Fat Joe Calls Chris Brown “The 2Pac Of 2024” Amid Quavo Beef

by

Earlier this week, Fat Joe took to Instagram Live to weigh in on all of the high-profile rap beef going on these days. He commented on Drake’s feud with almost everyone, for example, calling Kendrick’s “Like That” verse with Future and Metro Boomin “the original.” Since that release, however, there’s been another feud brewing between Chris Brown and Quavo. The two have taken various shots at one another over the past couple of weeks, referencing past flings, allegations, and more. According to Fat Joe, Chris Brown would be pretty tough to beat.

“Of course, the 2Pac of 2024 has to be Chris Brown. Chris Brown is considered an alien. If you playing basketball, he’ll bust your a**. If you sing against him, he sing better, he dance better. If he gotta rap, he raps,” he explained. “Like, that’s battle rap. Chris Brown, that’s the one I been listening to.”

Fat Joe On Rap Beef

While the 2Pac comparison is pretty controversial, many others agree that Chris Brown’s latest diss was impressive. He unleashed on the former Migos member on “Weakest Link,” claiming to have slept with Quavo’s ex Saweetie while they were still together. “You f*cked my ex-ho, that’s cool, I don’t give no f*ck, lil n***a/ ‘Cause I f*cked yo’ ex when you were still with her, b*tch, I’m up, lil n***a.” He even said that when his groupmate Takeoff passed away in 2022, “everybody really wished” it had been him.

Cam’ron, 50 Cent, and many more think he came out on top. Others continue to root for Quavo, despite Brown claiming his last diss “don’t even need a response.” What do you think of Fat Joe’s take on rap beef? Are you surprised that he compared Brown to 2Pac? Do you agree with him or was that a stretch? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Joe Budden Thinks J Cole Can Fix His Reputation By Dissing Kanye West

by

Joe Budden thinks that J Cole can mend the damage done to his reputation for apologizing to Kendrick Lamar by dissing Kanye West. He explained on the latest episode of his eponymous podcast that he hopes the Dreamville rapper fires back at West for trolling him on his “Like That” remix, last weekend.

“This moment is J Cole’s free parking,” Budden began. “I told y’all that J Cole was gonna have to find somebody to kick his ass and it couldn’t be nobody chump and small. There is no better person than Kanye, the n***a that you been had smoke with, the n***a that been had smoke with your OG, Hov, whose now on a record saying some sh*t about you. I know that you’re home with the sage. You’re saging yourself. I know that this beef sh*t is not in your spirit but if you were to wake up one day in a different mood, now’s the time. Kill him. Make an example out of this non-rapping n***a. It’ll be easy too. It’ll be easy.” He concluded: “I think that’s the reprieve that he needs. I think that solves all J Cole’s problems.”

Cole apologized to Kendrick Lamar at Dreamville Festival for dissing him on the song, “7 Minute Drill,” which he’s since removed from streaming services. Afterward, Kanye West rapped on the “Like That” remix: “Y’all so outta sight, outta mind / I can’t even think of a Drake line / Play J. Cole, get the pussy dry / Play this shit back a hundred-thirty times.” Cole previously dissed Ye on his 2016 song, “False Prophets.”

Rick Ross & His New Girlfriend Party On Boat Amid Drake Feud

by

As of late, Rick Ross has been wrapped up in an online feud with none other than Drake. This was recently prompted by the latter’s “Push Ups” diss track. For the most part, Drizzy went after the likes of Kendrick Lamar, Metro Boomin, and more, but Ross did catch a couple of strays. On the track, the Toronto-born performer criticized him for jumping into rap beef at his age. He also suggested that all of Ross’ chart-toppers were thanks to him.

This has resulted in the two trading various jabs publicly, and headlines for whatever shade they throw the other’s way. This week, however, Rick Ross decided to take a much-needed break to step out with his latest love interest, Paige Imani. In various fun clips and photos posted on her Instagram Story, they’re seen cruising around on a boat. Despite the whole Drake debacle, they looked unbothered as can be.

Rick Ross & Paige Imani “Having So Much Fun” Despite Beef

They took some shots, danced, and more. Imani even showed off what appears to be a new tattoo on her neck of Ross’ first name, William. Fortunately, it doesn’t look like the new couple will be letting any drama get in the way of their good time, no matter which direction it’s coming from. On top of Rozay’s rap beef, he and Imani have been subject to quite a bit of criticism for showing off their romance. This is largely due to the fact that it was only a couple of months ago that he parted ways with Cristina Mackey.

They dated for around six months before calling it quits, with Mackey confirming the news at the beginning of March. What do you think of Rick Ross stepping out with his latest love interest, Paige Imani, amid his feud with Drake? Do you think they make a good couple?

by

Kim Kardashian is reportedly done with her and Kanye West’s feud with Taylor Swift following the release of the singer’s new album, The Tortured Poets Department. On the track, “thanK you aIMee,” Swift seemingly throws shade at Kardashian, accusing her of bullying, and reflects on healing from their beef. The capitalized letters in the title spell out “KIM.” “She’s over it and thinks Taylor should move on,” a source told PEOPLE. They added that Kardashian “doesn’t get why [Swift] keeps harping on it. It’s been literally years.”

On “thanK you aIMee,” Swift sings: “All that time you were throwin’ punches, I was buildin’ somethin’ / And I can’t forgive the way you made me feel / Screamed ‘F— you, Aimee’ to the night sky, as the blood was gushin’/ But I can’t forget the way you made me heal.” She also admits “I changed your name,” implying she’s not actually referring to someone with the name Aimee.

