City Girls’ New Single Will Make You Want To Hit It Like A “Pinata”

The City Girls have had fans begging for new music since wearing out 2020’s City On Lock by blasting tracks like “P*ssy Talk,” “Jobs,” and “Rodeo” over the past few summers. Yung Miami and JT have long promised that they have more heat on the way, and they’ve finally made good on it this week by sharing two new singles. The first, “I Need A Thug,” hit DSPs on Thursday (June 8), while the latter, “Pinata” landed on New Music Friday after the pair premiered it at Rolling Loud California.

As expected, their latest release is filled with plenty of salacious bars, from the Caresha Please host rapping about needing a man who’s got a lot to offer in the bedroom as well as in his wallet. “Twenty pointers for Christmas / Gotta play for the Spurs or the Clippers,” Miami adds on her verse, seemingly hinting at a future romance with a famous athlete in her future.

Yung Miami and JT Let Loose on “Pinata”

On the chorus, JT sultrily rhymes, “Pussy make him do the cha-cha / He wanna eat it like a pinata” before later getting into some NSFW bars of her own. Both of the Florida duo’s new tracks follow their collaboration with Diddy on “Act Bad,” which also features an appearance from Fabolous. After a significant time without any new bops from the City Girls, the internet is making it clear that they’re happy to have more hits to add to their summer playlist. We still don’t know when the partners in rhyme plan to drop their next LP, but we’ll be sure to keep you in the loop with any updates.

Stream the City Girls’ latest single on YouTube above, or add it to your playlist on Spotify/Apple Music. Which track do you like better, “I Need A Thug,” or “Pinata”? Let us know in the comments, and check back later this weekend for more HNHH release recommendations.

Mary J. Blige Reflects On “Owing Hundreds Of Millions” In Taxes During 2016

Taxes can be intimidating enough for the average Joe, but in 2016, they became a nightmare for Mary J. Blige. At the time, the R&B diva was told by the Internal Revenue Service that she owed $1,198,161 in back taxes. While she certainly has made money over the years thanks to her various talents, her tumultuous divorce from Martin “Kendu” Isaacs that same year came as a result of him haphazardly spending her income, eventually inspiring her to write the song “Rent Money” from her most recent Good Morning Gorgeous album.

“I owed so much money I never thought I’d ever get out of debt,” Blige reflected during a panel at her second annual Strength Of A Woman festival this past weekend in Atlanta. “I’m out of debt now, but I mean I owed hundreds of millions of dollars in taxes. Now I have the wisdom, now I look at my payroll that’s not my money. My taxes are not my money … so I’m like, ‘Pay my payroll, pay my taxes, pay my ties, all of that money I don’t even wanna see it because it doesn’t belong to me,” the legendary lyricist continued.

Mary J. Blige Gets Candid About Money Struggles

According to Blige, no one in her camp was listening to her at the time. “When I was married I was like, ‘Pay my taxes, pay my ties,’ but they didn’t listen to me. He was in control of everything,” she noted of Isaacs. The singer has previously spoken candidly about their separation, which ultimately forced her to head out on tour again as she had no money to pay for the alimony from her divorce.

“By the time I got to the deposition and saw everything that he did, I didn’t have a dollar left. He spent everything, and he knew he spent everything but he was still asking me for more money,” she told The Breakfast Club in 2022. Read the advice that Mary J. Blige would give to her younger self now that she knows better at the link below, and make sure to check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Coi Leray Makes It Clap In Hot New “Bops” Music Video

As promised in the latter half of May, Coi Leray has returned today (June 6) with a long-awaited music video for her “Bops” single – one which includes no shortage of twerking from the 26-year-old. She’s been spending plenty of time shaking her booty as of late. We’ve seen her showing off on Instagram while promoting her quickly approaching sophomore album, COI. Elsewhere, she’s turning up the heat on stage, keeping her energy high while entertaining thousands of fans. Above all else, Leray continues to prove that she’s fully confident in her career as a superstar.

Apart from flaunting her body for the camera, we also see the Boston-born artist flexing some of her material achievements. Among them are Billboard Awards and RIAA plaques, which she happily made it clap in front of while wearing a tiny black thong. Later in the “Bops” video, Leray links up with friends at a party. The group eats plenty of cake and dances along to her hot single.

