Pharrell Williams Has The Perfect Response For Drake’s “Meltdown” Diss

November 13, 2024 by newhiphopnews

When you are the GQ Designer of the Year, you deserve to act cool and confident. That’s exactly the type of energy that Pharrell Williams is exuding right now in his feature for the recognition. Overall, you really can’t argue for anyone else given how big of a year he’s having. His impact as Louis Vuitton men’s creative director has been astounding so far and he’s sure to continue growing the department. While congratulations are in order for the Virginia multi-talent, the Piece by Piece creative is sparking some reactions thanks to a quote from the feature. During the Q&A, Pharrell was asked about his Joopiter auction platform and the lavish custom jewelry he sold.

If you remember, Drake got his hands on some of the pieces, leading the interviewer to ask how he felt about that. Pharrell showed class as usual, replying, “No, because I think beyond all of the on-goings, at the heart of all of it, he’s a fan of music. He’s a fan of the history of what it is, and I happen to be a part of that, and those artifacts are a part of it.” Overall, he had no problem with The Boy being the buyer and that response had the GQ writer following up with a heavy-hitting question.

Pharrell Is Unfazed By Drake

“And then when he was rapping about melting the jewelry down and saying, “Come get his legacy out my house” and all that stuff, how did that strike you?” “It didn’t,” Pharrell replied. “That didn’t strike you?” the reporter asked. “No.” If there were a definition of a mic drop, this would be it.

Of course, this is all a reference back to Drake’s fiery bars for Pusha T (and Pharrell to an extent) on Travis Scott’s “MELTDOWN” from UTOPIA. “Man, f*** all that spinnin’ the narrative s*** / I melt down the chains that I bought from yo’ boss / Give a f*** about all of that heritage s*** / Since V not around, the members done hung up the Louis, they not even wearing that s***.” Overall, it seems like Pharrell and Drizzy’s relationship may never be repaired, but it seems like that really isn’t weighing too much on the former one bit.

DeMar DeRozan Issues Unbothered Response To Drake’s Raptors Game Dig

November 3, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Yesterday, Drake threw some serious shade at DeMar DeRozan at the Toronto Raptors’ game against the Sacramento Kings. He came out for Vince Carter’s jersey retirement ceremony, and when asked what he thought about the idea of DeRozan being honored on the team’s broadcast, he shut it down.

“If you ever put a DeRozan banner up, I’ll go up there and pull it down myself,” he remarked. Drake also said it’s “unfortunate we’re playing this goof tonight” in reference to DeRozan, and was spotted staring him down throughout the evening. Fortunately, it doesn’t look like DeRozan was too bothered by all of this. After the game, he brushed off Drake’s banner comment when asked about it. “He’s going to have a long way to climb to take it down, so tell him good luck,” he said.

It remains unconfirmed exactly what prompted Drake to start taking swipes at DeRozan. Social media users, however, have some theories. DeRozan, for one, appeared at Kendrick Lamar’s “Pop Out” show and in his “Not Like Us” music video. It’s possible that Drizzy saw this as a breach of loyalty, even though DeRozan previously claimed he still considers the rapper a friend.

“Drake’s still my man, still my man, none of it changed,” DeRozan told The Sacramento Bee in July. “It’s so easy to get overlooked and look at it for what it looks like, but at the end of the day it’s music, entertainment. Two of the biggest rappers in the world went at it from a competitive standpoint and they battled it out. That’s what you want to see as a fan: Kobe (Bryant) playing (Michael) Jordan 1-on-1 and see who wins, see the trash talking, and whoever wins out of that, you’re still going to have the debate, so that’s all that is.” What do you think of DeMar DeRozan’s response to Drake dissing him at the Raptors game yesterday?

Ola Runt Responds To Playboi Carti’s 2020 Diss Song After Prison Release

October 29, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Ola Runt and Playboi Carti do not get along. The two rappers have been going at one another for years. Playboi Carti went as far as to aim a diss track at Ola Runt on his 2020 album, Whole Lotta Red. The diss was titled “Stop Breathing,” but Runt was already behind bars by the time it dropped. Well, Runt was let out at the end of August, and he’s eager to pick the beef back up. He hopped on Instagram and made it very clear that he has a response track ready to go. He previewed the song in a car, and leveled some aggressive threats at Playboi Carti.

Ola Runt’s diss is reportedly titled “All Dead.” The title seems to be riffing on Playboi Carti’s most recent single, “All Red.” Runt calls out the enigmatic Playboi Carti for failing to get his music played in his native Atlanta. “Whole Lotta Red,” Ola Runt raps. “How you say that’s music but the A don’t play it.” The rapper then goes after Carti’s masculinity. “P**sy n**ga you wearin’ thongs, I bet you shave your legs,” he adds. Ola Runt took things a step further by tagging Playboi Carti on Instagram. He also targeted Carti’s crew, Homixide Gang.

