Erykah Badu Calls Out Fans Leaving Show Early: “I’m Singing!”

June 23, 2023 by newhiphopnews

At a recent performance, Erykah Badu took the opportunity to call out fans she spotted leaving the show early. She had her band stop the music so she could address the attendees. “Excuse me, where are y’all going?” she shouted from the stage. “This is rude,” Badu said, “motherf*cker I’m singing!” The artist then rolled right back into the performance, seemingly unfazed by the confrontation. Badu is currently on her “Unfollow Me” tour alongside Yasiin Bey, fka Mos Def, and the awkward moment took place at a stop this week.

“What if they just had to use the bathroom,” an Instagram user asked in the comments section of the uncomfortable clip. “Keep in mind she’s an artist,” another notes, claiming that Badu is “sensitive.” “Cause sit TF BACK DOWN,” a different fan jokes, adding laughing emojis.

The incident was far from the first time Badu spoke her mind. Just earlier this month, she called Blueface “trash,” telling the universe to “do [it’s] thing.” Her post came amid ongoing drama between Blueface and the mother-to-be of his child, Chrisean Rock. She shared her message in an Instagram Story of Blueface pictured alongside several women. Blueface’s mother clapped back, telling her, “Girl you was just calling Tyrone and paying his cousins and homeboys way don’t and ain’t nobody said nothing to you.”

Last month, it was announced that Badu would be joining the cast of an upcoming movie on Netflix, The Piano Lesson. She’ll be joining Samuel L. Jackson and John David Washington, who star in the film. The Piano Lesson is an adaptation of a play by August Wilson of the same name. It’s one of ten play in Wilson’s The Pittsburgh Cycle, which highlights the Black experience in 20th Century Pittsburgh. The film doesn’t have an official release-date yet, but fans are eager to see Badu make her musical cameo appearance.

Cardi B Superfan Allegedly Started Petition To Kick Nicki Minaj Out Of Hidden Hills

June 23, 2023 by newhiphopnews

According to reports, a Cardi B superfan was the one to start a recent petition to get Nicki Minaj out of Hidden Hills. The petition was reported at the time to have been created by Minaj’s neighbors. It emphasized her husband, Kenneth Petty’s, status as a sex offender. “Petty is a level 3 sex offender, convicted for the attempted rape of a 16 year old girl, and has a high likelihood to reoffend,” it states. It goes on to claim that Petty was found guilty of murder. The petition also notes that him living there could lower the property value of neighborhood homes due to “safety concerns.”

“It would lead to children and women being a target,” the petition claims. The Hidden Hills Community Association reportedly had no idea about the petition. Records also reveal that the woman who started it doesn’t even live in the neighborhood. Beverly Bardan, who was said to have created the petition, appears to actually be a Cardi Stan Twitter account. The account confessed to starting the petition at the end of last year.

“No, I didn’t celebrate Christmas Instead,” the account wrote, “I printed these flyers warning the residents of Hidden Hills that s*x offender Kenneth Petty will be moving in.” The account included photos of flyers labeling Petty as “a dangerous predator and killer.” “I DO plan on mailing them out,” they added, “It has a QR code for a petition to keep Nicki Minaj AWAY from her CO-OWNED Hidden Hills house!”

The account also wrote, “We, as Nicki antis, can turn the residents of Hidden Hills AGAINST Nicki and her pedo husband moving in, hurting her assets in the process!” The Cardi superfan has posted several troubling Tweets highlighting her mission to “end” Nicki Minaj “from the inside out.” Cardi B has not yet responded to the claims. Nicki, on the other hand, just shared a gif that could potentially reference the situation. She accompanied it with the caption “AhhhhhHaaaaaaaa!!!!!!”

Tasha K Offers Sarcasm-Filled Apology To Cardi B Fans

June 22, 2023 by newhiphopnews

The longstanding beef between Tasha K and Cardi B has no end in sight, whether because of them or because of fans. Moreover, blogger and pop culture influencer probably dealt with a lot of hate from the standom following their legal battle- and clearly still does. However, in her most recent Instagram post, she suggested that they are ridiculously blaming her for a lack of a new album from the Bronx MC. Furthermore, Tasha expressed as such in a sarcastic and mocking apology directed specifically at supporters of Cardi’s music. In it, she also spoke on a wealth of other issues that might be affecting her slow return to full-length projects.

“I wanna send a sincere apology out to #bardigang,” Tasha K wrote. “It’s my facultas to why y’all don’t have a 2nd album. She’s been in court with me for 6 years distracted from her purpose. Now going on 7. Atlantic is broke and won’t help pay for a 2nd album, offset in court fighting to release an album and my sis-in-law sold her rights to her catalog off too early in her career. Now there is no money to produce the album. She is constantly taking car insurance ads to keep the lights on and pay lawyers to continue to chase me down for money I don’t have.

