Megan Thee Stallion Reveals Exciting Details About Collab With BTS’ RM

by

Earlier this month, Megan Thee Stallion and BTS fans alike were in a frenzy after the femcee took to X with a cryptic message. “🐎X💜 👀,” she wrote simply, leaving her followers to speculate. Many were quick to guess that the hitmaker was teasing an upcoming collaboration with BTS, which they finally confirmed last week.

“🐎X🦔(🐨),” the band’s account wrote, retweeting Meg’s message, “Coming Soon! 💜👀.” For obvious reasons, fans can’t wait. This will be the second time the Houston-born performer teams up with the group. Back in 2021, she hopped on a remix of their hit song “Butter,” which she admits was a dream come true.

“I love BTS, and I was telling my manager, ‘I really want to do a song with BTS, I don’t know what I can do or what we’re going to do,’” she told Entertainment Tonight at the time. “Around that the same time, they wound up reaching out to me and asking me to do the ‘Butter’ remix. So, I was like, ‘Oh my God.’” Now, Meg has taken to Instagram to share some exciting new details about the upcoming track, which features RM.

According to her, it’s called “Neva Play” and will be released this Friday (September 6). She also unveiled the comic book-inspired artwork for the single, which features both artists. “Ps. This is one of my favorite RM verses I’ve heard! I’ve never heard him rap in this style before,” she captioned the post. Of course, fans can’t wait to hear what they’ve come up with.

Nicki Minaj Unveils The Release Date & Artwork For Upcoming “Gag City Reloaded” Deluxe

by

About seven days ago, Nicki Minaj decided to drop a bombshell on X. “PF2 #GagCityReloaded – the album”. That simple announcement was enough to rile up the entire legion of Barbz, as this sort of came out of nowhere. Apparently, her revealing the Gag City Reloaded tour was step one of the plans because now we are getting new music to accompany this new leg of her massive Pink Friday 2 trek. Then, phase three would occur in the evening of the aforementioned tweet. Nicki Minaj hopped on a 45-minute Instagram Live to talk about this new deluxe edition, and tease some collaborations in the process.

However, at the time, she was not able to give any sort of concrete details about this third bonus version. “I will be doing a deluxe version of Pink Friday 2. It will be called Pink Friday 2 Gag City Reloaded. It’s going to be out soon. Do I have the exact dates for you? No. Is it coming out this week? No. But it’s coming”. Then, yesterday, part four of the rollout would see Nicki Minaj hype up a track that she claims will be the Barbz “favorite song on the deluxe”.

There’s a chance it could be a finished version of “Anxiety”, a song teased in the IG Live. Now, we are in the middle of step five, which includes perhaps the most important information yet. Nicki Minaj has just recently revealed the release date and the Gag City Reloaded artwork on IG. She captions the massive Kenneth Petty photo dump with, “9.13.24 #GagCityRELOADED THE DELUXE ALBUM 💿”. On the 15th slide, you can see the cover, which features the biggest anklet you will ever see which spells out the name of this extra version.

What are your thoughts on Nicki Minaj dropping the Gag City Reloaded deluxe version of Pink Friday 2 on September 13? Are there any tracks you want to see her include? How many do you think she will add to this edition? Is three extra ways to listen to PF2 too much, why or why not? 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 Nicki Minaj. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the music world.

Cardi B Teases Huge Update On New Album And Fans Think It’s Coming Soon

by

Cardi B’s next album is one of the most anticipated and long-awaited releases in mainstream hip-hop… And we’re well aware that this headline sounds familiar. Nevertheless, she recently gave fans a huge update as to the progress of this release, indicating that she already took her album cover pictures and can’t decide on which one to use. This is one of the most concrete actualizations we’ve received of this sophomore LP as of late, and one of the only ones that doesn’t relate to its release date. While fans are still foaming at the mouth for a final word on that, this should still fuel a lot of excitement for die-hard supporters.

Unfortunately, these days have been unpredictably tough for Cardi B, as she recently spoke on a “freak accident” that almost jeopardized her pregnancy. “I was doing so good, like, so good,” she told her social media followers concerning her pelvic injury. “Exercising, f***ing outfits put together, I had so much energy. Now I be in pain like a motherf***er. I can’t f***ing wear heels, I can’t f***ing stand up, I can’t do s**t. Everything was going great, now a h*e is injured. S**t got me so f***ing tight. And the thing about it is, I’m not even a clumsy b***h. I’m not a clumsy person, and I bust my a** bro.

Elsewhere, Cardi B also spoke on this being her “easiest pregnancy yet” despite sleepless nights and her baby kicking a whole lot. “If anybody knows where I could get a pregnancy waist trainer, a pregnancy faja, let me know,” she asked her Instagram Live viewers. “I need it right now ’cause this a** is not dropping. I swear to f***ing God, this a** is not dropping. It’s not really because of my stomach, of course, I just don’t want my a** to drop.”

Meanwhile, another update that Cardi B teased at concerning her new album involved possible album titles. It’s clear that she’s teasing a lot of stuff out little by little, and at least giving fans the illusion of being a part of that process. We’ll see how this all manifests, as the Bardi Gang hopes that it’ll arrive sooner rather than later.

Megan Thee Stallion’s Cover Art For New Album Roasted By Fans

by

Megan Thee Stallion has been receiving mixed reviews on the cover art choice for her new album, Megan, on social media. She announced the project officially on Sunday night after months of teasing plans for it. In a post on social media, she wrote: “SURPRISE HOTTIESSSS!!!! My New Album ‘MEGAN’ will be coming out JUNE 28 PRE-SAVE NOW!”