Kardashian and Swift’s feud stems from the release of Kanye West’s 2016 song, “Famous,” on which he raps: “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex/Why? I made that b*tch famous.” Swift denied giving her blessing for the lyric, which prompted Kardashian to release edited footage of the phone call between West and Swift.

Taylor Swift Seemingly Disses Kim Kardashian

During Swift’s profile for TIME’s 2023 Person of the Year, she reflected on the incident. “You have a fully manufactured frame job, in an illegally recorded phone call, which Kim Kardashian edited and then put out to say to everyone that I was a liar,” she said. “I moved to a foreign country, I didn’t leave a rental house for a year, I was afraid to get on phone calls, I pushed away most people in my life because I didn’t trust anyone anymore. I went down really, really hard.” Be on the lookout for further updates on Kim Kardashian and Taylor Swift on HotNewHipHop.

Charlamagne Tha God Goes Off On Kanye West, Reveals He’s Been Hating On Drake For Years

by

Charlamagne Tha God discussed Kanye West’s ongoing feud with Drake during the latest episode of The Breakfast Club. In doing so, he revealed the Vultures rapper has been hating on Drake for longer than fans may realize. In particular, he recalled one instance when Ye slammed Drake and Virgil Abloh during an interview years ago.

“Kanye West is the leader of the legion of lame,” Chalamagne began. “What a hating ass human. What type of man sits around and says we were all energized by the elimination of another man? This man is so miserable and has never dealt with whatever hurt and pain he’s feeling and he just wants to project it onto other people. I don’t even want Kendrick to respond no more. On ‘Like That,’ he clowned Drake and Cole for cliquing up. Don’t you be a part of the legion of lame, Kendrick. Future, you neither. Run from Kanye. Metro what are you doing? All of y’all should be running from Kanye West. Have you not read the 48 laws of power? Avoid the unhappy and the unlucky. You can die from somebody else’s misery. Kanye made the whole thing corny. It was entertaining until he brought his jealous, envious ass into the picture. So lame.”

Charlamagne continued: “By the way, he’s been hating on Drake. When I interviewed him back in the day when we was walking through the hills… he was hating on Drake and Virgil [Abloh] then, talking about they took the culture from him. And this is when he was up. This is when Yeezy when booming and he was still hating because he’s an unlucky, unhappy, hating ass human. We shouldn’t even give him no energy.” West discussed his issues with Drake during an appearance on Justin Laboy’s podcast, The Download, over the weekend. He explained that the “elimination of Drake” is energizing himself and others. He also shared a remix of Metro Boomin and Future’s song, “Like That,” on which he targets the Toronto rapper.

Serve ya’ master, n**ga/ You caught a little bag for your masters didn’t ya’, lifetime deal, I feel bad for n**gas/ Y’all so outta sight outta mind, I can’t even think of a Drake line/ Play J.

Suge Knight Says Drake’s Use Of A.I. 2Pac Is A “Bad Look,” Calls Out Snoop Dogg For Late Rapper’s “Downfall”

by

Suge Knight criticized Drake’s use of A.I. to create a verse from the likeness of 2Pac and Snoop Dogg on his latest Kendrick Lamar diss, “Taylor Made Freestyle.” Not only did he think using ‘Pac as a “pawn” was lame, but he also blamed Snoop Dogg for the late rapper’s demise and said putting them on a song together is a “bad look.” Knight discussed the track during the latest episode of his Collect Call podcast.

“Young people do what young people do. It’s y’all turn, but regarding the homie ‘Pac, he wasn’t no chump,” he said. “Putting him on a song and dissing Kendrick [Lamar] for everybody entertainment — that ain’t how it go. Then putting him on a song with Snoop, who was a part of his downfall and exit, ain’t ever a good look. ‘Pac was a king on that chessboard. He never was a pawn, so he can’t make him be a pawn now.”

Snoop Dogg also reacted to the track, sharing a video of himself on Instagram seemingly confused by the drama. “They did what? When? How? Are you sure? [Sigh] Y’all have a good night,” he said after the song dropped. “Why everybody calling my phone, blowing me up? What the f*ck— what happened? What’s going on? I’m going back to bed. Good night.” Additionally, 2Pac’s brother, Mopreme Shakur, told TMZ he wasn’t a fan of how Drake weaponized the late rapper for a beef.

Bey seems like the type to have her team call his team and they send the song that way. It’s clear Taylor and Post were actually in the studio together.

Future & Metro Boomin Clowned By Drake Fans Over Tour Sales

by

Drake fans are clowning Future and Metro Boomin on social media for the sales of their upcoming We Don’t Trust You tour. According to Touring Data, the duo has sold 177,318 tickets across North America with 43.13% sold. The tickets for the tour went on sale on Friday.

Drake fans were quick to attack the two in the replies to the post. “Don’t y’all see why streams don’t matter? Touring is where the real money in music is. Your music can be at the top of the music charts but doesn’t mean people actually care about you.” Others came to Metro and Future’s defense, suggesting it’s only been a couple of days since the shows went on sale. “43% in 2 days means everything is almost paid for, it’ll be all profit by May/early June. This is good for a non-pop hiphop tour,” one user wrote.

50 Cent says he’s going to have to come up with “some heat” if he wants to fire back at Chris Brown after the singer dropped the fiery diss track, “Weakest Link,” last week.

50’s fans mostly agreed with his take in the comments section. “Quavo need a Rihanna feature,” one user wrote. Another fan argued: “Quavo ain’t built for these type of situations he’s a party vibe rapper. His best bet is to let the hype die down and drop a collab with offset.”