Tasha K’s Hilarious Message For Cardi B Fans

“I’m so sorry for distracting yall queen!” Tasha K continued. “Between me & the surgeons we owe y’all a huge apology. Atlantic refuses to give her any money to produce a second album because they took such a loss on her first album that she is now stating to promote 6 years later. Again, I’m so sorry. It’s all my fault. But if you want music, real consistent music, please stream #barbieworld this Friday. #icespice is from where she is from and can give y’all the music y’all need instead of her giving yall a #TashaKalbum.”

Of course, her last statements are ironic considering that Nicki Minaj, who’s dropping “Barbie World” with Ice Spice this week, hasn’t dropped in a while either, though that will change soon. Regardless, the “Tomorrow 2” hitmaker is in a similar situation, so we’ll see how that fuels the fans if both artists drop in 2023. Let us know what you think of this loaded apology down in the comments below. Also, check back in with HNHH for the latest news and updates on Tasha K and Cardi B.

Kodak Black Swipes And Eats A Fan’s Food In The Club

June 21, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Sometimes, a man’s gotta eat, and Kodak Black was in that situation at a Florida nightclub recently. Lo and behold, a fan’s meal was sitting there for him to gorge on. So the 26-year-old rapper went ahead and noshed on an unsuspecting fan’s meal, with said fan recording the event. Between mouthfuls, the fan asks Kodak if the food is good, to which he replies by rubbing his stomach and doing a little dance. Luckily, the ladies were cool with him going to town for their nice-looking dinners. Plus, they have a memory they’ll have forever.

Weirdly, this isn’t the first time Kodak Black has been a bizarre eater. In 2021, he ate salad right off the dining room table, causing multiple fans to gag. This most recent encounter, which happened this Tuesday, is another snapshot of Kodak being a little more than odd. But if the fans continue to “eat it up” (pun intended), what’s to stop him from cashing in on his notoriety for a free snack again?

Kodak Black’s Hot Streak

Kodak Black has been busy. (And no, we don’t just mean him eating his fan’s food and dipping.) He wrote, directed, and starred in a short film entitled The Don, which is about a crime leader who comes to blows with old adversaries. This coincided with the drop of his latest album, Pistolz & Pearlz. The album has 21 tracks and ends his Atlantic Records contract. He’s been with the famed music producers since 2017, but now he’s moving on to Capitol Records. Kodak’s previous album, 2022’s Back For Everything, debuted at number two on the Billboard 200. It includes a certified Platinum hit in “Super Gremlin.”

He’s also going on tour with Lil Durk soon. The Sorry for the Drought Tour starts in Tampa this July and ends in Phoenix in September, with 27 total cities on tap. Lil Durk just released his latest album as well, Almost Healed. Together, the two rappers will have plenty of chances to make arenas and stadiums go wild. (And it gives Kodak more chances to eat fan food.)

03 Greedo Thanks Fans For Keeping Him Rich During Jail Stint

June 19, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Earlier this year 03 Greedo was released from prison after facing drug trafficking and illegal possession of a firearm charges. He didn’t waste any time getting back into the studio to record new tracks and back on the road playing shows for fans. In a recent video shared on Instagram by DJ Akademiks, Greedo thanked fans for their continued support. The video’s caption reads “03 Greedo thanks his fans for keeping him rich while he was in jail.” That description is no joke as he literally ends his speech mentioning directly that he appreciates fans keeping him rich throughout his sentence.

03 Greedo has had an incredibly busy 2023 for someone who began the year incarcerated. Shortly after the news broke that he would be released from prison, he surprise dropped his Free 03 mixtape. The project had features from KenTheMan, Drakeo The Ruler, and more. He followed that up in March with an absolutely massive new album called Halfway There. The 33-track, 100-minute project proved just how little time Greedo wasted getting back to making music. The tracklist has a ton of features from Maxo Kream, Ty Dolla $ign, Rich The Kid, Babyface Ray, and more.

03 Greedo’s Message To Supporters

In addition to his two projects, 03 Greedo has also popped up with guest spots on a number of other artist’s singles. He also tried to repair some burned bridges with other artists, in particular with J. Cole. Way back in 2018, Greedo said in an interview that J. Cole was “trash.” In a tweet he made he retracted the criticism and admitted that he was wrong all along.

Greedo was also part of a conversation about whether or not rap has an upper age limit. On the Million Dollaz Worth Of Game podcast he made the argument that if rappers hit 40 without making it, they should stop. While the hosts disagreed with that notion, it sparked a conversation online about the genres upper ceiling. What do you think of 03 Greedo’s message to his fans? Let us know in the comment section below.

