Drake Surprises Fans Waiting To Get Wristbands For His Show

August 19, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Drake and 21 S*vage’s “It’s All A Blur” tour has had plenty of show-stopping moments, viral antics, and surprises at each stop. However, the trek isn’t keeping all of its most special moments restricted to what happens once you walk into the venue. Moreover, a group of fans were waiting deep into the night and almost into the next morning on Friday (August 18) to get wristbands for Saturday’s San Francisco show. Said bands grant access to a special standing area. Thanks to new social media clips from this incredibly lucky group, we now see how much the 6 God appreciates their support.

Furthermore, Drake emerged from a black SUV to say hi to these folks, who all expressed shock and awe. They took pictures together and even got into some friendly banter after overcoming the sheer surprise. In fact, the OVO mogul remarked that he lost his voice, but promised it would be back by the time the show started. “You better have it for tomorrow,” a fan told him, and he assured her that he would with a hug.

What’s more is that this priceless interactions for the lucky crew may have found inspiration in another fan’s chronicles of waiting in line overnight. One user posted a video narrating how she slept over on a curb for about 12 hours just to be the first one to get the special wristbands. Not only that, but none other than Drake saw the video and reposted it on his Instagram with a special message. “Babe you can’t tell me what we had was love when this type of love exists in my life,” the 36-year-old wrote.

Meanwhile, there’s obviously no shortage of Drizzy and Slaughter Gang die-hards and casuals alike who experienced this.

We’ll see what else this duo brings us on the road, and we’re sure it’ll be something that fans appreciate.

Boosie Badazz Needs Toilet Paper, Enlists The Help Of Fans

August 19, 2023 by newhiphopnews

In a new clip, Boosie Badazz is shown at what appears to be an airport, as two fans approach him. When the fans ask the rapper to pose for photos with them, however, he lets them know that it’s not a good time. Boosie doesn’t shy away from informing them that he needs to use the bathroom first, but he couldn’t do it without their help. He explains that he is in critical need of toilet paper, asking them to go him find some. As one of the fans agrees to go find him toilet paper, he lets them know that once he gets it, he’ll “take a picture with everybody.”

It’s clear that Boosie had bigger things to worry about in the moment, but it seems like the duo probably ended up with a photo eventually. Unfortunately, this isn’t the only sh*tty situation the 40-year-old has found himself in as of late. Earlier this week, it was revealed that a judge refused to dismiss the performer’s recent gun charges, meaning that he’ll likely have to go to trial.

Boosie Badazz Asks Fans To Help Him Find Toilet Paper

Boosie was arrested back in June following a court appearance, and later released on bond. Amid his legal troubles, Boosie says that he’s been getting a lot of hate online. Luckily, he doesn’t appear to be fazed by the backlash. “I HOPE U DONT THINK YALL HURTING ME, CAUSE YOURE NOT, YOUR HELPING ME!!” he wrote on Instagram last week. “EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON. I NEEDED TO SEE YALL TRUE COLORS. IM A SOULJA IM BUILT FOR THIS.”

It’s clear that the Louisiana native isn’t letting the drama hold him back. He’s hot off the release of his new album, Goin Thru Some Thangs, which he dropped earlier this week. He didn’t do much in terms of promotion for the LP, but regardless, loyal fans are sure to give it a listen. The album boasts one feature from Playbwoi Tha Great, as well as a track dubbing Kodak Black “Ungrateful.”

Finesse2tymes Claims To Be 50 Cent, Yo Gotti & Gucci Mane Hybrid, Fans Troll Him

August 18, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Finesse2tymes is among the many Memphis stars that burst onto the scene in the 2020s so far. However, he’s still not among the most beloved, or at least, that’s what the recent response to one of his Instagram Stories suggests. As a hard-working and focused MC, though, he’s sure to beat these allegations soon, and they certainly won’t slow his hustle down. Still, many fans thought he was overshooting when he named various great rappers and credited them as influencing his hybrid style. Rather than think about whether his music sounds like theirs in concept, they went for his throat on the quality and status end.