A post shared by Coi (@coileray)

Upon releasing the @uniqueexvisions-directed effort this afternoon, Leray turned to Instagram to not only share a teaser clip, but also thank the countless people involved in the production, filming, and her glam. The “Players” songstress herself has been labelled as the creative director of the project, proving that she’s highly involved in the details of her work outside of just writing rhymes and dancing along to them.

It remains unclear at this time if the rising star plans to drop another single before COI lands on June 23. We’ve already heard her teasing “Make My Day,” and despite the mixed reception, Leray seems optimistic about the future success of her sophomore release. Check out the salacious “Bops” visual for yourself above, or add the song to your playlist on Spotify/Apple Music. Which of Coi Leray’s 2023 singles has been your favourite so far?

Nicki Minaj Confirms October Release Date For Next Album

Nicki Minaj’s last studio album, Queen, made its debut way back in 2018, boasting a 20-song tracklist and features from the likes of Eminem, Labrinth, Lil Wayne, The Weeknd, and more. Since then, the Trinidadian has been busy raising her little boy, known as Papa Bear, with husband Kenneth Petty. 2022 saw her make an impressive string of singles and collaborations, but ultimately failed to produce an album. Thankfully, Minaj confirmed via Twitter on Monday (June 5) that her fifth studio LP will arrive later this year.

“10/20/23,” she wrote in a post this afternoon, officially marking October 10th as the debut date of the untitled project. “The Album 💿🎀,” Minaj added after, making it clear she’s coming in full force this fall. It remains unclear who she plans to work with on the upcoming effort, though we’ve already heard her team up with stars like Ice Spice, NBA YoungBoy, and Kim Petras so far this year.

Nicki Minaj is Coming This Fall

Prior to 2018’s Queen, Minaj began to gain notoriety back in 2010 with Pink Friday. That tracklist boasted fan favourites such as “Moment 4 Life” with Drake and “Fly” featuring Rihanna. In the time after that, she gave fans the Roman Reloaded cut of the project, followed by The Pinkprint in 2014. The latter only brought more success the fashionista’s way, specifically thanks to collaborations like “Only” and “Feeling Myself.”

The only solo effort we’ve heard from Onika so far this year is “Red Ruby Da Sleeze,” which earned her plenty of praise for expertly sampling a throwback favourite to spit her signature flow over. Elsewhere in the news, Nicki Minaj joined Sexyy Red on “Pound Town 2” at the end of last month. The remix boasts some of her most salacious bars to date, and after it dropped she penned a sweet message to the up-and-coming rhymer on Twitter. Read it for yourself at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Tokyo Toni Writes A “Pound Town 2” Verse On IG Live: Watch

2023 has seen no shortage of salacious music from our favourite female rap stars. Perhaps one of the wildest we’ve heard so far is Sexyy Red’s “Pound Town.” The rising star didn’t hold back when writing bars like “I’m out of town, thuggin’ with my rounds / My coochie pink, my booty hole brown.” The original track was so scandalous that even Nicki Minaj was almost hesitant to hop on the remix. However, the mother of one decided to push her own boundaries. This led the duo to drop off “Pound Town 2” at the end of May.

For her part, the Queen of Rap came in with clever rhymes like, “Ayy, yo, Red, my name is Pink, I made him go get that ink / Let him eat that pretty p*ssy, now he keep trying to link.” She only gets nastier as the song continues, ending her verse with “I be twerkin’ on that d*ck, plus, I’m slurpin’ every drip / When I’m ridin’, choke his neck, or missionary, doin’ splits.” Since it dropped, the NSFW collab has gotten plenty of praise from fellow lyricists and fans. Among those hyping it up is Tokyo Toni, who’s even been penning a verse of her own.

While going Live on IG recently, Blac Chyna’s mom was clearly feeling herself while penning her contribution to the song. She didn’t give away any of what she’s put together so far. Nevertheless, by the way she was singing along to Red’s lyrics, it’s obvious that she’s had it in constant rotation this past week. Elsewhere in her stream, Toni dispelled rumours about Minaj being a diva, calling her a “sweet person” based on the interactions they’ve had.

Latto & Cardi B “Put It On Da Floor Again” For This Week’s “Fire Emoji” Playlist

Now that June is here, the smell of summer is wafting clearly through the air, and on our Fire Emoji update. At this time, many of our favourite artists are trying to get ahead of things by dropping off the song of the season to ensure it gets maximum exposure at the clubs and on the radio over the next few months. So far, one of the biggest standouts is Cardi B and Latto’s “Put It On Da Floor Again,” which finds the mother of two spitting one of the strongest verses we’ve heard from her in a minute.