In the replies to the post on X (formerly Twitter), fans were excited, but dismayed by the cover art. It shows Megan breaking out of a cocoon with an “M” superimposed in the background. “We will be buying and streaming but the album cover….. is kinda confusing it looks like ur inside a testicle,” one fan admitted. Another described Megan as a “genuinely charming, extraordinarily talented artist who makes some of the most baffling creative choices I have ever witnessed.” One more wrote: “Whoever made this cover should be blacklisted from the graphic design community for life.”

Megan first announced the new album while performing in Atlanta on her Hot Girl Summer tour on Sunday night. It’ll be dropping later this month on June 28. She discussed what fans can expect from the project during an interview with L’OFFICIEL, last week. “I don’t want to say I’m tapping into other genres. I’m just tapping into other sounds. But it’s still very much Megan Thee Stallion. It won’t feel like I went so left. It’ll feel true to me,” she told the outlet. “You’ll almost be like, ‘I wouldn’t have thought she would’ve rapped over that, but this sounds great.’”

DJ Akademiks Divulges On Kendrick Lamar’s “Meet The Grahams” Drake Diss’ Cover Art

by

Kendrick Lamar and Drake are both suffering from the fallout of their respective diss tracks against each other, and so is the rest of hip-hop culture. Like with all of these disses so far, fans and media outlets are picking apart every little detail, updating the scoreboard on how they’ve lyrically dismantled one another. But it’s clear that this beef is, unfortunately, not about bars anymore. Moreover, DJ Akademiks recently claimed some curious information about Kendrick’s “Meet The Grahams” cover art. It features multiple items including jewelry receipts, a Maybach glove, and Ozempic as shots intended at his Toronto rival.

“Akademiks got intel from Kendrick’s camp that the details of the cover of ‘Meet the Grahams’ containing a glove, ozempic, receipts etc was stolen from a suitcase that belonged to Dennis Graham, Drake’s father,” DJ Akademiks wrote in a TikTok post late Friday night (May 3). “This cover art contains things that is from Drake’s pops’ suitcase, so Drake’s pops’ suitcase had these things in it,” he said on stream. “Don’t know how he got a hold of it, don’t know how this happened to get in Kendrick’s hand. But apparently Kendrick Lamar must’ve got a hold of Drake’s dad’s suitcase. So we’re talking about Dennis Graham, which is Drake’s pops… remember all that talk about leaks in the camp?”

DJ Akademiks Speaks On The Alleged Context Behind Kendrick Lamar’s “Meet The Grahams” Cover Art

However, most of the explosive nature behind Kendrick Lamar and Drake’s shots at each other muffled with the impact of their opponents’ jabs. The 6ix God accused K.Dot of abusing his wife, cheating on her more than he’s admitted, and of being a “father” to a child who is actually Dave Free’s, his manager. None of these claims saw any sort of evidence emerge since the disses dropped, or they are allegations that Kendrick addressed in the past. But regardless, it’s not a pretty look.

As for Drake, the ugliness allegedly emerges in Kendrick Lamar’s claims that him and OVO traffic women and that Drizzy himself is a predator and assaulter. Not only that, but he also claims that Aubrey is hiding and neglecting an 11-year-old daughter, claims that he’s denied. The explanations necessary to hold these allegations accountable won’t appear in this cover art. Yet we’d bet that this beef will yield a lot of layers over time, so nothing’s off the table.

Ty Dolla Sign Clarifies “Vultures 2” Album Cover

by

Ty Dolla $ign has revealed that he is the individual who appears on the cover of Vultures 2. A masked Ty stands against the same background used for the cover of Vultures 1. Furthermore, Ty is seen holding a picture of his incarcerated brother.

Kanye West posted the cover earlier this weekend. However, fans were not overly receptive to an album cover with no album to listen to. “Vultures 2 or GTA 6 dropping first?” asked one fan, referencing the equally tortured development of Rockstar’s open-world game. For context, GTA 6 is scheduled to drop in 2025. “Blud hasn’t mixed/mastered a single track from Vultures 2 yet,” theorized another fan. Despite this, some fans were excited and pointed to next week’s Rolling Loud California, despite West and Ty Dolla $ign not being listed as performers at the event. When do you think Vultures 2 will finally drop? Let us know in the comments.

Kanye West’s “Carnival” Gets Intense Cover Art

Furthermore, Kanye has gone pretty hard with the cover art for the long-awaited Vultures project. Last month, West unveiled the intense cover art for “Carnival”, one of the standout tracks from Vultures 1. Designed by noted Canadian artist Jon Rafman, the cover art for “Carnival” depicts a close-up of a screaming and bloodied skinhead. Rafman also created the AI-generated music video for “Vultures (Havoc Version)” which was released alongside the album.

“Carnival” features Playboi Carti and Rich the Kid. As mentioned, it is widely considered one of the best tracks on Vultures 1. Many people have already called it the best song of 2024. However, the song proved controversial even before it was released. A version heard at a listening party in Chicago earned the ire of Ozzy Osbourne due to an uncleared sample of Black Sabbath. A later version at a Long Island listening party used a sample of Kanye’s “Hell of a life”, which interpolates the same Black Sabbath song.

Another week, another missed album deadline by Kanye West. Fans voiced their displeasure as West posted the cover art for Vultures 2 on the same day that the album was meant to drop. The cover of Vultures 2 shows a masked West holding a framed picture of a person some fans claim is Virgil Abloh and others claim is Ty Dolla $ign’s incarcerated brother.

However, as mentioned, fans were unhappy to be getting the album cover, but no album. “Vultures 2 or GTA 6 dropping first?” asked one fan, referencing the equally tortured development of Rockstar’s open-world game.