“If you put 50 cent, Doe b, Yo Gotti, and Gucci mane all in one pot, U get Finesse2tymes,” the 90 Days artist wrote on social media. In addition, he included a fire emoji and a thinking emoji, and users definitely made their thoughts clear. “More like Bart Simpson and manny fresh mixed in da pot,” one commenter savagely wrote, with another adding “And the lie detector determined that was Cap” with laughing emojis. However, there were still many fans who came to his defense or just disagreed with him with no disrespect, just from a style angle.

Finesse2tymes’ Clowned-Upon Instagram Story

“Hate is a strong Drug first yall was on his D*** now he winning to much now yall hating,” one user posited. Another wrote “I Can See The Other Ones .. He Gone Have To Show Me Some 50 Tho I Dont See It Lol.” “He more lyrical than all them tho,” a fan expressed. While plenty of the most popular responses were negative, isn’t that true of most Internet discussions these days? Regardless, his proclamation at the very least hopefully raises expectations for material on par with these artists in the future.

Meanwhile, the 31-year-old is still a controversial figure these days in hip-hop, though it’s more for his antics and legal trouble than anything sinister. With a couple more hits under his belt, he can eschew comparisons and focus on becoming his own artist. He certainly has the skill and potential to do so, so we hope this response doesn’t get to his head. For more news and the latest updates on Finesse2tymes, keep checking in with HNHH.

Doja Cat Says She “Feels Free” After Losing Followers Over Recent Argument With Fans

August 16, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Doja Cat says that she “feels free” after seeing hundreds of thousands of fans unfollow her on social media. The comments come after she reportedly lost over 250,000 followers in two days due to arguing with her fans online. All-in-all, she’s down 800,000 since the incident. The drama began when she took issue with her followers for calling themselves “Kitten” or “Kittenz.”

“Seeing all these people unfollow me makes me feel like I’ve defeated a large beast that’s been holding me down for so long and it feels like I can reconnect with the people who really matter and love me for who I am and not for who I was,” Doja Cat posted on her Instagram Story, Wednesday. “I feel free.”

Despite gearing up for the release of a new album, Doja recently admitted during an interview with Harper’s Bazaar that she’d be willing to take a break from music to explore acting as a possible career. She even admitted she’d like to try her hand at stand-up comedy. “[Stand-up] is something I’ve definitely considered,” she told the publication. “I actually went onstage recently with Craig Robinson. He’ll get on a piano and just play songs, but he’ll do it in his own Craig Robinson, funny-ass way. I would love to do movies that I believe in. I would have to stop the music for a minute. But I would be down to immerse myself in acting for a certain period of time. I love comedies and action films. I want to learn martial arts and be in a film like John Wick.”

As for the new album, she also revealed in the interview that the working title is currently Scarlet. She described it as “introspective,” but not “to where it becomes boring.” Doja has yet to give the project a release date but be on the lookout for further updates on HotNewHipHop.

The Game Throws Back Fan’s Bra On Stage: “I Don’t Be Doing No Tricking!”

August 15, 2023 by newhiphopnews

The Game was not having it when a fan tried throwing their bra on stage during one of his recent concerts. In a clip circulating on social media, The Game stops his performance as a woman throws her large red bra on stage.

From there, he brings up fans doing similar antics with Drake before making it abundantly clear he won’t be having any of it. “I don’t be doing no tricking!!!” The Game told the audience as he threw the bra back into the crowd.

Over the weekend, Drake actually asked his fans to stop throwing bras on stage out of respect for his son, Adonis. “Look, to be honest with you, I can’t talk about titties tonight in L.A. because my son is at the show for the first time,” Drake said on stage. “So we’ve got to keep this real PG tonight. Y’all keep your bras on.” Check out the clip of how The Game handled the situation below.