Ola Runt Claims Carti’s Music Doesn’t Get ATL Play

It was only a matter of time before Ola Runt responded to “Stop Breathing.” Playboi Carti’s 2020 song was a scathing diss that went after Runt’s Henchmen crew. Bars like “I got n**gas in chain gang on my side” and “I had the n**gas shank Ola for a pie” made it clear Carti wasn’t playing around. The conflict between these two men stem from the death of Carti’s friend Bigg Sosa. It’s widely believed that Runt’s crew was responsible for Sosa’s death in 2023. “Ever since my brother died (Died, what? What? Yeah),” Carti added on the song. “I’ve been thinkin’ ’bout homicide.”

DaBaby Is “Manifesting” A Megan Thee Stallion Collab Despite Previously Alleging They Slept Together

October 24, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It’s no secret that Megan Thee Stallion and DaBaby have made some great music together. Unfortunately, however, it’s unclear whether or not they ever will again. Back in 2022, he unveiled his album Baby On Baby 2, and threw some serious shade on “BOOGEYMAN.” Essentially, he alleged that he slept with Meg right before she was shot by Tory Lanez.

“The day before she said that Tory Lanez shot her, I was f*ckin’ on Megan Thee Stallion,” he raps. “Waited to say that sh*t on my next album/ Hit it the day before too.” He was also previously called out by Meg for retweeting a joke about the shooting. Now, DaBaby seems interested in teaming up with her again despite this, as he thinks that none of her other collaborations live up to what they’ve created in the past.

DaBaby Wants To Team Up With Megan Thee Stallion & GloRilla

“I got love for Meg,” he explained during his recent appearance on Drink Champs. “Me and Meg did some dope sh*t together. And it’s good to see her rise amongst the obstacles. I’m manifesting a song with Glo and Meg together and Baby. I think that’s the way me and Meg should pop back out. Because I feel like ain’t none of these n****s — and no disrespect — that y’all are making music with can really embody that.” DaBaby went on to add that he has nothing bad to say about Meg or any other Black women in the industry.

“Come home, baby,” he said. “You ain’t gotta be making all that l*me sh*t with none of these other n****s. We can come get it in. Or, you know, we can not… Shout out to Meg and any other female out here doing their thing. I don’t got nothing bad to say about no Black woman doing their muthaf*ckin thing man. I ain’t tripping, it’s hard enough out here.” What do you think of DaBaby claiming that he wants to collaborate with Megan Thee Stallion again despite previously trying to embarrass her? Do you think she should consider it or not? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

DJ Akademiks Slammed By His Own Followers For Constantly Sneak Dissing Kendrick Lamar

October 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

DJ Akademiks is coming under fire in the comments section of one of his latest posts on Instagram for using every opportunity to dunk on Kendrick Lamar that he can. Ak had shared a clip of Daylyt saying that many people on the West Coast used to hate on Lamar’s style of music.

“You know what I really hated about Kendrick Lamar’s Pop Out show? It was a lot of n****s saying, ‘that rap sh*t isn’t gonna work.’ And these n****s was front row,” Daylyt said in the video. “I’m from the West Coast so I’m gonna go ahead and say it. All those n****s used to sh*t on Kendrick. A lot of n****s in the West used to sh*t on Kendrick. I remember.” From there, he recalled everyone else being on “goofy time,” but Lamar sticking to pure hip-hop, which he says angered a lot of people.

In the comments, fans complained about Ak’s constant support of Drake. “Ak is on a historic glazing run. One for the record books,” one user wrote. Another added: “A Kendrick smear campaign months after the beef is a different level of bothered on behalf of Drake. Insane.” One more fan commented: “AK you literally Celebrated the end of Kendrick 15 minutes before he dropped not like us and you conceded … at this point it’s like your living out resentment instead of reality.”

Tyler, The Creator Cooks Elon Musk By Changing Concert Lyrics: Watch

October 8, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Tyler, The Creator says and does what he wants. He has undergone several phases, in terms of his subject matter and musicality, but the one constant is his irreverent sense of humor. If Tyler, The Creator has a problem with somebody, they are going to know it. Case in point, the rapper’s recent performance at ACL Fest. He performed a version of his classic 2017 song “911/Mr. Lonely,” but instead of referencing Elon Musk in a positive light, as he did on the recording, he flipped the lyrics to diss Musk.