Of course, there’s also the latest headline-making single from Gunna too. Titled “bread & butter,” the nearly four-minute-long track includes alleged disses aimed at Lil Baby and Lil Durk, however, the YSL artist has denied throwing shade at the former. As for fire collaborations, the latest from Moneybagg Yo and Future (“Keep It Low”), as well as Dave and Central Cee (“Sprinter”) both have our Fire Emoji seal of approval.

HNHH Fire Emoji Playlist

Following that comes LUCKI’s “NO BAP,” Saba and NO ID’s “hue_man nature,” and another joint from Bagg’s Hard To Love project, “Still.” Machine Gun Kelly is applying serious “PRESSURE” with his hot new single, and Metro Boomin’s skills continue to shine on the Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse soundtrack. While the full 13-track release is obviously a must-listen, our personal favourite is “Annihilate.” On that, the producer links up with Lil Wayne, Swae Lee, and Offset, all of whom come through with insect-themed bars.

Kid Cudi continues to step back into the spotlight with “PORCHE TOPLESS,” and Flo Milli doined forces with Trina and Maiya The Don to give us a shemix of “No Love.” Beneath that you’ll find more from Metro Boomin, as well as French Montana and Kodak Black’s “I Can’t Lie” collab. Stream this week’s full Fire Emoji update exclusively on Spotify above. Are there any new arrivals you think we should’ve added? Let us know in the comments, and check back on Sunday to find more release recommendations on our R&B Season playlist.

Megan Thee Stallion On New Music: “Right Now I’m Focused On Healing”

The past few summers have seen Megan Thee Stallion wilding out with reckless abandon in honour of Hot Girl Summer. In 2023, however, she’s switching things up to instead focus on healing. Today (May 30), InStyle dropped a short and sweet interview with the Houston native, in which she revealed that she doesn’t plan on dropping any new music until she’s taken sufficient time to recover from her past traumas, as well as the general overwhelm of living a celebrity lifestyle.

“Fans can expect new music when I’m in a better place,” she told the outlet during their exclusive chat. “Right now, I’m focused on healing.” From the looks of things, this period of self-care includes getting back out into the dating world. While many fans thought Thee Stallion and Pardison Fontaine were still together, she and European soccer star Romelu Lukaku fueled dating rumours while holding hands at a teammate’s wedding. Obviously, nothing has been officially confirmed, but Thee Hotties are happy to see the “Big Ole Freak” hitmaker exploring options after her trial with Tory Lanez allegedly caused problems between her and Pardi.

Megan Thee Stallion Talks Healing and Future Releases

“The music and entertainment industry can be a grind, so it’s important to take time off and avoid burning out,” Megan also told InStyle. “Life is all about balance.” Seeing as she took several months out of the spotlight at the start of 2023 before stepping back outside into her formal glory, it’s safe to say the multi-talent is becoming a pro at this part of superstardom.

Elsewhere in her interview, the brunette beauty shared her tips for keeping her ’90s-inspired stage makeup perfectly in place, particularly during the oh-so-sweaty summer season. Who would you like to see Megan Thee Stallion collaborate with when she’s back in album mode? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Beyonce’s Next “RENAISSANCE” Remix Collaborator Is Rumoured To Be Ariana Grande

The time between Beyonce’s Lemonade and RENAISSANCE albums was filled with near-constant nagging for new music from the BeyHive. They’ve quieted down since she dropped the latter project last summer. However, some are still begging the mother of three to share the project’s visuals. To this, she promptly reminded them, “A Queen moves at her own pace, bitch!” She may not have delivered on the RENAISSANCE music videos just yet, but Bey has come through with a ton of surprises since embarking on her world tour earlier this month.

The Houston native revealed via Instagram recently that she’ll be expanding her business empire into the world of hair. It remains unclear exactly what products we’ll be seeing from Beyonce. Seeing as she’s well-known for having consistently fabulous locks, it’s safe to say she’ll make a ton of money. Speaking of cash – she and Jay-Z reportedly paid $200M of just that for their new record-breaking California mansion. It’s been dubbed “ugly” and like a “prison” by some, though it’s hard to deny the impressive architectural work.