The Game Throws Bra Back At Fan

The comments came after Drake recently made headlines for his reaction to seeing a particularly large bra be flung at him on stage. “36G?” he said excitedly. “Locate this woman immediately.” Eventually, Drake did locate the woman, who ended up being Veronica Correia out of Rhode Island. Correia later confirmed that Drake reached out to her via Instagram DM while on the Club Ambition podcast. “He slid up on a [Instagram] Story and laughed at one, simply sent a laughing face. And I took a day or two to respond because I just didn’t know what to say,” Correia said. “So I just liked it, and then I left him for like a day. Then I wrote out this paragraph, basically thanking him for the experience, an awesome show, and then I told him I own the coffee shop in Cumberland and asked if he liked coffee and how he likes it.” Drake went on to share some words of advice for the woman.

Travis Scott Sends Thankful Message To Fans For Inspiring Him Amid “UTOPIA” Hype

August 12, 2023 by newhiphopnews

UTOPIA season is still underway, and it seems like Travis Scott is feeling grateful, inspired, and jubilant every step of the way. Moreover, a lot of his die-hards absolutely loved the new album, and while there are some detractors, its massive commercial success is certainly a strong indicator of that. Of course, that goes to show how important fans and listeners are to an artist’s success and ability to move forward in their careers. As someone who has always shown love to them, the Houston native knows this well. Especially considering the hype around UTOPIA, he recently took to Twitter with a special message for his supporters.

“One time for the fans,” Travis Scott wrote on the social media platform. “F**k that, yall family just overly thankful for yalll. Y’all keep me inspired. I forever just wanna create and do things to maximize life experiences and hopefully ur able to find inspiration and joy in it. That can help u one day build ur own saga.” In addition, it’s important to consider that La Flame has a lot to thank his fans’ loyalty for.

Travis Scott Thanks His Fans

One time for the fans fuck that yall family just overly thankful for yalll. Y’all keep me inspired. I forever just wanna create and do things to maximize life experiences and hopefully ur able to find inspiration and joy in it. That can help u one day build ur own saga

— TRAVIS SCOTT (@trvisXX) August 12, 2023

Sure, there’s the obvious reasons: streams, sales, support, fame, and everything that comes with being one of the biggest rappers in the world. But his fanbase in particular also has to reckon with the deaths of those among them at the Astroworld Festival in 2021, a tragedy that may forever taint Travis Scott’s career. While he somewhat addressed it on UTOPIA, his lack of accountability and deep reflection or remorse rubbed many the wrong way. As such, to still have a massive following after this is worth much more than any of us can imagine.

Whether he deserves that following after Astroworld is another question, and a far too complicated one to definitively answer. Some completely disregard his responsibility and follow blindly, whereas others’ love for him fuels their frustration, disappointment, or their hope and well-wishes for him to repent for it and rise above it. Regardless, the 32-year-old knows how important his fans are right now, and we just hope he keeps that in mind in many more live settings, media appearances, and the rest of his career.

August 10, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Yesterday, Cardi B took to Twitter to share an all-natural selfie with her fans. In the caption of the picture, she explained how her hair journey is going. “My hair has grown sooooo much!!! Let me know if y’all want a video my my HOMEMADE hair oil… handmade by ME!” it reads. Fans in the comment section were impressed and some wanted to know how they could achieve the same effects. One popular comment in particular honed in on the hair oil. “I want a video of the homemade hair oil. But honestly you should bottle it up and sell it ,it will do numbers.” This comment and others like it sparked controversial responses to her post.

“Black Women wanting hair growth tips & oil from her is crazy,” read a popular quote tweet of the post. But a similar and even more popular critique got even more detailed. “Y’all really don’t see how a LATINA selling “hair growth oil” to BLACK women could be misleading? A bunch of fried eggs.” Despite the humor of the comment, Cardi B herself took it seriously. She clapped back with a tweet of her own taking the fan to task over how long she’s been showing off her hair to fans. “IM NOT EVEN SELLIN ANYTHING YOU DUMBA*S B*TCH…I been showing my hair growth journey to my fans since 2016!” Cardi’s response tweet reads.