Musk has become persona non grata in popular culture. He’s become one of the most memed and mocked celebrities in the world, and Tyler, The Creator has taken note. The original lyrics on “911/Mr. Lonely” are seemingly indifferent to Musk. The rapper works the Tesla founder into his verse because it worked with the rhyme scheme and the bar about not requiring gas. “Can’t see straight, these shades are Céline Dion,” he raps. “Sucks you can’t gas me up, shout out to Elon… Musk, yeah I got a sold out show. Crowd wild out but don’t matter ’cause you not front row.” Tyler didn’t want it to sound like he shouted out the controversial X (formerly Twitter) owner, though, and made an aggressive change.

Tyler, The Creator Used To Be A Huge Musk Fan

“Man f*ck Elon,” Tyler, The Creator rapped to an ecstatic crowd. The rapper change of heart is not uncommon. Musk used to be a semi-popular figure to praise/reference. In 2016, Tyler even heaped praise on Musk for providing an electric alternative to gas powered vehicles. Ironically, the praise was through the app that Musk would eventually purchase, Twitter. “@elonmusk I LOVE YOU THANK YOU FOR CHANGING THE WORLD,” he wrote. “AND MAKING THE EVIL OIL MEN WHO RUN THE WORLD HATE YOU.” Tyler truly adored Musk during the mid-2010s, and would even have exchanges with the inventor on the platform.

Tyler also praised Musk during a 2015 appearance on Hot 97. The rapper was there to promote his album, Cherry Bomb, but he went off book and decided to shine a light on Musk’s achievements. He even compared the Tesla founder to rap moguls like JAY-Z, Master P and Diddy. The last one has not aged well, from any conceivable angle, but it’s hard to hold Tyler, The Creator accountable for that. He could not have known how the last decade was going to play out. A lot of people have seemingly fallen out of love with Musk, and Tyler is at the top of the list.

Proof’s Son, Nasaan, Admits He’s Jealous Of Cordae’s Relationship With Eminem

October 6, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Proof’s son, Nasaan, has apologized for dissing Cordae over the years, admitting in a rant on X (formerly Twitter) that he’s been jealous of his relationship with Eminem. He previously called out the From a Bird’s Eye View rapper on his 2020 song, “Without Me.” He rapped at the time: “My shape isn’t in tip top? Then who saving hip hop? (YBN Cordae?)/B*tch you sound stupid as f*ck’ as a diss towards Cordae.”

In his social media rant, he wrote: “I apologize to the Cordae fellow. I’m growing & realize I started trolling you out of envy. Was gonna put all this in a song but rhyming sh*t with yo name is difficult n***a. He was getting the love from Marshall that I had always wanted but… unfortunately just never got. I felt like I was a way more talented rapper sitting in front of his face yet he chose him to champion. (granted I was 19) but I never quite understood it. I’m older & more mature now so I internalize all this a lot differently now… since a teenager I kind of just wanted to make Em & his team proud & build this uncle like bond with them where I can, come around, ask for advice wherever need be, etc and it just never got to that point and in retrospect I guess that frustrated me and made me jealous.”

From there, Nasaan explained why he’s decided to apologize to Cordae now. He wrote: “Lol tbh i feel like I owe dude an apology I trolled the sh*t out of him 3 years straight haha, and as far as Marshall I just don’t feel comfortable lying in interviews anymore its bothering me atp. yes there is no relationship. i have none with him. but who cares he doesn’t owe me that, he was my fathers friend not MINE. he took care of my family financially for years!!! off GP. he’s great in my book! I’m 26 now. I accepted Ill never get the relationship i wanted with him… the distant love we have for one another is more than enough for me thank you for everything Marshall and sorry again Cordae. love you guys.”

Nasaan Speaks Out

Check out Nasaan’s full rant on X below. His father, Proof, grew up with Eminem in Detroit and was also a member of D12. He was shot and killed in 2006 at the age of 32. Be on the lookout for further updates on Nasaan as well as Cordae on HotNewHipHop.

unfortunately just never got. i felt like i was a way more talented rapper sitting in front of his face yet he chose him to champion. (granted i was 19) but i never quite understood it. i’m older & more mature now so i internalize all this a lot differently now…

Drake-Inspired Pictures Dropped From Fashion Nova’s Viral BBL Drizzy Halloween Costume

October 5, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Fashion Nova has taken down the viral images marketing their “BBL Booty Butt Pad” Halloween costume accessory. The company originally had been using a Drake-lookalike wearing his iconic colorful hair clips to show off the item, seemingly referencing Metro Boomin’s “BBL Drizzy.”

