake] and his guys were damn sure like, ‘Where’s the third Musketeer at?’” he explained. Charlamagne went on to recall a time when he says some of Drake’s former bodyguards let him in on how the artist wanted him to be handled.

“I met these security guards one time,” he began. “This was at an iHeart music festival in Vegas — and these muthaf*ckas looked like killers. They were big super-goons. They were with G-Eazy at the time. And they was like, ‘Yo man, you know how many times we was told, if we see you, [to fight you] on sight? Don’t even ask no questions, just handle it?’” He also claimed that at the time, he was shocked by the revelation. What do you think of Charlamagne Tha God’s story about Drake?

Suge Knight To Address Alleged Diddy Confrontation

November 18, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Suge Knight has announced that he will address the allegations surrounding long-time rival Diddy on an upcoming episode of his podcast. According to sources involved in the production of Collect Call, Suge will speak on Diddy immediately after his Thanksgiving episode. Specifically, Suge will give his version of events on Cassie’s claim that Diddy once loaded up a large amount of firearms to confront Suge. It reportedly happened after the Death Row boss had been spotted dining in LA. According to Cassie, Diddy jumped out of bed, got dressed, and retrieved multiple firearms from a safe before “running out” to confront Suge. However, it appears that the confrontation never actually went down.

However, Suge’s timing was later dealt a blow. On Friday, it was reported that Cassie and Diddy had “amicably settled” the former’s $50 million lawsuit. Cassie had made explosive claims earlier this week. The singer alleged that while with Diddy, she had suffered years of beatings and sexual assault at the hands of the Bad Boy Records boss. However, Diddy’s legal team had initially dismissed the suit as nothing more than a “shakedown”.

Suge To Speak On Keefe D Arrest

Despite the settlement, fans will still likely tune in to hear Suge’s side of the Diddy incident. However, the mogul’s aforementioned Thanksgiving episode may prove to be equally explosive. For the first time, Suge plans to speak on the arrest of Duane “Keefe D” Davis, the former gang member who is currently on trial for the murder of 2Pac. Of course, Suge was sitting next to Pac when the rapper was fatally shot in a Vegas drive-by in 1997.

Suge has been revealing a lot of previously unknown knowledge on his podcast. Much of it relates to the work he did to aid Death Row rappers. However some of Suge’s stories been incredibly surprising. Earlier this month, Suge alleged that Deion Sanders had once been a secret member of Death Row. “I spent over half a million dollars of my own money. I put guys in the studio, I paid Dallas Austin, I did all these songs — did everything. Then one day he came to me and said, ‘Well, y’know, Prime deal with Nike and Death Row is a Black-owned company, and we don’t really want to deal with a Black-owned company,” Suge told The Daily Cannon.

Cesar Pina “Almost Got Himself” In A Lot Of Trouble, Joe Budden Explains Scuffle

November 4, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Joe Budden recently faced some smoke in real life when Cesar Pina’s brother pulled up on him. For those unaware, Pina is DJ Envy’s business associate, and they both faced a lot of accusations of fraud and shady business deals recently. In fact, it even resulted in The Breakfast Club host’s former (but allegedly current) partner getting arrested. Of course, the Slaughterhouse MC commented on this situation and wasn’t too forgiving to either man. Regardless, he kept his composure when Pina’s brother confronted him, and on his podcast, he went into more detail about what happened. “Wednesday, this n***a rolled over in the spot [a bar],” the rapper began. “Totally empty, completely empty. Tuesday and Wednesday be slow. So it was completely empty in there, me and Big Mo, shout out to Mo. Me and Big Mo roll up in there and sit at the bar.

“Actually, the bar’s crowded,” Joe Budden continued. “So now I sit all the way by the bathroom. For the viewing audience at home, that’s the corner, that’s the cut away from things. You can’t be seen and all of this, yada yada yada. So me and Mo sit there, we chillin’. [I get a drink from someone unknown], the waitress says, ‘Flipping New Jersey.’ Now, I say, I only know one Flipping New Jersey. ‘Oh, s**t, maybe Cease is up in here.’ So I get up, I go outside to this little smoke section, where I could see a little.I don’t see nobody, right? So then she gives a description. ‘Nah, it’s n***a with a skully and glasses. He’s not white, but he’s not black, he’s something.’

“It’s not Cesar ‘Flipping New Jersey,’” Joe Budden continued. “So to me now, this is just a weirdo fan being funny, cool. Or maybe somebody who really likes Mo. [Cesar’s brother] sent me the drink, and he keeps getting up and going over, and he’s got some people with him. ‘Just be careful.‘ And I said, ‘Thank you, man. I appreciate that.’ Then his friend gets up, he’s walking, he positions himself at the corner of the bar. What I’m telling you is it was a lot of wocky, goofy s**t going on in there. But now the Lakers were getting smacked, I’m glued to this s**t. As soon as they go into overtime, motherf***ers in the spot hit all the lights, click-click, cut the TVs off, bong! ‘Everybody out!’ You motherf***er, you gotta be kidding me. But that’s cool. Everybody out, it ain’t but five people in there.

“See, that’s the other thing; these clips say somebody pulled up on me,” he concluded. “No, these goofy n***as was just in there. Ain’t nobody pulled up, they was there. All the news is ‘Yo, man, you smoking.’ And ‘Who’s that girl?’ F**k my safety. But anyway, I light the cig, these n***as come out and they just standing there looking like they’re waiting for the Uber. Non-threatening-looking n***as. I still don’t know who this dude is. He pulls his phone out, and that’s what you hear. ‘Budden! Budden!’ I’m like, ‘Please don’t tape me.’ I walk inside, when I walk out, and I have a few words with him. He almost got himself in a real pickle.” For more news and the latest updates on Joe Budden, stay logged into HNHH.

Warren G Recalls Running From Suge Knight On “Drink Champs”

August 26, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Warren G recently appeared on an episode of the Drink Champs podcast, sharing some notable stories from throughout his career. He talked saving Def Jam, working alongside Snoop and Nate Dogg, and more. The West Coast legend even opened up about an incident with Suge Knight, telling a tale about how a studio session once nearly ended in gunfire.

The artist begins his story by noting how he had previously thought Knight was “a cool n***a.” He describes going into the studio one day, “thinking the sh*t is all good.” From there, he says that people kept telling him that Knight had to talk to him, which he was brushing off to catch up with his friends. Eventually, Suge himself came out to let him know that the situation couldn’t wait. He recalls being pulled into a room with him, and things quickly took a left turn. Unfortunately, someone he had thought he was on good terms with wanted to confront him about some rumors he had heard.

Warren G’s Conversation On Drink Champs

He says he was confused about the confrontation, since he had been friends with the guy for a while. Warren G then recalls his chain being “snatched” from his neck, and notes that he had a gun on him at the time. “I could have pulled that motherf*cker out and started bussin,’” he explains. Ultimately, he decided not to. He says he knew there was “no winning situation,” if he had, as there were countless people on his escape route that would have shot him, too. Warren G then says a friend of his walked in at that point, and he took the opportunity to “ease out that motherf*cker.”

Warren G then claims that as he made his way away from the room, Suge Knight came after him. “Get that n***a!” he recalls him shouting to those around. He says after he heard that, he “took off” running. Luckily, he was able to get away in time and drive off in his truck. He claims that Snoop Dogg had told him to come and get his chain back eventually, but he refused. Keep an eye on HNHH for more updates on Warren G.
