Lil Wayne’s Son Goes Viral For Being His Clone

October 12, 2023 by newhiphopnews

A clip of Lil Wayne’s son Neal is blowing up, and users are shocked by how much they look alike. In the clip, the 13-year-old and friends are seen lip-synching a Tyler, the Creator song and showing off their fits. As Neal removes his hood and approaches the camera to flex his jewelry, it becomes undeniable how much he’s the spitting image of his dad, dreads and all.

Neal is the rapper’s youngest out of four children. Though some fans can’t get past how much he looks like his dad, others argue that he more closely resembles his mother, Nivea. Several commenters have dubbed the boy “lil Lil Wayne” while many insist “He look like his mama not his dad.”

Either way, fans are glad to see the teen taking after his father with an apparent interest in fashion. Back in February, Lil Wayne opened up about having his first child at just 14 years old. This is only a year older than Neal is currently. While receiving Dr. Dre’s Global Impact Award, he shared that it was his mother who encouraged him. He explained that she wanted someone else around since he was on tour, and his father had passed away.

“Where I’m from? I walked into my mama’s room when I was 14, she asked me for a kid because my dad was killed,” he revealed tearfully. “And her son had just blew up and went on his first tour. And we didn’t know that b*tch was gonna be six months. When I came home she said, ‘Son, I can’t live in this house by myself. We gonna have to figure something out.’” What do you think of Lil Wayne’s son Neal going viral for his close resemblance to his dad? Are you shocked by how much the two look alike?

Do Ari Fletcher & Moneybagg Yo Have Kids? Socialite Clearly Has Pregnancy On The Brain

October 9, 2023 by newhiphopnews

For single people, the fall and winter are typically all about locking down a new partner to spend the colder months getting cozy with. Of course, those who are already in relationships use this time to strengthen their bond too, though that can sometimes lead to pregnancy. As we approach the midway point of October, it looks like Ari Fletcher has baby-making on the brain, and she wasn’t afraid to publicly admit it on Twitter this afternoon (October 9).

“I been kind of feeling like I want a baby but I just don’t wanna be pregnant for that long,” the reality star wrote. In addition to spending nine months carrying her future child, Fletcher also has reservations about how her body would change. She’s invested plenty of money and time into perfectly sculpting her figure and obviously has reservations about all of that effort going to waste. As you may recall, Fletcher was only in her early 20s when she and G Herbo welcomed their son, Yosohn. In the time since the black-haired beauty’s body has continued to change as she steps into womanhood.

Ari Fletcher Speaks on Having More Kids

Some followers suggested that Fletcher consider surrogacy, which would certainly solve her fears of weight gain. Last year, the mother of one hinted that she and her current beau, Moneybagg Yo, were expecting, though she later revealed that she suffered a miscarriage. After taking some time to heal from that trauma, it seems Ari could be ready to try and expand her family again.

Despite her desire to bring a child into the world with Moneybagg Yo, it seems unlikely that we’ll ever see the rapper and Ari Fletcher tie the knot. Because he has an abundance of baby mamas, the influencer has expressed her reluctance regarding marriage and how that might impact her financially due to his child support agreements. Read more about that at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

DaBaby Reflects On Spending His First $1 Million

October 8, 2023 by newhiphopnews

DaBaby recently stopped by the 2023 BET Hip Hop Awards, where he caught up with HipHopDX. The rapper opened up about how he spent the first $1 million that he made from his rap career, revealing that his first priority was taking care of his mother and his two daughters.

“First thing I did was buy my estate, you know what I mean?” DaBaby explained. “I got something there for my daughters that can’t nobody take away from them. And it’s just like Wonderland. It’s my version of Neverland. Actually I got my mama a crib first, then I did that. And I just reinvested in myself, period. I got all the camera equipment that they shoot your favorite television shows and favorite movies with.”

DaBaby Speaks On The Early Days Of His Career

Though he had a lot of good things going for himself at the time, he claims that he was navigating some things in his personal life that he’s glad to have gotten past. Luckily, he had the fruits of his labor to look forward to once he was past those obstacles. “I pretty much started a film production company the entire time while I was running the label – while I was one of the biggest stars at the label that I was signed to,” he continued.