Earlier this week, the microphone that Cardi B threw at a fan during a crowd was sold at auction. After starting the bidding at just $500 the microphone received over 120 bids and when the dust settled it sold for almost $100k.

Ultimately, Cardi was lucky to dodge charges in the microphone throwing incident. In the days following the event a fan who was hit by the mic claimed she wasn’t even the one who threw a drink on Cardi to cause the throw in the first place. After being investigated for battery the case was closed without any charges being filed. What do you think of Cardi B’s comments toward fans who criticized her? Let us know in the comment section below.

Tory Lanez Fan Livid With Megan Thee Stallion, Claims She Took Time Off Work To Support Him In Court

August 8, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Tory Lanez was making a ton of headlines yesterday as his sentencing hearing took place. People were anticipating his sentence to come down swiftly. However, that is not at all how things played out. Instead, the judge had numerous people speak during the proceedings. The entire hearing played out throughout the afternoon and it never concluded. According to Meghann Cuniff, the judge decided that Tory’s sentencing would continue today. This subsequently kicked off another wave of anticipation.

Moreover, we even found out that numerous people sent letters to the judge, vouching for Tory. For instance, Iggy Azalea was one of the people who reached out. Overall, this led to a ton of backlash. Although, it doesn’t seem like Iggy cares about your criticisms. As for Tory’s fans, they are hoping for a light sentence. Some of them were even at the hearing yesterday. This includes the woman below, who was recently posted on The Neighborhood Talk Instagram page.

As you can see, this young fan is absolutely livid with Megan Thee Stallion. The woman claimed that she hates Meg and that supporting Tory is costing her a lot of money. She says that she had to take time off work in order to come to the courthouse. Moreover, she lives pretty far away, which made it a long trek. In her eyes, without Meg, this whole situation would have never happened. It was a bizarre rant that invoked a whole lot of victim-blaming. Whether or not this woman will return for day 2 of Tory’s sentencing, remains to be seen.

Tory Lanez is currently facing 13 years in prison, at least that is if the prosecution gets its way. The judge has said that Tory’s actions after the shooting will be considered when giving the sentence. Let us know what you think of the proceedings, in the comments below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.

August 7, 2023 by newhiphopnews

NLE Choppa is being roasted on social media for sharing a picture of his bare feet on Instagram. After showing his fans a photo with Kai Cenat, a video of himself performing on stage, and more, he concluded the post with a random picture of his foot.

“For My 12Th Birthday I Turned 13, I Promise,” Choppa captioned the post. Fans were not happy with the inclusion of the foot picture. One commented: “Bro what happened to you u just be dropping feet or meat pics instead of music.” Another added: “If it’s not half naked pics it’s feet pics he must be stopped.” One more asked: “Choppa you my favorite rapper but bro yo feet so long.”

It’s far from the first time NLE Choppa has caused a stir on social media. Last month, he faced criticism online for his music video for “It’s Getting Hot,” which flips Nelly’s 2002 hit, “Hot in Herre.” When fans labeled it one of the worst songs of the year, he replied on Twitter: “Gotta listen to the whole song first to even give an opinion. This only a few seconds of the song lol [wink emoji].” Check out Choppa’s latest controversy on Instagram below.

In addition to defending himself online, Choppa has also made headlines for standing up for his fellow artists as well. He recently came to the defense of Sexxy Red as fans have ridiculed her. “Man, I keep seeing the hate that ya’ll have on my girl Sexyy Red,” he said in a video on Twitter. “I’m just a real supporter, a real fan, I love her energy and I love her music personally. Man, ya’ll need to stop doing people like that, treating people like that. Ya’ll not gone always hear something that ya’ll accustomed to or use to. Ya’ll need people like Sexyy Red to create a balance from serious to shit that you can have fun to.”

Doja Cat has been making some interesting decisions as of late. Overall, she is someone who does not seem to care what the fans think of her.

This led to some unique reactions, with some claiming that she had gone off the deep end. “She’s really lost her mind,” one person wrote.