Fans on social media initially had mixed reactions to Fashion Nova’s costume. “Just trying to prove it’s a 20v1/ witch-hunt on one person. Marking yourselves look like clowns,” one fan of Drake wrote on X (formerly Twitter). Another defended the jokes, writing: “Drake and his fans acting like his victim for stuff like this when he’s brought it upon him with those corny and uncalled disses towards Megan, Riri and Serena which they either labeled it as ‘petty’ or turned a blind eye is the funniest shi they ever pulled.”

Metro and Drake spent several months dissing one another, earlier this year, following the release of “Like That.” More recently, Metro claimed that he doesn’t have any serious issues with Drake during an appearance at the Forbes 30 Under 30 Summit. “I feel like the competition is great for the game,” Metro said. “Hip-hop has always been more of a competitive genre, even if just keeping it on music. And it’s not serious how everybody tries to make it. Because also with hip-hop, there’s a lot of ego involved. You’re supposed to feel like you’re the best. Everybody from the highest to the lowest guy, you’re supposed to at least feel like you’re the best.”

October 5, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Earlier this week, DDG took to social media to announce that he and Halle Bailey have gone their separate ways. In a heartfelt statement, he explained that while their romantic relationship didn’t work out, they’re still “best friends.” The announcement came just months after they welcomed their first child together, a baby boy named Halo.

“We believe it’s the best path forward for both of us,” he said. “I cherish the time we’ve spent together and the love we’ve shared.” Bailey has yet to comment on the split, but the same can’t be said for social media users. Fans have been flooding Twitter/X with their reactions to the news since it was first shared Thursday (October 3).

Many supporters had big reactions, both positive and negative, to the breakup. Joe Budden, on the other hand, took a different approach to his response. While sharing his take on the split during an episode of his podcast, he decided to focus most of his attention on DDG himself. He claimed that he wasn’t familiar with DDG outside of his relationship with Bailey. “Who the f*ck is DDG and why am I supposed to care about his thoughts on anything?” he asked.

DDG wasted no time before responding and didn’t hold back in the slightest. “Pump it up went gold after 20 years u old b*tch @JoeBudden i’m on u,” he Tweeted today. “N***a got 30 years MAX of life left & speakin on a relationship of people the same age as yo son you’n take care of. I hope u forget to take your magnesium pills today u old b*tch @JoeBudden.” What do you think of DDG firing back at Joe Budden after he weighed in on his split from Halle Bailey?

Rich Homie Quan Posthumously Disses Gunna On New Song “One Of Quan”

October 5, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Rich Homie Quan and Young Thug made magic together on wax. The duo, under the moniker Rich Gang, dropped the classic single “Lifestyle” in 2014. Tensions got in the way, leading to some distance over the years, but the two artists always had respect for each other. It’s tragic, then to see what was happened to both men. Rich Homie Quan has passed, and Thug is currently being tried on a RICO charge. They’ll never get to the chance to reconcile on record, and resurrect Rich Gang (or a version of it). That said, it was obvious that Quan still felt the need to take Thug’s side when it came to Gunna.

Gunna’s actions during the YSL trial has led many rappers to look at him sideways. Many believe he took a plea deal and effectively left his label boss holding the bag. This has opened him up to several disses. Young Thug’s kids went after him on social media. Kendrick Lamar used him as a negative example on the song “Euphoria.” And Rich Homie Quan, who recently put out the posthumous album, Forever Goin’ In. has gotten in to the trend. The rapper really went after Gunna on the song “One of Quan,” right down to riffing on the title of the recent Gunna album, One of Wun.

Rich Homie Quan Accused Gunna Of Biting His Style

The song sees Rich Homie Quan address the allegation that he stole Gunna’s flow and used it on several of his albums. His rebuttal? Fans had it twisted. As far as he was concerned, Gunna bite from him. “They probably gon think I took over Gunna flow, but this my cadence and I made it,” he angrily raps. “N**gas was stealing the swag I was just sitting back and I wouldn’t even say sh*t.” Not only does he claim that the YSL stalwart jacked his style, but he claims he wasn’t even bothered enough to call him out. You’d think a diss like this would garner more attention, but it’s only because another rapper dissed Gunna on the same exact night.

The day that Rich Homie Quan’s posthumous album dropped, Ferg dropped the single “Allure.” The song featured a guest verse from Future, another longtime friend of Young Thug. His Gunna disses were even more savage than Quan’s. Future Hendrix implied that a premature death is awaiting Gunna because of what he did to Young Thug, and he doesn’t even dress the sentiment up with euphemisms. He just flat out says it. “You done took a plea on my slime,” Future spits. “Won’t be surprised if you ended up dead.” Gunna is getting it from every direction these days. No wonder he’s in the gym so often.