June 19, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Bebe Rexha collapsed to the floor on stage during a hometown concert in New York on Sunday after a fan threw their phone at her. Rexha was performing on the Rooftop at Pier 17 for her Best F’n Night of My Life tour.

“Im good,” Rexha captioned a photo of herself with a black eye on Monday morning. Coi Leray commented on the post, “Still sexy af … I love you Bebe !!!,” with numerous heart emojis. Several other fans shared their support as well.

“We were all having a hell of a good time and so was Bebe, we were all having a blast, I mean who would even do that??? We hope you’re OK @BebeRexha.,” one user wrote on social media in the wake of the incident. Another fan wrote: “Bebe is literally one of the sweetest and most unproblematic people in the music industry she doesn’t deserve this… some of y’all really need to leave her alone omg.”

It appears that Rexha will be continuing on with her Best F’n Night of My Life tour despite the injury. For now, she’s still got shows scheduled at The Fillmore in Philadelphia, at The Fillmore Silver Spring in Silver Spring, Maryland, at the Tabernacle in Atlanta, and at the Hard Rock Live Orlando in Orlando, Florida in the coming weeks.

The phone incident isn’t the only issue Rexha’s had in recent months. Back in April, she complained on social media that TikTok suggests users search the phrase “bebe rexha weight” when typing in her name. “Seeing that search bar is so upsetting,” she wrote on Twitter at the time. “I’m not mad because it’s true. I did gain weight. But it just sucks. Thank you to all the people who love me no matter what.”

Beyonce Fan Auctions Off “Renaissance” Tour Sunglasses For £15K

June 15, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Beyoncé continues to showcase her seemingly endless generosity during her “Renaissance” World Tour. Recently, the pop icon shared the “AMERICA HAS A PROBLEM” remix with Kendrick Lamar and announced that she would be venturing into the hair industry. She has also been performing with her daughter, Blue Ivy Carter, on multiple stops of the tour. After a recent show in Barcelona, Spain, Beyonce surprised fans. After the concert, she stepped outside and personally handed out merchandise while expressing her gratitude for their support. A small group had the opportunity to interact with her and her security guard, Julius. The fans captured the heartwarming moment on camera.

The footage of Beyonce’s kindness gained attention on Twitter, with mixed reactions from users. While many praised the singer’s humility, some criticized fans for demanding photos while receiving their free gifts. Comparisons were made to Princess Jasmine from Disney’s Aladdin, highlighting the fans’ eagerness. In addition to this act of generosity, Beyonce set a new record in Spain. Her sold-out stadium show drew 53,000 attendees, making her the solo female artist with the highest concert attendance in Spanish history.

Beyonce Fans Have Mixed Feelings About The Sunglasses Being Auctioned

One Beyonce left her most recent tour feeling very fortunate. The fan is auctioning off a pair of sunglasses that the singer threw into the crowd during her performance at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The sunglasses are believed to be custom-made by luxury fashion brand Off White. The fan, whose name is Valentino, caught the glasses not once, but twice. Beyonce tossed the sunglasses into the crowd while performing her song “Diva.” They were initially confiscated by security. However, Queen B later threw them back into the crowd. Valentino, surprised to have caught the glasses a second time, is now auctioning them with an estimated value of £15,000 at Omega Auctions.

Off White sunglasses typically retail for around £200. However, the rarity of these sunglasses has driven up their potential value. The fact that they were likely designed specifically for Beyonce is a big selling point. Some fans have criticized Valentino for selling the sunglasses. They think that he should keep them and that it is a bad look to try and make money off of them. Still, others seem to understand the decision given the opportunity to make extra money. What do you think of the situation? Would you sell the sunglasses or keep them? Sound off in the comments below!

Kanye West And Bianca Censori Spotted During Hollywood Bus Tour

June 15, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Kanye West and his new wife Bianca Censori were recently spotted by a bus full of tourists on Rodeo Drive. The pair were driving in his bright yellow SUV, when they pulled up next to a Hollywood Bus Tour. Various fans on the tour shouted their support for the couple, who simply smiled back. Ye also rolled down his window briefly, flashing a peace sign at the bus. Hollywood Bus Tours wrote on Instagram, “We spotted Kanye West and his wife Bianca Censori cruising down The Sunset Strip in an Isuzu VehiCROSS on our Celebrity Homes Tour!” One fan told the rapper, “You are my favorite artist ever, seriously!”