“So I had a lot of things going on all at the same time while I was dealing with all my personal issues a lot of people ain’t know I had going on. So it’s just a blessing to come out on the other side of all the bullsh*t, all the negativity and still have all that other sh*t that I established and worked towards right there eye to eye with me.” What do you think of DaBaby spending his first $1 million on a home and building a film production company?

Blueface Wants “Generational Wealth” For Jaidyn Alexis & Their Two Sons

October 1, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Long gone are the days of the conventional, all-American two-parent household. Instead, we’ve been seeing an increasing number of blended families as co-parenting picks up in popularity among exes. One modern example of a star who’s living life on his own terms is Finesse2tymes, who’s currently celebrating the exciting news that both of his girlfriends are pregnant. Elsewhere, Blueface has also been expanding his family, though his transition from having one to two baby mamas hasn’t exactly gone over so well.

After a photo of his youngest son, Chrisean Jr.’s genitals appeared on the “Thotiana” artist’s Twitter page, he’s been in serious hot water with both his Cr*zy In Love co-star and her fans. Of course, Blue previously denied that the post came from him. Instead, he’s claiming that his phone was stolen and his social media accounts were hacked. The California native appears to be trying to put the drama behind him, instead turning his attention to his high school sweetheart, Jaidyn Alexis, and their plans for the future.

Blueface Shares His Plans for the Future

Me an Jaidyn got the same mouthes to feed so it only make sense we make generational wealth together

— blueface (@bluefacebleedem) October 1, 2023

MILF MUSIC

— blueface (@bluefacebleedem) October 1, 2023

“Me [and] Jaidyn got the same [mouths] to feed, so it only [makes] sense we make generational wealth together,” Blue declared on Saturday (September 30) afternoon. Minutes later, he sent out another tweet celebrating his MILF Music label, which has only signed Alexis so far. Just months into her career, the mother of two has already put out catchy singles like “Stewie,” “Workout,” and “Post Opp,” and her other half appears to be laser-focused on helping her reach her full star potential.

While Blueface has his sights set on setting the two sons he shares with Jaidyn Alexis up for success, his mother, Karlissa Saffold, has been busy trying to play matchmaker for the 26-year-old. Despite the fact that he only just welcomed his third child into the world, she’s already suggesting that Megan Thee Stallion would be the perfect third baby mama for her son. Read more about that at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Flavor Flav has recently unveiled an intriguing revelation about his family ties within the hip-hop world. In an exclusive interview with HipHopDX, he shed light on his lesser-known connection to some of the iconic members of the Wu-Tang Clan. The interview was conducted during the Black Music Coalition event in Beverly Hills, California on Sept. 24. Flavor Flav shared some captivating insights into his lineage and a memory with the late Ol’ Dirty Bastard (ODB).

“In the Wu-Tang Clan, I have three blood family members that a lot don’t even know,” he told HipHopDX. “RZA, GZA, and ODB. ODB was my cousin.” As the interview delved deeper into the surprising connection between Flavor Flav and ODB, he went on to recount a cherished memory from their last meeting.

Flavor Flav went on to detail a memorable encounter that took place in Aspen, Colorado, just one week prior to the untimely passing of the enigmatic ODB. “The last time that I was with ODB was in Aspen, CO. We did a gig together, and this was one week before he passed away,” he explained. “It was never a convo to have me part of the group, because they were always doing their thing and I was always doing my thing. But then we came together and did our thing.”

Flavor Flav’s revelation adds an unexpected layer of depth to the intricate tapestry of relationships and connections within the hip-hop community. His last meeting with ODB in Aspen serves as a reminder of the unpredictable relationships and memories that occur in the world of music, uniting artists from different corners of the genre for unforgettable moments in time.

Dwyane Wade Gets Candid About Letting Go Of Zaya Wade’s Future In Basketball

September 25, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union are raising a beautiful family and all of their kids are very talented and poised for success in the future. Having two superstar parents who have seen it all in their lives, like Dwyane and Gabrielle, is an amazing perk to have. However, it can also be a con. When kids have celebrity parents who have excelled in their respective fields, society, and sometimes the parents, expect them to follow in their footsteps. That is something that Dwyane was dealing with himself.