Beyonce Continues to Surprise Fans on the RENAISSANCE Tour

Of course, Queen B couldn’t stop there. A few weeks back she tapped Kendrick Lamar to join her on the “AMERICA HAS A PROBLEM” remix. Several Twitter users have expressed that they’d also like to hear TDE’s Doechii on the track, but just as many are pleased to hear from Kung-Fu Kenny for the first time in a minute. The Hive wasn’t exactly expecting anything else from the Destiny’s Child alum to top all of that, but rumour has it she’s got another major collaboration on the way.

According to @ThePopTingz on Twitter, Beyonce will be joined by “The Way” songstress Ariana Grande on an updated version of “PLASTIC OFF THE SOFA.” The song has become a RENAISSANCE fan favourite, and would surely only be enhanced by the former child star’s vocal talents. Would you be interested in hearing another remix from Bey? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for more music/pop culture news updates.

Sexyy Red Reacts To Heartwarming Message From Nicki Minaj After “Pound Town 2” Collab

If there’s one thing Nicki Minaj is always gonna do, it’s show support for an up-and-coming artist she believes in. We saw this recently with her “Princess Diana (Remix)” collaboration with Ice Spice, but that’s not the only verse the Queen of Rap was willing to hand out this spring. This New Music Friday (May 26), she joined Sexyy Red and Tay Keith for “Pound Town 2,” which features some of Minaj’s most salacious bars in recent memory.

After allowing the response to the single to die down, Sexyy Red reposted an adorable message from the mother of one on her Instagram. “Barbz!!! Omggggg!!!! I’m so excited about this dope new collaboration. I ain’t get this ratchet in a minute chile!!! ENJOY!!!!!!” Minaj began. “I met with Sexyy Red and found her to be so down to earth and sweet. I couldn’t hear myself on this song at first but once I let go and decided to just have fun with a bad b!tch, I ended up LOVING how it came out!”

In her own caption, Red wrote back, “Thank you @nickiminaj this made me blush lol. I love you bih, [I don’t know] what [y’all be] thinkin’ about her sayin’ she mean.” The rising rap diva cautioned her followers not to believe the gossip online, revealing that the “Moment 4 Life” artist is “sweet and very nurturing.” On top of providing her new friend with a fire verse, Minaj apparently also gave her “great advice that [she’s going to] remember foreva.”

Other features we’ve heard from the Trinidadian so far in 2023 include “Alone” with Kim Petras, “WTF” alongside NBA YoungBoy, and of course, her own “Red Ruby Da Sleeze” single, which she recently shared an accompanying music video for.

Starr Gyal Accuses Mellow Rackz Of Stealing, Calls Her “The Worst Prostitute In History”: Watch

Mellow Rackz may appear to be living the dream after signing with Young Money a while back, but according to Starr Gyal, looks can be deceiving. The latter starlet took to her Instagram Story this weekend to call the “What I Want” hitmaker out, publicly labelling her “the worst prostitute in history.” Starr went on to savagely say, “You are a disappointment to our ancestors. How the f*ck you f*cking all these rappers and you ain’t even get a song?!”

“So you gotta resort to stealing because yo’ p*ssy can’t get you no… You see my p*ssy get me tings! I ain’t gotta steal and look like a motherf*cking clown! Do better!” the social media starlet continued to lash out at Mellow. Elsewhere on her Story, Starr admitted that others advised her against trusting the Florida native, but she instead relied on her “tendency to see the good in people.” She included receipts of DMs from others who have apparently been victimized by Rackz, as well as the mother of one’s personal message to her after seeing the posts for herself.

Starr Gyal Shares Her Thoughts on Mellow Rackz

“Lie to me. Got me for $119K on a car she crashed, $72K in back rent,” one person wrote in a DM to Starr. “Destroyed my house,” they added. “Was lying to me about having a $3M contract. Not including money for shopping for her shows. All lies. In total, she got me for $322K. You should see how she left my house.” Another person claims to have taken Mellow in when she was homeless, resulting in them also being taken advantage of. “If anyone DM you about her owing money, DM me. I need it for my lawyer. So far over 30 people DM me about her stealing,” they urged Starr.

While the Punani artist didn’t share the entire message she received from her new enemy, it obviously begins with an obscenity. “[Please] tell her she can’t afford to DM me!! Stop stealing,” Starr Gyal wrote when sharing a screenshot of the drama. Do you believe the allegations arising against Mellow Rackz? Let us know in the comments, and check back later this weekend for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.