Ye and Censori have been spotted various times in recent weeks, sporting some eye-catching attire. Ye was recently seen rocking a simple, all-black outfit complete with some questionable shoulder pads. His wife, on the other hand, appeared to wear a basic athleisure getup, along with a face covering. He’s also been seen recently wearing clothes that appear to feature Nazi symbolism. The rapper turned 46-years-old recently, and held a birthday party with Chloe Bailey, Ty Dolla Sign, and many more in attendance. Censori was photographed outside of the event holding hands with North West, Ye’s oldest child with his ex wife, Kim Kardashian. Partygoers were also served sushi, off of the bodies of nude women.

Earlier this month, Ye confronted paparazzi in Los Angeles who he claimed were following him. “Like, seriously bro, all of you motherf*ckers, stop following me!” The outburst was captured and later shared by TMZ. The rapper was reportedly on his way to church with his family when the incident occurred.

His DONDA documentary also leaked recently, and eager fans were able to get a glimpse behind-the-scenes of the making of his 2021 album. The leaked footage shows Ye threatening to remove Jay-Z from the album, working on “Junya” with Playboi Carti, and much more.

6ix9ine Listening To Gunna While On The Road, Fans Clown The Two

June 15, 2023 by newhiphopnews

When it comes to public favor among the rap fanbase, 6ix9ine and Gunna are not the highest-ranking names you’d think of. Still, with a lot of anticipation around the latter’s upcoming album, past single, and overall loyalty from his fanbase, it’s not surprising to see the former be the one to give him flowers and not the other way around. Moreover, as two figures associated as “snitches” within the game, any connection between the two is bound to cause fans to bring that link up. That’s exactly what’s happening right now as a clip of the rainbow-haired MC rapping along to the College Park rapper’s Drip Season 3 cut, “No Joke.”

“Gunna ft. 6ix9ine – snitch or drown,” one fan joked in the comments section of DJ Akademiks’ coverage of the clip. Another wrote, “They should drop an Album
‘The Rats.’” Still, the comments also showed that there’s plenty of support for the YSL artist’s music, despite his connection to that group falling under scrutiny. “Drip season 3 was amazing he can snitch one more time honestly,” a fan expressed on Instagram.

Gunna Gets Love From 6ix9ine

Regardless, there is certainly less of a hullabaloo around that side of things when it comes to 6ix9ine, mostly because it’s been so long since his “snitching.” On the other hand, a lot of eyes paid attention to his gym attack, which caused many within the hip-hop world to debate whether he deserved it or not. In any case, it’s provided a bit of a second wind for his musical career as well, given his Spanish-language singles that he’s dropped since. Whether you enjoy it or not is up to you, but the NYC native is nothing if not an entertainer that capitalizes on the attention surrounding him at any given moment.

Meanwhile, fan reaction to the “bread & butter” MC’s album announcement divided itself. Of course, there were a lot of people that expressed an inability to move past his alleged betrayal. Others don’t care about that at all and just want some good music from the 30-year-old. Whether you think his real-life actions are enough to impact your relationship with his music as a fan or not, there’s certainly a lot at stake both personally and career-wise for him. For the latest news on 6ix9ine and Gunna, stick around on HNHH.

Meek Mill Asks Fans Whether He “Fell Off”

June 14, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Meek Mill wants to know whether he “fell off.” The Philadelphia rapper asked fans for their honest opinions on the matter on Twitter, Wednesday. Meek described the move as a “social experiment.”

“Who think I fell off or don’t really think I got it with rapping anymore?….” Meek began in his tweet. “I’m fr I need answers and tell the truth I’m not taking it personal … I need to hear how people think before I do what I do! A social experiment! Answer if you a supporter of mines!”

Fans had mixed answers for Meek. One argued that he’s gotten lazy. They wrote: “@MeekMill is lazy now, probably have other personal things his focus on. The thing is are you going continue with rap on the old wave or are you going to adopt, to this new gen z music. You ready have to name, experience, the fans & billionaire’s friends. Leave a legacy.” A different user said that Meek has simply grown: “It’s all about growth my guy. To understand who don’t rock with you the same is to also understand that you’re not the same. In that sense you’ll never fall off. The ones who choose not to grow with you fall off.”

Others called on Meek to release more music to put the thought to rest. “Just stop the talk & drop. That’s how we ALL feel. We KNOW what you capable of. SHOW IT,” one fan replied. Another echoed similar sentiments: “You just gotta keep dropping albums in my opinion, with good rollouts, singles, videos and features.” Meek has yet to reply to any of the opinions.

Meek Mill Wonders Whether He “Fell Off”

Who think I fell off or don’t really think I got it with rapping anymore?…. I’m fr I need answers and tell the truth I’m not taking it personal … I need to hear how people think before I do what I do! A social experiment!