One child that he felt was destined for the NBA was his then-son, Zion. Wade and Siovaughn Funches gave birth to him on May 29, 2007. But, Zion then changed her name to Zaya in 2019 and came out publicly as trans one year later. With that change, Zaya has been pursuing a career as a runway model and she is already making strides. For any parent, having a child transition can be a tough thing to accept, but Dwyane spoke with glee and truthfulness about supporting Zaya.

Dwyane Wade Speaks The Honest Truth: Listen

A post shared by HOLLYWOOD UNLOCKED (@hollywoodunlocked)

In the clip above, Wade is speaking with ESPN’s Shannon Sharpe on his Club Shay Shay podcast about letting go of his plans for Zaya. His close friends, LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony, have kids who are on track to reach the NBA. Those were his aspirations for Zaya but, as Wade said, “Then I got to meet my child.” He continues candidly, “And a lot of people like to talk about Zaya’s transition, but to me, Zaya hasn’t transitioned into anything. She’s but a kid, and now becoming a young adult.” He is fully embracing her daughter’s life choices and she is killing it right now in the fashion industry at just 16 years old.

What are your initial thoughts on Dwyane Wade speaking about his daughter, Zaya Wade? Why do you think it is hard for some people to accept other people’s choices to transition? How do you feel about this situation as a whole? We want to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your thoughts and opinions in the comments section below.

Shanquella Robinson’s Family Claims Tubi Series Exploited Her Death, Hits Creator With Cease & Desist

September 16, 2023 by newhiphopnews

In October of last year, Shanquella Robinson’s family was left devastated, after the 25-year-old student was found dead in a rental property in Mexico. Robinson had gone to San José del Cabo with a group of people she believed to be friends, but things took a left turn only one day into the trip. She was said to have died as an unfortunate result of alcohol poisoning, however, an autopsy later suggested that the group wasn’t telling the full story.

Robinson was found to have sustained severe injuries to both her neck and spine ahead of her passing. A video later surfaced online, showing her being brutally beaten by one of the women she had traveled with. The footage further ignited preexisting speculation about the group’s involvement in Robinson’s death. A recent episode of a Tubi series uses elements of her tragic passing as a plot. Now, amid the process of grieving the loss of their loved one, Robinson’s family is firing back.

Street Legal Allegedly Uses Elements Of Shanquella’s Story

A post shared by Brown Girl Grinding (@lorenlorosa)

Robinson’s family has now served the creator of the series, Street Legal, with a cease & desist letter. They allege that Dennis L Reed II exploited the young woman’s story without permission. “Anyone portraying Shanquella as anything other than a victim of a crime and her travel mates as anything other than complicit in her murder is helping bury the truth about what happened,” a statement on behalf of the family reads. “We’re not gonna stand by and allow that there is still a path to justice in this case when the State Department gives Mexico authority to extradite the accused back to Mexico to be prosecuted.”

“Street Legal is a fictional crime series,” Reed’s team says. “The characters and events of this film are fictitious. Any similarities to actual events or persons, dead or alive, are entirely coincidental. The series follows twin defense attorneys Justin and Jordan whose parents’ criminal past catches up with them. The disclaimer is set forth before each episode.” What do you think of the similarities between the Street Legal episode and Shanquella’s story?

Russell Simmons Says He Can’t “Unlove” His Daughters Or Kimora Lee Simmons

September 15, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Earlier this year, Kimora Lee Simmons took to social media, accusing her ex-husband Russell Simmons of abusing her and their daughters. “This man has been threatening my kids’ lives,” she explained, “We won’t be bullied, threatened, or afraid.” She went on to share a screen recording of him shouting at their daughter, Aoki, during a FaceTime call. They further accused him of being emotionally abusive and full of “rage.”

He later apologized for his actions on social media. “DEEPLY sorry for being frustrated and yelling,” he wrote. “But know this… there are no conditions… for sure I love you guys more than I love myself.” The music executive added, “God is testing you a little bit, it’s ok, be strong.” Now, he’s taken to the internet again to share another statement about his family. He made it clear that despite the accusations, he continues to love his daughters and his ex-wife, claiming that there’s no way for that to change.

“There is absolutely no way for me to unlove my daughters or their mother for that matter,” he wrote. “I love my daughters unconditionally and that will never change.” Clearly, Russell Simmons hasn’t let the accusations impact his feelings towards his family. With that being said, social media users are now calling him out. Many point out that his words don’t appear to align with his actions.

Simmons’ Tweet follows his daughter Aoki’s recent Teen Vogue cover story, in which she says that she doesn’t regret exposing her father. “Part of it was already out there,” the 21-year-old explained. “There were reasons I thought it was reasonable to publish because it was playing out in, like, a silent bubble.” What do you think of Russell Simmons’ recent Tweet?

The Kardashian Family Brings Kourtney’s Daughter To Beyoncé’s Concert After Her Hospital Scare

September 5, 2023 by newhiphopnews

The Kardashian family has each other’s back during the toughest of times. Kim and Khloé Kardashian, the sisters of Kourtney Kardashian, performed a very kind gesture over Labor Day weekend. After Kourtney was rushed to a Los Angeles hospital near her home, it is safe to say that she needs time to relax and rest up. Knowing that, the Kardashian family seemed to be planning on attending one of Beyoncé’s shows during her three-day stint in California.

Kim and Khloé decided to bring Kourtney’s daughter, Penelope, out to experience one of the biggest performers in the world. In the photo above the clan is wearing their best silver get-ups per the Queen Bey’s attire request. The artist’s birthday was yesterday, and she has been asking her fans to wear silver to help celebrate the occasion. Kim’s daughter North was also in attendance.

Various Instagram stories were shared on Kim and Khloé’s accounts showing how much fun they were having. It is nice to see when the Kardashian family has got each other’s backs. Especially, after Kourtney’s brief hospital stay that forced her husband, Travis Barker, to rush home and postpone some of Blin-182’s shows in Europe. Kourtney continues to remain at home with her man, as the couple still has not disclosed the reasoning for her going to seek care.

What are your initial thoughts on Kim and Khloé Kardashian taking Kourtney’s daughter, Penelope, to the Beyoncé Renaissance World Tour show? Is this the most famous family in recent memory? Do you think we will ever find out why Kourtney had to be rushed to the hospital? We want to hear what you have to say about all of this.

Mia Jaye Dedicates Song To Young Dolph’s Killers: “How Could You Take A Father From His Family?”

September 4, 2023 by newhiphopnews

The death of Young Dolph took a hard hit on the world of hip-hop – especially the Paper Route Empire that he and Key Glock were building down south. Thankfully other artists in the “Water on Water” hitmaker’s community have since stepped up to ensure his legacy lives on. Outside of being a talented rapper, Dolph was also known to be a family man through and through. His fiancee, Mia Jaye, and their young children were devastated upon hearing news of his 2021 murder.

On Saturday (September 2), the widow decided to express herself musically on social media, sending out a message to his accused killers. In an acapella video posted to her Instagram Story, Jaye sang, “How could you take a father from his family and kids / Mr. Shooter, dear Mr. Shooter, what the f**k was you thinkin’/ You done f**ked up now.” The emotion in her voice is obvious. It also isn’t surprising considering the fashion designer has frequently spoken about the pain she feels while mourning Dolph.

Mia Jaye Has a Message for Young Dolph’s Murderers

A post shared by The Neighborhood Talk (@theneighborhoodtalk)

“I wish I could turn back the hands of time… Every fibre in my body wants Adolph back,” Mia tweeted last year, as HipHopDX pointed out. “My life was so complete… My children’s lives were so complete. As more time passes by I am constantly reminded of how incomplete our lives are.” There’s unfortunately nothing that can be done to bring the creative back from the dead. Thankfully he spent his short life working toward making a difference in his community.

As the time since Young Dolph’s sudden departure grows longer, those closest to the late rapper continue to keep his memory alive. Apart from Mia Jaye’s recent musical tribute, the couple’s 9-year-old son also recently launched a clothing line in honour of his father. Read more about that initiative at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.
